As well as the funding of major repairs, there were staffing problems because of the large number of schools located in isolated rural areas. Although the increased take-up of the public social services had clearly improved peopleŐs lives, the sustainability problems affecting the previous programmes (insufficient support by the technical ministries (Health and Education), failure to supply and replace equipment) had not been eliminated. 
Frutom finansieringen av omfattande reparationer fanns det problem i frga om personalen p grund av att ett stort antal skolor lg i isolerade landsbygdsomrden. ven om lokalbefolknings liv klart frbttrades genom att utnyttjandet av sociala tjnster kade hade inte problemen med varaktigheten fr de tidigare programmen lsts: bristflligt std frn fackministerierna fr utbildning och hlsa, uteblivna leveranser och utebliven ersttning av utrustning.
2. Madagascar: with the exception of one secondary school, all the projects visited were of a satisfactory standard and met the beneficiariesŐ needs 3. 
2. I Madagaskar var de projekt som besktes, med undantag av en hgstadie-och gymnasieskola, av tillfredsstllande kvalitet och uppfyllde stdmottagarnas frvntningar.
Malawi: microproject management committees are being set up and will take over the projects once they have been completed. 
I Malawi inrttades frvaltningskommitter fr mikroprojekten och de skall ta ver ansvaret fr projekten nr de har avslutats.
Staff from the management units are conducting awareness-raising activities with these committees in order to engender the sense of ownership and responsibility necessary for the correct maintenance of infrastructure. 
Personalen i frvaltningsenheterna bedriver en informationskampanj tillsammans med dessa kommitter fr att utveckla den knsla av delaktighet och ansvarsknsla som krvs fr att infrastrukturerna skall underhllas p ett bra stt.
Since the secondary schools are fee-paying, their management committees have set up permanent funds to meet regular maintenance costs. 
Eftersom hgstadie-och gymnasiesko-lorna r avgiftsbelagda har deras frvaltningskommitter inrttat permanenta fonder fr det lpande underhllet.
In the case of the primary schools, which are free, the beneficiary communities generally regard the government as responsible for regular maintenance and have not set up funds with parental contributions. 4. 
Nr det gller lg-och mellanstadieskolorna, som r avgiftsfria, anser de stdmottagande samhllena i allmnhet att det r regeringens ansvar att skta det lpande underhllet och de har inte inrttat fonder med frldrarnas bidrag. 4.
Particular importance is given to providing the children with school meals, which encourages attendance, and to housing teachers on the premises, which makes it easier to appoint motivated staff. 
Man anser att det r mycket viktigt att servera mat till skoleleverna fr att uppmuntra dem att komma dit och att ordna bostder till lrarna p omrdet fr att det skall bli lttare att rekrytera motiverad personal.
The principle of free schooling is enforced by the State under the voluntary programme of universal primary education. 
Principen om gratis skolgng freskrivs av staten enligt ett volontr-program om grundskola fr alla.
The schools and health centres visited were in a satisfactory state of repair, but there were huge disparities in the standard of furnishing. 5. 
De skolor och vrdcentraler som besktes var i ett tillfredsstllande skick, men det fanns stora skillnader i frga om utrustningsstandard. 5.
Zimbabwe: the decision by the Council of the European Union to freeze all aid not directly benefiting the population has turned the spotlight on microprojects, the main objective of which is, in fact, to provide direct aid. 
I Zimbabwe leder beslutet av Europeiska unionens rd att stoppa allt std som inte direkt kommer befolkningen till del till att mikroprojekten fr stor betydelse eftersom deras frmsta ml just r direkt std.
In 2002, the financial budgets assigned to infrastructure projects under the twelfth multiannual microproject programme thus proved insufficient on several occasions, owing to the combined effect of the very adverse exchange rate and sudden price increases suffered by contractors. 
Under 2002 visade det sig drfr vid upprepade tillfllen att den finansieringsram som tilldelats olika infrastrukturprojekt inom det tolfte flerrsprogrammet fr mikroprojekt var otillrcklig p grund av den kombinerade effekten av en mycket ogynnsam vxelkurs och de pltsliga prishjningar som de kontrakterade fretagen utsattes fr.
