However, problems with project design, which may profoundly affect the effectiveness and sustainability, remain widespread.Forseveralof the projects audited,insufficient preparationfortheformulation of activities meant that the first year of the projects had to be devoted to project design (carrying out diagnostics, identification of beneficiaries, studies).
Vendar težave z zasnovo projektov, ki lahko zelo vplivajo na uspešnost in trajnost, ostajajo zelo pogoste.
This reduced the time available for effective implementation, making the project more vulnerable to delays, and worsening the prospects for sustainability.
Pri številnih revidiranih projektih je bilo treba zaradi nezadostne priprave za formulacijo dejavnosti prvo leto projektov posvetiti zasnovi projekta (opravljanje diagnostike, ugotavljanje upravičencev, študije).
The example in Box 4 serves as an illustration.

EXAMPLE OF POOR PROJECT DESIGN
PRIMER SLABE ZASNOVE PROJEKTA
Promotion of the incorporation of women microentrepreneurs and family-based economic units in the formal labour system — Peru e local NGO partner implemented this project in four regions including Junin which was visited by the Court in February 2008, and where the NGO did not have a previous presence.
Lokalna partnerska nevladna organizacija je ta projekt izvajala v štirih regijah, tudi v regiji Junin, ki jo je Sodišče obiskalo februarja 2008 in kjer nevladne organizacije prej niso bile prisotne.
Although a results oriented monitoring exercise as recently as 2007 had not forecast such problems, the Court found no evidence that the NGO had involved the relevant public authorities in the design of the project activities.
Čeprav v rezultate usmerjeno spremljanje še v letu 2007 ni napovedalo takšnih težav, Sodišče ni našlo dokazov, da bi nevladne organizacije vključile relevantne javne organe oblasti v zasnovo projektnih dejavnosti.
Nor did the NGO coordinate with the existing networks and organisations supporting the micro-enterprises in the region.
Nevladne organizacije se tudi niso usklajevale z obstoječimi mrežami in organizacijami, ki podpirajo mikropodjetja v regiji.
During the project implementation the local NGO partner had to contract one such network to carry out basic research to identify potential beneficiaries and economic opportunities. e project design was based on the idea that it would be replicated and expanded by the public authorities.
Med izvajanjem projekta se je morala lokalna partnerska nevladna organizacija povezati z eno od teh mrež, da bi izvedla osnovne raziskave za ugotovitev potencialnih upravičencev in ekonomskih priložnosti. Zasnova projekta je temeljila na ideji, da ga bodo javni organi oblasti ponovili in razširili.
However, the Court found that the relevant authorities were either not involved in the project at all, did not work as they were supposed to, or did not have enough financial and human resources to take over the project activities.
Vendar je Sodišče ugotovilo, da relevantni organi oblasti sploh niso bili vključeni v projekt, niso delali, kot bi morali, ali pa niso imeli dovolj finančnih ali kadrovskih sredstev, da bi prevzeli projektne dejavnosti.
CONTROL AND SUPERVISION PROCEDURES
KONTROLNIIN NADZORNI POSTOPKI
The issue was also raised in a letter from CONCORD to Commissioner Nielson of 17 March 2004 on the impact of the financial regulation and its derived documents and procedures on NGOs.
Vprašanje je bilo zastavljeno tudi v pismu konfederacije Concord komisarju Nielsonu z dne 17. marca 2004 o vplivu finančne uredbe in njenih izvedenih dokumentov in postopkov na nevladne organizacije.
The aim of the audit of the Commission’s control and supervision procedures wastodeterminetheextentto whichtheyensuredasmooth implementation of NSA project activities.
Cilj revizije kontrolnih in nadzornih postopkov Komisije je bil določiti, v kolikšni meri so zagotavljali tekoče izvajanje projektnih dejavnosti nedržavnihakterjev.
While numerous evaluations have found that stakeholders find procedurescumbersome28, which hasalso beena matter ofconcernto Parliament29,the Courtrecog-nisestheefforts made by the Commission to address the problem.
Medtem ko je bilo pri številnih vrednotenjih ugotovljeno, da so postopki za zainteresirane stranke obremenjujoči28, karjezaskrbljujočetudi po mnenju Parlamenta29 , Sodišče priznava, da si Komisija prizadeva reševati ta problem.
