Shares the view of the Court of Auditors that best practices from national experiences should have been used to improve the management and definition of the programmes;
poziva Komisijo in države članice, naj svoja prizadevanja okrepijo z zmanjšanjem upravne obremenitve in zagotavljanjem izplačil v razumnem časovnem okviru;
Stresses, however, that not all national experiences can be extrapolated at Union level, as the Union transport sector operates in a more complex and multimodal environment; notes that it faces enormous constraints (interoperability, different national regulations, sectors differently open to competition) which need additional measures other than financial support (regulatory, political will, proper implementation and enforcement);
poziva Komisijo in države članice, naj zagotovijo, da se bodo za prihodnje programsko obdobje 2014–2020 pridobile ustrezne in zanesljive informacije, ki bodo olajšale upravljanje in spremljanje ukrepa ter pokazale, koliko odobrena pomoč prispeva k izpolnjevanju glavnih prednostnih nalog EU; meni, da bi morali biti cilji za ustvarjanje delovnih mest realistični, število ustvarjenih delovnih mest pa natančno spremljano; meni, da bi se morali ukrepi v celotnem programskem obdobju bolje upravljati, zlasti kadar postane očitno, da zastavljeni cilji ne bodo doseženi;
Recalls in that sense its resolution of 15 December 2011 on a Single European Transport Area pointing out that modal transfers cannot be achieved by means of legislation, but only by exploiting a functioning infrastructure, intrinsic advantages and strengths and incentives;
Del XXI
Is of the opinion that the existence of a reduced number of multimodal players (main target of beneficiaries) might have contributed to the poor number of projects presented to the calls; believes that this can be a result of intrinsic behaviour of transport players that tend to operate in a single mode; calls on the Commission to look for improving participation of single mode operators that could also benefit from future initiatives; notes, however, the Court of Auditors’ remark on the complexity of the programme as pointed by the beneficiaries who might have discouraged potential additional interested;
posebno poročilo Računskega sodišča št. 7/2013 z naslovom „Ali je Evropski sklad za prilagoditev globalizaciji pri ponovnem vključevanju presežnih delavcev ustvaril dodano vrednost EU?“
Considers that a poorly adapted regulatory framework together with a lack of proper information and communication of the programmes are also elements that need to be taken into account when analysing the programmes’ weaknesses; calls on the Commission to seek solutions to improve and enlarge potential beneficiaries by reducing complexity and administrative burden as well as improving communication of future actions;
poudarja, da revizijam uspešnosti poleg preverjanja zakonitosti in pravilnosti pripisuje velik pomen, zato pozdravlja posebno poročilo Računskega sodišča, ki navaja pozitivne in negativne vidike uspešnosti ter tako predstavlja uravnoteženo splošno stališče;
Recalls the particularity of Marco Polo, a programme based on performance where funding disbursements are conditional upon results; notes that this unique character, positive in terms of management of Union funds, together with complexity of the sector and the economic downturn has contributed to a underperformance of the programme;
se kljub temu zaveda, da je mogoče uspešnost oceniti samo, če so bili v ustrezni uredbi opredeljeni cilji in kazalniki; zato poziva Komisijo, naj pri pripravi novih zakonodajnih predlogov upošteva stališče Parlamenta o revizijah uspešnosti;
Stresses, however, that the Commission should have been particularly attentive when measuring the results of beneficiaries; notes that the Commission did improve on the control of results;
pozdravlja dejstvo, da so bili večini presežnih delavcev, ki so bili žrtve množičnega odpuščanja zaradi globalizacije in krize in so prejeli pomoč iz Evropskega sklada za prilagoditev globalizaciji (ESPG), ponujeni prilagojeni in usklajeni ukrepi;
Emphasises the need for programmes based on results to have a strong methodology for measuring the achievement of the objectives; shares, in that sense, the remark made by the Court of Auditors that the methodology for calculating performance should need to be updated and accurate;
z zadovoljstvom ugotavlja, da so bili ukrepi ESPG v splošnem dobro usklajeni z nacionalnimi ukrepi in ukrepi Evropskega socialnega sklada (ESS);
Believes that the development of a strong methodology can serve also to provide information for potential operators that could be interested in modal shift, in particular SMEs with lack of resources to develop these tools;
spodnje argumente držav članic, zakaj niso želele uporabiti ESPG, obravnava zelo resno:
