During our file review we found several cases where the Commission, based on the information provided by Member States to ring‐fence problems applied a proportionate approach and gradually lifted its preventive measures so that the reimbursement of expenditure from the EU budget could be resumed as soon as possible for the part of the programme not affected by the shortcomings which initially led to the interruption or 52 suspension (Box 3). 
Vid vr dokumentgranskning fann vi flera renden dr kommissionen, p grundval av information frn medlemsstaterna fr att ronmrka problem, tillmpade ett proportionerligt tillvgagngsstt och gradvis upphvde de frebyggande tgrderna s att betalningarna frn EU:s budget fr ersttning av utgifter kunde terupptas s snart som mjligt fr den delen av programmet som inte pverkades av de brister som ursprungligen ledde till att betalningarna avbrts eller hlls inne (ruta 3).
During the 2014‐2020 programme period, the Commission is required to follow this proportionate approach36. 
Under programperioden 2014Đ 2020 mste kommissionen anvnda detta proportionerliga tillvgagngsstt36.
The Commission faced difficulties in monitoring the Member States’ implementation of financial corrections and assessing the long‐term effects of the Commission’s corrective measures Information provided by the Member States on their implementation of financial corrections for the 2007‐2013 period did not allow for robust monitoring The Commission should ensure that the financial corrections imposed have been implemented by the Member States in full in all cases 99. 
Kommissionen hade svrt att vervaka genomfrandet av medlemsstaternas finansiella korrigeringar och bedma de lngsiktiga effekterna av kommissionens korrigerande tgrder Informationen frn medlemsstaterna om deras genomfrande av finansiella korrigeringar fr perioden 2007Đ2013 mjliggjorde inte en stabil vervakning Kommissionen br se till medlemsstaterna har genomfrt de beslutade finansiella korrigeringarna fullt ut i samtliga renden 99.
For the 2007‐2013 period, the Commission relies on certificates or letters sent by certifying authorities to ascertain that the agreed amount of financial correction has been deducted by the Member State from its payment claim so that the subsequent interim payment can be authorised. 
Fr perioden 2007Đ2013 frlitar sig kommissionen p intyg eller skrivelser frn de attesterande myndigheterna fr att frskra sig om att medlemsstaten har dragit av det verenskomna beloppet i finansiell korrigering frn sin betalningsanskan s att den efterfljande mellanliggande betalningen kan godknnas.
The format and the content of these documents are not governed by any rules or guidelines, they contain information that the given certifying authority considers relevant. 
Formatet och innehllet i dessa dokument styrs inte av regler eller riktlinjer, utan de innehller information som den berrda attesterande myndigheten anser vara relevant.
In some of the cases examined, the information received by the Commission was insufficient for it to check the execution of financial corrections. 
I vissa av de granskade rendena rckte inte den information som kommissionen fick fr att den skulle kunna kontrollera genomfrandet av finansiella korrigeringar.
So far, the Commission has also not systematically asked them to do so. 
Hittills har kommissionen inte heller systematiskt bett dem att gra detta.
This was particularly the case in the early years of the programme period. 
S var fallet srskilt i brjan av programperioden.
Shortcomings in the Member States’ reporting on withdrawals and recoveries during the 2007‐2013 period identified by the Commission 101. 
Brister i medlemsstaternas rapportering om tillbakadraganden och terkrav under perioden 2007Đ2013 som identifierats av kommissionen 101.
In the 2007‐2013 programme period, Member States were required to send a statement to the Commission each year identifying the amounts withdrawn, recovered, to be recovered and irrecoverable37. 
Under programperioden 2007Đ2013 var medlemsstaterna skyldiga att varje r verlmna en deklaration till kommissionen dr de redogjorde fr de belopp som dragits tillbaka, terkrvts, skulle terkrvas och inte kunde terkrvas37.