As a result, additional packages were agreed and the work originally agreed was scaled down, to the detriment of the beneficiary communities, which had nonetheless paid their required contributions towards carrying out the projects. 
Som en fljd av detta fattades det beslut om ytterligare finansieringar och det arbete som man ursprungligen hade kommit verens reducerades, p bekostnad av de stdmottagande samhllena, som ju hade betalat den del som krvdes fr att genomfra projekten.
Ń For example, a project to supply drinking water was completed only because of an additional contribution from the beneficiary community. 
Ń Till exempel kunde ett projekt fr dricksvattenfrsrjning slutfras enbart tack vare ett extra bidrag frn det stdmottagande samhllet.
Another project, although virtually complete, could not become operational, leaving the local population with no service at all. 
Ett annat projekt kunde inte tas i bruk, trots att det praktiskt taget var avslutat, vilket gjorde att lokalbefolkningen inte hade tillgng till ngon som helst service.
At one rural clinic located in a region given priority status because of the AIDS epidemic, funds had run out and only half of the equipment financed by the programme had been supplied. 
P en vrdcentral p landsbygden, som lg i ett prioriterat omrde p grund av aidsepidemin, levererades endast hlften av den utrustning som finansierades av programmen p grund av att pengarna var slut.
The beneficiary community had opted to retain the construction materials and to forgo the plumbing in the nurseŐs living quarters, together with additional medical equipment. 
Det stdmottagande samhllet valde att behlla byggnads-materialet och avst frn rrarbetena i sjukskterskans bostad och frn extra medicinsk utrustning.
The EDF-funded equipment in the schools inspected was generally carefully stored and well maintained. 
I de skolor som besktes frvarades och underhlls det EUF-finansierade materialet i allmnhet vl.
Economic sectors 55. 
Ekonomiska sektorer 55.
The problems affecting projects that support revenue-generating commercial activities are linked to the low level of training in the communities in which projects originate, the technical complexity of the projects, the difficulty of fitting them into existing economic channels and climatic risks. 
Projekt som stder inkomstskapande kommersiell verksamhet har problem som hnger samman med den lga utbild-ningsnivn i de samhllen som projekten riktar sig till, projektens tekniska komplexitet, svrigheterna med att f in dem i befintliga ekonomiska kanaler och med klimatriskerna.
In the event, the audit revealed a greater number of dysfunctions in this sector. 
Granskningen visade att det fanns ett strre antal brister i denna sektor.

But the benefits which they bring in terms of development and lasting improvements in living standards is justification for the programmes that are exposed to these risks.

Uganda: the use of loans to finance economic projects, as provided for in the Karamoja microproject programme, suffered a setback which resulted in its being transferred to an autonomous programme run by a specialised microloans unit. 
I Uganda misslyckades den lnefinansiering av ekonomiska projekt som avses i programmet fr mikroprojekt i Karamoja, vilket ledde till att de flyttades ver till ett sjlvstndigt program som drevs av en enhet specialiserad p mikroln.
The microproject programme nonetheless subsidised the construction of several fenced enclosures, a veterinary building and a fiscal building for two projects to facilitate the holding of cattle markets and the collection of local excise duties on the sale of livestock. 
Programmet fr mikroprojekt bidrog nd med std till uppfrandet av flera inhgnader, en vete-rinrbyggnad och en skattebyggnad fr tv projekt som skulle gra det lttare att upprtthlla boskapshandeln och driva in lokala skatter p frsljningen av djur.
These construction projects, which had suffered interruptions preventing their official handover to the beneficiaries, were being under-used at the end of 2002. 
Dessa projekt, som avbrts vid flera tillfllen och som inte verlmnades officiellt till stdmottagarna, hade en reducerad verksamhet i slutet av 2002.
Less than three years after work had been completed, one of them had fallen into considerable disrepair (fencing not designed to withstand the pressure of livestock). 3. 
