· der bør kun stilles forslag til lovgivningsmæssige ændringer, hvor der er reelle administrative vanskeligheder.
· legislative changes should be proposed only where there are real administrative difficulties.
Jeg tilslutter mig helt og holdent disse kriterier.
I fully subscribe to these criteria.
Men jeg er ikke helt overbevist om, at Kommissionen har overholdt dem i fuldt omfang.
However, I am not entirely convinced that the Commission has strictly respected them.
Omfanget af de foreslåede ændringer er omfattende.
In particular, the extent of the proposed changes is very wide-ranging.
Der lader en tvivle om, hvorvidt forslagene virkelig er blevet begrænset til tilfælde, hvor der ikke findes alternativer.
This raises the question as to whether the proposals have really been limited only to cases where no alternative exists.
Endvidere udvides undtagelserne fra de generelle bestemmelser yderligere i Kommissionens forslag.
Furthermore, the exceptions to general rules are being extended further in the Commission's proposal.
På dette stadium må jeg begrænse mig til denne foreløbige analyse.
At this stage, I must confine myself to this preliminary analysis.
Detaljerne i de foreslåede ændringer undersøges med henblik på vedtagelse af en udtalelse fra Retten, som jeg er ordfører for.
The details of the proposed modifications are being examined with a view to adopting a Court Opinion for which I am Rapporteur.
Jeg håber, jeg får lejlighed til at forelægge denne udtalelse for COCOBU på et senere tidspunkt.
I hope that I shall have the opportunity to present this Opinion to the COCOBU at a later date.
Der er allerede blevet arrangeret et møde til den 7. december med COCOBU's ordfører om revision af finansforordningen, Ingeborg Grässle, med henblik på en drøftelse.
A meeting has already been arranged for 7 December with the COCOBU Rapporteur for the revision of the Financial Regulation, Mrs. Ingeborg Grässle, in order to exchange views on the matter.
På hvilken måde kunne de nationale revisionsinstitutioner bidrage til at sikre korrekt anvendelse af EU-midler i deres respektive lande?
What role could the national audit institutions play in helping ensure the correct use of EU funds spent in their countries?
Såfremt de nationale revisionsorganer var en del af Fællesskabets interne kontrolsystem, ville Rettens opgave være langt lettere.
If, at the Community level, the national audit institutions were part of the Community's internal control system, the task of the Court would be made considerably easier.
Det er imidlertid ikke tilfældet, da de nationale revisionsorganer har et specifikt ansvar i forhold til deres nationale parlamenter.
However, this is not the situation as the national audit institutions have specific responsibilities vis-à-vis their national parliaments.
De betragter derfor ikke sig selv som del af et internt kontrolsystem, da de har en rolle som eksterne revisorer i deres hjemlande, og på grund af deres rapporteringsordninger.
As such, they do not see themselves as part of an internal control system, given their role as external auditors in their own countries and their reporting arrangements.
På det seneste seminar om forbedring af den finansielle forvaltning blev det gjort helt klart, at de nationale organer ikke ville acceptere at være en del af Fællesskabets interne kontrolsystem.
At the recent seminar on improving financial management, it was made quite clear that national institutions would not accept being part of the Community's internal control system.
Den generelle holdning fremgik helt klart af en udtalelse fra formanden for den nederlandske revisionsret: "det er sandsynligt, at de nationale revisionsorganer vil modsætte sig ethvert forsøg på at integrere dem i EU-rammer i en underordnet rolle i forhold til Revisionsretten".
The general view was put quite succinctly by the President of the Dutch Court of Auditors, when she said: "national audit institutions are likely to resist any attempt to integrate them into the EU framework in a subordinate role in relation to the Court of Auditors".
Revisionsretten erkender disse realiteter.
The Court recognizes these realities.
Det betyder imidlertid ikke, at Retten ikke samarbejder med de nationale revisionsorganer.
That is not to say, however, that the Court does not cooperate with the national audit institutions.
Som fastlagt i traktaten har Retten faktisk samarbejdet med dem i mere en 25 år under hensyntagen til de forskellige parters respektive ansvar.
Indeed, as provided by the Treaty, the Court has been cooperating with them for more than twenty five years, taking due account of the respective responsibilities of the different parties.
Der flyder nyttige informationer begge veje.
