EcHa acknowledges that its previous practices had shortcomings. the agency notes, however, that the implementation of the new policy, initiated in february 2011 and adopted in september 2011, was not subject to the audit scope of the court. details on the developments which address the recommendations are provided in the replies to the relevant observations and recommendations in this report. x. (b) EcHa acknowledges that its previous practices had shortcomings. the agency notes, however, that the implementation of the new policy, adopted in september 2011, was not subject to the audit scope of the court. details on the developments which address the recommendations are provided in the replies to the relevant observations and recommendations in this report. x. (c) (i) EcHa acknowledges this recommendation. taking into account that the agency as such, or the secretariat, have no direct influence on certain appointments (e.g. Management Board, Board of appeal, committee members directly appointed by Member states) the agency can only and will perform the screening of candidates to be appointed by it. nevertheless, the agency could propose to the respective appointing authority to establish screening procedures before appointment of the concerned member(s). as regards committee members appointed by the Management Board, EcHa has had guidelines for these appointments in place since 2008, and which were turned into eligibility criteria in 2012. the agency is in the process of further developing these criteria for all EcHa bodies. 
Agentúra ECHA uznáva, že jej predchádzajúce postupy mali nedostatky. Agentúra však poznamenáva, že vykonávanie novej politiky, ktorá sa začala pripravovať vo februári 2011 a bola prijatá v septembri 2011, nebolo predmetom auditu Dvora audítorov.
76 x. (c) (iv) the first formal internal decision issued by the (interim) Executive director of EcHa after the establishment of the agency concerned ‘Guidance for staff on conflicts of interest and invitations and gifts as well as declarations of commitment, confidentiality and interests’ (decision Ed/01/2007 of 31 october 2007). the EcHa Management Board adopted on 22 March 2012 its own code of conduct which has been published and which covers, inter alia, aspects such as gifts and invitations. the Management Board invited the EcHa committees and other bodies to agree upon similar codes of conduct and work in this respect is ongoing. x. (c) (v) EcHa acknowledges that it had no specific breach of trust procedures in place at the time of the audit. 
15/2012 – Riadenie konfliktu záujmov vo vybraných agentúrach EÚ 76 X. c) iv) Prvé oficiálne interné rozhodnutie prijaté (dočasným) výkonným riaditeľom agentúry ECHA po zriadení agentúry sa týkalo „Usmernenia pre zamestnancov o konflikte záujmov a pozvaniach a daroch, ako aj o vyhláseniach o záväzku, dôvernosti a záujmoch“ (rozhodnutie ED/01/2007 z 31. októbra 2007).
When evaluating the systems for safeguarding independence in EcHa, one has to consider all the instruments in place. this includes the collegial opinion/ decision-making of the committees to avoid an individually-led process; the inter-disciplinarily and multi-disciplinarily composition of these bodies; the absence of hierarchical links among and between experts, and the fact that minority positions are recorded in case of majority opinions or decisions. decisions by the Member state committee even require unanimity. 
ÚVOD 8. Pri hodnotení systémov na zabezpečenie nezávislosti agentúry ECHA je potrebné zobrať do úvahy všetky existujúce nástroje. Patrí sem aj kolektívne prijímanie stanovísk / rozhodnutí výbormi, aby sa predišlo postupom individuálneho rozhodovania, interdisciplinárne a multidisciplinárne zloženie týchto orgánov, neexistencia hierarchickej väzby medzi odborníkmi a skutočnosť, že v prípade prijatia stanovísk alebo rozhodnutí väčšinou sa zaznamená aj stanovisko menšiny.
Moreover, observers from accredited stakeholder organisations are present in committee meetings. Special report No 15/2012 – Management of conflict of interest in selected Eu agencies 
Na schôdzach výborov sú navyše prítomní pozorovatelia z akreditovaných organizácií zúčastnených strán. Osobitná správa č. 15/2012 – Riadenie konfliktu záujmov vo vybraných agentúrach EÚ
77 10. these rules only apply to staff employed by agencies. it is not possible to apply them to persons designated ‘ad personam’ (not employed by the agencies) such as members of Management Boards and scientific experts in general or to persons representing Ms (members of agencies' Boards representing Ms and institutions). audit sCoPe and aPProaCh 21. the oEcd guidelines (like the Eu staff regulations) only focus on public officials employed by public authorities. oEcd guidelines may be applied to other categories of professionals by analogy. 
