Amendment 14 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 5 5. Notes with regret from the Court’s report that with regard to a framework contract for a maximum amount of EUR 170 000 for the supply of electricity, the Foundation incorrectly used a negotiated procedure with a single candidate, which resulted in irregular related contracts and associated payments; welcomes the Foundation's reply that the new tender has already been planned for early 2021 and will be of a competitive nature;

Amendment 16 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 5 a (new) 5a. Notes with regret from the Court’s report that with regard to another framework contract, the Foundation should have used an open procedure instead of a negotiated procedure justified by the Foundation on the basis of a budget which was underestimated; notes from the Foundation’s reply that it did a screening of the local market, based the budget on professional advice, publicly advertised the contract and published a contract award notice in the Official Journal;
Amendment 17 #

Stresses that at the time when the European Commission will launch its Action Plan on the implementation of the European Pillar of Social Rights and the European Council foresees its endorsement at the Porto Summit in May 2021, Eurofound research reveals the complexity of the social dimension of the European Union and suggests complementing the Social Scoreboard accompanying the European Pillar of Social Rights with additional indicators covering job quality, social justice and equal opportunities, robust social welfare systems and fair mobility; stresses that Eurofound should have the appropriate financial and human resources to develop further those indicators;

Amendment 8 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4 a (new) 4a. Notes that the agency’s publications are produced almost exclusively in English and deplores the fact that its work is not translated to make it accessible to the European public in their national languages; calls for its budget to be made contingent upon a language clause to foster greater transparency by ensuring its work may be understood in each person’s language;

Welcomes the fact that Eurofound has for years now extended its cooperation beyond the agencies under the remit of DG EMPL in the context of the EU Agencies Network (EUAN), including EIGE and FRA, for which sharing of services has been a strategic priority for many years to ensure efficient cooperation;
