An EU‐Myanmar/Burma Task Force meeting was held in November 2013 to present to the government the tools and instruments the EU has at its disposal to support democratisation. 
Ett mte i arbetsgruppen mellan EU och Myanmar/Burma hlls i november 2013 dr man fr regeringen presenterade de verktyg och instrument som EU frfogar ver fr att stdja demokratisering.
Chaired by former EU High Representative Catherine Ashton and one of the country’s Ministers of the President's Office U Soe Thane, a series of forums were held to deepen the bilateral relationship in a number of areas, including development assistance, civil society, the peace process, and trade and investment. 
En rad forum hlls under ledning av EU:s tidigare hga representant Catherine Ashton och en av landets ministrar vid presidentens kansli U Soe Thane fr att frdjupa det bilaterala frhllandet inom ett antal omrden, inbegripet utvecklingsbistnd, civilsamhllet, fredsprocessen samt handel och investeringar.
The Task Force meeting was followed by EU‐Myanmar Human Rights Dialogues, which explored how EU assistance could support efforts to foster human rights, democratic governance and the rule of law on the ground. 
Mtet i arbetsgruppen fljdes av mnniskorttsdialoger mellan EU och Myanmar dr man underskte hur EU:s bistnd skulle kunna stdja arbetet med att frmja mnskliga rttigheter, demokratisk samhllsstyrning och rttsskerhet i praktiken.
The EU offered to support the Myanmar government in ratifying international human rights conventions and instruments. 
EU erbjd std till Myanmars regering fr att ratificera internationella verenskommelser och instrument om mnskliga rttigheter.
The EU also deployed an Election Observation Mission to observe the general election on 8 November 2015. 
EU snde ocks ut valobservatrer fr att observera det allmnna valet den 8 november 2015.
The EU has allocated more than one billion euro for the 2007‐2020 period (see Table 1), mainly under bilateral, regional and thematic instruments2. 
EU har anslagit mer n en miljard euro fr perioden 2007Đ2020 (se tabell 1) frmst genom bilaterala, regionala och tematiska instrument2.

2 Finansieringsinstrument kan vara landbaserade (bilaterala), regionala eller inriktade p ett specifikt tema.
Under the 2007‐2013 Multiannual Indicative Programme (MIP) the EU provided bilateral funding for two focal sectors, i.e. education and health. 
Genom det flerriga vgledande programmet fr 2007Đ2013 tillhandahll EU bilateralt std till tv mlsektorer, nmligen utbildning och hlso-och sjukvrd.
In 2012, in order to keep up the momentum of the reforms, the EU provided further support to the country under a “Special Package” amounting to 150 million euro. 
Fr att upprtthlla reformtakten tillhandahll EU r 2012 ytterligare std till landet genom ett ÓspecialpaketÓ som uppgick till 150 miljoner euro.
Given this funding, bilateral support was broadened to cover two more focal sectors, i.e. peacebuilding and trade. 
Tack vare dessa medel vidgades det bilaterala stdet till att omfatta ytterligare tv mlsektorer, nmligen fredsbyggande och handel.
Under the 2014‐2020 MIP, bilateral funding totalling 688 million euro has been allocated to four focal sectors: rural development, education, governance and peacebuilding. 
Genom det flerriga vgledande programmet fr 2014Đ2020 har bilateralt std p totalt 688 miljoner euro anslagits till fyra mlsektorer: landsbygdsutveckling, utbildning, samhllsstyrning och fredsbyggande.
Together with assistance to the country under thematic and regional programmes and instruments, EU funding for the country over the seven‐year period comes to 746.3 million euro. 
Tillsammans med bistndet genom tematiska och regionala program och instrument uppgr EU:s std till landet till 746,3 miljoner euro under sjursperioden.
The funding allocated to each sector for the period 2007‐2020 is set out in Figure 1. 9 
De medel som anslagits till varje sektor fr perioden 2007Đ2020 anges i figur 1. 10
13. The funds were implemented using both the direct and indirect management modes.3 In 2016 the EU channelled 63 %4 of funding to the country under indirect management, mostly through UN‐agencies. 
