forventer derfor, at Kommissionen nøje overvejer, hvilke ngo'er den yder støtte til, og at den kræver, at de støttede ngo'er aflægger regnskab og forelægger revisionserklæringer udarbejdet af uafhængige revisorer, i lighed med de krav, der stilles til almindelige virksomheder;
Expects the Commission, therefore, to carefully consider to which NGOs it gives support and to insist that NGOs given support present accounts and audit statements drawn up by independent auditors, on the same basis as ordinary undertakings;
opfordrer Kommissionen til at efterprøve, om de støttemodtagende ngo'er opfylder kravet om åbenhed i forbindelse med deres virksomhed, og om deres ledelsesorganer er velregulerede;
Calls on the Commission to undertake the necessary verification to ensure that the NGOs it supports practise transparency in their activities and that their governing bodies operate correctly;
Skatteyderne og EU's budget
The taxpayers and the EU budget
minder om, at Den Europæiske Unions indtægter til finansiering af dens udgifter består af tre kategorier af såkaldte "egne indtægter": traditionelle egne indtægter (landbrugsafgifter, sukkerafgifter og told), egne indtægter beregnet på grundlag af moms opkrævet af medlemsstaterne og egne indtægter beregnet på grundlag af medlemsstaternes bruttonationalindkomst;
Recalls that the European Union's revenue for financing its expenditure consists of three categories of 'own resources': traditional own resources (agricultural levies, sugar levies and customs duties), own resources calculated on the basis of VAT collected by the Member States and own resources calculated on the basis of the Member States' gross national product;
henviser til, at Fællesskabets indkomst via disse egne indtægter hidtil har været tilstrækkelig til at finansiere Den Europæiske Unions aktiviteter og politikker, men bemærker, at der siden 1970, hvor de indtil da gældende finansielle bidrag fra medlemsstaterne blev erstattet med de egne indtægter, og indførelsen af den BNI-beregnede egne indtægt i 1988, er foretaget utallige ændringer af ordningen, som regel efter pres fra medlemsstaterne;
Notes that the Community's revenue via these own resources has hitherto been insufficient to finance the European Union's activities and policies, but points out that since 1970, when the system of Member States' financial contributions was replaced with own resources, and the introduction of own resources based on GNP in 1988, numerous changes have been made to the system, frequently under pressure from the Member States;
minder om, at moms- og BNI-indtægterne er baseret på makroøkonomiske statistikker, der fremsendes af medlemsstaterne, og at Revisionsretten ikke har mulighed for at teste de underliggende data direkte; henleder opmærksomheden på, at Revisionsretten er af den opfattelse, at der er "tvivl om, hvorvidt medlemsstaternes momsopgørelser (der udfærdiges af de enkelte medlemsstater) er rigtige og pålidelige" (punkt 3.37 i årsberetningen for 2002);
Points out that the VAT and GNP resources are based on macroeconomic statistics forwarded by the Member States and that the Court of Auditors is unable to test the underlying data directly; notes the Court of Auditors' view that '[these observations] cast doubt on the accuracy and reliability of the VAT statements produced by the Member States' (point 3.37 of the 2002 Annual Report);
finder, at der er flere gode grunde til at omlægge finansieringen af EU-budgettet, og at målet bør være at sikre dels EU's økonomiske uafhængighed af nationale bidrag underlagt de nationale parlamenters beslutninger og dels finansieringen af alle de opgaver, der skal løses i en Union med 25 medlemmer, uden dermed at belaste den europæiske skatteyder yderligere;
Considers that there are several good reasons for reorganising the financing of the EU budget, and that the aim should be to secure the EU's financial independence from national contributions subject to the decisions of national parliaments, and funding for all the tasks to be undertaken in a Union of 25 Member States, without thereby further burdening European taxpayers;

, og at mange borgeres forestillinger om EU-budgettets størrelse slet ikke svarer til virkeligheden;
, and that many of the public's notions about the size of the EU budget simply have no foundation in reality;
opfordrer Kommissionen til at udarbejde en rapport om mulighederne for at indføre et mere direkte forhold mellem skatteyderne og EU-budgettet, idet en sådan ordning vil være ikke blot en økonomisk fordel i forhold til det nuværende system, men også et vigtigt politisk instrument til opnåelse af alle de mål, der er fastsat i EF-traktatens artikel 2;
