Answer given by Mr Patten on behalf of the Commission

(26 July 2001)

In 1997 the Stockholm Institute for Transitional Economics was awarded a contract (following a tender
procedure) for assistance to the Russia-Europe Centre for Economic Policy. The contract is funded from the
budget line B7-520 ((cid:145)Assistance to partner States in eastern Europe and central Asia(cid:146)) and it has a total
value of € 2 149 824. A further contract was awarded in 1999 with total value of € 2 548 668. Lastly,
a contract for € 123 244 was awarded last year.

In 2000, the Institute also received a payment of € 440 700 from budget line B6-641.

Support from budget line B7-520 for activities in eastern Europe and central Asia finances a very wide
variety of projects and schemes, and over 500 contracts with consultants, experts, authorities and
institutions are involved for the period covered by the Stockholm Institute contract.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-1456/01

by Daniel Hannan (PPE-DE) to the Commission

(17 May 2001)

Subject: Seals

What support has the Commission given to projects concerned with the Mediterranean monk seal?

Answer given by Mrs Wallstr(cid:246)m on behalf of the Commission

(16 July 2001)

Under the Habitats directive, Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the conservation of natural
habitats and of wild fauna and flora (1) Member States have to take the requisite measures to establish
a system of strict protection in order to ensure a favourable status of conservation of the monk seal
(Monachus monachus). Moreover, they must designate sites which will form part of the Natura 2000
ecological network.

The Commission is certainly aware that the Community has particular responsibility for this priority
species, in view of the proportion of the natural range which falls within the territory of the Community.

Projects regarding this species may be submitted for Community cofinancing, according to relevant
existing rules (a list for some of the projects or studies directly related to the Mediterranean area is sent
direct to the Honourable Member and to Parliament(cid:146)s Secretariat). Upon the outcomes of these projects,
the Commission tries to build new approaches aimed at improving the status of conservation of the
species.
