This report is addressed to the Management Board of the European Environment Agency in accordance with Article 13(4) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1210/90 (1). 2. The Court has examined the financial statements of the Euro- pean Environment Agency for the financial year ended 31 Decem- ber 1998. In accordance with Article 14(1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1210/90 the budget was implemented at the responsi- bility of the Executive Director. This responsibility included the drawing-up and presentation of the financial statements (2) in accordance with the internal financial provisions provided for in Article 14 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1210/90. The Court of Auditors is required under Article 248 of the Treaty establishing the European Community to audit those accounts. 3. The Court performed its audit in accordance with its audit policies and standards. These have been adapted from generally accepted international auditing standards to reflect the specific characteristics of the Community context. The Court carried out such tests of the accounting records and applied such other audit procedures as it deemed necessary in the circumstances. By means of this audit the Court obtained a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed below. 4. This examination has enabled the Court to obtain reasonable assurance that the annual accounts for the financial year ended 31 December 1998 are reliable and that the underlying transactions, taken as a whole, are legal and regular. 6. During the evaluation procedure it was noted that the system had been put in place before all the requisite preliminary tests had been finally completed. This can be partially explained by the inadequacies of the Commission(cid:146)s software. Several manual adjust- ments and corrections were made. A service level agreement with the Commission is essential. Advisory Committee on Procurement and Contracts (ACPC) 7. As regards the ACPC procedures for the introduction of SI 2, there was found to have been an unexplained delay of five months after the evaluation of the restricted call for tenders. Furthermore, the time needed to carry out the work was badly estimated. In addition the procedures followed in selecting the contractor were not entirely justified. Contracts with the Topic Centres MAIN OBSERVATIONS ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BUDGET OF THE EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENT AGENCY FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 1998 General (SI X) and budget (SI 2) accounts 8. In connection with the supporting documents for these con- tracts, and the analytical expenses in particular, the Court found that in the cases which it examined there had been no internal control, although it was required under Article 8 of the contrac- tual clauses relating to the subsidies for the Topic Centres. 5. Throughout the various phases of SI 2 (new version) the Agency was not only overdependent on outside experts, but also, Publication (1) OJ L 120, 11. 5. 1990, p. 1. (2) Pursuant to Article 13(3) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1210/90 the accounts for all the Agency(cid:146)s revenue and expenditure for the finan- cial year 1998 were drawn up on 20 April 1999 and were sent to the Agency(cid:146)s Management Board, the Commission and the Court of Auditors and the latter received them on 26 April 1999. The sum- mary form of those financial statements is published in the tables annexed to this report. 9. The Agency published neither its budget nor the table of its posts in the Official Journal of the European Communities although it is required to do so under Article 13 on its Financial Regula- tion. 22. 12. 1999 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 372/9 This report was adopted by the Court of Auditors in Luxembourg at the Court meeting of 24 and 25 November 1999.

