anmoder Kommissionen om at udarbejde forslag med sigte på at sanktionere svigagtige eller ukorrekte indberetninger fra betalingsorganernes side, som skal omfatte følgende tre dimensioner: kontrolstatistikker, betalingsorganernes erklæringer og det arbejde, der udføres af godkendelsesorganerne; anmoder om, at Kommissionen tillægges beføjelse til at trække godkendelsen af betalingsorganet tilbage i tilfælde af alvorlige vildledende oplysninger;
Reliability of the Member States' data in direct payments
anmoder Kommissionen og medlemsstaterne om at træffe de nødvendige foranstaltninger til at sikre, at IFKS udnyttes fuldt ud, og navnlig sikre, at landbrugsparcellernes støtteberettigelse og størrelse vurderes og registreres korrekt af medlemsstaterne, og at medlemsstaterne omgående træffer korrigerende foranstaltninger, hvis det opdages, at IFKS er ramt af systemiske fejl;
Reiterates the Court of Auditors' assertions [24] that the results of this new approach show that only limited assurance can be gained from the Member States' inspection statistics, the declarations of the directors of paying agencies and the work carried out by the certifications bodies;
opfordrer indtrængende Kommissionen til at kaste lys over de forhold, som Revisionsretten rapporterer om Irland og Italien i punkt 3.24 og 3.25 i sin årsberetning for 2013, vedrørende uregelmæssigheder med hensyn til inddrivelsen af uretmæssigt udbetalte beløb, træffe de nødvendige korrigerende foranstaltninger og rapportere herom til Parlamentet senest i juni 2015;
Points out that despite the fact that almost all the paying agencies for the direct payments were accredited and certified by the certifying authorities and despite the fact that 79 of the 82 statements of assurance made by the paying agencies received an unqualified opinion from the certification bodies in 2013, thus confirming the accuracy of the statements of assurance presented by the directors of the paying agencies, the Commission had to correct upwards the error rates communicated by 42 out of 68 paying agencies with a residual error rate above 2 %;
opfordrer indtrængende Kommissionen til at tage skridt til yderligere at nedbringe puklen af uafsluttede revisionssager i regnskabsafslutningsproceduren, således at alle revisioner, der er udført før 2012, kan afsluttes inden udgangen af 2015;
Points out that the 5 paying agencies with the highest error rate were:
anmoder navnlig om, at mandatet for medlemmerne af det forligsorgan, der er involveret i regnskabsafslutningsproceduren, begrænses tidsmæssigt til en periode på i første omgang tre år, der eventuelt kan forlænges med højst et år; anmoder endvidere om, at mulige interessekonflikter i forbindelse med behandlingen af disse sager undgås, og at medlemsstaterne ikke er repræsenteret i forligsorganet, når de er direkte berørt af finansielle korrektioner;
United Kingdom, RPA
anmoder Kommissionen om at rapportere til Parlamentet om gennemførelsen af loftet for de direkte betalinger under den fælles landbrugspolitik i detaljer og for hver enkelt medlemsstat;
5,66 % (Member State (MS) notification: 0,67 %)
kræver en mindre bureaukratisk fælles landbrugspolitik for at reducere fejlprocenterne; glæder sig derfor over den forpligtelse, Kommissionen har påtaget sig, med hensyn til at gøre forenkling og subsidiaritet til en af hovedprioriteterne i de næste fem år; anmoder om, at betalingsorganer, som konstant præsterer utilfredsstillende resultater, i ekstreme tilfælde fratages deres akkreditering;
Greece, OKEPE
opfordrer Kommissionen til rettidigt at forelægge en detaljeret plan for at mindske bureaukratiet inden for den fælles landbrugspolitik med 25 % inden for de næste fem år;
5,17 % (MS notification: 0,83 %)
anmoder Revisionsretten om at undersøge politikområdet udvikling af landdistrikterne i et særskilt kapitel i årsberetningen eller som minimum at beregne særskilte fejlprocenter for politikområdet udvikling af landdistrikterne, fiskeripolitikken og programmet LIFE+;
Spain, AVGA
henstiller, at Kommissionen sikrer, at medlemsstaternes handlingsplaner vedrørende udvikling af landdistrikterne er fuldstændige og omfatter alle regioner og foranstaltninger inden for deres dækningsområde, navnlig investeringsforanstaltninger, og tager højde for Kommissionens og Revisionsrettens revision;
