The Commission's 2022 annual management and performance report for the EU budget

The annual management and performance report (AMPR) is the Commission's high-level performance report on the EU budget, and part of the Commission's annual financial reporting package. The legal deadlines involved limit what we can address comprehensively in time for the annual discharge procedure and consequently this review focuses on Volume I of the 2022 AMPR. Our review notes that overall the Commission had good procedures for its preparation. We also highlight that the AMPR reflects the fact that the Commission does not share the same conclusion as we do on specific expenditure areas, and that there was scope to improve the quality of performance data.
