INTRODUCTION









1.


This report analyses the European Parliament’s budgetary and financial management during the financial year 2020. It outlines the use made of financial resources and the events which had a significant influence on activities during the year.












2.


The report has been drawn up in accordance with Article 249 of Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), hereinafter referred to as ‘the Financial Regulation’. The analysis is based on the provisional accounts established by the Accounting Officer.




I.   OVERVIEW OF PARLIAMENT’S ACTIVITIES IN 2020









3.


The year 2020 was marked by the challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in fundamental changes to Parliament’s way of working. From the onset of and throughout the pandemic crisis, Parliament had to take often unprecedented decisions aimed at minimising the risk for Members and staff, while ensuring that the Institution remains in a position to continue its core activities, while also showing practical solidarity with the host community.












4.


Parliament has been able to ensure the above through its organisational resilience and ability to apply new working methods, in particular teleworking and remote meetings. As from mid-March 2020, Parliament’s administration went from an occasional teleworking scheme to teleworking being implemented between 70 % and 100 %, depending on the lockdown measure enforced and on the need of physical presence.












5.


Strasbourg sessions were suspended for the most part of the year and digitalised processes included the organisation of remote meetings and remote voting systems in plenary and parliamentary committees.












6.


The COVID-19 crisis led to substantial transfers within Parliament’s budget. While budgetary resources became available in some areas such as travel expenses, additional budgetary needs occurred in other areas — notably for information communications technology (ICT). Details are presented in section H and Annex III of this report.












7.


Throughout the year 2020, work on the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) 2021 — 2027 continued and an agreement could be reached end of 2020. Parliament gave its consent on 16 December 2020. Together with the MFF, the new Interinstitutional Agreement between the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management, as well as on a number of related aspects were agreed.












8.


With the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU (Brexit), the number of MEPs was reduced from 751 to 705 as from 1 February 2020. For the Liaison Offices, Brexit necessarily changed the situation in the United Kingdom. The Bureau decided to maintain Parliament’s presence in the United Kingdom through the London Liaison Office, equipping it with a new mandate, while confirming the closure of the Edinburgh Office at the end of 2020.












9.


The rationalisation and modernisation of key areas of Parliament’s Administration continued within the structure of the ‘Strategic Execution Framework’.












10.


Parliament's new financial management system was launched on 6 January 2020. Based on the S4 / HANA solution from SAP, it allows some 2 400 users to perform all day-to-day financial operations remotely, a novelty that has enabled the continuity of financial operations by teleworking.












11.


Throughout 2020, the administration continued the implementation of the Parliament’s ‘Building Strategy Beyond 2019’ as endorsed by the Bureau in April 2018.












12.


An important part of Parliament’s building strategy is the ADENAUER II building project in order to bring all Parliament services operating in Luxembourg under the same roof.












13.


The first part of this project (East Wing) was completed in October 2020. Staff began occupying the new building on November 2020. Works to construct the final part — the West Wing — are underway.












14.


As in previous years, the Committee on Budgets authorised in 2020 a mopping-up transfer for the pre-financing of the project. The part of this transfer dedicated to the ADENAUER II building project amounted to approximately EUR 63,35 million (see section III. H. on transfers). Following Recommendation 3 of the Court of Auditors Special Report 34/2018 on office accommodation of EU institutions, a detailed overview of the financing of the ADENAUER II building project is annexed to this report (Annex VIII).












15.


In Brussels, the decision to purchase the WIERTZ building allowed to complete another step of Parliament’s building strategy. It will further consolidate the real estate of the Parliament, underpin the interconnectivity of the central buildings and further contribute to improved security. This purchase was also subject of the aforementioned mopping-up transfer, amounting to EUR 74,9 million.












16.


The extension of the WAYENBERG nursery in Brussels was completed in September 2020 and the new facilities gradually put in use. The completion of this project increases the pre-schooling facilities at the disposal of Members, assistants and staff. WAYENBERG is the first passive building of the European Parliament.












17.


The strategic approach related to the implementation of Europa Experiences in all Member States was concretely reinforced in 2020 by the adoption by the Bureau of a comprehensive strategy and a clear timeline for the deployment of these facilities in all Member States by 2024.

H.   Transfers









27.


During the financial year, twelve C transfers (including what is termed the ‘mopping-up’ transfer) were approved in accordance with Articles 31 and 49 of the Financial Regulation. They totalled EUR 183 933 785, which is 9,0 % of final appropriations (in 2019: 18 C transfers accounting for 3,8 % of final appropriations). The increase in value is due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Parliament’s activities. The COVID-19 share in transfers for individual budget lines is detailed in Annex III; an overview per Chapter is presented in Annex IV.

