In one case (2), which was awarded 288 200 euro, a recovery procedure was only instigated nearly two years after the project failed to submit a final report; (b) the project ex ante evaluations did not always explain the reason for the grant rate awarded, as in the case of one project (3) for improving coordination and exchange of experience, which received a one million euro grant representing 100 % of total project costs; (c) in six of the 13 cases examined, the project promoters were given a period of six months after the contract expiry date, to finalise expenditure and a full year to submit to the Commission their final report and claim. 
Fr ett projekt (2), som beviljades 288 200 euro, inleddes inget frfarande fr terindrivning frrn nstan 2 r efter det att en slutrapport fr projektet borde ha lagts fram. b) Frhandsbedmningarna av projekten gav inte alltid ngon frklaring till varfr en viss bidragsniv hade beviljats, vilket var fallet med ett projekt (3) fr att frbttra samordning och erfarenhetsutbyte, som erhll ett bidrag p en miljon euro motsvarande 100 % av de totala projektkostnaderna. c) I 6 av de 13 granskade fallen fick projektledarna ett halvr p sig efter det att kontraktet lpt ut fr att avsluta utgifterna och ett helt r fr att lgga fram sin slutrapport och anskan om slutbetalning fr kommissionen.
This additional delay period made more difficult the CommissionŐs evaluation and utilisation of results within a reasonable period after the actual completion of projects. 
Denna ytterligare frsening gjorde det svrare fr kommissionen att utvrdera och dra nytta av resultaten inom en rimlig tid efter det att projektet faktiskt avslutats.
Furthermore, only 34 of the 201 Article 6 projects approved were audited by the Commission in the period 1994 to 2001, thus reducing the probability of detecting ineligible or irregular expenditure in this high risk area of direct contracts. 
Vidare blev endast 34 av de 201 godknda artikel 6Đprojekten granskade av kommissionen under perioden 1994Đ2001, vilket reducerade sannolikheten att upptcka icke stdberttigande eller oegentliga utgifter i samband med direkta kontrakt, som utgr ett hgriskomrde.
The analysis by the Court of a sample of audit reports showed that the Commission auditors had found in the great majority of cases, serious weaknesses and important errors, requiring many recovery actions of funds unduly paid. 
Revisionsrttens analys av ett urval av granskningsrapporter visade att kommissionens revisorer i de flesta fallen hade funnit allvarliga svagheter och betydande fel, vilket innebar att man i mnga fall mste vidta tgrder fr att terkrva felaktigt utbetalda medel.
In the light of these results, a more active control strategy would have been justified in this area.

This pilot measure, which commenced on 1 January 2000, had as its objective the support of local actors in creating local employment plans based on the Employment Guidelines.

The Court selected and examined 13 projects approved in 1996 and 1997 and completed in 1999 and 2000, in order to establish how they had been managed and what contribution they had made to the development of new and innovative approaches. 
Revisionsrtten valde ut och granskade 13 projekt som godknts 1996Đ1997 och slutfrts 1999Đ2000, fr att faststlla hur de hade frvaltats och vad de hade tillfrt till utvecklingen av nya och innovativa metoder.

In fact, despite the introduction of this new measure, overall funding for innovative actions actually decreased in the period 1998 to 2001 (1). 
Trots infrandet av denna nya tgrd minskade den samlade finansieringen av innovativa tgrder mellan 1998 och 2001 (1).
Table 3 Budget line B5-5 0 3: Preparatory actions for a local commitment for employment (b) 17 grant agreements for the projects (amounting to 2,6 million euro or 46 % of total commitments) were only approved by the Commission on 30 December 2000, for actions starting on the same date and ending on 30 September 2001.