To point 6: While those observations are correct, they seem to imply a criti- cism of what has been we think up to now a good operational way of proceeding (and maybe the only way left under the exist- ing circumstances) since it has included: (cid:151) a parallel testing of S I2 during 1998 until it became the EEA budget system in January 1999 (and it performed well and was stable). Manual interventions (or adjustments) were required due to the limitations and errors of the software, however they did not modify existing or introduce new com- mitments or payments, and (cid:151) a service level agreement will soon be reached between the Commission and the European Training Foundation in Turin on behalf of seven Agencies, including this Agency, which joined in a common support agreement. Advisory Committee on Procurement and Contracts (ACPC) To point 7: It is our understanding that the whole process has developed respecting the procedures and following the best practices: (cid:151) the estimate of the required work was made in 1997 based on the limited information available and with the support of the European Commission Services. Due to unforeseen reasons, a consolidated updated estimate was submitted to ACPC with a delay, (cid:151) a call for expression of interest was published in the Official Journal of the European Communities. A restricted call for tender was addressed to 38 companies, and the published awarding criteria were used for the selection. The Agency will try to improve future evaluation procedures concerning the final selection of the successful candidate and meanwhile has intro- duced more differentiated gradings for evaluations. Contracts with the Topic Centres To point 8: The control was made but not recorded in the dossiers. While the documents justifying the expenses under contracts with the Euro- pean Topic Centres (ETCs) were reviewed and checked continu- ously throughout the year (and some payments were not made because the appropriate work was not delivered), no trail was kept in the dossiers. Projects Managers have now specific instruc- tions to establish the internal control trail. Publication of the EEA(cid:146)s budget To point 9: (cid:151) The Agency published its 1998 budget only on its homepage on the Internet (approximately five million hits per year and 360 000 users per year). It followed the views expressed in 1998 by the European Parliament Budget Committee at a meeting with Agencies (cid:145)Directors, indicating that the second generation of Agencies(cid:146) budget should not necessarily be pub- lished in the Official Journal of the European Communities; pub- lishing on the Internet would be more efficient (cheaper and higher dissemination). (cid:151) In 1999, the EEA published its budget on the Internet again. Following the Court of Auditors(cid:146) statement and to respect to the letter its Financial Regulation, the EEA will also publish its 1999 budget in the Official Journal of the European Communities together with the other six Agencies (to lower the cost). 22. 12. 1999 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 372/13 However, considering also the European Parliament(cid:146)s views and the Agency(cid:146)s experiences, the following must be assessed: EEA(cid:146)s homepage where the full budget and establishment plan is available, (cid:151) the most cost-effective alternative for making the budget information accessible and disseminated to the public. It could include publishing in the Official Journal of the Euro- pean Communities a summary and the reference to the (cid:151) the proper way to reflect it in the EEA financial regula- tion clauses, by adapting it in a cost effective manner to the possibilities of information technology

text: C 107/110 Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning SV 13. 4. 2000 Torsdag 7 oktober 1999 11. uppmanar rådet, kommissionen och Internationella återuppbyggnads- och utvecklingsbanken att vid tilldelningen av återuppbyggnadsstödet prioritera de kommuner som skyddar och förhindrar våld mot och diskriminering av etniska minoriteter och andra personer på grund av deras politiska tillhörighet, 12. uppmanar kommissionen och rådet att bevilja särskilt stöd till program som underlättar dialogen mellan företrädare för den albanska majoriteten i Kosovo och företrädare för minoritetsgrupperna, t. ex. romerna, samt till andra förtroendeskapande åtgärder, uppdrar åt talmannen att översända denna resolution till rådet, komissionen, Förenta nationerna 13. och UNMIK, OSSE, Nato och Förenta nationernas generalsekreterares tillförordnade särskilda företrädare för humantära ärenden i Kosovo. 