Simplification of administration not achieved 66. 
Man har inte lyckats frenkla administrationen 66.
In order to help simplify administration, the 1998 reform replaced the annual allocation of production quotas to individual producers with the allocation of production quotas every three years to producer groups and to individual producers. 
Fr att administrationen skulle frenklas ersattes den rliga tilldelningen av produktionskvoter till enskilda producenter i 1998 rs reform av frdelning av produktionskvoter vart tredje r till producentsammanslutningar och enskilda producenter.
However, the introduction of a national quota reserve through annual deductions from the producersŐ quotas required annual modifications of the quotas and the issuing of up-to-date quota statements. 
Men inrttandet av en nationell kvotreserv genom rliga avdrag frn producenternas kvoter har gjort att man varje r mste ndra kvoterna och lmna aktuella kvotredogrelser.
As a result of its enquiries in Member States the Court found that in practice, national authorities had experienced an increase in their workload compared with the situation before the reform. 
Som ett resultat av sina underskningar i medlemsstaterna upptckte revisionsrtten att de nationella myndigheterna i praktiken hade ftt en kad arbetsbelastning jmfrt med hur det var fre reformen.
C 41/12 EN Official Journal of the European Union 17.2.2005 Inappropriate price agreements 67. 
C 41/12 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning 17.2.2005 Olmpliga prisavtal 67.
Article 81 of the EC Treaty sets out the principles for maintaining competition. 
I artikel 81 i EG-frdraget faststlls principerna fr att upprtthlla konkurrens.
In general it prohibits all agreements between undertakings and concerted practices which have as their object or effect, the prevention, restriction or distortion of competition within the common market. 
Rent allmnt r alla avtal mellan fretag och samordnade frfaranden som har till syfte eller resultat att hindra, begrnsa eller snedvrida konkurrensen inom den gemensamma marknaden frbjudna.
In September 2003 the Court of Justice confirmed that Ôthe maintenance of effective competition on the market for agricultural products is one of the objectives of the CAPŐ (17). 
I september 2003 faststllde domstolen att Óupprtthllandet av en effektiv konkurrens p marknaden fr jordbruksprodukter utgr en av mlsttningarna fr den gemensamma jordbrukspolitikenÓ (17).
Accordingly the market should ensure that the prices obtained by producers reflect normal competition. 
I enlighet med detta skall marknaden se till att de priser som producenterna fr speglar normal konkurrens.
In the principal producing Member States, the Court found documents which it considered to be inappropriateprice agreements between first processors and/or producer organisations. 
I de frmsta producerande medlemsstaterna fann revisionsrtten dokument som den ansg var olmpliga prisavtal mellan fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen och/eller producentsammanslutningar.
The agreements examined contained a price ceiling which is incompatible with the Treaty as it restricts competition. 
De avtal som granskades innehll ett pristak som inte r frenligt med frdraget eftersom det begrnsar konkurrensen.
For example, in Spain, in addition to price agreements, national authorities confirmed to the Court that, after the break-up of the State monopoly, first processors now operate contracts with producers which correspond to their production capacity. 
Till exempel i Spanien, utver olika prisavtal, bekrftade de nationella myndigheterna fr revisionsrtten att efter statsmo-nopolets upplsning ingr fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen numera kontrakt med producenter som motsvarar deras produktionskapacitet.
The Court concludes that contractual relations between producer groups and first processors are established according to processorsŐ production capacity rather than on the basis of price competition. 
Revisionsrtten drar slutsatsen att villkoren i kontrakten mellan producentsammanslutningar och fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen faststlls i enlighet med fretagens produktionskapacitet och inte p grundval av priskonkurrens.
In Italy, growers and first processors have traditionally been closely linked. 
I Italien har odlare och fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen av tradition varit nra sammankopplade.
The Court found that there was a global three-year price agreement between producer organisations and associations of first processors representing about 85 % of the raw tobacco production. 
Revisionsrtten upptckte att det fanns ett vergripande prisavtal p tre r mellan producentsammanslutningar och organisationer fr fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen, vilka motsvarar ungefr 85 % av rtobaksproduktionen.
These agreements fix prices without free competition between the parties involved. 
I dessa avtal faststlls priserna utan fri konkurrens mellan de berrda parterna.
