Skupina za spremljanje Evropske pobude za demokracijo in človekove pravice, sosedske in razvojne politike
Monitoring Group on EIDHR, Neighbourhood and Development Policy
Ta skupina za spremljanje se je skoraj izključno osredotočila na precej obširen seznam vprašanj, ki so bila vnaprej predložena Komisiji, zato se je mogoče nekoliko razlikovala od ostalih skupin.
This Monitoring Group concentrated almost exclusively on the quite extensive list of questions that had been sent to the Commission in advance and, in this way, was perhaps slightly different from the other groups.
Komisija je bila zastopana na ravni generalnega direktorja (Urad za sodelovanje EuropeAid) in direktorjev (GD za zunanje odnose in GD za razvoj), kar je pozitivno.
The Commission was represented at the level of Director-General (Aidco) and Directors (Relex and Deve), which was positive.
Zaradi širokega obsega tega sestanka je bila Komisija pozvana, da vse odgovore posreduje tudi v pisni obliki za zagotovitev jasne evidence o zelo koristni in zanimivi izmenjavi mnenj.
Given the wide scope of this particular meeting, the Commission was asked to provide all answers also in writing in order that a clear record should exist of what was a very useful and interesting exchange.
Večina uradnih pisnih odgovorov je bila predložena približno 1 mesec po sestanku.
Most of the formal written replies were received about 1 month after the meeting.
Komisija je v njihovo pripravo vložila veliko dela (in verjetno razmišljanja).
The Commission had put a lot of work (and, presumably, thought) into preparing them.
Odgovori na nekatera najbolj občutljiva zastavljena vprašanja (glede demokracije in človekovih pravic) še niso pripravljeni .
The answers to some of the most sensitive questions put (on democracy and human rights) are still pending.
Skupina za spremljanje programa za vseživljenjsko učenje
Monitoring Group on the Lifelong Learning Programme
Komisija je predložila povzetek o programu vseživljenjskega učenja, njegove glavne cilje in cilje za proračunsko leto 2008.
The Commission provided a summary of the Lifelong Learning programme, its main objectives and targets for the budgetary exercise for 2008.
Predhodni predlog proračuna za leto 2008 je za ta celostni akcijski program predlagal 1 008 693 milijonov EUR za obveznosti in 1 017 092 milijonov EUR za plačila.
The PDB 2008 has proposed a total of EUR 1 008 693 million in commitments and EUR 1 017 092 million in payments for this integrated action Programme.
V primerjavi s proračunom za leto 2007 to pomeni povečanje obveznosti za 8,8 % in plačil za 19,2 %.
Compared to the 2007 budget, this represents an increase of 8.8% in commitments and 19.2% in payments.
Najpomembnejši finančni instrument za posredovanje Skupnosti je program vseživljenjskega učenja, ki vključuje dejavnosti, ki so jih prej podpirali programi Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci in e-učenje.
The most significant financial instrument for Community intervention is the Lifelong Learning Programme that encompasses the activities previously supported through the Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci and eLearning programmes.
Največje povečanje odhodkov za to področje dejavnosti je bilo predlagano za programe Erasmus Mundus in sicer odobritve za prevzem obveznosti v višini 63,5 % in odobritve za plačila 70,9 %.
The most significant increase of expenditure in this activity area has been proposed for the Erasmus Mundus programme; by 63, 5% in CA and 70, 9% in PA.
Za izvajanje programov so odgovorni GD Komisije za izobraževanje in kulturo ter 3 agencije:
The implementation of the programmes is under the responsibility of the Commission's DG EAC and of the 3 Agencies:
– Evropski center za razvoj poklicnega usposabljanja (CEDEFOP),
- European Centre for the Development of Vocation Training (CEDEFOR)
– Evropska ustanova za usposabljanje in
- European Training Foundation and the
– predlagani Evropski tehnološki inštitut.
- The proposed European Institute of Technology.
