A.
INTRODUCTION AND FINANCING OF THE GENERAL BUDGET

INTRODUCTION

The general budget
of the European Union is the instrument which sets out and authorises the
total amount of revenue and expenditure deemed necessary for the European
Union and the European Atomic Energy Community for each year.

The
budget is established and implemented in compliance with the principles of
unity, budgetary accuracy, annuality, equilibrium, unit of account, universality,
specification, sound financial management and transparency.

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The principle of unity and the principle of budgetary accuracy mean that all revenue and expenditure of the Union when it is charged to the budget must be incorporated in a single document. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The principle of annuality means that the budget is adopted for one budgetary year at a time and that both commitment and payment appropriations for the current budgetary year must, in principle, be used in the course of the year. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The principle of equilibrium means that forecasts of revenue for the budgetary year must be equal to payment appropriations for that year: borrowing to cover any budget deficit which may arise is not compatible with the own resources system and will not be authorised. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | In accordance with the principle of unit of account, the budget is drawn up and implemented in euros and the accounts shall be presented in euros. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The principle of universality means that total revenue is to cover total payment appropriations with the exception of a limited number of revenue items which are assigned to particular items of expenditure. Revenue and expenditure are entered in full in the budget without any adjustment against each other. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The principle of specification means that each appropriation must have a given purpose and be assigned to a specific objective in order to prevent any confusion between appropriations. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The principle of sound financial management is defined by reference to the principles of economy, efficiency and effectiveness. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The budget is established in compliance with the principle of transparency, ensuring sound information on the implementation of the budget and the accounts. |

The budget presents
appropriations and resources by purpose (activity-based budgeting), with a
view to enhancing transparency in the management of the budget with reference
to the objectives of sound financial management and in particular efficiency
and effectiveness.

The
expenditure authorised by the present budget totals EUR 141 909 398 849 in
commitment appropriations and EUR 126 527 133 762 in
payment appropriations, representing a growth rate of 0,25 % and of
2,90 % respectively by comparison with the 2010 budget.

Budgetary
revenue totals EUR 126 527 133 762. The uniform
rate of call for the VAT resource is 0,30 % (except for Austria, Germany,
the Netherlands and Sweden for which the rate of call has been fixed at 0,225 %,
0,15 %, 0,10 % and 0,10 % respectively) whilst that
for the GNI resource is 0,7538 %. Traditional own resources (customs
duties and sugar levies) account for 13,26 % of the financing of the
budget for 2011. The VAT resource accounts for 10,90 % and the GNI
resource for 74,72 %. Other revenue for this financial year is estimated
at EUR 1 421 368 232.

The
own resources needed to finance the 2011 budget account for 1,00 %
of the total GNI, thus falling below the ceiling of 1,23 % of GNI calculated
using the method set out in Article 3(1) of Council Decision 2007/436/EC,
Euratom of 7 June 2007 on the system
of the European Communities’ own resources ([OJ L 163, 23.6.2007, p. 17](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2007:163:TOC)).

The tables below
set out step by step the method used to calculate the financing of the 2011
budget.

Remarks

The
common organisation of the market in the sugar sector provided that sugar,
isoglucose and inulin syrup producers had to pay basic and B production levies.
These levies were intended to cover market support expenditure. At present
amounts entered under this article are a consequence of the revision of past
established levies. Levies for the marketing years 2007/2008 and following
years are entered under Article 1 1 7 of this chapter as a ‘production charge’.

Figures
are net of collection costs.

Remarks

The
GNI-based resource is an ‘additional’ resource, providing
the revenue required to cover expenditure in excess of the amount yielded
by traditional own resources, VAT-based payments and other revenue in any
particular year. By implication, the GNI-based resource ensures that the general
budget of the European Union is always balanced ex ante.

The GNI call
rate is determined by the additional revenue needed to finance the budgeted
expenditure not covered by the other resources (VAT-based payments, traditional
own resources and other revenue). Thus a call rate is applied to the GNI of
each of the Member States.

The
rate to be applied to the Member States’ gross national income for
this financial year is 0,7538 %.

Article 15
of the Financial Regulation states that the balance from each financial year,
whether surplus or deficit, is entered as revenue or expenditure in the budget
of the subsequent financial year.

The
relevant estimates of such revenue or expenditure are entered in the budget
during the budgetary procedure and, where appropriate, in a letter of amendment
submitted pursuant to Article 34 of the Financial Regulation. They are
drawn up in accordance with the principles set out in Article 15 of Regulation
(EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000.

After
the closure of the accounts for each financial year, any discrepancy in relation
to the estimates is entered in the budget for the following financial year
through an amending budget that must be presented by the Commission within
15 days following the submission of the provisional accounts.

A
deficit is entered in Article 27 02 01 of the statement of
expenditure of Section III ‘Commission’.

Remarks

Article 3
of the Protocol on the position of Denmark and Article 5 of the Protocol
on the position of the United Kingdom and Ireland, annexed to the Treaty on
European Union and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, grant
full exemption to these Member States from supporting the financial consequences
of some specific policies in the area of freedom, security and justice, with
the exception of the related administrative costs. They can therefore obtain
an adjustment to the own resources paid for each year in which they do not
participate.

Each
Member State's contribution to the adjustment mechanism is calculated by applying
to the budget expenditure resulting from this operation or policy the scale
of the aggregate gross national income and its components from the preceding
year, supplied by the Member States in accordance with Article 2(2) of
Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1287/2003 of 15 July
2003 on the harmonisation of gross national income at market prices
([OJ L 181,

Remarks

Decision
2003/76/EC stipulates that the Commission is entrusted with winding up the
financial operations of the European Coal and Steel Community which are still
in progress upon expiry of the ECSC Treaty.

Pursuant
to Article 4 of that Decision, net revenue from the investment of available
assets will constitute revenue in the general budget of the European Union
earmarked for a specific purpose, namely financing research projects in sectors
related to the coal and steel industry by the Research Fund for Coal and Steel.

The net
revenue available for financing research projects in year n +2 appears
in the balance sheet of the ECSC in liquidation for year n, and after the
liquidation process has been completed will appear as assets in the balance
sheet of the Coal and Steel Research Fund. This financing mechanism took effect
in 2003. Revenue coming from 2009 will be used for research in 2011. In order
to reduce as far as possible the fluctuations that movements in the financial
markets could cause in the financing of research, a smoothing arrangement
is applied. The amount of net revenue expected to be available for research
in 2011 comes to EUR 60 929 750.

In
accordance with Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, 72,8 % of the
fund’s appropriations will be for the steel-related sector and 27,2 %
for the coal-related sector.

In
accordance with Article 18 and Article 160(1a) of the Financial
Regulation, revenue will be used to provide additional appropriations under
Chapter 08 23 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’.

| Financial year 2011 | Financial year 2010 | Financial year 2009 |
| p.m. | p.m. | 0,— |

Remarks

This
article is intended to record capital repayments and interest payments on
special loans and risk capital granted from the appropriations in Chapters
22 02 and 19 08 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’ to Mediterranean third
countries.

It
also comprises capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and
risk capital granted to certain Mediterranean Member States which, however,
represent a very small proportion of the overall amount. These loans/risk
capital were granted at a time those countries had not yet joined the Union.

The revenue
obtained normally exceeds the amounts forecast in the budget because of the
interest payments on special loans which may still be disbursed during the
preceding financial year as well as during the current financial year. The
interest on special loans and risk capital is charged from the moment the
loans are disbursed; interest on special loans is paid in six-monthly instalments
and interest on risk capital generally in annual instalments.

New item

This preparatory
action should last two years, with a total budget of EUR 1 000 000,
and should enable the Commission, with the assistance of external experts,
to prepare the setting up of an EU Mediation Support Group (MSG) within the
EEAS, in accordance with the ‘EU
Concept on Strengthening EU Mediation and Dialogue Capacities’, by:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |

| — | engaging in knowledge management, including lessons-learned processes, the identification of best practices and development of guidelines, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | preparing for the establishment of a roster of deployable experts in mediation and dialogue processes, taking into consideration the ongoing work of the United Nations and other organisations in setting up such rosters. |

The
preparatory action should be seen as a first step in strengthening, and providing
sustainable support for, mediation initiatives by first increasing the Union's
internal capabilities without excluding support in the form of external and
contractual expertise. The action should be followed up by an evaluation,
a reflection process and, possibly, decisions on formally establishing an
MSG within the EEAS.

Remarks

Council Decision 2003/76/EC stipulates that the Commission is entrusted with winding up the financial operations of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) which are still in progress upon expiry of the ECSC Treaty.

Pursuant to Article 4 of that Decision, net revenue from the investment of available assets will constitute revenue in the general budget of the European Union earmarked for a specific purpose, namely financing research projects in sectors related to the coal and steel industry by the Research Fund for Coal and Steel.

The net revenue available for financing research projects in year n + 2 appears in the balance sheet of the ECSC in liquidation for year n, and after the liquidation process has been completed will appear as assets in the balance sheet of the Coal and Steel Research Fund. This financing mechanism took effect in 2003. Revenue coming from 2009 will be used for research in 2011. In order to reduce as far as possible the fluctuations that movements in the financial markets could cause in the financing of research, a smoothing arrangement is applied. The amount of net revenue expected to be available for research in 2011 comes to EUR 60 929 750.

In accordance with Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, 72,8 % of the fund’s appropriations will be for the steel-related sector and 27,2 % for the coal-related sector.

In accordance with Article 18 and Article 160(1a) of the Financial Regulation, revenue will be used to provide additional appropriations under Chapter 08 23 of the statement of expenditure in this section.

Legal basis

Council Decision 2003/76/EC of 1 February 2003 establishing the measures necessary for the implementation of the Protocol, annexed to the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the financial consequences of the expiry of the ECSC Treaty and on the Research Fund for Coal and Steel ([OJ L 29, 5.2.2003, p. 22](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2003:029:TOC)).

In the case of Member States whose currency is not the euro, the rate shall be equal to the rate applied on the first day of the month in question by the Central Banks for their main refinancing operations, increased by two percentage points, or, for the Member States for which the Central Bank rate is not available, the most equivalent rate applied on the first day of the month in question on the Member State's money market, increased by two percentage points. This rate shall be increased by 0,25 of a percentage point for each month of delay. The increased rate shall be applied to the entire period of delay.

Remarks

This article is intended to record capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted from the appropriations in Chapters 22 02 and 19 08 of the statement of expenditure in this section to Mediterranean third countries.

It also comprises capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted to certain Mediterranean Member States which, however, represent a very small proportion of the overall amount. These loans/risk capital were granted at a time the countries had not yet joined the Union.

The revenue obtained normally exceeds the amounts forecast in the budget because of the interest payments on special loans which may still be disbursed during the preceding financial year as well as during the current financial year. The interest on special loans and risk capital is charged from the moment the loans are disbursed; interest on special loans is paid in 6-monthly instalments and interest on risk capital generally in annual instalments.

Remarks

This exceptional assistance aims to ease financial constraints on certain third countries experiencing macroeconomic difficulties characterised by balance of payment deficits and/or serious budgetary imbalances.

It is directly linked to the implementation by the recipient countries of macroeconomic stabilisation and structural adjustment measures. Union action generally complements that of the International Monetary Fund, coordinated with other bilateral donors.

The Commission informs the budgetary authority twice a year of the macroeconomic situation of the beneficiary countries and reports extensively on the implementation of this assistance on a yearly basis.

Appropriations under this article will also be used to cover financial aid for the reconstruction in Georgia of the areas affected by the conflict with Russia. The actions should be primarily geared to the macroeconomic stabilisation of the country. The total financial allocation for the aid was decided at an international donors’ conference in 2008.

New item

Article 122(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union foresees the possibility of granting Union financial assistance to a Member State in difficulties or seriously threatened with severe difficulties caused by exceptional occurrences beyond its control.

The guarantee provided by the Union is for borrowings raised on the capital markets or from financial institutions.

According to Article 2(2) of Council Regulation No 407/2010 of 11 May 2010, the outstanding amount of loans and credit lines granted to Member States under this stabilisation mechanism shall be limited to the margin available under the Union's own resources for payment appropriations.

This item constitutes the structure for the guarantee provided by the Union. It will enable the Commission to service the debt should debtors default.

In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. Article 12 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom on the system of the European Communities own resources ([OJ L 130, 31.5.2000, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2000:130:TOC)) shall apply.

A specific annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section gives a summary of borrowing-and-lending operations guaranteed by the general budget, including debt management, in respect of capital and interest.

Remarks

Part of this appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on Union/Community financial instruments implemented in the framework of the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (2007 to 2013) (CIP), and to facilitate the access of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to finance.

Part of this appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on the following measures:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | promoting the availability in Europe of mechanisms for securing access to credit for SMEs, such as credit guarantee consortia, and analysing credit market issues where necessary, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | supporting credit applications to financial institutions submitted by such consortia of SMEs, inter alia through the provision of secondary guarantees by the European Investment Fund (EIF), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | concluding agreements with financial institutions on subsidised loans to credit guarantee consortia. |

Poor access to appropriate forms of finance is frequently quoted as a main barrier to entrepreneurship and enterprise innovation. This problem may be exacerbated by new accounting standards which will make banks more sensitive to risk and lead to a rating culture. The CIP addresses persistent recognised market gaps leading to poor access to equity, venture capital and loans for SMEs through Union financial instruments operated on behalf of the Commission by the EIF, the Union’s specialised institution for providing venture capital and guarantee instruments for SMEs.

Independent evaluations of the predecessor programme ‘Multiannual Programme for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship’ identified the market-based approach and the implementation via the EIF of these instruments as a best practice. They are therefore continued and adapted in the CIP programme.

Union financial instruments facilitate access to finance by SMEs. The High Growth and Innovative SME Facility (GIF) shares risks and rewards with private equity investors providing important leverage for the supply of equity to innovative companies.

GIF targets innovative SMEs in their early stages and in the expansion phase, leveraging ‘follow-on’ capital to help them bring their products and services to the market. Particular attention is paid to SMEs active in the field of eco-innovation.

The SME Guarantee Facility (SMEG) continues to provide counter-guarantees or co-guarantees to guarantee schemes operating in participating countries, and direct guarantees to financial intermediaries. It aims at addressing market failures experienced by SMEs with growth potential in accessing: (i) loans (or loan substitutes such as leasing); (ii) microcredit and (iii) equity or quasi-equity. A new securitisation window (iv) mobilises additional debt financing for SMEs under appropriate risk-sharing arrangements with the targeted institutions.

A Capacity Building Scheme (CBS) was intended to support the capacity of financial intermediaries to focus on additional investment and technology aspects. This instrument has, however, shown no response from the market. As a consequence, the budget initially reserved for CBS has been made available to the GIF to support mainly eco-innovation and technology transfer.

The contributions from the EFTA States [(1)](#ntr1-L_2011068EN.02000101-E0001) pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on Union/Community financial instruments implemented in the framework of the Multiannual Programme for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship, and in particular for SMEs (MAP) and for facilitating their access to finance. Even though the end of the commitment period has been reached, the facilities have to be operated for several years, in which payments will be needed for investments and in order to honour guarantee obligations. Therefore reporting and monitoring requirements will continue until the end of the facility periods.

In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. In this case, Article 12 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom on the system of the European Communities own resources ([OJ L 130, 31.5.2000, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2000:130:TOC)) shall apply.

Remarks

The aim of this appropriation is to foster the competitiveness of enterprises and in particular small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to promote innovation, including eco-innovation, and to support enterprise and innovation-related economic and administrative reform.

The implemented measures shall be, in particular:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | market replication, projects and other measures to support the take-up of innovation, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | policy analyses, development and coordination with participating countries, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | information sharing, dissemination and awareness raising, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | support to joint actions of Member States or regions, |

and other measures encompassed in the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme.

The Union will provide support to activities such as the Enterprise Europe Network, innovation and entrepreneurship promotion. It will also support eco-innovation projects concerned with the first applications or market replication of innovative or eco-innovative techniques, products or practices of Union relevance which have already been technically demonstrated with success but, owing to residual risk, have not yet significantly penetrated the market. These will be designed to promote their broader utilisation within the participating countries and facilitate their market uptake.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

The proposed action aims at developing and testing innovation support services for European knowledge-based start-up companies which make use of the extended networks of European expatriates in science and business in the Silicon Valley. Young companies shall thus realise faster market access and growth overseas while creating high-value added jobs in Europe. This requires coordinated action of European innovation support providers. The action shall therefore ultimately explore the feasibility of a joint ‘European Innovation Centre’ in an innovation hot spot. This centre shall link official representations (chambers of commerce, consulates and industry representations), innovation support providers for European start-ups with European entrepreneurs and scientists that chose to live and work in the Silicon Valley for better coordinated support to potential high-growth companies.

Target groups

Central to this action is the development and piloting of novel services which facilitate fast growth and access to capital for young knowledge-based companies by combining the networks of European expatriate entrepreneurs and researchers in the Silicon Valley with the services of regional / national innovation support agencies in Europe.

One knowledge based young company from each Member State shall be invited to test the services, to establish own networks in the Silicon Valley ecosystem and to feed-back experience and advice on the future design of such services.

Innovation agencies in the Member States are invited to select the young companies and to accompany the project contributing their expertise in the support of young companies. Agencies with offices in the Silicon Valley shall be invited to contribute to the design and provision of services in particular the provision of office space for the European young companies.

Networks of expatriate entrepreneurs and researchers [(2)](#ntr2-L_2011068EN.02000101-E0002) shall be invited to contribute to the training and networking of European young companies and co-design innovation support services targeted at young knowledge-based companies.

Proposed activities

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (1) | Two workshops or conferences (one in the United States/one in Europe) which bring together European innovation support providers with expatriate scientists or entrepreneurs to further develop an approach for a joint delivery of support to young companies with growth potential. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (2) | An accompanying study evaluating the expectations and experience of knowledge-based young companies as well as of expat networks participating. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (3) | The design and delivery of specific support services for a group of 27 knowledge-based young companies with growth potential from all Member States. These services shall include the organisation of sector specific networking and training events in the Silicon Valley. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (4) | A final conference with stakeholders from the European Parliament, the Commission services, young companies benefitting from pilot action, representatives of the expatriates’ networks and innovation support agencies. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (5) | Specific communication actions related to the action. |

A suitable platform for the proposed action is the PROINNO Europe/Europe INNOVA initiative established by the Directorate-General for Enterprise and Industry to facilitate policy development and joint service provision of regional and national innovation agencies.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

Part of this appropriation may be used to promote environmentally sustainable tourism in the Danube river basin.

Following the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, which gives the Union new competencies in the tourism domain in order to complement Member States’ actions, and the Commission Communication of 30 June 2010 entitled ‘Europe, the world’s No 1 tourist destination — a new political framework for tourism in Europe’ (COM(2010) 352 final) a preparatory action has been launched to prepare the ground for future legislative initiatives to promote new European tourism routes based on European cultural heritage. These routes will take the form of theme-based cross-national tourism products which reflect a common European cultural heritage and local traditions. The Council of Europe and its ‘European Cultural Routes’ need to be supported as well as similar European (cultural routes) initiatives.

To this aim, it is required to better coordinate and cooperate with the Council of Europe in order to benefit from its long-standing experience and, thus, further developing and transforming the European Cultural Routes into comprehensive cross-national touristic packages.

The preparatory action has the following main objectives:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | raising awareness of the contribution of different cultures to a common European culture, through the understanding of Europe's history on the basis of its tangible, intangible and natural heritage; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | promoting the role of cultural tourism as a factor of sustainable economic development, European citizenship and intercultural dialog; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | promoting sustainable and responsible tourism within the Union and neighbouring countries; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | reinforcing the image and profile of Europe as a high-quality destination among European and third-country citizens; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | strengthening the capacity of tourism operators and small enterprises in remote and less known destinations to reach out to new publics, facilitating the exchange of experiences and their networking and clustering efforts; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | stimulating competitiveness and innovation of the tourism industry in the Union. |

02 02 08 03   Preparatory action — Social tourism in Europe

Remarks

Society is facing major change regarding industry and recreation. The advent of new family structures and emergence of single-person households, increased free time, increased life expectancy and population ageing in general, and increasing insecurity for young people, whether or not they are in employment, are all factors profoundly altering the tourism environment. Ensuring universal access to holidays means, at Union level, taking account of the specific features of European society.

The Union must therefore equip itself to realise that objective. One response is based on developing social tourism.

Social tourism is known, firstly, for what it seeks to do: allowing as many people as possible to go on holiday. Accordingly, it aids mobility. Social tourism also has another purpose, however, which, to date, has been inadequately evaluated: regional development — many tourism association facilities are located in the countryside or in highland areas — and local development. Social tourism is therefore the proof that there is indeed an intermediate sector between the ‘leisure market’ and the non-solvent economy. It proves that economic significance is not incompatible with accessibility for the greatest number.

Social desegregation must therefore be combined with local development. In promoting access for groups for which going on holiday has progressively been made a difficult or even impossible undertaking, social tourism strengthens the tourism industry's earnings capacity. It enables off-season tourism to be developed, particularly in regions where tourism is highly seasonal. Accordingly, social tourism encourages the creation of longer-lasting jobs in the tourism sector by making it possible to extend them beyond the tourist season.

