Inspector Clouseau Reports !

EC INTERIM REPORT ABOUT BULGARIA, ROMANIA DUE IN FEBRUARY
The European Commission's interim report in connection with mechanisms for collaboration and control of internal affairs and justice systems in Bulgaria and Romania will be issued in February, according to reports.
The exact date has not been penciled in yet, the Bulgarian News Agency announced, citing well informed sources from the European Commission.
The reports will certainly be published after February 9, when the new Barroso II Commission is expected to be invested, the sources said.
This will be the first European Commission report to assess the measures undertaken by the new center-right government, which swept the elections in July and made an attempt to shake off the country's reputation for rampant graft and crime.
Bulgaria and Romania are still not doing enough to tackle corruption and organized crime, so they will have to accept European Union monitoring for at least another year, the EU's executive said in its latest annual report on the duo, released on July 22 last year.
Romania and Bulgaria joined the European Union on January 1, 2007 but owing to shortcomings in justice reform and dealing with corruption the commission has kept an eye on developments through a special monitoring mechanism.
Any failure to redress the problems means that surveillance will continue, a process which resulted in Bulgaria being deprived of hundreds of millions of euros in potential funds.
