The Office and the IAS agreed on a plan to take corrective action. In 2016 the Office faced several challenges in its operating environment, including not only a substantial increase in its budget and expansion of its tasks, but also a significant increase in the number of transactions, a change of the accounting officer (accountant) with several interim solutions and the introduction of a paperless workflow system. 
Stdkontoret och tjnsten fr internrevision har enats om en plan fr korrigerande tgrder. r 2016 stlldes stdkontoret infr flera utmaningar nr det gllde de operativa frutsttningarna. Bland annat kade dess budget kraftigt och utvidgades dess uppgifter, men antalet transaktioner kade ocks betydligt, rkenskapsfraren (revisor) byttes ut genom flera tillflliga lsningar och ett papperslst arbetsfldessystem infrdes.
This situation of considerable change and instability was neither mitigated by a re-validation of the accounting system nor by introducing a system of regular ex post verifications of transactions. In 2014, the Commission on behalf of more than 50 EU Institutions and bodies including the Office signed a framework contract with one contractor for the acquisition of software licences and the provision of maintenance and support. The framework contractor acts as an intermediary between the Office and suppliers that can address the OfficeŐs needs. 
Denna situation prglad av stora frndringar och instabilitet mildrades varken genom att redovisningssystemet validerades p nytt eller genom att ett system fr regelbundna efterhandskontroller av transaktioner infrdes. r 2014 undertecknade kommissionen, som fretrdare fr ver 50 av EU:s institutioner och organ (dribland stdkontoret), ett ramavtal med en entreprenr fr inkp av programvara och licenser samt tillhandahllande av underhll och std. Entreprenren fungerar enligt ramavtalet som en mellanhand mellan stdkontoret och leverantrer som kan tillgodose stdkontorets behov.
In 2016, total payments to the framework contractor amounted to 534900 euros. The Office did not systematically check prices and uplifts charged with the suppliersŐ quotes and invoices issued to the framework contractor. 
Betalningarna 2016 till entreprenren enligt ramavtalet uppgick till totalt 534 900 euro. Stdkontoret kontrollerade inte systematiskt priser och uttagna pslag mot leverantrernas offerter och fakturor till entreprenren.
An external evaluation of the OfficeŐs performance in the period 2011 to 2014 was prepared on behalf of the Commission and the final report was delivered in December 2015. It confirmed the relevance of the OfficeŐs mission and tasks and concluded an overall effective implementation of its key tasks and that the majority of expected results had been achieved. 
En extern utvrdering av stdkontorets resultat under perioden 2011Đ2014 har genomfrts p uppdrag av kommissionen. En slutrapport lades fram i december 2015. Den bekrftade betydelsen av stdkontorets uppdrag och uppgifter och konstaterade att de viktigaste uppgifterna generellt sett hade genomfrts p ett ndamlsenligt stt och att merparten av de frvntade resultaten hade uppntts.
The evaluation also referred to a need to increase the efficiency of operations and to further ensure cooperation and coherence of activities with other EU and international institutions and bodies working on migration issues. 
I utvrderingen nmndes ocks behovet av att gra insatserna effektivare och att i hgre grad skerstlla samarbete och samstmdhet i verksamheterna med andra EU-institutioner och EU-organ och internationella institutioner och organ som arbetar med migrationsfrgor.
The Office is implementing an action plan agreed with the Management Board in the light of its extended mandate, with the final implementation report planned for June 2017. 
Stdkontoret genomfr nu en handlingsplan som styrelsen har beslutat om mot bakgrund av det utvidgade mandatet.

30.11.2018 Official Journal of the European Union C 434/125 EN Court's observations The Office purchased and installed 65 containers to be used as mobile offices on the Greek and Italian hot-spots for a total amount of 852 136 euros. 
30.11.2018 Europeiska unionens officiella tidning C 434/125 SV Revisionsrttens kommentarer Stdkontoret kpte och installerade 65 containrar fr anvndning som mobila kontor vid de grekiska och italienska mottaganings-centrumen till ett totalt belopp av 852136 euro.
Some of the containers were placed in a location where similar containers not belonging to the Office were later destroyed by riots. 
En del av containrarna placerades p en plats dr liknande containrar som inte tillhrde stdkontoret senare frstrdes i samband med upplopp.
The Office has not covered the containers against this risk with an insurance contract. 
Stdkontoret har inte skyddat containrarna mot den risken genom ett frskringsavtal.
The Office has not recovered all its due receivables in a timely manner. VAT reimbursements for the years 2014 (180 919 euros) and 2015 (245960 euros) remained unrecovered at the end of 2016. 