High level initiatives taken by the Commission include setting up an inter-service committee to simplify procedures, strengthening the dialogue between the Commission and CONCORD on financial and contractual issues (leading to a Reader on the standard grant contract) andissuing new practical guides and simplifiedforms and documents. The devolution of the thematic programmes has generally also helpedimprovethe dialogue betweenthe EC and NSAs.
Pobude na visoki ravni, ki jih je sprejela Komisija, vključujejo ustanovitev medoddelčnega odboraza poenostavitev postopkov,krepitev dialoga med Komisijo in konfederacijo Concord o finančnih in pogodbenih vprašanjih (ki je privedel do priročnika ostandardni pogodbi o donaciji)inizdajo novih praktičnih vodnikov ter poenostavljenih obrazcev in dokumen-tov.Tudi prenos pristojnostizatematske programeje običajno pripomogel kizboljšanju dialoga med ESin nedržavnimi akterji.
The control and supervision procedures were operating correctly in many respects, but there remain some specific problems whichleadto errors30

THE GUIDANCE PROVIDED TO NSAS ON HOW TO APPLY THE RULES IN PRACTICE
NEDRŽAVNIM AKTERJEM NISO BILE ZAGOTOVLJENE ZADOSTNE SMERNICE
HAS NOT BEEN SUFFICIENT
O IZVAJANJU PRAVIL V PRAKSI
29The European Parliament in the 2004 discharge stated that it: ‘regrets [ ... ] the vastly increased complexity of the new procedures, which are cumbersome and take far too long to implement, points out the need for real simplification, while not losing sight of the original objective’ (Resolution of the European Parliament with comments forming an integral part of the decision on the discharge for implementation of the European Union general budget for the financial year 2004, Section III — Commission (OJ L 340, 6.12.2006, p.
29Evropski parlament je v razrešnici za leto 2004 izjavil, da: „obžaluje [...] da so postali novi postopki veliko bolj zapleteni, okorni, za njihovo izvedbo pa je potrebo veliko preveč časa, poudarja potrebo po dejanski poenostavitvi, pri čemer se ne sme pozabiti na prvotni cilj“ (Resolucija Evropskega parlamenta s pripombami, ki so sestavni del sklepa o razrešnici glede izvrševanja splošnega proračuna Evropske unije za proračunsko leto 2004, Oddelek III – Komisija (UL L 340, 6.12.2006, str.

Podobne ugotovitve so izhajale
Practical guidance on how to apply the EC’s financial and contractual rules needs to take into account the turnover of staff in the Commission’s Delegations and, within NSAs, a limited level of knowledge abouttheserules.
Pri praktičnih smernicah o načinu uporabe finančnih in pogodbenih pravil ES je treba upoštevati menjavanje uslužbencev v delegacijah Komisije in omejeno raven poznavanja teh pravil v nedržavnih akterjih.
Amongthe methods usedtoimproveknowledge are training courses heldin the Delegations for both staff and beneficiaries, and the endorsement of a hands-on guide produced in cooperation with CONCORD(the so-called Reader on standard grant contracts).
Med metodami, uporabljenimizaizboljšanje poznavanja,sotečaji usposabljanja za uslužbencein upravičence, ki se prirejajo v delegacijah, ter sprejetje praktičnega vodnika, pripravljenega v sodelovanju s konfederacijo Concord(takoimenovani priročnik ostandardni pogodbi o donaciji).
the Court’s DAS audits: see the Court’s Annual Reports concerning the financial year 2007 on the implementation of the budget, paragraph 8.9; and on the European Development Funds (EDFs), paragraph 22.
iz revizij za DAS, ki jih je izvedlo Sodišče: glej Letni poročili Sodišča za proračunsko leto 2007 o izvrševanju proračuna, odstavek 8.9, in o Evropskem razvojnem skladu (ERS), odstavek 22.
The training is useful but for the beneficiaries mostly consists only of one-day workshops after the conclusion of the calls for proposals.
Usposabljanje je koristno, vendar za upravičence večinoma pomeni enodnevno delavnico po zaključku razpisa za zbiranje predlogov.
The Court found this to be insufficient to ensure that the NSAs ‘institutionalise’ the knowledge required to apply the rules correctly in the course of atypical projectimplementation period.