The decrease of expenditure on Members of the institution (Chapter 1 0) is mainly due to the impact of COVID-19 on Parliamentary activities, especially reduced travel. Commitments on items 1 0 0 4 ‘Ordinary travel expenses’ and 1 0 0 5 ‘Other travel expenses’ lay EUR 30,2 million and 2,8 million below the 2019 level.












33.


Until 31 January 2020, 751 MEPs were elected to the European Parliament, as laid down in the Lisbon Treaty. The withdrawal of the UK as an EU Member State reduced that figure to 705 MEPs as of 1 February 2020, allowing room for possible future enlargements of the European Union. The MEPs’ index-linking of pay (see paragraph below on Chapter 1 2) had an opposite impact on expenditure. Overall, items 1 0 0 0 ‘Salaries’ and 1 0 0 6 ‘General expenditure allowance’ lay 6,4 million each below the 2019 level.












34.


All Members leaving Parliament after completing at least one year’s service are entitled to a transitional allowance. The period over which the transitional allowance is paid is determined by the Member’s total length of service in Parliament. As 2019 was the year of European elections and the constitution of the 9th legislature, commitments on item 1 0 2 0 ‘Transitional allowances’ lay in 2020 EUR 5,3 million below 2019.












35.


Expenditure on officials and temporary staff (Chapter 1 2) amounted to KEUR 679 166 in 2020, making it the largest spending category (accounting for 34,8 % of total commitments for 2020). The growth stems largely from the increase of ‘Remuneration and allowances’, which reflects index-linking of pay. In December 2020, pay for officials and other staff of the European Union was increased by 0,7 %, backdated to 1 July 2020. Also the prior year increase of 2,0 % with effect of 1 July 2019 contributed to the growth.












36.


Overall, committed appropriations within Chapter 1 4‘Other staff and external services’ amounted to EUR 150,6 million and increased by 1 % in comparison to 2019. Within this Chapter, the different expenditure items showed opposite developments. Expenditure on other staff — mainly contract agents — (Items 1 4 0 0 ‘Other staff — Secretariat and political groups’, 1 4 0 1 ‘Other staff — Security’ and 1 4 0 2 ‘Other staff — Drivers in the Secretariat’) increased by EUR 3,6 million due to index-linking of pay and increases in staff numbers. Items 1 4 0 4 ‘Traineeships, seconded national experts, exchanges of officials and study visits’ and 1 4 0 5 ‘Expenditure on interpretation’ decreased by EUR 0,8 million and EUR 5,4 million due to the impact of COVID-19. Item 1 4 2 0 ‘External translation services’ increased by EUR 4,7 million due to the increase of translated pages in 2020 as compared to the election year 2019.












37.


The overall increase of 14 % in commitments of Buildings and associated costs (Chapter 2 0) is linked to the project nature of expenditure under this category. Commitments under Item 2 0 0 1 ‘Lease payments’ amounted to EUR 63,35 million as compared to EUR 30,99 million in 2019. They concern the financing of The ADENAUER II building in Luxembourg — the most important building project of Parliament — via the so called ‘mopping-up’ transfer. Due to the impact of COVID-19 on Parliamentary activities, more funds could be made available for this project.












38.


The increase by 14 % to EUR 204 million for Data processing, equipment and movable property (Chapter 2 1) is linked to the COVID-19 impact and the need to digitalise processes and provide the infrastructure for distance-working.












39.



Chapter 3 0‘Meetings and conferences’ was with a reduction of 73 % (EUR 21,7 million) the relatively most impacted Chapter by the COVID-19 pandemic.












40.


The decrease of Chapter 3 2‘Expertise and information: acquisition, archiving, production and dissemination’ is mainly related to item 3 2 4 4 ‘Organisation and reception of groups of visitors, Euroscola programme and invitations to opinion multipliers from third countries’. Due to COVID-19, expenditure on this item was EUR 15,9 million less than in 2019.












41.


The decrease of expenditure relating to certain institutions and bodies (Chapter 4 0) is mainly due to the decrease of item 4 0 2 0 ‘Funding of European political parties’ by EUR 7 million as compared to the election year 2019.












42.


The decrease of expenditure relating to parliamentary assistance (Chapter 4 2) is mainly a result of reduced travel and training expenses of accredited parliamentary assistants (–EUR 8 million) due to the COVID-19 pandemic.












43.


Annexes III and IV provide detailed information on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on current year appropriations.
