Summary: A key milestone in building a stronger EU health security framework was the adoption in 2013 of a decision on serious cross-border threats to health. The EU health and research framework programmes also support actions related to this framework. The audit found that the decision on serious cross-border threats to health indeed represents an important step for dealing better with such threats in the EU, but that significant weaknesses affect the implementation of the health security framework. More needs to be done to address these weaknesses for the Union to get full benefit from the established mechanisms. The Court therefore makes a number of recommendations mainly aiming at accelerating and strengthening the implementation. |
