The contracts entered into force in April this year. 
Dessa kontrakt trdde i kraft i april 2000.
To bridge the gap, existing Phare framework contracts were extended until the end of March. 
Fr de redan existerande Phare-ramavtalen frlngdes giltighetstiden till och med slutet av mars 2000.

On the subject of Tacis, the Commission does not share the CourtŐs opinion that setting a minimum number of experts was a dubious condition. 
Nr det gller Tacis-programmet delar kommissionen inte revisionsrttens sikt om att villkoret om ett minimiantal experter r diskutabelt.
The contracting authority should be able to check tenderersŐ mobilisation capacity in terms of quality and quantity. 
Den upphandlande myndigheten mste kunna kontrollera anbudsgivarnas kapacitet att mobilisera resurser, bde kvalitativt och kvantitativt.
This is by no means nullified by the possibility open to the Commission and the recipient to propose experts, because both options were provided for in the framework contracts. 
Den mjlighet kommissionen och stdmottagaren hade att fresl experter utgr inget hinder fr detta, eftersom bda mjligheterna fanns upptagna i ramavtalen.
The evaluation committee excluded tenders on the basis of objective, clear and transparent controls, following the selection criteria set out in the tender dossier. 
Utvrderingskommittn uteslt vissa anbud p grundval av en kontroll avseende verensstmmelsen med uppstllda krav, vilken genomfrdes p ett objektivt, tydligt och ppet stt och i enlighet med de urvalskriterier som angivits i anbudshandlingarna.
No firm has complained about the procedures used nor about the results published in the Official Journal. 
Fr vrigt har inget fretag klagat ver vare sig de tillmpade frfarandena eller de resultat som har offentliggjorts i Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning.
The Commission does not question the logic of the CourtŐs proposal; however, in the spirit of the administrative reform of the Commission now under way, the approach envisaged is that of decentralisation of responsibility to the authorising officers of the Directorates-General in the framework of clearer rules and more rigorous audits. 
Kommissionen ifrgastter inte logiken i revisionsrttens frslag. Mot bakgrund av den pgende administrativa reformen av kommissionen avses dock snarare en decentralisering av ansvaret till de utanordnande generaldirektoraten komma att ske.
The Commission attaches great importance to compliance with contract-award procedures. 
Kommissionen fster stor vikt vid att upphandlingsfrfarandena respekteras.
Since 1997 many measures have been taken to improve the procedural framework of service contracts. 
Sedan 1997 har talrika tgrder vidtagits fr att frbttra ramen fr upphandling av tjnster.
Without denying that there were problems in the reference period, the Commission stresses that, of the 68 cases listed by the Court, 36 concern exclusively the incompleteness of the files. 
Utan att frneka frekomsten av problem under referensperioden understryker kommissionen att det bland de 68 fall som revisionsrtten tar upp i 36 fall uteslutande rr sig om ofullstndiga akter.
Of the 32 others, only five Phare cases had a real effect on the outcome of the tendering procedure. 
Av de vriga 32 fallen har problemen endast i fem Phare-fall haft ett reellt inflytande p resultatet av anbudsinfordran.
Competition between tenderers 77. 
Konkurrens mellan anbudsgivarna 77.
Setting up consortia was a deliberate policy at the time, dictated by operational considerations and, in the case of Tacis, it was one of the provisions of the Regulation in force. 
Bildandet av konsortier var tidigare freml fr en medveten politik som frdes av operationella skl. Vad betrffar Tacis-programmet rrde det sig om en bestmmelse i den tillmpliga frordningen.
Phare: the possibility of interview is always mentioned and the financial evaluation methods are explained. 
Inom Phare-programmet anges systematiskt mjligheten att intervjuer genomfrs, och de ekonomiska utvrderingsmetoderna preciseras.
Without denying that the specific problems observed in the sample examined by the Court did occur, the Commission stresses that overall the errors had very little influence on the final outcome of the invitations to tender (five of the 80 cases). 
Kommissionen frnekar inte den faktiska frekomsten av de punktvisa problem som konstateras inom ramen fr revisionsrttens underskning, men understryker att de begngna misstagen i allmnhet endast har haft ett mycket begrnsat inflytande p det slutgiltiga resultatet av anbudsinfordringarna (i fem fall av 80).
It is true that financial bids of the tenderers not selected were not routinely filed in the reference period under consideration by the Court (1994 to 1998). 