Stdkontoret har inte krvt in alla sina frfallna fordringar i tid. terbetalningar av mervrdesskatt fr ren 2014 (180919 euro) och 2015 (245 960 euro) hade nnu inte verkstllts i slutet av 2016.
The level of committed appropriations for Title II (administrative expenditure) carried over was high at 2,5 million euros, i.e. 43,9 % (2015: 1 076 583 euros, i.e. 36,9 %).

EN C 434/126 Official Journal of the European Union 30.11.2018 THE OFFICEŐS REPLY EASO thanks the Court for the very useful report received. 
SV C 434/126 Europeiska unionens officiella tidning 30.11.2018 ST DKONTORETS SVAR Easo tackar revisionsrtten fr den mycket anvndbara rapporten som mottagits.
This report identifies a series of weaknesses, EASO is taking these extremely seriously and has started putting corrective measures in place. 
Easo ser mycket allvarligt p dessa och har brjat stta in korrigerande tgrder.
At the same time EASO is grateful that the Court recognises the extremely difficult situation the agency was under during the reference period, namely the unprecedented expansion of tasks that EASO needed to carry out to support Member States and contribute in the implementation of EU-level initiatives, including relocation and EU TR statement, the budget increase, the exponential increase in payments as well as the increase in procurement procedures (increase in number and complexity). 
Samtidigt r Easo tacksamt fr att revisionsrtten uppmrksammar den oerhrt svra situation som stdkontoret befann sig i under referensperioden, nmligen den aldrig tidigare skdade kningen av antalet uppgifter som Easo behvde utfra fr att stdja medlemsstaterna och bidra till att genomfra initiativ p EU-niv, dribland omflyttningarna och uttalandet frn EU och Turkiet, budgetkningen, den exponentiella kningen av betalningar samt kningen av upphandlingsfrfarandena (kning i antal och komplexitet).
On top of this, EASO needs to manage multi locations without many management positions being in place (heads of department, heads of unit and heads of sectors). 
Ovanp detta mste Easo frvalta flera platser dr det inte finns tillrckligt mnga ledande positioner (avdelningschefer, enhetschefer och sektorschefer).
In this reply, EASO will elaborate on some of the observations made by the Court, however the agency globally accepts the report and its findings. 
I detta svar kommer Easo att g nrmare in p ngra av revisionsrttens iakttagelser, men stdkontoret godknner totalt sett rapporten och slutsatserna i den.
3.20.6. and 3.20.13. 
3.20.6 och 3.20.13.
With regard to the systemic nature of non-compliance in EASO, the Agency Ń under new leadership Ń has started to take the necessary steps to ensure that compliance is front and centre in the culture and conduct of all its activities. 
Nr det gller vertrdelsernas systematiska karaktr inom Easo har stdkontoret Đ under det nya ledarskapet Đ brjat vidta de ndvndiga tgrderna fr att skerstlla att efterlevnad r prioriterat och centralt i kulturen fr och genomfrandet av all dess verksamhet.
This includes an objective, honest and frank internal control Ôself-assessmentŐ. 
Detta innefattar en objektiv, rlig och rttfram ÓsjlvbedmningÓ vid internkontroll.
EASO accepts that, in the past, governance and internal control structures, which fall within its responsibility, have not received the attention necessary to provide adequate assurance of legality and regularity. 
Easo medger att strukturer fr ledning och internkontroll, som ligger inom dess ansvar, tidigare inte har uppmrksammats s mycket som behvts fr att tillrckligt skerstlla lagligheten och korrektheten.
Again, under new leadership, building the structures and systems to ensure legality and regularity are systematised and assured (and that reporting is similarly accurate and comprehensive) is a top priority. 
Men ter igen, under det nya ledarskapet r det hgsta prioritet att bygga upp strukturerna och systemen fr att skerstlla att lagligheten och korrektheten systematiseras och skerstlls (och att rapporteringen p samma stt r korrekt och omfattande).
3.20.6., 3.20.8. and 3.20.12. 
3.20.6, 3.20.8 och 3.20.12.
The Court rightly highlights the deterioration and inadequacy of the HR situation in EASO, which also stands as a handicap to the proper functioning of the internal control system. 
Revisionsrtten betonar med rtta att personalsituationen inom Easo r frsmrad och otillrcklig, vilket ocks utgr ett hinder fr att internkontrollsystemet ska fungera ordentligt.
The current HR situation represents one of the greatest challenges the Agency is facing to overcome the weaknesses identified in ECAŐs observations, as those can be seen as largely symptomatic of the lack of resources to operate in a structured and regular fashion. 
