Report of the European Court of Auditors on the Commission's Impact Assessment

This blog has reported on the preliminary findings of the ECA. Now the final report (79 pages) was published on 28 September.  This document gives a thorough update on current issues and makes a number of reasonable suggestions for improvement. The two most interesting parts are:
  •   the two page executive summary:
  •  the response of the Commission which implicitly gives a list of outstanding issues, including: the recent strengthening of the effect of IAB decisions, the question of IAs on EP substantial amendments, consultation on draft IAs, the use of quantifiable indicators, and many others.
