At the end of 1998 the National Programmes for the Adoption of the Acquis (NPAA) for candidate countries of central and eastern Europe, did not provide a sufficiently reliable overview to ensure that all objectives were covered by national budgets, Phare programmes or other forms of assistance. 
I slutet av 1998 gav inte de nationella programmen fr antagande av regelverket (NPAA) fr kandidatlnderna i Central-och steuropa en tillrckligt tillfrlitlig versikt fr att kunna garantera att samtliga ml omfattades av nationella budgetar, Phare-program eller andra former av bistnd.
Candidate countries would have preferred a stronger link between the NPAA and annual country programmes and consider that the NPAA should now be developed more as a practical programming and monitoring tool.

PROJECT PREPARATION AND APPRAISAL 28. 
BEREDNING OCH UTVRDERING AV PROJEKT 28.
In the 1991 Annual Report (1) the Court identified significant weaknesses in project preparation, notably: (a) over-hastypreparationofprojectdocumentswithoutanyreal appraisal stage; (b) lack of clearly identified, quantified objectives; (c) lack of realism in the definition of objectives and implementation time scales, with insufficient analysis of risks and constraints. 
I rsrapporten fr budgetret 1991 (1) konstaterade revisionsrtten betydande svagheter i projektberedningsarbetet, srskilt a) alltfr hastig beredning av projektdokument utan ngot egentligt utvrderingsarbete, b) avsaknad av tydligt definierade och kvantifierade ml, c) orealistiskt definierade ml och tidtabeller fr genomfrande, med otillrcklig analys av risker och begrnsningar.
In order to improve its project management, including preparation, in 1992 the Commission adopted the Project Cycle Management (PCM) methodology (2) and guidelines on the format and contents of Financing Proposals and on the requirements to draw up a logical framework (3). The projects examined during the audit were mostly prepared using this methodology. 
Fr att frbttra sin projektfrvaltning, inklusive beredning, infrde kommissionen 1992 en srskild metodik fr frvaltning ver en projektcykel (PCM) (2) samt riktlinjer fr format och innehll i finansieringsfrslag och en lista ver de krav som stlls p en Ólogisk ramÓ (3).
Although there has generally been some improvement in the quality of project preparation and documentation, various weaknesses remain which are considered below. 
De projekt som undersktes vid granskningen hade i de flesta fall frberetts enligt denna metodik. ven om det till viss del har skett en allmn frbttring av beredning och dokumentation av projekt, kvarstr en del svagheter som behandlas nedan.
The usual procedure after a project has been initially identified is for a team of consultants to spend two or three weeks on the spot examining the project and preparing a project design. 
Det vanliga frfarandet nr ett projekt identifierats innebr att ett team konsulter tillbringar tv eller tre veckor p platsen med underskning av projektet och frberedelser av projektutformning.
The Financing Proposal (see paragraph 35) is drafted directly by the desk officer on the basis of these consultantsŐ reports (4) and in consultation with the technical units. 
Finansieringsfrslaget (se punkt 35) upprttas direkt av samordnaren utifrn dessa konsultrapporter (4) och i samrd med de tekniska enheterna.
In practice, in all regions, identification and appraisal are not dealt with as distinct stages of the project cycle. 
I praktiken behandlar inte ngra regioner projektets olika delar Đ identifiering och utvrdering Đ som skilda stadier i projektcykeln.
In the case of the EDF, the identification and preparation of projects are the responsibility of the ACP State with the assistance of the Delegate if requested, while the appraisal is to be done jointly by the ACP State and the Community (5). 
Nr det gller Europeiska utvecklingsfonden ansvarar AVS-landet fr identifiering och beredning av projekt med std av delegaten om s nskas, medan utvrderingen skall utfras av AVS-staten och gemenskapen tillsammans (5).
In practice, projects are usually prepared by Delegations with the cooperation and support of European individual experts made available to the ACP StatesŐ own institutions. 
I praktiken frbereds ofta projekten av delegationer med std och samarbete frn gemenskapens enskilda experter som grs tillgngliga fr AVS-lndernas egna institutioner.
These experts become increasingly involved in the process because of the workload of Delegations. 
Dessa experter blir i allt hgre grad inblandade i processen p grund av delegationernas arbetsbrda.
Their roles should be clearly defined to ensure transparency in respect of the execution of the tasks of the ACP StatesŐ authorities and the Delegations (which do not always have the same priorities). 
Deras roll mste definieras tydligt fr att skerstlla insyn betrffande genomfrande av uppgifter fr AVS-lndernas myndigheter och fr delegationerna (vilka inte alltid har samma prioriteringar).
