Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Annual Management and Performance Report for the EU Budget - Financial year 2019 is the Commission's main contribution to the annual discharge procedure by which the European Parliament and the Council scrutinise the implementation of the EU budget. The report covers both the performance of the programmes financed by the EU budget and the Commission's management of the EU budget in the reporting year. This report is part of the broader integrated financial and accountability reporting package, which also includes the annual accounts, a long-term forecast of future inflows and outflows covering the next 5 years, the report on internal audits and the report on the follow-up to the discharge. Section 1 provides a high-level overview of the performance of the EU budget in 2019, focusing on the key programmes. This section presents the latest information, from a variety of sources including programme monitoring, evaluations and audits, on the results achieved with the EU budget up until the end of 2019. This section is structured according to the headings of the current multiannual financial framework. This reporting is supplemented by more detailed programme-by-programme performance information in the 'Programme performance overview' (Annex 1). The overview summarises the key performance messages from the programme statements accompanying the 2021 draft budget proposal. Section 2, on internal control and financial management, reports on the steps the Commission took in 2019 to ensure the sound financial management of the EU budget. Based on the control results reported by the Commission departments accountable for managing the budget, it confirms that the EU budget is well protected. Through this report the Commission takes overall political responsibility for the management of the EU budget.

Book excerpt: The Commission ensures a high level of transparency and accountability to its stakeholders. Last year, in the "EU audit in brief" related to the 2018 Annual Report of the European Court of Auditors (ECA), the ECA President Klaus-Heiner Lehne had indeed noted that "Thanks to the improvements in its financial management, the European Union now meets high standards of accountability and transparency when it comes to spending public money. We need to build further on this success in improving the EU's financial management in order to ensure that our citizens can maintain their trust in the EU and its Member States. In particular, we should jointly focus our scrutiny on areas where particular shortcomings persist and risks are particularly high". Every year the Commission reports annually on the implementation of the EU budget in the Integrated Financial and Accountability Reporting package that includes Annual Management and Performance Report.
Download or read book The EU Political System After the 2019 European Elections written by Olivier Costa and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the impact of the May 2019 European elections as well as the Covid-19 pandemic on the EU’s politics, institutions, and policies. Special attention is paid to the impact of these events on the different political forces as well as on the Union’s institutional balance, its priorities and the reform of its budget and policies. Because of the many post-electoral uncertainties, the book also takes into account how the relations between the Parliament, the European Council and the new Commission have developed. Furthermore, it analyses the capacity of the von der Leyen Commission to implement an ambitious programme, especially in the context of an unfolding pandemic. The objective of this book is to study the 2019 electoral sequence (parliamentary elections, appointment of EU institutions leaders, investiture of the Commission, new legislative programme) and determine its influence on the main institutional and political challenges for the 2019-2024 legislature. In other words, the volume deals with the question of who holds the EU’s leadership after the 2019 elections and how it handles the 2020-2021 pandemic.

Download or read book Economic and Budgetary Outlook for the European Union 2019 written by Alessandro D'Alfonso and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This EPRS study, the third in an annual series, provides an overview of the economic and budgetary situation in the EU and beyond. It summarises the main economic indicators in the Union and euro area, and their two-year trends. The figures show that growth was moderate in 2018, at 2.1 %, although this is expected to deteriorate slightly in the coming months, given the poorer global outlook than a year ago. That said, unemployment is at a post-crisis low, and is expected to improve further, given positive labour market conditions. The study explains the annual EU budget, providing an overview of its headings for 2019, with the total amounting to €165.8 billion (or around 1 % of EU gross national income). The budget focuses on priorities that include stimulating investment, growth and research, the creation of new jobs – especially for young people – and addressing migration and security challenges. The wider budgetary framework – the multiannual financial framework (MFF) – is also analysed in the study, with key decisions on spending for the 2021-2027 period due to be taken during 2019. In this year's edition, the special 'economic focus' offers a bird's eye view of SMEs and SME policy in Europe, and of various recent EU-level initiatives in this field. The EU budget devotes particular attention to SMEs, given their central role in the European economy and in job creation. The EU needs to continue devoting efforts to improving European SMEs' access to finance, since despite recent improvements, they are still too heavily reliant on debt financing which puts them at risk in a downturn.
Download or read book EU Budget for the Future written by and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Commission presented its proposals for a new and modern long-term budget, tightly geared to the Union's priorities, in May and June 2018. This was followed by an intensive period of technical work in both the European Parliament and the Council. The European Council in December 2018 called on the incoming Romanian Presidency of the Council to 'develop an orientation for the next stage of negotiations, with a view to achieving an agreement in the European Council in autumn 2019'. Since then the work led by the Romanian Presidency has helped to pinpoint the key issues that will need to be decided by Leaders by the autumn. An agreement is within reach - but there remains much work to do. An ambitious and balanced agreement on the future framework will only be possible with strong political leadership from the European Council. The European Council on 20-21 June can be a crucial milestone in this process. It should launch a new phase of political negotiations with an increasing focus on financial and other strategic issues.

Download or read book EU Budget for the Future written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A swift political agreement on a new, modern EU budget will be essential to demonstrate that the Union is ready to deliver on the positive political agenda outlined in Bratislava and Rome. This would show that, following the withdrawal of the United Kingdom in 2019, the Europe of 27 is unified, has a clear sense of purpose and direction, and is ready to deliver. It would give the best possible chance for new programmes to hit the ground running on 1 January 2021, turning political objectives into quick results on the ground. An early agreement is not only politically desirable. It is also a practical imperative.
