lpv:translated text	"Madam President, those of us in the Socialist Group in the European Parliament too are, of course, unhappy about the fact that it is now getting on for many years in a row that the Court of Auditors has not been able wholeheartedly to approve the EU accounts and to give a positive statement of assurance as to their reliability. We should like to begin by, of course, emphasising this but, at the same time, also saying that, although there are many points of criticism, we are working in a balanced, progressive and proactive way with a view, of course, to solving the problems. It is not only a question of criticising. It is, first and foremost, about discovering what specific type of problems we are facing and how we can solve them. We think there is good reason to commend the Court of Auditors on its detailed report. We in the Socialist Group have on many occasions asked for further details. We have sought a higher degree of differentiation in relation to the various types of error. This has been provided, but the situation is still not good enough. We might have wished, for example, for more of a distinction to have been made between what is, factually speaking, fraud and what are, factually speaking, errors. Praise is due to the Commission for introducing a new accounting system: the integrated financial control system for agricultural expenditure. There are quite a few areas in which progress has been made, but there are, of course, also grounds for criticism, especially in relation to internal policies, where the Court of Auditors’ report shows that things have in fact deteriorated since last year. We shall, of course, use the discharge procedure to look more closely at these matters, to demand some answers and, presumably, also to look ahead and come up with some better proposed solutions. We in the Socialist Group earnestly call on Commissioner Kallas and the Court of Auditors to continue their cooperation with a view to solving these problems in the best way possible."@en1