For EDF expenditure a useful initiative was introduced in 1997 (6) in the form of a ÔQuality Support GroupŐ (7), which aims to improve the quality of the project/programme preparation and appraisal. 
Fr EUF-utgifter infrdes 1997 (6) ett praktiskt hjlpmedel i form av en ÓQuality Support GroupÓ (7) vars ml r att frbttra berednings-och utvrderingsfasen av projektet/programmet.
This group examines project preparation documents (8) for all projects/programmes and has had some success in improving their quality, although procedures for the following-up of the GroupŐs recommendations are weak. 
Gruppen undersker alla projekts beredningsdokument (8) och har haft viss framgng i arbetet med att frbttra deras kvalitet, trots att rutinerna fr uppfljning av gruppens rekommendationer r dligt utvecklade.
The rush to commit funds before the year-end means that a large number of projects are presented to the Member StatesŐ advisory committees in December. 
(9) Brdskan att gra taganden fr medel fre rets slut innebr att ett stort antal projekt lggs fram fr medlemsstaternas rdgivande kommitter i december.
For Phare the annual programming process takes over a year. 
Fr Phare tar den rliga programprocessen ver ett r.
This duration is unsuitable, particularly for projects following on from previous activities. 
Detta r olmpligt lng tid, srskilt fr projekt som r en vidareutveckling av tidigare verksamhet.
A programming cycle more closely related to the duration of projects, i.e. three to four years, would improve the quality of programming and project preparation at country level. 
En pro-gramcykel som r nrmare knuten till projektens varaktighet, dvs. tre till fyra r, skulle frbttra programkvaliteten och projektberedningen p landsniv.

The Financing Proposal is the internal Commission document which is presented to the Advisory Committee of Member State representatives, and on which the financing decision of the Commission is based. 
Finansieringsfrslaget r det interna kommissionsdokument som lggs fram fr den rdgivande kommittn bestende av medlemsstaternas representanter, och p vilket kommissionens finansieringsbeslut grundas.
The Financing Agreement (1) is the contract signed between the Commission and the authorities of the recipient country. 
Finansieringsverenskommelsen (1) r det kontrakt som skrivs mellan kommissionen och myndigheterna i mottagarlandet.
Financing Proposals 36. 
Finansieringsfrslag 36.
The introduction of PCM methodology (see paragraph 29) has resulted in some improvement in these documents. 
Infrandet av PCM-metodiken (se punkt 29) har inneburit en del frbttringar av dessa dokument.
The descriptive part of the Financing Proposals, giving the background to the project, and the project components or activities are generally adequate. 
Den beskrivande delen av finansieringsfrslagen, dr bakgrunden till projektet och dess bestndsdelar eller verksamheter presenteras, r i allmnhet tillfredsstllande.
The logical frameworks (2) annexed to the Financing Proposals are often not well prepared. 
Den logiska ram (2) som fljer med som en bilaga till finansieringsfrslagen r ofta illa frberedd.
The distinctions between the overall objective, project purpose, results and activities are often not clear and objectively verifiable indicators are frequently missing. 
Skillnaderna mellan det vergripande mlet, projektets syfte, resultat och verksamheter r ofta oklara, och objektivt mtbara resultatindikatorer saknas ofta.
The analysis of risks and constraints is often superficial. 
Analysen av risker och begrnsningar r ofta ytlig.
Logical frameworks are not always known to the recipient authorities. 
De mottagande myndigheterna knner inte alltid till den logiska ramen.
In some cases in Asia, project management was not given a copy of the original logical framework in the Financing Proposals, so that when they prepared a logical framework for the global work plan, they had to start from scratch (3). 
I ngra fall i Asien fick inte projektledningen ngon kopia av originalet till den logiska ramen i finansieringsfrslagen (3), utan de fick brja frn brjan nr en logisk ram fr den vergripande arbetsplanen skulle frberedas.
Other elements in the Financing Proposals need improvement; organisational matters, information on other donorsŐ activities, or on the results of relevant evaluations are often limited. 
Andra delar av finansieringsfrslaget behver frbttras: organisatoriska frgor, informationen om vriga givares verksamhet eller om resultat av relevanta utvrderingar r ofta begrnsad.
Timetables in all the regions are unrealistic. 
I alla regioner r tidtabellerna orealistiska.
For Asia, Latin America and the Mediterranean countries, the more analytical aspects of the preparation, notably the economic, environmental, and institutional justification, gender assessments and the chances for sustainability are often neglected, or treated only superficially. 
I lnder i Asien, Latinamerika och i Medelhavsomrdet behandlas de mer analytiska aspekterna av beredningen ytligt eller inte alls, speciellt den ekonomiska, miljmssiga och institutionella nyttan, jmstlldhets-aspekten och mjligheten till hllbarhet.