Calls on the Commission to draw up a report on the possibilities of introducing a more direct link between taxpayers and the EU budget, since such a scheme would not only be financially advantageous, but would also be an important political instrument for achieving all the objectives set out in Article 2 of the Treaty;
Fællesskabets forsendelsessystem
The Community's transit system
glæder sig over den vellykkede høring, der blev arrangeret som opfølgning på anbefalingerne fra det første midlertidige udvalg i 1997; erindrer om, at baggrunden for nedsættelsen af det midlertidige udvalg var indførelsen af det indre marked, behovet for hurtig og effektiv toldbehandling og et effektivt forsendelsessystem til sikring af korrekt indbetaling af moms og toldafgifter, og at Parlamentet og Rådet som resultat af undersøgelsesudvalgets arbejde anmodede Kommissionen om at revidere Fællesskabets forsendelsessystem og iværksætte det nye datamatiserede forsendelsessystem NCTS ("New Computerised Transit system");
Welcomes the success of the hearing held to follow up the recommendations made by the first temporary committee in 1997; recalls that the background to the setting-up of the temporary committee was the introduction of the internal market and the need for rapid and effective customs clearance and an effective transit system to ensure the correct payment of VAT and customs duties, and that Parliament and the Council, as a result of the work of the committee of inquiry, called on the Commission to review the Community's transit system and implement the New Computerised Transit System (NCTS);
finder det tilfredsstillende, at alle lovpligtige og administrative foranstaltninger er gennemført i medlemsstaterne, og at alle toldkontorer i Fællesskabet er tilkoblet NCTS; glæder sig over, at der allerede i udviklingsfasen af NCTS blev taget hensyn til udvidelsen, og at NCTS i dag fremstår som et særdeles fleksibelt instrument;
Is pleased that all the compulsory administrative measures have been taken in the Member States and that all customs offices in the EU are linked to NCTS; welcomes the fact that in the development stage of NCTS, account has already been taken of enlargement, and that NCTS is now showing itself to be a particularly flexible instrument;
bemærker, at det forekommer for tidligt at vurdere systemets succes set fra transitvirksomhedernes synsvinkel, men konstaterer, at de erhvervsdrivende tilsyneladende er noget tilbageholdende; opfordrer Kommissionen til at fremme overgangen til fase 3.2 af NCTS, hvilket hovedsagelig er et nationalt anliggende, idet det forventes, at garantistyringsfunktionen, der først bliver gennemført med fase 3.2, vil virke som et kraftigt incitament for virksomhederne til at anvende systemet;
Is aware that it is probably too early to assess the success of the system from the point of view of transit firms, but notes that the business world is apparently rather reluctant to use it; calls on the Commission to promote the transition to phase 3.2 of NCTS, which is mainly a national matter, since it is expected that the guarantee guidance function, which will only be implemented with phase 3.2, will act as a strong incentive to businesses to use the system;
mener, at de 68 mio. EUR, der foreløbig er givet ud på projektet, kun kan forrentes ved et væsentligt større antal brugere; mener ligeledes, at en del af forklaringen på den lave tilslutning skyldes beslutningen om at anvende en "decentraliseret struktur", som indebærer, at de nationale toldadministrationer skal anvende en national applikation i modsætning til en "centraliseret struktur" baseret på en fælles applikation, som alle toldadministrationer har opkobling til;
Considers that the EUR 68 million which have so far been spent on the project can only pay off if there is a far greater number of users; also considers that one reason for the low level of use is the decision to apply a 'decentralised architecture', whereby the national customs administrations will use a national application, as opposed to a 'centralised architecture' based on a common application to which all customs administrations are linked;
konstaterer, at virkeligheden stadig er langt fra undersøgelsesudvalgets anbefaling om, at alle toldadministrationer skal handle som én administration over for de erhvervsdrivende; beklager at måtte konstatere, at de nationale toldmyndigheder er meget passive, mens Kommissionen og de erhvervsdrivendes sammenslutninger tilslutter sig dette mål;
Notes that the reality still lags far behind the recommendation of the committee of inquiry that all customs administrations should act as a single administration in relation to businesses; notes with regret that, while this objective is shared by the Commission and by business associations, the national customs administrations are being very passive;
