The coupled support may be granted to sectors or regions where specific types of farming or specific agricultural sectors undergo certain difficulties and are particularly important for economic and/or social and/or environmental reasons. 
Vezana podpora se lahko odobri sektorjem ali regijam, v katerih se posebne vrste kmetovanja ali posebni kmetijski sektorji, ki so posebej pomembni iz gospodarskih in/ali socialnih in/ali okoljskih razlogov, spopadajo s težavami.
The support is granted to the extent necessary to create an incentive to maintain current levels of production, within defined quantitative limits. 
Podpora se odobri v obsegu, ki je potreben za spodbujanje ohranitve trenutnih ravni proizvodnje, znotraj opredeljenih kvantitativnih omejitev.

Despite the fact that payments are granted across the whole territory of the Member State, they are actually concentrated in the regions where those types of farming are predominant, and implicitly targeted to regions without a viable economic alternative. 
Čeprav odobrena plačila zajemajo celotno ozemlje države članice, so dejansko osredotočena v regijah, v katerih prevladujejo navedene vrste kmetijstva, pri čemer so implicitno usmerjena k regijam, v katerih ni izvedljive druge gospodarske možnosti.
Several analyses and evaluations show the relevance of these schemes. (See paragraphs V, 18 to 21 and 54.) 
Več analiz in ocen dokazuje pomembnost teh shem (glej odstavke V, 18 do 21 in 54).
As the additional premiums referred to by the Court were paid on top of ‘basic’ premiums, the decision by the Member States to integrate these supports into the SPS was applicable to both ‘basic’ and additional premiums and therefore taken irrespective of the related targeting. 
Ker so se dodatne premije, ki jih navaja Sodišče, plačale poleg „osnovnih“ premij, se je odločitev držav članic o vključitvi te podpore v SEP nanašala na „osnovne“ in dodatne premije ter je zato bila sprejeta ne glede na zadevno usmerjenost.
Recommendation 1 Within the framework of the reform of the CAP towards 2020, the Commission has proposed33 that Member States may grant coupled support to sectors or regions under certain specific conditions. 
Priporočilo 1 Komisija je v okviru reforme SKP proti letu 2020 predla-gala33, da lahko države članice sektorjem ali regijam pod posebnimi pogoji odobrijo vezano podporo.
The Commission acknowledges that exogenous and contextual factors do influence production. 
Komisija priznava vpliv zunanjih dejavnikov in okoliščin na vzrejo.
However, some analyses34 have shown that those premiums have contributed to maintaining animal production in some fragile regions and have mitigated the effects of those external factors. 
Vendar so nekatere analize34 pokazale, da so navedene premije prispevale k ohranjanju vzreje živali v nekaterih občutljivih regijah in so ublažile učinke navedenih zunanjih dejavnikov.
Although the dynamics of the beef sector are affected by external factors, in the case of suckler cows, the coupled premium appears to have supported the sector35. 
Čeprav zunanji dejavniki vplivajo na dinamiko sektorja govejega mesa, se zdi, da je v primeru krav dojilj vezana premija podprla sektor35.
The objective of partial decoupling is not to formulate an exact level of production to be achieved, but rather to maintain a minimum level of agricultural production to sustain the economic activity in regions with few economic alternatives. 33 Article38oftheproposalondirectpayments(COM(2011)625final/2of 19 October 2011). 34 Seereportontheevaluationofmarketeffectsofpartialdecoupling— October 2010. 
Cilj delno nevezane pomoči ni določiti natančne stopnje proizvodnje, ki jo je treba doseči, ampak ohranjati minimalno stopnjo kmetijske proizvodnje, da se obdrži gospodarska dejavnost v regijah, v katerih ni veliko drugih gospodarskih možnosti. 33 Člen 38 predloga o neposrednih plačilih (COM(2011) 625 final/2 z dne 19. oktobra 2011).
54 Recommendation 2 The legislator has considered that these concepts could be better defined at national level. 
54 Priporočilo 2 Zakonodajalec meni, da je te pojme mogoče bolje opredeliti na nacionalni ravni.
Nevertheless, within the framework of the reform of the CAP towards 202036, the Commission will be empowered to adopt delegated acts concerning the conditions for granting voluntary coupled support as well as the rules on consistency with other Union measures and on the accumulation of support. 
Kljub temu bo Komisija v okviru reforme SKP proti letu 202036 pooblaščena za sprejetje delegiranih aktov v zvezi s pogoji za odobritev prostovoljne vezane podpore ter v zvezi s pravili o skladnosti z drugimi ukrepi Unije in o kopičenju podpore.
As mentioned in the reply to paragraphs 29 and 30, although farmers decisions are indeed affected by coupled supports, other external factors are influential. 
Kot je že omenjeno v odgovoru na odstavka 29 in 30, na odločitev kmetov poleg vezane podpore vplivajo tudi drugi zunanji dejavniki.
The main objective of coupled supports is to maintain a certain type of production and no available EU schemes other than coupled payment have this level of influence. 
Glavni cilj vezane podpore je ohranitev določene vrste vzreje, pri čemer te stopnje vpliva nima nobena druga razpoložljiva shema EU, razen vezanih plačil.
For instance, Ireland, the UK and Portugal had reported more uneven trends on beef supply compared to Belgium, Germany, France, Italy and Spain. 
Irska, Združeno kraljestvo in Portugalska so na primer poročale o bolj neenakih trendih preskrbe z govejim mesom kot Belgija, Nemčija, Francija, Italija in Španija.
The general decrease of dairy herd numbers is more obvious in the countries with a higher proportion of dairy cows like Germany, Italy, etc. Exceptions to this trend can be found in Poland, the UK and Ireland. 
Splošno zmanjševanje števila čred krav molznic je očitnejše v državah z večjim deležem krav molznic, kot so Nemčija, Italija itd. Izjeme pri tem trendu so na Poljskem, v Združenem kraljestvu in na Irskem.
Besides, in the case of suckler cows the coupled premium appears to have supported the sector. 
Poleg tega se zdi, da je vezana premija v primeru krav dojilj podprla sektor.
Concerning the goat sector, the maintaining of coupled support has slowed down the decline in the sector, influenced by the fall in consumption and the drop in market prices (see ‘Evaluation of market effects of partial decoupling’, October 2010). 
Kar zadeva sektor koz, je ohranjanje vezane podpore upočasnilo upadanje v sektorju, ki sta ga povzročila zmanjšanje porabe in znižanje tržnih cen (glej oceno tržnih učinkov delno nevezane pomoči iz oktobra 2010).