77 10. Tieto pravidlá sa uplatňujú len na zamestnancov agentúr. Nie je možné ich uplatňovať na osoby vymenované „ad personam“ (ktoré nie sú zamestnancami agentúrami) ako sú členovia riadiacich rád a vedeckých expertov vo všeobecnosti alebo osôb, ktoré zastupujú členské štáty (členovia rád agentúr zastupujúci členské štáty a inštitúcie).
32. in 2008, the EcHa Management Board adopted a procedure and eligibility criteria to select and invite stakeholder organisations to participate as observers in forum and committees meetings. these criteria were revised in 2011. the commission gave its agreement by the decision of 23 March 2011 (c(2011) 1823 final. rEply of tHE EuropEaN CHEMICalS agENCy as regards the practice at the time of the audit, it should be noted that the fact that the interests declared in the initial declaration had not been assessed at that point in time did not mean that these issues had not been highlighted in spontaneous declarations whenever tasks were assigned. in fact, as is their duty, the staff members concerned have consistently highlighted a conflict of interest regarding files involving the companies mentioned in their declarations and no such tasks have ever been assigned to them. as such, no actual conflict of interest has ever occurred at EcHa. box 4 the examples represent cases that were not assessed at the time of recruitment, while they were subsequently addressed during the course of work at the agency. the agency has duly assessed the issues identified by the court and established that no conflict of interest situation occurred. the issue as such as been addressed with the implementation of the new policy on the management of potential conflicts of interests. 
V prípade, keď menovacím orgánom nie je agentúra, previerky vybraných osôb pred ich vymenovaním by mali byť povinnosťou príslušného menovacieho orgánu. 32. V roku 2008 prijala riadiaca rada agentúry ECHA postup a kvalifikačné kritéria na výber a pozývanie organizácií zúčastnených strán, aby sa zúčastňovali na zasadnutiach fór a výborov ako pozorovatelia.
49. specific declarations of interests submitted in a written form (before, this was done verbally) are now also compulsory for permanent members, before being assigned to a case. 
49. Pred pridelením na určitý prípad sú teraz povinné osobitné vyhlásenia o záujmoch predložené v písomnej podobe aj pre stálych členov (predtým sa robili ústne).
50. the Board of appeal has in the meantime put in place a verification system, and since March 2012, the chair has a confidential list of the tQM’s previous clients to refer to when undertaking the verification. 
50. Odvolacia rada medzitým zaviedla systém overovania a od marca 2012 má predseda dôverný zoznam predchádzajúcich klientov technicky kvalifikovaných členov rady, do ktorého môže nahliadnuť pri overovaní konfliktu záujmov.
51. the agency’s procedures foresee that only the appellant‘s identity is known to the Board of appeal. since there are possibly hundreds of co-registrants affected by a single appeal case, the possibilities to verify any conflicts of interest, and document conflict of interests situations, would otherwise be limited. see also reply to Box 5. 
51. V rámci postupov agentúry sa predpokladá, že odvolacia rada pozná len totožnosť odvolávajúceho sa. Keďže v rámci jedného odvolania môžu byť aj stovky spoluregistrujúcich, možnosti overiť akékoľvek prípadné konflikty záujmov a zdokumentovať situácie konfliktov záujmov by inak boli obmedzené.
EcHa acknowledges that its previous practices had shortcomings. 
Agentúra ECHA uznáva, že jej predchádzajúce postupy mali nedostatky.
With the implementation of the new policy, initiated in february and adopted in september 2011, a new template for staff declarations was taken into use in november 2011 and managers have access to the declarations of their staff since 2012. 
Pri vykonávaní novej politiky, ktorú agentúra iniciovala vo februári a prijala v septembri 2011, sa v novembri 2011 začal používať nový formulár pre vyhlásenia zamestnancov a od roku 2012 majú manažéri prístup k vyhláseniam svojich zamestnancov.
78 52. since the audit, the chair consults a list of companies that the member has worked with on rEacH issues; this list has been provided under condition of confidentiality. it is checked before the assignment of each case. it should be noted however that this list cannot be complete due to the deontological rules of certain professional associations (e.g. attorneys) which means that members cannot reveal their clients’ identity1 box 5 the legislative authority of the European union determined in EcHa’s founding regulation a number of specific independence safeguarding measures for the members of the Board of appeal, including an obligation to provide information on cases in which a member has a personal interest and may, thus, not take part in the proceedings. see article 90(5) and (6) of regulation (Ec) no 1907/2006. these provisions are duly followed by the Board of appeal. additional measures, such as a code of conduct and the obligation to produce annual declarations of interest, have been put in place. the permanent members are also subject to the staff regulations which contain provisions on independence. furthermore, the chair now has the list of previous work activities to refer to (see above). rEply of tHE EuropEaN CHEMICalS agENCy 56. 