Komisija do zdaj ni mogla zagotoviti veliko informacij o izvajanju proračuna, ker je bila pravna podlaga sprejeta šele decembra 2006.
At this moment in time, the Commission could not provide much information about the implementation of the budget as the legal basis was only adopted in December 2006.
Komisija je pojasnila, da je leto 2008 leto postopnega opuščanja starih programov in uvajanja novih, pri čemer lahko nastanejo nekatere težave.
The Commission explained that, as 2008 is the phasing-out year for old programmes and the phasing-in year for new programmes, there could be some difficulties.
Celostni pristop k delovanju in mešani način izvajanja bi lahko ovirala nemoteno izvajanje proračuna v letu 2007.
The integrated approach for actions and the mixed mode of implementation could prevent the smooth implementation of the budget in 2007.
Komisija je ugotovila nekatere druge vzroke mogočih zaostankov: potrditev delovnih programov, vzpostavitev minimalnih zahtev v delovnem programu, imenovanje nacionalnih organov za nacionalne agencije, poenostavitev odnosov z nacionalnimi agencijami, izjava o zanesljivosti, združevanje nekaterih prejšnjih agencij v eno itd.
Some other causes of potential delays were identified by the Commission: approval of the working programmes, establishment of a minimum requirement in the work programme, designation of national authorities for the National Agencies, simplification of relations with National Agencies, DAS, merging of a few previous Agencies into one, etc.
Več kot 80 % proračuna se izvršuje prek nacionalnih agencij.
More than 80% of the budget is executed through the National Agencies.
Predstavljena je bila pobuda za tristransko partnerstvo: Komisija – izvajalske agencije – nacionalne agencije.
A three- party partnership: Commission - Executive Agencies - National Agencies was initiated.
Ob upoštevanju boljšega izvajanja in predhodne revizije so bile nacionalne agencije obveščene o obveznosti, da predložijo izjavo DAS (izjavo o zanesljivosti financiranja EU).
In view of better implementation and ex ante audit, the National Agencies have been advised of the obligation to provide the DAS (Statement of assurance for the EU funding).
Poslanci Evropskega parlamenta, navzoči na sestanku, so zastavili zlasti vprašanja o:
The MEPs present at the meeting mainly raised questions on:
ü izvajanju programov in načrtu Komisije za boljše izvajanje,
ü the execution of the programmes and how the Commission intended to improve the implementation in a better way
ü izvajalskih in nacionalnih agencijah ter usklajevanju njihovih dejavnosti s strani Komisije,
ü Executive and National Agencies and the coordination of their activities by the Commission
ü izjavi o zanesljivosti,
ü the DAS
ü upravičencih.
ü beneficiaries
Poročevalec je opozoril, da je po sprejetju novega medinstitucionalnega sporazuma in večletnega finančnega okvira za obdobje 2007–2013 EP dosegel znatno povečanje proračunskih sredstev za 800 milijonov EUR glede na prvotni predlog, ter zahteval natančnejšo pojasnitev, kako Komisija upravlja to povečanje.
The rapporteur recalled that after the adoption of the new IIA and MFF 2007-2013, a significant increase of appropriations by EUR 800 million was obtained by the EP over the initial proposal and has asked for more explanation about how the Commission is managing this increase.
Komisija je poudarila, da brez tega zneska programa ne bi bilo mogoče začeti že letos.
The Commission underlined that without this amount it would not be possible to start the programme this year.
Poleg tega se bodo dodatna sredstva uporabila za zagotovitev financiranja večjega števila posojil in povečanja ravni posojil v več državah.
Moreover, additional funding will be used to ensure the financing of an increased number of grants, an increase in the level of grants, in more countries.
Upravne stroške agencij krije 6,4 % izdatkov.
6, 4% of the expenditure covers the administrative costs for the Agencies.
