"Mr President, I should like to take advantage of the time that remains first of all to thank the MEPs for their kind words of appreciation in relation to the Court of Auditors and its work.
To grant discharge is a privilege of Parliament. Today, we heard calls for better supervision of the work, better feedback, better financial management, further simplification of procedures and improved accountability and transparency mechanisms. I think that we have an opportunity here for all institutions to review their regulatory and implementation frameworks for the next programming period. We must have clearer, simpler rules and pursue objectives which are meaningful in themselves if we want to create added value for the European Union.
The current developments in economic governance in the EU present us with new questions, particularly as regards the accountability mechanism. The European Stability Mechanism is one of these developments. I am happy to be able to tell you that an audit committee of independent auditors has been set up and that it will present its reports to Parliament. I have also heard calls for the Court of Auditors to submit as soon as possible its report on conflicts of interest in the agencies. I had already pointed this out in writing to this institution on several occasions: rest assured that you will have this report. However, please give us the time to prepare it well and to engage in adversary proceedings with the agencies concerned, so that it gives you real added value in your debates on other issues."@en1