Mindre n tre r efter att arbetena hade slutfrts fungerade ett av projekten betydligt smre (stngsel hade inte utformats p ett sdant stt att de klarade trycket frn boskapen). 3.
Zimbabwe: economic projects are grant-funded. 
I Zimbabwe finansieras de ekonomiska projekten med bidrag.
Notwithstanding major constraints such as silting and the rapid natural growth of the beneficiary population, the renovation of a gravity-fed irrigation system that had been started in the south-east of the country in 1932 is a positive example of aid for existing projects which have proved effective in the past and also offer significant development potential. 
Upprustningen av ett sdant konstbevattningssystem inleddes 1932 i landets sydstra delar, och trots stora pfrestningar (bland annat igensandning och snabb naturlig tillvxt av den stdmottagande befolkningen) var det ett positivt exempel p det std som ges till befintliga projekt som bde har visat sig vara effektiva i det frflutna och som har en stor utvecklingspotential.
By contrast, in the case of another irrigation system located in the same region, it was not possible to meet the condition set for the projectŐs success Ń namely, the production and marketing of a good harvest. 
Nr det dremot gller ett annat konstbevattningssystem i samma omrde lyckades man inte producera och salufra den goda skrd som var en frutsttning fr att projektet skulle lyckas.
Being a plain, the area concerned necessitated the use of delicate technology (an electric pump) instead of the far more durable gravity-fed system. At the time of the visit, the threat to sustainability was serious, and the electric pump had already partly rusted and was liable to leak. 
I detta slttbygdsomrde blev man tvungen att tillgripa en vansklig teknik Đ elpump Đ i stllet fr det mycket mer hllbara tyngdkraftssystemet. Vid tiden fr revisionsrttens besk var risken stor fr att systemet inte skulle hlla och elpumpen hade redan rostat en del och lckte dessutom.
The profitability of this flour mill is by no means secure 56. 
Lnsamheten fr denna mjlkvarn r nnu inte skrad 56.
The main activities in this sector are the construction of facilities needed, in particular, for irrigation (reservoirs, canals, pumps), crop storage (silos), their processing (mills), the marketing of produce (market places), their disposal (local roads) and veterinary care (vaccination crushes) (1). 
De frmsta verksamheterna inom detta omrde bestr i att uppfra anlggningar fr i synnerhet konstbevattning (reser-voarer, kanaler och pumpar) lagring av skrdar (silor), frdling av dem (kvarnar), salufring av produkter (marknadsplatser), distribution av dem (lokala vgar) och sktsel av djur (vaccinations-blten) (1).
Local craft activities are also financed. 
Lokala hantverksverksamheter finansieras ocks.
Loans financing is practised in certain countries although it has been abandoned in others by reason of low levels of repayment or lack of management expertise in this area. Box 13 Income-generating activities 1. 
Finansiering genom ln anvnds i vissa lnder, medan andra har slutat anvnda den metoden p grund av att satserna p terbetalningen ofta r lga eller p grund av att frvaltarna saknar kunnande p detta omrde. Ruta nr 13 Inkomstskapande verksamheter 1.
Malawi: the main dysfunctions observed concerned loan-funded income-generating projects under the direct control of the national management unit. 
I Malawi gllde de frmsta bristerna som upptcktes inkomstskapande projekt som finansierades med ln under direkt kontroll av den nationella frvaltningsenheten.
A pig farm run by a five-person team had received an initial 11Ú2-year loan and a grant that had not been officially approved. 
En grisfarm som skttes av en grupp p fem personer fick ett frsta ln fr ett och ett halvt r och ett bidrag som inte hade godknts formellt.
As at the inspection date, repayments were subject to a five-month delay because the project team had been unable to feed the animals in such a way as to fetch a reasonable resale price. 
Vid tiden fr besket var terbetalningarna fem mnader frsenade p grund av att de projektansvariga inte hade lyckats fda djuren p ett sdant stt att de kunde slja dem till ett rimligt pris.
