Council Conclusions

of 17 December 2003

on CAP information policy

(2004/C 34/01)

Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EC) No 814/2000 provides a sound legal framework for CAP information work.

(2) The experience of the past three years has been largely positive in terms of the quality of the measures financed or co-financed, and future evaluation of the impact of the measures will make it possible to see how useful the policy has been.

(3) Experience indicates that there is no reason at this stage to modify the two facets of the information policy, namely the measures proposed by third parties for cofinancing by the EAGGF and the measures taken on the Commission's initiative, which receive 100 % EAGGF financing.

(4) The funds available have not been fully utilised and the administrative complexity and limited scope of the measures have been cited as the main reasons for this underutilisation of budget appropriations.

(5) Efforts to strike a better balance between the various types of beneficiary organisation should be continued.

(6) Dialogue between the Commission and the Member States on information policy should be stepped up.

(7) The Commission is shortly to make an appraisal to identify any measures that should be taken to improve the cost/effectiveness of the system.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AGREED THAT:

- Member States would make suggestions, particularly regarding administrative simplification, with a view to making more effective use of available funds,

- the Commission should be invited to propose that Regulation (EC) No 814/2000 be adapted in order to improve the effectiveness of measures to develop CAP information policy and, in particular, to make provision for technical assistance, at the request and on behalf of the Commission, for the administration of subsidies financed from its budget,

- the measures financed by the Commission should lead to a better targeting of aid and greater overall cost/effectiveness of information policy.