Sodišče je ugotovilo, da to ne zadošča za zagotovitev, da nedržavni akterji „osvojijo“ znanje, ki ga potrebujejo za pravilno uporabo pravil v običajnem časuizvajanja projekta.
in Chapter 8 of the Court’s Annual Report concerning the financial year 2007 (OJ C 286, 10.11.2008, p. 182).
Na primer odstavek 8.24 v Poglavju 8 Letnega poročila Sodišča za proračunsko leto 2007 (UL C 286, 10.11.2008, str. 182).
When changes in the Practical Guide and contract conditions occur (the Practical Guide has been modified five times in last seven years) they have not been communicated systematically to the grantees.
Obveščanje upravičencev o spremembah praktičnega vodnika in pogodbenih pogojev ni sistematično (praktični vodnik je bil v zadnjih sedmih letih spremenjen petkrat).
Moreover, there have been inconsistencies in the interpretation of the rules, which meant that granteesin someinstances have been asked by the Commission to operate under new conditions even when they were not applicableretrospectively.
Poleg tega je razlaganje pravil nedosledno, zatoje Komisija v nekaterih primerih od upravičencev zahtevala, da delajo pod novimi pogoji, celo kadarseti niso uporabljali za nazaj.
PROJECT AUDITS WERE NOT ALWAYS OF SUFFICIENTLY HIGH QUALITY
REVIZIJE PROJEKTOV NISO BILE VEDNO DOVOLJ KAKOVOSTNE
For several of the projects examined in this audit, shortcomings were noted in the quality of project audits.
Pri več projektih, preučenih med to revizijo, so bile ugotovljene pomanjkljivosti vkakovostirevizij projektov.
They did not effectively detect errors affectingthe eligibility oftransactions at grantee andimple-menting partnerlevel.
Revizije niso uspešnozaznale napak, ki vplivajo na upravičenost transakcij na ravni upravičencain izvajalskega partnerja.
The specific assessments of EDF and external actionsinthecontextofthe Court’s annual reports31 noted similar shortcomingsin project audits.
Pri posebnih ocenah ERSin zunanjih ukrepov v okviru letnih poročil Sodišča31 so bile podobne pomanjkljivosti ugo- tovljene vrevizijah projektov.
In an effort to address these shortcomings the Commission has developed revisedterms ofreferenceto ensurethattheaudit workiscompre-hensive, which became obligatory for project contracts from Febuary 2006.
Komisija si te pomanjkljivosti prizadeva rešiti tako, da je razvila spremenjena pooblastila za zagotavljanje izčrpnega revizijskega dela, ki so postala obvezna za projektne pogodbe odfebruarja 2006 naprej.
For the projects audited, it wastooearlytoassesstheeffect ofthis change.

Pri reviziji je bilo ugotovljeno, da so pri upravljanju pogodb o donacijah še vedno prisotni nekateri praktični upravni problemi, med drugim:
(a) inconsistent interpretations of the rules of origin for s up p l ies purchased under EC-financed contracts, which may have burdened NSAs unnecessarily(examplein Box 5);
(a)nedosledne razlage pravil o poreklu blaga, kupljenega na podlagi pogodb, ki jih je financirala ES, kar je morda nepotrebno obremenilo nedržavne akterje(primer v Okviru 5);
(b)difficulty for NSAs in obtaining tax exemption or recovering taxes insome partner countries;

(e) dodatne zahteve, ki jih delegacije nedosledno določajo za projekte, in s tem dodajajo nepotrebne upravne obremenitve za nedržavne akterje, na primer:(i) dodatna redna poročila ali revizijska poročila;(ii) uporabaločenih, posebnih bančnihračunov za vsak projekt;(iii)plačilne možnosti, ki se razlikujejo od tiste, ki je določena vsplošnih pogojih(npr. manjši obroki).
Purchases of motorcycles — the case of Ethiopia
Nakup motornih koles – primer Etiopije
Japanese vehicles are generally preferred by NGOs in Ethiopia because their quality is reliable under local conditions.
Nevladne organizacije v Etiopiji imajo ponavadi raje japonska vozila, ker imajo v lokalnih razmerah zanesljivo kakovost.
However, the Delegation invited NGOs within the framework of Food Security projects to consider Chinese vehicles also, partly because it believed that derogation was needed for Japanese but not for Chinese vehicles.
