title: OJ C 304 15.12.2009, p. 0001
title: N7-0012/2010
summary: PURPOSE: to present the report by the Court of Auditors on the 2008 annual accounts of the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA).
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 Auditor’s 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 : in its report, the Court makes a series of comments as regards the budgetary and financial management of the Agency. It notes in particular that the Agency carried forward EUR 3.4 million of which approximately EUR 1 million concerned commitments which were entirely related to 2009. These carry-over artificially decreased the budgetary outturn by the same amount and thus reduced the level of repayments to the Commission. This situation is at odds with the principle of annuality. The Court states that one framework contract that was frequently used by the Agency, total expenditure for 2008 surpassed the limit stated in the contract notice by EUR 200 000. The use of a framework contract beyond its maximal value is irregular. The Agency should have launched a new public procurement procedure for a new framework contract as soon as possible.
· The Agency’s replies : the Agency states that it will improve its monitoring and planning of operational expenditure to avoid committing significant funds at the year-end. As regards public procurement, the Agency highlights that a new framework contract for the organisation and management of public campaigns has been prepared and launched in July 2009.

title: 05827/2010
summary: Based on the observations contained in the revenue and expenditure account and the balance sheet of the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work 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:
budget planning : the Council stresses the importance of planning consistently operational activities and financial resources and of monitoring carefully their implementation in order to comply with the principle of annuality and avoid abnormally high carry-over rates; tendering : the Council takes note of the Agency's explanation for the irregular use of a framework service contract beyond its maximal value and welcomes the launch of a call for tenders for its replacement.

summary: The Committee on Budgetary Control adopted the report by Véronique MATHIEU (EPP, FR) on discharge to be granted to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, 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 the Agency’s 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 congratulate the Agency on having significantly improved its financial management over the last three years and they encourage it to continue to strive for the highest standards in budgetary planning, implementation and control. They congratulate the Agency on the establishment of a network of European organisations which can provide occupational safety and health economic incentives. They also call on the Agency to set out a comparison of operations carried out during the year for which discharge is to be granted and in the previous financial year so as to enable the discharge authority to assess its performance from one year to the next more effectively; operating appropriations carried over : the committee notes that the Agency carried forward EUR 3.4 million (44% of its operating appropriations) and it calls, in the interests of sound financial management, for the budget forecasts to be adjusted to reflect actual needs. It congratulates the Agency nevertheless on improving its monitoring and planning of operational expenditure to avoid committing significant funds at the year-end; procurement procedures : Members note the irregularity identified by the Court of Auditors with respect to a procurement procedure (use of a framework contract beyond its maximum value). They expect the Agency to resolve the problem of using a public procurement framework contract beyond its maximum value, in order to give effect to European budgetary law; internal audit : lastly, Members ask the Agency to implement the recommendations from the Internal Audit Service (IAS) in particular as regards the internal control standards.

summary: The European Parliament adopted by 553 votes to 30, with 54 abstentions, a decision on discharge to be granted to the Director of the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work 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 congratulates the Agency on having significantly improved its financial management over the last three years and it encourages it to continue to strive for the highest standards in budgetary planning, implementation and control. It congratulates the Agency on the establishment of a network of European organisations which can provide occupational safety and health economic incentives. It also calls on the Agency to set out a comparison of operations carried out during the year for which discharge is to be granted and in the previous financial year so as to enable the discharge authority to assess its performance from one year to the next more effectively; operating appropriations carried over: Parliament notes that the Agency carried forward EUR 3.4 million (44% of its operating appropriations) and it calls, in the interests of sound financial management, for the budget forecasts to be adjusted to reflect actual needs. It congratulates the Agency, nevertheless, on improving its monitoring and planning of operational expenditure to avoid committing significant funds at the year-end; procurement procedures: Parliament notes the irregularity identified by the Court of Auditors with respect to a procurement procedure (use of a framework contract beyond its maximum value). It expects the Agency to resolve the problem of using a public procurement framework contract beyond its maximum value, in order to give effect to European budgetary law; internal audit: lastly, Parliament asks the Agency to implement the recommendations from the Internal Audit Service (IAS) in particular as regards the internal control standards.
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).