Det aktuella personallget utgr en av stdkontorets strsta utmaningar fr att klara av de brister som faststlls i revisionsrttens iakttagelser, d dessa kan ses som kraftigt symtomatiska fr bristen p resurser fr att arbeta strukturerat och korrekt.
EASO is facing this challenge head on, and on the basis of a solid recruitment plan based on a needs assessment exercise is urgently recruiting to fill management positions and other key roles (operational and administrative). 
Easo bemter denna utmaning direkt, och hller just nu p att utifrn en stabil rekryteringsplan baserad p en behovsanalys rekrytera fr att tillstta ledningstjnster och andra viktiga befattningar (operativa och administrativa).
While it has to be acknowledged that the coefficient plays an important role here due to it being low in comparison with the rather high cost of living in Malta, EASO recognises that more needs to be done to improve staff satisfaction. 
Stdkontoret satsar ocks p personaltillfredsstllelse fr att lsa problemet med personalomsttning. ven om det ska ppekas att koefficienten spelar en viktig roll hr, eftersom den r lg i jmfrelse med den ganska hga levnadskostnaden i Malta, erknner Easo att mer behver gras fr att frbttra personaltillfredsstllelsen.
Some measures are already being implemented such as flexible ways of working, improved internal communication and the organisation of staff events. 
Vissa tgrder hller redan p att vidtas, ssom flexibla arbetsstt, frbttrad intern kommunikation och anordnande av personalevenemang.
3.20.9. and 3.20.19. 
3.20.9 och 3.20.19.
ECA correctly illustrates the challenges and speedy growth experienced by EASO in absolute numbers of financial transactions and procurement procedures. 
Revisionsrtten pvisar helt riktigt de utmaningar och den snabba tillvxt som Easo genomgr i absoluta tal nr det gller ekonomiska transaktioner och upphandlingsfrfaranden.
These numbers are stark in themselves, but in fact, do not adequately reflect the pressures in finance and procurement. 
Dessa siffror r anmrkningsvrda i sig, men terspeglar faktiskt nd inte tillrckligt pressen nr det gller ekonomi och upphandling.
These numbers do not take account of other associated facts and activities swelling the pressure on procurement, including the following two examples: Ń The use of Externally Remunerated Experts (Article 204 and 287 FR), which presents a substantial amount of work in the procurement sector. 
Siffrorna tar inte hnsyn till andra tillhrande fakta och verksamheter som kar pressen p upphandlingen, dribland exempel fljande tv exempel: Ń Anvndningen av betalda experter (artiklarna 204 och 287 i budgetfrordningen), som innebr en avsevrd mngd arbete i upphandlingssektorn.
This is set to grow in the coming years with the Agency relying on [Medical] Experts in support of Medical Country of Origin Information tasks. 
Denna frvntas ka under kommande r, d stdkontoret r beroende av (medicinska) experter som hjlp vid uppdrag gllande medicinsk information om ursprungsland.
Rural areas of Italy and Greece are not vibrant in terms of a competitive market for provision of services and products to EASO. 
Italiens och Greklands landsbygdsomrden utgr ingen srskilt konkurrenskraftig marknad nr det gller att tillhandahlla tjnster och produkter till Easo.
EASO is even an atypical customer, in terms of size, for economic operators in Malta, who largely do not have the capacity to meet the requirements of EASOŐs larger contracts. 
Easo r ocks sett till storlek en otypisk kund fr ekonomiska aktrer i Malta, som i hg grad saknar kapacitet att klara kraven fr Easos strre kontrakt.
3.20.10. to 3.20.12. and 3.20.19. 
3.20.10Đ3.20.12 och 3.20.19.
The ECA report importantly recognises the fact that EASO is one of few Ômulti-locationŐ Agencies. 
I revisionsrttens rapport tas betydelsefullt nog upp att Easo r en av f byrer som finns p flera platser.
This characteristic is fundamental in understanding the relatively high burden on administrative support as well as the highly complex environment for implementing functioning internal control structures. 
Denna egenskap r grundlggande fr att frst den relativt stora brdan p det administrativa stdet och ven den mycket komplicerade miljn fr att infra fungerande internkontrollstrukturer.
It should also be noted that EASO is unusually reliant on contractors as a result of its operational activities, geographical spread and (as correctly identified by ECA) the limitations on deployment of MS experts. 
Det br ocks noteras att Easo r ovanligt beroende av uppdragstagare till fljd av sin operativa verksamhet och geografiska spridning samt (vilket korrekt har konstaterats av revisionsrtten) begrnsningarna i utplaceringen av medlemsstaternas experter.
