In order to protect the significant EC investments to date in Kosovo, the Commission is working closely with UNMIK, the European Agency for Reconstruction and EU Member States on a benchmarking exercise to ensure that appropriate institutional actions are being undertaken by UNMIK. 
Fr att skydda de betydande investeringar som gemenskapen hittills gjort i Kosovo utarbetar kommissionen i nra samarbete med UNMIK, Europeiska byrn fr teruppbyggnad och EU:s medlemsstater en resultatjmfrelse fr att se till att UNMIK vidtar lmpliga institutionella tgrder.
PART I Ń FINANCIAL AUDIT FOR THE YEAR 2000 17. 
DEL I Đ REDOVISNINGSREVISION F R BUDGETRET 2000 17.
In order to comply fully with obligations in regard to control under various financial regulations, the Commission, in a communication adopted by the College on 25 April 2001, defined the role of financial control during the transitional period of the reform in the context of devolution of the management of external aid to delegations and agencies. 
Fr att helt kunna fullgra de rttsliga skyldigheterna gllande kontroll enligt olika finansiella bestmmelser har kommissionen faststllt vilken roll ekonomistyrningen skall ha under vergngsperioden fr reformen i samband med delegeringen av frvaltningen av det externa bistndet till delegationerna och byrerna (meddelande frn kommissionen av den 25 april 2001).

In the second quarter of 2001, a DG Financial Control official was exclusively dedicated to the Agency, is regularly on-site and will, inter alia, perform regular transaction controls including those which are ex ante. 
Under andra kvartalet 2001 fick en tjnsteman frn generaldirektoratet fr ekonomistyrning i uppdrag att enbart arbeta med byrn. Han r regelbundet p plats p byrn och skall bland annat utfra regelbundna kontroller av transaktionerna, dribland frhandskontroller.
This new approach aims at combining the advantages of ensuring operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. 
Syftet med detta nya tillvgagngsstt r att kombinera frdelarna som kommer av att operativ effektivitet och efterlevnad av bestmmelserna skerstlls.
The ensuing amendment to the Financial Regulation as well as several key issues concerning the implementing provisions have been the subject of discussions between the Commission and the Agency over the past months. 
Den ndring av budgetfrordningen som fljer av detta liksom flera nyckelfrgor betrffande tillmpningsbestmmelserna har varit freml fr diskussion mellan kommissionen och byrn under de senaste mnaderna.
The final draft is about to be submitted to the Court of Auditors. 
Det slutliga utkastet skall snart verlmnas till revisionsrtten.
The draft amendment to the Financial Regulation also provides for the appointment of an internal auditor. 
Utkastet till ndring av budgetfrordningen innefattar ocks en bestmmelse om anstllning av en internrevisor.
PART II Ń EFFICIENCY OF THE AGENCY: SOUND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AUDIT 22. (a) The Commission, as chair of the Governing Board, has advocated a pragmatic linguistic arrangement which is based on the constructive cooperation of the members of the Governing Board. (b) and (c) The requirement for a Commissioner to be chairman of the Governing Board, and for the Agency to organise the BoardŐs monthly meetings has already been lifted in the new Agency regulation (Council Regulation No 2667/2000) which provides for a more flexible arrangement whereby the Board meets as and when necessary, but at least once every three months. 
DEL II Đ BYRNS EFFEKTIVITET: GRANSKNING AV HURUVIDA DEN EKONOMISKA F RVALTNINGEN VARIT SUND 22. a) I sin egenskap av ordfrande i styrelsen har kommissionen fresprkat pragmatiska sprkliga arrangemang baserade p konstruktivt samarbete mellan styrelsens medlemmar. b) och c) Kravet p att en kommissionsledamot skall vara ordfrande i styrelsen och att byrn skall organisera styrelsens mnatliga mten har redan tagits bort ur den nya frordningen om byrn (rdets frordning (EG) nr 2667/2000 av den 5 december 2000), vilken innehller bestmmelser om mer flexibla arrangemang enligt vilka styrelsen mts vid behov, dock minst en gng i kvartalet.
The new CARDS Regulation adopted in December 2000 clarifies the role of the Board and the role of the Management Committee and no such problems have recurred. 
Den nya Cards-frordning som antogs i december 2000 frtydligar styrelsens och frvaltningskommittns uppgifter och inga av dessa problem har terkommit.