In Greece, the national authorities, producersŐ organisations and first processorŐs associations informed both the Court and the Commission of the existence of collective agreements in relation to cultivation contract price conditions covering the entire industry. 
I Grekland informerade de nationella myndigheterna, producentsammanslutningar och organisationer fr fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen bde revisionsrtten och kommissionen om att det fanns kollektiva avtal som gllde prisvillkoren fr odlingskontrakt som omfattade hela industrin.
The above practices restrict or at worst eliminate price competition. 
De metoder som beskrivs ovan begrnsar eller undanrjer i vrsta fall priskonkurrensen.
The Court communicated its findings on such agreements to the Commission. 
Revisionsrtten har meddelat kommissionen sina resultat om sdana avtal.
The procedures to improve control were not effective 72. 
Frfarandena fr att frbttra kontrollen var inte ndamlsenliga 72.
The checks required of Member States are designed to ensure that the objectives of the CMO are attained and that expenditure is incurred in accordance with regulations. 
De kontroller som medlemsstaterna skall utfra syftar till att garantera att mlen fr den gemensamma organisationen av marknaden uppns och att utgifterna betalas i enlighet med bestmmelserna.
In order to address irregularities found previously by the Commission through the clearance of accounts procedures, in particular in Greece and Italy, the reform introduced new procedures in order (17) Case C-137/00. to tighten controls. 
Fr att komma till rtta med de oriktigheter som tidigare upptckts av kommissionen i samband med frfarandena fr godknnandet av rkenskaperna, srskilt i Grekland och Italien, infrdes det genom reformen nya frfaranden fr att skrpa (17) Ml C-137/00. kontrollerna.
Prior approval of first processing undertakings was introduced with the objective of ensuring that they were financially sound and were really engaged in first processing, thus excluding speculative transactions by intermediaries to the detriment of producers income. 
Frhandsgodknnande av fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen infrdes fr att se till att de var ekonomiskt sunda och verkligen utfrde den frsta bearbetningen.
Specific verification of areas declared by producers as being planted with tobacco by variety and crop was also introduced to ensure that claimants themselves had grown the tobacco for which aid was claimed. 
Srskilda kontroller per sort och grda av de arealer dr producenterna hade uppgett att de odlade tobak infrdes ocks fr att se till att de som begrde ersttning sjlva hade odlat den tobak som de begrde std fr.
Annex 5 provides a summary of the cases of non-compliance with the checks and controls required by regulations found by the Court during the audits carried out in the five Member States visited. 
I bilaga 5 finns en sammanfattning av de fall av sidosttande av freskrivna kontroller och underskningar som revisionsrtten upptckte vid granskningarna i de fem medlemsstater som besktes.
The main findings are set out below and cross-referenced to the columns in the annex: (a) The bodies responsible for controls were not always sufficiently independent to ensure reliable results. 
De frmsta resultaten beskrivs nedan och refererar till de olika kolumnerna i bilagan: a) De organ som ansvarar fr kontrollerna var inte alltid tillrckligt oberoende fr att kunna garantera tillfrlitliga resultat.
In Greece, until 2001, the national body responsible for advising tobacco producers had also been responsible for the control functions relating to producers and first processors required by the CMO. 
I Grekland var det nationella organ som ansvarade fr rdgivningen till tobaksproducenter fram till 2001 ven ansvarigt fr de kontrollfunktioner som gllde producenter och fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen i enlighet med den gemensamma organisationen av marknaden.
This led to a conflict of interest and insufficient independence for its role as the control body. 
Detta ledde till en intressekonflikt och till att organet inte kunde utfra sina kontroller i fullstndigt oberoende.
Although the problem had been identified by the Commission in 1994 it was only in 2002 that the risk was addressed and the control responsibility transferred to another body. 
Trots att kommissionen upptckte problemet 1994 tog man inte itu med det frrn 2002, d ansvaret fr kontrollen flyttades ver till ett annat organ.
In Italy those responsible for operating controls and checks continue to alternate this work with acting as advisors to producers (column 1). (b) Administrative cross-checks of parcels to prevent aid being paid twice for the same harvest were either not carried out or did not produce a reliable result (column 2). 
I Italien fortstter de som ansvarar fr att genomfra kontroller och underskningar att varva detta arbete med rdgivning till producenterna (kolumn 1). b) Det utfrdes inga administrativa dubbelkontroller av skiftena fr att frhindra att std betalas ut tv gnger fr samma skrd eller s gav de inga tillfrlitliga resultat (kolumn 2).