Det stmmer att de icke antagna anbudsgivarnas ekonomiska anbud inte blev freml fr ngon systematisk arkivering under den referensperiod som revisionsrtten har granskat (1994Đ1998).
In any event, the Commission notes that the errors in question had no influence on the final outcome of the invitations to tender. 
Under alla omstndigheter konstaterar kommissionen att de funna punktvisa felen inte p ngot stt har pverkat resultatet av anbudsinfordringarna.
81 (a). The methods and criteria for technical and financial evaluation are now routinely included in the tender dossier. 
81 a) Metoderna och kriterierna fr den tekniska och ekonomiska utvrderingen preciseras hdanefter systematiskt i anbudshandlingarna.
81 (b). The DIS manual contains detailed instructions for evaluation committees which have to be followed by the national contracting authorities. 
81 b) Vad betrffar utvrderingskommitterna innehller handboken DIS Manual detaljerade anvisningar som skall respekteras av de upphandlande nationella myndigheterna.
81 (c) and (d). financial dossiers and contracts by summer 1999. 
81 c) och d) Fre sommaren 1999 erhll delegationerna anvisningar om arkivering av de ekonomiska akterna och kontrakten.
Delegations received instructions on the filing of 81 (e). 
81 e) Detta frfarande tillmpas systematiskt.
The Commission fully agrees with the CourtŐs remark about excessive staff turnover. 
Kommissionen delar fullstndigt revisionsrttens sikt om den alltfr stora omsttningen av personal.
It would like to have sufficient statutory staff to avoid this situation arising and provide more continuity, something which is impossible with precarious staff. 
Kommissionen skulle vilja frfoga ver tillrckliga fasta personalresurser fr att undvika denna situation och stadkomma en bttre kontinuitet, vilket omjliggrs av anvndningen av tillfllig personal.
Responsibilities of the parties involved in the procedures 83. The problems cited were quite circumstantial. 
Deltagande parters ansvarsskyldighet 83. De ptrffade problemen r punktvisa.
Absences of evaluators, in so far as they remain within reasonable limits, are inevitable and natural (illnesses and various other impediments) on a committee made up of five members from very different environments. The same holds for the differences in marking. 
Frnvaron av utvrderare r, s lnge den hller sig inom rimliga grnser, ett oundvikligt och naturligt fenomen (sjukdomar, frhinder, etc.) inom en kommitt som i princip omfattar fem medlemmar frn vitt skilda sammanhang. Samma sak gller spridningen av pong.
The recommendation about better controls on participants and eliminating the risk of confusion of roles has already been implemented in the context of the new procedures. 
Rekommendationen med syfte att ge deltagarna en bttre ledning och eliminera risken fr sammanblandning av roller har redan omsatts i praktiken inom ramen fr de nya frfaranden som numera tillmpas.
C 350/28 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 6.12.2000 The Court recommends that an agent of the Commission attend the evaluation committees convened by the local contracting authorities. 
C 350/28 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning 6.12.2000 Slutligen rekommenderar revisionsrtten nrvaron av tjnstemn frn kommissionen d utvrderingskommitterna samlas p initiativ av de decentraliserade upphandlande myndigheterna.
Implementing this suggestion requires sufficient Commission delegation staff in the recipient countries, which is not the case currently. 
Ett genomfrande av detta frslag frutstter att kommissionens delegationer i de stdmottagande lnderna frfogar ver tillrckliga permanenta personalresurser, vilket inte r fallet fr nrvarande.
General conclusion 85. 
Allmn slutsats 85.
The Commission fully supports the CourtŐs comments concerning the need to employ statutory staff for the work involved in tendering procedures. 
Kommissionen delar fullstndigt revisionsrttens iakttagelser betrffande behovet av att tillstta fast anstlld personal fr att utfra arbetsuppgifter relaterade till anbudsinfordringar.
However, in the current context of staff shortages, it is impossible to do so and still keep big programmes like Phare and Tacis operating normally. 
Mot bakgrund av den nuvarande situationen med otillrckliga fasta personalresurser r det emellertid omjligt att flja de framfrda uppmaningarna, om man vill frvissa sig om att de viktiga programmen Phare och Tacis fortstter att fungera som normalt.

27.11.2000 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 336/3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY GNP, which is considered to be representative of the Member StatesŐ ability to contribute to the Community budget, plays a much more important role than that of merely financing the budget. 
27.11.2000 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning C 336/3 SAMMANFATTNING BNI anses representera medlemsstaternas frmga att bidra till finansieringen av budgeten, men spelar en mycket viktigare roll n s.