7. Flygolycka vid Ustica B5-0148, 0156, 0160, 0162 och 0176/1999 Resolution om flygolyckan vid Ustica Europaparlamentet utfärdar denna resolution A. Den 27 juni 1980 blev en DC9:a på väg från Bologna till Palermo med 81 passagerare av okänd anledning nedskjuten. B. Den allmänna opinionen i Europa har alltid följt utvecklingen i denna händelse med stort intresse, och föreningen för anhöriga till offren från Usticaolyckan har outtröttligen engagerat sig för att få reda på vad som verkligen hände. C. I ett sådant här fall är målet att få fram sanningen viktigt också för den framtida säkerheten för alla medborgare i Europeiska unionen och för deras tilltro till de civila och militära institutionerna. D. Under flera år har de italienska åklagarmyndigheternas utredningar och undersökningar stått stilla, bland annat på grund av otillräcklig samarbetsvilja hos vissa myndigheter både i Italien och i andra länder, och dessutom hos Nato. E. Under de senaste veckorna har de italienska åklagarmyndigheterna lagt fram resultatet av ytterligare en undersökning. F. Det är absolut nödvändigt att relevanta myndigheter i Frankrike, Förenade kungariket, Förenta staterna och Nato samt eventuellt andra stater som pekats ut eller kan pekas ut, så att det exakta ansvaret för flygkatastrofen kan redas ut. G. Italiens regering har beslutat att till berörda länder översända de delar av åklagarnas handlingar där ländernas roll uttryckligen berörs och officiellt begära erforderligt samarbete. 1. Parlamentet uppmanar berörda stater, främst de som direkt omnämns i åklagarnas handlingar, att i erforderlig omfattning samarbeta med den italienska åklagarmyndigheten, så att undersökningarna slutgil- tigt kan slutföras; uppmanar dessutom rådet att i enlighet med fördragens principer om öppenhet upp- mana de berörda staterna att samarbeta, 2. uppmanar rådet och kommissionen att tillsammans med medlemsstaterna vidta en samordnad insats i syfte att se till att det tas fram effektivare säkerhetsbestämmelser för den civila luftfarten med avseende på militär verksamhet från Nato och enskilda länder, uppmanar talmannen att översända denna resolution till rådet, kommissionen, medlemsstaternas 3. regeringar, Förenta staternas regeringar och Natos generalsekreterare

El presente Informe estÆ dirigido al Consejo de direcci(cid:243)n de la Fundaci(cid:243)n Europea de Formaci(cid:243)n, de conformidad con el apar- tado 4 del art(cid:237)culo 11 del Reglamento (CEE) no 1360/90 del Con- sejo (1). 2. El Tribunal ha examinado los estados financieros de la Fun- daci(cid:243)n Europea de Formaci(cid:243)n correspondientes al ejercicio que finaliz(cid:243) el 31 de diciembre de 1998. De conformidad con el apar- tado 1 del art(cid:237)culo 11 del Reglamento (CEE) no 1360/90 del Con- sejo, la ejecuci(cid:243)n presupuestaria es competencia del Director. Dicha competencia incluye la elaboraci(cid:243)n y presentaci(cid:243)n de los estados financieros (2), de acuerdo con las disposiciones financie- ras internas previstas en el art(cid:237)culo 12 del Reglamento (CEE) no 1360/90 del Consejo. El Tribunal de Cuentas debe examinar dichas cuentas, conforme a lo dispuesto en el art(cid:237)culo 248 del Tra- tado constitutivo de la Comunidad Europea. 3. El Tribunal realiz(cid:243) su fiscalizaci(cid:243)n siguiendo sus pol(cid:237)ticas y normas de auditor(cid:237)a, que resultan de la adaptaci(cid:243)n de las normas internacionales de auditor(cid:237)a generalmente aceptadas para reflejar las caracter(cid:237)sticas espec(cid:237)ficas del Æmbito comunitario. El Tribunal examin(cid:243) los documentos contables y aplic(cid:243) los procedimientos de fiscalizaci(cid:243)n que estim(cid:243) necesarios con arreglo a las circuns- tancias. Mediante esta fiscalizaci(cid:243)n, el Tribunal recab(cid:243) suficiente informaci(cid:243)n para formarse la opini(cid:243)n que a continuaci(cid:243)n se expresa. 4. El examen ha permitido al Tribunal obtener garant(cid:237)as razo- nables de que las cuentas anuales correspondientes al ejercicio que finaliz(cid:243) el 31 de diciembre de 1998 son fiables y que las ope- raciones subyacentes son, en su conjunto, legales y regulares. [vØase el Informe anual espec(cid:237)fico de 1997 (3)]. Por otro lado, el saldo (35,8 millones de ecus el 31 de diciembre de 1998) de una treintena de cuentas bancarias que la Fundaci(cid:243)n utiliza para ges- tionar dichos programas no figura en los estados financieros de la Fundaci(cid:243)n. Tras conversaciones con el Tribunal y la Comisi(cid:243)n, la Fundaci(cid:243)n ha acordado publicar tales informaciones en un anexo a su presupuesto a partir de 1999. 