4,71 % (MS notification: 1,93 %)
spørger til Kommissionens opfølgning i betragtning af de tilfælde af formodet bevidste overtrædelser, som Revisionsretten har indberettet til OLAF, især hvad angår foranstaltningen til udvikling af landdistrikterne »forøgelse af værdien af landbrugs- og skovbrugsprodukter«, og anmoder Kommissionen om i sin beretning om opfølgning af decharge til Kommissionen for 2013 at foretage en fuldstændig evaluering af denne foranstaltnings udformning i lyset af de kritiske bemærkninger, Revisionsretten har fremsat vedrørende dens effektivitet;
Portugal, IFAP
opfordrer indtrængende Kommissionen til nøje at overvåge gennemførelsen af programmerne for udvikling af landdistrikterne og i sine overensstemmelsesrevisioner at tage højde for de gældende regler, herunder hvor det er relevant, dem der er vedtaget på nationalt plan, for at mindske risikoen for at gentage de svagheder og fejl, man stødte på i programmeringsperioden 2007-2013;
4,37 % (MS notification: 0,82 %)
Fiskeri
Romania, PIAA
bemærker det forbehold, som GD MARE har fremsat om en fejlprocent på over 2 % i forbindelse med nogle medlemsstaters oplyste udgifter, én rapport, der vurderes som upålidelig, og én manglende rapport; beklager dybt situationen for så vidt angår den pågældende medlemsstat; konstaterer imidlertid, at situationen er forbedret efter Kommissionens henstillinger til denne medlemsstat;
4,27 % (MS notification: 1,77 %)
beklager, at Revisionsretten ud over disse bemærkninger ikke har redegjort mere detaljeret for resultatet af sine revisioner for det særlige område fiskeri og maritime anliggender, og opfordrer til, at oplysningerne bekendtgøres af hensyn til gennemsigtigheden;
Regrets that the current legislative framework does not provide sanctions for incorrect or false reporting [25] by the paying agencies;
noterer sig, at 92,31 % af de betalinger, som gennemføres af GD MARE, gennemføres til tiden; bemærker imidlertid med bekymring, at antallet af forsinkede betalinger er steget i forhold til det foregående regnskabsår; bemærker med tilfredshed, at der i 2013 betaltes mindre i morarenter, og opfordrer derfor GD MARE til at overholde sine betalingsfrister i overensstemmelse med de relevante bestemmelser;
Calls for Union officials to increase supervision and to monitor and coordinate more closely national paying agencies within the relevant Member States, with the aim of resolving the deficiencies they are experiencing, in particular for those paying agencies that continuously under-performed over the last three years, with a view to making payments management more efficient;
Regionalpolitik, transport og energi
IACS and LPIS
fremhæver, at under dette politikområde (45311 mio. EUR) gik 96 % (43494 mio. EUR) af de samlede betalinger i 2013 til regionalpolitikken, der primært implementeres gennem Den Europæiske Fond for Regionaludvikling (EFRU) og Samhørighedsfonden, 1059 mio. EUR til mobilitet og transport og 758 mio. EUR til energi;
Shares the view expressed by the Commission and the Court of Auditors that as a whole the Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) plays a key role in preventing and reducing errors in claims from farmers and points out that its proper functioning should have ensured that agricultural direct payments are free from material error;
anerkender den afgørende rolle, som Unionens regionalpolitik spiller med hensyn til at mindske de regionale forskelle, fremme økonomisk, social og territorial samhørighed mellem regionerne i medlemsstaterne og mellem medlemsstaterne; anerkender, at denne politik er den vigtigste langsigtede EU-politik til investering i realøkonomien, som repræsenterer 29 % af Unionens samlede budgetudgifter i 2013 og er et veletableret redskab til at skabe vækst og beskæftigelse i Unionen, hvilket støtter opfyldelsen af Europa 2020-strategiens mål;
Deplores that persistent weaknesses in excluding ineligible land from the Land Parcel Identification System (LPIS) and in the administrative treatment claims from farmers contribute significantly to the material level of error remaining in EAGF payments;
