Has it checked how the amounts have actually been used and whether the proposed measures have been successfully implemented?

As for 1999, the sum of 6 468 272 has been earmarked for the funding of projects. The above-mentioned documents will provide the Honourable Member with details of the funding granted for projects year by year. Apart from the projects, the Commission has also funded other activities under the fourth programme. Specifically, it has provided the following sums for the preparation of the annual report on equal opportunities for men and women: 614 232 in 1996; 558 197 in 1997; and598 788 in 1998.

The use of funding under the action programme on equal opportunities for men and women is continuously monitored by the Commission. Each project must submit an interim and a final report before any payments are made.
