We have given further consideration to the following on the
basis of further information from the Government. We maintain
our opinion[2]
that it raises questions of political importance, and now recommend
its further consideration by European Standing Committee B, together
with (17582) - the Court of Auditors Statement of Assurance concerning
activities financed from the general Budget for the financial
year 1995:-

Annual Report of the Court of Auditors concerning the financial year 1995, together with the replies of the institutions.

Legal base:

Article 188c.

Background
1.1 When we considered
this Annual Report last week, we concluded that it raised matters
of political importance, but deferred a decision on a debate until
we had received the Court's Statement of Assurance on the Community's
1995 accounts and the Government's Explanatory Memorandum on it.
Further consideration
1.2 We have now received
these documents and report on them in paragraph 2. We have recommended
a debate and consider that the Court of Auditors Annual Report
for 1995 should be debated at the same time.
