title: N7-0012/2010
summary: PURPOSE: to present the Court of Auditor’s report on the annual accounts of the European Union Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) for the financial year 2008.
CONTENT: in the Court’s opinion, the Agency’s Annual Accounts present fairly, in all material respects, its financial position as of 31 December 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended. The transactions underlying the annual accounts of the Agency for the financial year ended are, in all material respects, legal and regular.
The Court of Auditors report includes a detailed section on the Agency’s expenditure as well as an analysis of the expenditure in the accounts and the Agency’s replies.
· The Court’s analysis of the accounts : the Court makes no comments on the budgetary and financial management. It does however make one remark about the Agency’s 2008 work programme. The objectives and indicators are not specific and measurable, which makes difficult to identify shortfalls and to assess achievements. In order to establish a genuinely activity based budget, the Agency should define precise objectives and establish relevant and measurable performance indicators.
· The Agency’s reply : the Agency states that the 2009 Annual Work Programme defines S.M.A.R.T. objectives per activity and therefore the Activity Based Management approach has been improved. Moreover, mid-2009, the Agency started the implementation of an Activity Based Budget software that will provide clear indicators on the financial and human resources allocated.

title: 05827/2010
summary: Based on the observations contained in the revenue and expenditure account and the balance sheet of the European Union Fundamental Rights Agency for the financial year 2008, as well as on the Court of Auditor’s report and the Agency’s replies to the Court’s observations, the Council recommends that the Parliament grant the Director of the Agency discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget for the financial year 2008.
The Council welcomes the Court's opinion that, on the one hand, the Agency's annual accounts present fairly, in all material aspects, the financial position as at 31 December 2008 and the results of operations and cash-flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the provisions of the Agency's Financial Regulation, and that, on the other hand, the underlying transactions for the financial year ended on 31 December 2008 are, in all material respects, legal and regular.
However, the Council considers that observations made in the Court of Auditor’s report call for a certain number of observations to be taken into account when granting discharge, particularly on the following points:
work programme and performance indicators : the Council regrets the shortcomings identified by the Court in the specification of objectives in the Agency's work programme and the lack of specific and measurable performance indicators. It is concerned about the limited possibilities of assessing achievements and identifying deficiencies resulting from such shortfalls; activity based management : the Council calls on the Agency to implement an activity based management approach which provides clear indicators linked to objectives set out at activity level.

summary: The Committee on Budgetary Control adopted the report by Véronique MATHIEU (EPP, FR) on discharge to be granted to the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, calling on the European Parliament to grant the Director of the Agency discharge in respect of the implementation of the Agency’s budget for the financial year 2008.
Noting that the Agency’s annual accounts for the financial year 2008 are reliable, and the underlying transactions are legal and regular, MEPs approve the closure of its accounts. However, they make a number of recommendations that need to be taken into account when the discharge is granted, in addition to the general recommendations that appear in the draft resolution on financial management and control of EU agencies (see 2010/2007(INI) :
performance : Members encourage the Agency to set objectives and indicators in its programming so as to improve assessment of its achievements. They note that in the coming years the discharge for the implementation of the budget for the Agency should be further based on the Agency's performance throughout the year; OLAF investigation : Members note that in 2009 OLAF finished its investigation concerning the Agency which it had opened in 2008 and has now closed it with no further action.

summary: The European Parliament adopted by 550 votes to 39, with 50 abstentions, a decision on discharge to be granted to the Director of the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights in respect of the implementation of its budget for the financial year 2008. The decision to grant discharge is also an approval of the closure of the accounts of this EU agency. Furthermore, Parliament adopted a resolution with observations which are an integral part of the decision to grant discharge to this Agency.
The main points are as follows:
performance: Parliament encourages the Agency to set objectives and indicators in its programming so as to improve assessment of its achievements. It notes that, in the coming years, the discharge for the implementation of the budget for the Agency should be further based on the Agency's performance throughout the year; OLAF investigation: Parliament notes that, in 2009, OLAF finished its investigation concerning the Agency which it had opened in 2008 and has now closed it with no further action.
Noting that the Agency’s annual accounts for the financial year 2008 are reliable, and the underlying transactions are legal and regular, Parliament approves the closure of its accounts and refers to the general recommendations that appear in the draft resolution on financial management and control of EU agencies (see 2010/2007(INI) adopted in parallel).
