The Commission has asked the Fund to re-examine its procedures for appraising projects in the light of the comments made by the Court. 
Kommissionen har bett fonden att se ver sina frfaranden fr bedmning av projekt med ledning av revisionsrttens anmrkningar.
The Commission understands that with regard to the cases cited by the Court, assistance was provided by the Fund on the basis of preliminary assessments of the projects and in accordance with the FundŐs principle of Ôfirst money on the tableŐ, so as to help attract other funding sources to projects. Monitoring and evaluation of projects 21. 
I de fall som revisionsrtten nmner har kommissionen intrycket att std beviljades ur fonden p grundval av preliminra bedmningar av projekten och i enlighet med fondens princip att vara den frsta som skjuter till pengar fr att hjlpa till att attrahera andra finansieringskllor till projekten. vervakning och utvrdering av projekt 21.
Similar findings on weaknesses in monitoring and evaluation were described in the audit report of DG-Audit following the check of October 1998; subsequently the IFI proposed to take a number of measures to rectify this situation. 
Liknande konstateranden om brister i vervakning och utvrdering angavs i revisionsrapporten frn GD Ekonomistyrning efter kontrollen i oktober 1998. Drefter erbjd IFI sig att vidta ett antal tgrder fr att rtta till situationen.

This point should be considered against the background that the IFI is a first funder in many areas precisely because the political and social circumstances are such as to make access to other public funding very difficult without the sort of pump-priming possibilities offered by the Fund. 
Denna punkt br ses mot bakgrund av att IFI r frsta finan-sir p mnga omrden just drfr att de politiska och samhlleliga omstndigheterna r sdana att tillgngen till annan offentlig finansiering r mycket svr utan den starthjlp som fonden erbjuder.
The estimate of 7 000 jobs created can indeed be taken as a measure of performance in strictly economic terms. 
De uppskattningsvis 7 000 nya arbetstillfllena kan sannerligen ses som ett resultatmtt i rent ekonomiska termer.
It does not, however, reflect the total number of jobs arising from projects supported by the IFI for which it claims a leverage function. 
De utgr dock inte hela antalet nya arbetstillfllen som skapats inom projekt med std frn IFI, dr hvstngsverkan anses frekomma.
The reference to the predominance of government organisations and professional bodies as beneficiaries of cross-border projects should be seen in the context of the sociopolitical situation, particularly in the earlier part of the reference period of this report. 
Att det r en vervikt fr statliga organisationer och fackorganisationer som stdmottagare fr grnsverskridande projekt br ses mot bakgrund av den sociala och politiska situationen, srskilt i den tidigare delen av den period denna rapport avser.
The Commission has received assurance from the Fund that this matter is receiving its particular attention. 
IFI har frskrat kommissionen om att den gnar srskild uppmrksamhet t denna frga.
A detailed financial audit on the management and control system of the IFI and implementation by project managers was carried out by its services in October 1998 in conjunction with an on-the-spot exercise to monitor projects. 
Kommissionens avdelningar genomfrde i oktober 1998 en ingende ekonomisk granskning av IFI:s frvaltnings-och kontrollsystem och de projektansvarigas genomfrande, i kombination med kontroller ute p fltet fr att vervaka projekten.
The audit report confirmed that the maximum grant rates had been complied with in cases where projects had been co-funded by Structural Funds. 
Granskningsrapporten bekrftade att reglerna om hgsta tilltna bidrag fljts i fall dr projekt ftt medfinansiering frn strukturfonderna.
A similar on-the-spot audit is under consideration for 2000. 
En liknande granskning ute p fltet vervgs fr r 2000.
With the privilege of hindsight, the Commission believes that this unique Community initiative Ń both in terms of objectives (peace and reconciliation) as well as delivery mechanisms (a truly Ôbot-tomupŐ approach) Ń has proved to be an overall success. 
Med facit i hand anser kommissionen nu att detta mycket ambitisa och nyskapande gemenskapsinitiativ Đ bde sett till mlen (fred och frsoning) och mekanismen fr genomfrandet (ur ett grsrotsperspektiv) Đ har visat sig bli framgngsrikt verlag.
