They had preferred qualitative indicators29, as these, being based on more subjective appraisal, were flexible to use. Nevertheless, even in such cases, the quality and significance of the indicators depended to a large extent on whether the objectives being pursued were clear and well defined, and this is still an area where significant progress is possible (see paragraph 12). 
De fredrog kvalitativa indikatorer 29 som r smidigare att anvnda eftersom de bygger p mer subjektiva bedmningar. ven i sdana fall berodde dock indikatorernas kvalitet och betydelse i mycket hg grad p om de uppstllda mlen var tydliga och exakta, vilket r ytterligare ett omrde som kan frbttras avsevrt (se punkt 12).
26 Article 185(3) of the financial regulation applicable to the general budget stipulates that the Commission’s internal auditor exercises the same powers over the decentralised bodies as he/she does in respect of Commission departments. 
26 Artikel 185.3 i budgetfrordningen fr den allmnna budgeten frskriver att kommissionens internrevisor ska, med hnsyn till de decentraliserade organen, ha samma befogenheter som han eller hon har i frhllande till kommissionens egna avdelningar.
In this respect, the Commission’s internal auditor has conducted in-depth audits of the application by the agencies of internal control standards. 27 The Commission’s guide ‘Activity-based management and strategic planning and programming, October 2004’ gives examples of such indicators. 
I denna egenskap genomfrde kommissionens interrevisor frdjupade revisioner av tillsynsmyndigheternas tillmpning av normerna fr intern kontroll. 27 I kommissionens vgledning Activity Based Management and Strategic Planning and Programming Đ October 2004 finns exempel p sdana indikatorer.
28 For example: proportion of opinions delivered within a set time limit; number of checks carried out during a certain period as compared with the objectives set beforehand; or rate of increase in consultation of information posted on websites. 
28 Till exempel andel lmnade yttranden inom faststllda tidsfrister, antal utfrda kontroller under en period i frhllande till p frhand faststllda ml eller antal konsultationer av tillgngliga uppgifter p webbplatserna.
29 For example: satisfaction of stakeholders; contribution to the 21 BOX 7 MANAGEMENT PLAN SYSTEM: THE EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENT AGENCY (EEA) To manage its performance, the agency has set up an integrated management control system (the management plan system) which combines various management IT applications: (i) financial applications, which give information about the extent to which commitment and payment appropriations have been used; (ii) the ‘career development cycle’ application, enabling the consistency between job descriptions, individual performance and the implementation of remedial action to be confirmed; (iii) the time-tracking system for recording time worked; (iv) the system for monitoring publications, which links each product to a work programme measure. 
Systemet kombinerar olika dataapplikationer fr frvaltning: i) finansiella applikationer som ger information om i vilken utstrckning tagandebemyndiganden och betalningsbemyndiganden har anvnts, ii) en applikation fr karrirutveckling som gr att verensstmmelse mellan befattningsbeskrivningar, enskilda insatser och genomfrande av korrigerande tgrder kan bekrftas, iii) ett system fr registrering av arbetstid och iv) ett system fr vervakning av publikationer som kopplar varje produkt till en tgrd i arbetsprogrammet.
This integrated system enables management to track the progress of the agency’s projects and the use of resources in real time. drawing-up of Community sectoral policies; relevance of risk analyses. 
Detta integrerade system gr att ledningen kan flja hur tillsynsmyndighetens projekt framskrider och hur medlen anvnds i realtid. tillfredsstllelse, bidrag till utarbetande av gemenskapens politik inom olika sektorer och riskanalysers relevans.
The question of indicators is closely linked to the existence of relevant basic data which do not require significant resources to be kept up to date. 
Frgan om indikatorer r intimt frknippad med frekomsten av relevanta grundlggande uppgifter som kan uppdateras utan strre anstrngningar.
Work on identifying such data was still limited. 
Arbetet med att identifiera sdana uppgifter r fortfarande begrnsat.
Furthermore, the indicators stated in the work programmes were not systematically monitored. 
De indikatorer som anges i arbetsprogrammen vervakades dessutom inte systematiskt.
Three agencies30 had given consideration to introducing results-based performance indicators and are intending to achieve a pilot implementation phase in the course of the financial year 2008. 