Tento zoznam mu bol poskytnutý pod podmienkou zachovania dôvernosti. Tento zoznam sa kontroluje pred zadaním každého prípadu. Je však potrebné poznamenať, že tento zoznam nemôže byť úplný v dôsledku deontolo-gických pravidiel určitých profesijných organizácií (napr. advokátov), to znamená, že členovia týchto organizácií nesmú uvádzať totožnosť svojich klientov.1 ODPOVEĎ EURÓPSKEJ CHEMICKEJ AGENTÚRY 56.
EcHa acknowledges that it has not predefined in detail what the consequences are of having a certain private interest. 
Agentúra ECHA uznáva, že nemala vopred podrobne vymedzené, aké následky má určitý súkromný záujem.
EcHa has relied in the past on a specific case-by-case analysis of each case of potential conflicting interests. 
Agentúra ECHA sa v minulosti spoliehala na analýzu jednotlivých konkrétnych prípadov potenciálneho konfliktu záujmov.
EcHa's new policy on conflicts of interest, of september 2011, includes financial interests, past employment and past consultancy work. the implementation of the new policy addresses the court’s finding. 
Nová politika konfliktov záujmov agentúry ECHA zo septembra 2011 zahŕňa aj finančné záujmy, predchádzajúce zamestnanie a predchádzajúce konzultačné práce. Vykonávanie novej politiky rieši zistenia Dvora audítorov. 61.
61. the first formal internal decision issued by the (interim) Executive director of EcHa after the establishment of the agency concerned ‘Guidance for staff on conflicts of interest and invitations and gifts as well as declarations of commitment, confidentiality and interests’ (decision Ed/01/2007 of 31 october 2007). the EcHa Management Board adopted on 22 March 2012 its own code of conduct, and which has been published. this covers aspects such as, inter alia, gifts and invitations. the Management Board invited the EcHa committees and other bodies to agree upon similar codes of conduct and work in this respect is ongoing. 
Prvé oficiálne interné rozhodnutie prijaté (dočasným) výkonným riaditeľom agentúry ECHA po zriadení agentúry sa týkalo „Usmernenia pre zamestnancov o konfliktoch záujmov a pozvaniach a daroch, ako aj o vyhláseniach o záväzku, dôvernosti a záujmoch“ (rozhodnutie ED/01/2007 z 31. októbra 2007). Riadiaca rada agentúry ECHA prijala 22. marca 2012 svoj vlastný kódex správania, ktorý zverejnila. Tento kódex správania zahŕňa aspekty ako sú okrem iného dary a pozvania.
EcHa acknowledges that it had no specific breach of trust procedures in place at the time of the audit. 
Agentúra ECHA uznáva, že v čase auditu nemala prijaté žiadne konkrétne postupy týkajúce sa porušenia dôvery.
However, general breach of trust procedures, with regard to staff, were in place in the form of disciplinary proceedings and other possible procedures under the Eu staff regulations. these general procedures are also applied by the European commission, e.g. in cases where a staff member fails to declare an interest to the appointing authority. 
Existovali však všeobecné postupy týkajúce sa porušenia dôvery, pokiaľ ide o zamestnancov, vo forme disciplinárnych konaní a ďalších možných postupov podľa služobného poriadku EÚ. Tieto všeobecné postupy sa uplatňujú aj na Európsku komisiu, napr. v prípadoch, keď zamestnanec neoznámi záujem menovaciemu orgánu.
Based on its new policy, EcHa will develop detailed and specific breach of trust provisions (see reply to point 64). 72. see reply to point 54. 
Agentúra ECHA vypracovala na základe svojej novej politiky podrobné a osobitné ustanovenia týkajúce sa porušenia dôvery (pozri odpoveď na bod 64). 72. Pozri odpoveď v bode 54.
76. first indent at the time of the audit, the public minutes of the EcHa bodies did already record for each meeting the chair’s request for specific declarations of interest, as well as any interest declared. 
76. Prvá zarážka V čase auditu už verejne dostupné zápisnice zo zasadnutí orgánov agentúry ECHA obsahovali, za každé zasadnutie, žiadosť predsedu o osobitné vyhlásenia o záujme, ako aj záznam každého vyhlásenia o záujme.
