Press Release: Commission adopts roadmap for reform of agencies

The Commission has adopted a roadmap that will help to deliver improved efficiency and accountability, greater coherence and transparency, and more balanced governance to the EU's decentralised agencies. The document puts flesh on the bones of the 'Common Approach' – the first ever political agreement on EU agencies, reached by the Commission, Council and European Parliament in July 2012 after three years of analysis and negotiations.