Implementing this project (named Calypso) is a genuine opportunity to promote partnerships, spurred on by the Commission, between the public and private sectors and the social economy. Through exchanges between European citizens and, in particular, the creation of synergies, this project makes a very great contribution towards establishing European citizenship. It should be pointed out in this connection that nearly 40 % of all trips for more than four nights are made abroad.

The sector is therefore important in terms both of the economic impact resulting from the number of jobs and of civic resources.

The beneficiaries of this measure could therefore be private firms operating in the tourism sector and carrying out the tasks described above, social tourism associations, works councils, transport firms, local and regional authority tourism associations and solidarity associations, but also commercial operators too.

The measures could involve:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | cataloguing and disseminating measures helping to bring about deseasonalisation as a result of the social policy function of tourism, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | devising arrangements enabling particular target groups (e.g. senior citizens, young people and families in difficult social circumstances) to go on holiday on the basis of accommodation offers by public authorities (national, regional or local), charitable organisations or any not-for-profit association. |

The Calypso 2011 programme objectives are based on the measures identified within the 2009 study (through a call for tender) following the discussions between the Commission, the Member States and the stakeholders during several Calypso meetings in 2010, which are to:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | catalogue the main (most representative) good practices as a means to encourage tourism activity particularly during the off-peak season, thus generating employment opportunities when tourism demand is traditionally low, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | identify the existing measures at European and national level allowing the exchanges of persons from the following target groups: senior citizens, young people, citizens with disabilities and families facing difficult social circumstances, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | examine the difficulties related to such exchanges whilst proposing the most appropriate solutions, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | propose one or several mechanisms in the tourist low season enabling particular target groups (senior citizens, young people, citizens with disabilities and families facing difficult social circumstances) to go on holiday in other Member States/candidate countries on the basis of themed programmes and accommodation offers coordinated by Member States/candidate countries authorities (national, regional or local public authorities), on the basis of initiatives from stakeholders that include municipalities, charitable organisations, parishes, unions, social partners, cooperatives or any not-for-profit association. |

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the progressive operational implementation of Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) services. Some specific atmosphere and marine services having achieved the maturity to obtain operational funding must be further developed within the preparatory action. It is therefore envisaged that the preparatory action will focus on funding activities already initiated, namely an atmosphere service relating to monitoring of air quality and pollutant emissions, and a marine service relating to ice monitoring in the Arctic region. Building on what has been achieved by the theme ‘Space’ of the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities, these services will benefit public health, maritime operations, climate change research and monitoring, as well as development and implementation of public policy relating to these areas.

02 02 12   Pilot project — Facilitating access to insurance by self-employed builders and small building firms so as to stimulate innovation and the promotion of eco-technologies in the European Union

Remarks

The development of energy-saving techniques and renewable energy use is an issue of major importance to the building industry. With 2,5 million firms, a turnover of more than EUR 1 200 billion and a workforce of 12 million people, 9,7 million of whom are waged employees, the building industry generates 10 % of the Union’s GDP. 99 % of building firms are small and medium-sized enterprises (with fewer than 250 employees), which generate 78 % of the industry’s turnover. Increased use of eco-technologies and eco-innovations in the building trade is, however, dependent on a combination of factors, such as additional cost, product availability, consumer demand and skill levels within firms.

Another major problem hampering more widespread use of these new technologies is access to insurance by building firms, particularly the smaller firms which, in Europe, make up more than 90 % of the building industry. Owing in particular to their size and financial base, small firms find it difficult to insure construction or renovation work involving the use of new technologies (solar, photovoltaic, geothermal, etc.). In practice, this acts as a barrier to the spread of eco-technologies by small firms, which account for more than 60 % of production in Europe. The difficulties which self-employed builders and small building firms experience in obtaining insurance covering new eco-technologies is clearly acting as a barrier to more widespread use of those technologies.

The European Union therefore needs to introduce an instrument that will provide effective support for small building firms, which are of central importance to the attainment of the Union’s targets for the use of renewable energy (20 % of gross internal consumption by 2020).

The aim of this project is therefore to create a Union financial instrument that will, over a limited period, make it easier for small building firms to gain access to construction insurance when using eco-technologies in building projects.

The budget heading, which could come under the operational management of the EIF, should be subject to strict conditions for the disbursement of funds for specific insurance companies in order to facilitate the provision of insurance cover to building firms using eco-technologies. The project would therefore be based on the same formula as existing Union schemes to foster the development of small and medium-sized enterprises and innovation (risk capital/loan guarantees).

Small firms would not, of course, receive Union funding directly; instead support would be provided through insurance cover, supplementary insurance cover or a reinsurance scheme. The scheme to facilitate access to construction insurance by small firms could be subject to various provisos, such as:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | only firms below a given size and turnover would be eligible, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | only specific types of work (involving eco-technologies) and specific contracts or projects of a limited size would be covered, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | only limited or flat-rate cover for claims would be provided. |

The building industry is a key partner in the Union's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase renewable energies’ share of overall consumption and is currently playing an active part in the development, use and promotion of eco-technologies (solar, photovoltaic, geothermal, etc.).

However, this process is being hampered by the difficulties experienced by small companies and tradesmen working in the sector in obtaining the insurance cover they require at a price they can afford, owing to wariness on the part of insurers caused by the innovative nature of these technologies and a lack of understanding of the risks they entail.

The market survey initiated in 2008 under the earlier ELIOS project confirmed the complexity of the insurance systems currently in place in the Member Sates and the lack of a common approach to the assessment of the risks involved in using these new technologies.

This pilot project therefore seeks to take this process further by, in tandem to the start made by the Union authorities on establishing consistency between the various insurance systems in place in the Union, as envisaged in the earlier survey, testing out a scheme facilitating access to insurance cover, based on the concept already used in connection with European Investment Bank and European Investment Fund loan guarantee instruments and mutual guarantee instruments for small and medium-sized enterprises. The aim of the project is to demonstrate that it is possible to insure small companies that use eco-technologies at no extra cost.

This test would take the process beyond the comparative study stage into an operational stage leading to the convergence of national systems and to greater allowance being made for the needs of small companies working with eco-technologies.

Remarks

The global economy is witnessing a qualitatively new form of international economic relations resulting in new opportunities for SMEs in an international environment. Some of the reasons for seeking new markets might be:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | local markets are smaller in scope, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | national markets stagnate at certain times, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | access to international markets in pursuing high-growth objectives. |

In the context of the Small Business Act (SBA) providing for business support programmes and transnational research, SMEs should be involved in transnational projects to take advantage of the growth in markets outside the Union. The approach might lead to potential enhancing of the skills and innovative strategies giving a competitive edge to European SMEs. This preparatory action is aimed at testing the involvement of SMEs in such actions and providing the necessary information in order to develop a strategy at a later stage. The preparatory action will involve a detailed feasibility study to assess the market potential and appropriate business support measures for SMEs in key international markets. The study will examine the different options and tools available to better connect European SMEs to these markets, and propose country-specific measures to facilitate access to these markets by European SMEs in the future.

Remarks

New article

The aim of this appropriation is to:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | enable initial operational GMES services, tailored to the needs of users, including public policy-makers and private citizens, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | contribute to the sustainability of the observation infrastructure necessary to enable the GMES services, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | create opportunities for increased private sector usage of information sources, thereby facilitating innovation by value-adding service providers. |

In particular, development of Earth observation-based services plays a key role in enhancing competitiveness and innovation in industries in this sector and in the downstream markets. Sustainable provision of Earth observation-related services in Europe still requires consistent public intervention. This is not only because of market failures in answering diverse public needs but also because the downstream market is a non-mature market relying heavily on public funding and whose development has, until today, been significantly curbed by uncertainties about the affordability and long-term availability of the basic services and the data they build upon. Achievement of the specific objectives outlined above will therefore contribute to growth and job creation in an innovative sector, the downstream segment of which is made up mainly of small and medium-sized enterprises. These services will facilitate access to key data required in policy formulation at local and regional level in fields such as agriculture, including forestry, and water management. For example, they could contribute to improving road network design and maintenance. Ultimately, this will also have an impact on assessing climate change better.

The emergency component is expected to lead to more effective delivery of civil protection services, contributing to avoiding loss of life and mitigating damage to critical economic infrastructure, by allowing better forecasting of the areas subject to environmental risks, access to more timely and accurate mapping services during disasters and better management of a crisis after the event has occurred.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from contributions from third parties entered in Item 6 0 3 3 of the statement of revenue will give rise to the provision of additional appropriations to be entered in this item in accordance with the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

In order to ensure that the rules on competition concerning agreements, decisions of associations of undertakings and restrictive practices (Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union/former Article 81 of the Treaty establishing the European Community), abuses of a dominant position (Article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union/former Article 82 of the Treaty establishing the European Community), aids granted by States (Articles 107 and 108 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union/former Articles 87 and 88 of the EC Treaty establishing the European Community) and concentrations between undertakings (Regulation (EC) No 139/2004) are enforced, the Commission is empowered to take decisions, to conduct investigations and to impose penalties or order recovery.

The Commission’s decisions are subject to review by the Court of Justice of the European Union in accordance with the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.

As a prudential measure, it is appropriate to take into account the possibility of budgetary implications stemming from rulings of the Court of Justice of the European Union.

This appropriation is intended to cover any expenditure arising from damages awarded by the Court of Justice of the European Union to claimants and resulting from legal proceedings against the Commission’s decisions in the field of competition.

Since a reasonable estimate of the financial impact on the general budget cannot be established beforehand, a token entry (‘p.m.’) appears in this article. If necessary, the Commission will propose to make available the appropriations related to actual needs by means of transfers or through a preliminary draft amending budget.

It may also be used to finance measures aiming to enable the social partners to exercise their rights and their duties as regards information, consultation and participation in EU-scale undertakings, especially within the framework of their European work councils and to familiarise the actors represented at company level with Transnational company agreements and strengthen their cooperation within the Union framework.

Moreover this appropriation may be used to promote innovative actions relating to the management of information, consultation and participation, with the view of supporting the anticipation of change and the prevention and resolution of disputes in the context of corporate restructuring, mergers, take-overs and relocation in EU-scale undertakings and EU-scale groups of undertakings.

Remarks

This appropriation is aimed at initiating a ‘Union mobility and integration scheme’ in order to assist migrant workers and thus foster the positive effects of labour mobility within the Union. Particular attention will be paid to facilitating the mobility of vulnerable sections of the population, as called for by the European Parliament in its resolution of 18 December 2008 on the European Job Mobility Action Plan (2007-2010). Such a scheme will help overcome the unfavourable conditions for mobile workers to integrate into the host country, including various social difficulties which they encounter, and help them, possibly, to return to their country of origin. Two lines of action will be tested to that end:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | initiating networks and partnerships of actors working across the main trajectories of intra-Union worker migration, and |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | creating advice structures (one-stop shops) to meet the multiplicity of needs of the most vulnerable Union migrants. |

The scheme will thus support the Member States in developing integration and social inclusion policies in order to address the social difficulties and reap the overall economic and labour market benefits of mobility. The pilot phase of the scheme will also enable stakeholders to scale up their activity and prepare for possible future financing from the European Social Fund.

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | create networks linking public institutions, commercial firms and not-for-profit enterprises capable of taking an innovative approach to governance and the formulation of welfare indicators which can be used to quantify the impact on the target groups. |

The project includes:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | making the business world aware of social responsibilities through support for firms involved in integrating people into the labour market, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | proposals for efficient, effective solutions to the socio-economic problems suffered by each specific area and target group, stemming from cooperation between public authorities, commercial firms and not-for-profit enterprises, |

| — | all legally established businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, to assist with reducing the costs of international hiring that affect mostly smaller companies. |

Eligible jobs:

‘Your first EURES job’ will offer young people apprenticeships, a first work experience or specialised jobs. The scheme will not support situations of job substitution or precarious employment, or in any circumstances be contrary to national labour law.

To be eligible for funding, jobs have also to comply with the following criteria:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | be located in a EURES member country other than the country of origin of the young job seeker (transnational vacancies), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | ensure a work placement for a minimum contractual period of 6 months. |

The following costs will be covered:

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) so as to enable the Union to provide temporary and targeted support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation where these redundancies have a significant adverse impact on the regional or local economy. For applications submitted before 31 December 2011, it may also be used to provide support to workers made redundant as a direct result of the global financial and economic crisis.

The maximum amount of expenditure from the Fund shall be EUR 500 000 000 per year.

The aim of this reserve, in accordance with point 28 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006, is to provide additional temporary support for workers who suffer from the consequences of major structural changes in world trade patterns and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market.

The actions undertaken by the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund should be complementary to those of the European Social Fund without creating double structures.

The methods for entering the appropriations in this reserve and for mobilising the Fund are laid down in point 28 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 and in Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006.

Remarks

New item

This pilot project is intended to establish an exchange programme for young farmers, which would allow for cross-border exchanges of best practice in farm management, in particular in relation to the challenges facing European agriculture, in order to aid in the development of Europe's rural areas.

This programme would provide an invaluable opportunity for young famers to experience at first hand the diverse agricultural realities in the Union by spending time on farms based in a different Member State. This exchange of knowledge and experience among Europe's young farmers would further equip them to meet the demands of European consumers, to contribute to food security and to address other challenges facing European agriculture such as the use of renewable energies, biodiversity loss and carbon storage.

Legal basis

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to set up a pilot project for assessing the actual costs to farmers of complying with Union legislation in the fields of the environment, animal welfare and food safety which goes beyond the standards to which import products are subject. This legislation concerns inter alia the 18 regulations and directives underpinning the cross-compliance system, as well as the standards defined as Good Agricultural and Environmental Condition (GAEC) which is also part of the cross-compliance requirements.

It will be used to conduct a broad study assessing the compliance costs as described above in all Member States, which might differ between Member States and even between regions within Member States because of differing climatic, geological, production, economic and social features. The study should be conducted by a well established scientific institute or a consortium of such institutes.

Legal basis

Pilot project within the meaning of Article 49(6) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure incurred by the Commission for collecting and processing information of all kinds needed for the analysis, definition, promotion, monitoring, evaluation and implementation of the Union’s common transport policy, for all transport modes (inland, air, sea and inland waterways) and for all transport sectors (transport safety, internal market of transport with its implementation rules, optimisation of transport network, passengers rights and protection in all transport modes as well as for all other sectors related to transport). The main endorsed actions and objectives are intended to support the Union’s common transport policy, including extension to third countries, technical assistance for all transport modes and sectors, specific training, definition of rules of transport safety, promotion of the common transport policy including establishment and implementation of trans-European network orientation endorsed by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union as well as strengthening passengers’ rights and protection to all transport modes and to enforce existing Regulations on passenger rights, in particular through awareness-raising activities about the content of those Regulations, targeted at both the transport industry as well as the travelling public.

These activities should promote and support intermodal barrier-free mobility for persons with reduced mobility.

In connection with Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 February 2004 establishing common rules on compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding and of cancellation or long delay of flights, and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 295/91 ([OJ L 46, 17.2.2004, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2004:046:TOC)), the Commission needs to develop additional measures to make enforcement of the Regulation more efficient.

The implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1371/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2007 on rail passengers’ rights and obligations ([OJ L 315, 3.12.2007, p. 14](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2007:315:TOC)) requires specific implementation action due to legal reporting requirements of the Commission and due to the complex interaction of regional, national and international (COTIF) administrative structures involved in the implementation. As an important implementation support measure the Commission will conduct a two year information campaign on passenger rights starting in 2010 and covering all Member States.

These actions and objectives could be supported at different levels (local, regional, national, European and international), for all transport modes and sectors related to transport, as well as in technical, technological, regulatory, informative, environmental, climatic and political fields and for sustainable development.

Air transport has long been one of the sectors in which the consumer authorities receive most complaints in the Union. The increase in the number of commercial transactions performed electronically (using the Internet or a mobile telephone) has resulted in more breaches of European consumer legislation.

One of the main complaints by Union consumers is that there are no effective means of redress at airports themselves, particularly when disputes arise as a result of failure on the part of airlines and other service providers to meet their obligations. The European consumer and air transport authorities therefore need to work together to secure an immediate improvement in passenger support and information facilities at airports and, at the same time, step up co-regulation in the sector.

Part of this appropriation will be used to establish a pilot project to set up an integrated air passenger support system at Union airports, based on a single helpdesk and information system that is shared and maintained by all the stakeholders at European level. This will provide passengers with a guarantee that, whichever Union airport they are in, any complaints or requests for information that they make will be dealt with in the same manner, with support being provided by the local consumer authorities and coordinated through the information networks already in place within the Union.

Article 9b of Regulation (EC) No 1070/2009 amending Regulation (EC) No 550/2004 on the provision of air navigation services in the single European sky provides for the establishment of a functional airspace bloc coordinator and subsequent implementing act.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on the implementation of a programme to promote alternatives to international road haulage, designated ‘Marco Polo II’.

The Marco Polo II programme proposes five kinds of measures to achieve its objectives:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | modal transfer actions to transfer, in the short term, a major share of road traffic to other less saturated transport modes, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | catalyst actions which enable structural market barriers to be overcome through the implementation of new innovative services, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | common learning actions with a view to improving cooperation, sharing know-how and developing knowledge in the logistics industry, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | actions to provide high-quality logistic services based on short sea shipping which will be comparable to motorways and therefore called ‘motorways of the sea’, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | traffic avoidance actions involving an active role for manufacturing industry and logistics systems within one coherent strategy to develop sustainable operations. |

The transport infrastructure networks of the newest Member States are not at this stage in a position to serve the increased post-enlargement trade flows; in such cases intermodal transport solutions constitute the best response and there is thus huge scope for Marco Polo II as a continuation and strengthening of the successful Marco Polo I programme.

The support for commercial action in the market for freight transport services is different from the support given through research and development programmes and the trans-European network programme. Marco Polo II will foster modal shift projects in all segments of the freight market, not only in combined transport.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Part of the appropriation will be used for the revised Marco Polo programme and for a specific inland waterway programme, taking into account its environmental benefits, its specific characteristics and the benefits it will bring to small and medium-sized enterprises.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the establishment and development of the trans-European transport network (TEN-T), which is held to be a key policy for the proper functioning of the internal market and for economic and social cohesion (Articles 170, 171 and 172 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union). This contribution takes the form of co-financing projects of common interest identified in Decision No 661/2010/EU.

The aim is:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to help define projects of common interest, minimising unclear or contradictory provisions relating to declarations of common interest and the binding application of environmental legislation, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to speed up the Member States’ implementation of TEN-T projects of common interest by focusing on existing infrastructure within TEN-T rail projects in the short term, in particular where the implementation of such projects has already started, in order to make the corridors more viable and efficient and without simply waiting for the long-term development of very large projects within these corridors, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to overcome the financial obstacles which may hamper the start-up phase of a project, particularly by means of feasibility studies, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to encourage the participation of private capital in project funding, as well as public/private partnerships, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to ensure better financial arrangements for projects, minimising the use of public funding, thanks to flexible means of intervention, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to select examples of regional trans-border rail connections which have been dismantled or abandoned, with preference going to those which could interconnect with TEN-T. |

Co-financing of the deployment of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) must be a high priority.

Special attention must be paid to cross-border rail projects that contribute to better connections between old and new Member States and the reunification of Europe.

This appropriation is intended to cover a subsidy to the European Environment Agency in Copenhagen. The mission of the Agency is to provide the Union and the Member States with objective, reliable and comparable information on the environment at European level, thus enabling them to take the requisite measures to protect the environment, to assess the results of such measures and to inform the public.

The EEA Strategy for the period 2009-2013 adopted by the Management Board on 26 November 2008 is built on three main activities:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | continuing to support the information needs set down in Union and international environmental legislation and especially the Sixth Environment Action Programme, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | providing more timely assessments on how and why the environment is changing and whether environmental policies, including the Sixth Environment Action Programme, the European Union Sustainable Development Strategy and those in related areas have been effective, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | improving the coordination and dissemination of environmental data and knowledge across Europe. |

These activities are addressed through four project areas:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | environmental themes, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | cross-cutting themes, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | integrated environmental assessment, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to fund a project which will develop and establish (1) a complementary participatory coastal communication system and (2) a cooperative coastal risk protection and management system for Member States in the Baltic Sea region and in particular the Baltic States themselves, whose 50 years under occupation excluded them from normal development processes, as a result of which there is a disparity in terms of development with older Member States. Sustainable coastal development (including integrated applications) is to be actively re-enhanced and non-traditional innovations explored and fleshed out, tested and disseminated not only in relation to established implementation methods, i.e. not only vertically and horizontally across management levels, but also with particular attention being paid to developing new methodologies for participatory communication and cooperation, thus increasing coastal awareness and behaviour development among all stakeholders.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to finance a pilot project to cover research, data collection, evaluation, field visits, and monitoring, consultations and networking for the development of prevention activities in order to halt desertification in Europe.

A number of Member States have taken measures individually in this respect; therefore, numerous examples both of good and of bad practice exist, alongside interdisciplinary studies and suggestions, based on but not limited to assessing damage caused by modern intensive agricultural practices and climate change-related issues.

According to reports from the secretariat of the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece, Malta, Latvia, Hungary, Romania, Turkey and Belarus, as well as other countries and regions in the Union and across Europe, are facing this major environmental and economic problem, and ‘business as usual’ scenarios show that agricultural productivity is expected to drop even further in the next few years, thus threatening the security of food supply.