13 Stdet genomfrdes genom bde direkt och indirekt frvaltning.3 Under 2016 kanaliserade EU 63 %4 av anslagen till landet med hjlp av indirekt frvaltning, oftast via FN-organ.
The following Trust Funds were involved: the Livelihoods and Food Security Trust Fund (LIFT), the Quality Basic Education Programme (QBEP), the Three Millennium Development Goals Fund (3MDG) and the Joint Peace Fund (JPF). 
Fljande frvaltningsfonder var involverade: LIFT (fonden fr frsrjning och livsmedelstrygghet), QBEP (programmet fr std till grundlggande utbildning), 3MDG (fonden fr std till uppfyllandet av tre av millennieutvecklingsmlen) och JPF (den gemensamma fredsfonden).
The percentage of the EU’s contributions to the Funds ranged between 11 % and 37 % (see details in Annex II). 
EU:s bidrag till fonderna motsvarade mellan 11 och 37 % (fr detaljer se bilaga II).
Direct management expenditure, consisting primarily of grants, accounted for 37 % of the overall portfolio. 14. 
Utgifterna under direkt frvaltning, som frmst utgjordes av bidrag, stod fr 37 % av den samlade portfljen.
The country has received support from many donors. 
Landet har mottagit std frn mnga givare.
Over the 2012‐2016 period donor commitments from all sources totalled over 8 billion USD. 
Under perioden 2012Đ2016 motsvarade tagandena frn givare frn alla kllor totalt ver tta miljarder US-dollar.
In addition to the aid from the EU, the country received commitments from Japan (3.3 billion USD), the World Bank (1 billion USD), the UK (593 million USD) and the US (477 million USD)5. 
Utver stdet frn EU mottog landet taganden frn Japan (3,3 miljarder US-dollar), Vrldsbanken (1 miljard US-dollar), Storbritannien (593 miljoner US-dollar) och USA (477 miljoner US-dollar)5.
The audit examined whether EU support to Myanmar/Burma was effective by addressing the following three questions: (a) Did the European External Action Service (EEAS) and the Commission support well established development priorities? (b) Did the Commission manage EU development aid well? (c) Did the EU’s development support achieve its objectives? 
REVISIONENS INRIKTNING OCH OMFATTNING OCH SAMT REVISIONSMETOD 15 Vi granskade huruvida EU:s bistnd till Myanmar/Burma var ndamlsenligt genom att stlla fljande tre frgor: a) Stdde utrikestjnsten och kommissionen noggrant faststllda utvecklingsprioriteringar? b) Frvaltade kommissionen EU:s utvecklingsbistnd vl? c) Uppnddes mlen med EU:s utvecklingsstd?
3 4 5 11 Under direct management the European Commission is in charge of all EU budget implementation tasks, which are performed directly by its departments either at its headquarters or in the EU Delegations. 
3 4 5 12 Vid direkt frvaltning ansvarar Europeiska kommissionen fr alla uppgifter som rr EU:s budgetgenomfrande. Uppgifterna utfrs direkt av kommissionens avdelningar, antingen vid huvudkontoret eller vid EU:s delegationer.
Under indirect management the Commission entrusts budget implementation tasks to international organisations, the development agencies of EU Member States, partner countries or other bodies. 
Vid indirekt frvaltning delegerar kommissionen uppgifter som rr budgetgenomfrandet till internationella organisationer, utvecklingsorgan i EU:s medlemsstater eller partnerlnder eller andra organ.

We examined 20 projects ‐ 11 projects under the indirect management mode (of which 10 were managed by Trust Funds6 and one was implemented by a Member State Agency7), and nine projects under direct management8. 
Vi underskte 20 projekt Đ 11 projekt under indirekt frvaltning (varav 10 frvaltades av frvaltningsfonder6 och 1 genomfrdes av ett medlemsstatsorgan7) och 9 projekt under direkt frvaltning8.
The details of the projects audited are provided in Annex III. 
Nrmare uppgifter om de granskade projekten finns i bilaga III.
The audit work involved a desk review of documentary evidence, such as programming documents and monitoring and evaluation reports. 
Revisionsarbetet omfattade en skrivbordsgranskning av styrkande dokument ssom programplaneringsdokument och rapporter frn vervakning och utvrdering.
