Paragraph 2
2. Notes that the level of committed appropriations carried over for Title III (operational expenditure) was at EUR 2 300 000 (45 % of expenditure), compared to EUR 4 700 000 (66 % of expenditure) in 2014; acknowledges that those carryovers were predominantly related to specific contracts for the Authority’s multi-annual IT programme supporting the implementation of Solvency II and to contracts signed late in the year; moreover acknowledges from the Authority that the carryover appropriations were to be reduced from 2016 onwards to a satisfactory level with the advanced implementation of the Authority’s IT Programme; points outnotes that carryovers aremay often be partly or fully justified by the multiannual nature of agencies’ operational programmes and do not necessarily indicate weaknesses in budget planning and implementation nor are they always at odds with the budgetary principle of annuality, in particular if they are planned in advance by the Authority and communicated to the Court;