(For specific comments, see relevant paragraphs) Regulatory framework and funding arrangements 32. 
(Nrmare anmrkningar under respektive punkt.) Rttslig ram och bestmmelser fr finansiering 32.
Implementing bodies thus were required to use appropriate methods of targeting social groups and projects in line with the broad objectives set out by the Programme document. 
De genomfrande organen fick allts anvnda lmpliga metoder fr att rikta in sig p mlgrupper i samhllet och projekt som verensstmde med de vergripande mlen i programdokumentet.
One obvious example is the case of District partnerships, which received allocations from the Department of Environment on the basis of a ranking determined by the Robson index of deprivation combined with regional statistics (population, violence, etc) (1). 
Ett tydligt exempel r District Partnerships, som fick medel frn Miljdepartementet enligt en rangordning efter Robsons frlustindex i kombination med regional statistik (befolkning, vld etc.) (1).
The efforts by all implementing bodies involved in the P & R programme have proved to be quite efficient, as the analysis of community uptake in Northern Ireland made by T. Haase (2) shows: the programme has achieved an impressive coverage throughout Northern Ireland with over 80 % of electoral districts generating applications; the distribution of both project applications and funding followed the distribution of the population, being particularly concentrated in urban areas. 
Insatserna frn alla genomfrande organ som medverkar i programmet fr fred och frsoning har visat sig vara effektiva, vilket visas i T. Haases (2) analys av genomslaget i samhllet i Nordirland: programmet har haft ett imponerande genomslag i hela Nordirland dr mer n 80 % av valdistrikten lmnat in anskningar. Frdelningen av bde projektanskningar och anslagstilldelning fljde befolkningens frdelning, srskilt koncentrerad till stadsomrden.
In the border counties, the final evaluation of the programme is expected to confirm that they have also successfully done so. 
I de angrnsande grevskapen i Irland frvntas den slutliga utvrderingen av programmet bekrfta att s r fallet ven i det omrdet.
The financial plan foreseen by the Member States and proposed by the Commission in 1995 reflected the decision of the European Council to allocate ECU 100 million per year for the period 1995 to 1997. 
Den finansieringsplan som utformats av medlemsstaterna och freslagits av kommissionen 1995 terspeglade Europeiska rdets beslut att ansl 100 miljoner ecu per r under ren 1995Đ1997.
The Commission agrees that the allocation of funding for a shorter period of time than the foreseen programme duration may have caused difficulty in the planning in some projects. 
Kommissionen hller med om att tilldelning av medel fr en kortare period n programmets planerade lptid kan ha lett till problem fr planeringen av vissa projekt.
However, it was not entirely negative, as it helped to create a sense of urgency and a momentum in all who participated in the implementation of the programme. 
Det var dock inte enbart en nackdel, eftersom det hjlpte till att skapa en knsla av skyndsamhet och hastighet hos alla som deltog i genomfrandet av programmet.
Furthermore, given the potentially unstable political context in the region as well as the special nature and scope of the P & R programme, the CommissionŐs proposal (3) for a review of progress after three years as a condition for further financing was fully justified. 
Med tanke p den potentiellt instabila politiska bakgrunden i regionen och den srskilda naturen och omfattningen hos programmet fr fred och frsoning var dessutom kommissionens frslag (3) med en versyn av framstegen efter tre r som frutsttning fr ytterligare anslag helt motiverat.

Furthermore, the P & R programme attracted a high number of applications Ń over 22 000 in the period up to 31 December 1997 Ń to be examined by the implementing bodies. 
Dessutom inflt ett stort antal anskningar till programmet fr fred och frsoning Đ mer n 22 000 fram till den 31 december 1997 Đ som skulle granskas av de genomfrande organen.
Under such circumstances, the amounts of commitments and payments, as well as expenditure on projects at the end of 1997 were significantly lower than expected when the programme was adopted in mid-1995. 
