This report presents the outcomes of the
functional review of Romania's agricultural
administration. Given the sectoral and territorial relevance
of its regulatory domain, Romania s Agricultural and Rural
Development Administration is a key administrative body
undergoing this Functional Review. The review will examine
whether the policy goals and objectives of the Ministry of
Agriculture and Rural Development (MADR) and its agencies
are clearly defined in measurable and achievable terms;
whether the management systems, policies, staffing, and
internal organizational structure are appropriate to meet
objectives; and whether and to what extent factors external
to the institutions impede the ability to meet objectives
fully. The review analyzes factors promoting and/or limiting
the efficiency and effectiveness of the agricultural and
rural policy delivery in Romania. It aims at providing
practical recommendations on: enhanced strategic
coordination of policies and programs in the agricultural
and rural policy domain; improved management and
implementation of CAP support measures, to decrease risk of
delayed payments to beneficiaries and low, ineffective and
inefficient absorption of EU funds; realizing the full
potential of MADR and its agencies through, for instance,
better delineation of functions and better delegation of
responsibilities within and among the relevant institutions;
and approaches to improving the quality of public service
delivery to beneficiaries of the Government's
agricultural and rural programs. The review focuses on
assessing both the current situation and future needs. It is
broadly based on the following thematic areas: strategic
framework, organizational structure and systems, budget and
financial management, human resource management.