6. La Fundaci(cid:243)n no ha publicado su presupuesto ni el cuadro de su plantilla en el Diario Oficial de las Comunidades Europeas, con- trariamente a lo establecido en el art(cid:237)culo 13 de su Reglamento Financiero. 7. El Reglamento de la Fundaci(cid:243)n fue modificado en julio de 1998 para incluir el programa MEDA (acciones mediterrÆneas). Contabilidad general (SI X) y presupuestaria (SI 2) 8. La introducci(cid:243)n del sistema presupuestario SI 2 ha mejorado en conjunto los procedimientos de control interno. 9. En la fase de evaluaci(cid:243)n del sistema SI 2, se constat(cid:243) que dicho sistema se implant(cid:243) antes de la finalizaci(cid:243)n de todas las pruebas (program and system testing and data validation). Por consiguiente, durante el aæo hubo que resolver varios problemas, y el servicio informÆtico tuvo que intervenir varias veces y efectuar correccio- nes manuales en los programas y la base de datos. 10. AdemÆs, deber(cid:237)a realizarse un convenio de asistencia tØcnica (service level agreement) con la Comisi(cid:243)n para establecer las respon- sabilidades correspondientes y el nivel de responsabilidad de las distintas partes. PRINCIPALES OBSERVACIONES SOBRE LA EJECUCI(cid:211)N PRESU- PUESTARIA DE LA FUNDACI(cid:211)N EUROPEA DE FORMACI(cid:211)N CORRESPONDIENTE AL EJERCICIO QUE FINALIZ(cid:211) EL 31 DE DICIEMBRE DE 1998 11. A partir del ejercicio 2000, el sistema SI 2 incluirÆ la conta- bilidad general. Subvenciones extrapresupuestarias (cid:151) Phare, Tacis y MEDA CrØditos prorrogados 5. En el marco de los fondos Phare y Tacis, asignados al pro- grama Tempus, la Fundaci(cid:243)n gestiona fondos que la Comisi(cid:243)n ha puesto a su disposici(cid:243)n. Los importes correspondientes (aproxi- madamente 395 millones de ecus en 1998) no estÆn registrados en el presupuesto de la Fundaci(cid:243)n, sino en una contabilidad aparte (1) DO L 131 de 23. 5. 1990, p. 1. (2) Segœn lo dispuesto en el apartado 3 del art(cid:237)culo 11 del Reglamento (CEE) no 1360/90, el 31 de marzo de 1999 se elaboraron las cuentas de la totalidad de ingresos y gastos de la Fundaci(cid:243)n correspondientes al ejercicio 1998 y, a continuaci(cid:243)n, se remitieron al Consejo de direc- ci(cid:243)n de la Fundaci(cid:243)n, a la Comisi(cid:243)n y al Tribunal de Cuentas, que las recibi(cid:243) el 6 de abril de 1999. En los cuadros adjuntos al presente Informe se hallarÆ un resumen de dichos estados financieros. 12. Los crØditos prorrogados de 1998 a 1999 ascienden a 3,5 millones de ecus, es decir, al 23 % del presupuesto de la Funda- ci(cid:243)n. Se refieren principalmente al t(cid:237)tulo III, por un importe de 2,6 millones de ecus. La mayor parte de las pr(cid:243)rrogas estÆn rela- cionadas con los observatorios nacionales y la formaci(cid:243)n profe- sional. 13. Una cantidad significativa de pr(cid:243)rrogas estÆ vinculada a 28 contratos (valor total: 0,8 millones de ecus) cuya entrada en vigor (3) DO C 406 de 28. 12. 1998, p. 38. C 372/34 ES Diario Oficial de las Comunidades Europeas 22. 12. 1999 o cuya firma tuvo lugar durante noviembre y diciembre de 1998. En total, en 1998 se firmaron 67 contratos de servicio, financia- dos por valor de 1,6 millones de ecus con el presupuesto de la Fundaci(cid:243)n, lo que revela cierto desequilibrio en la organizaci(cid:243)n y programaci(cid:243)n de las actividades de la Fundaci(cid:243)n. 14. Un control exhaustivo de los crØditos prorrogados de 1998 a 1999 sobre los compromisos de la partida «puntos focales nacionales» muestra que siete compromisos, por valor total de 0,22 millones de ecus, es decir, el 48,7 % de las pr(cid:243)rrogas de dicha partida, se refieren exclusivamente a gastos que se expondrÆn en el ejercicio 1999. Se puede constatar lo mismo a partir de una muestra suplementaria de cuatro informes, por valor total de 0,06 millones de ecus, referidos a otras partidas del t(cid:237)tulo III del pre- supuesto de la Fundaci(cid:243)n. Puede deducirse que no se ha respetado el principio de anualidad presupuestaria, lo que va contra de las normas de la Fundaci(cid:243)n. El 31 de diciembre de 1998 se deber(cid:237)an haber anulado todos los importes indebidamente prorrogados. El presente Informe ha sido aprobado por el Tribunal de Cuentas en Luxemburgo en su reuni(cid:243)n de 7 de octu- bre de 1999. Por el Tribunal de Cuentas Jan O.