In addition compulsory checks of areas planted by individual growers were found not to have been carried in Greece (column 3.2) exposing the Community to the risk that production aid for tobacco could be claimed as well as area-based aid for other crops (false claims). 
Dessutom visade det sig att de obligatoriska kontrollerna av arealer som odlas av enskilda producenter inte hade utfrts i Grekland (kolumn 3.2), vilket utsatte gemenskapen fr risken att ett produktionsstd fr tobak och ett arealstd fr andra grdor skulle begras fr en och samma jordlott (falska fordringar).
Other cases were found in Greece and Italy (column 4) where, contrary to a Court of Justice ruling in 1997, on-the-spot controls oftobacco parcels were carried out after the tobacco had been harvested (18) thereby rendering them ineffective. 
Andra fall upptcktes i Grekland och Italien (kolumn 4) dr man i strid med en dom av domstolen 1997 fretog kontroller p plats av tobaksodlingar efter det att tobaken hade skrdats (18) vilket gjorde dem verkningslsa.
(18) The Court of Justice, in its ruling in Case C-46/97, Hellenic Republic v Commission of the European Communities, concluded that, in order to be considered as effective, on-the-spot checks of tobacco fields must be carried out at the time when the tobacco is still in the field. 
(18) Domstolen drog slutsatsen i sin dom i ml C-46/97, Republiken Grekland mot Europeiska gemenskapernas kommission, att om kontroller p plats av tobaksflten skall anses vara ndamlsenliga mste de utfras nr tobaken fortfarande finns p fltet.
Since the Greek authorities had executed the controls after the harvest, Greece had to accept a 2 % flat-rate reduction of the annual premium granted. 
Eftersom de grekiska myndigheterna fretog kontrollerna efter skrden mste Grekland godta en schablonmssig snkning med 2 % av det beviljade rs-bidraget.
17.2.2005 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 41/13 (c) Checks at first processors to ensure that tobacco is not released from supervision without being processed were either not executed at all, not executed in compliance with regulations or were not sufficiently documented (columns 7 and 8). 
17.2.2005 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning C 41/13 c) Kontroller vid fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen fr att garantera att tobaken inte undgr vervakning utan att frst ha bearbetats gjordes antingen inte alls eller inte i enlighet med bestmmelserna eller s dokumenterades de inte ordentligt (kolumnerna 7 och 8).
Therefore, there was inadequate assurance that aid was not paid on raw tobacco submitted more than once or on tobacco imported from third countries which does not qualify for aid. (d) Some producer organisations had not complied with recognition conditions which must precede qualification for specific aid, had used the aid for ineligible purposes or had failed to achieve additionality because the specific aid was used to finance existing administrative measures instead of new activities (columns 9, 10, 12 and 13). (e) There had been failures to comply with the prohibition of producer groups from carrying out first processing. 
Drfr hade man inte uppntt tillrcklig skerhet om att std inte betalades ut fr rtobak som deklarerats mer n en gng eller fr tobak som importerats frn tredjelnder och som inte berttigar till std. d) Vissa producentsammanslutningar uppfyllde inte de villkor fr erknnande som mste freg berttigande till srskilt std, anvnde stdet fr icke stdberttigande ndaml eller lyckades inte uppn additionalitet eftersom det srskilda stdet anvndes till att finansiera befintliga administrativa tgrder i stllet fr nya verksamheter (kolumnerna 9, 10, 12 och 13). e) Man lyckades inte alltid flja frbudet fr producentsammanslutningar att utfra den frsta bearbetningen.
This is a specific requirement of the Regulations introduced in 1993 to prevent distortion of competition and monitoring difficulties (column 11). (f) Premium and specific aid were granted in respect of cultivation contracts concluded after the regulatory deadline or which did not contain the information required for the tobacco to be eligible for aid (columns 14 and 15). 
Detta r ett srskilt krav i de frordningar som infrdes 1993 fr att frhindra att konkurrensen snedvrids och att vervakningen frsvras (kolumn 11). f) Bidrag och srskilt std beviljades fr odlingskontrakt som ingtts efter den faststllda tidsfristen eller som inte innehll de uppgifter som krvs fr att tobaken skall vara berttigad till std (kolumnerna 14 och 15).
