  The European Parliament adopted a decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (CEDEFOP) for the financial year 2007. The decision to grant discharge is also an approval of the closure of the accounts of this EU agency. Furthermore, the Parliament adopted by 577 votes to 14, with 41 abstentions, a resolution with observations which are an integral part of the decision to grant discharge. The Parliament stresses that:the European Court of Auditors (ECA) observed that objectives and performance indicators were often not measurable for the activities undertaken by the Centre;the Centre took a decision to provide for such indicators for activities undertaken in 2008.Lastly, noting that the Centre’s annual accounts for the financial year 2007 are reliable, and the underlying transactions are legal and regular, the Parliament approves the closure of the Centre’s accounts and refers, for other observations accompanying its decision on discharge, to its resolution on financial management and control of EU agencies - see 2008/2207(INI) - adopted in parallel.

CONTENT: the Court of Auditors report includes a detailed section on Cedefop’s expenditure as well as an analysis of the expenditure in the accounts and the Centre’s replies. Court’s observations : the Court only makes one remark about the Centre’s 2007 work programme. The Court states that the Centre should define precise objectives and improve its programming. The programming should establish a clear and consistent link between the set objectives and the implementation of the budgetary resources needed to achieve them. The Centre’s reply: t he Centre states that it will take account of the observation of the Court. type: Court of Auditors: opinion, report body: CofA date: 2009-01-23T00:00:00 docs: url: http://register.consilium.europa.eu/content/out?lang=EN&typ=SET&i=ADV&RESULTSET=1&DOC_ID=5588%2F09&DOC_LANCD=EN&ROWSPP=25&NRROWS=500&ORDERBY=DOC_DATE+DESC title: 05588/2009 summary: Based on the observations contained in the revenue and expenditure account for 2007, CEDEFOP’s balance sheet of revenue and expenditure at 31 December 2007, the Court of Auditor’s report on the Centre’s annual accounts for 2007, alongside the Centre’s responses to the observations made by the Court, the Council recommends that the European Parliament provide the discharge to the director of the Centre in respect of the implementation of its budget for the financial year 2007. In doing so, the Council confirms that EUR 990 000 (54%) of the EUR 1.81 million in appropriations carried forward from the financial year 2006 to the financial year 2007 were used. EUR 2.03 million in appropriations was carried forward from the financial year 2007 to the financial year 2008 and EUR 980 000 was cancelled. The Council welcomes the fact that the Court of Auditors has been able to obtain reasonable assurance that the Centre's annual accounts for the financial year ended 31 December 2007 are, in all material aspects, reliable and that the underlying transactions, taken as a whole, are legal and regular. However, some observations need to be made: presentation of the budget : the Council notes with satisfaction the improvements achieved by the Centre in its management. However, it notes the fact that objectives and performance indicators are often still not measurable, thus making achievements difficult to assess. An activity-based budgeting is needed to establish a clear and consistent link between the objectives set and the implementation of the budgetary resource to achieve them. The Council takes note that the Centre introduced an Activity Based Budgeting in 2008 and expects it to have a positive impact on the future discharge procedure. type: Document attached to the procedure body: CSL date: 2009-01-29T00:00:00 docs: url: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?type=COMPARL&mode=XML&language=EN&reference=PE416.352 title: PE416.352 type: Committee draft report body: EP date: 2009-03-23T00:00:00 docs: url: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?type=REPORT&mode=XML&reference=A6-2009-177&language=EN title: A6-0177/2009 type: Committee report tabled for plenary, single reading body: EP
