Amendment 31 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 23
Paragraph 23
23. Considers that OLAF’s work can be made still more effective by ensuring careful and detailed planning of investigations, promoting the use of SMART objectives and RACER indicators for the investigations themselves, improving cooperation and data exchange between OLAF and national judicial authorities from the start of the investigative process and introducing a ‘core tasks’ policy for OLAF, under which small-scale fraud would be handled by other bodies while recurring small-scale fraud which results in large sums from irregularities due to structural problems may be of interest for OLAF investigations; calls on OLAF therefore to outline in its next report the progress that has been made in this respect and to say to what extent account has been taken thereof in the OLAF operational manual that is to be published in the near future;