Drfr var beloppen p taganden och utbetalningar och utgifter till projekt per slutet av 1997 avsevrt lgre n vad som frvntades nr programmet antogs i mitten av 1995.
The transfers and cancellations of appropriations that took place in 1996 and 1997 were budgetary exercises with the view to reallocating to other Community initiatives the amounts that had not been spent on the P & R programme line. 
De indragningar och verfringar av bemyndiganden som skedde under 1996 och 1997 var budgettekniska verfringar till andra gemenskapsinitiativ av medel som inte frbrukats inom budgetposten fr programmet fr fred och frsoning.
This is normal practice in EU budget management. 
Detta r rutin i EU:s budgetfrvaltning.
In its 1997 progress report, the Commission considered that further funding was required to meet existing and future demand and recommended that the budgetary authority approve additional EU funding of ECU 100 million for 1998 and later a similar amount for 1999. 
I sin framstegsrapport frn 1997 ansg kommissionen att ytterligare medel krvdes fr att tillfredsstlla befintliga och framtida behov, och rekommenderade budgetmyndigheten att godknna tillggsanslag frn EU om 100 miljoner ecu fr 1998 och senare ett liknande belopp fr 1999.
The validity of this choice is confirmed by the fact that the programmeŐs resources were fully committed at the end of 1999, benefiting some 12 600 projects. 
Detta alternativ har visat sig vara motiverat eftersom programmets resurser var fullstndigt tagna i ansprk i slutet av 1999 av omkring 12 600 projekt.
Taking into account the slow uptake of funds for the reasons presented in point 35, the Commission decision on 5 December 1997 was a necessary correction, which aligned financial planning and the execution of the programme. 
Med beaktande av den lngsamma frbrukning av medel som frklarats i punkt 35, var kommissionens beslut av den 5 december 1997 en ndvndig justering av programmets finansiella planering och genomfrande.
The Commission welcomes the decision of the conclusion of the Berlin European Council, in March 1999, which set the amount to be allocated to the PEACE II programme for the entirety of the new period (2000 to 2004). 
Kommissionen vlkomnar beslutet vid Europeiska rdets mte i Berlin i mars 1999, dr man beslutade om det totala anslaget till programmet Peace II fr hela den nya lptiden (2000Đ2004).
The programmeŐs administrative structure 41. Although the scope of the programme is indeed wide and the number of implementing bodies is high, one must bear in mind that the P & R programme is as much about content as about process: from the outset, the programmeŐs administrative structure was therefore designed in order to establish as close contact as possible with grass roots needs within a truly Ôbottom-upŐ approach. 
Programmets frvaltningsstruktur 41. ven om programmets omfattning r bred och antalet genomfrande organ stort, mste man ha i tanke att programmet fr fred och frsoning i lika hg grad rr innehllet som processen: nda frn brjan utformades drfr programmets frvaltningsstruktur fr att skapa en s nra kontakt som mjligt med grs-rtterna.
42. Although administrative practices may have varied greatly due to the decentralised nature of the delivery mechanisms, the Monitoring Committee confirmed the validity of the objectives, priorities, and implementing mechanisms. 
42. ven om frvaltningsrutinerna kan ha varierat i hg grad till fljd av det decentraliserade genomfrandet, bekrftade vervakningskommittn att mlen, prioriteringarna och genomfrandemekanismerna var korrekta.
It also provided common guidelines to all implementing bodies. 
Kommittn tillhandahll ocks gemensamma riktlinjer till alla genomfrande organ.
With regard to the selection of intermediary funding bodies (IFBs), while no competitive selection procedure took place, the Commission engaged consultants to evaluate potential candidates. 
Nr det gller valet av Intermediary Funding Bodies (IFB): ven om inget anbudsfrfarande gde rum anlitade kommissionen konsulter fr att bedma kandidaterna.
In addition, much discussion with the national authorities and with others, such as the community and voluntary sector, preceded the final selection of IFBs and also the establishment of the Northern Ireland Partnership Board and the district partnerships. 