In addition to the particular constraints experienced in Bosnia and Herzegovina as mentioned by the Court, it should be noted that the Commission Delegation in Sarajevo has made only limited use of the suspensive clause due to the fact that the assistance to Bosnia and Herzegovina is no longer immediate post-war emergency support and anticipatory tendering was only exceptionally justified. THE COMMISSIONŐS REPLIES 
Frutom de srskilda problem man konfronterades med i Bosnien och Hercegovina som revisionsrtten nmner br det ppekas att kommissionens delegation i Sarajevo har anvnt sig av frbehllsklausulen i begrnsad utstrckning eftersom stdet till Bosnien och Hercegovina inte lngre r akut efterkrigsstd och anbudsgivning p frhand endast var motiverat i undantagsfall.

The average period for payments applied by the Delegation in Sarajevo (43 days), is well within the contractually prescribed payment period of 60 days.

In the latter, the implementation of return programmes frequently takes place in a hostile environment. 
I Bosnien och Hercegovina genomfrs programmen fr flyktingars tervndande ofta i en fientlig omgivning.
Return programmes in Bosnia and Herzegovina are broader than in Kosovo and cover, in addition to housing, utilities, job creation components and social infrastructures.

Delays over the Blace border crossing were mainly due to the negotiations with the authorities of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia on the scope of the project and UNMIKŐs provision of the expropriation permits. 
Frseningarna vid grnsvergngen vid Blace berodde huvudsakligen p frhandlingarna med myndigheterna i f.d. jugoslaviska republiken Makedonien om projektets verksamhetsomfatt-ning och UNMIK:s tillhandahllande av exproprieringstillstnd.
The Commission considers the AgencyŐs flexible application of the tendering rules to be justified in the light of the special circumstances. 
Kommissionen anser att byrns flexibla tillmpning av anbudsreglerna r berttigad mot bakgrund av de srskilda omstndigheterna.
EUR 10 000 was the average cost of reconstruction per house in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the call for proposals launched by the EC delegation in 2000.

However, a September 2001 study carried out by the EC return monitoring and evaluation facility shows that over a sample of 9 951 housing units rehabilitated since 1996 the average cost has been EUR 7 430. 
I september 2001 visade dock en underskning som gjorts av gemenskapens vervaknings-och utvrderingsorgan fr tervndandet (EC Return Monitoring and Evaluation Facility) att genomsnittskostnaden fr ett urval p 9 951 bostder som renoverats sedan 1996 var 7 430 euro.
UNMIK has improved its capacity for establishing policy frameworks and sustainable investment strategies, and in those sectors where the EC is the leading donor the Commission is providing direct support in defining key policy frameworks and their compliance with EU policy, and is reviewing, with UNMIK, the Agency and with EU Member States, the measures and institutional actions which still need to be adopted by UNMIK to ensure sustainability.

