"The EU’s expenditure must be managed in a correct and transparent way. It is therefore extremely important for the EU’s agencies and their activities to be scrutinised by the European Court of Auditors and by Parliament in the discharge process. We believe, however, that the rapporteur’s line is far too critical and focuses too much on details rather than the overarching and important issues for implementing the decisions taken at European level. We support the agencies, as they can help us to make our food safer, our environment cleaner and our aeroplanes and flights safer. The rapporteur’s criticism also largely relates to situations that have already been dealt with, as well as circumstances that the agencies do not have any control over themselves. It is important to safeguard the agencies’ independence, but when an agency cannot do more than it is already doing in individual cases, it would be wrong to use these as a reason not to grant discharge. We believe that there is adequate correction and monitoring of potential errors and that the agencies should therefore be granted discharge."@en1