REPLY OF THE COMMISSION 63 and 64. Joint reply The legislator has considered that these concepts could be better defined at national level (see reply to recommendation 2). 
ODGOVORI KOMISIJE 63 in 64. – skupni odgovor Zakonodajalec meni, da je te pojme mogoče bolje opredeliti na nacionalni ravni (glej odgovor na priporočilo 2).
The Commission has an overall view of the situation across the EU regarding the various coupled support measures applied in the animal sectors. 
Komisija ima splošen pregled nad razmerami v EU v zvezi z različnimi ukrepi vezane podpore, ki se uporabljajo v živinorejskih sektorjih.
Member States are subject to the obligation to periodically notify the Commission on the number of animals and the amounts paid under both coupled suckler cow and sheep and goat payments and coupled Article 68 payments, as well as under complementary national direct payments (CNDP) implemented in the Member States that joined in 2004 and 2007. 
Države članice morajo Komisijo redno obveščati o številu živali in zneskih, plačanih v okviru vezanih plačil za krave dojilje, ovce in koze ter vezanih plačil iz člena 68, pa tudi v okviru dopolnilnih nacionalnih neposrednih plačil, ki se izvajajo v državah članicah, ki so k EU pristopile v letih 2004 in 2007.
As far as social, economic and environmental impacts of the schemes are concerned, the Commission considers that it is more a matter for evaluation than monitoring. 
Kar zadeva socialne, gospodarske in okoljske učinke shem, Komisija meni, da je ocenjevanje ustreznejše od spremljanja.
When it comes to the decision-making process for the upcoming reform, the Commission bases its proposals on an impact assessment which draws on a whole range of information sources, quantitative analyses, qualitative and quantitative information from the literature and public consultations37. 
V postopku odločanja v zvezi s prihodnjo reformo se Komisija pri svojih predlogih opira na oceno učinka, ki temelji na številnih različnih virih informacij, kvantitativnih analizah, kvalitativnih in kvantitativnih informacijah iz literature ter javnih posvetovanjih37.

55 Recommendation 3 The Commission proposal for the CAP towards 2020 foresees the establishment of a common monitoring and evaluation framework with a view to measuring the performance of the common agricultural policy, including first and second pillar measures. 
55 Priporočilo 3 Predlog Komisije za SKP proti letu 2020 določa vzpostavitev skupnega okvira za spremljanje in ocenjevanje, da bi se meril uspeh skupne kmetijske politike, vključno z ukrepi prvega in drugega stebra.
However this procedure to avoid double funding for a single operation does not prevent the use of different tools (i.e. support schemes) in order to achieve a similar objective. 
Vendar ta postopek za preprečevanje dvojnega financiranja iste dejavnosti ne preprečuje uporabe različnih orodij (tj. podpornih shem) za uresničitev podobnega cilja.
Recommendation 4 The Commission regularly undertakes evaluations of all support schemes applied under the CAP. 
Priporočilo 4 Komisija redno ocenjuje vse sheme podpor v okviru SKP.