It included a mission on the spot and interviews with staff from the Directorate‐General for International Cooperation and Development (DG DEVCO), the EEAS, the EU Delegation and the Directorate‐General for European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (DG ECHO), as well as representatives of EU Member States to Myanmar/Burma, other donors, and implementing partners. 
I arbetet ingick ett besk p plats och intervjuer med personal frn generaldirektoratet fr internationellt samarbete och utveckling, utrikestjnsten, EU-delegationen och generaldirektoratet fr europeiskt civilskydd och humanitra bistndstgrder (Echo) samt EU-medlemsstaternas fretrdare i Myanmar/Burma, andra givare och genomfrandepartner.
OBSERVATIONS Despite certain weaknesses, the EU played a leading role in supporting established development priorities 18. 
IAKTTAGELSER Trots vissa brister spelade EU en ledande roll fr att stdja faststllda utvecklingsprioriteringar 18.
In order to answer the first audit question (see paragraph 15), we assessed whether the EEAS and the Commission had addressed the country’s needs. 
Fr att f svar p den frsta revisionsfrgan (se punkt 15) bedmde vi huruvida utrikestjnsten och kommissionen hade tillgodosett landets behov.
We also assessed whether the Commission’s development priorities were sufficiently focused and whether it had coordinated them with other donors. 
Vi bedmde ocks huruvida kommissionens utvecklingsprioriteringar var tillrckligt riktade och om kommissionen hade samordnat dem med andra givare.

They initiated human rights dialogue, deployed an Election Observation Mission and engaged in the peace process. 
De inledde en mnniskorttsdialog, snde ut valobservatrer och deltog i fredsprocessen.
The EU Delegation to Myanmar/Burma was set up in 2013. 
EU:s delegation till Myanmar/Burma inrttades 2013.
Despite the new structure of the EU Delegation and the local challenges encountered, the EEAS and the Commission established an early and active policy dialogue with the national authorities and ensured that extensive knowledge‐gathering was carried out. 
Trots den nya strukturen fr EU:s delegation och de lokala utmaningar man mtte, inrttade utrikestjnsten och kommissionen en tidig och aktiv politisk dialog med de nationella myndigheterna och sg till att omfattande kunskaper samlades in.
The government of Myanmar/Burma has not agreed a national plan for the country’s development. 
Regeringen i Myanmar/Burma har inte enats om en nationell plan fr landets utveckling.
The needs of the country were extensive and covered many areas, including peace, education, health, agricultural development, governance and institutional capacity. 
Landets behov var omfattande och rrde mnga omrden, bland annat fred, utbildning, hlso-och sjukvrd, jordbrukets utveckling, samhllsstyrning och institutionell kapacitet.
The choice of sectors to be supported was determined in consultation with stakeholders, and the government considered that this tied in with its general development priorities. 
Valet av sektorer som skulle f std avgjordes i samrd med berrda parter, och regeringen ansg att de motsvarade dess allmnna utvecklingsprioriteringar.
The EU has allocated significant funding to the country to support development priorities (see paragraph 9). 
EU har gett landet mycket stora anslag fr att stdja utvecklingsprioriteringar (se punkt 9).
The choice of development priorities was not sufficiently focused 21. 
Valet av utvecklingsprioriteringar var inte tillrckligt riktat 21.
Within the framework of the MIPs for Myanmar/Burma, the EEAS and the Commission specified the development priorities and funding allocations. 
Inom ramen fr de flerriga vgledande programmen fr Myanmar/Burma specificerade utrikestjnsten och kommissionen utvecklingsprioriteringar och anslag av medel.
Programming had to be in line with global EU development‐policy priorities and implement the 2011 Agenda for Change10. 
Programplaneringen mste ligga i linje med de vergripande prioriteringarna fr EU:s utvecklingspolitik och genomfra agendan fr frndring frn 201110.
It also had to ensure coherence and complementarity between the various donors and alignment with government priorities. 
Den mste ocks garantera samstmmighet och komplementaritet mellan de olika givarna och verensstmmelse med regeringens prioriteringar.
The primary objective of the 2011 Agenda for Change was to significantly increase the impact and effectiveness of EU development policy. 
