Since the treaty came into force, the Conference of Community and European Affairs Committees of Parliaments of the European Union (COSAC) has discontinued its organised subsidiarity checks on selected Commission proposals; its place has been taken by national parliaments, which are cooperating among themselves on an ad hoc basis.
Od začetka veljavnosti Pogodbe je konferenca odborov za zadeve Skupnosti in evropske zadeve parlamentov Evropske unije (COSAC) prekinila organizirano preverjanje subsidiarnosti pri izbranih predlogih Komisije, saj so njeno vlogo prevzeli nacionalni parlamenti, ki med seboj sodelujejo na ad hoc osnovi.
Political dialogue between the Commission and national parliaments
Politični dialog med Komisijo in nacionalnimi parlamenti
The Commission’s political dialogue with national parliaments allows a broader, more political exchange of views — notlimited to legislative proposals and to subsidiarity. Under the political dialogue, the number of opinions received from national parliaments reached a total of almost 400 in 2010, thus increasing by over 55 % compared to the previous year.
Politični dialog Komisije z nacionalnimi parlamenti omogoča širšo in bolj politično izmenjavo mnenj, ki se ne omejuje zgolj na zakonodajne predloge in subsidiarnost.V okviru političnega dialoga je bilo leta 2010 prejetih skupaj skoraj 400 mnenj nacionalnih parlamentov, kar je za več kot 55 % več kot preteklo leto.
The advantages are multiple: the political dialogue improves the process of policy formulation and helps increase the Commission’s own horizontal understanding of national dynamics and processes in that it brings the EU closer to the citizens.
Prednosti je več: politični dialog izboljšuje postopek oblikovanja politik, hkrati pa s tem, da približuje EU državljanom, Komisiji pomaga pri horizontalnem razumevanju nacionalnih dinamik in procesov.
In addition, national parliaments can help the Commission to achieve objectives such as ensuring the proper transposition of EU law and a better implementation of EU initiatives.
Poleg tega lahko nacionalni parlamenti Komisiji pomagajo pri doseganju ciljev, kot sta na primer zagotavljanje pravilnega prenosa zakonodaje EU in boljše izvajanje pobud EU.
The Court of Justice and the General Court made important rulings and took on board significant cases that have implications for a wide range of activities in the EU.
Sodišče in Splošno sodišče sta sprejeli pomembne odločitve in obravnavali pomembne zadeve, ki vplivajo na celo vrsto dejavnosti EU.

EVROPSKI EKONOMSKOSOCIALNI ODBOR
The new President of the European Economic and Social Committee, Staffan Nilsson, addresses a plenary session of the Committee in Brussels.
Novi predsednik Evropskega ekonomsko-socialnega odbora Staffan Nilsson med nastopom na plenarnem zasedanju Odbora v Bruslju.
In the light of the Lisbon Treaty, the role of the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) has also increased, through the inclusion of a horizontal clause on the social impact of European policies, new rules on services of general interest, and a stronger external role of the EU in general.
Lizbonska pogodba je z vključitvijo horizontalne klavzule o socialnih vplivih evropskih politik, novih pravil o storitvah splošnega pomena in na splošno večje zunanje vloge EU okrepila tudi vlogo Evropskega ekonomsko-socialnega odbora.
A new Committee was appointed in October, and elected its new President, Staffan Nilsson of Sweden.
Oktobra je bil imenovan nov odbor, Šved Staffan Nilsson pa je bil izvoljen za novega predsednika.
Its work also focused on the economic and social crisis, on its Europe 2020 strategy observatory, on participatory democracy and on the European Integration Forum, co-organised with the European Commission.
Odbor se je pri svojem delu osredotočal tudi na gospodarsko in socialno krizo, observatorij za strategijo Evropa 2020, participativno demokracijo ter evropski forum o vključevanju, pri pripravi katerega je sodelovala tudi Evropska komisija.
The Treaty of Lisbon enhanced the powers of the Committee of the Regions by giving it, for the first time, the powers to challenge at the Court of Justice of the European Union new EU laws it considers to be in breach of the subsidiarity principle.
Lizbonska pogodba je povečala pristojnosti Odbora regij, ki je prvič dobil pooblastila, da pri Sodišču Evropske unije začne postopek v zvezi z novimi zakoni EU, kadar meni, da ne spoštujejo načela subsidiarnosti.
A new Committee was appointed in February, and elected its new President, Mercedes Bresso of Italy.

THE EUROPEAN OMBUDSMAN
EVROPSKI VARUH ČLOVEKOVIH PRAVIC
One special report concerning the Commission was sent to the European Parliament in 2010.