Ello mejora la transparen- cia y permite una revisi(cid:243)n completa de los fondos manejados por la Fundaci(cid:243)n. La Fundaci(cid:243)n public(cid:243) su presupuesto completo de 1998 en Inter- net. AdemÆs, ha publicado en el Diario Oficial de las Comunidades Europeas la informaci(cid:243)n de que puede encontrarse el presupuesto completo en Internet. La Comisi(cid:243)n y el Parlamento Europeo alen- taron dicha medida, porque mantiene e incluso ampl(cid:237)a la publi- cidad y el acceso en igualdad de condiciones de todos los ciuda- danos europeos al presupuesto, lo cual constituye claramente el objetivo del art(cid:237)culo 13 del Reglamento financiero. Al mismo tiempo, ello ha supuesto un considerable ahorro de costes para la Fundaci(cid:243)n, lo cual es muy importante si se tienen en cuenta las crecientes restricciones presupuestarias. Contabilidad general (SI X) y contabilidad presupuestaria (SI 2) Estamos de acuerdo en que, en tØrminos globales, SI 2 ha mejo- rado la contabilidad y el control presupuestario. Asimismo es correcto afirmar que el sistema anterior, basado en EXCEL, se ha mantenido hasta finales de aæo. El propio Tribunal de Cuentas menciona diversas deficiencias que aœn subsisten actualmente en el sistema SI 2. La experiencia adquirida a final de aæo, unida a los continuos esfuerzos de los expertos de desarrollo darÆ lugar a un resultado mejor el presente aæo, y evitarÆ las intervenciones manuales del tipo mencionado por el Tribunal de Cuentas. As(cid:237) pues, se ha registrado un considerable avance, que aumentarÆ en el futuro. Se ha preparado y negociado un acuerdo de servicios con la DG XIX (el proveedor de sistemas). Se espera su pronta firma, no s(cid:243)lo con la Fundaci(cid:243)n sino tambiØn con las demÆs agencias que par- ticipan en el servicio de soporte comœn del SI 2. Se estÆn aplicando todos los esfuerzos necesarios para ampliar el SI 2 a la contabilidad general y, a pesar del reducido per(cid:237)odo de tiempo restante, asegurar el inicio de su aplicaci(cid:243)n en enero de 2000. CrØditos prorrogados Los comentarios del Tribunal de Cuentas relativos a la anualidad del presupuesto se comprenden bien. Si bien son diversas las explicaciones de las dificultades para cumplir este principio [apro- baci(cid:243)n tard(cid:237)a del presupuesto (este aæo s(cid:243)lo en el mes de marzo), procedimientos complejos, ciclos de compras dilatados], la Fun- daci(cid:243)n se compromete firmemente a respetar el principio de anualidad del presupuesto. En cualquier caso, se optimizarÆn los procesos de planificaci(cid:243)n y ejecuci(cid:243)n para reducir el nœmero de actividades iniciadas a final del aæo. Hay que seæalar que el prin- cipio se refiere a actividades recogidas en el presupuesto nuclear de la Fundaci(cid:243)n, mientras que muchas actividades sujetas a «con- venios» tienen una perspectiva plurianual, algo mucho mÆs ade- cuado para el tipo de actividades en que participamos

text: L 291/36 PT Jornal Oficial das Comunidades Europeias 13. 11. 1999 BANCO CENTRAL EUROPEU DECISÃO DO BANCO CENTRAL EUROPEU de 7 de Outubro de 1999 relativa à prevenção da fraude (BCE/1999/5) (1999/726/CE) O CONSELHO DO BANCO CENTRAL EUROPEU, Tendo em conta os estatutos do Sistema Europeu de Bancos Centrais e do Banco Central Europeu (a seguir designados por «estatutos») e, nomeadamente, o n. o 3 do seu artigo 12. o, Tendo em conta a proposta da Comissão Executiva do Banco Central Europeu (BCE), Tendo em conta o parecer do Comité do Pessoal do BCE, (1) (2) (3) (4) Considerando que o BCE, tal como as instituições das Comunidades Europeias e os Estados-Membros, atribui grande importância à protecção dos interesses finan- ceiros das Comunidades e aos esforços desenvolvidos para combater a fraude e outras actividades ilegais lesivas dos interesses financeiros das Comunidades; Considerando que, de acordo com o parecer do Conselho Europeu de Colónia de