Moreover, desertification results not only in agricultural losses, but also in loss of biodiversity, reduction in soil fertility and reduction in the capacity of soil to retain water, increased erosion and reduced carbon capture. Furthermore, floods and droughts linked to climate change are becoming more frequent and more drastic in their effects, increasing to an even greater extent the risk and negative economic and social consequences of desertification (see paragraph 17 of the European Parliament resolution of 9 October 2008 on addressing the challenge of water scarcity and droughts in the European Union ([OJ C 9 E, 15.1.2010, p. 33](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:C:2010:009E:TOC)).

The pilot project will involve:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | best practice exchange, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | demonstration of innovative approaches, know-how, new technologies, new methods and instruments, e.g. for water conservation, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | development of a monitoring scheme for the evaluation of information gathered and development of a platform for exchange of data with and between Member States, candidate countries, and western Balkan and European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) countries which would be open for consultation by other stakeholders, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | awareness-raising campaigns with and between Member States, candidate countries, and western Balkan and ENP countries, as well as other stakeholders facing this environmental and economic problem, with the aim of helping to maintain vegetation cover and surface and underground moisture levels, thus decreasing aridity and halting desertification, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | development of concrete pilot projects at local level to support innovative local measures on the conservation of rainwater and surface water. |

The pilot project could be improved in the future by addressing the issue of desertification on a Europe-wide basis in bilateral or multilateral agreements.

Remarks

The main aim of this project is to investigate the detailed weather-related and spatial structure of the Carpathians and the Carpathian basin with integrated or at least comparable methods. The basic results will be a contribution to regional climate variability and change studies, and applied climatology. The climate of the region has not been described as a geographical unit for about 90 years.

National meteorological measurement networks have different instruments and often different regulations. Accurate climate field modelling needs larger areas, but smaller countries cannot be used as a model for reproducing the climate of neighbouring regions. These factors make comparison between national maps impossible. Additionally, some countries have national climate atlases already, while some do not. The project will collect information on the measurements and on the existing databases. The next step is the development of climate maps by exchanging data and information. In parallel with that, data quality and standardisation methods will be compared. It is suggested that a mapping method be used for which there is no need for large amounts of data to be exchanged between countries. The scale of the project will be enlarged to include the south-eastern Europe region at the next stage in collaboration with the parallel south-eastern Europe climate mapping project, the precursor of which was the ‘Summer School on Preparation of Climate Atlas’ organised by the Hungarian Meteorological Service (http://www.met.hu/pages/seminars/seeera/index.htm) in 2007.

The climate of the Carpathians and the Carpathian basin is fundamental input information for weather and climate forecasting. The Carpathians Environment Outlook project (under the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) umbrella), Danube (seventh European corridor) and the Carpathian basin cover a large part of the watershed area. What will be produced will be common maps and comparable national climate and meteorological maps, and there will be a possibility of enlarging the scope of the project, plus a database of gridded maps for other future large projects.

Remarks

The aim of this pilot project is to develop a certification scheme for low-carbon farming practices in the Union. The scheme should target the whole farming sector and should aim to take into account all the main factors contributing to carbon emissions from farming, including the utilisation of fertilisers and other inputs, the handling of waste products, the production of renewable energy, the development of carbon sinks and the use of other climate mitigating practices and technologies. In order to ensure its relevance throughout the territory of the Union, the certification scheme to be developed in the pilot project should be tested through practical trials on a number of farming regions appropriately situated in various parts of the Union.

Remarks

The aim of this project is to create the most effective method of controlling the spread of ragweed, as well as preventing and treating pollen allergies based on international scientific research, data collection and evaluation.

The objectives of the project are for the countries involved:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to conduct scientific research on the feasibility and effectiveness of the various types of ragweed control (mechanical, biological, chemical, etc.), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to develop the most effective method for controlling the spread of ragweed, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to conduct studies on the impact of pollen contamination on society and public health, with special regard to children under the age of 10, a population group which is seriously affected by allergies, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to assess the costs and damages incurred in connection with the treatment of patients suffering from ragweed-related allergies and their complications (medicines, sick leave, loss of earnings, etc.), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to create allergy prevention and treatment methods in order to reduce allergic diseases and their complications, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to develop an effective prevention mechanism for ensuring that contamination does not spread to Member States which are not yet affected. |

Due to the allergenic properties of its pollen, the spread of common ragweed is of particular public concern in several European countries. The most contaminated areas in Europe are in France, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Bulgaria. As the cross-border spread of ragweed pollen is widely acknowledged, eradication programmes limited to particular countries will not succeed and pan-European action is needed.

Project title: Literature review on the potential effects of climate change on drinking water protection areas across the Union and the identification of priorities among different types of drinking water supplies

Budget: EUR 500 000

Project starting date:
1 January 2011.

Project end date:
31 December 2011.

Aim of the project:

Given climate change processes, long-term security of public drinking water supply can be achieved through the utilisation of vulnerable water reserves (e.g. bank-filtered water protection areas or other types of drinking water protection areas).

A literature review on the potential effects of climate change on drinking water protection areas across the Union will be a first step in a further analysis, alongside results from other projects, to identify with greater certainty prospective strategic drinking water reserves for the future.

Short description of the project:

Within the scope of the project, a literature review will be carried out of operating and natural recharge mechanisms, under extreme climate conditions, for water resources for public drinking water supply (ground waters, surface waters, karstic waters, bank-filtered waters) across the Union. The review of the effects of climate change on different types of drinking water protection areas will involve identifying priority topics and areas. The outcomes of the literature review will be compared with the results of other projects, such as the ‘Preparatory action on climate in the Carpathian region’ dealing with the effects of climate change on that area. The project will focus inter alia on assessing the vulnerability of sources of and facilities for drinking water supply and sanitation to climate change impacts.

The ultimate aim is to ensure the long-term preservation of vulnerable water protection areas so as to secure a safe public water supply regardless of the impact of climate change scenarios.

Without an analysis of the impacts of climate change, efforts to ensure security of supply would not have a proper basis and may even prove inadequate for keeping drinking water protection areas secure. In extreme cases, this may result in an inadequate supply of drinking water.

As the supply of safe water is one of the world’s major challenges, Europe will gain a competitive advantage if measures are planned before the impact of unfavourable processes is felt.

Countries concerned:

All the countries whose water supply comes from vulnerable water protection areas (ground waters, surface waters, bank filtration, karstic systems), particularly those lying along large rivers and in upland areas. The countries most affected are:

Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Poland, Italy, Austria and Germany.

Outcome of the project:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | literature review of potential impacts of climate change on different types of water protection areas across the Union, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | identification of priority topics and areas. |

Remarks

New article

This appropriation is intended to cover a pilot project assessing the effectiveness of the plastic recycling cycle at Union level and its potential loopholes, with a specific emphasis on water and marine environmental impacts. In-depth local or regional assessments, as well as studies focusing on coastal areas, could also be developed under this pilot project in order to identify concrete challenges, good practices and recommendations for action.

The assessment and study carried out under this pilot project would therefore aim at identifying technical loopholes and deficiencies in the plastic recycling chain in the Union, as well as potential legislative improvement in order to reduce the amount of land-based plastic reaching the marine environment.

Remarks

New article

This project will have as a general objective the elaboration of proposals to prepare for future action for investment in Member States of small scale solar energy demonstrative applications for heating, cooling and electricity. The specific objective should be to set up residential installations in those Member States and regions where there are no subsidies or very limited subsidies, in order to allow the presentation to a large audience of different technologies and possibilities for the generation of heat, cooling and electricity from the sun. As these are new technologies and the majority of the Union population is not well-informed about their advantages, solar private residential investments can be boosted by creating these demonstrative installations closer to their place of residence.

The outcome of the project should be several solar installations installed in residential houses and buildings which are made to be functional and to be visited.

Remarks

New article

The river district authorities submit that the River Basin Management Plans (RBMP) will be operational by 2012 and they will deliver their results by 2015 or at a later stage. A comparison of the major River Basin Management Plans’ pressures and measures is necessary for the European Parliament to understand the different approaches and their relation with other policy areas.

The project will aim at scrutinizing the RBMPs of the major districts in the Union. The project will use the same software to compare the pressures (load of pollutants, flows) and in the end the measures listed by the district authorities in order to restore good status. The expected outcome is a pan-European view on the pressures and concerns supported by a comparable geographical analysis, land occupations patterns, and economical perspectives. Specific areas of concern will be: source water protection measures, rural, urban and industrial pressures

Involved countries: Danube and Rhine riparian countries, Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom, and Poland.

Outcome of the project: Homogenous perspective on pressures and solution throughout the Union on water management.

Remarks

New article

This appropriation is intended to cover work needed to underpin the Union’s developing policy on the mainstreaming of climate action and adaptation to climate change, as basis for impact assessment and the preparation of future policy decisions.

Climate action is put forward as one of the central pillars of the Europe 2020 Strategy. Achieving the Union climate goals means reducing emissions significantly more quickly in the next decades than in the last decade.

In addition, the move to a low carbon, resource efficient and climate resilient economy will require harnessing the contribution of many Union policies (in particular cohesion, agricultural, rural development, research and innovation, transport and energy programmes, external action, etc.) to climate action, in particular through mainstreaming and adaptation measures.

The preparatory action should therefore cover studies and preparatory work aimed at:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | identifying the structural and technological changes required to move to a low carbon, resource efficient and climate resilient economy by 2050 through a pathway and the intermediate milestones in 2030, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | identify actions, strategies and legal instruments to be undertaken at Union, national and regional levels to mitigate climate change and its impact (for instance through funding improvements in infrastructure and production methods in vulnerable sectors) and meet the climate objectives set by the Union, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | developing innovative support mechanisms to develop low carbon and adaptation policies and strategies, including possible new financial instruments to fully exploit the potential of new technologies, to reduce losses caused by climate-change-related events, such as severe drought and flooding and extreme climate events, as well as to develop the Union’s capacity for disaster prevention and response. |

Legal basis

Preparatory action within the meaning of Article 49(6) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

Remarks

New article

This appropriation is intended to cover study work needed to underpin the developing maritime policy with sound facts and analyses, as far as there are gaps and as far as this is necessary as a basis for impact assessments and the preparation of future policy decisions. This is notably the case regarding socio-economic and legal matters in the maritime domain.

Three cross-cutting areas have been identified so far for potential future action: ‘Maritime spatial planning’, ‘Integration and convergence of marine data collection systems’ and ‘Maritime surveillance’.

This appropriation is also intended to cover expenditure for carrying out feasibility studies with a view to elaborating future proposals in these areas.

This appropriation is also intended to promote integration of various systems for the monitoring and surveillance of the seas, collate scientific data on the sea, and disseminate networks and best practices in the field of maritime policy and the coastal economy.

Legal basis

Preparatory action within the meaning of Article 49(6)(b) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

For all appropriations under this title the same definition of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as is used for the horizontal SME-specific programmes within the same framework programme shall apply. That definition reads as follows: ‘An eligible SME is a legal entity that complies with the SME definition set out in Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC and is not a research centre, research institute, contract research organisation or consultancy firm’. All research activities conducted pursuant to the Seventh Framework Programme will be carried out in compliance with fundamental ethical principles (in accordance with Article 6(1) of Decision No 1982/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007-2013) ([OJ L 412, 30.12.2006, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:412:TOC))), including animal welfare requirements. This will include, in particular, the principles laid down in Article 6 of the Treaty on European Union and in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. Particular account will be taken of the need to step up efforts to enhance the participation and role of women in science and research.

Also entered against these articles and items are the costs of high-level scientific and technological meetings, conferences, workshops and seminars of European interest organised by the Commission, the funding of high-level scientific and technological analyses and evaluations carried out on behalf of the Union to investigate new areas of research suitable for Union action, inter alia, in the context of the European Research Area, and measures to monitor and disseminate the results of the programmes, including measures under previous framework programmes.

These appropriations also cover administrative expenditure, including expenditure on staff, whether covered by the Staff Regulations or not, information, publications, administrative and technical operation, and certain other expenditure Items relating to internal infrastructure linked with the achievement of the objective of the measure of which they form an integral part, including the action and initiatives necessary for preparation and monitoring of the Union’s strategy on research, technological development and demonstration (RTD).

Revenue resulting from cooperation agreements between the European Atomic Energy Community and Switzerland or the multilateral European Fusion Development Agreement (EFDA) will be entered in Items 6 0 1 1 and 6 0 1 2 of the statement of revenue and may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

The possibility of third countries or institutes from third countries taking part in European Cooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research is envisaged for some of these projects. Any financial contribution will be entered in Items 6 0 1 3 and 6 0 1 5 of the statement of revenue and may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Revenue from States taking part in the European Cooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research will be entered in Item 6 0 1 6 of the of the statement of revenue and may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contribution by outside bodies to Union/Community activities will be entered in Item 6 0 3 3 of the statement of revenue and may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Additional appropriations will be made available under Article 08 22 04.

In order to be able to meet the goal of 15 % SME participation in the projects financed by these appropriations, as laid down in Decision No 1982/2006/EC, more specific action is needed. Qualifying projects under the SME specific programmes should be made eligible for funding under the thematic programme when they fulfil the necessary (thematic) requirements.

Remarks

The actions carried out in the area of health are intended to improve the health of the European public and boost the competitiveness of industries and companies linked to the health sector in Europe, while at the same time addressing world health problems, including new epidemics. The emphasis will be on translational research (transposing basic findings into clinical applications), developing and validating new treatments, identifying ways of promoting health and preventing illness, diagnostic tools and technologies for making diagnoses, as well as sustainable and effective healthcare systems. Special attention will be given to communicating research findings and to the initiation of a dialogue with civil society, in particular patient groups, at as early a stage as possible in new developments produced by biomedical and genetics research.

Funding may be given to clinical research on many diseases (e.g. HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, new or reappearing pandemics, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and other chronic diseases (e.g. arthritis, rheumatic diseases and musculo-skeletal diseases, as well as respiratory diseases), rare diseases and neurodegenerative diseases).

A significant share of funding should go to research on non-HIV poverty-related tropical and neglected diseases, with special attention to research on tuberculosis (TB).

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article.

Remarks

The actions carried out in this area are intended to help establish the integrated scientific and technological bases needed to develop a European ‘knowledge-based bioeconomy’ by bringing together science, industry and other stakeholders. Three pillars support this approach: (1) sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest, and aquatic environments; (2) farm to fork: food, health and well being, and (3) life sciences and biotechnology for sustainable non-food products and processes. This way new and emerging research opportunities can be exploited that address social and economic challenges, such as the growing demand for environmentally and animal friendly systems of production and distribution of safer, healthier and higher quality food in line with consumer requirements and control of food-related risks, relying in particular on biotechnology tools, as well as health risks associated with environmental changes.

This appropriation is also intended to fund the development and improvement of analysis methods (e.g. residue analysis in food and feedingstuffs).

Since, under current legislation, no specific funds are earmarked for fisheries research, at least the same percentage share will be maintained for fisheries research as under the previous budget. This appropriation is further intended to fund the development and improvement of the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) concept as a policy instrument for sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources and the development of a policy concept restricting discard of by catches.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Environmental research within the Seventh Framework Programme will be implemented through the ‘Environment (including climate change)’ theme. The objective is to promote sustainable management of the natural and human environment and its resources by advancing our knowledge of the interactions between the biosphere, ecosystems and human activities, and developing new technologies, tools and services, in order to address in an integrated way global environmental issues. Emphasis will be put on prediction of climate, ecological, earth and ocean systems changes and on tools and technologies, for monitoring, prevention and mitigation of environmental pressures and risks including on human health, and for the sustainability of the natural and man-made environment.

Research on this theme will contribute to the implementation of international commitments and initiatives such as Global Earth Observation (GEO). In addition, it will support the research needs arising from the existing and future Union legislation and policies, associated thematic strategies and the action plans on environmental technologies and on environment and health. Research will also contribute technological developments that will improve the market positioning of European enterprises, in particular of small and medium-sized enterprises, in areas such as environmental technologies.

Remarks

For the Seventh Framework Programme for the period 2007 to 2013, an integrated approach has been proposed which links all transport modes (aeronautics, road, rail, waterborne), addresses the socio-economic and technological dimensions of research and knowledge development, and encapsulates both innovation and the policy framework. It is in line with the White Paper on transport and the updated versions of the strategic research agendas of the four technology platforms in the field of transport. Based on technological advances, the general objective is to develop integrated, ‘greener’, ‘smarter’ and safer pan-European transport systems for the benefit of citizens and society, respecting the environment and natural resources and securing and further developing the competitiveness and the leading role attained by the European industries in the global market.

Remarks

This action is geared, in a balanced manner, to the implementation of operational and technical measures designed to promote safer use of the Internet and other communication technologies, particularly for children, and to fight against illegal content and harmful content online. In line with this, the programme will focus on practical help for the end user and in particular children, parents, carers, teachers and educators.

The specific objectives are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | tackling illegal content and harmful conduct online by supporting actions aiming at reducing the amount of illegal content circulated online and dealing adequately with harmful conduct online, with particular focus on online distribution of child sexual abuse material, grooming and bullying, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | promoting a safer online environment by bringing together stakeholders to find ways to promote a safer online environment and to protect children from content and conduct that may be harmful for them. The aim is to encourage stakeholders to cooperate, take responsibility and develop and implement systems of self-regulation and foster privacy-by-design, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | ensuring public awareness by providing contact points where the public and in particular children, parents, carers, teachers and educators can be informed about opportunities and risks related to the use of online technologies and means of staying safe online, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | establishing a knowledge base in order to set up and continue to develop a base for dealing adequately both with existing and emerging uses, risks and consequences, and mapping both quantitative and qualitative aspects in this context. The acquired knowledge will feed into the implementation of the proposed programme as well as into designing adequate and proportional actions for ensuring online safety for all users. |

The programme will seek to involve and bring together the different stakeholders whose cooperation is essential, but who do not necessarily always come together unless the appropriate structures are put in place.

This includes content providers, internet service providers, mobile network operators, regulators, standards bodies, industry self-regulatory bodies, national, regional and local authorities responsible for industry, education, consumer protection, families, law enforcement, children’s rights and child welfare and non-governmental organisations active in consumer protection, families, children’s rights and child welfare.

These measures will be implemented by means of the following shared-cost actions:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | pilot projects and best practice actions; ad-hoc projects in areas relevant to the programme, including projects demonstrating best practice or involving innovative uses of existing technology, especially for data protection purposes and the protection of fundamental rights, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | networks and national actions bringing together a variety of stakeholders to ensure action throughout Europe and to facilitate coordination activities and the transfer of knowledge, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | Europe-wide investigation carried out on a comparable basis into the way adults and children use online technologies, the resulting risks for children and the effects of harmful practices on children, and behavioural and psychological aspects with emphasis on child sexual abuse related to the use of online technologies, investigation on upcoming risk situations due to transforming behaviours or technological developments, etc. |

Accompanying measures will contribute to the implementation of the programme or the preparation of future activities. They will include:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | benchmarking and opinion surveys to produce reliable data on safer use of online technologies for all Member States collected through comparable methodologies, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | technical assessment of technologies such as filtering designed to promote safer use of the internet and new online technologies, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | studies in support of the programme and its actions, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | exchange of information through conferences, seminars, workshops or other meetings and the management of clustered activities, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | dissemination, information and communication activities. |

Ensuring pluralism in Europe is one of the most important goals of the Union’s media policies. An effective way to enhance pluralism is to give journalists access to pluralism. This could be achieved by financing exchanges of journalists between different countries and media within the Union. The goal is to enable journalists to gain a broader and more comprehensive understanding of the Union and its different media and cultures.

Remarks

The ICT PSP is one of the three specific programmes under the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP).

Actions will be stepped up at Union level for stimulating wider uptake of information and communication technologies (ICTs). Synergistic actions at Union level aim to reduce uncertainties and the risks of duplication by sharing and replicating experiences and lessons learned and foster the internal market dimension of services triggered by ICTs promoting interoperability and combating fragmentation. They aim also to stimulate the regulatory and technological environments necessary to promote innovation and to overcome potential barriers (e.g. cultural, linguistic, technical, legal and disability- or ‘dys’ condition-related).

As indicated in the legal basis, the ICT PSP shall provide for the following actions:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (a) | development of the single European information space and strengthening of the internal market for ICT products and services; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (b) | stimulation of innovation through a wider adoption of and investment in ICTs; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (c) | development of an inclusive information society and more efficient and effective services in areas of public interest, and improvement of the quality of life, particularly for persons with disabilities and persons suffering from ‘dys’ conditions (dyslexia, dyspraxia, dysphasia, dyscalculia, etc.). |

This will be done in particular by supporting the development of ICT-based services and the development and use of digital content in areas of public interest, including in the areas of ICT for health and inclusion; ICT for government and governance; ICT for energy efficiency, smart mobility and environment; digital libraries, better exploitation of public sector information, education and learning.

Part of ICT PSP appropriations in the CIP may be used to ensure testing, and support deployment across the Union, of the next-generation 112, innovative services for interoperable emergency services and 112 for all citizens, enabling quicker, more efficient reactions and life-saving, inter alia, through remodelling the traditional technical architecture for emergency calling and lowering its cost and complexity, with the ultimate aim of providing an optimum response to 112 calls made by all citizens, including users with disabilities. Furthermore, dissemination, information and education actions should promote the knowledge and appropriate use of ‘112’. In addition, an SMS SOS service should be developed and tested to enable people with disabilities to send requests for help to the emergency services.

