Summary:

Governance comprises the arrangements put in place to ensure that the intended outcomes for stakeholders are defined and achieved. Good governance is not just about relationships, it is about achieving results, and providing decision-makers with tools to do their job.

In several areas, the Commission diverges from, or does not meet in full best practice set out in standards or put in place by the international and public bodies we selected as benchmarks. To continue to address the key risks the Commission will need to further strengthen the governance structure across the institution.
