Notes that, according to the Court’s report, the carry-overs of committed appropriations for Title II (administrative expenditure) were high at EUR 3 500 000 (39 %), compared to EUR 4 200 000 (41 %) in 2015; notes that these carry-overs mainly concerned the Europol’s headquarters, which will only be invoiced by the host state in 2017 (EUR 2 000 000); acknowledges the fact that Europol will continue its efforts to ensure efficient and compliant budget implementation, in particular concerning carry-overs in relation to administrative expenditure; notes that due to the work regarding the Europol’s headquarters performed under the authority of the host state as an external party, the handling of building-related costs is also expected to spread across financial years in future; notes that this is due to the inherent administrative set-up whereby Europol receives the related invoices after the host state has liaised with contractors at national level;