Evropskemu parlamentu je bilo leta 2010 predloženo eno posebno poročilo v zvezi s Komisijo.
The Commission adopted in June its annual evaluation report on relations with the Ombudsman and on the functioning of the internal procedure for replying to the European Ombudsman.
Komisija je junija sprejela letno poročilo o oceni odnosov z varuhom človekovih pravic in o delovanju notranjega postopka za odgovore varuhu človekovih pravic.
Other institutions also developed during the year.
Med letom so se razvijale tudi druge institucije. Evropska centralna banka (ECB) je imenovala novega podpredsednika in ustanovila generalni direktorat za finančno stabilnost.
It also made preparations for hosting the secretariat of the European Systemic Risk Board.
Pripravila se je tudi na to, da bo gostila sekretariat evropskega odbora za sistemska tveganja.
Most important, the ECB contributed to the EU measures to stabilise the euro, notably with the securities market programme decided by the ECB’s Governing Council on 10 May.
Še posebej pomembno pa je bilo, da je prispevala k ukrepom EU za stabilizacijo evra, zlasti s programom za trg vrednostnih papirjev, ki ga je Svet ECB sprejel 10. maja.
Priorities in the European Court of Auditors’ 2010 work programme included the multiannual nature of much EU expenditure, including flat-rate corrections and recoveries, innovation and the internal market, human capital, sustainable energy, and the Commission’s strategy for simplifying the regulatory framework for business and citizens.
Prednostne naloge delovnega programa Evropskega računskega sodišča za leto 2010 so vključevale večletni značaj večine odhodkov EU, vključno s pavšalnimi popravki in izterjavami, inovacije in notranji trg, človeški kapital, trajnostno energijo ter strategijo Komisije za poenostavitev zakonodajnega okvira za podjetja in državljane.
It identified the advent of a new Parliament, a new treaty and a new Commission as bringing opportunities for improving the financial management of the EU, and it worked during the year to help the principal actors responsible for the management and supervision of EU funds to seize these opportunities for change.
Nastop novega parlamenta, nove pogodbe in nove Komisije je označilo kot priložnost za izboljšanje finančnega poslovodenja EU ter glavnim akterjem upravljanja sredstev EU in nadzora nad njimi pomagalo, da so izkoristili priložnosti za spremembo.
Four new agencies were created in the course of the year — the European Asylum Support Office, the European Banking Authority, the European Securities and Markets Authority and the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority.
Med letom so bile ustanovljene štiri nove agencije: Evropski azilni podporni urad, Evropski bančni organ, Evropski organ za vrednostne papirje in trge ter Evropski organ za zavarovanja in poklicne pokojnine.
The Interinstitutional Working Group on Regulatory Agencies, set up in 2009 with the aim to nd common ground between the Parliament, the Council and the Commission on how to improve agencies’ work, continued its activities in 2010.
Medinstitucionalna delovna skupina za regulativne agencije, ki je bila ustanovljena leta 2009, da bi se doseglo soglasje med Parlamentom, Svetom in Komisijo, kako izboljšati delo agencij, je leta 2010 nadaljevala svoje dejavnosti.
In May, it agreed a roadmap for the work ahead.
Maja je sprejela dogovor glede načrta prihodnjega dela.
In its November meeting, the group endorsed the work accomplished so far at technical level and had a first orientation debate on future work.
Skupina je na svojem srečanju novembra podprla dosedanje dosežke na tehnični ravni in imela prvo orientacijsko razpravo o prihodnjem delu.
The EU has continued simplifying existing legislation and making proposals that reduce the administrative burden it imposes.
EU je še naprej poenostavljala obstoječo zakonodajo in oblikovala predloge, ki bi zmanjšali upravno breme, ki ga EU ustvarja.
Moreover, to ensure that new legislation and policies are of the highest standard, an impact assessment of all major initiatives is systematically carried out.
Poleg tega so se za zagotovitev kar najvišjega standarda nove zakonodaje in politik sistematično pripravljale ocene učinka vseh glavnih pobud.
Management and control of EU finances and transparency mechanisms have been further improved.
Poslovodenje in kontrole pri finančnih sredstvih EU ter mehanizmi za zagotavljanje preglednosti so bili dodatno izboljšani.
SMART REGULATION
PAMETNA PRAVNA UREDITEV
The Commission’s better regulation agenda has led to significant improvements in policymaking at EU and national level.
Svet je sprejel direktivo za poenostavitev pravil za izdajanje računov z obračunanim DDV, zlasti glede elektronskega izdajanja računov (28).
