THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 58/2003 of 19 December 2002 laying down the statute for executive agencies to                           be entrusted with certain tasks in the management of Community programmes(1), and in particular Article 3 thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)Regulation (EC) No 58/2003 empowers the Commission to delegate powers to the executive agencies to implement all or part of                              a Union programme or project, on its behalf and under its responsibility, in accordance with that Regulation.

(2)The purpose of entrusting the executive agencies with programme implementation tasks is to enable the Commission to focus                              on its core activities and functions which cannot be outsourced, without relinquishing control over, and ultimate responsibility                              for, activities managed by those executive agencies.

(3)The delegation of tasks related to programme implementation to an executive agency requires a clear separation between the                              programming stages involving a large measure of discretion in making choices driven by policy considerations, this being carried                              out by the Commission, and programme implementation, which should be entrusted to the executive agency.

(4)By Decision 2005/56/EC(2), the Commission created the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (hereinafter referred to as the Agency) and                              entrusted it with the management of Community actions in the field of education, audiovisual and culture.

(5)The Commission amended the Agency’s mandate on several occasions, extending it to cover the management of new projects and                              programmes in the field of education, audiovisual, citizenship and youth and subsequently replaced Decision 2005/56/EC by                              Commission Decision 2009/336/EC(3).

(6)In its Communication of 29 June 2011‘A budget for Europe 2020’(4), the Commission proposed to use the option of more extensive recourse to existing executive agencies for the implementation                              of Union programmes in the next multiannual financial framework.

(7)The Agency has demonstrated a high level technical and financial expertise in the management of Union programmes. Satisfaction                              surveys conducted as part of the first and second interim evaluations of EACEA (2009 and 2013) show that beneficiaries and                              other stakeholders believe that EACEA delivers a better quality of service as compared to previous arrangements (Technical                              Assistance Office). EACEA is able to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, which in turn provides staffing stability.                              The Agency continuously streamlines its internal operations to improve its efficiency and seeks to standardise approaches                              across programmes. It benefits from its status as a public body specifically created to manage programmes in the area of education,                              audiovisual and culture and this focus enhances the visibility of the EU programmes among stakeholders and the general public.                              The existence of a single entity managing a number of complementary programmes generates synergy effects in terms of visibility                              of EU action to the mutual benefit of all programmes. The *ex-post* control error rates are low for EACEA and well below the limit of 2 %. The second interim evaluation notes a steady improvement                              in EACEA’s technical and financial expertise which in turn is reflected in a general improvement in the Agency’s performance                              as observed in its KPIs.

(8)In terms of the cost comparison with the ‘in-house option’, the cost-benefit analysis carried out in accordance with Article                              3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 58/2003 found it would be more costly to manage the tasks at the Commission, by a margin of 23 %                              in net present value terms. The new programmes envisaged for delegation to EACEA are in line with the Agency’s current mandate                              and mission and represent a continuation of its existing activities. The Agency has built up competence, skills and capacity                              in the management of these programmes over several years. The new programmes would therefore benefit from EACEA’s accumulated                              experience and expertise in programme management, and resultant productivity gains. A shift to an in-house arrangement would                              be disruptive as most programmes have never been managed internally by the parent DGs, which lack the capacity to manage programmes                              in-house. Delegation of programme management to EACEA would thus ensure business continuity for programme beneficiaries and                              stakeholders. Delegation to EACEA will also continue to allow the Commission to better focus on its institutional tasks.

(9)In order to give executive agencies a coherent identity, the Commission has, as far as possible, grouped work by thematic                              policy area in establishing their new mandates.

(10)The Agency should be made responsible for implementing parts of the following new Union programmes and actions:-  Erasmus+(5); (successor to Lifelong Learning Programme(6), Youth in Action(7) and Erasmus Mundus(8), among others),