konstaterer ligeledes, at NCTS ikke direkte kan forebygge eller bekæmpe svig, der begåes ved hjælp at falske tolddeklarationer, og som kun kan afsløres ved fysisk kontrol; glæder sig over, at NCTS ved at forenkle toldmedarbejdernes administrative opgaver kan medvirke til at frigøre menneskelige ressourcer til at bekæmpe denne form for svig; opfordrer medlemsstaterne til at anvende de frigjorte ressourcer til en effektiv og omfattende fysisk kontrol;
Further notes that NCTS cannot directly prevent or combat fraud committed using false customs declarations, which can only be detected by physical checks; welcomes the fact that NCTS, by simplifying the administrative tasks of customs workers, can help free up human resources to combat this type of fraud; calls on the Member States to make use of the resources thus released for effective and comprehensive physical checks;
konstaterer, at Kommissionen tolererer, at fejlagtigt eller bevidst ukorrekt deklarerede varer betragtes som varer uden for forsendelsesproceduren, med den konsekvens at garantien ikke længere gælder, at papirer skal returnes til EU-indgangslandet og at bedrageribekæmpelsen vanskeliggøres; opfordrer Kommissionen til omgående at ændre denne praksis og foreslå en tilsvarende ændring af toldkodeksen;
Notes that the Commission allows goods which have been incorrectly or falsely declared to be regarded as not being involved in the transit procedure, with the result that the guarantee cannot be reclaimed, that the papers have to be sent back to the country of entry into the EU, and that the campaign to combat fraud is impeded; calls on the Commission to put an immediate end to this practice and to propose an appropriate amendment to the Customs Code;
konstaterer, at personalet i mange toldforvaltninger snarere reduceres end øges, således at mange tilfælde af fejlagtige deklarationer og andre uregelmæssigheder forbliver uopklaret, fordi de kun kan opdages ved fysisk kontrol på stedet og på grundlag af papirer; konstaterer, at udgifterne til en styrkelse af kontrolpersonalet ville blive mere end dækket af de øgede toldindtægter; opfordrer Kommissionen til at henstille til medlemsstaterne at styrke det personale, der er nødvendigt for den fysiske kontrol, også på baggrund af, at medlemsstaternes andel af toldindtægterne er blevet forhøjet fra 10 til 25%;
Notes that, in many customs administrations, staff numbers are being reduced rather than increased, with the result that false declarations and other irregularities, which can be exposed only by means of on-the-spot physical inspections, are going undetected; notes that the costs involved in increasing the number of inspection staff are more than offset by the increase in customs revenue; calls on the Commission to urge the Member States to increase the number of staff required for physical inspection duties, especially now that the share of customs revenue allocated to the Member States has been increased from 10% to 25%;
anmoder Kommissionen om inden den 15. juni 2004 at udarbejde en sammenfattende rapport, som viser gennemførelsen af de 38 anbefalinger, som undersøgelsesudvalget udarbejdede i 1997;
Calls on the Commission to draw up, no later than 15 June 2004, a survey showing the implementation of the 38 recommendations made by the committee of inquiry in 1997;
anmoder ligeledes Kommissionen om, at den - inden forelæggelse af opfølgningsrapporten - i dets kompetente udvalg og på baggrund af en kort skriftlig situationsrapport tilstilet udvalget redegør for den fortsatte gennemførelse af (og eventuelle problemer med) NCTS, hvad angår bl.a. implementeringen af fase 3.2, antallet af brugere, brugertilfredshed, implementeringen i medlemslandene (nye som gamle) og de nationale toldadministrationers engagement;
Calls also on the Commission, in its competent committee and on the basis of a brief written report on the situation forwarded to that committee prior to the follow-up report, to report on (any problems with) the continued implementation of NCTS, with regard inter alia to the implementation of phase 3.2, the number of users, user satisfaction, implementation in the Member States (new and old) and the commitment of the national customs administrations;
Fastsættelse af satserne for eksporttilskud
Setting of export subsidy rates
fastslår under henvisning til Kommissionens svar i punkt 25 i Revisionsrettens særberetning nr. 9/2003 om procedurerne for fastsættelse af satserne for tilskud til eksport af landbrugsprodukter EUT C 211 af 5.9.2003, s. 1.