Junho de 1999, é extremamente vantajoso que o BCE se associe aos esforços das instituições das Comunidades Europeias tendentes a combater a fraude na União Europeia; Considerando que o BCE atribui grande importância à protecção dos seus próprios interesses financeiros e aos esforços desenvolvidos para combater a fraude e outras actividades ilegais lesivas dos seus interesses financeiros; Considerando que devem ser utilizados todos os meios disponíveis para atingir esses objectivos, nomeadamente no âmbito dos deveres de investigação cometidos ao BCE e às instituições das Comunidades Europeias, tendo em conta, no entanto, a actual atribuição e equilíbrio de competências entre o BCE e as instituições das Comuni- dades Europeias; (5) Considerando que as instituições das Comunidades Europeias e os Estados-Membros tomaram medidas no sentido de combater a fraude e outras actividades ilegais (6) (7) (8) (9) lesivas dos interesses financeiros das Comunidades, com base no artigo 280. o do Tratado que institui a Comuni- dade Europeia (a seguir designado por «Tratado»); Considerando que a independêncía do BCE está prevista no Tratado e nos estatutos; que, em conformidade com o Tratado e os estatutos, o BCE dispõe de orçamento próprio e de recursos financeiros independentes dos das Comunidades Europeias; Considerando que, no intuito de reforçar os meios disponíveis para combater a fraude, a Comissão criou entre os seus departamentos, mediante a Decisão 1999/ /352/CE, CECA, Euratom (1), um Organismo Europeu de Luta Antifraude (OLAF) com a missão de realizar inqué- ritos administrativos naquele sentido; Considerando que o combate à fraude e a outras activi- dades ilegais lesivas dos interesses financeiros do BCE constitui uma função central da Direcção de Auditoria Interna e que essa direcção é responsável pela realização no BCE de inquéritos administrativos naquele sentido; Considerando que o combate à fraude e a outras activi- dades ilegais dentro do BCE deve ser entendido como abrangendo actividades semelhantes às definidas pelo Parlamento Europeu, pelo Conselho da União Europeia e pela Comissão das Comunidades Europeias no primeiro parágrafo do n. o 1 do Acordo interinstitucional de 25 de Maio de 1999 (2); (10) Considerando que, para promover e reforçar a indepen- dência das actividades da Direcção de Auditoria Interna em matéria de combate à fraude e a outras actividades ilegais lesivas dos interesses financeiros do BCE, a refe- sobre essas matérias rida direcção deve responder perante um Comité Antifraude composto por personali- dades independentes altamente qualificadas, (1) JO L 136 de 31. 5. 1999, p. 20. (2) JO L 136 de 31. 5. 1999, p. 15. 13. 11. 1999 PT Jornal Oficial das Comunidades Europeias L 291/37 DECIDE: Artigo 1. o Comité Antifraude do BCE É criado um Comité Antifraude destinado a reforçar a 1. independência das actividades da Direcção de Auditoria Interna, assim como das informações prestadas, no âmbito da prevenção e detecção da fraude e de outras actividades ilegais lesivas dos interesses financeiros do BCE e reforçar também o cumprimento das respectivas normas internas e/ou códigos de conduta do BCE. A composição e as competências do Comité Antifraude são estabelecidas no presente artigo. O Comité Antifraude é responsável pelo acompanha- 2. mento regular e pelo correcto desenrolar das actividades refe- ridas no n. o 1 exercidas no BCE pela Direcção de Auditoria Interna. 3. O Comité Antifraude é constituído por três personali- dades externas independentes com qualificações especiais rele- vantes para as actividades do Comité Antifraude. Tais persona- lidades serão nomeadas por decisão do Conselho do BCE, a publicar no Jornal Oficial das Comunidades Europeias. 4. O mandato dos membros do Comité Antifraude é de três anos, renovável apenas uma vez. No final do mandato, os membros manter-se-ão em funções até à sua recondução ou substituição, consoante o caso. 5.