This aggregate is used as a reference indicator in the field of structural measures as well as in the context of economic and monetary union. 
Detta aggregat anvnds som referensmtt p strukturtgrds-omrdet och inom Ekonomiska och monetra unionen.
Community control procedures are the only control procedures capable of guaranteeing the reliability and comparability of GNP data established by the Member States using their own statistical procedures. 
Endast gemenskapens granskningsfrfaranden kan garantera att de BNI-uppgifter som medlemsstaterna tagit fram med hjlp av sina egna statistiska metoder r tillfrlitliga och jmfrbara.
On the CommissionŐs initiative, extensive harmonisation work has been carried out since 1989, resulting in substantial changes in the national GNPs. 
Sedan 1989 har det under kommissionens ledning utfrts betydande harmonise-ringsarbeten som lett till vsentliga ndringar av de nationella BNI.
The Commission should, however, improve and extend the controls, provide better monitoring and introduce an adequate documentary framework. 
Kommissionen borde emellertid frbttra och utka kontrollerna, frskra sig om en bttre uppfljning och upprtta lmpliga dokumentationsramar.
The Court recommends that the efforts to improve data quality continue, so that GNP can validly perform the role assigned to it. 
Revisionsrtten rekommenderar att man fortstter anstrngningarna fr att ta fram uppgifter av bttre kvalitet, s att BNI p ett tillfredsstllande stt kan spela den roll som denhartilldelats.
Gross national product (GNP) (1) gives a measurement of a quantity of production, the real value of which is and remains unknown. 
Med bruttonationalinkomsten (BNI) (1) mter man en produktion vars faktiska vrde r och frblir oknt.
It is calculated on the basis of estimates, information from various sources, economic models and expert estimates. 
Berkningen grundar sig p uppskattningar, sammanstllningar av olika kllor, modeller och expertutltanden.
At Community level, GNP is considered to be the indicator which best represents the Member StatesŐ ability to contribute to the budget. 
BNI anses p gemenskapsniv vara det mtt som bst visar medlemsstaternas frmga att bidra till finansieringen av budgeten.
That is why, particularly since 1988, it has come to play a growing and decisive role in the funding of the Community budget. 
Den har drfr ftt spela en allt viktigare och avgrande roll vid finansieringen av gemenskapens budget, srskilt sedan 1998.
In March 1999 the Berlin European Council decided to increase the weight of the GNP resource in the funding of the budget, with effect from 2002 (2). 
Vid Europeiska rdets mte i Berlin i mars 1999 beslutades att BNI-resursens andel av budgetfinansieringen frn och med 2002 skulle kas (2).
(1) In accordance with Council Directive 89/130/EEC, Euratom of 13 February 1989 on the harmonisation of the compilation of GNP at market prices (OJ L 49, 21.2.1989, p. 
(1) I enlighet med rdets direktiv 89/130/EEG, Euratom av den 13februari1989omharmoniseringavberkningenavbruttonatio-nalinkomst till marknadspriser (EGT L 49, 21.2.1989, s.
26), GNP, of which the version at market prices is applicable for calculating own resources, is calculated on the basis of gross domestic product (GDP). 
26) tillmpas vad gller egna medel BNI Ótill marknadsprisÓ, vilken erhlls utifrn bruttonationalprodukten (BNP).
GNP equals GDP plus compensation of employees and the property and entrepreneurial income received from the rest of the world minus the corresponding flows paid to the rest of the world. 
BNP plus lner samt kapital-och fretagarinkomster som tillfrs landets ekonomi frn vriga vrlden minus motsvarande flden till resten av vrlden r lika med BNI.
For a given period, GDP measures, in monetary and gross value terms (that is to say, without deducting consumption of fixed capital), the final result (goods and services) of the production activity by resident producer units in an economic territory. 
Fr en given period mter BNP i monetra termer och i bruttovrde (dvs. utan avdrag fr frslitning av det fasta realkapitalet) slutresultatet (varor och tjnster) av produktionsenheternas verksamhet inom ett ekonomiskt territorium.
GDP may be presented from three different points of view (the output of resident producer units, the final uses of goods and services by these units or the income generated by these units). 
BNP kan faststllas utifrn tre olika mtperspektiv (de inhemska produktionsenheternas produktion, den slutliga anvndningen av dessa enheters producerade varor och tjnster samt de inkomster som skapas av dessa enheter).