6 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. Sub-Saharan Africa is not on track to meet the millennium development goals for water and sanitation. 
6 POVZETEK I. Podsaharska Afrika zamuja pri doseganju razvojnih ciljev tisočletja na področju vode in sanitarnih razmer.
The audit aimed to assess whether the Commission has managed EU development assistance for drinking water and basic sanitation in sub-Saharan Africa so as to lead to effective and sustainable results. 
Namen revizije je bil oceniti, ali je Komisija upravljala razvojno pomoč EU za oskrbo s pitno vodo in urejanje osnovnih sanitarnih razmer v podsaharski Afriki tako, da bi dosegla uspešne in trajne rezultate.
The Court examined a sample of 23 projects in six countries, which represent a significant part of the aid delivered to that region, to see whether project results had been delivered and were likely to be sustained over time. 
Sodišče je preučilo vzorec s 23 projekti v šestih državah, ki predstavljajo precejšen delež pomoči tej regiji, da bi ugotovilo, ali so bili rezultati projektov doseženi in ali je verjetno, da bodo trajni.
The principal findings of the audit were as follows: — Overall, equipment was installed as planned and was in working order. — However, fewer than half of the projects examined delivered results meeting the beneficiaries’ needs. — Overall the projects examined promoted the use of standard technology and locally available materials: they were sustainable in technical terms. — For a majority of projects, results and benefits will not continue to flow in the medium and long term unless non-tariff revenue is ensured; or because of institutional weaknesses (weak capacity by operators to run the equipment installed). — The Commission’s project management procedures cover sustainability comprehensively but the Commission did not make good use of those procedures to increase the likelihood that projects will bring lasting benefits. 
Glavne revizijske ugotovitve so bile: — oprema je bila v glavnem nameščena po načrtih in je pravilno delovala; — vendar je manj kot polovica preučenih projektov prinesla rezultate, ki so zadovoljili potrebe upravičencev; — na splošno so preučeni projekti spodbujali uporabo standardne tehnologije in lokalnih materialov – s tehničnega vidika so bili trajni; — pri večini projektov bodo rezultati in koristi projektov le kratkoročni, če ne bo zagotovljeno financiranje še iz drugih virov poleg pristojbin ali zaradi institucionalnih slabosti (nizka zmogljivost subjektov za upravljanje nameščene opreme); — trajnost je pomemben del postopkov Komisije za upravljanje projektov, vendar Komisija teh postopkov ni izkoristila, da bi povečala verjetnost doseganja trajnih koristi projektov.
The Court recommends that in a number of respects the Commission should make better use of its existing procedures, so as to maximise the benefits from EU development expenditure in this area and sector. Special Report No 13/2012 – European Union development assistance for drinking water supply and basic sanitation in sub-Saharan countries 
Sodišče priporoča, naj Komisija v več vidikih bolje izkoristi svoje postopke, da bodo odhodki EU za razvoj na tem območju in v tem sektorju prinesli čim večje koristi.

7 INTRODUCTION WATER AND SANITATION SECTOR: ACHIEVEMENTS AND CHALLENGES 1. 
7 UVOD VODNI IN SANITARNI SEKTOR: DOSEŽKI IN IZZIVI 1.
Improvements in water supply and sanitation are critical elements in meeting the millennium development goals (MDGs)1. 
Izboljšave pri oskrbi z vodo in urejanju sanitarnih razmer so ključne za doseganje razvojnih ciljev tisočletja (RCT)1.
Safe drinking water and sanitation contribute to economic growth and reducing poverty, mainly through better public health2 and support other development objectives including gender equality and food and nutrition security. 
Varna pitna voda in dobre sanitarne razmere prispevajo h gospodarski rasti in zmanjševanju revščine, predvsem z izboljšanjem javnega zdravja2, ter podpirajo druge razvojne cilje, vključno z enakostjo spolov ter zanesljivo preskrbo s hrano.
The sector presents some characteristic challenges. 
Za sektor so značilni nekateri izzivi.
The systems installed need to be environmentally sustainable, avoiding both degradation of water resources, for example by overuse, and ecological damage such as results from inadequate sanitation and waste water disposal systems. 
Nameščeni sistemi morajo biti okoljsko trajni, tako da se preprečujeta uničevanje vodnih virov, na primer s prekomernim izkoriščanjem, in okoljska škoda, kot so posledice neustreznih sanitarnih sistemov in sistemov za odvajanje odpadnih voda.
Sanitation improvements usually need changes in personal behaviour, and so depend on hygiene campaigns to achieve general social acceptance and adoption. 
Sanitarne izboljšave običajno zahtevajo spremembe osebnih navad, zato so odvisne od osveščanja glede higiene, da postanejo nove navade družbeno sprejete in privzete.
And particularly in rural areas, operational tasks, minor maintenance and financial management generally fall not to a permanent agency but to local people who need both training and support in establishing suitable institutions. 
Poleg tega so zlasti na podeželju za operativne naloge, manjša vzdrževalna dela in finančno upravljanje namesto stalne agencije odgovorni lokalni prebivalci, ki jih je treba usposobiti in jim zagotoviti podporo pri ustanavljanju primernih ustanov.