The ICT PSP in the CIP will stimulate wider uptake of ICT for improved services. It will also ensure that European businesses and in particular small and medium-sized enterprises can benefit from the new opportunities brought by the increasing demand for these ICT-based services. As indicated in the CIP legal basis, the support to the development and use of digital content is fully integrated in the ICT PSP from 2009 on. During a transition phase for 2007 and 2008, this has been done under the eContent plus programme (through its own legal basis).

The main part of the support will go to a limited number of high-impact pilot projects and best practice actions per year. Accompanying measures, such as thematic networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders around specific objectives, will also be launched. They will be complemented by the monitoring of the European information society, by measures providing the background knowledge that is needed for policy decision-making, and by actions for promoting and raising awareness of the benefits brought by ICT to citizens, businesses (in particular small and medium-sized enterprises) or public organisations.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this Article.

Remarks

The objective of the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007-2013) and the ‘Information and Communication Technologies’ theme of the specific ‘Cooperation’ programme is to improve the competitiveness of European industry and to enable Europe to master and shape the future developments in ICTs so that the demands of its society and economy are met.

Activities will strengthen Europe’s scientific and technology base and insure its global leadership in ICTs, help drive and stimulate innovation through ICT use and ensure that ICT progress is rapidly transformed into benefits for Europe’s citizens, businesses, industry and governments.

The ICT theme prioritises strategic research around key technology pillars, ensures end-to-end integration of technologies and provides the knowledge and the means to develop a wide range of innovative ICT applications.

The activities leverage industrial and technological advances in the ICT sector and improve the competitive edge of important ICT-intensive sectors — both through innovative high-value ICT-based products and services and from new or improved organisational processes in businesses and administrations alike. The theme also supports other policies of the Union by mobilising ICTs to meet public and societal demands.

Activities cover collaboration, networking actions and national programme coordination initiatives. Also entered in this Article are the costs of independent experts assisting in proposal evaluations and project reviews, the costs of events, meetings, conferences, workshops and seminars of European interest organised by the Commission, the costs of studies, analyses and evaluations, the costs of monitoring and evaluation of the specific programmes and of the framework programmes and the costs of measures to monitor and disseminate the results of the programmes, including measures under previous framework programmes.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this item. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Remarks

Investing in knowledge is the best way for Europe to foster sustainable growth in a global economy and the research programme is the cornerstone of Europe’s knowledge policy. The specific ‘Capacities’ programme under the Seventh Framework Programme for research, technological development and demonstration activities aims to enhance research and innovation capacity throughout Europe through the emergence and reinforcement of multidisciplinary European poles of excellence. In particular, research infrastructures play a key role in supporting the creation of knowledge, its dissemination, application and exploitation, thus fostering innovation.

This activity addresses more specifically the deployment of ICT-based infrastructures, or e-infrastructures. These provide services to research communities by bringing the power of distributed ICT-based resources (computing, connectivity, storage, data and instrumentation) to virtual communities. The reinforcement of a European approach in this domain establishes synergies between national infrastructures or initiatives, ensures that critical masses are reached, rationalises new investments, and strives for world leadership. It can make a significant contribution to boosting European research potential and its exploitation, and consolidating e-infrastructures as a cornerstone of the European Research Area, a ‘forerunner’ of cross-discipline innovation and a driver in changing the way science is conducted.

Also entered in this Article are the costs of high-level scientific and technological meetings, conferences, workshops and seminars of European interest organised by the Commission, the costs of studies, grants, monitoring and evaluation of the specific programmes and of the framework programmes, the funding of high-level scientific and technological analyses and evaluations carried out on behalf of the Union to investigate new areas of research suitable for Union action, inter alia, in the context of the European Research Area, and measures to monitor and disseminate the results of the programmes, including measures under previous framework programmes.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this Article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to finance the following under the action plan for closer dialogue with the fishing industry and those affected by the common fisheries policy and the integrated maritime policy:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | grants to Regional Advisory Councils (RACs) to cover operational costs as well as interpretation and translation costs of RAC meetings, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | grants to European trade bodies for the organisation of internal coordination meetings in preparation for meetings of the Advisory Committee on Fisheries and Aquaculture (ACFA), including the participation of ACFA representatives in the meetings of the RACs in order to ensure coordination of the work of the RACs with that of the ACFA, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the implementation of measures to provide documentation about and explain the common fisheries policy aimed at the fishing industry and those affected by the common fisheries policy, as well as the integrated maritime policy. |

The Commission will continue supporting the functioning of the RACs with a financial contribution and by participating in meetings, preparing relevant documents and ensuring that all RAC opinions are included when drafting new legislation. If the Commission does not include the RAC opinion or only parts of the opinion, the Commission should state why and where it deviates from the RAC opinion. The involvement of people working in fisheries and other interest groups in the common fisheries policy process will be strengthened, so that greater account of specific regional characteristics is taken.

The Commission will furthermore introduce greater flexibility and make the rules governing the financial activities of RACs clearer and more transparent so that these shortcomings no longer prevent RACs from spending their budget allocations in full.

Part of the appropriation is earmarked also for information and communication activities linked to the common fisheries policy and the integrated maritime policy as well as for communication activities addressed to the interested parties. Efforts will continue to be made to inform the stakeholders and the specialised media in the new Member States as well as in the countries joining the European Union in the forthcoming enlargement about the common fisheries policy and the integrated maritime policy.

This appropriation may also cover funding for cooperation and training seminars for third countries in the fight against illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing.

Any revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

This appropriation covers:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the Union financial contribution to the expenditure incurred by Member States for the collection, management and use of data in the framework of multiannual national programmes, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the financing of studies and pilot projects carried out by the Commission, where appropriate in cooperation with the Member States, necessary for the conservation, management and exploitation of living aquatic resources in the framework of the common fisheries policy. |

This appropriation is intended to cover the cost of assessing the feasibility of setting up a Union-wide public eco-labelling scheme for fishery and aquaculture products and of laying down specifications for the eco-label itself.

The purpose of this appropriation is to:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | look into the criteria that fishery and aquaculture products would need to meet in order to be awarded an eco-label, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | lay down specifications for an eco-label that consumers can trust, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | determine the best administrative arrangements for the certification system. |

The objective of this appropriation is also to gather available information on selective fishing gears which help to reduce by catch and to promote this information among fishermen. A lot of progress is being made concerning selective fishing gears but a lot of these projects and research results are only implemented in some specific regions and are therefore unknown by the majority of fishermen. There have been NGO initiatives to create catalogues of recommendable gears, especially for flatfish fisheries. The aim is to create such kind of catalogues in a more comprehensive way for trawling and gillnet fisheries and to take the necessary measures to promote these catalogues within the different fishing communities.

The objective of this appropriation is also to create a solution-oriented platform for stakeholders chaired by a professional moderator. The platform is open for scientists and the European Commission and is being introduced as a ‘physical’ complement to the virtual platform which will become operational in 2010/2011 (see also Commission call for tender ‘Sustainable management of cormorant populations’, OJ 2010/S 75-111249, 17.4.2010 (http://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:111249-2010:TEXT:EN:HTML)). The aims of the platform are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | assess the efficiency and cost-benefit ratio of derogation measures pursuant to Article 9 of Directive 2009/147/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 on the conservation of wild birds (codified version) ([OJ L 20, 26.1.2010, p. 7](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2010:020:TOC)) to prevent serious damage by cormorants to fisheries; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | discuss the consequences of birds of prey on fisheries, fauna and flora; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | discuss contemporary wildlife management practices. |

The platform should organise meetings four times each year. The goal would be to reach a common understanding of ‘best practices’. Additionally, the expectation is to provide a ‘feasibility test’ or a ‘best practice’ approach as inspiration for other cases of animal/fauna/human conflicts.

The platform is a follow-up to point 6 of the European Parliament resolution of 4 December 2008 on the adoption of a European Cormorant Management Plan to minimise the increasing impact of cormorants on fish stocks, fishing and aquaculture ([OJ C 21 E, 28.1.2010, p. 11](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:C:2010:021E:TOC)), in which Parliament called ‘on the Commission to set up a working party with a binding mandate to carry out within one year a systematic cost-benefit analysis of possible cormorant management actions at Member State level, to assess their credibility on the basis of logical and scientific criteria and to submit a recommendation; the composition of the working party should reflect the degree to which the stakeholders are affected’.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover study work needed to underpin the developing maritime policy with sound facts and analyses, as far as there are gaps and as far as this is necessary as a basis for impact assessment and the preparation of future policy decisions. This is notably the case regarding socio-economic and legal matters in the maritime domain.

Three cross-cutting areas have been identified so far for potential future action: ‘Maritime spatial planning’, ‘Integration and convergence of marine data collection systems’ and ‘Maritime surveillance’. This appropriation is also intended to cover expenditure for carrying out feasibility studies with a view to elaborating future proposals in these areas.

This appropriation is also intended to promote integration of various systems for the monitoring and surveillance of the seas, collate scientific data on the sea, and disseminate networks and best practices in the field of maritime policy and the coastal economy.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure arising in connection with measures for the management and development of Solvit and for the implementation of the single market assistance services action plan.

The Solvit system has proved to be one of the most effective out-of-court dispute settlement mechanisms.

It can effectively and efficiently deal with problems faced by citizens or businesses, arising as a result of the misapplication of internal market legislation by a public administration in another Member State. Furthermore, the Solvit system is able to produce feedback information by using an online database system which is accessible to all coordination centres and to which citizens and business can directly submit their problems.

However, Solvit like many other public assistance services relating to Union issues is still not widely known among potential users of the system. At the same time citizens and businesses are often very confused about the right address for their requests for information, assistance or problem solving. To remedy this, the Commission has announced, as part of the single market review, that it will endeavour to create a single web-based access point guiding citizens and business to the right service. In October 2010 the Commission launched a new website, Your Europe, which provides citizens and businesses with information, and sends them directly to relevant services such as Solvit in the event that they need help. Your Europe, together with the Europe Direct call centre, represents the single contact point for the Solvit system. The Commission shall inform the competent committee of the European Parliament in a yearly report about the frequency of use of the contact point and possible measures to further improve it.

Member States should be urged to take appropriate measures to notify their citizens about the provision of such a single contact point.

Moreover, in the Commission's action plan of 8 May 2008 on an integrated approach for providing Single Market Assistance Services to citizens and businesses, a range of actions was proposed to increase cooperation between the existing assistance services so that they can offer a better, faster and more streamlined overall service to citizens and businesses.

Promotion of all these services also needs to take place in a more coordinated way to avoid citizens and businesses being confused by too many brand names.

Additionally, the Commission shall inform the competent committee of the European Parliament about the concrete measures which have been undertaken in this field.

Remarks

New article

The Single Market Forum should be an annual event in the Member State holding the EU Presidency bringing together representatives of citizens, businesses and consumer organisations as well as representatives of the Member States and the EU institutions in order to establish a clear commitment to the transposition, application and enforcement of single market legislation. The aim of this event should be to tackle incorrect transposition, misapplication and non-enforcement of single market legislation by improving coordination and better governance of the single market. The event should become an important platform for exchanging best practices between stakeholders and for informing citizens of their rights in the single market. In particular, the top 20 concerns, challenges and opportunities for citizens and businesses identified by the Commission, should be taken into consideration at the event. A working group should be created, to be composed of Members of the European Parliament and representatives of the Commission and the EU Presidency-in-Office, which should work out the organisational arrangements for the Single Market Forum.

This appropriation is also intended to finance a one-stop shop to help applicants for renovation of buildings aimed at becoming positive energy or passive buildings in the framework of Directive 2002/91/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2002 on energy performance of buildings ([OJ L 1, 4.1.2003, p. 65](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2003:001:TOC)).

This appropriation is also intended to fund measures taken by partners in preparation for the next programming period.

In order to provide help and support for local actors in the Union involved in running Structural Funds and Cohesion Fund programmes — especially in the new Member States —, the Commission should propose a training and mobility scheme which would allow them to strengthen their skills in running programmes and exchange best practices and ideas on the problems they encounter on a regular basis. This would improve overall governance and institutional capacity building for the management of programmes and territorial policies.

The lack of efficient on-the-spot training of local authority and local staff responsible for management of Union funds is a major cause of procedural error, poor control and low absorption rates. Establishing a network of trainers to work locally will increase cost effectiveness and the efficiency of the policy.

Remarks

The aim of the pilot project is to produce a complex analysis based on current understanding of the Roma community's situation in the Union, emphasising the entire complex and synergetic spectrum of education and training, beginning with pre-school children, through the further education of young mothers up to training for older people.

The pilot project should also reflect the proper preparation and implementation of the institutional process in terms of consultations, networking, data collection, evaluation, field visits, research, etc. A number of Member States have taken measures to promote Roma integration. Examples both of good and of bad practice are numerous, alongside a growing corpus of sociological, legal and policy-oriented research.

A Roma Unit could be set up to explore, from a Union policy implementation point of view, sectoral issues and propose appropriate actions and measures to be included in the proposals for a Roma Inclusion Action Plan.

It could also take on the task of examining cross-sector cooperation and use of the existing different financial instruments, proposing pilot projects and detecting transferable and sustainable good practice which can then contribute to producing concrete policy proposals.

In this context, reference can be made to the need for long-term proposals on the housing and urban development aspects (linked to issues of segregation, ghettoisation, etc., when badly prepared) in connection with innovative use of regional funds and EIB/EBRD support, or the huge issue of data collection (and protection), statistics, etc., but also the obviously related issues of combating crime and trafficking, as well as basic registration problems.

Particular attention has to be given to the issue of media coverage and communication in general.

As an essential prerequisite for success, a process of structured dialogue with Roma civil society has to be developed at local, national and Union level.

The European Parliament has been a pioneer in promoting Roma rights; its first resolution on the issue goes back to 1984. During the sixth parliamentary term, the European Parliament has adopted a number of resolutions on the specific situation of Roma in Europe. In particular, in its resolution of 31 January 2008 on a European strategy on the Roma ([OJ C 68 E, 21.3.2009, p. 31](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:C:2009:068E:TOC)), the European Parliament urged ‘the Commission to develop a European Framework Strategy on Roma Inclusion aimed at providing policy coherence at EU level as regards the social inclusion of Roma and urges the Commission at the same time to comprehensively shape a Community Action Plan on Roma Inclusion with the task of providing financial support for realising the objective of the European Framework Strategy on Roma Inclusion’. Also, in its resolution of 10 July 2008 on the census of the Roma on the basis of ethnicity in Italy ([OJ C 294 E, 3.12.2009, p. 54](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:C:2009:294E:TOC)), the European Parliament reiterated those requests and again called on the Commission and the Member States, within the framework of a European Union Roma Strategy and in the context of the Decade of Roma Inclusion 2005-2015, to enact legislation and policies to support Roma communities while promoting their integration in all fields, to launch anti-racism and anti-discrimination programmes in schools, employment and the media and to enhance the exchange of expertise and best practices.

The European Parliament reiterates in this context the importance of developing strategies at Union and national level, making full use of the opportunities provided by Union funds, to abolish Roma segregation in education, to ensure equal access to quality education for Roma children (participation in mainstream education, introduction of special scholarship and trainee programmes, additional and concrete measures to promote pre-school education for Roma children and postgraduate studies at national and international level for Roma students as well as educating an effective group of ‘Roma diplomats’ able to bridge the gap between Roma communities and public institutions), to ensure and improve Roma access to labour markets, to provide equal access to health care and social security benefits, to combat discriminatory practices in the provision of housing, and to increase the participation of the Roma in social, economic, cultural and political life.

The European Parliament reaffirms the need to set up a network of academic and civil experts with a clear mandate to propose specific pilot projects and elaborate projects triggering immediate changes.

The aim of the pilot project is also to ensure the integrated education of Roma families, focusing simultaneously on the early integration of children in pre-school education, the training of parents and the conducting of community activities for the whole family, also with a view to improving adults’ passive skills.

In its conclusions of 14 December 2007, the European Council, ‘conscious of the very specific situation faced by the Roma across the Union’, invited ‘Member States and the Union to use all means to improve their inclusion’. In its conclusions of 19 and 20 June 2008, it stated that ‘… it looks forward to the results (…) of the forthcoming conference on this issue to be held in September [2008]. It invites the Council to take this into account in its examination of the revised Social Agenda. The European Council will return to this issue before the end of the year’.

Remarks

The objective of this pilot project is to provide help and support for local and regional councils in the Union.

The first principle of the pilot project is to encourage and support the mobility of both elected local and regional representatives within the Union. The second principle of the pilot project is that the mobility element is included in an agreed programme of on-the-spot training and sharing of experience with focus on ‘economic and social cohesion’.

Goals are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to encourage multilateral cooperation between territorial and local and regional institutions on a political level, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to support the mobility of elected local and regional representatives, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to stimulate common research and exchange of ideas on the problems they encounter on a regular basis by means of on-the-spot training and the sharing of experience, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to promote the exchange of best practices. |

The pilot project is thus a tool to enhance the learning and experience of elected local and regional representatives; and to increase the capacity of local and regional councils in regard to the application of concepts, democratic principles and strategies.

Remarks

This project aims to develop a comprehensive strategy that would promote knowledge of, and experience from, Union regional policy for third countries. This strategy should include the organisation of international events, information activities, network building between regional and local stakeholders, development of joint projects and new regional partnerships, as well as the exchange of good practices between regions. By promoting the EU cohesion policy model as a success story through a number of regional dialogues, the Union will use these actions to exemplify and advance its values, fundamental principles, organisational structures and policies on a global scale. Cooperation with international organisations active in this field (Forum of Global Associations of Regions (FOGAR) and United Cities and Local Government (UCLG) will prove to be particularly beneficial to that end.

Remarks

The Council has on several occasions (in 2000 and in March 2003) acknowledged the advantages of micro-finance for small firms. The European Council has, for the first time, asked Member States to pay particular attention to using micro-credit to foster the establishment and growth of small firms. Micro-credit was one of the focuses of the European multiannual programme (MAP/2002 to 2006) financial instruments which the Council adopted in December 2001, defining ‘micro-loan’ as a loan of less than EUR 25 000.

The Competitiveness and Innovation Programme (CIP), which has been in operation since 2006, also deals with micro-credit, including under the second facility (SME Guarantee Facility). This facility, which is administered by the European Investment Fund (EIF), seeks to encourage financial institutions to play a more important role in offering small loans, which normally carry with them proportionally high loan management costs for borrowers unable to provide adequate security. In addition to guarantees and counter-guarantees, financial intermediaries are entitled to subsidies to reduce the high administrative costs associated with micro-loans.

The aim of this preparatory action is to foster the development of micro-credit in Europe, in line with the Europe 2020 Strategy growth and employment targets and the recommendations set out in the European Parliament resolution of 11 July 2007 on financial services policy (2005 to 2010) — White Paper ([OJ C 175 E, 10.7.2008, p. 392](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:C:2008:175E:TOC)), with particular reference to the need for a micro-credit action plan.

The purpose of the preparatory action is to:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | ensure that the micro-credit business in Europe becomes self-financing in the medium term by building up the equity of micro-finance institutions, particularly non-banking institutions. The project could be administered by the EIF, the Union financial institution which specialises in small and medium-sized enterprise and micro-enterprise funding and which also administers the Union financial instruments, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | foster greater synergy between existing financial instruments covering inter-related areas (CIP, Joint European Resources for Micro to Medium Enterprises (Jeremie), ERDF, EDF), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | foster social inclusion through entrepreneurship and the economic growth it brings. Associations working with less-favoured groups may be recipients of the funding made available. |

The purpose of the appropriation is to cover the implementation of the preparatory action adopted for 2008; it will be used, in particular, to develop a seed fund for non-banking institutions.

Starting date of the project: 1 January 2011

End date of the project: 31 December 2013

The European Council of 19 June 2009 has formally asked the Commission to present a European Union Strategy for the Danube Region before the end of 2010. The Strategy, which will be launched under the Hungarian Presidency of the European Union, at the beginning of 2011, will be accompanied by an Action Plan, which will be permanently developed and updated taking into account the proposal from the Member States. Article 3 of the Treaty on European Union improves the Union's ability to promote economic, social and territorial cohesion, and solidarity among Member States. This preparatory action is needed in order to develop the necessary capacity building and to speed up the coordination process to ensure the right governance model for the implementation of the European Union Strategy for the Danube Region.

The Danube Region has an established history of networking and co-operation in many policy areas. The strategy and its Action Plan will offer the opportunity to move from words to action and to deliver real benefits for the region as a whole. There is a need for a common strategic vision to guide future territorial development for the Danube Region. It is clear that no one acting alone can apply the range of measures necessary to confront the challenges and exploit the opportunities of the region. A strategy for the Danube Region, consisting of detailed and consistent actions, with an appropriate financial support are essential to develop the Danube Region and to fully exploit the opportunities open to the region.

The Danube links ten European countries — Germany, Austria, the Slovak Republic, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine — six of which are Member States, and in a broader territorial context the region also comprises the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro.

The Danube region is an important crossover point between the Union's Cohesion Policy programmes, programmes for countries covered by the European Neighbourhood Policy and potential candidates for accession, and therefore represents an area where enhanced synergies between different EU policies can be developed: cohesion, transport, tourism, agriculture, fisheries, economic and social development, energy, environment, enlargement and neighbourhood policy and the EU Strategy for the Danube Region is to be developed in the following cooperation areas: social development and protection, sustainable economic development, transport and energy infrastructure, environmental protection, culture and education.

