lpv:translated text	"This report, by Ms Macovei, concerns discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of the European Environment Agency (EEA) for the financial year 2010. The EEA, which was created in 1993, currently has 32 members: the 27 EU Member States, and also Norway, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Iceland and Turkey. Its goal is to ‘help the Community and member countries make informed decisions about improving the environment’. The Court of Auditors stated in its report on the accounts of the EEA that ‘it has obtained reasonable assurance that the annual accounts for the financial year 2010 are reliable and that the underlying transactions are legal and regular’. I welcome the high level of implementation of the budget in terms of committed appropriations (100%) and payment appropriations (90.75%), and while I understand the need for the agency to improve its performance, particularly by including objectives and measurable indicators, I am voting against this report, as I believe that, as has been done in relation to other agencies, the Executive Director of the EEA should also be granted discharge in respect of the implementation of the agency’s budget for 2010, in line with the opinion of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety."@en1