Tre tillsynsmyndigheter 30 funderade p att infra resultatorienterade indikatorer och hoppades kunna avsluta ett frsksprojekt som gllde detta under budgetret 2008.
However, whilst it is relatively easy to report on the resources deployed or the work accomplished within the space of a year, it is much less so to report on outcomes or impact, as one year often proves to be too short a period for a large number of measures. 
Det r ganska ltt att rapportera om frigjorda medel eller utfrt arbete under loppet av ett r, men betydligt svrare att rapportera om utfallet eller effekten eftersom ett r ofta r en alltfr kort tid fr mnga tgrder.
In this respect, the importance of the ex ante evaluations and the multiannual programmes (see paragraph 12) needs to be emphasised. 
Drfr br man betona vikten av frhandsutvrderingar och flerriga program (se punkt 12).
PERFORMANCE REPORTS AND EVALUATION 29. Annual reports have to give a full, accurate overview of the activities carried out, the resources deployed and the results achieved. 
RAPPORTER OM OCH UTVRDERING AV RESULTAT 29. rsrapporterna mste ge en tydlig och fullstndig versikt ver bedrivna verksamheter, frigjorda medel och registrerade resultat.
The Court evaluated the quality of the reports provided as instruments for measuring the progress of the work against the objectives set in the work programmes. 
Revisionsrtten bedmde de inlmnade rapporternas kvalitet i deras egenskap av instrument fr att mta hur arbetet fortskrider i frhllande till mlen i arbetsprogrammen.
It also analysed the scope and range of the internal and external evaluations and the recommended remedial measures. 
Revisionsrtten analyserade ocks de interna och externa utvrderingarnas omfattning och rckvidd och de korrigerande tgrder som rekommenderades.

ANNUAL ACTIVITY REPORT 30. 
RLIG VERKSAMHETSRAPPORT 30.
The agencies’ framework financial regulation stipulates (Article 40) that the authorising officer must report to the management board on the performance of his duties in the form of an annual activity report, together with financial and management information. 
I rambudgetfrordningen fr gemenskapsorganen (artikel 40) klargrs att utanordnaren ska underrtta styrelsen om sina tgrder i form av en rlig verksamhetsrapport, med bifogade uppgifter om de finansiella frhllandena och om frvaltningen.
This report must indicate the results of the agency’s operations by reference to the set objectives, and the use made of the resources provided. This provision thus shows that the reporting obligation must relate to performance against objectives. 
Denna rapport ska innehlla de resultat som uppntts i frhllande till de uppstllda mlen och ven uppgifter om vilka resurser som anvnts. Denna bestmmelse visar sledes tydligt att redovisningsskyldigheten ska glla de resultat som uppntts i frhllande till mlen.
The reports dealt for the most part with the activities carried out during the year. 
Rapporterna handlade fr det mesta om de verksamheter som bedrivits under ret.
The extent to which objectives had been met and the impact of the agency’s work were questions that were seldom covered (see Box 8). 
Endast i enstaka fall behandlades frgan om vilka ml som uppntts i frhllande till mlen, till exempel vilken effekt tillsynsmyndighetens tgrd har haft (se ruta 8).
For the sake of transparency, the activity report needs to be structured in the same way as the work programme to which it relates. 
Fr tydlighetens skull mste verksamhetsrapporten ha samma struktur som det arbetsprogram den gller.
Five of the agencies that were audited organised their reports in this way33. 
Fem av de tillsynsmyndigheter som granskades hade fljt denna struktur 33.

This involves supplying targeted information, reliable data and relevant analyses to a number of decision-making bodies. 
I detta ingr att ge riktad information, tillfrlitliga uppgifter och relevanta analyser till ett antal beslutsorgan.
The foundation has developed a system for monitoring the information which it supplies. 
Fonden har utarbetat ett system fr vervakning av den information som den ger.
This system seeks to evaluate the use made of the information it sends to the target bodies and its impact on the decision-making process at the level of the Community institutions and its social partners. 
Detta system frsker utvrdera anvndningen av de uppgifter som frmedlas till beslutsorganen och deras inverkan p beslutsfattandet av gemenskapsinstitutionerna och arbetsmarknadens parter.
The conclusions drawn from this impact assessment system are particularly well described in the foundation’s annual report. 
