We are proud to announce that we have been awarded a new contract by the European Commission (DG JUST) to support the Impact Assessment for the revision of the Regulation on the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO Regulation), the Regulation on the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF Regulation) and the Directive on the protection the Union’s financial interests (PIF Directive).
The objective of the Study is to support the development of a joint Impact Assessment for the revision of three key building blocks of the EU Anti-Fraud Architecture. The Study will look at both cross-cutting elements relevant for the revision of the EPPO and OLAF Regulations and the PIF Directive that should be considered jointly, and elements that are relevant to the three pieces of legislation separately.
Spark, as part of a consortium led by CSES, with Asterisk and Tetra Tech, will contribute to this Study by focusing on the aspects relevant to the OLAF Regulation and its interlinks with the two other EU instruments.
After working on a Study to support a PIF Directive implementation report, a Study on the compliance assessment of Member States’ legislations with the EPPO Regulation, and the Studies supporting the evaluations of the OLAF Regulation, the EPPO Regulation and the PIF Directive, we are proud to continue our work with the European Commission towards a stronger EU framework on the fight against fraud and the protection of the Union’s financial interests.