This report covers financial corrections imposed by the Commission and those imposed by the Member States themselves. In 2010, the European Parliament and the Council asked the Commission to provide information on the Member States’ corrective capacity for the 2007‐2013 programme period38. 
bde finansiella korrigeringar som gjorts av kommissionen och de som gjorts av medlemsstaterna sjlva. r 2010 uppmanade Europaparlamentet och rdet kommissionen att lmna information om medlemsstaternas korrigeringskapacitet fr programperioden 2007Đ201338.
Between 2011 and 2015 the Commission conducted 47 audits on recoveries covering 19 Member States and 113 OPs selected on the basis of risk. 
Mellan 2011 och 2015 genomfrde kommissionen 47 revisioner om terkrav som omfattade 19 medlemsstater och 113 operativa program som valts p grundval av risk.
For 72 of these 113 OPs the Commission detected important shortcomings. 
I 72 av dessa 113 operativa program upptckte kommissionen stora brister.
Our analysis of all reports related to these audits showed that the shortcomings were in particular related to (a) the management of irregularities by the national authorities (60 %). 
Vr analys av alla rapporter som rr dessa revisioner visar att bristerna srskilt frekom i samband med fljande: a) De nationella myndigheternas hantering av oriktigheter (60 %).
In several Member States the time periods between the detection of an irregularity and its registration in the management information system, and/or the registration of an irregularity and the decision to withdraw or recover the related amounts were considered too long; (b) the completeness and correctness of the Article 20 reports submitted by the Member States (40 %). 
I flera medlemsstater ansgs tidsperioderna mellan upptckten av en oriktighet och dess registrering i frvaltningsinformationssystemet och/eller registreringen av en oriktighet och beslutet att dra tillbaka eller terkrva de aktuella beloppen vara allt fr lnga. b) Fullstndigheten och riktigheten i medlemsstaternas artikel 20-rapporter (40 %).

We note that the Directorates‐General for Regional and Urban Policy and for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion apply similar methodologies to account for unreliable data on financial corrections reported by the Member States. 
Vi noterar generaldirektoraten fr regional-och stadspolitik och fr sysselsttning, socialpolitik och inkludering tillmpar liknande metoder fr att redovisa otillfrlitliga uppgifter om finansiella korrigeringar som medlemsstaterna rapporterar.
Overall, for 2015, the Commission estimates that around 9 % of the amounts reported for ERDF/CF and 4 % reported for ESF are unreliable. 
Fr 2015 uppskattar kommissionen vergripande att omkring 9 % av de rapporterade beloppen fr Eruf/SF och 4 % av de rapporterade beloppen fr ESF r otillfrlitliga.
Overall, the Commission audits indicated that significant improvements need to be made by Member States to improve their reporting on the amounts withdrawn, recovered, to be recovered and irrecoverable during the 2007‐2013 period. 
Sammantaget tydde kommissionens granskningar p att medlemsstaternas rapportering av belopp som har dragits tillbaka, terkrvts, ska terkrvas och inte kan terkrvas under perioden 2007Đ2013 mste bli betydligt bttre.
Our own work also indicates that Member State reporting on financial corrections is not sufficiently reliable39. 
Vrt eget arbete visar ocks att medlemsstaternas rapportering om finansiella korrigeringar inte r tillrckligt tillfrlitlig39.
This risk will however be mitigated in the 2014‐2020 programme period (see paragraphs 124 to 126). 
Denna risk kommer dock att minska under programperioden 2014Đ2020 (se punkterna 124Đ126).
Mixed evidence on the long‐term impact of preventive measures and financial corrections on the error level of a programme during the 2007‐2013 period 106. 
Blandade bevis p de lngsiktiga effekterna av frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar p programmens felprocent under perioden 2007Đ2013 106.
The error rates reported by audit authorities in the Member States for each OP (or group of OPs) and validated each year by the Commission can be considered as an indicator of the effectiveness of the Member States’ management and control systems to prevent and detect errors. 
De felprocentsatser som rapporterats av revisionsmyndigheter i medlemsstaterna fr varje operativt program (eller grupp av operativa program) och validerats varje r av kommissionen kan betraktas som en indikator p hur ndamlsenliga medlemsstaternas frvaltnings-och kontrollsystem r nr det gller att frebygga och upptcka fel.