Poslanci EP so zahtevali podrobnejše informacije, zlasti o:
More detailed information was requested by the MEPs, particularly on:
ü izvajalskih in nacionalnih agencijah,
ü Executive and National Agencies
ü sredstvih, ki jih prejemajo (izvršilni in upravni stroški),
ü The funding they receive (executive and administrative costs)
ü konvenciji, ki jo je Komisija podpisala z nacionalnimi agencijami.
ü Convention signed by the Commission with National Agencies
Komisija je bila pozvana, da v pisni obliki predloži podrobne informacije o:
It was asked that detailed information on the following topics be provided by the Commission in writing:
– seznam nacionalnih agencij, vključno s sedežem, splošnim financiranjem in upravnimi stroški;
- List of National Agencies including the location, global funding and its administrative costs;
– besedilo konvencij, podpisanih z nacionalnimi agencijami.
- The text of Conventions signed with National Agencies
Delovni dokument o predlogu proračuna za leto 2008 in o rezultatih usklajevanja z dne 13. julija 2007
Working document on the draft budget for 2008 and the results of the conciliation of 13 July 2007
Svet je po usklajevanju z Evropskim parlamentom na prvi obravnavi 13. julija 2007 sprejel predlog proračuna (PP) za leto 2008.
The Council adopted its first reading, the draft budget (DB) 2008, on 13 July 2007 following a conciliation with the European Parliament.
Delovni dokument analizira predlog proračuna v treh glavnih delih.
This working document analyses the DB in three main sections.
V prvem delu je naveden pregled glavnih elementov predloga proračuna z nekaterimi pripombami poročevalca.
The first section gives an overview of the main elements of the DB with some comments by the rapporteur.
Drugi del povzema izide usklajevanja: dogovorjene skupne izjave so priložene temu dokumentu.
The second section summarises the outcome of the conciliation: the joint statements agreed are annexed to this document.
Tretji del predstavlja komentar o glavnih spremembah v predlogu proračuna glede na predhodni predlog proračuna (PPP) za leto 2008 z dodatnimi podrobnejšimi opombami poročevalca.
The third section provides a commentary on the main changes in the DB relative the PDB 2008, with further, more detailed remarks by the rapporteur.

Kot prikazuje tabela 1, skupne odobritve za prevzem obveznosti v predlogu proračuna znašajo 128.401 milijon EUR.
As table 1 shows, overall commitment appropriations (CA) in the DB stand at EUR 128 401 million.
Svet je odobritve za prevzem obveznosti v predhodnem predlogu proračuna zmanjšal za 717 milijonov EUR glede na predhodni predlog proračuna za leto 2008, pri čemer ostaja skupna meja pod zgornjo mejo večletnega finančnega okvira v medinstitucionalnem sporazumu z dne 17. maja 2006 v višini 3.902 milijona EUR.
The Council cut the CA in the PDB by EUR 717 million relative to the PDB 2008, leaving an aggregate margin beneath the multi-annual financial framework (MFF) ceiling in the Inter-institutional agreement (IIA) of 17 May 2006 of EUR 3 902 million.
Stanje zgornjih mej v vsakem razdelku in podrazdelku večletnega finančnega okvira je obravnavano v delu III.
The situation for the ceilings under each MFF heading and sub-heading is examined section III.
Za odobritve plačil je celotni znesek predloga proračuna 119.410 milijonov EUR, ker ga je Svet zmanjšal za 2.123 milijonov EUR.
For payment appropriations (PA), the overall DB figure is EUR 119 410 million as a result of Council cuts of EUR 2 123 million.
Posledica tega je velika razlika pod zgornjo mejo večletnega finančnega okvira za plačila v višini 10.338 milijonov EUR.
This leaves a very large margin beneath the MFF payments ceiling of EUR 10 338 million.
Z več kot 10 milijardami EUR dodatno razpoložljivih plačil pod zgornjo mejo večletnega finančnega okvira je stopnja plačil v predlogu proračuna le 0,95 % BND EU.
With over EUR 10 billion of further available payments beneath the MFF ceiling, the level of payments in the DB is a mere 0,95% of EU GNI.
