Amendment 1 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 1 1.
Amendment 10 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 11 a (new) 11 a. Notes with concern that during the period from 2018 to 2021 the average annual rate of interim staff for all Joint Undertakings remained high at around 11 % of statutory staff; recalls that the high level of contractual staff tends to increase significantly the Joint Undertaking’s staff turnover rate and further destabilises the staffing situation; emphasises, moreover, that the use of interim staff should remain a temporary solution or it could negatively affect the Joint Undertaking’s overall performance, such as the retention of key competences, unclear accountability channels, possible judicial disputes and lower staff efficiency;
Amendment 11 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 11 a (new) 11 a. Notes from the Annual Activity Report 2021 that there is an appropriate gender balance with 66% of staff being female: 50% members at the Governing Board, 61,5% of appointed nominees at SRG and 41,7% of full members in the scientific committee are women; encourages the Joint Undertaking to maintain this balance;
Amendment 12 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 12 12.
Amendment 13 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 12 a (new) 12 a. notes that the part of the employers' contributions for the staff of the Joint Undertakings corresponding to the ratio of their non-EU subsidised revenues to their total revenues, has not been paid by the Joint Undertakings to the EU pension scheme since 2016, as the Commission has neither foreseen this expenditure in the budget of the Joint Undertakings nor formally requested the payments; calls for the Commission to take steps to avoid similar issues in the future.
Amendment 14 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 14 a (new) 14 a. Emphasises that the Court’s finding confirmed persistent systemic errors for declared personnel costs and that in particular, SMEs and new beneficiaries are more error-prone than other beneficiaries. Highlights that these errors are also regularly reported in Court’s previous annual reports since 2017; emphasises therefore that streamlining of the H2020 rules for the declaration of personnel costs and wider use of simplified cost options is a precondition to stabilise error rates to below materiality level; emphasises that Joint Undertaking should strengthen its internal control systems to address the increased risk regarding SMEs and new beneficiaries and strongly encourage the use of the Personnel Costs Wizard by certain categories of beneficiaries that are more prone to errors, such as SMEs and new beneficiaries; welcomes that in 2022 all Joint Undertakings have started implementing actions for error rate reductions in line with the action proposed by the Court including exploring the options of simplified forms of costs such as unit costs, lump sums and flat rates.
Amendment 15 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 15 15. Notes that, given the multi-annual nature of both programmes and individual research projects, the residual error rate calculated on the duration of the programme provides the most meaningful indication of the financial impact of errors
Amendment 16 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 19 19.
Amendment 2 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 1 a (new) 1 a. Acknowledges that Horizon Europe envisages ambitious goals for the Joint Undertaking, that can only be achieved if effective solutions that address the weaknesses in the internal control systems and prepare for the future challenges arising from increased responsibilities, e.g. in the area of human resources management and planning, are designed and implemented; points out, in this context, that particularly complicated and burdensome calculations and reporting requirements represent a significant risk of error and calls therefore, to explore the possibilities of simplifications wherever possible and compatible with the existing legal framework;
Amendment 3 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 2 a (new) 2 a. Notes that there is no harmonised definition of "administrative costs" among the Joint Undertakings, which is a basis for calculating the financial contributions of its members and a precondition for the purpose of comparable figures; calls with this in mind for common guidelines for all Joint Undertakings to take a harmonised approach for the classification of certain administrative cost expenditure categories, such as expenditure for consultations, studies, analysis, evaluations, and technical assistance;
Amendment 4 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 3 3.
Amendment 5 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 4 4.
Amendment 6 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 7 7.
Amendment 7 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 9 9. Notes with appreciation that Joint Undertaking’s projects have generated 275 assets that completed a significant milestone during the project lifecycle (the target was 50); notes that those assets include, amongst others, tools, methodologies, processes, services, training materials; notes that examples of milestones are key clinical trial phases, animal models, prototypes, commercialisation, patents, publications; notes, moreover, that industry participants in many of the Joint undertaking’s projects are making use of new tools and processes generated by the projects, such as animal models, standards, biomarkers, standard operating procedures (SOPs), use of screening platforms, clinical trial networks;
Amendment 8 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 10 10.
Amendment 9 #
Motion for a resolution Subheading 3 a (new) Welcomes that the Joint Undertaking has maintained a good geographical balance (20 different countries) and a good gender balance (22 women, 17 men) when external experts were consulted;
