"Our role and duty as the European Parliament is to maintain the principle of sound budgetary management of financial assistance granted by the EU, via the Community budget, from European taxpayers’ money. The need to abide by this principle should apply equally to aid granted to the Member States of the Union and to third countries, especially those facing the whole spectrum of humanitarian crisis. This being so, I support the call on the European Commission to further improve the efficacy and effectiveness of the ECHO control, monitoring and supervision system. As far as efficacy and effectiveness during the implementation of humanitarian aid managed by ECHO are concerned, I endorse the recommendations formulated in the report that the Commission should continue in its efforts to create a better coordinated and more coherent needs assessment system. Finally, I agree that the European Parliament should have access to the final audit reports of ECHO partners on the implementation of humanitarian actions. It is only with transparency and accountability that we can ensure that the money from the Community budget is spent correctly and effectively."@en1
