Amendment 7 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 6
Paragraph 6
6. Notes with regret that the Court’s report found that the results, which were presented to the Joint Undertaking’s Governing Board in December 2016, indicated an expected additional funding requirement of EUR 5 400 000 000 to that already committed for the construction phase after 2020, which represents an increase of 82 % in relation to the approved EUR 6 600 000 000 budget; reiterates the fact that the amount of EUR 6 600 000 000 adopted by the Council in 2010 serves now as a ceiling for the Joint Undertaking’s spending up to 2020; recognises that the additional funding required to complete the ITER project must involve future Multiannual Financial Framework commitments;
Amendment 10 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7
Paragraph 7
7. Highlights the fact that in addition to the construction phase, the Joint Undertaking will have to contribute to the ITER operational phase after 2035 and to the subsequent ITER deactivation and decommissioning phases; takes note that the contribution to the deactivation and the decommissioning phases were estimated at EUR 95 540 000 and EUR 180 200 000; is seriously concerned that the contribution for the operational phase has not yet been estimated; calls on the Joint Undertaking to estimate the cost of the operational phase as soon as possible;
Amendment 12 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8
Paragraph 8
8. Stresses that on 14 June 2017, the Commission issued a communication entitled ‘EU contribution to a reformed ITER project’, in which it suggested that a contingency of up to 24 months in terms of schedule and 10 to 20 % in terms of budget would be appropriate; notes in addition that the measures taken to respect the EUR 6 600 000 000 capped budget included postponing the procurement and installation of all components not essential to First Plasma; draws attention to the factis very concerned that while positive steps have been taken to improve the management and control of the ITER project construction phase, there remains an ongoing risk of further cost increases and delays in project implementation compared to the new proposed baseline; notes that the recognition of such risks must be appreciated by the Joint Undertaking and indeed all partiecalls on the Joint Undertaking and indeed all parties of the project to take appropriate action to identify and analyse all potential risks and set up an Action Plan that will also include a further analysis ofn the projecimpact of Brexit;

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 16
Paragraph 16
16. Notes that in 2017, the Joint Undertaking’s governing board continued implementing the public procurement part of the anti-fraud strategy; notes that the Joint Undertaking adopted a checklist based in its own set of procurement fraud risk indicators, i.e., red flags, considered a prerequisite to the development of the Anti-fraud IT tool, having developed them internally; acknowledges that the use of the checklist is now being introduced in the internal processes of the Joint Undertaking together with other procurement changes; notes that the Ethics and Integrity sessions were given to newcomers;
