This resulted in ill-founded project budgets. 
Detta resulterade i dligt underbyggda projektbudgetar.
Some apparently larger scale projects in fact comprised many different small projects with many different objectives and several beneficiaries. 
Vissa synbarligen strre projekt bestod i sjlva verket av mnga olika sm projekt med mnga olika ml och flera olika stdmottagare.
The selection of beneficiaries and the cooperation between various beneficiaries was problematic. 
Urvalet av stdmottagare och samarbetet mellan olika stdmottagare var problematiskt.
During the implementation the beneficiaries often failed to meet their obligations to contribute in-kind (counterpart staff, office accommodation). 
Under genomfrandet uppfyllde stdmottagarna ofta inte kraven p naturabidrag (motpartspersonal, kontorsutrymmen).
A specific aspect illustrating the insufficient dialogue between the Commission and the Russian authorities is the impossibility of purchases free of VAT from domestic suppliers (see paragraphs 25 to 34); (c) the potential sustainability was not given sufficient consideration by the Commission when planning the projects, and further, when a project achieved its results, they were not effectively disseminated. 
En srskild aspekt som visar p den otillrckliga dialogen mellan kommissionen och de ryska myndigheterna r att det var omjligt att gra momsfria inkp frn inhemska leverantrer (se punkterna 25Đ34). c) Den potentiella hllbarheten togs inte tillrckligt i beaktande av kommissionen vid planeringen av projekten, och nr ett projekt uppndde sina resultat spreds inte heller dessa p ett ndamlsenligt stt.
Thus the replication of activities and learning from the results remained limited (see paragraph 52). 
Arbetsstten upprepades allts inte och man drog endast begrnsad lrdom av resultaten (se punkt 52).
Co-financing was practically not used to get more ownership (see paragraph 37); 
Medfinansiering anvndes praktiskt taget inte alls fr att ka egenansvaret (se punkt 37).
19.5.2006 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 119/11 (d) the assessment of the impact of the projects after the expiry of the projectsŐ activities was not part of the monitorsŐ duties and this was not compensated for by evaluations. 
19.5.2006 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning C 119/11 d) Bedmning av projektens effekt efter det att projektverksamheterna hade slutfrts ingick inte i vervakarens uppgifter och detta kompenserades inte genom utvrderingar.
The Commission could therefore not systematically learn from the implemented projects in order to develop more effective future interventions (see paragraphs 48 and 53). 
Kommissionen kunde drfr inte systematiskt dra lrdom av de genomfrda projekten fr att utveckla mer ndamlsenliga stdformer i framtiden (se punkterna 48 och 53).
Recommendations 56. 
Rekommendationer 56.
To facilitate improved effectiveness of the future assistance to the Russian Federation the Court makes the following recommendations. (a) The Commission should find ways to shorten the programming process and base all planning of external action programmes on a real dialogue between the Commission and the recipient leading to a real commitment of the latter. (b) Projects should only be financed where all the objectives are specific, measurable, realistic, timed and achievable, and are truly shared by the Commission and the recipient/beneficiary, and in which the steering committees, where appropriate, are made into an important management instrument through giving them the right powers and instituting membership at decision making level; and the investment components (if any) would be co-financed by the beneficiary; and realistic arrangements concerning VAT exemption and indirect in-kind co-financing are made. (c) The Court stresses the need for a stable organisation and for robust and rigorous action in line with the established rules and guidelines: the PCM including the logical framework should be applied whenever appropriate; the Commission should avoid putting small projects together in one larger-scale project with multiple objectives and different beneficiaries; the Commission should promptly react to shortcomings in project implementation; and the Commission should set benchmarks for the speed of its administrative procedures for approvals of and other reactions to the programming and contracting documents and reports. (d) In order to have better overview of the sustainability of the projects the Commission should appraise realistically the potential for sustainability during the planning phase of the projects; ensure the ex post assessment, or evaluation, of the completed projects in order to improve the future projects; and ensure that information on the projects results is made accessible to the public and actively look for the best practices achieved by its and other donorsŐ projects. 