anerkender den vigtige rolle, som transport- og energipolitikker spiller med hensyn til at etablere sikre, bæredygtige og konkurrencedygtige transport- og energisystemer og -ydelser for Unionens borgere og virksomheder, og understreger disse politikkers bidrag til gennemførelse af Europa 2020-strategiens mål;
Stresses once again the horizontal dimension of the deficiencies detected in the LPIS; notes that since 2007, the Court of Auditors examined IACS in 38 paying agencies in all 28 Member States and deeply regrets that only seven of the control systems were assessed as effective, 22 were found to be partially effective and nine control systems were considered as ineffective; calls on the Commission to ensure that financial risks for the budget are covered by net financial corrections;
glæder sig over, at Kommissionen evaluerer regionalpolitikkens effektivitet, produktivitet, sammenhæng og europæiske merværdi gennem den efterfølgende revision; forventer at modtage regelmæssige ajourføringer af Kommissionens evaluering;
Procedures to ensure recovery of undue payments
understreger, at Kommissionen bør sikre, at den modtager ensartede og pålidelige oplysninger fra medlemsstaterne om anvendelsen af EFRU-midler; mener, at disse oplysninger bør vise fremskridtene i de operationelle programmer, ikke kun i finansiel henseende, men også med hensyn til resultater [36];
Is worried by the fact reported by the Court of Auditors [26] that sums lost as a result of irregularities or negligence relating to claims for the year 2008 or earlier had been brought to the attention of debtors in Ireland after considerable delay and were not subject to any recovery or enforcement procedure for several years;
henleder opmærksomheden på flerårigheden af samhørighedspolitikkens forvaltningssystem og understreger, at den endelige evaluering af uregelmæssigheder i forbindelse med gennemførelsen af politikkerne først vil være mulig ved afslutningen af programmeringsperioden;
States that until the end of 2012, out of EUR 6,7 million of debts relating to these claim years EUR 2,3 million was borne by the Union under the 50/50 rule despite the delay observed by the Court of Auditors in the notification procedure and fears that the money would be definitely lost for the Union budget;
Fejl
Is also concerned by the Court of Auditors' findings as regards the fact that Italian authorities did not record whether debts were due to irregularities or administrative errors which could potentially lead to charging the Union budget; calls on the Commission to make a detailed analysis of this situation and report back before the end of the year;
bemærker, at der var fejl i 102 (57 %) af de 180 transaktioner, der er blevet revideret af Revisionsretten; noterer sig, at Revisionsretten er 95 % sikker på, at fejlprocenten i populationen ligger mellem 3,7 % og 10,1 % (henholdsvis minimum og maksimum), og at den på grundlag af de 40 fejl, den har kvantificeret, anslår den mest sandsynlige fejlprocent til at være 6,9 % (2012: 6,8 %);
Notes that according to the data provided in the 2013 annual activity report of DG AGRI [27], the worst performing Member States as regards the recoveries of undue payments are Bulgaria with a recovery rate of 4 %, 21 % in Greece, 25 % in France, 25 % in Slovenia, 27 % in Slovakia and 33 % in Hungary; is concerned about the alarmingly low levels of recoveries in certain domains and requests a report from the Commission about the causes and the possibilities to achieve improvements;
fremhæver, at myndighederne i 17 tilfælde af kvantificerbare fejl begået af støttemodtagere havde tilstrækkelige oplysninger til at forhindre, opdage og korrigere disse fejl, inden de anmeldte udgifterne over for Kommissionen; bemærker, at hvis alle disse oplysninger var blevet brugt til at korrigere fejl, ville den mest sandsynlige fejlprocent, der er anslået for dette kapitel, have været tre procentpoint lavere; understreger, at medlemsstaterne har et stort ansvar for at sikre en korrekt og lovlig gennemførelse af Unionens budget, når de er ansvarlige for forvaltningen af Unionens midler;
Clearance of accounts procedure