The European Union Strategy for the Danube Region should be implemented by making use of all available funding resources, from the European Union, its Member States and other riparian countries, International Financial Institutions (IFI), as well as private capital. The focus should be on improved, more efficient and effective ways to coordinate the different funding instruments and the proposed specific actions. It is expected that the European Union Strategy for the Danube Region through a better cooperation between Member States and Danube riparian countries, will boost the social and economic development of the region. This will create new business opportunities, will accelerate the development of sustainable, more efficient and intermodal transport system as well as for a sustainable transport and tourism and will improve the quality of life of all citizens living in the Danube river basin with full respect of the environment.

The preparatory action thus shall promote/create a governance model to be implemented in the specific areas concerning the Danube Region.

The funding is intended to finance activities related to the definition of the governance model required by the development and implementation of the European Union Strategy for the Danube Region. The governance model will improve the cooperation between all participant countries and regions to common flagship projects in the field of:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | environmentally friendly use of the Danube by inland navigation, intermodality with other transport modes along the Danube through the improvement of all infrastructures (with priority for the better use of existing infrastructure) and by creating a multi-modal transport system all along the river, environmentally-friendly use of water power along the Danube, preservation and improvement of Danube water quality in accordance with the Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2000 establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy ([OJ L 327, 22.12.2000, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2000:327:TOC)), stringent vessel safety requirements, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | sustainable tourism: ecotourism, the development of the cycle routes along almost the entire Danube, development of the conventional mass cultural tourism, urban and rural tourism, business and cruise tourism, sports tourism, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | joint projects (to promote and implement) in order to increase cooperation in the field of energy, especially on energy efficiency and renewable energy resources, in the light of the region's potential as a source of bioenergy, and to encourage the use of biomass, solar, wind and hydro energy, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | promotion of research infrastructure tailored to the specific strengths of the regions and of specific clusters of excellence for product innovation and marketing, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | a common research and development programme in, and for, the Danube Region and which is aimed at supporting scientific development and innovation by ensuring cooperation between Danube states in fields of environmental research, fisheries, agriculture, infrastructure (including the energy field), transport, training and mobility for researchers and socioeconomic aspects, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | university exchange programmes within the region and university networks in order to foster centres of excellence capable of competing at international level and to strengthen the Danube identity through training and improving governance, life long learning, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | ensuring the security of the region. |

The European Union Strategy for the Danube Region — Not just a strategy

There must be actions — concrete, visible actions — to overcome the challenges facing the region. In its action plan, the Commission should insist that Member States and other stakeholders take responsibility as lead partners for specific priority areas and flagship projects, for example, by developing a specific and integrated governance in line with a common and integrated approach to the European Union Strategy for the Danube Region adopted by the Commission on 8 December 2010.

The Commission will fulfil the need for an independent, multi-sector body/approach that can guarantee the necessary co-ordination, monitoring and follow-up of the action plan, as well as a regular updating of the plan and strategy as necessary. The Commission is not proposing additional funding or other resources at this time. However, some of the specific actions and projects will require financial support. A major source is the Structural Funds available in the region — most programmes already allow actions envisaged in the strategy. Programming authorities can review the allocation criteria and facilitate the selection of projects aligned with the strategy. In addition, Member States will examine funding projects and actions aligned with the strategy priorities from their own resources. The European Investment Bank and other international and regional financial institutions could also contribute.

Enhanced efforts through the action plan should be carried out in close coordination with any such ongoing developments (in particular new regulations), including at Union level, to ensure coherence and efficiency.

The on-going economic crisis implies a less-favourable climate for investment, affecting both public sectors and private business generally. This makes it all the more essential that the European Union Strategy for the Danube Region allows the partners in the region to take a longer perspective, recognising that when this crisis has passed the regions that have best prepared will be those best equipped to take advantage of the new opportunities and innovations.

This preparatory action, established on the initiative of the European Parliament, is to have a duration of three years, from January 2011 to December 2013, and the amount to be allocated is EUR 1 500 000 per year.

The above projects will require time-intensive preparations with the Member States concerned and with relevant authorities of the third countries. First disbursements will take place in 2011.

Based upon the existing legal framework, this preparatory action, presents solutions for the sustainable cooperation between Member States and other riparian countries. It substantiates the development of the European Union Strategy for the Danube Region and its integration into the overall policy of the Union.

Remarks

In accordance with the decision for an integrated programme in the field of lifelong learning, this appropriation is intended to cover the following specific programmes and horizontal actions:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | Comenius: for general education activities concerning schools up to and including upper-secondary level, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | Erasmus: for education and advanced training activities at higher education level, increase in the number of scholarships and funding for them under the Erasmus programmes, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | Leonardo da Vinci: for all aspects of vocational education and training, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | Grundtvig: for adult education, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | a cross-cutting programme: incorporating four key activities to cover policy issues, to make specific provision for language learning and activity related to information and communication technologies where these fall outside the specific programmes, and to provide a better dissemination service.  Special education needs for persons suffering from disabilities or ‘dys’ conditions can be addressed in all the abovementioned sectoral programmes, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | Jean Monnet: to support European institutions and associations active in the field of European integration as well as the establishment of a board to manage the multiannual funding by the Union of a European Parliament professorship, the ‘EP-Geremek European Civilization Chair’ established at the College of Europe in Warsaw in honour of Professor Bronisław Geremek. All activities and funding, which could also include the granting of an annual award, will be jointly managed by the College of Europe in Warsaw with full cooperation with the Geremek foundation (‘Centrum Imienia Profesora Bronisława Geremka’). Part of the appropriations, in full respect of the distribution of allocations foreseen in the legal basis, should support the Academy of European Law (ERA) development strategy aiming at the expansion of conference activities and the necessary increase in staff numbers. |

This appropriation is also intended to finance a Leonardo Mobility System network. The creation of this network will allow those organisations active in a given field, such as trade unions, commercial chambers, students or youth associations to work together in order to help the candidates applying for the Leonardo da Vinci programme to find a company/enterprise where they can complete their traineeship.

The purpose of this system is three-fold:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | first of all, to facilitate the candidate’s search for a company, where she or he could complete a traineeship according to his/her profile, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | secondly, to make sure that companies and enterprises are informed about the system’s existence to prevent the rejection of an application due to a company’s ignorance of the Leonardo da Vinci programme, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | finally, to promote the Leonardo da Vinci programme itself. This promotion is especially necessary considering that the candidates applying for this grant outnumber the enterprises available. |

These actions and programmes should strive to strengthen intercultural dialogue.

The integrated programme and its actions should comprise measures to promote language learning at all educational and vocational training levels, for learners (general education, vocational training and continuous training) as well as for teachers and trainers.

The integrated programme should include measures to promote civic education (teaching and learning) on European Democratic Citizenship including studies of Europe and the Union in Member States’ secondary schools. Particular attention should be given to encouraging the multilateral school partnership in this field

The programme should support bilateral cooperation projects aiming at the teaching of neighbouring countries’ languages on both sides of the border. Projects will be geared in particular towards young people and schools. The programme will also provide for the creation of an appropriate internet platform, accessible to all interested persons, that facilitates this development through a help desk providing self-study aids, an overview on cooperation possibilities and best-practice exchange.

These measures should also consist of initiatives intended to safeguard, foster and strengthen lesser-used languages, such as the languages of smaller Member States, enabling them to sustain and increase their vitality, especially in the literary, journalistic and broadcasting fields, which are the prime source of linguistic innovation, as well as of conservation, thus putting into greater practice the Union’s philosophy of language diversity, multilingualism and subsidiarity.

The suggested increase of this appropriation is intended to cover, inter alia, supplementary expenditure relating to the activities of the European University Institute (EUI) in accordance with Article 36(2)(b) of Decision No 1720/2006/EC. A complementary contribution should be allocated to the Global Governance Programme. This increase will improve and broaden the PhD training with respect to global governance and world affairs at the EUI; set up a European Academy of Global Governance devoted to top level training, discussion and debates; create a community of up to 10 new junior fellows specialised in these areas; attract at the EUI an important number of senior scholars drawn from the faculty of other Member States’ universities and research centres, and international institutions; develop different strands of basic and applied research on issues of global governance that may, in time, constitute independent units of research; promote and support a variety of events, conferences and seminars on issues of global governance; create a European network of global governance.

This is the extension of an action already covered in the general budget of the Union for 2010.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contribution from the Swiss Confederation for participating in Union/Community programmes entered under Item 6 0 3 3 of the statement of revenue may be used for additional expenditure in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the costs of studies for students coming from the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) countries and for the related academic activities.

The New Enhanced ENP, as projected by the Council and the European Parliament in their respective decisions and resolutions, especially in the light of the two major neighbourhood political projects, the Union for the Mediterranean and the Eastern Partnership, necessitates preparing future European and neighbouring countries interlocutors, i.e. personnel for EU-ENP-related jobs. They should be fully and professionally acquainted with the substance and spirit of Union policies, law and institutions and the acquis of the Union. That requires a focused and sophisticated offer, which can be delivered only by a highly recognised academic institution already specialising in this field that is the College of Europe. The two campuses of the College of Europe — one in Bruges, Belgium, close to the Brussels institutions and expertise, the other in Natolin/Warsaw, Poland, specialising in non-Union neighbourhood and border policies (the Frontex Agency being based in Warsaw) — are best-placed to offer tailor-made programmes.

Remarks

On 11 July 2007, the Commission adopted the White Paper on Sport (COM(2007) 391), which is the first comprehensive Commission policy document in this area. The White Paper creates a policy framework for sport at Union level, defines its specific role and values, and identifies problems and challenges. In its conclusion, the White Paper states that ‘the Commission may return to this issue and indicate further steps in the context of a new Treaty provision’. The White Paper thus paved the way towards the implementation of the provisions on sport in the Treaty of Lisbon (Article 165 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union).

The objective of the preparatory action in the field of sport for 2009 and for 2010 was to prepare future Union actions in the field of sport with a view to the implementation of the Treaty of Lisbon on the basis of priorities set out in the White Paper on Sport.

This objective should be also pursued in 2011 with the proposed preparatory action which will contribute to identifying future policy actions in the area of sport which can serve as a basis for a future Union programme. This should ultimately provide a Union added value through the identification and dissemination of best practices and innovative approaches and through the development of comparative research. In view of the specific organisational characteristics of the sport sector, the programme would address categories of stakeholders who are not addressed by existing Union programmes, and in particular sport organisations. It should create a critical mass by grouping together sport-related organisations and projects around specific themes (e.g. the promotion of social inclusion in and through sport, good governance in sport, actions against violence and racism, and aspects of health-enhancing physical activity which were not covered in 2009). It should also cover projects aiming at developing the European dimension in sport by increasing the competitive level of European sport disciplines (e.g. by promoting the exchange of know-how and by providing support to trans-border joint sport competitions and championships between neighbouring regions and Member States).

Part of the appropriations should go to the support of a European wide network promoting ‘education through football’ composed of European schools and local organisations, set up by streetfootballworld, with a view to establishing the Euroschools 2012 project which aims to make a tangible and lasting contribution to the understanding of other cultures and social learning through sport addressing issues like Fair Play, intercultural dialogue, anti-discrimination and respect.

Remarks

Former Article 08 11 01

Europe needs to become more attractive to researchers, in order to increase Europe’s capacity and performance in research and technological development and to consolidate and further develop the European Research Area. Against the background of growing competition at world level, the development of an open and competitive European labour market for researchers with diversified, attractive career prospects is needed.

The added value of the support provided by the specific ‘People’ programme is the promotion of the international and intersectoral mobility of researchers as a key driver for European Innovation. Marie Curie Actions also foster stronger cooperation between education, research and businesses from different countries in the training and career development of researchers to broaden their skills and prepare them for the jobs of tomorrow. A closer partnership between education and businesses should be further reinforced in order to increase knowledge transfers and enhance PhD training adapted to the needs of industry. By promoting employment conditions in line with the European researcher’s charter and code, they contribute to making a career in research in Europe more attractive.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article.

Background

The integrated approach advocated in the Europe 2020 Strategy involves the development of synergies and combined actions between research, innovation and education policies (so-called ‘knowledge triangle’). In this perspective ‘knowledge partnerships’ are explicitly mentioned in the Europe 2020 Strategy, under the flagship initiative Innovation Union (‘To promote knowledge partnerships and strengthen links between education, business, research and innovation, including through the EIT’).

Many efforts have been devoted at Union level to strengthen the relations between research and innovation and between research and education. The Union has also shown political determination to enhance relations between business and academia, e.g. as one of the core elements of the modernisation agenda for universities and in the context of the European Higher Education Area. But the concrete implementation so far has been less structured and systematic, leaving the relation between education and innovation somehow as the neglected link of the knowledge triangle.

The University-Business Forum has opened a dialogue between the two worlds about how they can work more closely together and has shown that there is an appetite on both sides for partnership focused on education, with a view to ensuring that education delivers high-level and highly valued skills, underpinned at all times by high levels of adaptability, entrepreneurship and creative and innovative capacities.

Objective

Building on both these initiatives, a pilot project would propose to fund Knowledge Partnerships which should be a structured, coming together of businesses with education and training institutions to deliver new curricula, new courses and to develop new, innovative ways of delivering education. The outcomes of the Knowledge Partnerships could inspire education and training institutions in Europe to modernise their curricula etc. The aim at all times should be to ensure that graduates in all fields will emerge from their education with in-depth knowledge of specific research issues as well as with high levels of T-shaped skills, ensuring high employability, adaptability and entrepreneurial, creative and innovative attitudes.

Implementation

This pilot project will set up a partnership where a solidly structured consortium involving businesses and industry (including venture capitalists, incubation firms, etc.), education and training institutions will deliver new curricula, new courses and new ways of delivering education (e.g. internships in industry and business involving trans-national mobility to offer on-the-job learning opportunities, e-courses, interactive learning methods, etc.) with the objective of developing the following skills at master and PhD levels:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | robust entrepreneurship skills in the broadest sense enabling graduates to creatively respond to a complex and rapidly changing environment; encompassing but not confined to setting up a business or running a small and medium-sized enterprise, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | business skills (e.g. basic economics, financial literacy, developing market research, drafting a business plan, raising finance, sales techniques, running a business meeting), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | inter-personal skills (team working, communication, self-confidence, taking initiative, problem-solving, taking calculated risks, leadership). |

Legal basis

Pilot project within the meaning of Article 49(6) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to fund communication activities mainly around communication priorities at Commission level and at Union level.

The appropriation is intended primarily to cover the provision of information to citizens, as far as possible in their mother tongue, about the Union’s present and future options and involving them in a debate on this subject.

It covers in particular activities such as:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | ad hoc communication operations on a national or international scale that fit in with the communication priorities, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | communication operations organised in partnership with the European Parliament and/or the Member States in order to create synergies between the means of each partner and to coordinate their information and communication activities on the European Union. One of the privileged tools to address this approach is the management partnership. |

This appropriation also covers the repayment of travel and related expenses of persons invited to follow the work of the Commission.

Implemented in close cooperation between the Union institutions and the authorities in the Member States and/or civil society, these activities take account of specific national and regional features.

It coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion on the priorities for the following years based on a report drawn up by the Commission.

| --- | --- |
| — | the Representations’ publications (paper newsletters and periodicals): each Representation produces one or more publications that are distributed among multipliers and cover various fields (social, economic and political), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the dissemination (also through a decentralised network) of specific basic information on the European Union (in all the official Union languages) for the general public, coordinated from headquarters, and promotion of the publications. |

Publishing costs cover, among other things, preparation and drafting (including authors’ fees), freelance editing, use of documentation, reproduction of documents, data purchase or management, editing, translation, revision (including checking the concordance of texts), printing, posting on the Internet or installation in any other electronic medium, distribution, storage, dissemination and promotion of the publications.

Remarks

The second health programme replaces the previous programme established by Decision No 1786/2002/EC and covers the period 2008-2013.

Since 2008, as far as the health area is concerned, the programme has been focusing on three pillars where action at Union level is essential:

(1) Health information

The objective of this pillar is to strengthen the collection, analysis, exchange and dissemination of health-related information in the Union — including on disabilities and ‘dys’ conditions — which is necessary to provide a solid foundation for health policymaking and is also needed by professionals for their work and by citizens to enable them to make healthy lifestyle choices.

Actions will further include research into multiple sclerosis, with special attention being paid to identifying the factors behind the difference in the incidence of the disease between northern and southern parts of Europe.

Actions should also include measures to help boost research into the possible causes of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), with particular attention being paid to professional sports and the possible influence of substance abuse in the world of sport.

(2) Health security

The overall objective is to protect citizen against health threats.

An effective rapid response capability is needed to avoid threats to public health, for example arising from communicable diseases or chemical or biological attacks. Tackling such threats needs to be coordinated effectively at Union level. Union integration based on the principle of free movement increases the need for vigilance, in order to respond to major cross-border health threats such as avian flu, or bioterrorism.

(3) Promote health to improve prosperity and solidarity

The overall objective is to contribute to the prosperity of the Union by fostering healthy ageing and bridging inequalities as well as to enhance solidarity between national health systems.

Actions will include initiatives to increase healthy life years and promote healthy ageing, to explore health’s impact on productivity and labour participation, and to support the reduction of inequalities between Member States and investment in health, thus contributing to the Europe 2020 strategy, and to productivity and growth. Actions will also enhance solidarity between health systems, including cooperation on shared challenges, thus facilitating the development of a Union framework for safe, high-quality and efficient health services. Actions should also include initiatives to evaluate, by independent organisations, the quality of service provided by emergency medical services from the moment an alert is launched by citizens (e.g. through emergency call numbers) until the victim is transferred to hospital care; the aim is to help improve emergency medical services on the basis of comparable data and the identification of best practices to be exchanged between Member States.

Actions will further include the promotion of health by tackling environmental, addiction and lifestyle determinants.

Non-governmental organisations are key players in the implementation of the programme. Therefore, they should be allocated adequate funds.

Actions will also include appropriate initiatives to follow up on the recommendations obtained through the Green Paper consultation on mental health, and in particular on strategies to prevent suicide across the lifespan.

The objective is also for the Commission to implement the Health In All Policies strategy under the Structural Funds. Such a project should cover proposals for methods on how health issues could be incorporated — in accordance with the Health In All Policies strategy — into regional development projects. The project aims to enhance overall health in the European Union by means of capacity building in the context of regional development agencies.

The budget should cover training courses, international events, exchange of experiences, good practices, and international collaboration with a view to the practical use of Health Impact Assessment (HIA) both for local government and development agencies and for individuals or companies willing to apply for a grant provided by the Union.

With regard to the crucial importance of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Union, they should be provided with professional support for compliance with environmental health rules, and to help them make positive changes to environmental health affecting company operation.

A European database on health issues and a database on environment issues should be interconnected so that further research could be improved for analysing the link between environment quality and state of health.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

The Union’s financial assistance helps accelerate the eradication or control of animal diseases by providing funds to supplement national financial resources and contributes to harmonising measures at Union level. The bulk of these diseases or infections are zoonoses communicable to man (BSE, brucellosis, avian influenza, salmonellosis, tuberculosis, etc.). Moreover, the persistence of the diseases in question hampers the smooth operation of the internal market; fighting them helps to improve the level of public health and to boost food safety in the Union.

Remarks

The outbreak of some animal diseases in the Union could possibly have a major impact on the operation of the internal market and on the Union’s commercial relations with third countries. Thus, it is important for the Union to make a financial contribution in order to allow the fastest eradication possible of any outbreak of a serious infectious disease in Member States by deploying Union resources to fight these diseases.

Remarks

This preparatory action was launched in 2008 to cover the costs of developing improved control posts (resting points) for animals during long journeys. In the interests of animal health and welfare, it has been necessary to introduce specific measures to avoid stress, for example, when animals are unloaded and reloaded, and to prevent the spread of infectious diseases.

The budgetary authority allocated new credits to pursue this action in 2009 and 2010.

These actions can also be used to provide supporting services to Member States in duly substantiated emergency situations requiring urgent action at the external borders of the Member States.

Moreover, each year the Commission will draw up a list of specific actions to be implemented by the Member States and, where appropriate, in cooperation with the Agency, that contribute to the development of the common integrated border management system by addressing weaknesses at strategic border points identified in risk analyses carried out by the Agency.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover earlier commitments.

The purpose of the action is to test hypotheses in the field of migration management. On the basis of its evaluation, it could lead to the development of a global approach, an objective set by the Union. The action will be based on three related components.

Component 1: Financial assistance for the employment of immigrants returning to their countries of origin with which there are readmission agreements.

Component 2: Organising information campaigns, in countries of origin, for applicants for immigration into the Union so as to inform them in particular about the dangers of illegal immigration.

Component 3: Reception in dignity and solidarity — Assistance to Member States in coping with the reception of irregular migrants arriving by sea. Measures would:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | assist Member States affected by sudden arrivals of migrants, e.g. by improving and exchanging good/best practices and providing interpreters and medical and legal teams, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | assist Member States to enhance reception quality and capacity, including temporary capacity, reception of irregular migrants at arrival points, e.g. by providing first aid and transport to adequate reception centres and improving/increasing reception facilities and conditions at those facilities, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | assist Member States in pooling resources to address particular pressures on their asylum systems, in particular through activities where specific expertise is needed, sharing knowledge and promoting joint approaches to address mass arrivals of asylum seekers at the external border of the Union. |

For component 3, recipients of funding should be national authorities. Projects may include partnerships with other Member State authorities, international organisations and non-governmental organisations.