Fr att underltta frbttringar av ndamlsenligheten i det fortsatta stdet till Ryska federationen ger revisionsrtten fljande rekommendationer: a) Kommissionen br finna ett stt att frkorta programplaneringsprocessen och basera all planering av externa tgrdsprogram p verklig dialog mellan kommissionen och stdmottagaren som leder till ett verkligt tagande frn den senare. b) Projekt br endast finansieras om fljande villkor r uppfyllda: Alla ml r specifika, mtbara, realistiska, tidsbe-stmda, uppneliga och verkligen gemensamma fr kommissionen och stdmottagaren; ledningskommitterna fr nr s behvs vara ett viktigt frvaltningsinstrument genom att de tilldelas rtt befogenheter och dess ledamter ges beslutan-dertt; investeringskomponenten (om det finns ngon) medfinansieras av stdmottagaren; realistiska arrangemang infrs nr det gller momsbefrielse och indirekt medfinansiering in natura. c) Revisionsrtten betonar att det finns behov av en stabil organisation och av att man ofelbart och strikt handlar i linje med de faststllda reglerna och riktlinjerna.

C 119/12 EN Official Journal of the European Union THE COMMISSIONŐS REPLIES SUMMARY I. The European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument, proposed by the Commission in September 2004, which will govern the future cooperation with Russia, is currently under consideration in the Council and the European Parliament. 
C 119/12 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning KOMMISSIONENS SVAR SAMMANFATTNING I. Europeiska grannskaps-och partnerskapsinstrumentet, som freslogs av kommissionen i september 2004 och kommer att reglera det framtida samarbetet med Ryssland, r fr nrvarande under vervgande i rdet och Europaparlamentet.
A Country Strategy Paper and a National Indicative Programme covering the period 2007 to 2010 will be put to Member States for consideration when appropriate. 
Ett landstrategidokument och ett nationellt vgledande program fr perioden 2007Đ2010 kommer vid lmpligt tillflle att lmnas till medlemsstaterna fr vervgande.
The Strategy will guide the European Commission in the implementation of financial cooperation at levels decided by the Council. 
Strategin kommer att vgleda Europeiska kommissionen vid genomfrandet av finansiellt samarbete p niver som bestms av rdet.
The financial funds for Russia have been on a decreasing trend. 
De ekonomiska medlen fr Ryssland har tenderat att minska.
Russia has achieved much economic progress in recent years and the capacity of the Russian authorities to finance reform measures itself has grown significantly at a time when the country has a budget surplus and is repaying its international debts. 
Ryssland har haft stor ekonomisk framgng de senaste ren och de ryska myndigheternas frmga att finansiera reformtgrder sjlva har kat avsevrt nu nr landet har ett budgetverskott och hller p att betala av sina internationella skulder.
The overall funding level, including also horizontal thematic budget headings, fell to EUR 150 million in 2005 and is expected to decrease further to around EUR 120 to 130 million in 2006. 
Den vergripande finansieringsnivn, inklusive horisontella tematiskt indelade budgetposter, sjnk r 2005 till 150 miljoner euro och frvntas minska ytterligare till ungefr 120Đ130 miljoner euro r 2006.
The Commission has itself recognised these weaknesses, which arose partly as a result of shortcomings in the project management, but also as a result of lack of involvement and ownership by the Russian beneficiaries. 
Kommissionen har sjlv medgivit dessa svagheter, som delvis hrrr frn brister i projektfrvaltningen, men som ocks r ett resultat av de ryska stdmottagarnas bristande engagemang och knsla av egenansvar.
Moreover, in some cases the impact of the projects was hampered by the diversity of interest within the Russian society, materialised in diverging interest between the various authorities. 
I vissa fall hmmades dessutom effekterna av projekten av mngfalden av intressen som finns inom det ryska samhllet, vilket tar sig uttryck i olika myndigheters motstridiga intressen.
A majority of the projects achieved their objectives fully or partially, and despite the low effectiveness of some of the projects the Commission believes that its programmes of assistance have helped to broaden the general level of cooperation between the EU and the Russian Government. 
Flertalet projekt uppndde sina ml till fullo eller delvis, och trots den lga effektiviteten i en del av projekten tror kommissionen att bistndsprogrammen har bidragit till att bredda den allmnna graden av samarbete mellan EU och den ryska regeringen.
Nevertheless, the Commission will draw the lessons of experience, and of the new economic situation prevailing in Russia, when preparing its new country strategy. 
Kommissionen kommer icke desto mindre att dra lrdomar av erfarenheterna och av den nya ekonomiska situation som rder i Ryssland nr man utarbetar den nya landsstrategin.