The design of new legislation builds on views from stakeholders and evidence gathered through wide consultations and subjected to an impact assessment process that has been externally assessed as effectively raising the quality of proposals.
Nova zakonodaja se tako oblikuje na podlagi stališč zainteresiranih strani in dokaznega gradiva, zbranega med posvetovanji, ter je predmet postopka ocene učinka, za katerega so zunanji ocenjevalci ugotovili, da učinkovito izboljšuje kakovost predlogov.
In parallel, the Commission has carried out a thorough simplification of existing legislation and has made significant progress in reducing administrative burdens and assisting Member States in the transposition of EU law.
Komisija je sočasno temeljito poenostavila obstoječo zakonodajo ter dosegla znaten napredek pri zmanjševanju upravnega bremena in pri pomoči državam članicam pri prenosu zakonodaje EU.
) for citizens and businesses is a shared responsibility for all EU institutions and the Member States.
JASNEJŠI PROTIMONOPOLNI POSTOPKI podjetja si morajo skupaj prizadevati vse institucije EU in države članice.
Such a framework is necessary for achieving the objectives of the Europe 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth (see Chapter 1 for more details).
Tak okvir je potreben za doseganje ciljev strategije Evropa 2020 za pametno, trajnostno in vključujočo rast (za podrobnejše informacije glej 1. poglavje).
One of the Commission’s duties is to ensure that policies at EU level are decided in a way that is evidence-based and proportionate, transparent and accountable.
Ena od nalog Komisije je zagotoviti, da se odločitve o politikah na ravni EU sprejmejo na sorazmeren, pregleden, odgovoren in z dokazi podprt način.
Besides, it has, through its ‘Better regulation’ agenda, made significant changes over the last ve years: n ul l
Poleg tega je z načrtom za boljšo pripravo zakonodaje v zadnjih petih letih uvedla velike spremembe:
MANAGING THE QUALITY OF LEGISLATION THROUGHOUT THE POLICY CYCLE
UPRAVLJANJE KAKOVOSTI ZAKONODAJE V CELOTNEM POLITIČNEM CIKLU
Simplification and administrative burden reduction
Poenostavitev in zmanjševanje upravnega bremena
The EU is attached to simplifying existing legislation, and making proposals that reduce the administrative burden it imposes.
EU se zelo trudi poenostaviti obstoječo zakonodajo in oblikovati predloge, ki bi zmanjšali upravno breme, ki ga EU ustvarja.
During the year, the Commission made proposals that, if adopted by the Parliament and Council, could cut administrative costs by 31 % — way beyond the initially agreed 25 % target.
Komisija je med letom oblikovala predloge, ki bi upravne stroške zmanjšali za 31 %, če bodo sprejeti v Parlamentu in Svetu. To je precej več od prvotno zadanih 25 %.
The Commission work programme for 2010 renewed the multiannual simplification rolling programme with a list of 46 proposals for 2010–12, ranging across industrial policy, energy and transport, agriculture and fisheries, employment and social affairs, justice and home affairs, public health, taxation and statistics.
Delovni program Komisije za leto 2010 je večletni program poenostavitve, ki se letno posodablja, obnovil s seznamom 46 predlogov za obdobje 2010–2012, ki se nanašajo na industrijsko politiko, energetiko in promet, kmetijstvo in ribištvo, zaposlovanje in socialne zadeve, pravosodje in notranje zadeve, javno zdravje, obdavčitev in statistiko.
The Commission work programme for 2011 updated the list of simplification initiatives and withdrawn proposals.
Delovni program Komisije za leto 2011 posodablja seznam pobud za poenostavitev in seznam umaknjenih predlogov.
IMPROVED TECHNIQUES FOR TOURISM STATISTICS
IZBOLJŠANE TEHNIKE ZA TURISTIČNE STATISTIKE
The Commission continued to be supported by the High-Level Group of Independent Stakeholders on Administrative Burdens, chaired by Edmund Stoiber, the former Minister-President of Bavaria.
Komisijo pri prizadevanjih še naprej podpira skupina neodvisnih zainteresiranih strani za upravne obremenitve na visoki ravni, ki ji predseduje Edmund Stoiber, nekdanji bavarski ministrski predsednik.
Member States will be allowed to use estimation techniques instead of surveys for compiling tourism statistics.
Države članice bodo lahko pri sestavljanju turističnih statistik namesto raziskav uporabljale tehnike ocenjevanja.
EASIER ACCESS TO EU FUNDS
LAŽJI DOSTOP DO SREDSTEV EU
The Commission proposed a recast of the Brussels I regulation on jurisdiction and the recognition of enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters simplifying crossborder litigation and enhancing access to EU courts.