For all components, part of the appropriations should be used by the Commission to help in the management of this action (external experts, studies, etc.).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to finance, as regards structural measures, projects and measures concerning the reception of refugees, displaced persons and asylum seekers which meet the conditions governing eligibility for Union financial aid.

It is intended to support Member States’ efforts to integrate refugees and other persons granted supplementary support, and to allow displaced persons to lead a life for which they themselves are responsible, through measures taken chiefly in the following areas:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | facilitating access to employment, including vocational training, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | acquisition of knowledge of the language, society, culture and institutions of the host country, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | facilitating access to housing and to the medical and social infrastructure of the host country, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | support for persons in particular need of protection, such as women refugees, unaccompanied minors and torture victims, including victims of forced abortion, female genital mutilation or coerced sterilisation and rape victims, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | integration into local structures and activities, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | improvement in public awareness and understanding of refugees’ situation, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | analysis of the situation of refugees in the Union, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | training on gender issues and child protection for officials, healthcare workers and police officers at reception centres, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | separate accommodation for single women and girls. |

Moreover, it is intended to support efforts of the voluntary burden sharing operations by Member States, such as the resettlement, reception and integration by Member States of refugees coming from third countries and recognised by UNHCR and transfers of applicants and beneficiaries of international protection from one Member State to another which grants them equivalent protection.

Part of this appropriation will be used for supporting the Member States in direct cooperation with United Nations humanitarian and other agencies which on a voluntary basis extend resettlement in a flexible manner in acute refugee situations. The focus will be on the most vulnerable groups and cases where other durable solutions are regarded as having been ruled out.

Particular attention should be given to when the appropriation can be used to demonstrate a significant and tangible act of solidarity at European level which can produce added value as part of a broader approach on delivery of humanitarian support to a country or region.

At the Commission’s initiative, this appropriation is also intended to cover transnational actions or actions of interest to the Union as a whole (Union actions) concerning asylum policy and measures applicable to the target population of the Fund, in particular to offer adequate support to joint efforts by Member States to identify, share and promote best practices and establish effective cooperation structures in order to enhance the quality of decision making.

This appropriation is also intended to cover earlier commitments from ERF I and II, including those regarding voluntary repatriation.

It is also intended to finance a Union action to compile data for collaboration and exchange of best practices among childcare workers in closed detention centres for asylum seekers and immigrants.

A solidarity mechanism will be established to facilitate the voluntary reallocation of refugees and beneficiaries of international protection from Member States which are facing severe pressure from immigration flows to other Member States. The mechanism would be established at Union level and brought into operation on a trial basis so that it may eventually be continued under a Common European Asylum System. Member States would freely determine all aspects of the selection process on a voluntary basis. The Commission would set the framework, issue guidelines, encourage participation and facilitate management and coordination.

The mechanism should be established in line with the European Council Conclusions of 18 and 19 June 2009. The Conclusions note that, in view of the present humanitarian emergency, concrete measures need to be quickly put in place and implemented. The European Council called for the coordination of voluntary measures for internal reallocation of beneficiaries of international protection present in the Member States exposed to specific and disproportionate pressures and highly vulnerable persons and welcomed the intention of the Commission to take initiatives in this respect, starting with a pilot project.

Remarks

In the event of mass influxes of refugees or displaced persons, emergency measures in the following areas can be taken under this article:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | reception and accommodation, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | provision of subsistence funds, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | medical, psychological and other assistance, aimed in particular at minors and including specialised assistance to women and girls who have fallen victim to harassment in any form or to criminal acts (rape, violence or specific forms of torture such as forced abortion, female genital mutilation or coerced sterilisation) or have suffered because of poor conditions as refugees, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | necessary staffing and administrative costs in connection with reception and carrying out the measures, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | expert missions and ancillary technical assistance for the identification of displaced persons, |

| — | logistical and transport costs. |

Under this provision, emergency measures can also be taken to address situations of particular pressure, characterised by the sudden arrival at particular points on the borders of a large number of third-country nationals who may be in need of international protection, where this places exceptionally heavy and urgent demands on the reception facilities, the asylum system or the infrastructure of the Member State(s) concerned and may give rise to risks to human life, well-being or access to protection provided for under Union legislation.

The duration of such measures must not exceed six months. Besides the measures listed above, emergency measures may include legal aid and language assistance and the provision of translation and interpretation services, country of origin information or expertise and other measures contributing to the rapid identification of persons who may be in need of international protection and to the fair and efficient processing of asylum applications.

Remarks

New item

The main objective of this pilot project is to establish a network of contacts and discussion between targeted municipalities and local authorities in Member States which have just started a resettlement programme, or wish to participate in the near future, and Member States which are experienced in resettlement, drawing on UNHCR and non-governmental organisation (NGO) experiences and best practices in the resettlement and reintegration of refugees. The pilot project will cover the following actions:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | identifying municipalities or local authorities in Member States that have just started resettlement programmes (e.g. Portugal, Romania) or are about to do so (e.g. Spain) and arranging meetings with selected municipalities or local authorities in resettlement countries (e.g. the UK and the Netherlands) with a view to strengthening ‘new’ resettlement programmes and ensuring that they are of a high quality and sustainable; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | identifying municipalities or local authorities or NGOs in Member States not yet participating in resettlement programmes, but wishing to join the network with a view to future participation in such programmes; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | holding meetings of representatives of the targeted local authorities and municipalities involved, along with the UNHCR, participating NGOs and representatives of resettled refugees, to lay down the activities to be developed jointly, including visits, exchanges of experience, training and thematic meetings focusing on issues such as housing, education and employment; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | designing a form for collecting information from the various stakeholders on procedures, types of monitoring prior to resettlement, types of information collected on the refugees to be resettled (including cultural, health and educational issues and diet), infrastructure, human resources, accommodation, reception, actions taken after resettlement for the integration of refugees, community participation in the process, any economic, legal or educational aid, the role of refugees already resettled in the integration process, and cooperation with NGOs; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | creating a task force, with the necessary human and technical resources, to make the practical arrangements for the project and in particular to provide for the necessary meetings, collect available information, create a website and content for it, thus increasing the exchange of information between the stakeholders in the resettlement process, and create links with existing resettlement-related projects and/or websites. This website will also allow information on past and future meetings between municipalities or local authorities to be made available to all interested parties on a systematic basis; |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | collating the information gathered by the task force, which will then circulate it for discussion on the network, in order to draw conclusions on best practices. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | The experience gained from the pilot project will be recorded and passed on to the Resettlement Unit in the European Asylum Support Office (EASO) once it has been set up. |

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover earlier commitments.

The aim of this heading is to introduce throughout the Union a mechanism known as ‘Amber Alert’ (in the United States of America and Greece) and ‘Alerte-Enlèvement’ (in France), while stressing the need for cross-border interconnection.

Following the successful use, in France and Greece (and also in the USA and Canada), of systems alerting the public in cases of child abduction (or disappearance) and when children’s health or lives may be at serious risk, the Commission would like to help Member States to put similar mechanisms in place nationally. If all Member States adopt such mechanisms and communication schemes are put in place, resolving cross-border cases will be possible and easier.

This budget heading is intended to finance the additional costs which might arise as a result of putting this mechanism in place. Costs involved in setting up round-the-clock contact points, freephone lines and information technology networks would be typical costs.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of priority information measures in the field of justice and home affairs.

It covers information and communication measures in the field of justice and home affairs in relation to the establishment of an area of freedom, security and justice (internal web sites, public events, communication products, Eurobarometer surveys, etc.). These measures are designed to be an effective channel of communication and dialogue between the people of the Union, stakeholders, and the Union institutions and take account of specific national, regional and local characteristics, in close cooperation with the Member State authorities.

The Commission has adopted a series of communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information and communication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final and COM(2002) 350 final). These communications propose an interinstitutional framework for cooperation extended to Member States for the development of a communication and information policy strategy for the Union.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission, lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of Union information and communication policy. It coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion on the priorities for the following years on the basis of information provided by the Commission.

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of an awareness-raising campaign by the Commission, in cooperation with civil society, on Union citizens’ rights under Articles 18 to 25 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.

This appropriation is also intended to cover the funding of the information campaigns with regards to new transparency measures based on Article 15 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2001 regarding public access to European Parliament, Council and Commission documents ([OJ L 145, 31.5.2001, p. 43](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2001:145:TOC)).

Remarks

As part of the rationalisation and simplification of the instruments for external actions for the Financial Framework 2007-2013, the Aeneas programme, which provides for financial and technical assistance to third countries in the areas of migration and asylum, and was adopted on 10 March 2004 — and which followed the preparatory actions for 2001 to 2003 and the Communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament of 3 December 2002 entitled ‘Integrating migration issues in the European Union’s relations with third countries’ (COM(2002) 703 final) — was replaced by a thematic programme for cooperation with third countries in these fields under the financing instrument for development cooperation (DCI) (Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006).

The general aim of the DCI is to make the Union’s external assistance more effective. Under this programme, the objective of the thematic programme on cooperation with third countries in the areas of migration and asylum is to support third countries in their efforts to ensure better management of migratory flows in all their dimensions. Appropriations are used to provide, in a specific and complementary way, technical and financial assistance for third countries to support them in these efforts.

The Union programme for the cooperation with third countries and regions of origin and transit has the objective of fostering the links between migration and development, as well as to mitigate the brain drain from south to north in the process, to promote well-managed labour migration, to fight illegal migration, to fight smuggling and the trafficking of human beings and facilitate re-admission, to protect migrants and to help third countries to improve their capacities to fulfil their international obligations in the field of asylum and migration.

This Union cooperation programme will finance appropriate actions which will join in a coherent way national and regional Union cooperation and development strategies regarding the third countries concerned and complete the actions — in particular in the fields of migration, asylum, border control, refugees and displaced people — provided for in the implementation of these strategies and financed from other Union instruments in the field of cooperation and development.

This thematic programme will, in the context of its new strategy, also take into account migration that results from climate change. The respect of democratic principles and the rule of law, as well as of human rights and of fundamental freedoms, will constitute an essential element for the application of this instrument. If necessary, and as far as possible, the actions financed will be associated with measures aimed at strengthening democracy and the rule of law and compliance with international instruments in this field, including the 1951 Geneva Convention relating to the status of refugees.

Partners eligible for financial support under this appropriation may include regional and international organisations and agencies (in particular, United Nations agencies), non-governmental organisations or other non-State actors, federal, national, provincial and local governments of third countries, their departments and agencies, institutes, associations and public and private operators.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and other donor countries, including in both cases their public and parastatal agencies, or from international organisations to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and managed by the Commission on their behalf, pursuant to the relevant basic act, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations. Such contributions under Article 6 3 3 of the statement of revenue constitute assigned revenue under Article 18(1)(aa) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will be determined by the contribution agreement for each operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for each chapter.

Appropriations under this article are subject to evaluations as established in Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006. These evaluations shall include aspects of input activities and chain of results (output, outcome, impact). The findings of the evaluations shall be used in the formulation of subsequent measures financed with these appropriations.

Remarks

The quick release of financing through the Instrument for Stability is designed to address situations of urgency, crisis or emerging crisis, a situation posing a threat to democracy, law and order, to the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms, to the security and safety of individuals, situations threatening to escalate into armed conflict or to destabilise the country concerned and where such situations are likely to jeopardise the beneficial effects of assistance and cooperation policies and programmes, their effectiveness and/or conditions for their proper implementation.

This appropriation is intended to cover an integrated programme of response measures designed to re-establish the minimum conditions necessary for the conduct of assistance under the Union’s long-term assistance instruments. Such programmes will ensure a smooth link between relief, rehabilitation and development. They shall also provide complementary measures falling under Community competence relating to measures adopted under the CFSP, as part of a comprehensive Union approach to crises.

The appropriation is also intended to cover response measures to prevent and reduce climate-change-induced hazards, in particular management of water resources, in cases where these hazards risk escalating into security threats.

Operations covered will include:

|  |  |

Remarks

This appropriation, which is complementary to the capacity building activities as provided for by the Peacebuilding Partnership under the Instrument for Stability, is intended to finance a programme of NGO-led peacebuilding activities in order to support the Union’s commitments to prevent conflict and build peace outside its borders.

Activities to be financed under this pilot project will include: research on and analysis of specific conflicts; support for peace processes, mediation and dialogue; support to disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration (DDR) processes and broader post-conflict economic development; support to local actor participation in peace settlements; civil society involvement in security sector reform (SSR), justice sector reform and transitional justice processes; promotion of conflict-sensitive development practices; international and national-level advocacy work to encourage peacebuilding and the prevention of violent conflict; the development and management of early warning systems; the promotion of the role of women in peacebuilding; unarmed civilian peacekeeping; and the deployment of professionals to sustain local actors by reducing and preventing violence, and by supporting dialogue, sustainable peace and a conflict-resilient society.

The pilot project could also serve as a test case for Union support for NGO-led peacebuilding activities and could thus lead to the eventual establishment of a permanent mechanism for short-, medium- and long-term financing in this area.

Remarks

The Union aims to establish an area of prosperity and friendly neighbourliness involving Member States and the neighbouring partner countries [(5)](#ntr5-). To that effect the Union has established agreements with most neighbouring countries as well as European Neighbourhood Policy Action Plans to implement such agreements. This negotiated framework is aimed at developing a stronger and deeper relation based on shared values and mutual interest and involving a significant degree of economic integration and political cooperation. The Union has also engaged with Russia in a genuine strategic partnership, founded on common interests and shared values and based on the creation of four ‘common spaces’. The appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover cooperation measures aimed at supporting the implementation of such agreements. Cooperation with those countries with whom such agreements are not yet signed or do not exist — such as for Belarus, Libya or Syria — will be based on Union policy objectives.

19 08 02   Cross-border cooperation (CBC) — European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI)

Remarks

Cross-border cooperation on the Union’s external borders is a key priority both in the European Neighbourhood Policy and in the Union’s Strategic Partnership with Russia, as well as within the Black Sea Synergy. The adoption of the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI) has considerably enhanced the scope for cross-border cooperation, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Under the new approach, cross-border cooperation programmes established on the Union’s external border will draw on funds from both the external and internal headings of the general budget of the Union and be implemented in accordance with a single set of rules, namely those established under Regulation (EC) No 1638/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 2006 laying down general provisions establishing a European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument ([OJ L 310, 9.11.2006, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:310:TOC)). The global amounts of the contributions from the two headings are provided in the two budget Items presented under this article.

This appropriation is intended to fund a number of cross-border cooperation programmes, established along all the land and maritime borders. Such programmes will provide a tangible signal that the Union does not want to establish new dividing lines and they will also strengthen the partnership among border regions of the Union and neighbouring countries and help them to deal with common development problems. They will focus on the following five main objectives:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | promoting economic and social development in regions on both sides of common borders, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | working together to address common challenges, in fields such as the environment, public health and the prevention of and the fight against organised crime, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | ensuring efficient and secure borders, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | promoting local, cross-border ‘people-to-people’ actions, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | fostering the development of civil society, inter alia, to promote social inclusion. |

Appropriations under this article will also be used for actions aimed at informing the general public and the potential beneficiaries of assistance and at increasing the visibility of Union assistance.

Remarks

The purpose of development cooperation under this heading is primarily its contribution to support the promotion of democracy, good governance, respect for human rights and for the rule of law, and fostering sustainable development and economic integration, as well as to achieving the Millennium Development Goals.

In accordance with the Commission Declaration concerning Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation ([OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:378:TOC)) (DCI), for countries defined as Official Development Assistance (ODA) recipients by the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), the Commission will continue to report annually on the benchmark, used in the past but now superseded, of 35 % of assistance to developing countries to be allocated to social infrastructure and services, recognising that the Union contribution must be seen as part of the overall donor support to the social sectors and that a degree of flexibility must be the norm. Moreover, also in accordance with that Commission Declaration, the Commission will endeavour to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its allocated assistance under country programmes covered by the DCI will be dedicated, by the end of 2009, to basic and secondary education and basic health, through project, programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across all geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance is involved.

Before July each year, the Commission will provide to the European Parliament and the Council an annual report on the Union’s development policy and external assistance, meeting all the Commission’s regulatory reporting requirements and giving full details of development cooperation, especially the extent to which it has met its objectives. In particular, the report will:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | present the strategic objectives of the Union’s development policy and its contribution towards the previous 35 % benchmark for social infrastructure and services and the current 20 % benchmark for basic and secondary education and basic health, in the context of the geographical cooperation under the DCI, and assess the efficiency and effectiveness of cooperation, including progress made in coordinating aid, in improving the coherence of the Union’s strategy in its external actions, and in integrating the cross-cutting issues such as gender, human rights, conflict prevention and the environment, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | present the main results of evaluation and monitoring reports, as an indication of the extent to which its actions are achieving their objectives, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | summarise the key features and events of cooperation in each geographical region, and |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | provide financial information on the support given to each sector, in accordance with OECD reporting criteria. |

With the exception of humanitarian aid, assistance to governments should not be provided if the governments are responsible for clear worsening of the situation in the field of democracy, the rule of law and respect for fundamental rights and freedoms.

This appropriation also covers capacity-building actions to assist agricultural producers in developing countries to meet Union sanitary and phytosanitary standards necessary for access to the Union market.

Where assistance is delivered via budget support, the Commission shall support efforts of partner countries to develop parliamentary oversight and audit capacities in line with Article 25(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006.

Part of this appropriation is intended to support, amongst others, initiatives such as the EU-ALC Foundation (decided at the summit of EU-ALC Heads of States and Governments) and the Biarritz Forum.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and other donor countries, including in both cases their public and parastatal agencies, or from international organisations to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and managed by the Commission on their behalf, pursuant to the relevant basic act, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations. Such contributions under Article 6 3 3 of the statement of revenue constitute assigned revenue under Article 18(1)(aa) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will be determined by the contribution agreement for each operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for each chapter.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this item. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Part of this appropriation is intended to be used, with due regard for the Financial Regulation, for operations carried out by senior volunteer experts from the Union who come under the European Senior Services Network (ESSN), including technical assistance, advisory services and training in selected public or private sector enterprises.

Appropriations under this article are subject to evaluations as established in Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006. These evaluations shall include aspects of input activities and chain of results (output, outcome, impact). The findings of the evaluations shall be used in the formulation of subsequent measures financed with these appropriations.

With the exception of humanitarian aid, and implementation aid by NGOs or by the United Nations’ agencies or by impartial operators, assistance to governments should not be provided if the governments are responsible for clear worsening of the situation in the field of democracy, the rule of law and respect for fundamental rights and freedoms.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover cooperation measures for middle income countries and other developing countries in Latin America.

This appropriation is intended to finance cooperation measures which do not fulfil the criteria for Official Development Assistance (ODA) as established by the Development Assistance Committee of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD/DAC) and which therefore fall outside the scope of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation ([OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:378:TOC)) (Article 2(4)), in particular measures for cooperation in sectors capable of developing independently, the result being that the investment from the general budget of the Union makes no contribution towards combating poverty in Latin American countries.

Remarks

The purpose of development cooperation under this heading is primarily its contribution to achieving the Millennium Development Goals as well as the promotion of democracy, good governance, respect for human rights and for the rule of law, and fostering sustainable development and economic integration. In accordance with the Commission Declaration concerning Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation ([OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:378:TOC)) (DCI), for countries defined as Official Development Assistance (ODA) recipients‚ by the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), the Commission will continue to report annually on the benchmark, used in the past but now superseded, of 35 % of assistance to developing countries to be allocated to social infrastructure and services, recognising that the Union contribution must be seen as a part of the overall donor support to the social sectors and that a degree of flexibility must be the norm.

Moreover, also in accordance with that Commission Declaration, the Commission will endeavour to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its allocated assistance under country programmes covered by the DCI will be dedicated to basic and secondary education and basic health, through project, programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across all geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance is involved.

Before July each year, the Commission will provide to the European Parliament and the Council an annual report on the Union’s development policy and external assistance, meeting all the Commission’s regulatory reporting requirements and giving full details of development cooperation, especially the extent to which it has met its objectives. In particular, the report will:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | present the strategic objectives of the Union’s development policy and its contribution towards the previous 35 % benchmark for social infrastructure and services and the current 20 % benchmark for basic and secondary education and for basic health, in the context of geographical cooperation under the DCI, and assess the efficiency and effectiveness of cooperation, including progress made in coordinating aid, in improving the coherence of the Union’s strategy in its external actions, and in integrating cross-cutting issues such as gender, human rights, conflict prevention and the environment, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | present the main results of evaluation and monitoring reports, as an indication of the extent to which its actions are achieving their objectives, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | summarise the key features and events of cooperation in each geographical region, and |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | provide financial information on the support given to each sector, in accordance with OECD reporting criteria. |

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover cooperation measures, in middle income countries and other developing countries in Asia, which do not fulfil the criteria for Official Development Assistance (ODA) as established by the Development Assistance Committee of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD/DAC) and which therefore fall outside the scope of Article 2(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation ([OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:378:TOC)), in particular measures for cooperation in sectors capable of developing independently, the result being that the investment from the general budget of the Union makes no contribution towards combating poverty in Asian countries.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of priority information and communication activities directed towards the citizens of the Union and dealing with the Union’s external policies as a whole.

