Points out that the residual error rate noted by the Moore and Stephens audit report commissioned by EuropeAid is higher, at 3,63 %, than the annual error rate estimated by the Court of Auditors; stresses that it contradicts the argument put forward by the Commission that the error rate is necessarily lower at the end of a period as errors are corrected;
nõuab tungivalt, et komisjon tagaks, et kõik pingutused, mida tehakse info- ja kommunikatsioonitehnoloogia arhitektuuri konsolideerimiseks, oleksid suunatud üldtunnustatud avatud standarditele, mida kasutavad paljud müüjad ja mida saab rakendada avatud lähtekoodiga tarkvara puhul; tuletab meelde, et tänu salvestuskoha geograafilisele asukohale on lihtsam tagada, et kohapeal hoitavale e-postile ei pääse välisriigi huvirühmad ligi;
Urges the Commission to efficiently correct the errors detected and to perform the recoveries efficiently;
Väliste pakkujate tehtud uuringud ning nendepoolne nõustamine/konsultatsioon
Notes that the relatively good score of the Commission in the external relations area could be at least partly explained by the fact that in two areas – budget support and Union contributions to multi-donor projects carried out by international organisations such as the United Nations – the nature of the payment conditions limits the extent to which transactions are prone to errors;
märgib, et komisjon ei suutnud esitada Euroopa Parlamendile masinloetavas vormis, näiteks Exceli tabeli või CSV-failina, komisjoni ABACi süsteemist võetud selget kokkuvõtlikku loetelu, mis sisaldaks aastate lõikes, alates 2009. aastast ja lõpetades 2013. aastaga, kõigi uuringute teemasid ja kõigi väliste pakkujate poolt komisjoni tellimusel tehtud väliste nõustamiste/konsultatsioonide konkreetseid küsimusi koos väliste pakkujate nimedega ja riigiga, kus on vastava pakkuja asukoht, ja kuupäevaga, mil eelarvevahendite käsutajad sidusid eelarveassigneeringud uuringute või välisnõustamiste jaoks kulukohustustega; soovib, et see loetelu esitataks eelarvekontrollikomisjonile 1. maiks 2014. aastal;
Notes with satisfaction that the supervisory and control system of DG ELARG has been declared by the Court of Auditors to be effective although the method used for the calculation of the residual error rate has still to be ameliorated;
ELi eelarvest rahastatud tegevuste tulemuslikkus
Regrets that shortcomings persist in EuropeAid’s ex ante checks and in the supervisory and control system and that, according to the findings of the Court of Auditors, the Commission’s 2011 reorganisation continues adversely to affect the activity of its Internal Audit Capacity; regrets that the supervisory and control systems of EuropeAid are only partially effective, which means that they fail to detect and correct material errors;
Juhtimiskavad ja iga-aastased tegevusaruanded
Endorses the recommendations of the Court of Auditors that the Commission should ensure timely clearance of expenditure, promote better document management by implementing partners and beneficiaries, improve the management of contract awarding procedures by setting out clear selection criteria and documenting the evaluation process better, enhance the quality of expenditure checks carried out by external auditors and apply a consistent and robust methodology for the external relations directorates-general to calculate the residual error rate;
märgib, et finantsmääruse (EL, Euratom) nr 966/2012 artikli 38 lõike 3 punktis e sätestatud eesmärgid, mille saavutamist tuleks mõõta näitajate alusel, on peadirektorid suuresti oma juhtimiskavadesse üle võtnud, ja juhib tähelepanu sellele, et peadirektorid peaksid oma iga-aastastes tegevusaruannetes andma aru selle kohta, millised olid saavutatud tulemused ja mil määral oli neil tulemustel soovitud mõju;
Welcomes the performance audits produced by the Court of Auditors, in particular in its special reports concerning the European Union’s aid to the Democratic Republic of Congo, Egypt and Palestine, as they assess whether the management of the Commission accords with the principles of efficiency, effectiveness and economy; suggests, in light of these reports, that the Commission and the Court of Auditors work closely together to further develop both measurable indicators and the methodology of performance audits, regarding Union funded projects with a high political nature, such as those oriented towards strengthening the respect for human rights, the rule of law and democracy, where a decision to continue or discontinue a project does not only depend on actual results in a given time frame;
tunneb heameelt asjaolu üle, et komisjon lisas eesmärkide ja näitajate vähendamiseks 2014. aasta eelarve projektile (vt COM(2013) 450) lisatud töödokumenti (1. osa) tegevuskulusid puudutavad avaldused programmide kohta;
Supports the Commission’s continuing efforts to shift from an input-based to a performance- and impact-oriented approach and urges the adoption of specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and timed benchmarks for all programmes in Heading 4 as advocated by the Court of Auditors; expresses its hope that these programmes will not be affected by the same shortcomings as those audited in this year’s report;
nõustub kontrollikoja kriitikaga (vt 2012. aasta aruande punkti 10.9) selle kohta, et kõrgetasemelistest poliitikaalastest või seadusandlikest dokumentidest üle võetud eesmärgid on tihti liiga abstraktsed ning seetõttu ei saa neid kasutada juhtimiskavades ja iga-aastastes tegevusaruannetes;
Notes the problems the Court of Auditors has identified with regard to the management of social allowances and urges the Commission to implement all recommendations; welcomes the steps the Commission has taken so far and encourages it to speed up the roll-out of its new programme to resolve it;
rõhutab, et need kõrgetasemelistest poliitikaalastest dokumentidest üle võetud eesmärgid puudutavad sageli poliitikavaldkondi, mis ei ole liidu ainupädevuses; palub seetõttu, et peadirektorid seaksid eesmärgid, mis vastavad täpselt liidu pädevustele, ning et seejuures järgitaks täielikult subsidiaarsuse põhimõtet;