As these agreements were only signed by the beneficiaries in January 2001, the expenditure should have been charged to the 2001 budget. 
Eftersom stdmottagarna inte undertecknade dessa avtal frrn i januari 2001 borde utgifterna ha belastat budgeten fr 2001.
Furthermore, agreements were approved by the Commission for the co-financing of conferences after the conferences had been held (3). 
Kommissionen godknde dessutom avtal om samfinansiering av konferenser efter det att konferenserna hade gt rum (3).
Despite the above weaknesses and the fact that this is an innovative area, which inherently attracts higher than normal risk, no preparatory projects were audited by the Commission in either 2000 or 2001. 
Trots ovanstende svagheter och det faktum att detta r ett innovativt omrde vilket av naturliga skl innebr en hgre risk, granskade inte kommissionen ngra projekt inom frberedande tgrder varken r 2000 eller r 2001.
OBSTACLES TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOCAL ACTIONS 53. 
HINDER F R UTVECKLINGEN AV LOKALA TGRDER 53.
The Court examined the implementation of various local employment actions in Member States including territorial employment pacts, organisations receiving global grants and the role of the voluntary and private sectors in promoting local employment in order to assess the obstacles to achieving efficient and effective results in this area. 
Revisionsrtten granskade genomfrandet av olika lokala sysselsttningstgrder i medlemsstaterna, fr att bedma hindren fr att man skall uppn effektiva och ndamlsenliga resultat inom detta omrde. Denna granskning omfattade territoriella sysselstt-ningspakter, organisationer som erhller globalt std och den frivilliga och den privata sektorns uppgifter i samband med frmjandet av lokal sysselsttning.
Lack of follow-up support for territorial employment pacts 54. 
Brist p std fr uppfljning av territoriella sysselsttningspakter 54.
The Court visited three territorial employment pacts (4), whose goal was to coordinate local employment activities and spread good practice through the Ôlocal needs-basedŐ approach to employment development. 
Revisionsrtten gjorde en granskning p platsen av tre territoriella sysselsttningspakter (4) vars ml var att samordna lokal sysselsttningsfrmjande verksamhet och sprida bsta metoder genom att sysselsttningsutvecklingen lggs upp med tanke p lokala behov.

The low budgetary execution in 2000 was partly due to the fact that all funds had to be committed and spent before the end of 2001. 
Det lga budgetgenomfrandet 2000 berodde delvis p att man var tvungen att gra taganden fr och utbetala samtliga medel fre utgngen av 2001.
Hence, the maximum duration of projects was limited to nine months, with a deadline for presentation of applications of only seven weeks. 
Drmed begrnsades projektens varaktighet till hgst nio mnader, med en tidsfrist p endast sju veckor fr att lmna in anskningar.
This restriction discouraged many potential applicants particularly in the social economy area. Furthermore, few of the proposals in 2000 requested the maximum amount of co-financing available. 
Denna begrnsning fick mnga potentiella skande att avst, srskilt inom omrdet social ekonomi. Dessutom begrde man i f av frslagen under 2000 det hgsta tillgngliga beloppet fr samfinansiering.
The following weaknesses were found in the operational management of the measure: (a) many projects overlapped thematically with the existing Article 6 innovative actions and the pilot projects funded in the framework of the ÔThird SystemŐ and the ÔEmployment MarketŐ (2). (a) (b) (3) 4 ( ) there was no common overall strategy document to which all pact partners were signatories; the pact board of senior partner representatives never con-vened, but was replaced by a management team consisting of only local authority representatives and the pact coordinator, which reduced the local representativity of the project; For example, in the case of Glasgow City Council, the grant agreement was signed two months after the conference.