gør opmærksom på, at de største risici i forbindelse med overholdelsen af EFRU og Samhørighedsfonden samt af mobilitet, transport og energi vedrører fejl i forbindelse med reglerne for offentlige indkøb (39 %), ikke-støtteberettigede projekter/aktiviteter eller støttemodtagere (22 %), ikke-støtteberettigede udgifter medtaget i omkostningsanmeldelser (21 %) samt manglende overholdelse af reglerne om statsstøtte for EFRU og Samhørighedsfonden; glæder sig over, at Kommissionen har iværksat tiltag for at afbøde disse risici, og opfordrer den til fortsat at yde vejledning og tilvejebringe uddannelse for forvaltningsmyndighederne vedrørende de identificerede risici; forventer, at de nye forordninger og regler for programmeringsperioden 2014 til 2020 vil bidrage til at reducere risikoen for fejl og til at opnå bedre resultater gennem en større forenkling og præcisering af procedurerne;
Notes that the Commission took four conformity decisions in 2013 leading to financial corrections of EUR 1116,8 million (EUR 861,9 million relating to EAGF and EUR 236,2 million to European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) which represents around 2 % of the Union's 2013 budget for agriculture and rural development (1,4 % in the period 2008-2012);
Pålideligheden af medlemsstaternes indberetninger
Points out that this amount cannot be compared with the most likely error rate issued by the Court of Auditors because the Commission's conformity audits are systems-based, do not check the regularity of underlying transactions, cover expenditures relating to several budgetary years, lead to financial corrections made for 65 % on a flat-rate basis and consequently do not enable an annual error rate to be calculated [28];
bemærker, at medlemsstaternes myndigheder fremsendte 322 nationale revisionserklæringer vedrørende deres operationelle programmer, og at disse erklæringer i 209 tilfælde (65 %) angav en fejlforekomst på under 2 %; noterer sig, at Kommissionen, da den kontrollerede oplysningerne, kun kunne bekræfte medlemsstaternes indberetning af fejlprocenterne i 78 nationale revisionserklæringer; noterer sig, at Kommissionen var nødt til at korrigere 244 revisionserklæringer [37]; anmoder Kommissionen om fremover at redegøre for alle detaljer vedrørende ændringer af fejlprocenter, som GD REGIO foretager;
Stresses that the 2013 increase of the average level of financial correction by comparison with the period 2008- 2012 is according to the findings of the Court of Auditors [29] mainly explained by the reduction of the backlog of open audit files from 553 at the end of 2012 to 516 at the end of 2013 and that the resolution of these files which related to financial years prior to 2010 resulted in financial corrections of EUR 881 million (79 % of the total);
konstaterer, at Kommissionen fandt, at alle nationalt reviderede fejlprocenter i indberetningerne fra Slovakiet var upålidelige, 10 ud af 15 fejlprocenter i indberetningerne fra Ungarn, to ud af syv i indberetningerne fra Bulgarien og en ud af fire i indberetningerne fra Belgien; anmoder Kommissionen om at anskueliggøre, hvorvidt og hvordan de faste korrektioner, der blev pålagt for at beskytte Unionens budget (25 % i ét program og 10 % i ni programmer i Slovakiet, to i Bulgarien og Italien og ét i Belgien [38]), rettede op på situationen;
Is worried that the independence of the conciliation body which may be involved in the conformity clearance procedure is not guaranteed by the provisions currently in force [30];
understreger, at indberetningen af fejl i følgende operationelle programmer var særligt upålidelig:
Rural development, environment, fisheries and health
Medlemsstat
Notes that the payments in rural development, environment, fisheries and health are not free from material error in 2013, with a reduction in the most likely error rate to 6,7 % from 7,9 % in 2012 and that seven of the 13 supervisory and control systems examined for expensed payments in Member States were assessed as being partially effective and six as ineffective;
Program
Concurs with the view expressed by the Court of Auditors that the most likely error rate would have been reduced to 2 % if the national authorities had used all the information available to them to prevent, detect and correct errors; stresses that Member States have an important responsibility with regard to implementing correctly and lawfully the Union budget when they are responsible for the management of Union funds;
Titel