One project, a bakery, was ineligible because the loan had been awarded to a single beneficiary who, moreover, held an administrative post at the delegation on the date of the decision. 
Ett projekt Đ ett bageri Đ var inte berttigat till std drfr att lnet hade beviljats en enda person, som dessutom hade en administrativ tjnst p delegationen d beslutet fattades.
Another project, a sawmill, was not operational because of an unrepaired technical fault. 
Ett annat projekt Đ ett sgverk Đ fungerade inte p grund av att ett tekniskt fel inte tgrdades.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS Conclusion 57. 
SLUTSATS OCH REKOMMENDATIONER Slutsats 57.
While respecting the rules of the Lom Convention and the principles of initiative and participation, the multiannual microproject programmes are able, with limited funds, to render a real service to people in poor countries. 
Flerrsprogrammen fr mikroprojekt kan med begrnsade medel ge mnniskor i fattiga lnder ett verkligt std och samtidigt iaktta Lomkonventionens regler och principerna fr initiativ och aktiv medverkan.
By doing so, they provide a convincing example of the effective, economical and efficient use of EDF resources (see paragraphs 38-40). 
Drfr r de ett utmrkt exempel p hur man effektivt, ekonomiskt och ndamlsenligt utnyttjar EUF-medel (punkterna 38Đ40).
Each country has been able to adapt implementation of the microproject programmes to its own structures and politics. 
Varje land har kunnat anpassa genomfrandet av programmen fr mikroprojekt till sina strukturer och sin politik.
The eligibility criteria for multiannual microproject programmes can differ greatly from one country to another, depending on the interpretation given to the terms of the Lom Convention (see paragraphs 14-15). 
Kriterierna fr stdberttigande fr flerrsprogrammen fr mikroprojekt kan skilja sig betydligt frn land till land beroende p hur man tolkar formuleringarna i Lomkonventionen (punkterna 14Đ15).
11.3.2004 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 63/19 provide an appropriate response to essential needs in the great majority of cases. 
11.3.2004 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning C 63/19 enskilda projekt (punkterna 41Đ47) tillgodoser mikroprojekten i de allra flesta fall vsentliga behov p ett ndamlsenligt stt.
The CommissionŐs central services have insufficient information about the multiannual microproject programmes, which limits any assistance that they might be able give to the delegations (see paragraphs 17-20). 
Kommissionens centrala avdelningar har otillrcklig information om flerrsprogrammen fr mikroprojekt, vilket begrnsar det std som de skulle kunna ge till delegationerna (punkterna 17Đ20).
Comparable programmes are not sufficiently taken into account in the design and appraisal of the EDF programmes (see paragraph 11). 
Likartade program beaktas inte i tillrckligt hg grad nr EUF-programmen utformas och utvrderas (punkt 11).
The Commission has not drawn up internal rules and management guidelines dealing specifically with microproject programmes. 
Kommissionen har inte faststllt ngra interna regler eller vgledningar fr frvaltningen som r specifika fr programmen fr mikroprojekt.
This results in a proliferation of local guides of unequal quality (see paragraphs 21-23). 
Detta leder till att det finns mnga olika lokala handbcker av ojmn kvalitet (punkterna 21Đ23).
The legal status of the management units is not adequately explained in programme reference documents (see paragraph 26). 
Frvaltnings-enheternas rttsliga status frklaras inte ordentligt i programmens referensdokument (punkt 26).
Harmful delays have been observed in the completion of programmes (see paragraph 9). 62. Although the accounting and financial management systems used for the programmes are generally satisfactory, there are weaknesses in the internal control procedures and in many cases the management information concerning projects is too little, too much, confused or irrelevant (see paragraphs 30-33). 
Frvaltningsreglerna fr programkostnadsfrslagen fljs inte alltid strikt, srskilt nr det gller att frlnga genomfrandeperioderna (punkterna 27Đ28). desdigra frseningar har konstaterats i frga om programmens genomfrande (punkt 9). 62. ven om programmens finansiella system och redovisningssystem generellt r tillfredsstllande finns det brister i frfarandena fr intern kontroll, och frvaltningsinformationen om projekten r ofta antingen otillrcklig eller fr omfattande, oklar eller irrelevant (punkterna 30Đ33).