V. A constructive political environment is vital for the successful implementation of financial cooperation. 
V. En konstruktiv politisk milj r livsndvndig fr att man framgngsrikt skall kunna genomfra ett ekonomiskt samarbete.
In the context of assistance to Russia, an occasional lack of such an environment has from time to time had a negative impact on programming and implementation. 
Under den tiden bistnd gtt till Ryssland har det ibland saknats en sdan milj, vilket emellant haft negativa terverkningar p programplanering och genomfrande.
Moreover, the programming was affected by the financial crisis in Russia at the end of the 1990s, when general disintegration made dialogue difficult, thereby diminishing local ownership. 
Dessutom pverkades programplaneringen av den finansiella krisen i Ryssland i slutet av 1990-talet, nr en allmn desintegration frsvrade dialogen och drigenom minskade det lokala egenansvaret.
The Commission has already addressed the weaknesses in the management of the past programmes by introducing the Reform of External Assistance (the RELEX reform), notably by means of the devolution of EC external aid management to the Commission Delegations. 
Kommissionen har redan tagit itu med svagheterna i handhavandet av tidigare program genom att reformera det externa bistndet (Relexreformen), frmst genom att decentralisera frvaltningen av gemenskapens externa bistnd till kommissionens delegationer.
Since the design of these projects in 1997 to 2000, significant improvements have been introduced, including the development of clear and measurable objectives for actions envisaged. 
Sedan dessa projekt utformades 1997Đ2000 har stora frbttringar gjorts, bland annat har tydliga och mtbara ml satts upp fr de planerade insatserna.
The CourtŐs observations also relate to the difficult environment in Russia at the time. 
Revisionsrttens synpunkter avser ocks det svra politiska klimatet i Ryssland vid den tidpunkten.
The 2005 Monitoring Report of Tacis projects revealed a significant increase in quality of projects in terms of relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability. 
Det framgick av 2005 rs vervakningsrapport om Tacisprojekt att det skett en avsevrd kvalitetskning i projekten i frga om relevans, effektivitet, effekter och hllbarhet.
Moreover, the Commission systematically carries out sector and country-wide evaluations. Whilst sharing the CourtŐs analysis that larger-scale projects should not be sought by pooling together a variety of small projects with multiple objectives and many different beneficiaries, the Commission still intends to move towards larger-scale projects in the TACIS region as a whole. 
Vidare utfr kommissionen systematiskt utvrderingar av sektorer och hela lnder. ven om kommissionen delar revisionsrttens analys att storskaliga projekt inte borde efterstrvas genom att man fr samman en massa sm projekt med vitt skilda ml och med mnga olika stdmottagare avser kommissionen fortfarande att arbeta fr fler storskaliga projekt i Tacisregionen som helhet.
The Commission also intends examining the feasibility of new implementing tools to improve the cooperation programme with Russia when the TACIS Regulation expires and a new instrument will be introduced. 
Kommissionen tnker ocks underska mjliga nya genomfrandeverktyg fr att frbttra samarbetsprogrammet med Ryssland nr Tacisfrordningen upphr att glla och ett nytt instrument skall infrs.
Through building on the Common Space political dialogue with Russia the aim is to maximise ownership by the partner country. 19.5.2006 
Genom att bygga vidare p den politiska dialogen med Ryssland om de gemensamma omrdena syftar man till att maximera partnerlandets knsla av egenansvar. 19.5.2006
19.5.2006 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 119/13 VII. (first indent) The Commission intends to base future cooperation on the Common Spaces agreed between Russia and the European Union, and will support initiatives emanating from the roadmaps; financial cooperation will seek to meet policy objectives already agreed between the two sides. 
19.5.2006 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning C 119/13 VII. (frsta strecksatsen) Kommissionen avser att basera framtida samarbete inom de gemensamma omrden som Ryssland och Europeiska unionen enats om, och kommissionen kommer att stdja initiativ som bygger p vg-kartorna; i det finansiella samarbetet kommer man att frska uppn de politiska ml som de bda sidorna redan enats om.
However, despite a generally improved political environment following agreement on the joint Common Spaces policy in recent years, engaging the large Russian bureaucracy in sustained dialogue over the strategy for future financial cooperation is not straightforward. 
