Paragraph 5 a (new)
5a. Regrets the significant delays in procuring essential equipment and services for missions under the CSDP and the resulting negative effect on the missions' functioning; recalls that the Court of Auditors in its 2012 Special Report on the EU support for Kosovo denounced this inefficiency and concluded that the procurement rules laid down in the financial regulation "are not designed for CSDP missions where fast and flexible responses are sometimes necessary"; urges the Commission to consider a revision of the relevant rules.