If these systems work effectively, the level of irregular expenditure should be below materiality. 
Om dessa system fungerar p ett ndamlsenligt stt br nivn p de oriktiga utgifterna ligga under vsentlighetsgrnsen.
annual activity reports and are a key element in the Commission’s assessment of the management and control systems. 
De validerade felprocentsatserna redovisas i generaldirektoratens rliga verksamhetsrapporter och r en viktig del i kommissionens bedmning av frvaltnings-och kontrollsystemen.
If the Commission’s preventive measures and financial corrections are effective, the validated error rates of an OP (or group of OPs) should in general decrease in the long term subsequent to the Commission’s action. 
Om kommissionens frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar r ndamlsenliga, br de validerade felprocentsatserna fr ett operativt program (eller en grupp av operativa program) generellt minska lngsiktigt som en fljd av kommissionens tgrder.
For the 20 OPs selected, we therefore examined the relationship between the evolution of validated error rates and the Commission’s preventive measures and confirmed financial corrections (see Table 4). 
Fr de 20 utvalda operativa programmen underskte vi drfr frhllandet mellan utvecklingen av validerade felprocentsatser och kommissionens frebyggande tgrder och bekrftade finansiella korrigeringar (se tabell 4).
Our analysis showed that preventive measures and financial corrections have a mixed long term impact on the error levels of an OP (or group of OPs). 
Vr analys visade att frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar har en blandad lngsiktig effekt p felprocenten fr ett operativt program (eller en grupp av operativa program).
Based on our analysis, we grouped the OPs examined into three categories: (a) for around one third of the programmes, the OPs (or group of OPs) had validated error rates below the Commission’s 2 % materiality level (seven out of 20); (b) for one fifth the error level was significantly lower than before the Commission took action (four out of 20); and (c) for nearly half of the programmes, there was no evidence that the Commission’s actions had resulted in a decrease in the validated error rates (nine out of 20). 
Baserat p vr analys, delade vi upp de underskta operativa programmen i tre kategorier: a) Fr omkring en tredjedel av programmen hade de operativa programmen (eller gruppen av operativa program) en validerad felprocentsats som lg under kommissionens vsentlighetsgrns p 2 % (sju av 20), b) Fr en femtedel var felprocenten betydligt lgre n innan kommissionen vidtog tgrder (fyra av 20). c) Fr nrmare hlften av programmen fanns det inga bevis fr att kommissionens tgrder hade lett till en minskning av de validerade felprocentsatserna (nio av 20).

From our point of view however the validated error rates are not a perfect indicator of the long‐term effectiveness of the Commission’s preventive measures and financial 56 Category Number of OPs 1. 
Ur vr synpunkt r de validerade felprocentsatserna inte en perfekt indikator p den lngsiktiga ndamlsenligheten hos kommissionens frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar, srskilt eftersom de hnfr sig till hela det operativa programmet (eller gruppen av operativa program).

Moreover, the Commission’s measures usually address specific priorities or intermediate bodies, groups of projects or certain calls for proposals within an OP. 
Dessutom gller kommissionens tgrder vanligtvis srskilda prioriteringar eller frmedlande organ, grupper av projekt eller vissa anskningsomgngar inom ett operativt program.
Finally, the measures address particular types of errors (e.g. specific restrictive selection criteria or problems with the method of selecting projects to be co‐financed). 
Slutligen riktas tgrderna mot vissa typer av fel (t.ex. srskilda restriktiva urvalskriterier eller problem med urvalsmetoden fr projekt som ska medfinansieras).
Therefore, the Commission’s measures in many cases correct/prevent errors related to a part of an OP and are related to certain specific types of errors. 
Drfr korrigerar/frhindrar kommissionens tgrder i mnga fall fel som avser en del av ett operativt program och hnger samman med vissa specifika feltyper.