Razdelka, ki sta pri pripravah proračuna za leto 2008 zlasti zanimiva in se v predlogu proračuna bistveno spreminjata, sta razdelek 1 „konkurenčnost za rast in zaposlovanje“ in razdelek 4 „EU kot svetovni partner“
Two headings of particular interest in the preparations of the 2008 budget and which are subject to significant modifications in the DB are heading 1, "competitiveness and cohesion for growth and employment", and heading 4, "the EU as a global partner"
Tabela 2 v delu III določa spremembe predloga proračuna pri odobritvah za prevzem obveznosti, odobritvah plačil in razpoložljivi razliki glede na predhodni predlog proračuna za leto 2008 za vsak razdelek in podrazdelek večletnega finančnega okvira. .
Table 2 in section III sets out the DB changes in CA, PA and available margin relative to the PDB 2008 for each of the MMF headings and sub-headings. .
Svet je brez posebne utemeljitve uporabil splošno linearno zmanjšanje v skupni vrednosti 266 milijonov EUR (odobritve za prevzem obveznosti) in 548 milijonov EUR (odobritve plačil) za skoraj vse postavke v podrazdelku 1a (konkurenčnost).
The Council applied across-the-board linear cuts totalling EUR 266 million (CA) and EUR 548 million (PA), without specific justification, to almost all lines in sub-heading 1a (competitiveness).
To je vključevalo zmanjšanje za večje projekte, ključne za program lizbonske strategije, kot sta sedmi okvirni program za raziskave in program vseživljenjskega učenja.
This included cuts to major projects central to the Lisbon agenda such as the 7th Framework Programme for Research (FP7) and the Life-long learning programme (LLL).
Plačila so bila znižana za 498 milijonov EUR za podrazdelek 1b (kohezija), tako da skupno znižanje za lizbonske prednostne naloge iz razdelka 1 presega 1 milijardo v plačilih.
Payments were cut by EUR 498 million for sub-heading 1b (cohesion) such that the overall cuts in "Lisbon" priorities in heading 1 exceeded EUR 1 billion in payments.
Pod razdelkom 4 so se odobritve za prevzem obveznosti povečale za 217,6 milijona EUR, odobritve plačil pa so se zmanjšale za 364,2 milijona EUR.
In heading 4, CA were increased by EUR 217,6 million, but PA were cut by EUR 364,2 million.
Prednostne naloge za proračun za leto 2008 so bile določene z resolucijo Parlamenta o letni strategiji politik Komisije za leto 2008 in sprejete z veliko večino 24. aprila 2007.
Parliament's priorities for the 2008 budget were set out in its resolution on the Commission's Annual Policy Strategy (APS) 2008, adopted by large majority on 24 April 2007.
Razvijanje pristopa, sprejetega na pogajanjih, ki so vodila do medinstitucionalnega sporazuma z dne 17. maja 2006, in delo med pripravami proračuna za leto 2007, konkurenčnost, kohezija ter soočenje z izzivi globalizacije so med glavnimi prednostnimi nalogami, ki jih je Parlament določil v splošnem okviru za uresničevanje „proračuna, usmerjenega v rezultate“.
Building upon the approach taken in the negotiations leading to the 17 May 2006 IIA and work during the preparations of the 2007 budget, competitiveness, cohesion and meeting the challenges of globalisation are among the main priorities that Parliament has set within the overall context of delivering a "budget for results".
Poročevalcu se zdi težko usklajevati pogosto ponovljeno zavezo EU, da bo uresničevala cilje programa lizbonske strategije z vsesplošnim zmanjšanjem proračunskih vrstic v razdelkih 1a in 1b v predlogu proračuna za leto 2008 v skupni višini prek 1 milijarde EUR v plačilih.
Your rapporteur finds it difficult to reconcile the oft-repeated EU commitment to delivering on the goals of the Lisbon agenda with the indiscriminate cuts, totalling over EUR 1 billion in payments, made to budget lines in headings 1a and 1b in the DB 2008.