Dessutom frdes omfattande diskussioner med nationella myndigheter och det civila samhllet fre det slutliga valet av IFB och fre inrttandet av Northern Ireland Partnership Board och District Partnerships.
While the IDB was foreseen to be delivery mechanism in the Programme Document (subprogramme 5, measure 2 ÔNew industrial development servicesŐ), the measure was in the end administered by its parent department, the Department of Economic Development. 
Enligt programdokumentet skulle IDB svara fr genomfrandet (delprogram 5, tgrd 2 ÓNya industriella utvecklingstjnsterÓ), men tgrden frvaltades till slut av IDB:s verordnade departement, Departementet fr ekonomisk utveckling.
With a view to ensuring widespread take-up of the Seed Capital Fund under subprogramme 5, measure 7, LEDU engaged a number of agents located in various parts of Northern Ireland. 
I syfte att srja fr en vid anvndning av groddkapitalfonden enligt delprogram 5, tgrd 7, anlitade LEDU ett antal ombud i olika delar av Nordirland.
An audit by the Department of Economic DevelopmentŐs Internal Audit Service concluded that LEDUŐs monitoring arrangements were adequate to fulfil their responsibility for the management of the Fund and that the agentsŐ arrangements for delivery of the funding were satisfactory. 
En revision utfrd av internrevisionen vid Departementet fr ekonomisk utveckling gav vid handen att LEDU:s arrangemang fr vervakning var tillrckliga fr att uppfylla kraven p ansvar fr frvaltning av fonden och att ombudens arrangemang fr utbetalning av medlen var tillfredsstllande.
Information on the names and the activities of the delivery agents was provided in progress reports to the Monitoring Committee. 
Uppgifter om de utbetalande ombudens namn och verksamhet lmnades i framstegsrapporterna till vervakningskommittn.
Advance payments are claimed by Member States on the basis of expenditure reported by final beneficiaries. 
Frhandsutbetalningar begrs av medlemsstaterna med utgngspunkt i de utgifter som stdmottagarna uppger.
To remove any doubt, the final beneficiaries were definitively identified (1) in the CommissionŐs decision of 10 July 1998 which followed the mid-term review of the programme (2). 
Fr att undanrja alla tvivel angavs stdmottagarna slutgiltigt i kommissionens beslut av den 10 juli 1998 (1), som fljde p versynen efter halva tiden av programmet (2).
All implementing bodies are now reporting expenditures on the same basis. 
Alla genomfrande organ rapporterar nu utgifter p samma stt.
In such a wide-ranging programme, a variety of approaches to project selection is to be expected. 
I ett s omfattande program r det inte gnat att frvna att det frekommer olika stt att vlja ut projekt.
This does not excuse the absence of adequate appraisal procedures in certain cases and the CourtŐs comments on this point are noted. 
Detta ursktar inte att det saknades adekvata bedmningsfrfaranden i vissa fall, och revisionsrttens anmrkningar under denna punkt noteras.

With regard to targeting in Northern Ireland, the designation of eligible areas by government departments used the Robson deprivation index, sometimes complemented by other indicators if the assistance had a special focus (health, environment, employment, etc.). 
Betrffande mlinriktning i Nordirland utsg statliga departement bidragsberttigade omrden efter Robsons frlustindex, ibland kompletterat med andra indikatorer om stdet hade en srskild inriktning (hlsa, milj, sysselsttning etc).
An updated version of the Gamma studies deprivation index was generally used as criteria for assessing the merits of individual projects. 
En uppdaterad version av frlustindexet frn Gamma studies anvndes vanligen som kriterium fr bedmning av enskilda projekt.

It will ensure that specific and written criteria for project selection and appraisal procedures by the implementing bodies, particularly as regards methods for assessing the comparative merits of applications and the ranking of projects by scoring or weighting their merits, will be provided in the future P & R programme (2000 to 2004). 
