Amendment 4 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 2
2. Takes note that by the end of 2019, outstanding commitments continued to rise, reaching EUR 298.0 billion; highlights that this increase was due to the fact that commitment appropriations systematically exceeded payment appropriations and that payment needs were being postponed to the next MFF, basically owing to delays in the implementation of the European Structural and Investment (ESI) funds; to that end, recommends that the Commission takes measures to avoid undue pressure on the level of appropriations in the first years of the new MFF 2021-2027;

Draft opinion
Paragraph 3 c (new)
3c. Takes note of the Special report No 14/2016 (‘EU policy initiatives and financial support for Roma integration’) according to which significant progress has been made in the last decade when it comes to Roma integration, however, obstacles still remain on the ground; regrets in this context that ‘best practices’ criteria contributing to successful Roma inclusion were not always applied and monitoring performance was difficult; recalls that the lack of robust and comprehensive data on Roma is a problem for evidence-based policy-making at EU and national level; deplores the fact that this situation might remain unchanged unless swift action is taken;