Recalls that Marco Polo projects were particularly sensitive to the economic crisis and that this led to a lower number of projects supported by the programme than expected; notes that as the Marco Polo project is a result oriented programme, the decrease of transport also impacted on the effective number of freight transferred to other modes;
višja stopnja sofinanciranja iz ESS (v nekaterih primerih do 85 %) v primerjavi z ESPG (do 65 %) odvrača od uporabe ESPG, zato pozdravlja dejstvo, da bo Komisija stopnje sofinanciranja za naslednje obdobje ESPG znova preučila,
Considers that a sufficient analysis of the market needs pointed out by the Court of Auditors as a weakness could not be sufficient to ensure better results to the effectiveness of the Marco Polo programmes; urges the Commission to provide more in-depth analysis for future programmes involving a modal shift;
ESS se lahko izvaja hitreje kot ESPG ali pa so nacionalne uprave z ESS bolje seznanjene,
Considers, however, that the absence of market demand cannot be seen as an impediment for political action, as one of the objectives of Union transport policy is to try to address unbalanced modal split and create incentives for market takeoff; calls on the Commission to take into consideration the higher risks involved and to learn from the unsuccessful experiences and combine financial incentives, possibly also with financial aid for infrastructure as pointed by the Court of Auditors, as well as with other regulatory measures;
ESPG ne ponuja vnaprejšnjega financiranja,
Is concerned about the Court of Auditors’ comment regarding possible situations of ‘reverse modal shift’ as an indirect effect of adopting new environmental legislation (e.g. sulphur rules); calls on the Commission to analyse trends in possibly reversing shift modes, to address solutions and to cooperate closely with the Directorates involved in order to have a systemic approach when drafting legislation and designing new financial support programmes;
strožji pogoji ESPG, zlasti merilo v zvezi s trgovino kot glavno merilo za ukrepe pri vlogah, ki se sklicujejo na globalizacijo,
Regrets that the Eastern Member States have not been involved in the projects since its beginning and highlights the lack of incentives in those countries, as they normally prefer applying for Regional/Cohesion funds with higher co-financing rates and less administrative burden; welcomes, in this sense, the agreement between the legislators on CEF as Cohesion Countries will be able to apply for Union funding on freight services under the same conditions as for the Cohesion fund;
dolgotrajen postopek za odobritev vlog za pomoč ESPG;
Part XVIII
vseeno poudarja, da se ESPG in ESS dopolnjujeta; poziva Komisijo, naj jasno utemelji ločitev teh skladov, saj je ESS v nekaterih primerih primernejši za pravočasno doseganje rezultatov in omogoča višje stopnje sofinanciranja in vnaprejšnjega financiranja; prav tako ugotavlja, da evropska javnost v nekaterih državah članicah ESS pozna bolje kot ESPG [27];
Special Report No 4/2013 of the Court of Auditors entitled ‘EU Cooperation with Egypt in the Field of Governance’
poudarja, da bi bilo z vidika dobrega finančnega poslovodenja koristno, če bi bilo mogoče stopnjo ponovnega vključevanja brezposelnih na trg delovne sile po njihovi udeležbi v ukrepih ESPG zanesljivo ugotoviti; meni, da bi morala uredba o ESPG (Uredba (ES) št. 1927/2006 Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta [28]) zato države članice spodbuditi, da stopnjo ponovnega vključevanja merijo tudi po koncu izvajanja ukrepov, in da bi morali biti ti podatki primerljivi in po možnosti povezani s kvantitativnimi cilji;
Welcomes the Court of Auditors’ Special Report on ‘EU Cooperation with Egypt in the field of Governance’ and sets out its comments and recommendations below:
v zvezi s tem pozdravlja dejstvo, da nova uredba o ESPG (Uredba (EU) št. 1309/2013 Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta [29]), ki jo je Komisija predlagala za programsko obdobje 2014–2020, vsebuje cilj za ponovno vključevanje, in sicer 50 % presežnih delavcev po 12 mesecih izvajanja ukrepov; se pa sprašuje, na čem ta stopnja temelji;
Observes that as regards reforms in public finance management, a support programme of EUR 4 million, funded by the Union, France and Romania has been put in place to combat corruption, money laundering and to foster asset recovery in Egypt; notes that this programme began its implementation phase in July 2011, that it runs until July 2014 and that an extension will be requested to the Union as the main donor; notes that a number of 166 prosecutors, law enforcement personnel and financial intelligence staff received in-depth training; acknowledges that the programme received a positive independent Monitoring Report in December 2012;