Notes, in relation to the Commission's reply under point 25 of Special Report No 9/2003 concerning the system for setting the rates of subsidy on agricultural products OJ C 211, 5.9.2003, p.1.
, at hverken Kommissionen eller Revisionsretten giver dechargemyndigheden nærmere oplysninger om indholdet og arten af de omtalte "yderst vigtige omstændigheder", som var årsag til, at Kommissionen valgte "en anden sats end den teoretisk beregnede sats";
, that neither the Commission nor the Court of Auditors has supplied the discharge authority with details on the content and nature of the 'extremely important circumstances' for which the Commission opted for 'a rate different from the theoretical calculated rate';
minder om, at udgifterne på EU-budgettet til eksportrestitutioner afhænger af dels mængden af produkter til eksport og dels den eksportrestitutionssats, Kommissionen fastsætter, og at Revisionsrettens undersøgelse af, hvorledes, gennem hvilke procedurer og på hvilket grundlag Kommissionen når frem til fastsættelsen af denne sats, derfor er både vedkommende og nyttig, fordi fastsættelsen af satsen er et vigtigt tandhjul i hele eksportrestitutionsmekanismen;
Recalls that the expenditure in the EU budget for export refunds is dependent on the quantity of products for export and the export refund rate set by the Commission, and that the investigation by the Court of Auditors as to how, by means of which procedures and on what basis the Commission decides to set that rate is therefore both welcome and useful, as the setting of the rate is an important cog in the entire export refund mechanism;
har forståelse for, at den reviderede i sine svar til revisors bemærkninger vil søge at forsvare og forklare sin handlemåde; har ligeledes forståelse for, at en særberetning er et billede af forvaltningen på et tidspunkt, der ligger forud for offentliggørelsen af særberetningen, og at der kan være indtruffet ændringer i løbet af den tid, det tager at gennemføre og færdiggøre en revisionsundersøgelse;
Understands that, in their reply to the auditors' observations, auditees will seek to defend and explain their actions; also understands that a special report is a snapshot of management at a particular time before the publication of the special report, and that changes may have been made during the period it takes to carry out and complete an audit;
finder trods anerkendelsen af ovenstående forhold, at afstanden mellem de to institutioners opfattelse af på den ene side "hvordan situationen er" og på den anden side "hvorledes den burde være" stiller dechargemyndigheden i en vanskelig og utilfredsstillende situation;
Finds, despite the above acknowledgement, that the gap between the two institutions' understanding of, on the one hand, 'what the situation is' and, on the other hand, 'what the situation should be' puts the discharge authority in a difficult and unsatisfactory situation;
minder Revisionsretten og Kommissionen om, at formålet med revision er at nå frem til stadige forbedringer af den aktuelle forvaltning, og at undersøgelsesresultater og svar herpå bør udarbejdes således, at de er forståelige for den europæiske offentlighed, og forventer hurtige fremskridt hen imod dette mål;
Reminds the Court of Auditors and the Commission that the object of an audit is to bring about constant improvements in the relevant management process and that the outcome of audits and replies thereto should be drawn up in such a way as to be comprehensible to the European public, and expects rapid progress towards that objective;
og om metoden til fastsættelse af eksportrestitutionerne konkluderede, at "der ikke forelå tilstrækkelig dokumentation hverken for de faktiske forhold, for de trufne beslutninger eller for resultaterne, og at revision ved uafhængig tredjepart og ledelseskontrol derfor stort set var umulig" (særberetning nr. 9/2003, punkt 9);
and concluded in regard to the method of setting export refunds that 'documentation of the facts, the Commission's consideration of the facts, the decisions taken and the outcome was not maintained, and, as a consequence, independent third party and audit and management control were virtually impossible' (Special Report 9/2003, paragraph 9);
minder om, at Parlamentet i sin betænkning om Rettens særberetning nr. 2/90 konkluderede som følger: "Den interne beslutningsproces i Kommissionen må af hensyn til kravet om offentlig regnskabspligt dokumenteres skriftligt og begrundes, således at den til enhver tid kan efterprøves af de for kontrollen ansvarlige instanser" (særberetning nr. 9/2003, punkt 10);