The Commission made efforts to increase the effect of its preventive measures and financial corrections by extending these measures to other programmes where similar weaknesses have been noted. 
Kommissionen frskte ka effekten av sina frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar genom att utvidga dem till att omfatta andra program dr liknande brister har konstaterats.
This led to an increased impact (see Box 4). 
Detta ledde till att effekten kade (se ruta 4).
The Commission’s reporting on preventive measures and financial corrections made it difficult to get a comprehensive and analytical overview Information on preventive measures and financial corrections is presented in several reports and documents 112. 
Kommissionens rapportering om frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar gjorde det svrt att f en heltckande och analytisk verblick Information om frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar lggs fram i flera olika rapporter och dokument 112.
The Commission should report on preventive measures and financial corrections in a comprehensive and coherent way to ensure that relevant information is accessible and easy 57 Box 4 – Commission good practice in increasing the impact of its measures: Hungary In autumn 2012 the Commission carried out an audit on public procurement related to the Hungarian OPs for the Environment and for Public Administration. 
Kommissionen br rapportera om frebyggande tgrder och finansiella korrigeringar p ett heltckande och enhetligt stt fr att skerstlla att relevant information r tillgnglig och ltt fr intressenter att frst. Vi gick drfr igenom alla publikationer fr 58 Ruta 4 Đ Kommissionens goda praxis fr att ka effekten av sina tgrder: Ungern Under hsten 2012 genomfrde kommissionen en granskning av offentlig upphandling i samband med de ungerska operativa programmen fr milj och fr offentlig frvaltning.
This audit revealed that one of the selection criteria used (compulsory requirement for registration with the Hungarian Chamber of Engineers at the tender submission stage) was discriminatory and the audited programmes were pre‐ suspended in spring 2013. 
Granskningen visade att ett av de urvalskriterier som anvnts (obligatoriskt krav p registrering hos den ungerska ingenjrskammaren vid anbudsinlmningen) var diskriminerande, och vren 2013 gjordes frberedelser fr att stlla in de granskade programmen.
The Commission considered these shortcomings to be systematic and to go beyond the remit of the OPs audited. 
Kommissionen ansg att bristerna var systematiska och inte bara gllde de granskade operativa programmen.
This is why the Commission also interrupted payment claims introduced by Hungary for two additional programmes (OPs for Transport and Social Infrastructure). 
Det r anledningen till att kommissionen ocks avbrt de betalningsanskningar som Ungern lmnade in fr ytterligare tv program (operativa program fr transport och social infrastruktur).
The managing authorities of these programmes were asked to analyse if the same erroneous practices had occurred in these programmes as well. 
Frvaltningsmyndigheterna fr dessa program ombads underska om samma felaktiga metoder hade frekommit ven i dessa program.
As a result of these verifications by the national authorities, the Commission imposed financial corrections on all four programmes. 
Som ett resultat av de nationella myndigheternas kontroller gjorde kommissionen finansiella korrigeringar fr alla fyra programmen.
The Commission reported information concerning its measures to protect the EU budget in several publications. 
Kommissionen rapporterade uppgifter om sina tgrder fr skyddet av EU:s budget i flera publikationer.
The main ones were the annual activity reports of the operational directorates‐general, the consolidated annual accounts of the EU, and the yearly “Communication on the protection of the EU budget”. 
De viktigaste var de rliga verksamhetsrapporterna frn de operativa generaldirektoraten, EU:s konsoliderade rsredovisning samt det rliga meddelandet om skyddet av EU:s budget.
These were complemented by the quarterly reports on financial corrections and the “Annual Management and Performance Report” (until 2014 the “Annual Synthesis Report on the Commission’s management achievements”) (see Table 5). 58 
Dessa kompletterades med kvartalsrapporter om finansiella korrigeringar och den rliga frvaltnings-och resultatrapporten (som fram till 2014 kallades fr den rliga sammanfattande rapporten om kommissionens frvaltningsresultat) (se tabell 5). 59