je odločno prepričan, da bi bilo treba pomoč iz ESPG uporabiti predvsem za usposabljanje in prekvalifikacijo ter druge ciljno usmerjene ukrepe za trg delovne sile, ne pa za dohodkovno podporo, ki jo tako ali tako izplačujejo nacionalni zavodi za zaposlovanje; zato poziva, da se dohodkovna podpora omeji na 25 % ukrepov ESPG;
Acknowledges that for the period 2007-2013, Egypt received approximately EUR 1000 million of Union support: 60 % through sector budget support (SBS) to the Egyptian government and the rest through projects agreed with the Egyptian authorities; notes that budget support is the main mechanism of the Commission for implementing assistance to Egypt; concludes, however, that overall, the EEAS and Commission have not been able to effectively manage and control Union support to improve governance in Egypt;
poudarja, da bi morala finančna pomoč Unije ustvarjati evropsko dodano vrednost; zato poziva, da bi bilo treba v letnem postopku razrešnice primerjati evropsko dodano vrednost ukrepov ESPG in ukrepov ESS, in sicer njene kvantitativne in kvalitativne vidike, da se zagotovi najbolj učinkovite meritve rezultatov politike oziroma ponudi razloge za neupoštevanje teh podatkov; se strinja s stališčem Računskega sodišča, da je obdobje 41 tednov od vložitve prošnje za pomoč iz ESPG do njenega izplačila nesprejemljivo dolgo in da odvrača države prosilke v stiski, ki potrebujejo solidarnost Unije; se vseeno zaveda pojasnil, ki jih je Komisija vključila v svoje odgovore; vse udeležene strani spominja na odločitev proračunskega organa Unije, da ESPG ne bo vključil v večletni finančni okvir, kar pomeni, da morajo biti vse vloge obravnavane po posebnem proračunskem postopku; ne glede na zgornjo razlago poziva vse udeležene strani, naj preidejo na elektronske vloge in dodatne informacije, posredovane po predložitvi vloge, omejijo na izjemne primere, nikakor pa naj ne bodo posredovane pozneje kot tri mesece po predložitvi vloge;
Notes that asset recovery became a priority under the Morsi administration and that this has led to important progress; observes that asset recovery requires high quality judicial efforts following international standards, thus leading to improvements in procedures and financial management; observes that Egypt still lists low on the corruption-index, but efforts have not been in vain and progress is visible; acknowledges that with Union assistance, a draft law on the protection of witnesses has been completed recently and is ready for adoption, as are two other laws concerning conflicts of interest and access to documents;
vseeno meni, da bi bilo treba ta pomembni instrument politike temeljito ovrednotiti, zato predlaga, da bi revizijo ESPG v obdobju 2014–2020 povezali s predlaganim vmesnim pregledom večletnega finančnega okvira 2014–2020;
The Union and USAID are donor coordinators on Public Finance Management programs in Egypt; notes that the Union is also coordinating the cooperation between Egypt and Member States on asset recovery and that, worldwide, assets worth EUR 1,2 billion have been frozen;
Del XXII
Believes that the monitoring of programmes through SBS is important and that it is equally important to keep insisting on improvements in accountability and transparency in the dialogue with Egyptian authorities, within the international Public Expenditure and Financial Accountability (PEFA) framework; is of the opinion that the possibility of suspension of SBS programmes is a useful and necessary tool to this objective;
posebno poročilo Računskega sodišča št. 8/2013 z naslovom „Podpora Evropskega kmetijskega sklada za razvoj podeželja za povečanje gospodarske vrednosti gozdov“
Conclusion
ugotavlja, da bi morala Komisija:
Notes that this Special Report on EU Cooperation with Egypt in the field of governance contains many important observations and that it is important that the Court of Auditors not only assesses the quality of financial management but also reviews the performance achieved with Union programmes; calls therefore on the Commission to regularly evaluate the results achieved;
opredeliti in oceniti potrebe EU za izboljšanje gospodarske vrednosti gozdov in v zvezi s tem združiti prizadevanja in spoznanja povezanih področij politik;
Notes that Parliament will have to invest more in its political responsibility to monitor closely the implementation of policies of this kind and others;
jasno opredeliti ključne značilnosti, ki bi zagotovile, da bo podpora Unije ciljno usmerjena v reševanje teh potreb, in tako ustvariti evropsko dodano vrednost;
Part XIX
meni, da bi morale države članice:
Special Report No 5/2013 of the Court of Auditors entitled ‘Are EU Cohesion Policy funds well spent on roads?’
