Notes that in 2021 the Authority continued its activities and was able to deliver its work programme despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; notes, that the Authority suspended its staff missions, as well as physical meetings/events and gave priority to virtualisation, thus decreasing the budget in expenses in the related budget lines compared to the 2020 financial year; notes, moreover, that return to the office by staff was postponed and teleworking was promoted; encourages the Agency to make use of the lessons learned regarding staff travel, in order to better recognize meetings that are more efficient to be held remotely than in-person in the future.
