On 17-18 February 2025, CONT Members will consider the draft reports on the financial year 2023 discharge to the European Commission and EU Agencies. The draft reports will be presented by the respective Rapporteurs, emphasising what they consider to be the main points for the 2023 discharge cycle.
The discharge procedure is the Parliament’s final approval of how the EU budget for a specific year has been implemented. In the draft reports presented during the meeting, the CONT Committee scrutinises how the Commission and EU Agencies are implementing the EU budget and prepares the Parliament’s discharge decisions. Parliament considers the reports prepared by the Budgetary Control Committee, taking into account the Council’s recommendations, and decides to grant, postpone or refuse a discharge.