Recalls its recommendation to re-use materials utilised in election observation missions in other such missions or Union delegations in order to reduce their budgetary impact and maximise the use of budgetary resources;
peab kahetsusväärseks, et hinnangutes ei leidunud kasulikke tõendeid, mis kinnitaksid iga-aastastes tegevusaruannetes poliitiliste edusammude kohta kirjutatut, ja et selle põhjus oli peamiselt asjaolu, et hindamisel keskenduti pigem operatiivsetele küsimustele kui tulemustele, või see, et komisjon kahtleb liikmesriikide ametiasutuste esitatud teabe kvaliteedis;
Development and Cooperation
Euroopa Liidu toimimise lepingu artikli 318 kohane hindamisaruanne
Appreciates that more than 1350 projects were evaluated in 2012 in view of relevance and project design, efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability under the Commission’s Results Oriented Monitoring system; notes a decrease of projects with major problems from 8 % (in 2010 and 2011) to 5 % in 2012 [36];
peab kahetsusväärseks asjaolu, et komisjon esitas - selle asemel, et keskenduda liidu peamiste eesmärkide saavutamisele - vastavalt tookordsetele eelarveridadele kõikides kuluvaldkondades, mis kuulusid mitmeaastase finantsraamistiku 2007-2013 alla, Euroopa Liidu programmide kohta rea hindamiste kokkuvõtteid;
Notes with concern that the number of cases OLAF started investigating in relation to EuropeAid/DG DEVCO managed projects has increased from 33 (in 2011) to 45 in 2012 while acknowledging that the number of new cases remained still lower than in any year between 2005 and 2010;
tuletab veel kord meelde, et Euroopa Parlament nõudis komisjonilt 17. aprillil 2013. aastal tungivalt artikli 318 kohase hindamisaruande struktuuri muutmist „selliselt, et sisepoliitika eraldatakse välispoliitikast ning sisepoliitikaga seotud osas keskendutakse strateegiale „Euroopa 2020” […] ja […] komisjon peaks rõhutama juhtalgatuste elluviimisel saavutatud edusamme” [45];
Welcomes the Commission’s ‘Transparent Aid’ initiative [37] providing comprehensive and timely information about humanitarian and development aid and potentially helping to reduce double funding;
tunneb heameelt asjaolu üle, et komisjon kavatseb oma peadirektoraatide iga-aastastes tegevusaruannetes parandada tulemustest aruandmist, siduda iga-aastased juhtimiskavad ja iga-aastased tegevusaruanded senisest rohkem artikli 318 kohase hindamisaruandega ning võtta hindamisaruande vastu koos koondaruandega;
Welcomes the introduction by EuropeAid/DG DEVCO, in 2012, of a coherent methodology for the calculation of the estimated residual error rate (RER), i.e. the level of errors which have evaded all checks to prevent, detect and correct errors; is satisfied that the Court of Auditors found the methodology used to estimate the RER appropriate and useful;
tunneb heameelt komisjoni kavatsuse üle koostada ja liigendada oma hindamisaruanne uue tulemusraamistiku alusel, mis loodi mitmeaastase finantsraamistikuga 2014-2020; rõhutab aga veel kord, et see tulemusraamistik peaks hõlmama kolme järgmist põhielementi: programmide eesmärkide täitmine (tulemused), programmide usaldusväärne juhtimine komisjoni ja liikmesriikide poolt ning see, kuidas aitavad programmide tulemused ja usaldusväärne juhtimine kaasa liidu peamiste eesmärkide saavutamisele;
Expresses concern however about the level of the RER, estimated to be 3,6 % for EuropeAid/DG DEVCO, and calls on the Commission to reinforce efforts to better analyse, document and explain the main types of errors and to take appropriate measures, including consultation with relevant stakeholders, to reduce errors in the future in particular in the relation to payments to international organisations which accounted for 38 % of the overall RER [38];
tuletab meelde, et liidu vahendite usaldusväärse finantsjuhtimise tagamiseks haldab komisjon menetlusest kõrvalejätmise juhtumeid sisaldavat keskandmebaasi, kuhu kantakse üksused, kes on liidupoolsest rahastamisest kõrvale jäetud kas maksejõuetuse, pettust või korruptsiooni käsitlevate lõplike kohtuotsuste või huvide konfliktide tõttu või otsuste tõttu, mis on seotud sellega, et avaliku sektori hankija on kindlaks teinud ametialaste käitumisreeglite jämeda rikkumise; peab kahetsusväärseks, et komisjoni hallatavale menetlusest kõrvalejätmise juhtumeid sisaldavale keskandmebaasile ei pääse ligi ei üldsus ega Euroopa Parlamendi liikmed; tuletab meelde, et samasugune, Maailmapanga hallatav kõrvale jäetud ettevõtete andmebaas on üldsusele ligipääsetav; palub komisjonil teha menetlusest kõrvalejätmise juhtumeid sisaldav keskandmebaas üldsusele ligipääsetavaks.
Research and other internal policies
ELT C 331, 14.11.2013, lk 10.
Observes that the main funding instruments in this policy group are the Research Framework Programmes amounting to EUR 7957 million or 68 % of operational expenditure and the Lifelong Learning Programme amounting to EUR 1529 million or 13 % of operational expenditure;
EÜT L 11, 16.1.2003, lk 1.
Observes that, of the 150 transactions audited by the Court of Auditors, 73 (49 %) were affected by errors; notes that, on the basis of the errors which it has quantified, the Court of Auditors estimates the most likely error rate to be 3,9 %, and that, according to the Court of Auditors, cleared advances – a new component of the sample for 2012 (see points 1.6, 1.7 and 1.15 of the Annual Report) – account for 2,1 %; observes that this means that this area of auditing (research and other internal policies) is around the materiality threshold;
ELT L 347, 20.12.2013, lk 320.
Notes that the Court of Auditors describes the supervisory and control systems for the Framework Programmes of Research which it has audited as partially effective, while it rates the audited supervisory and control system for the Lifelong Learning Programme as effective;