The Court notes that until June 2004, the Commission had not finalised its work and imposed financial corrections where deemed necessary (Spain, Greece, Italy). MONITORING AND EVALUATION OF THE REFORMED CMO Monitoring Verification of controls by the Commission 75. 
Revisionsrtten konstaterar att i juni 2004 hade kommissionen nnu inte slutfrt sitt arbete och sett till att det gjordes finansiella korrigeringar dr det ansgs ndvndigt (Spanien, Grekland och Italien). VERVAKNING OCH UTVRDERING AV DEN REFORMERADE GEMENSAMMA ORGANISATIONEN AV MARKNADEN vervakning Kommissionens granskning av medlemsstaternas kontroller 75.
The Court examined the work undertaken on tobacco aid in the framework of the clearance of accounts procedure which requires the Commission to perform checks to verify whether Member States have correctly interpreted and applied the regulations relating to aid schemes (19). 
Revisionsrtten granskade det arbete som hade gjorts betrffande tobaksstd i samband med frfarandet fr granskningen och godknnandet av rkenskaperna enligt vilket kommissionen skall utfra kontroller fr att se om medlemsstaterna har tolkat och tillmpat de freskrifter som gller stdsystemen p ett korrekt stt (19).
The Audit Directorate of the Directorate-General for Agriculture made control visits for tobacco to four Member States following the 1998 reform which covered the key controls indicated in Annex 6. 
Direktoratet fr revision vid generaldirektoratet fr jordbruk avlade kontrollbesk avseende tobakssektorn i fyra medlemsstater efter 1998 rs reform, och vid detta besk gjordes de nyckelkontroller som anges i bilaga 6.
(19) Council Regulation (EC) No 1258/1999 (OJ L 160, 26.6.1999, p. 
(19) Rdets frordning (EG) nr 1258/1999 (EGT L 160, 26.6.1999, s.
The Court considers however that on the basis of the CommissionŐs guidelines regarding the calculation of financial consequences, when preparing the decisions regarding the clearance of accounts of the EAGGF Guarantee Fund, a number of other controls should have been considered and classified as Ôkey controlsŐ (see Annex 7). 
Revisionsrtten anser dock att p grundval av kommissionens riktlinjer fr hur man berknar de ekonomiska fljderna nr beslut skall fattas om godknnande och avslutande av rkenskaperna fr EUGFJ:s garantisektion borde man ha beaktat och klassificerat ett antal andra kontroller som ÓnyckelkontrollerÓ (se bilaga 7).
This is needed in order to verify the permitted levels for tobacco varieties and to calculate the weight of tobacco for which aid can be claimed. 
Detta behvs fr att man skall kunna kontrollera de tilltna niverna fr tobakssorter och fr att berkna vikten p den tobak fr vilken std kan skas.
The CourtŐs audit of the records in Greece showed that the moisture tests carried out in relation to the 1999 to 2001 harvests were not carried out in compliance with the provisions of the legislation and no weight adjustments were made. 
Vid revisionsrttens granskning av registren i Grekland visade det sig att de vattenkontroller som hade utfrts fr skrdarna 1999Đ2001 inte hade gjorts i enlighet med lagstiftningen, och det gjordes inte heller ngra justeringar av vikten.
Further enquiries made by the Court established that correct checks had not been carried out since 1993. 
Ytterligare utredningar som revisionsrtten gjorde visade att det inte hade utfrts korrekta kontroller sedan 1993.
This may explain why the CommissionŐs checks did not identify the problem. 
Detta kan frklara varfr problemet inte upptcktes vid kommissionens kontroller.
The Audit Directorate of the Directorate-General for Agriculture was informed through different sources of the failure but had decided not to apply financial corrections even though there was a systematic lack of compliance. 
Direktoratet fr revision vid generaldirektoratet fr jordbruk informerades via olika kllor om detta men hade beslutat att inte gra ngra finansiella korrigeringar trots att reglerna systematiskt hade sidosatts.
The level of correction would have been between 2 and 10 % (20), applicable to all aid claims in the period, had it been imposed. 
Korrigeringsnivn skulle ha legat p mellan 2 % och 10 % (20) och hade kunnat tillmpas p alla stdanskningar under den perioden om man hade freskrivit den.
As part of the1998 reform proposals, the Commission suggested dropping the requirement for the control on the grounds that it was imprecise and difficult. 