De slutsatser som dras av detta system fr inventering av effekterna frklaras ovanligt vl i fondens rliga rapport.
The management boards appeared to be satisfied with this partial application of the regulatory provisions. 
Styrelserna verkade nja sig med denna partiella tillmpning av lagbestmmelserna.
They had still not asked for reporting to be done on the basis of the objectives set in the multiannual programmes in order to obtain an overview in terms of the results obtained. 
De hade nnu inte krvt att rapportering skulle gras p grundval av de uppstllda mlen i de flerriga programmen fr att f en verblick ver registrerade resultat.
In general, where the agencies’ management boards based themselves solely on the reports submitted to them, they were not able to precisely identify either the outcome or the impact of the agencies’ work. 
I de fall d styrelserna endast grundade sig p de rapporter de fick in kunde de i allmnhet inte exakt identifiera utfallet eller effekterna av tillsynsmyndigheternas arbete.
In most of the reports, the fact that there was no activity-based budget made it difficult, if not impossible, to establish the link between the actual activities and the implementation of the budget. 
I de flesta rapporterna gjorde det faktum att det inte fanns ngon verksamhetsbaserad budget att det var svrt eller rentav omjligt att koppla de faktiska verksamheterna till genomfrandet av budgeten.
The Commission’s guidelines for authorising officers on the subject of activity reports had not been transposed to the agencies. 
Kommissionens riktlinjer till utanordnarna om verksamhetsrapporter anvndes inte av tillsynsmyndigheterna.
Even though this reconciliation of activities with the budget was a key aspect of the agencies’ governance, the management boards had not adopted any clear guidelines as to the information that they were expecting from management in order to ascertain that the work programmes’ objectives were in fact being pursued. 
Trots att denna koppling r en central del av tillsynsmyndigheternas styrelseform hade styrelserna inte antagit tydliga riktlinjer nr det gllde vilka uppgifter de frvntade sig att f frn ledningen fr att frskra sig om att myndigheten verkligen frskte uppn de uppstllda mlen i arbetsprogrammen.
EVALUATIONS 35. 
UTVRDERINGAR 35.
The framework financial regulation (Article 25, paragraph 4) requires the agencies to regularly carry out ex post evaluations of their programmes and activities. 
Rambudgetfrordningen fr gemenskapsorganen (artikel 25.4) freskriver att program och tgrder regelbundet ska utvrderas i efterhand.
In practice these evaluations provide useful input to the periodic updating of strategies and for organising the agencies’ structure. 
I praktiken ger dessa utvrderingar vrdefulla uppgifter till den terkommande uppdateringen av strategierna och ven till planeringen av tjnster.
Some basic regulations require the corresponding agencies to make an initial evaluation three or five years after they have been set up, followed by subsequent evaluations 25 at regular intervals. 
Vissa grund-frordningar krver att tillsynsmyndigheterna gr en frsta utvrdering tre eller fem r efter det att de har inrttats och drefter med jmna mellanrum.
The agencies always complied with these rules and the evaluations were produced within the time limits. 
Tillsynsmyndigheterna fljde alltid dessa bestmmelser och utvrderingarna 25 gjordes inom faststllda tidsfrister.
Nevertheless, these initial evaluations for the most part only tackled questions relating to the start-up (fitting-out, organisation, recruitment). 
De frsta utvrderingarna tog i huvudsak endast upp frgor som rrde igngsttningen (installation, organisation och rekryteringar).
In most cases, the agencies themselves have carried out internal evaluations of their projects and have called on outside parties to make evaluations of all their activities for a given period (see Box 9). 
Tillsynsmyndigheterna utvrderade oftast sina projekt internt och anlitade externa personer till utvrderingarna om samtliga verksamheter under en viss period (se ruta 9).
Most of the external evaluations had been commissioned by the agencies themselves. 
De flesta externa utvrderingarna hade bestllts av tillsynsmyndigheterna sjlva.
These situations were not without risk to the evaluators’ independence. 
Detta kunde innebra en risk vad betrffar utvrderarnas oberoende.
The conclusions of the eight evaluations that were examined35 were positive overall but in general regretted the vagueness of the objectives being pursued and the lack of performance indicators. 
Slutsatserna i tta granskade utvrderingar 35 var generellt positiva men man beklagade i regel att de uppstllda mlen var fr vagt formulerade och att resultatindikatorer saknades.