The areas which will be covered by information activities include those below, but may embrace other aspects of the Union’s external relations, particularly in relation to the future of the Union’s external policy:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | addressing the weak public perception of external assistance. The objective is to make clear that external assistance is an integral part of what the Union does and is one of the crucial policies that define the Union and its role in the world, and to raise awareness of the fact that the Union is delivering tangible results on behalf of Union citizens to fight poverty and to provide high-quality sustainable development worldwide, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the ‘European Neighbourhood Policy’ (ENP). The (ENP) was launched on the basis of a communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament of 11 March 2003 entitled ‘Wider Europe — Neighbourhood: A new framework for relations with our eastern and southern neighbours’ (COM(2003) 104 final). The actions which are part of this activity will continue to provide information on the activities of the Union in the framework of its ‘European Neighbourhood Policy’, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | information activities, to be carried out in cooperation with the Council, on the aims and development of the common foreign and security policy, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the organisation of visits for groups of representatives of civil society. |

The Commission has adopted two communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information and communication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final and COM(2002) 350 final). They propose an interinstitutional framework for cooperation between the institutions and with the Member States for the development of a communication and information policy strategy for the Union.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission, lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of Union information and communication policy. It coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion on the priorities for the following years on the basis of information provided by the Commission.

Irrespective of the beneficiary of the measure, no administrative expenditure against this article is authorised.

Remarks

Stresses that Union assistance should not be given to any authority, organisation or programme which supports or participates in the management of an action which involves such human rights abuses as coercive abortion, involuntary sterilisation or infanticide, especially where such actions apply their priorities though psychological, social, economic or legal pressure, thus finally implementing the specific Cairo International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) prohibition on coercion or compulsion in sexual and reproductive health matters; calls on the Commission to present a report on the implementation of the Union’s external assistance covering this programme.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to support a rapid and direct response to the increased food prices in developing countries, addressing the period between emergency aid and medium- to long-term development cooperation. The primary objectives of the assistance and cooperation shall be to encourage a positive supply response of the agricultural sector in targeted countries and regions, to support activities to respond rapidly and to mitigate directly the negative effects of high food prices in line with global food security objectives and to strengthen the productive capacities and the governance of the agricultural sector to enhance the sustainability of interventions.

Taking into account the specific country-level conditions, the eligible support measures are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | measures to improve access to agricultural inputs and services, including fertilisers and seeds, paying special attention to local facilities and availability, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | safety net measures aiming at maintaining or improving the agricultural productive capacity, and at addressing the basic food needs of the most vulnerable populations, including children, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | other small-scale measures aiming at increasing production based on country needs: microcredit, investment, equipment, infrastructure and storage; developing and strengthening associations and cooperatives so that they can build institutional and productive capacities; support for marginalised producers in developing countries so that they have access to prefinancing to help fund inputs and grants to work towards compliance with standards and regulations; as well as vocational training and support to professional groups in the agricultural sector. |

The assistance shall benefit developing countries and their populations. Resources are concentrated on a limited list of 50 high-priority target countries.

Remarks

This pilot project is intended to facilitate access to smallholder farmers to financial resources which should be used to stimulate agricultural production in developing countries. These appropriations should be channelled through organisations specialised in microfinance, including local banks and associations, which conform to recognised international standards of transparency, accountability and financial probity.

Taking into account the worldwide economic crisis, microfinance is needed more than ever before. The Union should take responsibility and attach importance to facilitating microfinance in developing countries.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to promote and implement the policy on the environment and on the sustainable management of natural resources, including energy, as it applies to the Union’s relations with developing countries and with Europe’s neighbours.

Financial support is provided to actions in five priority areas: (1) working upstream on Millennium Development Goal 7: promoting environmental sustainability; (2) promoting implementation of Union initiatives and helping developing countries to meet internationally agreed commitments; (3) improving expertise for integration and coherence; (4) strengthening environmental governance and Union leadership; and (5) supporting sustainable energy options in partner countries and regions.

Part of this appropriation is to be used for the mainstreaming of disaster risk reduction, based on ownership and national strategies of disaster-prone countries.

Support for sustainable energy options in partner countries and regions also includes appropriations to cover the Union contribution to the Global Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Fund (GEEREF). The objective of GEEREF is to mobilise public and private finance to help solve the financing gridlock for economic renewable energy projects and businesses, in developing countries and in (non-Union) economies in transition.

Support for climate change adaptation in partner countries and regions includes a contribution to further strengthen the implementation of the European Union’s Action Plan on Climate Change and Development through the Global Climate Change Alliance (GCCA). The GCCA is instrumental to enhance the cooperation between the Union and developing countries on climate change, particularly in the area of adaptation towards the impacts of climate change, which is most acute for many poor developing countries.

This programme is intended to benefit primarily the countries covered by the Financing instrument for development cooperation (DCI). However, in line with Article 38 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 allocating an amount to finance activities that benefit the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI) countries under the thematic programmes, an envelope of EUR 63 000 000 is foreseen for such countries. This appropriation is also intended to cover the completion of payments for actions funded under the former Article 21 02 05 ‘Environment in Developing Countries’.

In order to ensure full financial transparency pursuant to Articles 53 to 56 of the Financial Regulation, the Commission, when concluding or modifying agreements on the management and implementation of projects by international organisations, will make all efforts that they commit to sending all their internal and external audits to the European Court of Auditors and to the Internal Auditor of the Commission regarding the use of Union funds.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and other donor countries, including in both cases their public and parastatal agencies, or from international organisations to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and managed by the Commission on their behalf, pursuant to the relevant basic act, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations. These contributions pursuant to Article 6 3 3 of the statement of revenue constitutes assigned revenue pursuant to Article 18(1)(aa) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will be determined by the contribution agreement for each operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for each chapter.

Appropriations under this Article are subject to evaluations as established in Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006. These evaluations shall include aspects of input activities and chain of results (output, outcome, impact). The findings of the evaluations shall be used in the formulation of subsequent measures financed with these appropriations.

Conditions for releasing the reserve

The European Commission must present a politically binding document demonstrating that the ‘fast start’ climate finance package is truly additional, allocates Union resources to partner regions in a geographically balanced way and does not come at the expense of existing development cooperation programmes, as well as clear presentation of Member States’ financial contributions to the fast start mechanism and information on criteria for selection of the beneficiaries, details of agreements with the developing countries.

Remarks

This appropriation will be used to support the creation of the Global Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Fund (GEEREF), which aims at providing risk capital to different types of renewable energy and energy efficiency investment projects in developing countries, Europe and its neighbouring countries.

In the context of climate change, the Union needs to take the lead as regards measures to reduce the effects and causes of climate change. The exchange of good practices between the Member States in the area of energy efficiency will enable the Union to act in a coordinated fashion, thus helping to lay down joint energy policy strategies and actions. The Union should consider promoting energy efficiency as an instrument to combat the consequences of climate change and also stimulate the use of renewable energy resources in developing countries so as to make them less energy-dependent.

Appropriations under this Article are subject to evaluations as established in Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation.([OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:378:TOC)).

Remarks

For countries defined as Official Development Assistance (ODA) recipients by the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), a benchmark of 35 % of annual commitments has in the past been allocated to social infrastructure, mainly education and health, but also including macroeconomic assistance with social sector conditionality, recognising that the Union contribution must be seen as part of the overall donor support to the social sectors and that a degree of flexibility should be the norm. The Commission will continue to report on this benchmark.

Moreover, in parallel with the Commission declaration concerning Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation (DCI) ([OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:378:TOC)), the Commission will endeavour to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its allocated assistance under country programmes covered by the DCI will be dedicated, by 2009, to basic education and basic health through project programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across all geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance is involved.

Before July each year, the Commission will provide the European Parliament and the Council with an annual report on the Union’s development policy and external assistance, meeting all the Commission’s regulatory reporting requirements and giving full details of development cooperation, especially the extent to which it has met its objectives. In particular, the report will:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | present the strategic objectives of the Union’s development policy and its contribution towards the previous 35 % benchmark for social infrastructure and services and the current 20 % benchmark for basic and secondary education and for basic health, in the context of the geographical cooperation under the DCI, and assess the efficiency and effectiveness of cooperation, including progress made in coordinating aid, in improving the coherence of the Union’s strategy in its external actions, and in integrating the cross-cutting issues such as gender, human rights, conflict prevention and the environment, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | present the main results of evaluation and monitoring reports, as an indication of the extent to which its actions are achieving their objectives, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | summarise the key features and events of cooperation in each geographical region, and |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | provide financial information on the support given to each sector, in accordance with OECD reporting criteria. |

The report should also contain information on how budget support has contributed to the Millennium Development Goals. Budget support will depend on prior demonstration of sufficient institutional capacity and compliance with detailed criteria for the custody and use of funds in the recipient country. The criteria must be stated in the annual report, and compliance therewith must be assessed in the report.

After the report has been presented the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission will enter into a dialogue on the results and on how further progress can be made towards achieving the objectives.

Remarks

This appropriation is in accordance with the Trade, Development and Cooperation Agreement (TDCA) between the European Union and South Africa and Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation ([OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2006:378:TOC)).

The programme is implemented through Country Strategy Papers (CSPs) and Multiannual Indicative Programmes.(MIPs) under the TDCA in 2007-2013 and is financed from the general budget of the Union.

This appropriation is intended primarily to cover the financing of development cooperation projects and programmes with South Africa, which contribute:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | to improving social services and helping to achieve the Millennium Development Goals. |

Programmes shall focus on the fight against poverty and achieving the Millennium Development Goals, taking into account the needs of the previously disadvantaged communities and integrate gender and environmental dimensions of development. Special attention shall be paid to the strengthening of institutional capacities.

Development cooperation focuses mainly on:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | strengthening capacity for and support to service delivery to the poor (including health, HIV/AIDS, education, housing, infrastructures such as water and sanitation, sustainable energy, communication, as well as public finance management reforms at all levels of government, capacity building and strengthened monitoring and evaluation), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | support to sustainable growth, with a specific view to employment generation (addressing both labour demand and supply issues, such as skills development), notably in the field of climate change adaptation and mitigation and, in general, in the green economy, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | support to governance (both in the public and non-public domains), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | regional and Pan-African support (including contributions to actions promoting peace and security, to intra-ACP programmes for science and technology and academic mobility, as well as support to regional interconnectivity through infrastructure and trade development. |

Given South Africa’s environmental challenges and the country’s role as the twelfth largest green house gas emitter in the world, development cooperation will include an increased focus on environmental protection and climate-change-related measures.

Remarks

Action A: coordination

Budget financing provides the Commission with the means of support it needs to prepare, formulate and follow up coordination measures under its development policy. Policy coordination is crucial to the consistency, complementarity and effectiveness of aid.

Coordination measures are essential in defining and shaping the Union development policy at a strategic and programming level. The specific nature of the Union development policy is directly enshrined in the Treaties (Articles 208 and 210 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union). Union aid is complementary to the national policies of the Member States in the sphere of development cooperation and complementarity cannot work without coordination. Article 210 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union requires the Commission to act as coordinator of national policies and coordinator of Union objectives with national objectives in the area of development cooperation and assistance.

Coordination is not only a major factor in the Commission’s value added vis-à-vis the policies of the Member States but also a priority in the work schedule at the point where the agendas of the Union and the international community intersect. It therefore reflects a steadily growing demand from the other European institutions, as recognised by the Member States and by the European Parliament at the European Council in Barcelona in March 2002.

This appropriation covers various forms of action:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, impact and viability studies in the area of coordination, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | meetings of experts and exchanges between the Commission and Member States, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | monitoring of operations in the course of implementation, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | support measures to improve the quality of the monitoring of ongoing operations and the preparation of future operations, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | research to advise policy-makers how best to ensure that the specific interests of marginalised producers and poor workers in the South are reflected across all policy areas, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | measures to support external initiatives in the sphere of coordination, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the preparation of common positions, statements and initiatives, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the organisation of events relating to coordination, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the dissemination of information through the production of publications and the development of information systems. |

Action B: raising awareness

This appropriation covers the financing of activities designed to draw attention to action by the Union and the Member States in the development field and to raise public awareness of development issues. Every activity financed pursuant to this Article must include the following two components, which are complementary in the Commission’s view:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | an ‘information’ component, designed to promote the various activities which the Union undertakes in the development aid field and the activities which it conducts in partnership with the Member States and other international institutions, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | an ‘awareness-raising’ component, covering public opinion in the Union and in the ACP States (78 countries). These activities are targeted primarily at the young. An immediate priority of this component is also to raise public awareness in the Member States about the Union’s action in the development cooperation field. |

Part of these funds is intended for campaigns to raise public awareness of North-South trading relations and their impact on sustainable development and poverty reduction, linking in with Union consumers’ purchasing decisions.

These activities consist mainly, though not exclusively, of financial support for schemes in the audiovisual, publications, seminars and events fields as applied to development, the production of information material, the development of information systems, and also the Lorenzo Natali prize for journalism in the development field.

These activities are directed at public and private sector partners, and at the Union’s representations and delegations in the Member States, the accession countries and the ACP States.

Moreover, the appropriation will cover the financing of actions within the initiative ‘Mobilising European Research on Development Policies’. The main output of this initiative is the publication on an annual basis of a ‘European Report on Development’ (ERD). This process will enhance synergies between European research and policymaking by bringing them together in one common project. The European Report on Development, together with other intermediary products (background papers, seminars and workshops), will play a catalytic role in strengthening and refining the European vision on development and its influence in the international development agenda. This initiative is financed jointly by the Commission and by Member States through contributions on voluntary basis.

Irrespective of the beneficiary of the measure, no administrative expenditure against this Article is authorised.

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | expenditure on external staff at headquarters (contract agents, seconded national experts or agency staff) intended to take over the tasks previously conferred on dismantled technical assistance offices; expenditure on external staff at headquarters is limited to EUR 1 800 000. This estimate is based on a provisional annual unit cost per man-year, of which 93 % is accounted for by remuneration for the staff concerned and 7 % by the additional cost of training, meetings, missions, information technology (IT) and telecommunications relating to those staff members, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications directly linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme. |

This appropriation covers expenditure on administrative management under Articles 22 02 01, 22 02 02, 22 02 03, 22 02 04, 22 02 05 and 22 02 07, 22 02 08 and 22 04 02.

Remarks

After enlargement, the Commission remains responsible for ensuring that all legal and financial requirements are met, in particular with regard to sound and efficient financial management. In line with their Acts of Accession, all implementing agencies in the 12 new Member States that joined the Union in 2004 and 2007 must operate under the Extended Decentralised Implementation System (EDIS). In Bulgaria and Romania, EDIS was introduced in 2007.

The remaining tasks carried out at headquarters relating to the completion of pre-accession programmes notably concern project follow-up in the context of both monitoring of outcomes and financial management, including payment requests, supervision of implementation under EDIS, and follow-up to post-accession transitional financial aid. Requests to extend programmes and modify project fiches and/or financial allocations must also be duly assessed and an appropriate decision submitted to the Commission.

Due to the large volume of funds still under implementation in Bulgaria and Romania, sufficient capacities in headquarters are still required. Implementation in Bulgaria was highly problematic in 2008. This issue has created high political and public interest. This resulted in extra workload in terms of reporting, monitoring and missions, but also in a postponement of many transactions in 2009.

This appropriation is intended to cover the administrative costs of this remaining part of the phasing-out of the accession assistance programmes in the new Member States, namely:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | expenditure on short-term technical assistance, linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme (or measures coming under this item), as well as any other expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service contracts, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | expenditure on external staff at headquarters (contract agents, seconded national experts or agency staff) working on tasks directly related to the completion of the accession programmes; expenditure on external staff at headquarters is limited to EUR 980 000. This estimate is based on a provisional annual unit cost per man/year, of which 93 % is accounted for by remuneration for the staff concerned and 7 % by the additional cost of training, meetings, missions, IT and telecommunications relating to those staff members. |

This appropriation covers expenditure on administrative management under Items 22 02 05 01, 22 02 05 04 and Article 22 03 01.

Remarks

Under the IPA, pre-accession financial assistance is available not only for candidate countries but is also extended to potential candidate countries. This appropriation is intended to cover the component ‘transition and institution building’ for potential candidate countries. The main objective is to support the participation of the potential candidate countries in the stabilisation and association process and their progression towards candidate country status given their enhanced European perspective following the Thessaloniki European Council (19 to 20 June 2003). This will involve supporting the gradual introduction of the acquis of the Union for all countries and the implementation of obligations under the Interim Agreement / Stabilisation and Association Agreements, in particular by means of:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | strengthening democratic institutions, as well as the rule of law, including its enforcement, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the promotion and the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms and enhanced respect for minority rights, the promotion of gender equality and non-discrimination, |

Remarks

The Union is to finance part of the operation of the Office of the High Representative (OHR) in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The financing is in the form of a contribution to its budgets.

The OHR was expected to close down after Bosnia and Herzegovina had fulfilled some important benchmarks, but due to political uncertainty the closure was postponed.

The OHR will report to the European Parliament on the political situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in particular as regards its impact on the implementation of Union financial assistance.

Part of this appropriation is intended to be used, with due regard for the provisions of the Financial Regulation, for operations carried out by senior volunteer experts from the Union who come under the ESSN (European Senior Services Network), including technical assistance, advisory services and training in selected public or private sector enterprises.

|  |  |
| --- | --- |

| — | bringing the Turkish Cypriot community closer to the Union through, inter alia, information on the Union’s political and legal order, promotion of youth exchanges and scholarships, |

|  |  |

The funds proposed in the budget are to be used, in particular, for grant schemes addressed to a large variety of beneficiaries within the civil society of the community: NGOs, students and teachers, schools, farmers, small villages, SMEs. These activities are reunification-driven. Priority should be given, where possible, to reconciliation projects which create bridges between the two communities and build confidence. These measures underline the strong desire and commitment of the Union to a Cyprus settlement and reunification.

Remarks

The appropriation will be used for supporting non-profit organisations (such as civil society organisations at a local and international level and public institutions) in conducting sustainable preservation, restoration and development of sites concerning valuable cultural objects (churches, mosques, libraries, museums, monuments, etc.) in candidate and potential candidate countries.

Whenever possible, particular attention should be given to projects that support confidence-building processes by involving different ethnic and religious groups in joint projects, as well as competence building and awareness creation on a local and national level.

In the future, experience gained under this pilot project could also serve to develop a permanent legal basis and a wider approach for preserving and restoring cultural heritage in conflict areas in other geographical regions.

The European Parliament resolution of 29 March 2007 on the future of Kosovo and the role of the EU ([OJ C 27 E, 31.1.2008, p. 207](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:C:2008:027E:TOC)) stated that a Kosovo settlement should cover ‘protection of all cultural and religious sites’.

A huge number of damaged buildings in the Balkans stand as physical reminders of earlier conflicts, creating mistrust. Different ethnic groups and local authorities are today engaged by NGOs in joint restoration projects, thereby promoting respect for the cultural values of others, but no Union funding is available. The (IPA) programme broadly covers ‘reconstruction’ and ‘cooperation between communities’ but does not make specific reference to restoring cultural heritage.

Remarks

This appropriation will be used for supporting preservation and restoration projects for valuable cultural and religious objects (churches, mosques, libraries, museums, monuments, etc.) damaged or destroyed by war or other political conflicts in the Western Balkans. Appropriations may be used to support public organisations as well as NGOs conducting projects in this field. In this context, however, it is important to recognise the key role that NGOs often play in these preservation and restoration projects.

Particular attention should be given to projects that support the confidence-building process by involving different ethnic and religious groups to take part in joint projects and that support local education and development of restoration knowledge and skills of high cultural quality.

Best restoration practice shall serve as a guideline when selecting objects and, in the selection and evaluation of proposals and contractors, restoration expertise shall be allowed to participate.

Experiences from the 2008-2009 pilot project and the 2010 preparatory action should serve to develop a wider approach for preserving and restoring cultural heritage in conflict areas both in the Western Balkans, through the IPA programme, and in other geographical areas.

The purpose of this preparatory action is also to serve as a basis for integrating the preservation and restoration of cultural heritage in conflict areas into the IPA programme in the Western Balkans and Turkey.

Legal basis

Preparatory action within the meaning of Article 49(6) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

Remarks

Former Article 22 04 01

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of priority information and communication activities on enlargement, mainly regarding Member States, including evaluation actions.

The amount of the proposed appropriations reflects the information and communication priorities under the enlargement timetable. The aim of the information and communication strategy is to promote support for accession and to raise public awareness across Europe about the enlargement of the Union, but especially in those target countries where public opinion is more sensitive to future enlargement.

The appropriations will finance information and communication actions on priority Union policies such as: an effective dialogue on enlargement and pre-accession between citizens of the Union and the Union’s institutions, taking into account each country’s specificity and information needs; an informed debate on enlargement and pre-accession among civil society organisations and citizens in the Union and those of candidate countries and potential candidates; informing journalists and other multipliers on the enlargement process; commissioning studies and opinion polls; developing and updating dedicated websites; preparing printed and audiovisual material; organising public events as well as conferences and seminars; and evaluating the information programme.

The Commission, when implementing this budget line, should take duly into account the outcomes of the meetings of the Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI).

Legal basis

Task resulting from the Commission’s prerogatives at institutional level, as provided for in Article 49(6) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

Remarks

Former Article 22 04 02

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of priority information and communication activities on enlargement mainly regarding candidate and potential candidate countries, including evaluation actions.

The bulk of this appropriation will be allocated to cover information and communication activities devolved to Union liaison offices/delegations in candidate and potential candidate countries.

