The latest revision covers not only the financial rules applicable to the general budget of the EU, but also corresponding amendments to the sectoral financial rules contained in 15 legislative acts on multiannual programmes. This revision simplifies the rules, improves transparency and introduces better controls and accountability for a more efficient use of public money. There is also an increased focus on results, meant to benefit EU citizens, SMEs and NGOs. Finally, this revision also provides a solid basis for preparing the next generation of EU programmes. Interinstitutional negotiations started in June last year and an agreement was found in late 2017. The negotiations were led by Ingeborg Grässle (EPP, DE) and Richard Ashworth (EPP, UK). The agreed text is scheduled to be adopted by plenary by the summer.