The CourtŐs criticism of UNMIKŐs crisis management approach should take into account the fact that UNMIK operations began only in June 1999, following 78 days of armed conflict between NATO and Yugoslav forces. 
RevisionsrttenbrisinkritikavUNMIK:sstrategifrkrishante-ring beakta att UNMIK:s verksamhet pbrjades frst i juni 1999 efter 78 dagars vpnad konflikt mellan Nato och jugoslaviska styrkor.
UNMIK inherited a province ravaged by war as well as a host of economic and social difficulties arising from 40 years of chronic underinvestment. 
UNMIK fick verta ansvaret fr en krigshrjad provins och en mngd ekonomiska och sociala svrigheter som uppsttt till fljd av 40 r av stndiga underinvesteringar.
Despite the emergency, UNMIK managed to formulate a coherent budget strategy and to procure funding from international donors when Kosovo had no legal status to be eligible for loans from the international financial institutions. 
Trots krissituationen lyckades UNMIK utforma en sammanhngande budgetstra-tegi och skaffa fram medel frn internationella givare nr Kosovo rttsligt inte var berttigat till ln frn de internationella finansiella instituten.
UNMIKŐs public reconstruction and investment programmes for 2000 and 2001 to 2003 have served as a basis for a policy framework. 
UNMIK:s offentliga teruppbyggnads-och investeringsprogram fr 2000 och 2001Đ2003 har legat till grund frenpolicyram.
62. In 1999 and 2000 by far the greatest share of UNMIKŐs work in the power sector consisted of day-to-day management, for which the staff of the Kosovo Electricity Company were poorly prepared.

In the second half of 2000, and with considerable assistance from the donor community (and notably from the European Agency for Reconstruction) progress began to be made on management and structural issues. 
Under andra halvret 2000 brjade man med betydande std frn givarna (framfr allt frn Europeiska byrn fr teruppbyggnad) gra framsteg nr det gllde frvaltnings-och strukturfrgor.
At the end of 2000 there was no comprehensive and medium-term transport strategy, but separate sector strategies have been produced, including a business plan for the railways, and these are providing the building blocks for a properly integrated strategy. 
I slutet av 2000 fanns det ingen vergripande transportstrategi p medellng sikt, men det har utarbetats strategier fr enskilda sektorer,driblandenaffrsplanfrjrnvgssektorn,vilkautgr grunden fr en vl integrerad strategi.
KosovoŐs revenue base had to be created virtually from scratch, which explains why the fiscal regime put in place by UNMIK at the beginning of its mandate, with the primary objective of securing sustainable revenues for the Kosovo budget, may have had some undesirable effects on local production. 
Man var tvungen att bygga upp Kosovos inkomstunderlag nstan helt frn brjan, vilket frklarar varfr den skattepolitik som infrdes av UNMIK i brjan av dess mandat, och vars frmsta ml var att skra varaktiga inkomster till Kosovos budget, kan ha haft en del onskade effekter fr den lokala produktionen.
The Commission has recommended that UNMIK review this policy as soon as the conditions permit a widening of the taxation base. 
Kommissionen har rekommenderat UNMIK att se ver den hr politiken s snart som omstndigheterna tillter ett utvidgat beskatt-ningsunderlag.
To that effect, sales tax was replaced with VAT on 1 July 2001. 
Omsttningsskatten ersattes drfr den 1 juli 2001 med moms.
Its operation over the 12 months to July 2002 is being carefully monitored, and UNMIK is considering further modifications to its fiscal policy. 
Fram till juli 2002, dvs. under 12 mnader, kommer systemets funktion noggrant att vervakas och UNMIK vervger ytterligare ndringar av sin skattepolitik.
The international financing institutions, including the EIB and EBRD, have difficulty in operating in Kosovo because their statutes confine their operations to partnership with sovereign States, and so they have no legal basis for operating in Kosovo. Although the EIB and the EBRD are not yet able to play a role as donors, they have provided valuable advice to UNMIK. 
Det r svrt fr de internationella finansiella instituten, dribland EIB och EBRD, att bedriva verksamhet i Kosovo eftersom deras stadgar begrnsar verksamheten till partnerskap med suverna stater och de fljaktligen inte har ngon rttslig grund fr verksamhet i Kosovo. ven om EIB och EBRD nnu inte har mjlighet att fungera som givare har de bidragit med vrdefulla rd till UNMIK.