Trots ett generellt frbttrat politiskt klimat ren efter verenskommelsen om politiken gllande de gemensamma omrdena r det dock inte helt ltt att f med sig den stora ryska byrkratin i en konsekvent dialog kring en strategi fr det framtida finansiella samarbetet.
Furthermore, the Russian authorities remain hesitant about the form of the future cooperation. Therefore there will be even more emphasis in the future on funding actions on which both sides agree. 
Dessutom r de ryska myndigheterna fortfarande vacklande nr det gller formerna fr det framtida samarbetet. nnu mera vikt kommer drfr i framtiden att lggas p finansieringsinsatser som bda sidor r ense om.
The Commission will be prepared to use financial cooperation to drive forward the EU-Russia policy agenda. (second indent) The Commission made PCM and use of logical framework obligatory as of 2001. 
Kommissionen kommer att vara beredd p att anvnda ekonomiskt samarbete fr att driva den politiska EU/Ryssland-agendan framt. (andra strecksatsen) Kommissionen har frn och med 2001 gjort projektcykelfrvaltningen och de logiska ramarna obligatoriska.
Amongst others the External Assistance Reform has also strengthened the quality of the projects, i.e. by introducing systematic review of projects/programmes at identification and formulation stages by Quality Support Groups, as well as by systematic use of result-oriented monitoring. 
Bland annat har ocks reformen av det externa bistndet hjt kvaliteten p projekten, nmligen genom att man infrt systematisk granskning av projekt/program i identifierings-och formulerings-stadierna genom kvalitetsstdgrupper, liksom genom att man systematiskt anvnder sig av resultatorienterad vervakning.
On project level also systematic use of logical framework with objectively verifiable indicators is put in place. (third indent) The Commission systematically carries out sector or countrywide evaluations. 
P projektniv infr man ocks systematiskt logiska ramar med objektivt kontrollerbara indikatorer. (tredje strecksatsen) Kommissionen gr systematiskt utvrderingar av sektorer eller hela lnder.
It will consider increasing the number of project-based evaluations. 
Kommissionen vervger att ka antalet projektbaserade utvrderingar.
There is already a database of results-oriented monitoring of ongoing projects, used as a management tool by the Commission, which allows learning from good the beneficiary country. 
En databas finns redan fr resultatorienterad vervakning av pgende projekt, som kommissionen anvnder som ett frvaltningsverktyg, vilket gr det mjligt att dra lrdomar av goda och dliga arbetsstt.
The European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument, proposed by the Commission in September 2004, which will govern the future cooperation with Russia, is currently under consideration in the Council and the European Parliament. 
Europeiska grannskaps-och partnerskapsinstrumentet, som freslogs av kommissionen i september 2004 och kommer att reglera det framtida samarbetet med Ryssland, r fr nrvarande under vervgande i rdet och Europaparlamentet.
A Country Strategy Paper and National Indicative Programme 2007 to 2010 will be put to Member States for consideration when appropriate. 
Ett landstrategidokument och ett nationellt vgledande program 2007Đ2010 kommer vid lmpligt tillflle att lmnas till medlemsstaterna fr vervgande.
Financial cooperation with Russia has been on a decreasing trend, as continued high commodity prices have substantially improved RussiaŐs financial position. 
Det ekonomiska samarbetet med Ryssland har tenderat att minska, eftersom fortsatt hga rvarupriser avsevrt har frbttrat Rysslands finansiella stllning.
The overall funding level fell to EUR 150 million in 2005 and is expected to decrease further to around EUR 120-130 million in 2006. 
Den vergripande finansieringsnivn sjnk till 150 miljoner euro r 2005 och frvntas minska ytterligare till omkring 120Đ130 miljoner euro r 2006.
EU policy towards Russia is now expressed by the four Common Spaces (Common Economic Space, Common Spaces of Justice, Liberty and Security, Common Space of External Security, Common Space of Research and Education, including Culture) Ń with detailed policy commitments set out in the accompanying roadmaps (agreed in May 2005). 
EU:s politik gentemot Ryssland kommer nu till uttryck genom de fyra gemensamma omrdena (gemensamt ekonomiskt omrde, gemensamma omrden fr rttvisa, frihet och skerhet, gemensamt omrde fr extern skerhet, gemensamt omrde fr forskning och utbildning, inklusive kultur) Đ med detaljerade taganden som faststllts i den tfljande vgkartan (som man enades om i maj 2005).
