Amendment 9 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 13 a (new)
Paragraph 13 a (new)
13 a. Notes with concern that during the period from 2018 to 2021 the average annual rate of interim staff for all Joint Undertakings remained high at around 11 % of statutory staff; recalls that the high level of contractual staff tends to increase significantly the Joint Undertaking’s staff turnover rate and further destabilises the staffing situation; emphasises, moreover, that the use of interim staff should remain a temporary solution or it could negatively affect the Joint Undertaking’s overall performance, such as the retention of key competences, unclear accountability channels, possible judicial disputes and lower staff efficiency;
Amendment 16 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 22
Paragraph 22
22. Notes, from the Annual Activity Report, because of persistent systemic errors in declared personnel costs, particularly on the part of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and new beneficiaries (who are more error-prone than other beneficiaries), the Joint Undertaking had already strengthened its internal control to address the increased risk regarding SMEs and new beneficiaries. The results of these measures were evident for the first time in 2021 and contributed to significantly lowering the representative error rate from SMEs and new beneficiaries in the last 2 years; welcomes the positive results in terms of reduced error rates and the willingness of the Joint Undertaking to continue with the reinforced risk-based controls in 2022, with aid of the reinforced monitoring tool available in the corporate COMPASS/SyGMa system for H2020 grants management.
Amendment 17 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 22 a (new)
Paragraph 22 a (new)
22 a. Emphasises furthermore that streamlining of the H2020 rules for the declaration of personnel costs and wider use of simplified cost options is a precondition to stabilise error rates to below materiality level; welcomes that in 2022 all Joint Undertakings have started implementing actions for error rate reductions in line with the action proposed by the Court including exploring the options of simplified forms of costs such as unit costs, lump sums and flat rates.