v svojih programih za razvoj podeželja ustrezno opisati specifične gospodarske potrebe in priložnosti za različne vrste gozdnih površin in upravičencev;
Welcomes the Court of Auditors’ findings confirming a considerable improvement in road safety and a substantial decrease of fatality rates (in some cases to zero deaths); notes, in addition, that road improvements have led in general to a reduction in travelling time;
izboljšati gospodarjenje z gozdovi z zagotavljanjem priprave načrtov za gospodarjenje z gozdovi za večino gozdnih posesti in spodbujanjem certificiranja gozdnih površin;
Notes the recommendations of the Court of Auditors, while at the same time accepts a number of explanations given by the Commission;
določiti ustrezne zahteve, da zagotovijo doslednost podpore gozdarstvu v okviru politike razvoja podeželja in njeno skladnost z določbami o državni pomoči in določbami na drugih področjih politike ter tako karseda izboljšati njeno učinkovitost;
Notes that while objectives were set for the road projects, their impact on economic development could not be assessed due to lack of appropriate indicators; calls on the Commission and Member States, in the context of the new programming period, to establish a reliable and measurable set of indicators in order to address this issue;
uvesti ustrezne postopke, da zagotovijo uspešnost podpore, da bi se dejansko povečala gospodarska vrednost gozdnih površin, na katerih so bile izvedene naložbe;
Notes the differences that exist among the audited Member States in terms of their public procurement procedures; holds the view that the European public procurement directive should be applied rigorously in all Member States with a view to achieving the highest level of cost-effectiveness and efficiency; believes, in addition, that the future co-financing of road projects should be made conditional upon steps taken by Member States to ensure competition in construction markets, focussing procurement systems on delivering best value for money while avoiding entrance barriers;
ugotavlja, da bi morala Komisija izboljšati spremljanje ukrepa, da bi zagotovila, da ga države članice izvajajo v skladu s specifičnimi zastavljenimi cilji, in dosegla kratkoročno in dolgoročno trajnostnost; ugotavlja, da bi morale države članice od upravičencev zahtevati, naj pred izvedbo podprtih naložb in po njej predložijo podrobne podatke o vrednosti svojih gozdnih površin, od organov upravljanja pa, naj te vrednosti potrdijo;
Calls on the Commission to continue updating and adjusting its guide to cost-benefit analysis for investment projects, which applies to all projects, and giving guidance on carrying out traffic forecasts;
Del XXIII
Calls on the Commission to facilitate an exchange of best practice among Member States with regard to establishing reliable traffic forecasts on the one hand, and calculating the possible economic impact of roadway constructions on the other hand;
posebno poročilo Računskega sodišča št. 9/2013 z naslovom „Podpora EU upravljanju v Demokratični republiki Kongo“
Is of the opinion that road construction costs also depend on the morphology of the ground, seismic danger, environmental and archaeological, cultural and other constraints, as well as on the number of engineering objects required (such as bridges and tunnels); is of the opinion that these variables should be taken into consideration by the Court of Auditors’ audit;
meni, da bi morali Komisija in ESZD v tesnem sodelovanju z nacionalnimi organi in drugimi razvojnimi partnerji, predvsem državami članicami:
Asks the Commission and the Court of Auditors to provide more information on the possible set-up of Union-wide unit cost information for engineers preparing estimates for new projects, with a view to assisting beneficiaries in lowering their procurement costs;
pri programskem načrtovanju enajstega ERS in zasnovi prihodnjih programov Unije (i) posvetiti več pozornosti zagotavljanju ustreznega ravnovesja glede pomoči med vsemi pokrajinami, zlasti revnejšimi, da se prepreči geografska odstopanja pri razdeljevanju razvojne pomoči; (ii) kombinirati podporo na državni ravni s programi na ravni pokrajin, ki povezujejo politično in ozemeljsko decentralizacijo z izboljšanimi strategijami upravljanja naravnih virov ter obnovo in razvojem infrastrukture, in (iii) ponovno razmisliti o podpori Unije za izboljšanje upravljanja naravnih virov na podlagi celovite ocene potreb;
Part XX
pri svojem dialogu z vlado Demokratične republike Kongo bolj poudariti dejstvo, da je področje demokratičnih volitev ključna komponenta upravljanja, in skrbno oceniti vsa tveganja, da se zagotovi, da programi Unije na tem področju ne podpirajo utrditve režima;
Special Report No 6/2013 of the Court of Auditors entitled ‘Have the Member States and the Commission achieved value for money with the measures for diversifying the rural economy?’