Komisija je predlagala prenovo Uredbe Bruselj I o pristojnosti, priznavanju in izvrševanju sodnih odločb v civilnih in gospodarskih zadevah, ki poenostavlja čezmejne spore in izboljšuje dostop do sodišč EU.
The proposed new rules will minimise the length and costs of enforcing foreign judgments and ensure equal access to courts in the Member States.
Predlagana nova pravila bodo čim bolj skrajšala uveljavljanje tujih sodb in zmanjšala s tem povezane stroške ter v vseh državah članicah zagotovila enak dostop do sodišč.
In May, a Commission review of rules for access to EU funds resulted in cuts in red tape and lower costs for beneficiaries, as well as more scope for combining public and private funding for a bigger investment impact.
Potem ko je Komisija maja pregledala pravila za dostop do sredstev EU, so se skrajšali upravni postopki in zmanjšali stroški za upravičence, povečale pa so se možnosti združevanja javnega in zasebnega financiranja, ki krepi učinek naložb.
IMPROVING CASH FLOW IN COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS
BOLJŠI PRETOK DENARJA PRI TRGOVINSKIH POSLIH
In April, the Commission adopted a communication with options to simplify the management of research framework programmes, to make them more transparent and attractive to the best researchers in the world and to the most innovative companies, and in particular the smaller ones (30).
Aprila je Komisija sprejela sporočilo o možnostih poenostavitve upravljanja raziskovalnih okvirnih programov, da bodo preglednejši in privlačnejši za najboljše raziskovalce na svetu ter za najbolj inovativna podjetja, zlasti manjša (30).
The Communication triggered an intensive debate with the Parliament and Council and with many other stakeholders.
Sporočilo je sprožilo živahno razpravo s Parlamentom in Svetom ter mnogimi drugimi zainteresiranimi stranmi.
Consensus is building up on a number of short-term measures that can be implemented by the Commission under the current legal and regulatory framework, such as further developing the‘Research participant’ portal, optimising the structure and timing of calls and better adapting the size of consortiums, introducing more flexibility for the use of average personnel costs or for the rules on interest on pre-financing. financing.
Oblikuje se soglasje glede več kratkoročnih ukrepov, ki jih Komisija lahko izvaja v obstoječem pravnem in zakonodajnem okviru, kot so na primer nadaljnji razvoj portala za udeležence raziskav, optimiziranje strukture in časovnega načrtovanja razpisov za zbiranje predlogov ter boljše prilagajanje velikosti konzorcijev, povečanje prožnosti pri uporabi povprečnih stroškov za osebje ali pravilih o obrestih za predhodno financiranje.
Evaluation of existing legislation and impact assessment
Ocena obstoječe zakonodaje in ocena učinka zakonodajnih pobud
The directive on late payments in commercial transactions, approved in October, improves the cash flow of European business, and helps eliminate barriers to crossborder commercial transactions.
Z oktobra sprejeto direktivo o boju proti zamudam pri plačilih v trgovinskih poslih se je izboljšal pretok denarja v evropskem poslovanju, odpravile pa so se tudi ovire za čezmejne trgovinske posle.
It aims at establishing, as a general rule, a 30-day limit for payment of invoices in commercial transactions between undertakings.
Njen namen je bil uvesti splošni 30-dnevni rok za plačilo računov v trgovinskih poslih med podjetji.
At the same time, in 2010 the Commission started to systematically evaluate existing legislation ex post, indicating that all major existing policy instruments, whether expenditure programmes or regulatory measures should be evaluated on a regular basis.
Hkrati je Komisija v letu 2010 začela sistematično izvajati naknadno oceno obstoječe zakonodaje in navedla, da je treba redno ocenjevati vse pomembnejše obstoječe instrumente politik, tako programe odhodkov kot zakonodajne ukrepe.
This is essential to ensure that regulatory measures form a coherent framework and deliver effectively on their objectives.
To je bistveno za zagotovitev, da bodo zakonodajni ukrepi tvorili enoten okvir in omogočili dejansko doseganje ciljev.
It began reviewing the entire body of legislation in selected policy fields to identify potential overlaps, gaps, inconsistencies and obsolete measures, through ‘ fitness checks’.
Komisija je začela pregledovati celotni zakonodajni korpus na izbranih področjih politik, da bi s„preverjanji ustreznosti“ ugotovila morebitna prekrivanja, vrzeli, nedoslednosti in zastarele ukrepe.
Pilot exercises started in 2010 in environment, transport, employment and social affairs, and industrial policy.