Recalls that, in its resolution on the Court's Special Report No 2/90, Parliament concluded that 'for reasons of public accountability, the Commission's internal decision-making procedures must be recorded and justified in writing so that its reasoning can be followed by the monitoring bodies at any time' (Special Report 9/2003, paragraph 10);
bemærker, at Retten i sin seneste beretning konkluderer, at
Notes that, in its latest report, the Court concludes that:
Kommissionen har adgang til omfattende markedsoplysninger, men at disse ikke altid er ajourførte, fuldstændige eller objektive,
the Commission has access to extensive market information but that this is not always up-to-date, complete or objective;
det i mange tilfælde er uklart, hvordan oplysningerne bliver anvendt, og hvilken indvirkning de har på den endelige fastsættelse af restitutionssatserne,
in many cases it is unclear how the information is used and what impact it has on the final refund rates set;
Kommissionen ved fastsættelsen af restitutionssatserne ikke redegør nærmere for sine arbejdsmetoder og heller ikke giver nogen systematisk og sammenhængende begrundelse for de vedtagne satser (særberetning nr. 9/2003, punkt 39);
in setting the refund rates, the Commission gives no details of its working methods or any systematic and coherent justification for the rates set (Special Report 9/2003, paragraph 39);
beklager, at de fremskridt, der er gjort i de 13 år, som er gået mellem de to undersøgelser, har været meget langsommelige, og kræver yderligere forbedringer efter Rettens og dechargemyndighedens henstillinger og uforbeholden gennemførelse af den omfattende handlingsplan fra 2002;
Regrets the slow progress made in the 13 years between the two audits, and calls for further improvement following the recommendations of the Court of Auditors and the discharge authority and the full implementation of its 2002 comprehensive action plan;
forventer, at Kommissionen i sin opfølgningsrapport redegør for
Expects the Commission to account in its follow-up report for the following:
årsagen til disse langsommelige og beskedne fremskridt i de tretten år mellem de to undersøgelser (særberetning nr. 9/2003, punkt 39)
the slow and limited nature of the progress made in the 13 years between the two audits (Special Report 9/2003, paragraph 39),
de opnåede resultater i den arbejdsgruppe, Kommissionen har nedsat som resultat af Rettens revision (særberetning nr. 9/2003, punkt 40, litra a), fodnote 2, side 12)
the results achieved by the working group set up by the Commission in response to the Court's audit (Special Report 9/2003, paragraph 40a, footnote 7);
i hvilken udstrækning GD Landbrug opfylder standard nr. 15 i de interne kontrolstandarder, som lyder:
to what extent DG Agriculture meets standard No 15 of the internal control standards, which reads:
The procedure used in the DG for its main processes shall be fully documented, kept up to date and available to all relevant staff and shall be compliant with the Financial Regulation and all relevant Commission decisions" http://europa.eu.int/comm/commissioners/schreyer/Reform/SEC%20_2001_2037_Internal_Control_Standards_en.pdf
'The procedure used in the DG for its main processes shall be fully documented, kept up to date and available to all relevant staff and shall be compliant with the Financial Regulation and all relevant Commission decisions' http://europa.eu.int/comm/commissioners/schreyer/Reform/SEC%20_2001_2037_Internal_Control_Standards_en.pdf
forventer ligeledes, at Kommissionen vil sørge for snarest at kunne forelægge
Also expects the Commission to submit as soon as possible:
en overordnet ramme for de oplysninger, der skal indgå i beregningerne af satsen,
an overall framework for the information to be included in the calculation of the rate;
pålidelig dokumentation for udvalgte oplysninger,
reliable documentation for the information selected;
kvalitetssikring af de udvalgte oplysninger,
quality control of the information selected;
tydelig angivelse af opgave- og ansvarsfordeling internt i Kommissionen,
a clear statement of the division of tasks and responsibilities internally in the Commission;
en tydelig og klar beskrivelse af de forretningsgange, der skal følges, og navnlig
a clear and unambiguous description of the procedures to be followed; and, in particular,
en beskrivelse af kontrolprocedurer og kriterier for skøn;
a description of control procedures and criteria for assessment;
anmoder Revisionsretten om at holde Parlamentet orienteret om Kommissionens gennemførelse af anbefalingerne i punkt 40, litra a) - h), i særberetning nr. 9/2003;
Calls on the Court of Auditors to keep it informed of the Commission's implementation of the recommendations set out in paragraph 40 a) - h) of Special Report 9/2003;