For example, in order to assess performance and to compensate for the lack of internal data, the assessors had often conducted enquiries at the agencies’ stakeholders. 34 EU-OHSA. 
Fr att bedma resultaten och kompensera fr bristen p interna uppgifter gjorde drfr utvrderarna ofta underskningar hos de parter som berrdes av tillsynsmyndighetens insatser. 34 EU-Osha.
35 EU-OHSA (1), Frontex, EEA (1), EFSA (1), Eurofound (2), EMSA, EMEA (1) and ENISA (2) had not yet undergone external evaluations. 
35 EU-Osha (1), Dublinfonden (2), Enisa (2), EEA (1), Efsa (1), Emea (1). Emsa och Frontex hade nnu inte utvrderats externt.
26 BOX 9 ASSESSMENT BY BENCHMARKING – THE EUROPEAN MEDICINES AGENCY (EMEA) The agency belongs to the BEMA (benchmarking of European medicines agencies) network, which has the broad aim of contributing to the development of a world-class regulatory system for pharmaceutical products based on best practice in the sector. 
26 RUTA 9 UTVRDERING GENOM RIKTMRKNING Đ EUROPEISKA LKEMEDELSBYRN (EMEA) Byrn ingr i ntverket BEMA (Benchmarking of European Medicines Agencies) vars uppdrag r att bidra till utvecklingen av ett vrldsomfattande regleringssystem fr lkemedelsprodukter som grundar sig p bsta praxis inom sektorn.
It stems from the wish to improve performance at all levels by means of comparing know-how and by learning from each other. 
Det bygger p viljan att frbttra insatserna p alla niver genom att man jmfr sakkunskaper och lr av varandra.
Using a common evaluation system, each agency has performed a self-assessment by measuring itself against 12 key performance criteria and 44 specific indicators covering all its main activities. 
Med hjlp av en gemensam utvrderingsmall gjorde varje byr en sjlvbedmning och mtte sina resultat enligt 12 nyckelresultatkriterier och 44 srskilda indikatorer som omfattade de huvudsakliga verksamheterna.
A team of three assessors from other agencies in the network has then repeated the assessment by applying the same indicators, thus enabling the areas in which the agency is performing below par to be identified. 
En grupp med tre utvrderare frn andra byrer i ntverket upprepade sedan utvrderingen och anvnde samma indikatorer, vilket gjorde att de omrden dr byrn hamnade under genomsnittet kunde identifieras.
Plans to bring these areas up to standard have then been drawn up with three levels of priority (high, medium, low). 
Sedan utarbetades terstll-ningsplaner utifrn tre prioriteringsniver (hg, medel och lg).
The last assessment exercise took place in 2006. 
Den sista utvrderingsomgngen gde rum 2006.
This type of approach allows the thematic networks bringing together a Community agency and national agencies to be strengthened. 
Denna typ av metod kan strka de temantverk som frenar ett gemenskapsorgan och nationella organ.
Hardly any correlation was made between the multiannual programming and the overall evaluations, thus restricting the effect of these exercises. The measurement of performance against aims remained largely intuitive (see paragraph 27). In all cases, the evaluation reports had been examined by the agencies’ management bodies. 
Det fanns knappt ngon koppling mellan de flerriga programmen och de samlade utvrderingarna, vilket begrnsade deras rckvidd eftersom jmfrelsen mellan ml och resultat fortfarande till stor del var ngot intuitivt (se punkt 26). I samtliga fall hade utvrderingsrapporterna granskats av tillsynsmyndigheternas frvaltningsorgan.
However, the drawing-up of action plans for implementing the remedial measures in response to the assessors’ conclusions had not been systematically required by the management bodies. 
Styrelserna krvde dock inte systematiskt att tillsynsmyndigheterna skulle ta fram handlingsplaner fr att vidta korrigerande tgrder som svar p utvrderarnas slutsatser.
In September 2003, a ‘meta-evaluation of the agencies’ was published by the Commission on the basis of the external evaluations available at the time. 
I september 2003 offentliggjorde kommissionen en Ómetautvrdering av till-synsmyndigheternaÓ som byggde p de externa utvrderingar som d fanns tillgngliga.