In the candidate countries of central and eastern Europe, when a proposed project was a continuation of an earlier project, the Financing Proposal did not always provide sufficient information regarding the previous project (4). 
I kandidatlnderna i Central-och steuropa innehll inte alltid finansieringsfrslaget tillfrlitlig information om tidigare projekt nr det freslagna projektet var en vidareutveckling av detta (4).
(1) Sometimes the final beneficiary is not a government authority but an NGO, for example. 
(1) Ibland r den slutliga mottagaren inte en offentlig myndighet utan t.ex. en icke-statlig organisation.
In this case the document may have a different name, but the basic principle, that there is one contractual document with similar contents to those of the Financing Proposal remains the same. 
D kan dokumentet ha ett annat namn men den grundlggande principen frblir densamma, nmligen att det finns ett kontraktsenligt dokument med liknande innehll som finansieringsfrslaget.
In Phare countries these Financing Agreements are known as 2 Financing Memoranda. () The logical framework is a tool which makes explicit the underlying logic of project design, i.e. how particular inputs should produce certain outputs which will help meet objectives which will contribute to wider goals. 
I Phare-lnder kallas sdana finansieringsver-2 enskommelser fr finansieringsplaner. () En logisk ram r ett arbetsverktyg som synliggr den underliggande logiken i ett projekts utformning, dvs. hur en viss input skall resultera i en viss output s att mlsttningar uppns som kan leda till hgre ml.
It also includes information on indicators of achievement, on sources of data and on assumptions and risks, related to the project. 
Det innehller ocks information om resultatindikatorer, uppgiftskllor och om antaganden och risker i anslutning till projektet.
The results are usually expressed in the form of a matrix with 3 four rows and four columns. () It was also found that, in some cases, Project Management Units did 4 not have copies of the consultantsŐ project preparation reports. () For example, a proposed project in the area of customs in Bulgaria did not mention the failure of two previous projects. 
Resultaten visas oftast i form av en matris med 4 rader och 4 kolum-3 ner. () Det uppdagades ocks att frvaltningsenheterna i ngra fall inte hade 4 kopior av konsulternas rapporter om projektberedningen. () Ett freslaget projekt p tullomrdet i Bulgarien nmnde t.ex. inte att tv tidigare projekt misslyckats.
Financing Agreements 39. 
Finansieringsverenskommelser 39.
As the legal contract between the Commission and the recipient countriesŐ authorities, it provides a binding framework for project managementŐs actions. 
Eftersom det r ett juridiskt avtal mellan kommissionen och myndigheterna i mottagarlnderna anger det bindande ramar fr vad projektledningen kan gra.
However, the following weaknesses were found in several cases: inadequate description of the counterpartŐs contribution to the project, confusion over the length of the project, inadequate description of what happens to assets at the end of the project, poorly structured budgets, and an inadequate description of responsibilities, in particular when there are several organisations involved. 
Fljande svaga punkter kunde dock konstateras i flera fall: ofullstndig beskrivning av motpartens bidrag till projektet, oklarheter betrffande projektets lngd, ofullstndig beskrivning av vad som sker med tillgngar efter projektets slut, dligt strukturerade budgetar och en ofullstndig ansvarsbeskrivning, srskilt nr flera organisationer r inblandade.
In addition, regular, independent financial audits were not always provided for. 
Dessutom ordnades inte alltid regelbundna, oberoende redovisningsrevisioner.
General project managers who had to work with the Financing Agreements were critical of them for failing to give them a sufficiently clear idea of the intentions of the Commission and of the recipient governmentŐs authorities. 
De frvaltare av allmnna projekt som hade att arbeta enligt finansieringsverenskommelser var kritiska till dem eftersom det inte framgick tillrckligt tydligt vilka intentioner kommissionen och mottagarlandets myndigheter hade.
The detailed planning required for successful project implementation could be included in another, more flexible, document. 
Den detaljplanering som krvs fr framgngsrikt genomfrande av ett projekt skulle kunna ing i ett annat, mer anpassningsbart, dokument.
Role of the Advisory Committees in the decision-making process 41. 
Den rdgivande kommittns roll i beslutsprocessen 41.
The various Council regulations governing external actions require the Member States, through Advisory Committees, to give opinions on Financing Proposals over a certain size (5) before the Commission takes a financing decision. 
De olika rdsfrordningar som reglerar externa tgrder anger att medlemsstaterna genom rdgivande kommitter skall yttra sig om finansieringsfrslag verstigande ett bestmt belopp (5) innan kommissionen fattar ett finansieringsbeslut.