C 263/34 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 29.10.2002 (c) the TEP failed to establish a link with operational programmes and accordingly was unable to obtain project-funding from such programmes, after having used its initial funding to carry out preliminary studies. 
C 263/34 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning 29.10.2002 c) De territoriella sysselsttningspakterna var inte kopplade till de operativa programmen och kunde drmed inte, efter att ha anvnt sin ursprungliga finansiering fr att gra frstudier, erhlla projektfinansiering frn sdana program.
As a result the optimum benefit was not obtained from these studies. 
Detta ledde till att man inte drog bsta mjliga nytta av dessa studier.
Furthermore, the target of creating 30 000 jobs, which was approved by the Commission, proved unrealistic, which was unsurprising considering the nature of the pact and the limited funds provided (200 000 euro). the use of global grants was postponed, and in Finland, national legislation prohibited the State bodies from delegating their financial management functions to non-governmental organisations. 
Mlet att 30 000 arbetstillfllen skulle skapas, som godknts av kommissionen, visade sig dessutom vara orealistiskt, vilket inte var frvnande med tanke p paktens karaktr och de begrnsade resurser som tillhandahllits (200 000 euro). globalt std upp, och i Finland var statliga organ enligt nationell lagstiftning frhindrade att delegera sin finansiella frvaltnings-uppgift till icke-statliga organisationer.
Obstacles to the participation of the voluntary sector in ESF programmes 59. 
Hinder fr den frivilliga sektorns medverkan i ESF-program 59.
The ÔThird SystemŐ, which refers to the economic activity of cooperatives, mutual bodies and associations, is an approach to local economic development which brings together diverse strands of development in local communities. 
Den Ótredje sektornÓ, som avser ekonomisk verksamhet inom kooperativ, msesidiga organ och freningar, innebr ett frhllningsstt till lokal ekonomisk utveckling dr olika omrden av utveckling i de lokala samhllena sammanfrs.
The potential added value of these actions derives from their ability to combine economic and social purpose, through matching local needs with local resources. 
Det potentiella mervrdet av tgrder p detta omrde kommer frn frmgan att inom tgrderna kombinera ekonomiska och sociala syften genom att bringa verensstmmelse mellan lokala behov och lokala resurser.
There were a number of obstacles to the participation of voluntary organisations in this sector. 
Det fanns flera hinder fr frivilligorganisationers medverkan inom denna sektor.
Firstly, unpaid volunteer time by individuals in such organisations makes an important contribution to ESF projects (4). 
Fr det frsta utgr oavlnade frivillig-insatser frn enskilda i sdana organisationer ett viktigt bidrag till ESF-projekt (4).
However, in cases where the pro-grammemeasureforeseesonlypublicandESFfunding,itwould reduce the public contribution to the programme, reducing thereby the rate of matching funding. 
I fall dr programtgrden frutser endast statlig finansiering och ESF-finansiering skulle detta emellertid reducera det offentliga bidraget till programmet och drmed reducera den motsvarande finansieringen.
This is so, even though volunteer organisations are often non-profit-making bodies funded from public and charity sources. 
S r fallet ven om frivilligorganisationer ofta r icke vinstdrivande organ som finansieras av statliga medel och vlgrenhetsmedel.
Secondly, while the voluntary and community sector (5) need advance payments to be able to fulfil their functions, this was not always possible (6), because national rules prohibit the payment of advances to final recipients. 
Fr det andra behver den frivilliga sektorn och samhlls-sektorn (5) frskottsbetalningar fr att kunna fullgra sina uppgifter, men detta var inte alltid mjligt (6) eftersom nationella bestmmelser innehller frbud mot frskottsutbetalning till slutliga stdmottagare.
This restriction, along with these organisationsŐ own lack of resources, meant that in the case of Spain no activity took place in 2000 and part of 2001. 
I kombination med organisationernas egna resursbrist innebar denna begrnsning att det i Spaniens fall inte skedde ngon verksamhet under 2000 och en del av 2001.
(4) Yorkshire and the Humber Objective 1, 2 and 3 SPDs, United King-5 dom and Spain Objective 3 OP. () For example, with the Objective 2, 2000 to 2006 draft plan, Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom, the Commission advised that such a financial mechanism was needed to enable the sectors to fulfil their functions. 
(4) Samlade programdokument fr ml 1, 2 och 3, Yorkshire och Hum-5 ber i Frenade kungariket, och Spaniens operativa program fr ml 3. () Exempelvis ansg kommissionen nr det gller den freslagna planen fr ml 2 fr perioden 2000Đ2006 fr Yorkshire och Humber, Frenade kungariket, att en sdan finansiell mekanism var ndvndig fr att man inom dessa sektorer skulle kunna fullflja sina uppgifter.