The projects examined do not reflect the improvements in project design procedures introduced since the reform of the EC external assistance, which has taken place over the 2002 to 2005 period, in particular the devolution of responsibilities to and bad practices. Results are also shared in general with Delegations. 
De projekt som underskts avspeglar inte frbttringarna av projektutformningsrutinerna som infrts i och med reformen av EG:s externa bistnd, som gde rum mellan 2002 och 2005, i all synnerhet decentraliseringen av ansvarsomrden ut till delegationerna.
This has and will continue to improve the implementation and monitoring of bilateral projects on the ground. 
Detta har och kommer fortsatt att frbttra genomfrandet och vervakningen av bilaterala projekt ute p fltet.
The Commission recognises certain weaknesses in project implementation at that time. 
Kommissionen medger vissa svagheter i projektgenomfrandet vid den tidpunkten.
They have been addressed through the Reform of External Assistance. 
Dessa har tgrdats genom reformen av det externa bistndet.
Box 1 Ń See reply to paragraph 18. 
Ruta 1 Đ Se svar p punkt 18.
A distinction should be made between the two types of consultations: internal consultations within the Commission take into account the need to consult, in the case of an important partner such as Russia, most if not all DGs and services. 
Man br srskilja mellan de tv olika typerna av samrd: vid interna samrd inom kommissionen beaktas behovet, nr det gller en viktig partner som t.ex. Ryssland, att konsultera de flesta, om inte alla, generaldirektorat och tjnsteavdelningar.
The consultation procedure with Member States takes time, but this is a regulatory obligation. 
Samrdsfrfarandet med medlemsstaterna tar tid, men r en lagstadgad skyldighet.
External consultations with the Russian side are important to ensure dialogue and a real sense of ownership. 
Externa konsultationer med den ryska sidan r viktiga fr att skra dialogen och en verklig knsla av egenansvar.
In some cases the Russian authorities have subsequently delayed the signature of Action Programmes, therefore delaying the implementation of the projects themselves. 
I vissa fall har de ryska myndigheterna eftert frsenat underskri-vandet av handlingsprogram och drigenom frsenat genomfrandet av sjlva projekten.
The Reform of External Assistance (the RELEX reform), notably by means of the devolution of EC external aid management to the Commission Delegations, aims at ensuring a greater involvement of the partner country from the preparatory phase to the final implementation, and it also strengthens the Commission involvement in donor coordination on the spot. 
Reformen av det externa bistndet (Relexreformen), frmst genom decentraliseringen av frvaltningen av gemenskapens externa bistnd till kommissionens delegationer, syftar till att ka engagemanget frn partnerlandets sida alltifrn frberedelsefasen till det slutliga genomfrandet, och den kar ocks kommissionens samordning av givarnas insatser p platsen.
C 119/14 EN Official Journal of the European Union 19.5.2006 Attempts have been made, by the Delegation in particular but also by RELEX Headquarters during a recent programming mission (October 2005), to engage the Russian Government in dialogue over the future strategy, which is firmly based on the Common Spaces, and at least the Commission has formal Russian agreement to these (since May 2005). 
C 119/14 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning 19.5.2006 Srskilt delegationen, men ocks Relex huvudkontor, har under det nyligen gjorda programplaneringsbesket (oktober 2005) frskt att f med den ryska regeringen i en dialog om en framtida strategi, som r fast frankrad i de gemensamma omrdena, och kommissionen har tminstone formellt ftt ett ryskt ja till dessa (sedan maj 2005).
The dialogue has improved with the Russian authorities since devolution. 
Dialogen med de ryska myndigheterna har frbttrats efter decentraliseringen.
Regular dialogue is maintained with the National Coordination Unit (NCU). 
En regelbunden dialog upprtthlls med den nationella samordningsenheten.
However, contacts could be developed further; they are currently limited by the lack of its prioritisation by the Russian authorities illustrated by only up to four people working on the Tacis programme in the NCU. 
Kontakterna kan dock utvecklas ytterligare. De r fr nrvarande begrnsade eftersom de inte prioriteras av de ryska myndigheterna, vilket illustreras av att det bara r hgst fyra personer som arbetar med Tacisprogrammet i den nationella samordningsenheten.