Useful information flows both ways.
De nationale revisorer ledsager ofte Rettens revisorer eller deltager i Rettens revisioner.
National auditors frequently accompany the Court's auditors or participate in Court audits.
Endvidere foretages der fra tid til anden fælles revisioner.
In addition, joint audits are undertaken from time to time.
For at lette samarbejdet blev der oprettet et Kontaktudvalg af ledere af de nationale revisionsorganer, og dette bistås af et udvalg af forbindelsespersoner.
To facilitate cooperation, the Contact Committee of the heads of the national audit institutions was set up and this is assisted by a committee of liaison officers.
Så vidt muligt og under hensyntagen til internationale revisionsstandarder søger Retten at bygge videre på de nationale revisionsorganers arbejde for at undgå spild i form af dobbeltarbejde.
Insofar as is possible and respecting International Audit Standards, the Court seeks to build on the work of the national audit institutions and avoid wasteful duplication of effort.
De nationale revisionsorganer har også en interesse i at sikre, at EU-midler ikke misbruges inden for deres nationale område.
National audit institutions also have an interest in ensuring that there is no abuse of EU funds within their national territories.
Ethvert misbrug kan medføre, at medlemsstaterne skal bidrage mere til EU-budgettet, end det ellers ville have været nødvendigt, og dette bidrag kommer i sidste ende fra skatteyderne i medlemsstaterne.
Any abuse can lead to Member States having to contribute more to the EU budget than would otherwise be necessary and this contribution comes, ultimately, from national tax-payers.
Enhver afgørelse om EU-institutionernes struktur er politisk, og EU-lederne gav sidst udtryk for deres holdning i forfatningsudkastet.
Any decision concerning the structure of an EU institution is a political one and EU leaders last expressed their view in the draft constitution.
Som nuværende medlem af Retten finder jeg det upassende at svare.
As a serving Member of the Court, I would consider it inappropriate to comment.
Som bekendt har Retten truffet foranstaltninger til at forbedre effektiviteten ved at omstrukturere revisionsgrupperne og indføre et system med A- og B-punkter til Rettens møder.
The Court, as you know, has taken measures to improve its efficiency by restructuring the audit groups and introducing a system of 'A' and 'B' points for Court meetings.
Vi befinder os i en situation, der konstant er i udvikling, og i forhold til revisionserklæringen, den aktivitetsbaserede budgettering, edb, kommunikation og "køreplanen" revurderer Retten, hvordan den bedst kan udøve sit mandat.
We are in a constantly evolving situation and, given developments in relation to the DAS, activity based management and budgeting, informatics, communication, and the 'Roadmap', the Court is re-evaluating how best to carry out the mandate it has been given.
Jeg vil i fuldt omfang deltage i den proces.
I will play my full part in that process.
I henhold til traktaten skal medlemmerne udføre deres hverv i fuldkommen uafhængighed.
There is a Treaty obligation on Members to be completely independent in the performance of their duties.
Traktaten foreskriver endvidere: "Ved udførelsen af deres pligter må de ikke søge eller modtage instruktioner fra nogen regering eller noget andet organ.
The Treaty further stipulates: "In the performance of these duties, they shall neither seek nor take instructions from any government or from any other body.
De afholder sig fra enhver handling, som er uforenelig med karakteren af deres hverv."
They shall refrain from any action incompatible with their duties".
Da jeg påtog mig mit første hverv som medlem af Revisionsretten i 2000 afgav jeg et højtideligt løfte for Domstolen om at overholde disse traktatforpligtelser.
Upon entering into my first mandate as a Member of the Court of Auditors in 2000, I gave a solemn undertaking before the Court of Justice to fulfill these Treaty obligations.
Jeg har efterlevet dette løfte og vil fortsat gøre det, så længe jer er medlem af Retten.
I have honored that undertaking and will continue to do so as long as I am a Member of the Court.
Alle de afgørelser, jeg har truffet som led i mit arbejde som medlem af Retten, er baseret på traktaten, finansforordningen og andre EU-retsakter, der er relevante for den pågældende afgørelse.
All the decisions I take in relation to my work as a Member of the Court are based on the Treaty, the Financial Regulation and all other laws of the European Union which are relevant to that decision.
Jeg udfører mine pligter alene i Fællesskabets interesse og under overholdelse af Rettens forretningsorden.