Based on the court’s remark, the minutes will in future also clarify the action taken in the cases where this becomes relevant. 
Na základe poznámky Dvora audítorov sa v zápisniciach v budúcnosti vysvetlia aj kroky podniknuté v prípadoch, keď to bude relevantné.
Based on the remark of the court, this review has, since the end of 2011, been formally documented. box 6 EcHa acknowledges that its previous practices had shortcomings and these have been addressed since the time of the audit. 
Na základe pripomienky Dvora audítorov sa tieto vyhlásenia od konca roku 2011 oficiálne dokumentujú. Rámček 6 Agentúra ECHA uznáva, že v čase auditu mali jej predchádzajúce postupy nedostatky a tieto nedostatky sa už začali riešiť.
1 circumstance confirmed by the finnish Bar association after ad hoc request on this matter. Special report No 15/2012 – Management of conflict of interest in selected Eu agencies 
1 Túto skutočnosť potvrdila Fínska advokátska komora po zadaní ad hoc otázky ohľadne tejto záležitosti. Osobitná správa č. 15/2012 – Riadenie konfliktu záujmov vo vybraných agentúrach EÚ
79 77. second indent training on staff declarations and post-employment duties is organised for all EcHa newcomers on an obligatory basis. attendance for individual sessions is duly limited to newcomers. 
79 77. Druhá zarážka Školenia o vyhláseniach zamestnancov a povinnostiach zamestnancov po skončení zamestnania, ktoré organizuje agentúra ECHA pre všetkých nových zamestnancov, sú povinné.
EcHa acknowledges this observation. However, it should also be noted that EcHa, unlike Eu institutions, can only offer temporary positions to staff. the individuals must have the opportunity to take on jobs in industry, for example, after having worked with an agency. as regards the issue of movement of personnel between the public and private sector, it is noted that agencies that provide scientific and technical advice or decisions as part of regulatory processes will always need staff and experts with experience from companies and associations operating in these markets. the policies and procedures on conflict of interest should not prevent the agencies from having access to such expertise. otherwise, the problem may shift towards an inferior (scientific/technical) assessment with negative consequences for the life of citizens and a consequent loss of trust by the general public in the regulators’ work. see also the reply to point 98 / recommendation 9. 
Je však potrebné poznamenať, že agentúra ECHA môže, na rozdiel od inštitúcií EÚ, ponúkať zamestnancom len dočasné pozície. Po skončení práce pre agentúru musia mať jednotlivci možnosť zamestnať sa napríklad v priemysle. Pokiaľ ide o pohyb zamestnancov medzi verejným a súkromným sektorom, je potrebné poznamenať, že agentúry, ktoré poskytujú vedecké a technické poradenstvo alebo prijímajú rozhodnutia ako súčasť regulačných postupov, budú vždy potrebovať zamestnancov a odborníkov so skúsenosťami zo spoločností a združení pôsobiacich na týchto trhoch.
82. in line with the commission decision on outside activities and assignments of 28 april 2004, which EcHa adopted by analogy in 2008, staff members are asked to sign a declaration, acknowledging their duties under article 16 of the staff regulations, when they leave the service of the agency. the form has been improved since the audit visit in october 2011 (new form taken in use in May 2012). 
82. V rozhodnutí, ktoré agentúra ECHA prijala v roku 2008 v súlade s rozhodnutím Komisie z 28. apríla 2004 o externých činnostiach a úlohách, sa od zamestnancov vyžaduje, aby podpísali vyhlásenie, v ktorom potvrdia, že berú na vedomie svoje povinnosti po skončení služobného pomeru v agentúre podľa článku 16 služobného poriadku.
With regard to the ‘post-employment’ of experts and members of the Management Board, who are not staff members and hence not employed by the agency, EcHa has no legal power to impose conditions on their freedom of employment after the end of their mandate. agency policies or procedures in this respect would thus have no valid legal basis, nor would they have any impact, as the agency could not enforce them. rEply of tHE EuropEaN CHEMICalS agENCy 86. agencies cannot impose on an individual an absolute prohibition to take certain posts after having worked at the said agency. this would conflict with the current interpretation of the staff regulations (constitutional right to work, no absolute prohibition). 
Pokiaľ ide o obdobie po skončení služobného pomeru odborníkov a členov riadiacej rady, ktorí nie sú zamestnancami agentúry, agentúra ECHA nemá právomoc stanovovať podmienky týkajúce sa slobody zamestnanca zamestnať sa po skončení ich mandátu. Politiky a postupy agentúry by v tejto súvislosti nemali žiadny platný právny základ, ani by nemali žiadny vplyv, pretože agentúra by ich nemohla presadzovať.
