summary
In adopting the report by Mr KELLETT-BOWMAN (PPE, RU), Parliament noted the figures for the Foundation's accounts and recommended again the appointment of a part-time financial controller, working under the Commission, as a means of reducing the excessive recourse to imprest accounts. It believed that this reform could be applied to all the external agencies of the European Community and, on this basis, it gave discharge to the Foundation in respect of the implementation of its budget for the 1994 financial year. It called on the Management Board of the Foundation to respect the terms of its financial regulation in respect of transfers of appropriations and to review its policy on holding large cash balances (and in future to draw down a smaller subsidy from the Commission in a manner more closely related to its actual need to carry out expenditure). Parliament pointed out that it was essential to avoid overlap between the activities of the Foundation and those of the Commission and other Community bodies with closely related mandates. It noted with satisfaction that the Commission was willing to report to it, and to present proposals as appropriate, aimed at ensuring greater complementarity and cost-effectiveness. Finally, it looked forward to the definitive resolution of the long-standing difficulties relating to the ownership of the land occupied by the Foundation, and asked to be notified of the legal formalities for acquisition. �

summary
In its recommendation the Council called on Parliament to give discharge to the Management Board of the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training for the financial year 1994. It pointed out that according to the Foundation's revenue and expenditure account, the appropriations carried over from the 1993 financial year to the 1994 financial year, i.e. ECU 2 855 441.01 had been utilized at the rate of 89.3% (ECU 2 550 137.42) and that the appropriations carried over from the 1994 financial year to the 1995 financial year were ECU 2 060 861.72. The Council also included in its recommendation a certain number of comments based on the observations made by the Court of Auditors. In its report the Court had noted in particular that the Foundation still had to establish a certain number of procedures in order to conform to the Financial Regulation, namely: . virtually systematic use of payments of advances before receipt of the financial controller's visa, . carrying out of transfers between titles of the budget, . separation of the functions of accounting officers and authorizing officers, . growth in the size of the carry over of appropriations, calling into question respect for the principle of annuality and the under-utilization of these carry-overs the next year. The Council noted that the Foundation had already taken a certain number of steps to respond to the Court's observations. Nevertheless it recommended that during 1996 the Foundation should take action on the other observations. It pointed out that the transfers put forward by the Court were not excluded from the provisions in force. �
