Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) refused to sign off in October 2010 the budget of the European Police College (CEPOL) for the financial year 2008. Parliament has so far granted budget discharges to all other EU agencies but finds it unacceptable that the Police College, established as an agency in 2006, has yet to meet good standards of administration.