Deplores the fact that the average error rate calculated by the Court of Auditors for the rural development incurred during the past three years was 8,2 % and that in 2013 it was 7,9 % [31]; strongly deplores that it is the highest error rate in a policy area for 2013;
Fastlagt beløb i mio. EUR
Notes that the errors found by the Court of Auditors occurred mainly because beneficiaries did not respect the eligibility requirements, the procurement rules were not properly applied and agri-environmental commitments were not respected;
MS' fejlprocent i årlige kontrolrapporter (%)
Is worried about the fact that the Court of Auditors has found that suspected intentional infringement by private beneficiaries contributed to an eighth of the error rate in rural development and deplores the fact that the specific rural development measure ‘adding value to agricultural and forestry products’ made the most significant contribution to error rate for private investment [32], resulting in the Court of Auditors expressing serious concerns as regards ‘the efficiency and effectiveness of the measure in reaching its policy objectives’;
KOM's fejlprocent/faste korrektion (%)
Concurs with the view expressed by the Court of Auditors [33] that the errors were partly caused by the complexity of rules and the large variety of aid schemes under the 2007-2013 programmes: 46 measures in total for rural development, each with its own rules and requirements;
Bruxelles, regional konkurrenceevne
Acknowledges the increasing level of suspension and interruption of payments by the Commission, which ensures that corrective actions are systematically carried out in cases where deficiencies are identified;
Teknisk bistand
Welcomes the Commission's revised approach to calculate the residual error rate, taking into account all relevant audits and information with a view to adjusting the error rate reported by the Member States;
EFRU Bremen

EFRU Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
Regrets the lack of quality remedial actions by some Member States and the absence of a systematic approach to eradicate the causes of the errors in all the Member States; stresses that there is a lack of preventive action against widespread weakness at Union level;
EFRU Hessen
Acknowledges that the main factors underlying the underimplementation of EUR 4300000 in the chapter 17 04 — Food and feed safety, animal health and welfare and plant health are the EUR 900000 relating to assigned revenue for the different programmes which can be used in 2014 and EUR 2000000 relating to the Emergency Fund; notes that from the latter amount, 50 % or EUR 1000000 was carried forward to 2014 (for addressing bluetongue disease in Germany) and implemented in that year;

Dél-Alföld
Urges the Director-General of DG AGRI to consider the real added value of delaying year after year reservations justified by deficiencies in the LPIS while those deficiencies have clear horizontal dimension;
Közép-Dunántúl
Asks the Commission and the Member States to take the necessary measures to ensure that the IACS is used to its full potential, and in particular to ensure that the eligibility and size of agricultural parcels are correctly assessed and recorded by the Member States, and that immediate remedial action is taken by the Member States where the IACS is found to be affected by systemic errors;
Észak-Magyaroszág
Urges the Commission to shed a light on the facts reported by the Court of Auditors in Ireland and Italy in points 3.24 and 3.25 of its Annual Report for 2013 as regards irregularities in recovering undue payments, to take the necessary corrective measures and to report on those to Parliament by June 2015;
Észak-Alföld
Urges the Commission to take steps to further reduce the backlog of open audit files in the clearance of the accounts procedure so as to enable all audits carried out prior to 2012 to be closed by the end of 2015;
Dunántúl
Asks in particular that the mandate of the Members of the conciliation body involved in the clearance of accounts procedure will be limited in time to an initial term of three years possibly prolonged for maximum one year; requests furthermore that any possible conflicts of interest be avoided in the handling of those files and that the Member States are not represented in the conciliation body when they are directly concerned by financial corrections;
