Official Journal C 065 , 15/03/1990 P. 0009 - 0009
Commission communication on the method of application of Article 92 (3) (a) to regional aid

(90/C 163/05)

Change in application of method

In a previous communication (1) the Commission has already described its method for the application of Article 92 (3) (a) to national regional aid. The basic geographical unit used in the analysis is the (NUTS) level III region. However, for the purposes of determining eligibility as an Article 92 (3) (a) region, reference is made to the situation of the majority of level III regions in the larger, level II region. The reasons for this approach are explained under point I (3) of the communication.

The Commission has decided to maintain the level III region as the appropriate geographical unit for aid assessment purposes. However, for determining eligibility under Article 92 (3) (a), reference will now be made to the situation of the level II region as a whole in which the level III region is located. Furthermore, when regions are assessed by using the per capita GDP/PPS indicator, the corresponding index will be averaged over a minimum period of three years based on the last three years, where possible.

COUNCIL RESOLUTION of 6 May 1994 on a Community strategy, for integrated coastal-zone management (94/C 135/02)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

RECALLS its resolution of 25 February 1992 on the future Community policy concerning the European coastal zone (1);

UNDERLINES once more the need for a Community strategy for the integrated management and development of coastal zones, based on the principles of sustainability and sound ecological and environmental practice;

RECALLS that such a strategy is also provided for under the fifth Community programme of policy and action in relation to the environment and sustainable development (2), which singles out coastal zone management and conservation as a priority matter, and EMPHASIZES in this connection that this task should be undertaken in a spirit of responsibility-sharing;

WELCOMES the progress already made by several Member States at national level towards the implementation of an integrated coastal zone management strategy;

RECOGNIZES also the contribution that a number of existing Community measures, including the implementation of Council Directive 79/409/EEC of 2 April 1979 on the conservation of wild birds (3), Council Directive 85/337/EEC of 27 June 1985 on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment (4) and Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild flora and fauna (5) together with the use of certain appropriate financial instruments, could make to such a strategy;

RENEWS its invitation to the Commission to propose within six months at the latest, with a view to strengthening coordinated action in this area and in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, a Community strategy for the integrated management of the whole of the Community coastline that, while taking account of the specific problems and potential of the diffrent zones, will provide a framework for its conservation and sustainable use;

UNDERTAKES to examine such a proposal as soon as it is submitted as a matter of priority and with a view to introducing possible additional Community action;

INVITES the Member States to strengthen their own efforts with a view to further increasing the protection of coastal zones throughout the Community.

COUNCIL CONCLUSIONS of 13 December 1993 on self-sufficiency in blood in the European Community (94/C 15/03)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to Directive 89/381/EEC (1) which provides in particular for special provisions for medicinal products derived from human blood or human plasma,

Taking into account the European Parliament resolution on self-sufficiency in, and safety of, blood and its derivatives in the European Community,

Taking into account work carried out by the Council of Europe,

APPRECIATES the Commission communication on blood self-sufficiency in the Community;

WELCOMES the recommendations made in that communication;

REAFFIRMS the need to achieve self-sufficiency in blood and its derivatives in the Member States and the Community, in particular through cooperation between Member States, in accordance with the principle of voluntary, unpaid blood donations;

AGREES on the need periodically to update, where appropriate in liaison with the Council of Europe, the studies carried out by the Community regarding blood donations and the availability and use of blood and its derivatives, and on the need to examine the possible consequences for self-sufficiency in blood and derived products in the Community of the emergence of substitute medicinal products;

COUNCIL CONCLUSIONS of 17 June 1994 concerning children and culture (94/C 235/02)

THE COUNCIL,

Considering the emphasis given in the conclusions of the Council and the Ministers for Cultural Affairs, meeting within the Council, of 12 November 1992 to the regular examination of issues influencing the cultural field;

Considering the principle of having regard to cultural aspects in Community action under other provisions of the Treaty, as laid down in Article 128 (4) of the Treaty establishing the European Community;

Considering that culture is present from kindergarten to university level, in all of the European countries' educational systems in various ways and with various choices, reflecting the specific features of those systems as well as the cultural diversity that forms one of the foundations of Europe;

Whereas children's encounter with culture from a very early age permits the blossoming of characteristic qualities of childhood such as curiosity, spontaneity and inventiveness; whereas such an encounter as well as the promotion of children's artistic and cultural awareness may be particularly beneficial for the harmonious development of their personality; whereas energies usually absorbed by the passive acceptance of messages from a 'culture of pictures' could as a result be channelled in more creative directions;

Considering that cultural awareness and artistic education also serve to consolidate equality and social responsibility and to provide better opportunities for children and adolescents, beginning from their formative years and leading towards their social integration;

Recognizing that, given the role played by school in children's everyday life, their contact with culture will take place largely within the educational system, but considering that only an all-round approach to children's life will ensure them real access to culture;

Considering that the quest for a European dimension, both in the existing curriculum and in the exchanges of experience that might be organized, would be a way of bringing out more clearly Europe's common cultural heritage.

EXPRESSES its satisfaction that a debate on children and culture has begun within the European Union,

VOICES its wish to see that debate continue at European level,

CALLS UPON the Commission to give the matter further consideration and bear this aspect in mind in the context of the communication on cultural action which it has undertaken to submit to the Council,

POINTS TO the value of exchanging experience and information in this field, to enable appropriate activities to be devised.
DECLARATION BY THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, THE COUNCIL AND THE COMMISSION

of 6 March 1995

on the incorporation of financial provisions into legislative acts

(95/C 293/03)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, THE COUNCIL AND THE COMMISSION,

Whereas the Joint Declaration of 30 June 1982 (1) states: 'In order that the full importance of the budget procedure may be preserved, the fixing of maximum amounts by regulation must be avoided, as must the entry in the budget of amounts in excess of what can actually be expended`;

Whereas, according to a statement annexed to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 29 October 1993 (2), the budgetary procedure provisions should be reviewed 'at the Intergovernmental Conference scheduled for 1996 in order to achieve interinstitutional cooperation on a partnership basis`,

HEREBY DECLARE AS FOLLOWS:

1. Legislative acts concerning multiannual programmes adopted under the codecision procedure

These acts shall contain a provision in which the legislative authority shall lay down the financial framework for the programme for its entire duration.

That amount shall constitute the principal point of reference for the budgetary authority during the annual budgetary procedure.

The budgetary authority and the Commission, when drawing up its preliminary draft budget (PDB), undertake not to depart from this amount unless new, objective, long-term circumstances arise for which explicit and precise reasons are given.

2. Legislative acts concerning multiannual programmes not subject to the codecision procedure

These acts shall not contain an 'amount deemed necessary`.

Should the Council wish to include a financial reference, this shall be taken as illustrating the will of the legislative authority and shall not affect the powers of the budgetary authority as defined by the Treaty. This provision will be mentioned in all acts which include such a financial reference.

If the amount concerned has been the subject of an agreement pursuant to the conciliation procedure provided for in the Joint Declaration of 4 March 1975 (3), it will be considered a reference amount within the meaning of point 1 of the present Declaration.

3. The financial statement provided for in Article 3 of the Financial Regulation shall reflect in financial terms the objectives of the proposed programme and include a schedule covering the duration of the programme. It shall be revised, where necessary, when the PDB is drawn up, taking account of the extent of implementation of the programme. The revised statement shall be forwarded to the budgetary authority together with the PDB.