Det primra mlet med agendan fr frndring frn 2011 var att gra EU:s utvecklingspolitik betydligt effektivare och mer ndamlsenlig.
The Commission decision to increase the number of focal sectors from two to four (see paragraphs 10 to 12) was not clearly justified in accordance with the Commission’s own 10 13 The primary objective of the Agenda for Change, adopted in 2011, is to significantly increase the impact and effectiveness of EU development policy. 
Kommissionens beslut att ka antalet mlsektorer frn tv till fyra (se punkterna 10Đ12) var inte tydligt motiverat i enlighet med kommissionens egna 10 14 Det primra mlet med agendan fr frndring, som antogs 2011, r att avsevrt ka effekterna av och ndamlsenligheten i EU:s utvecklingspolitik.

operating guidelines, and did not take account of the EU Delegation’s capacity to cope with such a large development portfolio in a complex working environment. 
operativa riktlinjer, och det tog inte hnsyn till EU-delegationens kapacitet att hantera en s stor utvecklingsportflj i en komplex arbetssituation.
Furthermore, the Commission did not sufficiently assess geographical priorities in terms of regions. 
Vidare bedmde kommissionen inte i tillrcklig grad de geografiska prioriteringarna sett till regioner.
For example, the first study on Rakhine state’s specific needs (see paragraph 4) was not carried out until 2017. 
Exempelvis gjordes den frsta studien av srskilda behov i delstaten Rakhine (se punkt 4) inte frrn 2017.
The generation of government revenue from tax or non‐tax sources is a crucial factor in sustainable development, particularly in a country rich in natural resources (see paragraph 2). 
Att skatter och andra kllor genererar statliga intkter r en avgrande faktor fr hllbar utveckling, srskilt i ett land som r rikt p naturtillgngar (se punkt 2).
However, domestic revenue mobilisation was not given due consideration in determining the priorities, even though it is key to Myanmar’s development. 
Men mobilisering av inhemska intkter gavs inte skligt vervgande nr prioriteringarna faststlldes, trots att det r en nyckelfaktor fr Myanmars utveckling.
The level of coordination varied 25. 
Graden av samordning varierade 25.
Once the civilian government came to power in Myanmar/Burma there was a rapid influx of donors with funds for development (see paragraph 14). 
Nr den civila regeringen kom till makten i Myanmar/Burma skedde en snabb tillstrmning av givare som bidrog med medel till utvecklingen (se punkt 14).
The country’s government and the development partners had regular meetings and exchanges of information to ensure donor coordination. 
Landets regering och utvecklingspartner hll regelbundna mten och utbytte information fr att skapa samordning mellan givarna.
The EU took an active part in the cooperation fora. 
EU deltog aktivt i samarbetsforumen.
The EU and its Member States set up the 2014‐2016 Joint Programming Strategy to promote aid effectiveness. 
EU och dess medlemsstater upprttade en gemensam programstrategi fr 2014Đ2016 fr att frmja ndamlsenligheten i bistndet.
Joint Programming was achieved in spite of the absence of a national development plan and was one of the first such examples worldwide. Even though aid‐effectiveness gains were modest in terms of reducing aid fragmentation, the joint programming process brought about improved transparency, predictability and visibility. 
En gemensam programplanering uppnddes trots att det saknades en nationell utvecklingsplan och detta var ett av det frsta sdana exemplen i vrlden. ven om vinsterna i frga om bistndets ndamlsenlighet var ganska sm nr det gller att minska fragmenteringen, s ledde den gemensamma programplaneringsprocessen till frbttrad insyn, frutsgbarhet och synlighet.
However, coordination between DG ECHO and DG DEVCO was inadequate. 
Samordningen mellan Echo och GD Internationellt samarbete och utveckling var dock otillrcklig.
Humanitarian aid is much needed in certain regions of Myanmar/Burma, particularly in the states of Rakhine and Kachin. 
Det finns ett stort behov av humanitrt bistnd i vissa regioner i Myanmar/Burma, framfr allt i delstaterna Rakhine och Kachin.
Between 2012 and 2016 the European Commission, through DG ECHO, provided some 95 million euro to relief programmes for food security and to assist victims of conflict. 
