Paragraph 10
10. Acknowledges from the Agency that in 2014, it offered detailed explanations and training to the beneficiaries regarding the criteria for eligibility of costs, and in particular, the acceptable methodologies for calculating staff costs, all described in a written manual; notes furthermore that the Agency conducted four on-the-spot verifications, with the objective of verifying the calculation of the claimed costs based on relevant documentation and analysing the reliability of the internal control systems put in place; takes note that the verifications included checking the payments made in 2013, which covered 20,45 % of beneficiaries' total staff costs and that 0,12 % of the controlled costs were considered as ineligible; calls however on the Agency to further improve the level of its ex ante verifications to ensure the eligibility of beneficiaries and to inform the discharge authority on further progress in this regard;
