Abstract

Autorica je u Završnom radu opisala ESI fondove i pojasnila njihovo značenje u okviru Operativnog programa Konkurentnost i kohezija 2014. – 2020. za Republiku Hrvatsku, s naglaskom na upravljačku strukturu tijela u sustavu. Nakon uvodnog prikaza povijesnog konteksta Europske unije, a zatim fondova EU s naglaskom na Europski fond za regionalni razvoj te Kohezijski fond, dan je poseban osvrt na fondove i posljedice pandemije COVID-19. Osobito je važno istaknuti funkcioniranje provedbe projekata u kontekstu presjeka upravljačke strukture tijela s naglaskom na posrednička tijela razine 1 i 2, kao i pregled općeg izvješća stanja administrativnih kapaciteta OPKK koje je provelo, odnosno provodi, Ministarstvo regionalnog razvoja i fondova EU 2020. te 2021. godine. Za potrebe ovog rada provedene su dvije ankete, namijenjene korisnicima bespovratnih sredstava u okviru OPKK te posredničkim tijelima razine 1 i 2. Budući da su kroz anketu zaprimljeni pozitivni odgovori korisnika, može se zaključiti kako prevladava općenito zadovoljstvo fondovima EU i upravljačkom strukturom. S druge pak strane, službenici u posredničkim tijelima smatraju kako bi efikasnost bila veća ako bi se određene procedure i tijela u sustavu ukinuli, što daje prostor za razmišljanje i poboljšanje u novom programskom razdoblju 2021. – 2027.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this paper is to describe the European Structural and Investment Funds of the operational programme „Competitiveness and cohesion“ for the period 2014-2020, and the management structure of bodies in the OPCC system, as well as their role in the system. This paper is divided into several chapters. The first chapter deals with the historical context of the EU. The second chapter describes the European Regional Development Fund and the Cohesion Fund whilst taking into account the fact that the OPCC activities are financed from these two funds. Since we have been living in the era of COVID-19 pandemic for over a year now, it is inevitable that one chapter reflects the consequences the pandemic has had on the implementation of EU funded projects. This paper also sums up the management structure of intermediate bodies in the OPCC system as well as the 2020/2021 report by the Ministry of Regional Development and EU Funds on the EU funds administrative capacity. Two surveys have been conducted for the purposes of this paper. One of the surveys was intended for the beneficiaries, and the other for the intermediate bodies in the OPCC programme. Since most of the collected answers were positive, one can conclude that the general opinion on this matter is satisfactory. On the other hand, officers of intermediate bodies believe that a lack of procedures, as well as the abolishment of certain bodies, would improve the efficiency. This fact should be taken into consideration during the new 2021-2027 programming period.
