Is concerned about the findings of the Court of Auditors as regards the lack of transparency in recruitment procedures and the intervention of the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF), which has opened an inquiry (OF/2009/0370); draws attention to the Union's Employment Guidelines and in particular Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation with regard to selection criteria and recruitment conditions; expects all Union Agencies to adhere at a minimum to those Guidelines and calls on the Foundation to set an example ...[+++] by implementing fair, transparent and comprehensive recruitment procedures in the future;

A third important point is that the Council, acting by a qualified majority, may each year draw up employment guidelines in the light of which the employment policies of the Member States may be judged and recommendations made to individual Member States.