Mellan 2012 och 2016 tillhandahll Europeiska kommissionen genom Echo omkring 95 miljoner euro till stdprogram fr att trygga livsmedelsfrsrjningen och bist konfliktoffer.
Even though both Commission DGs were active in the country, EU humanitarian interventions were not taken into account sufficiently when programmes were formulated. 
Trots att kommissionens bda generaldirektorat var verksamma i landet togs inte tillrcklig hnsyn till EU:s humanitra insatser nr programmen utformades.
There was also no joint implementation plan linking relief, rehabilitation and 14 
Det fanns heller ingen gemensam 15 genomfrandeplan fr att knyta samman katastrof-, teranpassnings-och utvecklingsbistnd.
There were examples of cooperation in the spheres of humanitarian and development aid, but they constituted the exception rather than the rule. 
Det fanns exempel p samarbete inom omrdena humanitrt bistnd och utvecklingsbistnd, men de exemplen utgjorde undantag snarare n regel.
Moreover, DG ECHO was not included in the 2014‐2016 Joint Programming Strategy defined by the Commission and the Member States (paragraph 26). 
Dessutom ingick inte Echo i den gemensamma programstrategin fr 2014Đ2016 som upprttades av kommissionen och medlemsstaterna (punkt 26).
This was a missed opportunity to improve coordination, given that humanitarian assistance is expected in areas of protracted crisis, which is the case with some of the country’s regions. 
Det innebar en frsummad mjlighet att frbttra samordningen med tanke p att humanitrt bistnd ska anvndas i omrden med lngvariga krissituationer, vilket r fallet i vissa av landets regioner.
A procedure for exchange of information between DG DEVCO and DG ECHO was not formalised until September 2016. 
Ett frfarande fr informationsutbyte mellan GD Internationellt samarbete och utveckling och Echo formaliserades inte frrn i september 2016.
The Commission’s management of EU development aid was generally satisfactory but was affected by delays and shortcomings 29. 
Kommissionens frvaltning av EU:s utvecklingsbistnd var i allmnhet tillfredsstllande men drabbades av frseningar och brister 29.
In order to answer the second audit question (see paragraph 15) we assessed whether the Commission had identified and implemented the actions well and selected the appropriate aid modality. 
Fr att f svar p den andra revisionsfrgan (se punkt 15) bedmde vi huruvida kommissionen hade identifierat och genomfrt tgrderna vl och valt lmplig stdform.
We also assessed whether the Commission had coordinated the actions with other donors, and the actions had been monitored properly. Actions were relevant but there were setbacks 30. 
Vi bedmde ocks huruvida kommissionen hade samordnat tgrderna med andra givare och om tgrderna hade vervakats p lmpligt stt. tgrderna var relevanta men drabbades av motgngar 30.
Under each MIP the Commission adopts financing decisions, i.e. Annual Action Programmes (AAPs), that define the actions, aid modality and total amount of funding for each action. 
Fr varje flerrigt vgledande program antar kommissionen finansieringsbeslut i form av rliga tgrdsprogram dr man faststller tgrder, stdformer och totalt finansieringsbelopp fr varje tgrd.
The actions selected were in line with the priorities determined. 
Det valda tgrderna lg i linje med de faststllda prioriteringarna.
However, although the focal sectors and the actions supported were in line with government priorities (see paragraph 20), the Commission did not document the determination of the amount of funding, both for each sector under the MIP and for each action under the AAPs. 
Men ven om de mlsektorer och tgrder som stddes lg i linje med regeringens prioriteringar (se punkt 20) dokumenterade inte kommissionen faststllandet av finansieringsbeloppen fr varje sektor inom det flerriga vgledande programmet och fr varje tgrd i de rliga tgrdsprogrammen.
The 2016 AAP was not adopted, as some Member States were not supportive of the approach proposed prior to a meeting of the Development Cooperation Instrument (DCI) Committee. 
Det rliga tgrdsprogrammet fr 2016 antogs inte, eftersom ngra medlemsstater inte stdde den strategi som freslagits infr ett mte i kommittn fr finansieringsinstrumentet fr utvecklingssamarbete.
The Commission decided to withdraw the proposal. 
Kommissionen beslutade att dra tillbaka frslaget.
