Points out that for the protection of EU financial interests the Commission, at the request of the European Parliament in 1997, introduced an early warning system (EWS) with five graded levels of warning to assist Commission services in identifying entities presenting financial and other risks; notes that this system covers both "centralised management" (contracts and grants managed directly by the Commission services) and "decentralised management" (managed by third countries); however, EWS does not yet cover EU funds managed in partnership with Member States ("shared management", mainly the common agricultural policy and the stru ...[+++]ctural funds), nor funds delegated to international organisations ("joint management");