EcHa acknowledges this observation. the agency addresses post-employment aspects more systematically than it used to, within its new policy on the management of (potential) conflicts of interests. 
Agentúra ECHA berie na vedomie túto pripomienku. Vo svojej novej politike riadenia (potenciálnych) konfliktov záujmov sa agentúra zaoberá aspektami po skončení zamestnania systematickejšie ako predtým.
Moreover, since May 2012, an improved form for declaring post-employment circumstances has been taken into use. 
Navyše od mája 2012 sa začal používať vylepšený formulár vyhlásenie okolností po skončení zamestnania.
ConClusions and reCoMMendations 89. EcHa acknowledges that at the time of the audit, shortcomings were identified when benchmarking the agency’s policies and procedures against oEcd guidelines. it is, however, important to recall that policies and procedures adopted and/or implemented after the court completed its fieldwork (october 2011) have not been evaluated. a significant number of recommendations have thus been addressed by the time of publication of this report. 
ZÁVERY A ODPORÚČANIA 89. Agentúra ECHA berie na vedomie, že pri porovnaní politík a postupov agentúry s usmerneniami OECD sa v čase auditu zistili nedostatky. Je však potrebné pripomenúť, že politiky a postupy, ktoré sa prijali a/alebo zaviedli po skončení audítorskej práce Dvora audítorov v teréne (október 2011), neboli zatiaľ vyhodnotené.
With regard to the finding that ‘none of the selected agencies adequately manages conflict of interests situations’, it deserves clarification that EcHa complies with its founding regulation and other laws that apply to the agency, such as the Eu financial regulation and the Eu staff regulations. in addition, EcHa adopted its own procedures and policies - taking into account its particular governance and legal requirements from its founding legal act. 
V čase uverejnenia tejto správy už teda bol značný počet odporúčaní riešený. Pokiaľ ide o zistenie, že „ani jedna z vybraných agentúr neriadi situáciu konfliktu záujmov primerane“, je potrebné objasniť, že agentúra ECHA spĺňa požiadavky zakladajúceho nariadenia a ostatných právnych predpisov, ktoré sa uplatňujú na agentúru, ako je nariadenie EÚ o rozpočtových pravidlách a služobný poriadok EÚ.
EcHa has not identified an instance where a regulatory decision or scientific/technical opinion would have been compromised by an undue interest. Special report No 15/2012 – Management of conflict of interest in selected Eu agencies 
Agentúra ECHA nezistila žiadny prípad, kedy by regulačné rozhodnutie alebo vedecké/ technické stanovisko boli ovplyvnené nenáležitým záujmom. Osobitná správa č. 15/2012 – Riadenie konfliktu záujmov vo vybraných agentúrach EÚ
81 recommendation 6 at the time of the audit, EcHa had breach of trust procedures in place with regard to its staff, while the rules of procedure of the scientific committees also included instruments to deal with a breach of the obligations incumbent on the experts. 
81 Odporúčanie 6 V čase auditu mala už mala agentúra ECHA postupy týkajúce sa porušenia dôvery jej zamestnancami, zatiaľ čo pravidlá postupu vedeckých výborov zahŕňajú aj nástroje na riešenie porušenia povinností uložených odborníkom.
Based on its new policy, EcHa will develop specific breach of trust provisions. see also reply to points 64-65. the following measures have been taken since the audit in october 2011: — new policy of september 2011 includes general provisions with regard to breach of trust procedures for the Management Board, committees and forum, but also for the Boa and EcHa staff; — new implementing rules to the staff regulations regarding administrative inquiries and disciplinary proceedings were adopted by the Management Board on 23 March 2012. recommendation 7 the minutes for each meeting of the EcHa bodies did already record, at the time of the audit, the chair’s request for specific declarations of interest as well as any interest declared. 
Pozri aj odpoveď na body 64 – 65. Od auditu v októbri 2011 boli prijaté tieto opatrenia: — nová politika zo septembra 2011, ktorá zahŕňa aj všeobecné ustanovenia o postupoch týkajúcich sa porušenia dôvery pre riadiacu radu, výbory a fórum, ale aj odvolaciu radu a zamestnancov agentúry ECHA, — nové vykonávacie predpisy k pracovnému poriadku týkajúce sa administratívnych vyšetrovaní a disciplinárnych konaní, ktoré prijala riadiaca rada 23. marca 2012.
