on staff salaries has been submitted for study
by a Task Force comprising the States, airspace

has already delivered its report and its recommendations

INCREASED READABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY
OF THE AGENCY ANNUAL ACCOUNTS
The Agency Annual Accounts have been significantly
simplified and as a result they are more
focussed, and the quality of the information contained
has improved (financial performance
statements and consolidated Accounts, a new
cash-flow statement, etc.). As is the normal practice
in most public and private companies, the
Annual Accounts also contain the Audit
Certificate for the first time.
DISCONTINUATION OF THE PRACTICE OF
CAPITALISATION OF REVENUE EXPENDITURE
In 2003, the Agency aimed to obtain the Member
States’ commitment to reinforce the link
between the yearly charges through amortisation
of the cost-base and the debt service payments
with a view to maintaining the alignment
between the total residual value of the Agency’s
fixed assets and the total debt.
As a further step in this process of increased
transparency, the Agency initiated in late 2003 a
study on the applicability to the Agency
accounting of the International Accounting
Standards (IAS), to align itself with the obligations
imposed on air navigation service
providers under the EC Single European Sky
Regulations. In parallel, the Agency continued
to maintain close relations with the financial
and accounting services of the European
Commission to follow up the developments taking
place there. It is the Agency’s intention to
submit, in due course, a proposal for the consideration
of the Standing Committee on
Finance/Provisional Council.
INCREASING ATTENTION TO CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE
In line with best practice, the Agency Annual
Accounts now include a statement on the corporate
governance of the Organisation and
Agency.
The Agency is also paying increased attention to
risk management and giving due care to implementing
the Audit Board Report in this respect.A
relevant statement on risk management will be
included in the 2003 Annual Accounts.
In addition, the Agency is making steady
progress in its journey to excellence, through the
implementation of the EFQM model across all its
units. Business Plans are produced for all
Business and Support Units, throughout the
Agency. A Business Plan for the Agency is being
developed and will be linked to the Agency
Strategy, currently under discussion by the
Provisional Council.
ACTIONS TO IMPROVE COST-EFFICIENCY
The Agency has continued to reduce the portion
of its total costs which is dedicated to support
activities (overhead), thus increasing the
resources devoted to the delivery of its main
services and programmes.
The Agency has carried out a review of its support
processes in search of synergies and consolidation
of activities throughout the various units.
Some tangible results have been obtained in
financial management Agency-wide, as a result
of the Efficiency Initiative adopted by the
Director General.
The Agency has published a new full set of rules
for improved management of its external support
(time-based contractors), which aim to
ensure the achievement of value-for-money.
Considerable work has been done in the analysis
of potential for the outsourcing of services.
A LONG-TERM SOLUTION TO THE
OUTSTANDING ISSUE OF THE PENSION
SCHEME
In coordination with Member States and staff,
the Agency has put forward a Global Solution on
Pensions, which includes, among other measures,
the creation of a Pension Fund and an
agreement on the issue of national taxation on
pensions. The proposal, which has already been
presented to the Provisional Council, is now
heading towards its final stages of formal
approval.
SEARCH FOR ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF
FINANCING
The Agency has continued to work on studies to
analyse the possibility of financing a number of
its services by a method different from the traditional
contributions.
An initial study containing a categorisation in
clusters of the various Agency services was presented
and endorsed by the ACG.
Further analyses were performed on the issue of
the CFMU Alternative Financing. As an intermediate
step, and in order to increase the cost transparency
to the stakeholders, a new Part in the
Budget (Part IX) has been created and is now
