"I voted in favour of granting discharge to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). I therefore sincerely deplore the fact that its discharge has been postponed until October, as the criteria were not met. The European Court of Auditors expressed no reservations regarding the reliability of the EFSA’s accounts or the legality and regularity of the underlying transactions. As for the Internal Audit Service (IAS), none of its recommendations were ‘critical’: the recommendations that give the most cause for concern. Furthermore, I do not think the rapporteur took a very useful approach by talking about ‘alleged conflicts of interest’ in her report. The agency has put in place rules to prevent possible conflicts of interest, but it also needs the expertise of officers who have worked in the private sector. The fact that some experts have had previous experience in the private sector does not mean they are not performing their new duties objectively. It should be proven that this is not the case before we condemn the agency in this way. The report provides no such proof."@en1