Inom ramen fr 1998 rs frslag till reformer freslog kommissionen att man skulle slopa kravet p kontroll eftersom det var otydligt och svrt.
The reforms finally adopted by the Council however, maintained and reinforced the requirement for this test. In 2000, the Commission expressed its intention to pursue corrections for non-compliance but only in respect of future failures. 
I de reformer som slutligen antogs av rdet behlls och skrptes dock detta krav. r 2000 uttryckte kommissionen sin avsikt att vidta korrigeringar vid fall av sidosttande av bestmmelserna, men enbart nr det gllde framtida frseelser.
The Court notes that, as EAGGF years from 1997 onwards remain open, corrective action for these years is still possible. 
Revisionsrtten konstaterar att eftersom EUGFJ fr ren 1997 och framt nnu inte har avslutats r det fortfarande mjligt att vidta korrigerande tgrder fr dessa r.
Inadequate review during the budgetary procedure 79. 
Otillrcklig vervakning under budgetfrfarandet 79.
The Financial Regulation requires that the annual budgetary procedure should ensure that the Ômobilisation of Community resources must be preceded by an evaluation to ensure that the resultant benefits are in proportion to the resources appliedŐ. 
Budgetfrordningen freskriver att det rliga budgetfrfarandet br garantera att Ófrigrande av gemenskapsmedel fregs av en vrdering som syftar till att trygga att de frdelar de frigjorda medlen kommer att leda till motsvarar beloppet av de antagna medlenÓ.
Examination of the budget submissions by the Commission for tobacco from 1999 to 2002 (21) revealed them to be repetitive and lacking in evaluative comment in relation to the above criteria. 
Vid granskningen av kommissionens budgetfrslag fr tobakssektorn mellan 1999 och 2002 (21) visade det sig att de var repetitiva och saknade en utvrdering som grundade sig p de kriterier som anges ovan.

C 41/14 EN Official Journal of the European Union 17.2.2005 Insufficient information was provided by Member States and by the Commission 81. 
C 41/14 SV Europeiska unionens officiella tidning 17.2.2005 Medlemsstaterna och kommissionen lmnade in ofullstndiga uppgifter 81.
In order to ensure efficient and effective monitoring of the market the Commission needs relevant, accurate, complete, timely, and unbiased information. 
Fr att kunna garantera en effektiv och ndamlsenlig vervakning av marknaden behver kommissionen relevanta, korrekta, fullstndiga och objektiva uppgifter i tid.
This is important, not only from their own point of view as managers, to ascertain whether modification of measures is required, but also where they are required to publish information to be used by interested parties. 
Detta r viktigt inte enbart fr att kommissionen i sin roll som frvaltare behver f reda p om tgrderna mste ndras, utan ocks fr att den skall kunna veta nr den r skyldig att offentliggra uppgifter som skall anvndas av berrda parter.
This was not achieved as explained below. 
Detta gjordes dock inte, vilket redovisas nedan.
The CMO regulations (22) require Member States to submit data on cultivated areas, numbers of contracts, quantities, growers and first processors and estimated and actual production to enable the Commission to monitor the tobacco market. Compliance was in general satisfactory. 
Enligt frordningarna fr den gemensamma organisationen av marknaden (22) skall medlemsstaterna lmna in uppgifter om de odlade arealerna, antalet kontrakt, kvantiteter, producenter och fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen och ven om berknad och faktisk produktion s att kommissionen kan vervaka tobaksmarknaden.
Member States are also required to submit information on cultivation contracts concerning prices, first processors, producers, quotas and the surfaces involved. 
Medlemsstaterna r ocks skyldiga att lmna in uppgifter om odlingskontrakten i frga om priser, fretag som utfr den frsta bearbetningen, producenter, kvoter och berrda arealer.
After harvest, additional data on tobacco deliveries, sales and stocks must also be provided. 
Efter skrden skall ven kompletterande uppgifter om leveranser, frsljning och lager av tobak lmnas in.
For the 1999 harvest only Germany, a small-scale producer, submitted the information on time. 
Nr det gller skrden 1999 var det enbart Tyskland Đ en liten producent Đ som lmnade in uppgifterna i tid.
In respect of the 2000 harvest, the information was supplied by all the Member States, except for Italy. 
Nr det gller skrden 2000 lmnade alla medlemsstater utom Italien in uppgifterna.
