"I voted for discharge to the Director of the European Police College (CEPOL) in respect of the implementation of its budget for the financial year 2006 on the basis of the report by Mr Martin recommending that Parliament should grant discharge. The discharge process should be simplified and rationalised for satellite agencies, which have increased in number (from 8 in 2000 to 20 in 2006) and now represent a total budget of around EUR 1 billion. I support the call for the Commission to present a study every five years on the added value of each agency and not to hesitate to close agencies that are not useful.
Similarly, improvements are urgently needed to agencies’ internal audit procedures, and I welcome the possibility of having an inter-agency disciplinary board. While taking into account the reasons given by the College, in particular that it was difficult for this new Community body to meet the principles of the Financial Regulation straight away and that control systems have since been put in place, it would seem normal that, by June 2008 at the latest, this body should fully comply with the provisions of the Financial Regulation."@en1