I carry out my duties solely in the interests of the Community and respecting the Rules of Procedure of the Court.
Kan De give Europa-Parlamentet oplysninger om Deres seneste og nuværende forretningsmæssige, økonomiske og politiske interesser og poster og om eventuelle andre forpligtelser, som kunne kollidere med Deres fremtidige pligter?
Could you provide the European Parliament with details of your recent and present business, financial and political interests and positions, and any other commitment that might clash with your prospective duties?
I den umiddelbare fortid har jeg ikke haft, og for indeværende har jeg ikke nogen forretningsmæssige, økonomiske eller politiske interesser, poster eller forpligtelser, som kunne kollidere med mine pligter som medlem af Revisionsretten.
I have not had in the recent past, nor do I have in the present, any business, financial or political interest, position or commitment that might clash with my duties as a Member of the European Court of Auditors.
Jeg har været medlem af det irske parlament (Dáil Éireann) fra 1975-1997.
I was an elected member of Dáil Eireann (the Irish Parliament) from 1975 until 1997.
I den periode havde jeg på forskellige tidspunkter følgende hverv:
During that period I held the following positions at various times:
· statssekretær (Parliamentary Secretary) i ministeriet for industri, handel og energi

Siden marts 2000 har jeg været medlem af Revisionsretten - se venligst svar på spørgsmål 11 for nærmere detaljer.
Since March 2000, I have been a Member of the European Court of Auditors - please see reply to Question 11 for details.
Mit cv, der er vedlagt, indeholder nærmere detaljer om mit professionelle liv til dato.
My curriculum vitae , which is attached, provides further details of my professional career to date.
Da jeg ankom til Retten fik jeg ansvaret for en af sektorerne i Rettens Landbrugsgruppe.
Upon my arrival at the Court I was given responsibility for one of the sectors in the Court's agricultural Group.
Sektoren vedrørte revision af visse garantiudgifter inden for landbruget.
The sector was concerned with the performance audit of certain agricultural guarantee expenditure.
Jeg havde bl.a. ansvaret for revisionen af udgifter til sukker, tobak, bananer, tørfoder, frugt og grønsager.
I was responsible for the audit of expenditure on sugar, tobacco, bananas, dried fodder, fruit and vegetables, inter alia .
I min korte periode som medlem af denne sektor vedtog og offentliggjorde vi særberetning nr. 20/2000, der vedrørte sukkermarkedet og som vakte en del opmærksomhed.
During my short time as Member in that sector, we adopted and published Special Report No 20/2000 on the Sugar market which received a lot of attention.
I denne beretning påviste vi store problemer i Fællesskabets intervention på dette marked og gik ind for en revurdering og ændring.
In that report, we pointed out major problems with Community intervention in that market and advocated reappraisal and change.
Det glæder mig, at Fællesskabets markedsstøtteordning efterfølgende er ved at blive ændret.
Since then, I am glad to say that the Community market support scheme is being reformed.
Da jeg forlod denne sektor i december 2001, var der gang i tre større revisioner, der resulterede i særberetninger - en vedrørende tobak, en vedrørende bananordningen og en vedrørende Fællesskabets intervention på markedet for tørfoder.
At the time of my leaving this sector, in December 2001, three major audits, which resulted in Special Reports, were underway - one in relation to tobacco, one in relation to the banana regime and one covering Community intervention in relation to dried fodder.
Fra januar 2002, da jeg fik ansvaret for ADAR (Audit Development and Reports - revisionsmetoder og beretninger), blev jeg udnævnt til gruppeformand for CEAD-gruppen (Coordination, Evaluation, Assurance, Development - Koordinering, evaluering, revisionserklæring, udvikling).
From January 2002, when I became the Court Member responsible for ADAR ( A udit D evelopment a nd R eports), I was also nominated the Dean, or senior Member, of the Court's CEAD ( C oordination E valuation A ssurance D evelopment) Group.
Denne gruppe består af repræsentanter for samtlige revisionsgrupper i Retten, samt de medlemmer, der har ansvaret for ADAR og revisionserklæringen.
This group is made up of representatives of all the audit groups in the Court as well as the Members responsible for ADAR and the DAS.
CEAD-gruppen skal forberede spørgsmål af horisontal art med henblik på drøftelse og/eller vedtagelse i Retten.