Nadalje ugotavlja, da to zmanjšanje pomeni prestavitev programa, sprejetega po postopku soodločanja, na konec večletnih programov porabe, o katerih so se dogovorili leta 2007, ter glede te zadeve ostaja v tesni povezavi z odgovornimi specializiranimi odbori v Parlamentu.
He further notes that these cuts imply back-loading of co-decided, multi-annual spending programmes agreed during the course of 2007 and he remains in close contact with the responsible specialised committees in Parliament on this matter.
Poročevalec prav tako ugotavlja, da Svet ni zmanjšal zneskov, predvidenih za leto 2008, ki so namenjeni projektu Galileo (proračunska vrstica 06 02 10) ali Evropskemu tehnološkemu inštitutu (15 02 11), čeprav sta oba zneska uvrščena v rezervo.
He also notes that the Council did not reduce the amounts foreseen for 2008 for Galileo (line 06 02 10) or the European Institute of Technology (15 02 11), although both amounts are placed in reserve.
Pri razdelku 4 poročevalec ugotavlja povečanje, ki ga je v rezervo predlagal Svet, za Palestino (+80 milijonov EUR) in Kosovo (+180 milijonov EUR).
On heading 4, your rapporteur notes the increases proposed in reserve by Council for Palestine (+EUR 80 m) and Kosovo (+EUR 180 million).
To je dodaten posredni dokaz, da pod razdelkom 4 kronično primanjkuje sredstev.
This is further indicative evidence that heading 4 is chronically under-funded.
Poročevalec bo podrobneje preučil nomenklaturo, ki jo za te zneske predlaga Svet, in bi pozdravil jasen namen strategije, ki poudarja to povečanje.
Your rapporteur will look closely at the nomenclature proposed for these amounts by the Council and would welcome a clearer sense of the strategy underlying these increases.
Zaskrbljen je tudi zaradi zmanjšanja v predlogu proračuna, kar zadeva odobritve plačil za rezervo za nujno pomoč.
He is also concerned by the cuts in the DB as regards PA for the Emergency Aid Reserve.
II – Rezultat usklajevanja z dne 13. julija 2007
II - Outcome of the conciliation of 13 July 2007
Usklajevanje pred sprejetjem proračuna Sveta na prvi obravnavi je potekalo tako, kot določa Priloga II k medinstitucionalnemu sporazumu z dne 17. maja 2006.
The conciliation preceding Council's adoption of its first reading of the budget took place as foreseen in annex II of the IIA of 17 May 2006.
Parlamentarna delegacija se je pogajala na podlagi poročila o pooblastilu, ki ga je sprejel Odbor za proračun 9. julija, in pripravljalnega trialoga z dne 6. julija.
Parliament's delegation negotiated on the basis of the mandate report adopted in COBU on 9 July and further to a preparatory trilogue held on 6 July.
Na usklajevanju se za posebne proračunske vrstice niso dogovorili o nobenih zneskih, vendar so se sporazumeli o številnih besedilih.
The conciliation did not come to any agreements on figures for specific budget lines, but it did agree a number of texts.
S skupnimi izjavami Parlamenta in Sveta so se dogovorili o: strukturnih in kohezijskih skladih ter programih za razvoj podeželja 2007–2013; zaposlovanju v zvezi s širitvijo leta 2004 in 2007; namenskih prejemkih; decentraliziranih agencijah (ki se jim je pridružila Komisija) in izvajalskih agencijah.
Joint statements between Parliament and Council were agreed on: structural and cohesion funds and rural development 2007 - 2013 programmes; recruitment in relation with the 2004 and 2007 enlargements; assigned revenues; decentralised agencies (which the Commission joined); and executive agencies.
Komisija je tudi predložila pisno izjavo o namenskih prejemkih.
The Commission also made a written declaration on assigned revenue.
Ta besedila so priložena temu delovnemu dokumentu.