Leta 2010 so se začeli pilotni projekti na področju okolja, prometa, zaposlovanja in socialnih zadev ter industrijske politike.
To ensure that new legislation and policies are of the highest standard, the Commission has also put in place a wide-ranging and ambitious impact assessment system of its major initiatives.
Da bi zagotovila kar najvišji standard nove zakonodaje in politik, je Komisija uvedla tudi obsežen in ambiciozen sistem za ocenjevanje učinka svojih glavnih pobud.
The purpose of this impact assessment system is to prepare evidence for political decision-making, and to ensure that all relevant policy options are considered.
Namen sistema za ocenjevanje učinka je zbrati dokazno gradivo, ki podpira politično odločanje, in zagotoviti, da se upoštevajo vse relevantne možnosti politik.
Impact assessment reports are published alongside major proposals to explain the justification and evidence-base behind them.
Skupaj z glavnimi predlogi se objavijo poročila o oceni učinka, ki utemeljujejo predloge in razlagajo z dokazi podprta dejstva, na katerih temeljijo.
In September, a European Court of Auditors’ report on the Commission’s impact assessment system (31
31 ocenjevanje učinka (
) confirmed that it is of real value to EU decision-makers, is effective in raising the quality of proposals, and represents international best practice in its transparency and its integrated approach.
) potrdilo, da sistem resnično koristi oblikovalcem politik EU, izboljšuje kakovost predlogov in združuje najboljšo prakso na mednarodni ravni, saj je pregleden in celosten.
The Commission will continue to strengthen the effectiveness of the system, encouraged by the Court’s recommendations.
Komisijo so priporočila Sodišča spodbudila, da se bo še naprej zavzemala za izboljšanje učinkovitosti sistema.
An important step has already been taken with the publication on the Europa website of ‘roadmaps’ for all initiatives with significant impacts, outlining what analysis has already been made and what is planned.
Velik korak naprej je bila objava časovnih načrtov na spletni strani Europa za vse pobude z velikim učinkom. V načrtih je navedeno, kakšne analize so bile že opravljene in kaj se načrtuje.
This has helped to improve the transparency of impact assessment work and facilitate the stakeholders’ engagement at early stages of the policy preparation (32).
To je pripomoglo k povečanju preglednosti ocenjevanja učinka in olajšalo udeležbo zainteresiranih strani na začetnih stopnjah priprave politik (32).
A key element of the system is the independent Impact Assessment Board, which continued to ensure that impact assessments conform to quality and procedure standards.
V sistemu igra ključno vlogo neodvisni odbor za oceno učinka, ki je še naprej zagotavljal, da ocene učinka spoštujejo standarde kakovosti in postopkovne standarde.
It issued 83 opinions on the quality of Commission impact assessments and provided concrete recommendations for improvement.
Objavil je 83 mnenj o kakovosti ocen učinkov Komisije in pripravil konkretna priporočila za izboljšave.
The board has been recognised by the European Court of Auditors as raising the quality of impact assessments.
Evropsko računsko sodišče je v zvezi z odborom navedlo, da izboljšuje kakovost ocen učinka.
In 2010, some 66 impact assessments were carried out for major policy initiatives.
V letu 2010 je bilo za glavne pobude politik narejenih približno 66 ocen učinka.
IMPROVING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF EU LEGISLATION
BOLJŠE IZVAJANJE ZAKONODAJE EU
Work continued on improving the way that Member States apply EU law.
Nadaljevalo se je delo za izboljšanje izvajanja prava EU v državah članicah.
In March, the Commission issued an evaluation report on the functioning of ‘EUpilot’ — the method introduced to improve responses to citizens and business on the application of EU law and to obtain earlier resolution of infringements of EU law.
Marca je Komisija izdala poročilo o oceni delovanja pilotnega projekta EU – metode, ki je bila uvedena za povečanje odziva državljanov in podjetij na uporabo prava EU ter hitrejše razreševanje njegovih kršitev.
For instance, Commission services worked together with Germany to ensure that an important construction project did not have a negative impact on protected species in the area, and with the United Kingdom to ensure timely issue of residence documents for EU citizens and their family members.
Službe Komisije so na primer sodelovale z Nemčijo, da bi se preprečil negativen učinek obsežnega gradbenega projekta na zaščitene vrste na zadevnem območju, ter z Združenim kraljestvom, da bi državljani EU in njihovi družinski člani pravočasno dobili potrdila o stalnem prebivališču.
They also worked with Spanish authorities to protect consumers and the designation of origin of traditional products.
Sodelovale so tudi s španskimi organi v zvezi z varstvom potrošnikov in zaščito označb porekla tradicionalnih proizvodov.