Stresses that the errors have been the same for years: primarily the charging of ineligible costs;
COM(2013) 682, 26. september 2013.
Welcomes the fact that the annual activity reports of the directorates-general which the Court of Auditors has analysed contain an appropriate assessment of financial management in terms of the regularity of the underlying transactions: notes that the information submitted largely confirms the observations and conclusions of the Court of Auditors;
COM(2013) 934, 13. detsember 2013.
Considers it incomprehensible that the Court of Auditors still finds a significant error rate in the cost statements drawn up by independent auditors; considers, therefore, that the Commission and Member States should supply auditors with all the necessary background material and training material to facilitate correct auditing of cost statements; stresses that certified cost statements make sense only if the Commission can rely on them;

Joins the Court of Auditors in welcoming the simplification measures introduced by the Commission from 2011 (e.g. for the methods used by beneficiaries to calculate average staff costs) and the report on the subject submitted by the Commission [39]; calls on the Commission to update this report for the 2013 discharge procedure;

Kontrollikoja 18. detsembri 2013. aasta pressiteade ECA/13/47 ühtset auditit käsitleva eriaruande nr 16/2013 kohta.
Learns from the 2012 activity report for research and innovation that the prime concern in the administration of research is to strike an acceptable balance between the attractiveness of the programme to participants and the justified requirements of financial control; notes that, in this connection, the Director-General stated that a procedure designed to attain a residual error rate of 2 % under all circumstances is not viable [41];
KOM(2005) 12, 26. jaanuar 2005, lk 6.
Is concerned that the Court of Auditors, as in relation to the 2011 financial year, has identified substantial quantifiable errors in projects under the programme in support of Information and Communications Technologies; notes that the Commission has devised a special audit strategy for non-research projects, in accordance with which – up to 2017 – 215 audits of non-research projects are to be performed; calls on the Commission to report whether the wrongly paid EUR 470000 has been recovered;

COM(2013) 682/2, 30. september 2013.
OLAF
Vt teatise (COM(2013) 682/2) punkte 4 ja 5.
Observes that the President of the Commission still has not accounted to Parliament in plenary for the loss of office of Health Commissioner John Dalli on 16 October 2012; insists on the necessity of respecting the presumption of innocence and notes that the serious accusations of corruption levelled at the Commissioner by the tobacco industry, which he has always rejected, remain unproven to this day;