The market prices applied to evaluate, in monetary terms, the goods and services produced include all the taxes linked to the production or importation of these goods and services net of subsidies. 
De marknadspriser som anvnds fr att i monetra termer vrdera de varor och tjnster som producerats innefattar alla skatter som har samband med deras produktion eller import, bortsett frn subventioner.
The GNP and GDP aggregates form part of the definitions in the European system of integrated economic accounts (ESA), the last version of which (ESA 95) was adopted by Council Regulation (EC) No 2223/96 of 25 June 1996 (OJ L 310, 30.11.1996). 
Aggregaten BNI och BNP definieras i Europeiska nationalrkenskapssystemet (ENS) vars senaste version (ENS 95) antogs i rdets frordning (EG) nr 2223/96 av den 25 juni 1996 (EGT L 310, 30.11.1996).
In ESA 95, the concept of GNP that existed in the previous ESA (ESA 79) was replaced for most practical 2 purposes by gross national income (GNI). () European Council meeting in Berlin, 24 and 25 March 1999, Presidency conclusions, III. 
I ENS 95 erstts praktiskt taget det BNI-begrepp som fanns i det fregende ENS (ENS 79), p engelska kallat Ógross national productÓ (GNP), med ett BNI-2 begrepp som p engelska kallas Ógross national incomeÓ (GNI).

This agreement, which was reached by the Heads ofStateorGovernment,calledfortheadoptionofanewdecisionon the system of own resources. 
Detta avtal, som slts mellan stats-och regeringsche-fer, frutstter att ett nytt beslut om systemet med egna medel antas.
Considerable work on harmonising national statistical systems has been carried out since 1989 under the aegis of the Commission. 
3. Omfattande arbete fr att harmonisera de nationella statistiska systemen har gjorts sedan 1989 under kommissionens ledning.
The Court of Auditors has examined the extent to which the Member StatesŐ calculations of GNP can now be considered comparable and reliable for use at Community level (3). 
Revisionsrtten har granskat i vilken grad berkningen av medlemsstaternas BNI efter detta arbete kan anses vara jmfrbar och tillfrlitlig fr anvndning p gemenskapsniv (3).
The audit, which was carried out at the Commission, aimed to establish the level of assurance of the system, at Community level, as regards the reliability and comparability of the statistical data in question. 
Granskningen utfrdes vid kommissionen och syftade till att faststlla hur skert systemet r p gemenskapsniv med avseende p de anvnda statistiska uppgifternas jmfrbarhet och tillfrlitlighet.
It considered the CommissionŐs procedures in respect of Member StatesŐ compliance with the rules for establishing GNP and examined the underlying statistical data. 
Den omfattade kommissionens frfaranden nr det gller medlemsstaternas efterlevnad av bestmmelserna vid faststllandet av BNI samt de underliggande statistiska uppgifterna.
The comparability of GNP between Member States largely depends on taking proper account of two particular aspects of the national accounts, namely their exhaustiveness and the distinction between intermediate consumption and final uses (4). 
Jmfrbarheten vad gller medlemsstaternas BNI beror till stor del p om korrekt hnsyn tagits till tv srskilda aspekter av nationalrkenskaperna, nmligen deras fullstndighet och den tskill-nadsomgrsmellaninsatsfrbrukningochslutliganvndning(4).
The Court analysed information and data for four Member States (5), whose share of Community GNP is about 70 %. 
Revisionsrtten har analyserat information och uppgifter frn fyra medlemsstater (5), vilkas andel av gemenskapens BNI r cirka 70 %.
In addition, in order to consider more fully the reasons for certain anomalies that had been discovered during previous Court audits, the specific question of how VAT evasion is included in the national accounts was also examined in two other Member States (6). 
Fr att grundligare underska orsakerna till vissa anomalier som konstaterats vid tidigare granskningar tog man dessutom i tv andra medlemsstater ven upp den specifika frgan om hur det tas hnsyn till mervrdesskattebedrgerier i nationalrkenskaperna (6).

The ceiling for the own resources contribution to the Community budget is 1,27 % of total national GNP (7). 
Taket fr egna medel som tillfaller gemenskapens budget uppgr till 1,27 % av de sammanlagda nationella BNI (7).
The Court has delivered an opinion on the proposed decision (see Opinion No 8/99 (OJ C 310, 28.10.1999, 3 p. 
Revisionsrtten har avgett ett yttrande om detta frslag (se yttrande nr 8/99, EGT 3 C 310, 28.10.1999, s.