The Commission is currently drafting the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) 2002 to 2006 country strategy paper, as well as the three-year multiannual indicative programme, which will be the basis for the AgencyŐs annual programmes in the future. 
Kommissionen arbetar fr nrvarande med utkastet till strategidokumentet fr Jugoslavien fr perioden 2002Đ2006 liksom det treriga vgledande program som i framtiden kommer att ligga till grund fr byrns rliga program.

In the course of 2001 the Governing Board will meet five times which, considering the extension of the operations of the Agency to the whole territory of the FRY, is deemed very efficient.

The Commission considers that the new Council Regulations provide sufficient clarity in respect of the roles of the Governing Board of the Agency and of the CARDS Management Committee. 
Kommissionen anser att de nya rdsfrordningarna r tillrckligt tydliga betrffande vilka uppgifter som tillfaller byrns styrelse och Cards frvaltningskommitt.
The Commission considers that there was still a need for crisis management in 2000 given the scale of the problems at stake. 
Kommissionen anser att det med tanke p problemens omfattning fortfarande fanns ett behov av krishantering under 2000.
However, the Commission agrees that UNMIK should have devoted more effort to shifting more quickly from an emergency to a long-term developmental policy-making approach. 
Kommissionen hller dock med om att UNMIK borde ha anstrngt sigmerfrensnabbarevergngfrnetttillvgagngssttanpas-sat fr krishantering till en lngsiktig utvecklingsinriktad politik.

The agreement of 22 February 2000 reflects the principles of the CommissionŐs reform of financial management and control in April 2000. 
Avtalet av den 22 februari 2000 terspeglar principerna i kommissionens reform frn april 2000 om ekonomisk frvaltning och kontroll.
The absence of an internal auditor does not mean that the AgencyŐs authorising officer(s) and accountant exercised no ex ante controls at all. This is supported by the fact that the Court identified no material errors. 
Att det saknas internrevisor innebr inte att byrns utanordnare och rkenskapsfrare inte genomfrde ngra frhandskontroller ver huvud taget, vilket stds av det faktum att revisionsrtten inte fann ngra vsentliga fel.
The contracts worth 60,9 million euro were already signed by the Commission at the date of the handover. 
Kontrakten till ett vrde av 60,9 miljoner euro hade redan undertecknats av kommissionen vid det datum verlmnandet skedde.

The reason for the delays over the Blace border crossing were mainly caused by the need to reach an agreement with the FYROM authorities on the scope of the project and by delays by UNMIK in providing the necessary expropriation permits.

C 326/2 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning 27.12.2002 REVISIONSRTTENS UTTALANDE 1.
This report is addressed to the Council and the European Parliament, in accordance with Article 8 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2667/2000 (1) of 5 December 2000. 
Denna rapport riktas till rdet och Europaparlamentet, i enlighet med artikel 8 i rdets frordning (EG) nr 2667/2000 (1) av den 5 december 2000.
The Court has examined the financial statements of the European Agency for Reconstruction for the financial year ended 31 December 2001 (see paragraph 11). 
Revisionsrtten har granskat rsredovisningen fr Europeiska byrn fr teruppbyggnad fr det budgetr som slutade den 31 december 2001 (se punkt 11).
In accordance with Article 8 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2667/2000, the AgencyŐs budget was implemented under the responsibility of its Director. 
I enlighet med artikel 8 i rdets frordning (EG) nr 2667/2000 har budgeten genomfrts under direktrens ansvar.
This responsibility includes the drawing up and presentation of the financial statements (2), in accordance with the internal financial provisions provided for under Article 9 of the same Regulation. 
Detta ansvar omfattar upprttandet och framlggandet av rsredovisningen (2) ienlighet med de interna finansiella bestmmelserna enligt artikel 9 i samma frordning.
Without calling into question the audit opinion expressed in paragraph 4, the Court nevertheless draws attention to the situation described in paragraphs 10 and 11. 
Utan att det pverkar uttalandet i punkt 4 vill revisionsrtten dock rikta uppmrksamheten p de frhllanden som beskrivs i punkt 10 till 11.