Need to maintain the irrigation systems 63. 
Konstbevattningssystemen behver underhllas 63.
There are no appraisals of national microproject programmes that have been carried out a long time after the programmes and which could provide useful information about the sustainability of older projects and enable similar questions to be taken into account in respect of future projects. 
Det finns inga utvrderingar av de nationella programmen fr mikroprojekt som grs efter en lngre tid och som skulle kunna ge vrdefull information om de gamla projektens varaktighet och gra att man i strre utstrckning beaktade liknande frgor infr kommande projekt.
Appraisals that relate to more than one country are too rare and too old to be of use to the Commission (see paragraph 10). 
Utvrderingar som gller flera lnder r alltfr sllsynta och alltfr gamla fr att de skall kunna vara till ngon nytta fr kommissionen (punkt 10).
The lack of reliable, consolidated information on financial aid to small-scale infrastructure in ACP countries means that it is not possible to assess the EDFŐs own contribution in this area (see paragraph 44). 
Det faktum att det saknas samlad tillfrlitlig information om finansieringsstdet till sm infrastrukturer i AVS-lnderna gr att det inte gr att uppskatta EUF:s eget bidrag p omrdet (punkt 44).
Although projects were usually found to be in good condition several years later, their sustainability is still, in many cases, an open question and the quality of the service provided is uncertain, particularly in the areas of health and rural economic development (see paragraphs 53 and 55-56). 
Trots att projekten befanns vara i gott skick efter ngra r r i mnga fall det fortfarande oskert om de kommer att bli varaktiga och kvaliteten p det arbete som gjorts r osker, srskilt nr det gller omrdena hlsa och ekonomisk landsbygdsutveckling (punkterna 53 och 55Đ56).
Recommendations 65. 
Rekommendationer 65.
The Commission is requested to implement the following recommendations: (a) to organise its central services to receive and analyse relevant information concerning the general guidelines and overall results of multiannual microproject programmes, in order to be able to support, improve and promote this useful local development tool more widely; (b) to provide the delegations with a common microproject management guide which takes account of the specific characteristics of the instrument and the experience gained in this area; (c) to pay more attention to the legal status of microproject management units and provide a legal framework for relations between them and their partners, and local authorities in particular; (d) to ensure that implementation through programme estimates is better supervised so as to ensure that the project cycle is properly monitored and that time limits are observed in accordance with the priority expectations of the people; (e) to examine more closely the conditions affecting the sustainability of microprojects and, in particular, the part to be played in that by the local authorities at the different stages C 63/20 EN Official Journal of the European Union 11.3.2004 of each project. 
Kommissionens uppmanas att genomfra fljande rekommendationer: a) Organisera sina centrala avdelningar s att de kan samla in och analysera relevant information om de allmnna riktlinjerna och de vergripande resultaten av flerrsprogrammen fr mikroprojekt fr att i strre utstrckning stdja, frbttra och frmja detta vrdefulla instrument fr lokal utveckling. b) Ge delegationerna en gemensam vgledning om hur mikroprojekt skall frvaltas dr hnsyn tas till instrumentets srskilda knnetecken och till den erfarenhet som finns p omrdet. c) Ge strre uppmrksamhet t den rttsliga statusen hos mikroprojektens frvaltningsenheter och utforma en rttslig ram fr relationerna mellan dem och deras samarbetspartner, srskilt de lokala myndigheterna. d) Se till att genomfrandet genom programkostnadsfrslag kontrolleras bttre s att projektcykeln vervakas p ett lmpligt stt och s att tidsfristerna hlls i enlighet med befolkningens frmsta frvntningar. e) Noggrannare underska mikroprojektens frutsttningar att bli varaktiga och i synnerhet vilken roll de lokala myndigheterna skall ha fr detta ndaml i varje projekts olika faser.