Vendar pa je delegacija v okviru projektov za varnost preskrbe s hrano pozvala nevladne organizacije, naj razmislijo tudi o kitajskih vozilih, deloma zato, ker je menila, da je odstopanje potrebno za japonska, ne pa tudi za kitajska vozila.
Reflecting the Delegation’s assumptions on the derogation rules, one NGO purchased 10 Chinese motorcycles without requesting derogation.
Zaradi predpostavk delegacije o pravilih o odstopanju je ena nevladna organizacija kupila 10 kitajskih motornih koles, ne da bi zaprosila za odstopanje.
As several of these broke down the NGO on 14 December 2006 requested permission and derogation from the rules of origin to buy an additional two motorcycles of more robust Japanese manufacture, which was initially rejected by the Delegation.
Ker se je več motornih koles pokvarilo, je nevladna organizacija 14. decembra 2006 prosila za dovoljenje in odstopanje od pravil o poreklu, da bi kupila še dve motorni kolesi robustnejše japonske proizvodnje, kar je delegacija sprva zavrnila.
On 11 September 2007, the Delegation eventually did accept the request when it was resubmitted with a request for a budget amendment.
Zahtevek je delegacija nato 11. septembra 2007 sprejela, ko je bil ponovno predložen z zahtevkom za spremembo proračuna.
Meanwhile, the Court found that the Delegation had consulted Headquarters in April 2007 when both parties had concluded that derogation was not required for Japanese goods purchased in Ethiopia under a thematic budget line, while derogation was and always had been required for Chinese goods.
Medtem je Sodišče ugotovilo, da se je delegacija aprila 2007 posvetovala s sedežem in sta obe strani sklenili, da odstopanje ni potrebno za japonsko blago, kupljeno v Etiopiji na podlagi tematske proračunske postavke, medtem ko je bilo odstopanje vedno potrebno za kitajsko blago.
Under the Council Regulations on access to Community external assistance, especially Articles 3(2), 3(3) and 5 and
Na podlagi Uredb Sveta o dostopu do zunanje pomoči Skupnosti, zlasti členov 3(2), 3(3) in 5 ter Priloge II, se lahko za projekte, ki se financirajo s tematskimi programi v Etiopiji, od 28. decembra 2005 uporablja blago s poreklom tako iz Japonske kot iz Kitajske brez zahtevka za odstopanje, ker je Etiopija razvrščena med najmanj razvite države.
Contrary to this, goods specifically originating from China require a request for derogation in case of a grant contract financed by the EDF.
V nasprotju s tem pa je za blago s poreklom iz Kitajske potreben zahtevek za odstopanje v primeru, da pogodbo o donaciji financira ERS.
The EDF regulation also allows purchase of goods, irrespective of their origin, on the local market up to 30 000 euro.
Uredba o ERS omogoča tudi nakupe blaga na lokalnem trgu, ne glede na njegovo poreklo, do vrednosti 30 000 EUR.
MONITORINGINCLUDING TOOLS AND ASSESSMENTS OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF NSA ACTIVITIES
SPREMLJANJE, VKLJUČNO Z ORODJIIN OCENAMI USPEŠNOSTI DEJAVNOSTI NEDRŽAVNIH AKTERJEV
Effective monitoring is an essential part of the management of projects, for which the Commission uses a number of tools and procedures.
Uspešno spremljanje je bistven del upravljanja projektov, za katerega Komisija uporablja številna orodja in postopke.
The aim of the Court’s audit was to determine, in the light of the existing Commission procedures, if: (i) the IT systems provide the necessary manage-mentinformationtotake decisionsand monitor NSAactivities;(ii)a management reporting system is in place; (iii) Delegations adequately monitor the projects, receive sufficientfeedbackfrom external monitoring and evaluations, andfollow up onthem;(iv)suitabletoolsfor assessing outputs and results of activities are used; (v) adequate tools for assessingthelong-termimpact of activities are used.