This is a multiplication factor on the tasks associated with procurement and finance (including decentralised financial actors), as Operational Bases in Greece, Italy and Cyprus, as well 
Detta r en multiplicerande faktor fr uppgifterna i samband med upphandling och ekonomi (dribland decentraliserade finansiella aktrer), d verksamhetsbaser i Grekland, Italien och Cypern plus mottagningscentrum i Grekland och Italien krver sina
EN 30.11.2018 Official Journal of the European Union C 434/127 as hotspots in Greece and Italy require their own cross section of contracts (lease agreements, cleaning, security, water, as well as critical contracts such as interim and interpretation services). Again, human resources will be key, and EASO (in recognition of the multiplication factor of being Ômulti-locationŐ) is currently assessing the possibility to allocate the resources necessary to provide adequacy, quality as well as assurance of legality and regularity to the full procurement and financial cycles and an assessment of decentralisation through a consultancy. 
SV 30.11.2018 Europeiska unionens officiella tidning C 434/127 egna tvrgende avtal (leasingavtal, stdning, skerhet, vatten samt viktiga kontrakt som bland annat rr tillflliga tjnster och tolkningstjnster). terigen r personalfrgorna nyckeln, och Easo bedmer just nu (vl medvetet om den multiplicerande faktorn som det innebr finnas p flera platser) mjligheten att tilldela de resurser som behvs fr att tillfra bde tillrcklighet, kvalitet och skerstllande av laglighet och korrekthet till de fullstndiga upphandlings-och finansieringscyklerna och en bedmning av decentraliseringen, genom ett konsultfretag.

The post of Senior Legal Officer will be published soon. 
Befattningen som hgre juridisk handlggare kommer snart att offentliggras.
In addition, it is accepted without reservation that legal support shall always be strictly in the interest of the Agency, and not individual persons (although not mutually exclusive). 
Det accepteras dessutom reservationslst att juridiskt std alltid strikt ska ligga i stdkontorets intresse, och inte enskilda personers (ven om det inte r msesidigt uteslutande).
EASO recognises that the engagement of external legal services have not been adequately controlled. 
Easo erknner att anvndningen av externa juridiska tjnster inte har kontrollerats tillrckligt.
As stated in the ECA report, internal inquiries continue into this matter and the results will be communicated to ECA. 
Som det str i revisionsrttens rapport fortstter de interna underskningarna i denna frga, och resultaten kommer att meddelas revisionsrtten.
3.20.17. and 3.20.26. 
3.20.17 och 3.20.26.
EASO accepts the comments. 
Easo godtar kommentarerna.
The referenced irregular contracts for interim services and travel agency services have been replaced by EASO during 2017. The rectification of this situation was initiated immediately after ECA identified their irregularity in their audit of 2016 (ECA report received in September 2017). 
De syftade oriktiga kontrakten fr tillflliga tjnster och resebyrtjnster har bytts ut av Easo under 2017. tgrdandet av denna situation pbrjades omedelbart efter att revisionsrtten faststllt deras oriktighet i sin revision av 2016 (rapport frn revisionsrtten mottagen i september 2017).
Unfortunately, based on the timelines, and the fact that EASO replaced the contracts as quickly as possible after they were found to be irregular, payments under the contract did indeed occur in 2017. 
Med tanke p tidslinjerna och det faktum att Easo bytte ut kontrakten s snabbt som mjligt efter att de befanns vara oriktiga, gjordes tyvrr betalningar enligt avtalet 2017.
3.20.18. and 3.20.19. 
3.20.18 och 3.20.19.
EASO accepts the comments, and reiterates that such problems can be seen as symptomatic of inadequate resources and lack of internal control and governance factors, all identified by ECA in the report. 
Easo godtar kommentarerna och upprepar att sdana problem kan ses som symtomatiska fr otillrckliga resurser och brist p intern kontroll och ledningsfaktorer, vilka alla konstateras av revisionsrtten i rapporten.
As referred to in the ECA report, an internal inquiry continues into the matter. 
Som nmns i revisionsrttens rapport fortstter en intern underskning i frgan.
Concerning the final point of the report (Art. 43) the agency has doubts based on the fact that EASO operates as agreed with DG BUDG during 2016. 
Nr det gller den sista punkten i rapporten (artikel 43) hyser stdkontoret tvivel med anledning av att Easo arbetar s som verenskommits med GD Budget under 2016.
The agency has gone back to DG BUDG on this issue to clarify the case once more and will not hesitate to react immediately should DG BUDG change their former communicated position. 
Stdkontoret har terkommit till GD Budget om den hr frgan fr att klarlgga fallet en gng till, och kommer inte att tveka att reagera omedelbart om GD Budget ndrar den stndpunkt man tidigare meddelat.