spodbujati odgovornost vlade Demokratične republike Kongo z večjo podporo za okrepitev zmogljivosti nacionalnih nadzornih institucij, zlasti posebnih odborov narodne skupščine in vrhovne revizijske institucije;
General remarks
na vseh področjih upravljanja, ki jih zajema strategija sodelovanja Unije, sistematično upoštevati, da se je treba boriti proti goljufijam in korupciji ter reformirati sodstvo;
Is concerned that the good management of Union-funded programmes and initiatives is jeopardised when public sector cuts affect staffing levels within the relevant administrations;
meni, da bi morala Komisija:
Is concerned that Member States implement the measures in varied ways and that the Court of Auditors' comments are, in many cases, addressed to them;
na začetku programov in redno med njihovim izvajanjem ocenjevati verjetnost uresničitve glavnih tveganj in učinek, ki bi ga lahko ta uresničitev imela na doseganje ciljev programa, kar vključuje (i) ocenjevanje relevantnosti in verodostojnosti državnih politik in akcijskih načrtov za izboljšanje upravljanja glede na razpoložljiva institucionalna in finančna sredstva ter (ii) spremljanje napredka v zvezi z zavezami organov Demokratične republike Kongo;
Points out that the emphasis should be placed on the clear needs or specific objectives and the capacity to assist areas which need it;
vzpostaviti ukrepe za preprečevanje ali blažitev tveganj in jasno opredeliti način delovanja v primeru uresničitve tveganj, zlasti glede na tveganje goljufij in korupcije;
Points out the need for a greener, fairer and fully legitimate common agriculture policy, which represents the principle of ‘public spending for public goods’; believes that an increasing socio-political use of funds for rural development will lead to a boost of growth and jobs in rural areas;
osredotočiti cilje na omejeno število prednostnih nalog;
Points out that appropriate diversification projects should aim to develop local infrastructure and local basic services in rural areas in order to prevent tendencies towards depopulation; believes that the projects should also aim at making rural areas more attractive to young people and should lead to new satisfactory and well-paid job opportunities;
določiti časovni okvir, ki bo med drugim predvidel vmesne ocene in bo bolje prilagojen okolju programa;
Regarding the Court of Auditors’ approach
zagotoviti prožnost med izvajanjem programa, da se cilji lahko takoj pregledajo, kadar je to primerno;
Notes that this Special Report focused on the diversification objective within Axis 3 and would find it useful to also investigate the goal of improvement of the quality of life in rural areas and diversification of economic activity;
meni, da bi morali Komisija in ESZD:
Notes that the audited measures are designed to impact more than employment and income, and are intended to contribute to rural area sustainability;
okrepiti svoj strukturirani politični dialog in dialog o politikah s to državo, kar bo ob upoštevanju vseh določb sporazuma iz Cotonouja (zlasti člena 96) pomenilo: (i) opredelitev jasnih, relevantnih in časovno omejenih ciljev, o katerih bo dosežen skupni dogovor z nacionalnimi organi; (ii) periodično ocenjevanje doseganja dogovorjenih ciljev v okviru rednega političnega dialoga z vlado in (iii) možnost, da se po skrbnem premisleku program prilagodi, v izjemnem primeru pa začasno ali dokončno ustavi, če vlada Demokratične republike Kongo ne bo dovolj predana izpolnjevanju dogovorov;
Future developments
pozvati vlado Demokratične republike Kongo, da sprejme potrebne ukrepe za izboljšanje delovanja tematskih delovnih skupin, in spremljati izvajanje teh ukrepov;
Welcomes the fact that for the next programming period, the Commission proposed a number of improvements which should address some of the points of concern expressed by the Court of Auditors, notably:
prevzeti dejavnejšo vodilno vlogo med državami članicami, da bi spodbujala usklajen politični dialog in izboljšala vpliv Unije na vlado Demokratične republike Kongo;
a stronger legal framework with full strategy description and ex ante evaluation,
Parlamentu do maja 2014 predložiti pregled stanja projektov, ki so jih obiskali revizorji Računskega sodišča, in
a single measure, rather than three, with improved focus, clearer eligibility conditions (with guidance) and payment rules, and use of simplified costs,
Parlamentu do junija 2014 predložiti pregled vseh tekočih projektov v Demokratični republiki Kongo in ga obvestiti, koliko denarja je še na voljo in iz katerih skladov;
a better definition of selection criteria, the use of which should become compulsory,
Del XXIV
a best practice exchange on mitigation of deadweight and displacement,
posebno poročilo Računskega sodišča št. 10/2013 z naslovom „Ali je posebna podpora, ki se dodeli v skladu s členom 68 Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 73/2009, dobro zasnovana in ali se ustrezno izvaja?“
