"I voted in favour of this report and would like to congratulate the rapporteur on her work. While there are certain paragraphs my Group and I voted against, we are firmly convinced of the importance of policy coherence and, more importantly, we believe in ensuring it works. We must continue to work towards achieving better coordination, increased burden sharing, greater efficiency and better results. Parliament has currently no oversight capacity when it comes to the EDF, no real measure of how the money is spent and very few audit mechanisms in place. EUR 6 billion are lost annually due to the fragmentation and lack of coordination between the Member States’ management of the EDF. Having a coherent and coordinated system in place, as in the case of the DCI, which is monitored by Parliament, could save taxpayers’ money. We have to make sure our outcomes are consistent with the promises we make to our taxpayers. In these tough economic times it is vital that every pound we spend on foreign aid goes to the right place and achieves the right result."@en1