The role of the CEAD Group is to prepare issues of a horizontal nature for discussion and/or decision by the Court.
Mange af de spørgsmål, der behandles, vedrører rettens metodologi - revisionserklæring, revisionsmanual, kvalitetsstyring, arbejdsplanlægning samt udkast til Rettens udtalelser på områder som revision af finansforordningen og én enkelt revision.
Many of the issues dealt with concern the Court's methodology - DAS, Audit Manual, quality assurance, work programming, as well as draft Court opinions on matters such as the revision of the Financial Regulation and the Single Audit.
Det var min opgave at organisere og være formand for gruppens møder og bistå med at finde en effektiv og acceptabel løsning i tilfælde af uenighed.
It was my duty to organize and chair the meetings of the Group and to assist in finding an effective and acceptable solution in cases of disagreement.
I min tid som gruppeformand havde jeg som ansvarligt medlem af ADAR det privilegium at forelægge en række forslag, navnlig vedrørende metodologi, kvalitetskontrol og planlægning.
During my time as Dean, it was my privilege, as the Member responsible for ADAR, to introduce certain proposals mainly related to methodology, quality control and programming.
ADAR-sektorens vigtigste rolle er at bistå Retten med at:
The principal role of the ADAR sector is to assist the Court by:
· udvikle passende revisionspolitikker, -standarder, -metoder og -teknikker
· developing appropriate audit policies, standards, methods and techniques;
· sikre, at Rettens godkendte politikker, standarder, metoder og teknikker følges
· ensuring that the Court-approved policies, standards, methods and techniques are followed;
· sikre Rettens beretningers og udtalelsers kvalitet og rettidighed.
· assuring the quality and timeliness of the Court's reports and opinions.
Med henblik på disse opgaver har sektoren udarbejdet Rettens revisionsmanual, edb-systemet for revisionsplanlægning, dokumentation og rapportering (ASSYST) og de kvalitetsstyringsforanstaltninger, der vedtoges af Retten i juli 2002.
In fulfilment of these functions the sector developed the Court's Audit Manual, the computerised audit planning, documentation and reporting system (ASSYST), and the Quality Control Measures that were adopted by the Court in July 2002.
Endvidere spiller ADAR en rolle i Rettens forbindelser til OLAF og i forbindelse med forberedelsen af Rettens udtalelser om finansforordningen og gennemførelsesbestemmelserne hertil.
In addition, ADAR plays a key role in the relationship of the Court with OLAF and in preparing the Court's Opinions in relation to the Financial Regulation and Implementing Measures.
Sektoren behandler og kommenterer løbende foreslåede revisionsplanlægningsmemoranda og alle foreløbige revisionsresultater og udkast til udtalelser på grundlag af revisionsmanualen, kvalitetskontrolforanstaltningerne og ASSYST's krav.
On an ongoing basis, the sector reviews and comments on proposed Audit Planning Memoranda and on all Preliminary Audit Findings and draft Opinions on the basis of the provisions of the Audit Manual, the Quality Control Measures and the requirements of ASSYST.
På den måde søger den at sikre Rettens beretningers og udtalelsers kvalitet og rettidighed.
In this way it seeks to assure the quality and timeliness of the Court's output.
ADAR-sektoren er også dybt involveret i uddannelse af personale, og dets personale kan vejlede revisorer om Rettens revisionsstandarder og -procedurer.
The ADAR sector is also heavily involved in training and its staff is available to provide guidance to auditors in relation to the Court's audit standards and procedures.
Da jeg ankom til sektoren blev jeg overbevist om, at der i lyset af min egen erfaring i Retten som et resultat af ADAR's arbejde i relation til dets kvalitetsstyringsrolle, var behov for at indføre et system, der kunne sikre konsekvens i dokumentationen af Rettens revisionsarbejde og nem adgang for både ledelse og ansatte til denne dokumentation.
When I arrived in the sector I was convinced that, in the light of my own experience at the Court and as a result of ADAR's activities in relation to its quality assurance role, there was a need to install a system that ensured consistency in the documentation of the Court's audit work and easy accessibility by both management and staff to that documentation.
Det var også mit mål at sikre, at et sådant system ville være en klar dokumentation af det udførte revisionsarbejdes art, omfang og resultat, og af de nødvendige kvalitetskontrolskridt, der var blevet taget.
