In order to streamline the decision-making process within the Agency, an efficient and effective governance structure should be introduced. To that end, the Member States and the Commission should be represented on a Management Board vested with the necessary powers, including the power to establish the budget and approve the single programming document. The Management Board should give general and strategic orientations for the Agency’s activities and be more closely involved in the monitoring of the Agency’s activities, with a view to reinforcing supervision on administrative and budgetary matters. The Management Board should be able to establish advisory groups or working groups with the task of preparing the meetings of the Management Board in an appropriate manner and supporting its decision-making process, as well as the follow-up and the implementation of its decisions. The Agency should be led by an Executive Director.