The Office has not yet introduced a system of analytical accounts (see the Special Annual Report concerning the financial year 1997, paragraph 1. 5 (3)), without which the level of its fees can neither be evaluated nor, perhaps, adjusted where necessary. 1. This report is addressed to the Budget Committee of the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market in conformity with Article 137(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 40/94 (1). Other observations 2. The Court has examined the financial statements of the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market for the financial year ended 31 December 1998. In accordance with Article 119(2c) of Council Regulation (EC) No 40/94, the budget was implemented under the responsibility of the President of the Office. This respon- sibility included the drawing-up and presentation of the financial statements (2) in accordance with the internal financial provisions, as provided for in Article 138 of Regulation (EC) No 40/94. The Court of Auditors is required under Article 248 of the Treaty establishing the European Community to audit these accounts. 3. The Court performed its audit in accordance with its audit policies and standards. These have been adapted from generally accepted international auditing standards to reflect the specific characteristics of the Community context. The Court carried out such tests of the accounting records and other audit procedures as it deemed necessary in the circumstances. By means of this audit, the Court obtained a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed below. 4. This examination has enabled the Court to obtain reasonable assurance that the annual accounts for the financial year ended 31 December 1998 are reliable and that the underlying transactions, taken as a whole, are legal and regular. MAIN OBSERVATIONS ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BUDGET OF THE OFFICE FOR HARMONISATION IN THE INTER- NAL MARKET FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEM- BER 1998 Accounting software 7. Payments (ECU 42,1 million) amounted to only 61 % of the final appropriations for the financial year (ECU 68,5 million after the adoption of the second supplementary and amending budget) and 78 % of commitments; 15 % (ECU 10,5 million) of these appropriations were automatically carried over to the 1999 finan- cial year and 23 % of the final appropriations (ECU 15,9 million) were cancelled. 8. The Office had to adopt two amending budgets, firstly because the time required for the trade mark registration procedure was underestimated and, secondly, in order to amend the accounting procedures in accordance with the observations in the Court(cid:146)s Special Annual Report concerning the financial year 1997 (see paragraph 1. 7) and, thirdly, because difficulties arose in respect of the recruitment of staff (Title 1). 9. Most of the appropriations carried over concern Titles II and III of the budget and, in particular, purchases of immovable prop- erty (ECU 3 million carried over because work fell two months behind schedule and because of a delay in the issuing of invoices for certain items of work), special projects entrusted to third par- ties (ECU 1,3 million carried over because the implementation of computer projects was spread over two financial years) and research reports (ECU 3,2 million carried over on account of the time required to complete the research work (three months), to which the period of payment (one month) must be added). 10. With regard to the appropriations carried over from the financial year 1997 (ECU 26,2 million), it was found that 5 % of these (ECU 1,4 million) had to be cancelled. A large percentage (62 %) of these cancellations related to expenditure on publica- tions and research reports where the costs had been greatly over- estimated or the services for which provision had been made were not supplied. 11. To comply with Article 2, Administrative Decision 98, the Office should have depreciated its assets (installations and furni- ture, movable equipment and computer equipment) during 1998. 5. The Office continued to keep its budgetary accounts by means of a spreadsheet rather than accounting software. Since 1 Janu- ary 1999 the Office has been using new and appropriate budget- ary software. The Office(cid:146)s activities (1) OJ L 11, 14. 1. 1994, p. 1. (2) As required under Article 137, paragraph 1, of Regulation (EC) No 40/94, the accounts of the Office(cid:146)s total revenue and expenditure for the financial year 1998 were drawn up on 3 March 1999 and for- warded to the Office(cid:146)s Management Board, the European Parliament, the Commission and the Court of Auditors. These accounts were received by the Court on 30 March 1999. A summarised version of these financial statements is presented in the tables attached to this report. 12. Since 1996 the Office has received approximately 100 000 applications for the registration of individual trade marks, of which 93 % have successfully completed the first stage of the pro- cedure but only 59 % have been forwarded for publication. The 100 000 applications mentioned above led to objections on the (3) OJ C 406, 28. 12. 1998, p. 55. 22. 12. 1999 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 372/63 part of the Office in 11 % of cases and to registration in 24 %. On account of the fact that the number of registrations of Commu- nity trade marks considerably exceeded estimates and because of the build-up of delays at each stage of the procedure, certain changes in the internal organisation of the Office were needed. The Office should make a greater effort to reduce the periods of time generally taken to complete the procedures. The statistics available show that the shortest and longest time required between filing for registration and registration is 383 and 821 days respec- tively, the average being 600 days. This report was adopted by the Court of Auditors in Luxembourg at the Court meeting of 22 and 23 September 1999. For the Court of Auditors Jan O.