Strongly deplores the fact that OLAF’s investigation of the accusations has been seriously flawed, according to an analysis by the OLAF Supervisory Committee, and that OLAF refuses to explain matters and is also not being called to account in this respect;
ELT L 347, 11.12.2006, lk 1.
Draws attention to the reversal of the burden of proof in this case, such that the focus is not on the culpability of the accused but it is necessary for the accused himself to seek to prove his innocence before a series of courts; draws attention to the fact that Mr Dalli has contested the voluntary character and the lawfulness of his resignation before the General Court of the European Court of Justice which might result in an award of damages to the detriment of the taxpayer and has also launched an action in defamation against Swedish Match before the Belgian authorities;
2012. aasta aruande punkti 3.9 joonealune märkus 15.
Calls for complete clarification and for full and prompt cooperation by the Commission with the courts in Belgium and Malta in the Dalli case and for an independent inquiry into the methods used by OLAF in this case;
Teatavad kohustuslikud majandamisnõuded ning maa hea põllumajandus- ja keskkonnaseisund.
Is worried about the high financial indicators for opening an investigation included in the Investigative Policy Priorities of OLAF for the years 2012 and 2013 that are in the customs sector: EUR 1 million, in the agriculture sectors: EUR 100000 for Sapard and above EUR 250000 for agriculture; in the structural funds: EUR 500000 in the European Social Fund as well as in the Cohesion Fund and EUR 1 million in ERDF, in the external aid and centralised expenditure sectors: EUR 50000 and also in the Union staff sector: EUR 10000; criticises that it is in the responsibility of the managing DGs to care about possible fraud cases below these financial indicators without having qualified staff at their disposal; sees taxpayers money and the financial interest of the Union endangered;

Notes that it has not received eight months after the adoption of Parliament’s resolution [42] on the protection of the financial interest 2011 in plenary, the legal analysis of the legality of recordings of private phone conversations during administrative investigations concerning members of the Union institutions and Union officials conducted by OLAF requested in paragraph 75 of that resolution;

Is deeply concerned about the findings of the Supervisory Committee that OLAF has not established a prior legality check for investigative measures other than those specifically listed in OLAF’s Instructions to Staff on Investigative Procedures (ISIP); notes that this endangers respect for the fundamental rights of, and procedural guarantees relating to, the persons concerned;
Peamiselt tehti kindlaks järgmised puudused: puudused rahastamiskõlblikkuse tingimusi ja kohustusi käsitlevate halduskontrollide tegemisel (näiteks rahastamiskõlbmatu käibemaksu mitteavastamine või topeltrahastamine), kulude põhjendatuse puudulik hindamine (Saksamaa (Brandenburg ja Berliin), Poola, Rumeenia ja Rootsi), puudused vähendamiste ja sissemaksenõuete rakendamisel, puudused nõuetele vastavuse kontrollide kontrollisüsteemide kavandamisel ja rakendamisel: heade põllumajandus- ja keskkonnatingimuste ebapiisavad standardid või nitraatide direktiivi ebakorrektne rakendamine.
Notes that breaches of essential procedural requirements during preparatory investigations could affect the legality of the final decision taken on the basis of investigations by OLAF; assesses this as potentially high-risk, since breaches would thus incur the legal liability of the Commission;
Nõukogu 21. juuni 2005. aasta määrus (EÜ) nr 1290/2005 ühise põllumajanduspoliitika rahastamise kohta (ELT L 209, 11.8.2005, lk 1).
Deems the direct participation of OLAF’s Director-General in some investigative tasks, inter alia, interviews of witnesses, unacceptable; points out that the Director-General could be faced with a conflict of interest, since, under Article 90(a) of the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union and Article 23(1) of the ISIP he is the authority who receives complaints against OLAF’s investigations and decides whether or not appropriate action is taken with regard to any failure to respect procedural guarantees;
ELT L 308, 16.11.2013, lk 27.
Notes with concern the large number of suspected fraud cases which the Commission has reported to OLAF but which OLAF dismissed and referred back to the Commission; observes that no record is kept of the follow-up measures taken by the Commission; calls on OLAF at least to monitor the follow-up measures to these cases; calls for an analysis of the suspected fraud cases dismissed and referred back to the Commission in 2012 and 2013;
Ühise põllumajanduspoliitika meetmete põhi- ja lisakontrollide täpne kirjeldus ning kindla määraga korrektsioonide määrad, mida tuleb lisas esitatud kriteeriumide alusel vastavalt konkreetsele juhule kohaldada, tuleks kindlaks määrata komisjoni suunistes, mis põhinevad olemasolevatel suunistel, mis on kindlalt juurdunud ja võimaldanud komisjonil saavutada enamiku liikmesriikide poolt vaidlustatud juhtude osas Euroopa Kohtus positiivse otsuse.
Is alarmed by the results of two surveys among OLAF staff and the shortcomings which have become apparent in the functioning of OLAF since the reorganisations; calls on the Court of Auditors to perform a follow-up audit and to follow up its Special Report 2/2011 in order to investigate the impact of the reorganisation;
