On 10 February 2022, Members of the Committees on Foreign Affairs (AFET) and Budgetary Control (CONT) will hear Juhan Parts, Member of the European Court of Auditors, on the findings of the Special Report on EU support for the rule of law in the Western Balkans in 2014-2020.
This audit report finds that the EU support lacks impact on justice and human rights and fails to effectively address major flaws related to the judicial independence, state capture and corruption. Members will discuss the findings of the report as well as the recommendations to the Commission and the EEAS on strengthening conditionality, monitoring and support to independent civil society and media in the region.