Cilj revizije Sodišča je bil, da se glede na obstoječe postopke Komisije ugotovi, ali: (i) informacijski sistemi zagotavljajo upravljavske informacije, ki so potrebne za odločanjein za spremljanje dejavnosti nedržavnih akterjev;(ii)je vzpostavljen sistem poročanja o upravljanju; (iii) delegacije ustrezno spremljajo projekte, prejemajo dovolj povratnih informacij od zunanjega spremljanjain vrednotenj ter nadalje ukrepajo na njihovi podlagi;(iv)se uporabljajo ustrezna orodjaza ocenjevanjeizložkov in rezultatov dejavnosti; (v) se uporabljajo ustrezna orodja za ocenjevanje dolgoročnega vpliva dejavnosti.
THE COMMISSION’S COMPUTERISED INFORMATION SYSTEM, CRIS,

and Logical Framework Matrix (the Logframe) are analytical and management tools widely used in development cooperation by donors and partner governments.
33Pristop logičnega okvira in logični okvir projektov (Logframe) sta analitični in upravni orodji, ki ju donatorji in partnerske vlade obsežno uporabljajo pri razvojnem sodelovanju.
The typical design of a Logframe involves tasks such as formulating SMART indicators (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Timed), identifying adequate sources of verification, setting realistic targets for each indicator, and collecting baseline values for later measurement of progress and results achieved.
Značilna zasnova Logframe zadeva naloge, kot so oblikovanje kazalnikov SMART (specifični, merljivi, dosegljivi, relevantni in časovno opredeljeni), določanje ustreznih virov preverjanja, določanje realističnih ciljev za vsak kazalnik ter zbiranje temeljnih vrednosti za kasnejše meritve napredka in doseženih rezultatov.
An adequate performance-monitoring system would therefore include regular collection of data on the actual results.
Ustrezen sistem spremljanja uspešnosti bi zato vključeval redno zbiranje podatkov o dejanskih rezultatih.
NSAs are sometimes also asked to collect data and report not only on inputs, processes and outputs, but also on mid-term outcomes and long-term impacts.
Tudi od nedržavnih akterjev se včasih zahteva, da zbirajo podatke in poročajo ne le o vložkih, procesih in izložkih, temveč tudi o vmesnih rezultatih in dolgoročnih učinkih.
As noted in paragraph 5, there is at present no readily available source of data in EuropeAid concerning NSA funding in the field of development cooperation.
Kot je navedeno v odstavku 5, trenutno EuropeAid nima na voljo pravočasno razpoložljivega vira podatkov o financiranju nedržavnih akterjev na področju razvojnega sodelovanja.
The data in the Common RELEX Information System (CRIS) is incomplete and the identification of operators unreliable.
Podatki iz skupnega informacijskega sistema RELEX (CRIS) so nepopolni, identifikacija operaterjev paje nezanesljiva.

PROJECT REPORTS HAVE NOT ALWAYS PROVIDED AN ACCURATE ASSESSMENT

NSAsbenefitingfromagrant must provide technical and financial reports, which should allow for a comparison between the project proposal and what was achieved during the reporting period.
Nedržavni akterji, ki so prejemniki donacije, morajo zagotoviti tehnična in finančna poročila, ki bi morala omogočati primerjavo med predlogom projekta in rezultati, doseženimi v obdobju poročanja.
For half ofthe projectsauditedthesereports did not present a comprehensive assessment of the state of implementation.
Pri polovici revidiranih projektov v teh poročilih ni bila prikazana celovita ocena stanjaizvajanja.
In general, reports tended to underemphasise the most challenging issues and focus on the positive achievements.
Na splošno sota poročila premalo poudarjala vprašanja, ki so pomenila največji izziv, in so se osredotočala na pozitivne dosežke.
Under the current procedures, NSAs have to apply a logical framework, includingquantitative performanceindicators33.
V okviru sedanjih postopkov morajo nedržavni akterji uporabiti logični okvir, vključno s kazalniki kvantitativne uspešnosti 33.
However,for13of
Vendar pri
16 projects audited, the technical reports did not provide a direct comparison betweenthe expected and achievedresults usingthelogical framework.
13 od 16 revidiranih projektov tehnična poročila niso omogočila neposredneprimerjave med pričakovanimi in doseženimi rezultati z uporabo logičnega okvira.
Hence the Logframes in several of the projects audited were gradually losing their relevance astoolsfor project monitoring.
Zato so Logframes v številnih revidiranih projektih postopoma izgubljali svoj pomen kot orodje za spremljanje projektov.