It was also my aim to ensure that such a system would provide clear evidence of the nature, extent and results of the audit work done and of the necessary quality control steps having been carried out.
Det blev udført et stort arbejde for at finde og udvikle det system, der var bedst egnet til Rettens behov.
A lot of work was done to find and develop a system best suited to the Court's needs.
Som følge heraf foreslog jeg Retten, at vi skulle indføre et edb-dokumentationsprogram, der skulle dække planlægningen, gennemførelsen og rapporteringen af revisioner.
As a result of this, I proposed to the Court that we introduce a computerised documentation system covering planning, execution and reporting of audits.
Det blev kaldt ASSYST - A udit S upport Syst em.
This, we called ASSYST - A udit S upport Syst em.
Den almindelige udnyttelse af ASSYST siden januar 2003 har givet mere gennemskuelighed internt og også mere konsekvens, ikke blot i forbindelse med dokumentation, men også anvendelse af Rettens metodologi.
The general use of ASSYST since January 2003 has brought more transparency internally and also more consistency, not only in documentation but also in the application of the Court's methodology.
For at hjælpe revisorerne med at tilpasse sig til det nye system og lette accepten indførte jeg en ASSYST helpdesk inden for denne sektor.
In order to help auditors adapt to the new system and to facilitate its acceptance by them, I set up an ASSYST help-desk in the sector.
Vi overvåger konstant anvendelsen af systemet og indfører forbedringer for at øge effektiviteten i lyset af erfaringerne.
We are constantly monitoring the use of the system and introducing improvements in order to enhance its effectiveness in the light of experience.
Jeg forelagde også kvalitetskontrolforanstaltninger, som Retten vedtog.
I also introduced Quality Control Measures that the Court adopted.
Da det var nogen år side, revisionsmanualen var blevet vedtaget, mente jeg, det var på tide at give en påmindelse om kravene heri, navnlig hvad angår kvalitetskontrol.
Since it was some years since the Audit Manual had been approved, I considered it timely to give a reminder of its requirements, particularly in relation to quality control.
Det var specielt mit ønske at gøre dem, der befandt sig på forskellige ledelsesplaner i Retten, mere bevidst omkring deres ansvar med hensyn til kvalitetskontrol og behovet for en behørig dokumentation af denne kontrol.
Is so doing, I particularly wished to increase the awareness of those at the various levels of management within the Court of their responsibilities in relation to quality control and the need to adequately document that control.
En væsentlig mangel ved Rettens revisionsmanual var, at den gav meget ringe vejledning om revisionsaspektet "valuta for pengene", eller som det i dag hedder resultatsrevision.
A significant gap that existed in the Court's Audit Manual was that it gave very little guidance in relation to value-for-money audit or, as it is known today, performance audit.
Der er nu truffet foranstaltninger til at afhjælpe denne mangel i form af en godkendelse af et første modul vedrørende resultatsrevision.
Steps have now been taken to fill that gap with the adoption of a first module on performance audit.
Det indeholder de generelle principper og giver vejledning til revisorer om tilgangen til resultatsrevision.
It sets out the general principles and gives guidance to auditors as to how to approach performance audit.
Dette afsnit af revisionsmanualen vil blive suppleret med mere detaljerede moduler, der naturligvis er under udarbejdelse.
This section of the Audit Manual will be completed by more detailed modules which are in the course of preparation.
Jeg har også taget initiativ til en generel revision og ajourføring af Rettens revisionsmanual for at sikre, at den lever op til bedste praksis i dag.
I have also initiated a general review and update of the Court's Audit Manual to ensure that it is in line with best practice today.
Rettens forbindelser til OLAF er vigtige, som ansvarligt medlem for ADAR er det min opgave at knytte forbindelse til OLAF på Rettens vegne.
The Court's relations with OLAF are important and, as the Member responsible for ADAR, it is my duty to liaise with OLAF on behalf of the Court.
Siden 1996 har Retten haft procedurer, der skal følges, såfremt der i forbindelse med en rutinerevision påvises tilfælde af uregelmæssigheder eller formodet svig.
Since 1996, the Court has procedures in place to be followed when, during the course of a routine audit, a case of irregularity or suspected fraud has been discovered.