These texts are annexed to this working document.
Skupne izjave so bile glavni izid usklajevanja in zagotavljajo podlago za spremembe na prvi obravnavi EP o proračunu za leto 2008.
The joint statements were the main outcome of the conciliation and may provide the basis for amendments in EP first reading on the 2008 budget.
Poročevalec pozdravlja skupne izjave, ki predstavljajo uspešen izid tega usklajevanja.
Your rapporteur welcomes the joint statements that represent a successful outcome of this conciliation.
Pozdravlja tudi konstruktivni pristop, ki ga je portugalsko predsedstvo ubralo za dogovor o teh izjavah.
He also welcomes the constructive approach taken by the Portuguese Presidency towards agreeing these statements.
Glavni elementi razprave na usklajevanju so bili naslednji:
The main elements of the discussion at the conciliation were the following:
· Ko je Svet predstavil predlog proračuna v skladu z besedilom poročila o pooblastilu, je parlamentarna delegacija ostro kritizirala zmanjšanje, ki ga je predlagal Svet za prednostne programe lizbonske strategije na področju konkurenčnosti in kohezije.
· Further to a presentation of the DB by Council and in line with the text of the mandate report, Parliament's delegation strongly criticised the reductions proposed by the Council to Lisbon priority programmes in the areas of competitiveness and cohesion.
Parlamentarna delegacija je ponovila svoje stališče o programu Galileo iz resolucije z dne 20. junija 2007 ( P6-TA(2007)0272 ).
Parliament's delegation re-stated its position on Galileo as per its resolution of 20 June 2007 (P6-TA (2007) 0272).
Parlamentarna delegacija je z zaskrbljenostjo ugotovila nekatere zamude pri sprejemanju programov za razvoj podeželja iz postavke 2 proračuna.
Parliament's delegation also noted with concern some delays in the adoption of rural development programmes in heading 2 of the budget.
· Parlamentarna delegacija je poudarila nizko raven razpoložljive razlike (112 milijonov EUR) iz razdelka 4 po tem, ko je Svet v predlogu proračuna povečal obveznosti za 217 milijonov EUR.
· Parliament's delegation highlighted the low level of margin available (EUR 112 million) in heading 4 following Council's increase of commitments in the DB by EUR 217 million.
Parlamentarna delegacija je ugotovila nekaj izboljšav pri rednih srečanjih o skupni zunanji in varnostni politiki s predstavniki Sveta in Komisije, vendar je zahtevala jasne predloge, ki zagotavljajo večjo jasnost Komisije in Sveta glede dejanskih potreb po porabi sredstev na področju zunanjih odnosov leta 2008 (zlasti za Kosovo in Palestino).
Parliament's delegation noted some improvements in the regular CFSP meetings with Council and Commission representatives, but demanded clear proposals providing much greater clarity on the real needs for external spending in 2008 (notably for Kosovo and Palestine) from both Commission and Council.
Narava predlagane porabe (ES ali SZVP) mora biti jasno določena in upravičena.
The nature of the proposed spending (EC or CFSP) should be clearly set out and justified.
· Glede razdelka 5 bi po mnenju Komisije zmanjšanje plač Komisije za 53 milijonov EUR, ki ga je predlagal Svet, v predlogu proračuna negativno vplivalo na zaposlovanje v letu 2008.
· On heading 5, the Commission said that Council's proposed EUR 53 million cut in Commission salaries in the DB would have very negative effects on recruitment in 2008.
· Glede decentraliziranih agencij je Komisija ugotovila, da so nekatera zmanjšanja, ki jih je predlagal Svet, občutljiva za proračune agencij za leto 2008: v nekaterih primerih je zaradi tega obstajala nevarnost razvrednotenja operativne učinkovitosti.
· On decentralised agencies, the Commission noted the sensitivity of the some of the cuts proposed by Council to decentralised agency budgets for 2008: in some cases this risked undermining operational effectiveness.