Den kommer att se till att srskilda, skriftliga kriterier fr de genomfrande organens val av projekt och bedmningsfrfaranden tillhandahlls i det kommande programmet fr fred och frsoning (2000Đ2004), srskilt i frga om stt att jmfra anskningar med varandra och rangordna projekt genom pongsttning eller viktning av deras frdelar.
Until the end of 1997, pending the establishment of a central database, IFBs created their own database to control the applications submitted to them. 
Fram till slutet av 1997, i vntan p en central databas, skapade IFB sina egna databaser fr att kontrollera de anskningar som lmnats in till dem.
In the period since the end of 1997, central databases required by the programme have been created, which contain data on project applications and approvals as well as the information provided by project promoters in accordance with the optimum monitoring questionnaire (OMQ). 
Sedan slutet av 1997 har centrala databaser enligt programmets krav upprttats, som innehller uppgifter om projektanskningar och godknnande samt uppgifter frn de projektansvariga i enlighet med frgeformulret fr bsta vervakning (optimum monitoring questionnaire, OMQ).
These data have been used in the preparation of progress reports for the Monitoring Committee and have also been used in analyses made by the external evaluator. 
Uppgifterna har anvnts som underlag fr vervakningskommittns framstegsrapporter och fr analyser av den externa utvrderaren.
No quantified physical and impact targets were set in the programme document to reflect the non-prescriptive nature of the programme at that stage. 
Inga kvantifierade fysiska eller konkreta ml sattes ut i programdokumentet, eftersom programmet d befann sig i ett icke freskrivande stadium.
In the course of its execution, a comprehensive set of monitoring indicators has been developed and is now in use to report progress to the Monitoring Committee, drawing on the data provided by the use of the OMQ. 
Under genomfrandet av programmet har en heltckande uppsttning vervakningsindikatorer tagits fram, som nu anvnds fr att rapportera framstegen till vervakningskommittn med utgngspunkt i de uppgifter som inkommit med hjlp av OMQ.
With a view to the ex post evaluation of the programme, a strategic evaluation model has been drawn up by the external evaluator and other work is in progress to prepare the final evaluation. 
Infr utvrderingen av programmet har en strategisk bedmningsmodell tagits fram av den externa utvrderaren, och vrigt arbete fortskrider infr slututvrderingen.
Impact of the programme 51. 
Programmets effekter 51.
Separate measures administered by separate implementing bodies is a common feature of Structural Funds programmes. 
Separata tgrder som frvaltas av separata genomfrande organ r gemensamt fr program inom strukturfonderna.
In some cases, this may indeed imply that potential beneficiaries must apply to different bodies in order to finance a multifold project. 
I ngra fall kan detta faktiskt innebra att stdskande mste anska till olika organ fr att finansiera ett mngfacetterat projekt.
However, subprogramme leaders (government departments) have played a role in ensuring the implementation of measures was carried out in a complementary manner. 
De ansvariga fr delprogrammen (statliga departement) har medverkat till att tgrderna genomfrts med full komplementaritet. 52Đ53.
On the issue of targeting as regards the overall objectives of the P & R programme, see the reply to paragraph 46.

The Commission notes the findings and will examine this further. 
Kommissionen noterar anmrkningarna och kommer att granska frgan ytterligare.
From 1998 onwards, an adequate monitoring and evaluation system was set up in the form of a comprehensive database, with regular input through the OMQs, recording job creation figures and impact indicators (see also the replies to paragraphs 49 and 50). 
Fr.o.m. 1998 fanns ett adekvat vervaknings-och utvrderingssystem i form av en heltckande databas, med regelbunden inmatning tack vare OMQ, dr nyskapade arbetstillfllen och effektindikatorer registrerades (se ven svaren till punkterna 49 och 50).
In the early years of the P & R programme, little information and publicity activity at programme level occurred as the main requirement was to inform potential applicants about the subprogrammes and measures. 
I brjan av programmet fr fred och frsoning gjordes inte s mycket PR eller spreds information p programnivn, eftersom det viktigaste kravet var att informera potentiella anskande om delprogrammen och tgrderna.