The deed of donation specifies that this land now belongs to the Office. If this land is sold to a third party the proceeds obtained by the Office must be paid to the donor. Exclusive sale of the land may also be made to the latter for the sum of ESP 1. In the event of sale to the donor, the Spanish authorities have undertaken to purchase the buildings put up by the OHIM.

The situation was rectified in 1998 and this led, in particular, to a reduction in the volume of the appropriations carried forward and an increase in the out-turn for the financial year.

Analytical accounts ECU 10,5 million (20 %) in appropriations was carried over, for the reasons set out in Point 9. ECU 15,9 million was cancelled at the end of the financial year, for the following reasons: In 1997 (the first full financial year of Community trade-mark management activities), the OHIM started to set up an analytical accounting system. After developing the model to be followed, and entering the statistical data available, tests were carried out in 1998. In 1999, the human resources necessary for the operation of the system were put in place. It should be borne in mind that not all the stages of the Office(cid:146)s activity as regards Community trade-mark management have yet stabilised. While the processing of new trade-mark applications has indeed stabilised, other sectors, such as oppositions, cancel- lations and the boards of appeal, have not yet reached their (cid:145)cruis- ing speed(cid:146). A minimum degree of stability, in terms of both activ- ity and the organisation in place, is necessary in order to obtain significant results in analytical accounting. It is therefore neces- sary to wait until the year 2000 before usable results from the analytical accounting system can be obtained. Finally, it would seem premature to consider evaluating, and a fortiori adjusting, the level of fees before the year 2000. Furthermore, it should be pointed out that until the OHIM enters into a stable phase of self-financing (from the year 2006, when Community trade-mark renewals will begin), any notion of adjust- ing the level of fees would seem to be premature. Indeed, the fees have not been fixed independently of each other, but are part of a whole. The opposition fee, for example, has been fixed at a suf- ficiently low level to enable as many proprietors of prior rights as possible to make claims, even though it does not fully cover all the expenditure incurred by the Office in carrying out such a pro- cedure. 7. The final appropriations for the financial year may be broken down as follows: Final appropriations: ECU 68,5 million (1) Appropriations used: ECU 52,6 million Of which appropriations can- celled: ECU 15,9 million Of which appropriations car- ried over: ECU 10,5 million (cid:151) delays in the construction of the permanent seat (amounting to ECU 6,2 million), (cid:151) the impact of the large, and unexpected, increase in Commu- nity trade-mark applications, which inevitably led to conges- tion in the services and thus to a backlog in the Office(cid:146)s activi- ties; some recruitment operations therefore had to be postponed (amounting to ECU 1. 9 million), (cid:151) the non-utilisation of appropriations for future expenditure under Title 10 (2)(ECU 6,6 million); these appropriations cor- respond to the surplus carried over as revenue to the follow- ing financial year. 8. During 1997, the number of new Community trade-mark applications rose from 22 000 to 30 000 per year. The first SAB was adopted on 10 March 1998 and contained the neces- sary adjustments to reflect the development in the Office(cid:146)s activities since the budget for 1998 was approved, in Febru- ary 1997. 10. The appropriations carried over from the 1997 financial year and cancelled at the end of the 1998 financial year amount to ECU 1,4 million, and include: (cid:151) expenditure on the publication and postal charges of the Community Trade Marks Bulletin (ECU 0,5 million and 0,3, respectively). This expenditure proved to have been overestimated in terms of volume, due to procedural delays, and in terms of prices, since the rates charged by the Office(cid:146)s partners were lower than expected, (1) The Office(cid:146)s budget was drawn up and implemented in ecu until 1 January 1999, the date of the changeover to the euro. (2) This title sets out in Chapter 100, its only chapter, the appropriations intended to (cid:145)finance future operating or investment expenditure the nature of which is certain(cid:146). 22. 12. 1999 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 372/67 (cid:151) expenditure on the search reports drawn up by the national offices, a proportion of which had still not been supplied at the end of the financial year, amounting to ECU 0,3 million. 11. An administrative decision on the depreciation of immov- able assets was adopted by the Office in November 1998, which barely left enough time for it to be implemented before the end of the financial year. The reserve for depreciation has been in operation since the beginning of the 1999 financial year