The members of the relevant Advisory Committee receive a copy of the draft Financing Proposals before the proposal is to be discussed. 
Medlemmarna i den berrda rdgivande kommittn erhller en kopia av utkastet till finansieringsfrslag innan frslaget skall diskuteras.
They usually pass it on to their local representation in the country in question for comments. 
Vanligen skickar de det vidare till de lokala representanterna i landet i frga fr kommentarer.
However, this consultation at field level comes too late in the project preparation process for any substantive comments to be incorporated. 
Detta samrd p fltet kommer emellertid fr sent i beredningsprocessen fr att ngra mer omfattande kommentarer skall kunna tas med.
Member StatesŐ representatives submit written questions on the Financing Proposals before the meetings, but although Commission officials spend a lot of time preparing replies, they tend to concentrate on trying to reassure the representatives rather than resolve any weaknesses in project design. 
Medlemsstaternas representanter inkommer med skriftliga frgor om finansieringsfrslagen fre varje mte, men trots att kommissionens tjnstemn lgger ner mycket tid p att frbereda svar har dessa en tendens att inriktas p att frska lugna representanterna snarare n att frska lsa svagheter i projektens utformning.
Project start-up 42. 
Projektstart 42.
In the ACP countries the average time scale to prepare a project (defined as the period between elaborating the Project Identification Sheet and signing the Financing Agreement) is 14 months. In some cases the preparation took two years or more. 5 ( ) Over 2 million euro for ACP and the Mediterranean countries and over 1 million euro for ALA. 
I AVS-lnder r den genomsnittliga tiden fr att frbereda ett projekt fjorton mnader (definierat som perioden mellan 5 ( ) Mer n 2 miljoner euro fr AVS-lnderna och Medelhavsomrdet, och mer n 1 miljon euro fr ALA.
For Phare all annual Financing Agreements are adopted with each country after consultation with the Phare committee. 
Alla rliga finansieringsverenskommelser inom Phare-programmet sluts med varje land efter konsultation med Phare-kommittn.
C 57/10 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 22.2.2001 In the Asian, Latin American and Mediterranean countries the average delay between the initial project identification mission and the signing of the Financing Agreement was 21 months (1).

43. Even after the signature of the Financing Agreement, projects do not always start promptly. 
43. ven sedan finansieringsverenskommelsen undertecknats pbrjas inte alltid projekten omedelbart.
Delays are frequently experienced in the recruitment of technical assistance to manage the project (2). 
Det tar ofta tid att rekrytera tekniska assistenter fr att driva projekten (2).
Some are due to poor project preparation, which makes projects hard to implement. 
En del beror p dlig projektberedning, vilket gr projekten svra att genomfra.
Others relate to the slowness of the Commission procedures; the Commission has been slow even when it has joined other donors in supporting ongoing projects. 
Andra kan hnfras till kommissionens lngsamma handlggningsrutiner. Kommissionen har varit lngsam ven nr den gtt samman med andra givare och stttat redan pgende projekt.
In some cases the reason for the delay is outside the control of the Commission, e.g. when the counterpart authority in the recipient country goes back on previously agreed positions and seeks modifications. 
I ngra fall ligger orsaken till frseningen utanfr kommissionens kontroll, till exempel nr motsvarande myndighet i mottagarlandet backar frn tidigare verenskommelser och nskar frndringar.
Sometimes it indicates a lack of ÔownershipŐ of the project by the authorities, which may be the result of them being inadequately involved at the project preparation stage. 
Ibland kan detta vara ett tecken p myndigheternas bristande garansvar fr projekten, vilket kan vara ett resultat av att de inte varit tillrckligt involverade p projektberedningsstadiet.
The new Phare reorientations led to delays in project start-up: especially as the Commission had introduced the new orientations without preparing the corresponding procedures that would be needed As the CommissionŐs procedures were developed, this led to further modification of some projects, adding to the pressure on the timetable. 
Den frndrade inriktningen av de nya Phare-programmen ledde till frseningar av projektstarter, srskilt som kommissionen infrde de nya riktlinjerna utan att frbereda motsvarande ndvndiga frfaranden. Nr dessa utarbetades ledde detta till ytterligare frndringar av en del projekt, vilket bidrog till att tidtabellen blev mer anstrngd.
Swift project start-up is particularly important for a country undergoing rapid change, but 1998 projects, conceived in mid-1997 by the Estonian administration, could only begin in the second half of 1999. 
Det r srskilt viktigt att projekt kan komma igng snabbt i ett land som genomgr snabba frndringar men projekt fr 1998, som utarbetats i mitten av 1997 av de estniska myndigheterna, kunde inte inledas frrn under den senare delen av 1999.