The Commission Interpretation of Article 32(1) subparagraph 3 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 (OJ L 161 of 6 26.6.1999), also support this position. () For example, in the United Kingdom there was a central government ruling to regional offices prohibiting the payment of advances and in the German Objective 3 (Bavaria) SPD and Spain objective 3 SPD, the payment of advances to final grant recipients was also prohibited. 
Kommissionens tolkning av artikel 32.1 tredje stycket i rdets frordning (EG) nr 1260/1999 (EGT L 161, 26.6.1999) stder ocks denna 6 stndpunkt. () Exempelvis fanns det i Frenade kungariket ett statligt beslut som avsg regionkontor och som frbjd frskottsutbetalning, och i det tyska samlade programdokumentet fr ml 3 (Bayern) och det spanska samlade programdokumentet fr ml 3 var frskottsbetalningar till slutliga bidragsmottagare ocks frbjudna.
55. development initiatives away from individual initiatives towards a more strategic form of support, it encouraged Member States to maintain funding of existing territorial employment pacts (TEPs) and to support new pacts within operational programmes (see paragraph 54(c)). 
55. utvecklingsinitiativ verg frn individuella initiativ till en mer strategisk form av std uppmanade kommissionen medlemsstaterna att bibehlla finansieringen av befintliga territoriella sysselsttningspakter och att stdja nya pakter inom ramen fr operativa program2 (se punkt 54.c)).
Nevertheless, in some Member States (2) there was a lack of support for the continued funding of TEPs by national administrations. 
Likvl saknades det i vissa medlemsstater ( ) std fr fortsatt finansiering av territoriella sysselsttningspakter frn nationella frvaltningar.
Delays in the use of global grants by Member States 56. 
Frseningar i samband med medlemsstaternas utnyttjande av globalt std 56.
The introduction of global grantsŐ mechanisms to manage small grants (see paragraph 26), in the 2000 to 2006 ESF programming period, resulted in significant delays in the execution of local employment actions. 
Infrandet av mekanismer fr globalt std fr frvaltning av sm bidrag (se punkt 26) under ESF:s programplaneringsperiod 2000Đ2006 ledde till vsentliga frseningar vid genomfrandet av lokala sysselsttningstgrder.
This was due to the necessity to obtain approval and conclude legal agreements with managing authoritiesatmanydifferentlevelsandduetodifficultiesin appointing experienced intermediate organisations. 
Detta berodde p att det var ndvndigt att f godknnande av och sluta rttsligt bindande avtal med frvaltningsmyndigheter p mnga olika niver och p svrigheter att utse erfarna frmedlande organisationer.
In two instances (3) delays of 15 to 18 months were recorded, which was considerably longer than in the case of other measures of the programmes. 
I tv fall (3) registrerades frseningar p 15Đ18 mnader, vilket var avsevrt lngre n fr andra tgrder inom programmen.
Similarly, in the case of the Objective 3 programme for France, the requirement that the establishment of global grant intermediaries await formal adoption of operational programmes by the Commission, meant that the selection process for intermediaries was not started until November 2000. 
Nr det gller ml 3Đprogrammet i Frankrike fick kravet p att frmedlande organ fr globalt std skulle upprttas efter det att kommissionen formellt antagit de operativa programmen fljden att urvalsprocessen fr frmedlande organ inte inleddes frrn i november 2000.
Furthermore, the possibility of using global grants was also found to be statutorily restricted in some cases. In Austria, 1 () Communication from the Commission on the implementation of Innovative Measures under Article 6 of the European social Fund Regulation for the programming period 2000 to 2006, para-2 graph 27 (COM(2000) 894 of 12 January 2001).

29.10.2002 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning C 263/35 Brist p kommersiell finansiering fr lokala tgrder 62.
A further obstacle to the development of effective local employment was the lack of commercial financing for such actions. 
Ytterligare ett hinder fr utvecklingen av effektiva lokala sysselsttningstgrder var bristen p kommersiell finansiering fr sdana tgrder.
Many non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and intermediaries do not have a mandate to seek commercial funding. 
Mnga icke-statliga organisationer och frmedlande organ har inte mjlighet att ska kommersiell finansiering.
This sometimes adds to the exclusion of both the voluntary sector and private companies in the development of local employment. 
Detta bidrar ibland till att bde den frivilliga sektorn och privata fretag utesluts vid utvecklingen av lokal sysselsttning.