Information and communication actions will be directed at the general public, relevant specific audiences, especially youth, media and civil society organisations, and will seek to enhance support among opinion leaders for enlargement as well as the association and stabilisation process. The aim is also to strengthen the Union’s profile and political leverage in those countries and generate public support for the reform process during the accession and pre-accession periods.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover food aid operations of a humanitarian nature and will be carried out in accordance with the rules on humanitarian aid under Regulation (EC) No 1257/96.

The Union’s humanitarian aid provides assistance and relief on a non-discriminatory basis to help people outside the European Union, particularly the most vulnerable among them, and as a priority those in developing countries who are the victims of natural disasters, man-made crises, such as wars and outbreaks of fighting, or exceptional circumstances/circumstances comparable to natural or man-made disasters. It does so for as long as is necessary to meet the humanitarian needs to which such situations give rise.

This appropriation may be used to finance the purchase and delivery of food, seeds, livestock or any product or equipment needed for the implementation of the humanitarian food aid operations.

This appropriation is intended to cover the cost of the measures that are essential for implementing food aid of a humanitarian nature within the requisite timescale and in a way which meets the needs of the recipients, satisfies the requirement to achieve the greatest possible degree of cost-effectiveness and provides greater transparency. This includes:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the transport and distribution of aid, including any related operations such as insurance, loading, unloading, coordination, etc., |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | back-up measures that are essential for the programming, coordination and optimum implementation of the aid, the cost of which is not covered by other appropriations, e.g. exceptional transport and storage operations, processing or preparation of foodstuffs on the spot, disinfection, consultants’ services, technical assistance and equipment directly involved in providing the aid (tools, utensils, fuel, etc.), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the supervision and coordination of food aid operations, notably the terms for the supply, delivery, distribution and use of the products involved, including the use of counterpart funds, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | pilot schemes concerning new forms of transport, packaging or storage, studies of food aid operations, visibility operations linked to the humanitarian operations, and information campaigns to increase public awareness, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the storage of food (including administrative costs, future operations, with or without options, training of technicians, purchase of packaging and mobile storage units, cost of maintaining and repairing stores, etc.), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the technical assistance necessary for the preparation and implementation of humanitarian food aid projects, in particular expenditure incurred covering the cost of contracts of individual experts in the field and the infrastructure and logistics costs, covered by imprest accounts and expenditure authorisations, of DG Humanitarian Aid units deployed throughout the world. |

In order to ensure full financial transparency under Articles 53 to 56 of the Financial Regulation, the Commission, when concluding or modifying agreements on the management and implementation of projects by international organisations, will make every effort to commit to sending all their internal and external audits regarding the use of Union funds to the European Court of Auditors and to the Internal Auditor of the Commission.

New article

This appropriation is intended to cover a preparatory action on the establishment of a European Voluntary Humanitarian Aid Corps (EVHAC), which is foreseen by Article 214(5) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.

The creation of EVHAC is to coincide with the European Year of Volunteering (2011) (Item 16 05 03). EVHAC will also respond to the need to have an effective rapid crisis response instrument which draws on regional and national public administrations and all parts of the business and civil society at Union level, as well as individuals of all age groups and background wishing to contribute to improving the welfare of those in distress. It will add visibility to the Union as a global player having solidarity with the most vulnerable sections of the world populations and ensuring involvement of a wide range of actors. In addition to giving a Union framework to the widely dispersed activities carried out by volunteers, the existing of EVHAC will also lead to a more efficient coordination of humanitarian activities, the standardisation of procedures and practices applying to volunteers and of economies of scale.

The appropriations are intended to cover the following measures and items of expenditure:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | a review of international organisations, civil society, the private sector and other traditional and non-traditional organisations currently active in the provision of humanitarian assistance through the use of volunteers and voluntary structures. The examination will involve a desk review of existing studies and technical material available on volunteers and volunteerism in general whilst focusing on the provision of primary and short term assistance in the area of external action. The results of the review should provide the basis for a consultation of stakeholders to seek their views on the future direction and structure of European volunteerism in humanitarian aid, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | based on the information gathered, the Commission will identify the areas requiring in-depth studies. This will be necessary for each of the options available for which a full appreciation of the costs and benefits may be taken into account. The studies should also consider the impact of the options and the value added at Union level, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the review work will be followed up by an extensive information and consultation process (publications, workshops, expert meetings, conferences) and the coordination and mobilisation of key stakeholders required by the legislative process, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the technical assistance necessary for the preparation and implementation of projects, in particular the expenditure incurred covering the cost of contracts of volunteers and individual experts in the field and where appropriate the infrastructure and logistics costs (e.g. security, health, lodgings, insurance, daily and travel allowances), |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | information and awareness-raising activities, including the promotion of volunteerism to organisations which are not traditionally associated with this type of activity. |

Remarks

Former Article 07 04 05

This appropriation is intended to cover a preparatory action on a rapid response capability of the Union designed to respond immediately to critical needs arising from major disasters, including forest fires. It may consist of dedicated civil protection modules that Member States make available for European civil protection intervention and/or additional complementary capacities made available by the Monitoring and Information Centre (MIC) through standing arrangements with other parties.

The aim of the preparatory action is also to improve the mobilisation of additional operational resources and emergency support from Member States to assist other Member States or third countries in coping with forest fires too numerous and too intense to be handled within the constraints of national logistical capacity and manpower. It is designed to test innovative arrangements for making assistance available to Member States or third countries facing major forest fires. It covers in particular the setting-up by the Member States of a reserve of fire fighting capacities that may be made available in situations where Member States are unable to provide the assistance because they have engaged all their national fire fighting capacities to respond to forest fires or due to a high risk of forest fires on their territory.

By ensuring that key resources and essential equipment are on standby during relevant periods, in line with scenarios for responding to major disasters, this preparatory action is intended to enhance the collective preparedness of the Union for major disasters and paves the way for the European Union Civil Protection Force.

Remarks

New article

As foreseen in the Action Plan implementing the Stockholm programme, the Commission envisages presenting a ‘Communication on a comprehensive policy against corruption in Member States, including the establishment of an evaluation mechanism as well as presenting modalities of cooperation with the Council of Europe’s Group of States against corruption (GRECO) for that purpose’.

The anti-corruption policy and evaluation mechanism at the level of the Union would respond to (i) the public perception across the Union (2007 and 2009 Eurobarometers: more than 75 % of the European citizens consider that corruption represents a major problem in their own Member State); and (ii) the high public expectation of strengthened Union action (public consultation for Stockholm programme: 88 % of consulted citizens required more Union action in the field of anti-corruption).

A concrete step towards establishing an evaluation mechanism is a pilot project with a particular focus on public procurement involving Union funds that could identify indicators of corruption in the field of public procurement, test them in a limited number of Member States and measure the costs of corruption in particular areas. This particular focus in the pilot project is required given the magnitude of Union funds involved across the Union and the fact that public procurement is a developed area of the acquis in which Union competence is well-established.

Considering that corruption has played an important role in the financial crisis and that it slows down the recovery, the pilot project and the action by the Union has become even more urgent.

As a prerequisite, a research component in the pilot project may advance common definitions of corruption in the area of public procurement, so that data in different Member States could be compared, and the costs of corruption could be identified based upon common criteria.

The pilot project could be implemented in a limited number of Member States, selected on the basis of whether the results would be relevant for follow-up at Union level and for future Union policy and legislative action. The findings of the pilot project could then be disseminated throughout the Union.

Legal basis

Pilot project within the meaning of Article 49(6) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications directly linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme or measures coming under this budget heading, as well as any other expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service contracts, as the contracts of technical assistance offices expire during subsequent years.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this item. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations, according to the same ratio as between the amount authorised for expenditure on administrative management and the total appropriations entered for the programme, in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

On 29 September 2008 the Commission proposed a programme on ‘Interoperability Solutions for European Public Administrations’ (ISA) as a successor to the IDABC programme, which came to an end in December 2009.

The ISA programme aims at facilitating the efficient and effective electronic cross-border and cross-sector interaction between European public administrations in support of the delivery of electronic public services.

In order to do so, the ISA programme must contribute to establishing the related organisational, financial and operational framework by ensuring the availability of common frameworks, common services and generic tools and by increasing the awareness of information and communication technology aspects of Union legislation.

The ISA programme will thus contribute to the reinforcement and implementation of Union policies and legislation.

The programme is implemented in close cooperation and coordination with Member States and sectors, via studies, projects and accompanying measures.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this item. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the western Balkan potential candidate countries for participating in Union/Community programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

Former Article 06 01 06

Since expenditure on staff and buildings is included in the appropriations entered in Items XX 01 01 01 and XX 01 03 01, the Commission subsidy, together with the Agency’s own revenue, is intended to cover expenditure incurred by the Agency in its activities.

At its 23rd session on 1 and 2 February 1960, the Euratom Council proposed unanimously that the Commission postpone not only the levying of the charge (intended to cover the operating expenditure of the Euratom Supply Agency) but also the actual introduction of the said charge. Since then a subsidy has been included in the budget to balance the revenue side against the Agency expenditure figures shown in the statement of estimates.

It should serve to adapt and develop energy networks of particular importance to the Union in support of the operation of the internal energy market and, in particular, to increase interconnection capacity, security and diversification of supply and to overcome environmental, technical and financial obstacles. Special Union support is necessary to develop energy networks more intensively and to accelerate their construction, notably where the diversity of routes and sources of supply is low.

This appropriation should also serve to promote connection and integration of renewable energy resources and to strengthen economic and social cohesion with less-favoured and island regions of the Union.

It is intended to cover the financing of the second step of the economic recovery plan as agreed between the two arms of the budgetary authority on 2 April 2009. Its financing is conditional on an agreement by the budgetary authority and should be made available as provided for in points 21, 22 and 23 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management, without prejudice to the financial envelopes of the codecision programmes and the European Parliament’s priorities.

If the Commission's annual report to the European Parliament and to the Council on the implementation of the economic recovery plan identifies serious risks for implementing the priority projects, the Commission shall recommend measures to offset those risks, and shall where appropriate and consistent with the economic recovery plan, make additional proposals for the projects already referred to in Regulation (EC) No 663/2009.

Remarks

The aim of this reserve, in accordance with point 25 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management, is to allow a rapid response to the specific aid requirements of third countries following events which could not be foreseen when the budget was established, first and foremost for humanitarian operations, but also for civil crisis management and protection where circumstances so require. The annual amount of this reserve is fixed at EUR 221 000 000 for the duration of the financial framework, in constant prices. This amount is exceptionally increased to EUR 479 218 000 for the year 2008 in current prices.

This reserve is entered in the general budget of the European Union as a provision. The corresponding commitment appropriations will be entered in the budget, if necessary, over and above the ceilings.

When the Commission considers that this reserve needs to be called on, it will present to the two arms of the budgetary authority a proposal for a transfer from this reserve to the relevant budget lines.

At the same time as it presents its proposal for a transfer, the Commission will initiate a trialogue procedure, if necessary in a simplified form, to secure agreement of the two arms of the budgetary authority on the need to use this reserve and on the amount required.

Remarks

The aim of this reserve, in accordance with point 28 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management, is to provide additional support for workers who suffer from the consequences of major structural changes in world trade patterns and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market.

The methods for entering the appropriations in this reserve and for mobilising the Fund are laid down in point 28 of the abovementioned Interinstitutional Agreement and in Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006.

ANNEXES

EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA

Under the agreement establishing the European Economic Area the EFTA countries (with the exception of Switzerland) take part in a wide range of Union policies covered by subheadings 1a, 3a and 3b, and headings 4 and 5 of the financial framework in exchange for a financial contribution to operating appropriations calculated by applying a ‘proportionality factor’. This proportionality factor is equal to the sum of the ratios obtained by dividing the gross domestic product at market prices of each EFTA country by the gross domestic product at market prices of all the Member States plus that of the EFTA country concerned.

For 2011 the proportionality factor is estimated at 2,38 % (on the basis of 2009 figures).

These financial contributions will not be formally entered into the budget; each budget heading relating to activities in which the EFTA countries take part will refer to the EFTA contribution as a memorandum item. A summary table, listing the budget headings concerned and the amounts of the EFTA contribution for each budget heading, is published as an Annex to the general budget of the Union. The total EFTA contribution for the operational part for 2011 is estimated at about EUR 261 600 000 in commitment appropriations. The EFTA countries will also share in the administrative expenditure directly linked to the implementation of these policies. The figures and budget headings concerning the contributions by the EFTA countries are still to be discussed with them and must therefore be regarded as provisional.

BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE GENERAL BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION)

A. INTRODUCTION

This annex is drawn up in accordance with Article 30(1) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities ([OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2002:248:TOC)).

It provides information on the amounts of the borrowing-and-lending operations guaranteed by the general budget: loans for balance-of-payments support, borrowing operations to provide macro-financial assistance to non-member countries, Euratom borrowings to contribute to the financing required for improving the degree of efficiency and safety of nuclear power stations in certain non-member countries and European Investment Bank loans in certain non-member countries.

At 31 December 2009, outstanding operations covered by the general budget totalled EUR 29 754 000 000; of that total EUR 13 393 000 000 was inside the European Union and EUR 16 361 000 000 outside (rounded figures and exchange euro rate applicable at 31 December 2009).

2. Description

In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 332/2002, the European Union may grant loans to Member States which are experiencing, or are seriously threatened with, difficulties in their balance of current payments or capital movements. Only Member States which have not adopted the euro may benefit from this facility. The outstanding amount of loans is limited to EUR 12 000 000 000 in principal.

On 2 December 2008, the Council decided to extend the facility to EUR 25 000 000 000.

On 4 November 2008, the Council decided to provide a Community medium-term financial assistance for Hungary in the form of a medium-term loan of a principal of up to EUR 6 500 000 000 for a maximum average maturity of 5 years.

2. General budget guarantee

Pursuant to the terms of the abovementioned Council Decision of 8 March 1977, the European Union guarantees loans to be granted by the European Investment Bank as part of the European Union’s financial commitments towards the Mediterranean Basin countries.

This decision was the basis for the contract of guarantee signed by the European Economic Community and the European Investment Bank on 30 October 1978 in Brussels and 10 November 1978 in Luxembourg introducing a global guarantee of 75 % of all appropriations made available for loans in the following countries: Malta, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Portugal (Financial Protocol, emergency aid), Turkey, Cyprus, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Israel, Greece, former Yugoslavia and Lebanon.

The contract of guarantee is extended for each new Financial Protocol.

Decision 97/256/EC was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Community and the European Investment Bank signed in Brussels on 25 July 1997 and in Luxembourg on 29 July 1997 setting up a guarantee restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums.

Decision 1999/786/EC was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Community and the European Investment Bank signed in Brussels on 18 April 2000 and in Luxembourg on 23 May 2000 setting up a guarantee restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums.

Decision 2005/47/EC was the basis for a restated and amended contract of guarantee between the European Community and the European Investment Bank signed in Brussels on 30 August 2005 and in Luxembourg on 2 September 2005 setting up a guarantee restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums.

Decision 2006/1016/EC was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Community and the European Investment Bank signed in Luxembourg on 1 August 2007 and in Brussels on 29 August 2007 setting up a guarantee restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of credits disbursed and guarantees provided in respect of EIB Financing Operations less amounts reimbursed, plus all related sum. This Decision has been replaced by Decision No 633/2009/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council.

3. Description

Under the Financial Protocols concluded with Mediterranean Basin non-member countries, global amounts are laid down for loans to be granted by the European Investment Bank from its own funds. The European Investment Bank grants the loans for purposes which may contribute to the economic and social development of the countries in question (transport infrastructures, ports, water supply, production and distribution of energy, agricultural projects and promotion of small and medium-sized businesses).

Acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, the Council decided on 14 April 1997 to renew the Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in the following Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, Gaza and the West Bank. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 7 105 000 000, of which EUR 2 310 000 000 is for the abovementioned Mediterranean countries. It covered a period of 3 years beginning on 31 January 1997 (with a possible 6-month extension).

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

The Council decided on 29 November 1999 to grant a Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank against losses under loans for projects for the reconstruction of the earthquake-stricken areas of Turkey. The guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 600 000 000 and covered a period of 3 years beginning on 29 November 1999 (with a possible 6-month extension).

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This percentage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

On 22 December 1999, on the basis of a Commission proposal and after consulting the European Parliament, the Council decided once again to grant the European Investment Bank the Community guarantee against losses resulting from loans for projects carried out in the following Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, Gaza and the West Bank. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2000/24/EC is equivalent to EUR 19 460 000 000. The guarantee is limited to 65 % of the total value of the appropriations made available plus all the related amounts. It covers a period of 7 years from 1 February 2000 to 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period the loans granted by the European Investment Bank had not reached the abovementioned total values, the period has automatically been extended by 6 months.

On 4 December 2000 the Council decided to establish a European Investment Bank special action programme in support of the consolidation and intensification of the EC-Turkey Customs Union. The value of those loans is limited to an overall ceiling of EUR 450 000 000.

Decision 2005/47/EC restructured the Mediterranean regional mandate to exclude Cyprus, Malta and Turkey which were included in the South Eastern Neighbours mandate.

Decision 2006/1016/EC grants a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects outside the Community for loans in the following Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Egypt, West Bank and Gaza, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya (eligibility to be decided by the Council), Morocco, Syria, Tunisia. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2006/1016/EC is equivalent to EUR 27 800 000 000 and covers the period beginning on 1 February 2007 and ending on 31 December 2013 with a possible extension of 6 months. The Community guarantee is restricted to 65 %.

Decision 2006/1016/EC has been replaced by Decision No 633/2009/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council.

4. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions ([OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:1994:293:TOC)), any defaults are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | one annual payment to or rather exceptionally from the Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | the granting, in a series of cases, of interest-rate subsidies of 2 % in non-repayable aid, subject to the overall amounts laid down by the Financial Protocols. |

Loans with new Member States cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 ([OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2004:396:TOC))) and are therefore covered directly by the general budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

3. Description

In response to a call made by the Council on 9 October 1989, the Board of Governors of the European Investment Bank decided on 29 November 1989 to authorise the Bank to provide loans from its own resources to finance investment projects in Hungary and Poland for a total amount not exceeding EUR 1 000 000 000. These loans are granted to finance investment projects which satisfy the Bank’s usual requirements for loans from its own resources.

On 14 May 1991 and 15 March 1993 the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, decided that this guarantee should be extended to any loans that the European Investment Bank might make in the other countries of central and eastern Europe (Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and Romania) over a period of 2 years up to a maximum of EUR 700 000 000.

On 13 December 1993 the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, decided to renew for 3 years the European Union guarantee for EUR 3 000 000 000 in European Investment Bank loans for projects in Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Albania.

The budget guarantee covers all aspects of debt-servicing (repayment of capital, interest, related costs) in connection with these loans.

Acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, the Council decided on 14 April 1997 to renew the Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in Albania, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia.

It covers a period of 3 years beginning on 31 January 1997.

The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 150 000 000 for a period of 2 years beginning on 1 January 1998. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the European Investment Bank had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by 6 months.

The Council decided on 14 December 1998 to amend Decision 97/256/EC in order to extend the Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank to loans for projects in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is EUR 100 000 000 for a period of 2 years beginning on 22 December 1998. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the European Investment Bank had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by 6 months.

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

Acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, the Council decided on 22 December 1999 to renew the Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in Albania, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2000/24/EC is equivalent to EUR 19 460 000 000. The guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. It covers a period of 7 years beginning on 1 February 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the European Investment Bank had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by 6 months.

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This percentage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

Decision 2006/1016/EC grants a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects outside the Community for loans in the following candidate countries: Croatia, Turkey, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and potential candidate countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Kosovo. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2006/1016/EC is equivalent to EUR 27 800 000 000 and covers the period beginning on 1 February 2007 and ending on 31 December 2013 with a possible extension of 6 months. The Community guarantee is restricted to 65 %. This Decision has been replaced by Decision No 633/2009/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council.

4. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions ([OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:1994:293:TOC)), any defaults are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | one annual payment to or rather exceptionally from the Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations, |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| — | activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default. |

Loans with new Member States cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 ([OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:2004:396:TOC))) and are therefore covered directly by the general budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

On 12 December 1996 the Council granted the EIB a 100 % Community guarantee for loans for projects of mutual interest in certain third countries (Asian and Latin American developing countries) with which the Community has concluded cooperation agreements. This guarantee was restricted to an overall ceiling of EUR 275 000 000 to be granted in 1996 (with a possible 6-month extension).

Acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, the Council decided on 14 April 1997 to renew the Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in the following countries of Asia and Latin America: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Salvador, Uruguay, Venezuela, Bangladesh, Brunei, China, India, Indonesia, Macao, Malaysia, Mongolia, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 7 105 000 000, of which EUR 900 000 000 is for the abovementioned countries of Asia and Latin America. It covered a period of 3 years beginning on 31 January 1997 (with a possible 6-month extension).

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

The Council decided on 22 December 1999 to renew the Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in the following countries of Asia and Latin America: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Salvador, Uruguay, Venezuela, Bangladesh, Brunei, China, India, Indonesia, Laos, Macao, Malaysia, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam and Yemen. The guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2000/24/EC is equivalent to EUR 19 460 000 000. It covers a period of 7 years beginning on 1 February 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the European Investment Bank had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by 6 months.

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This percentage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

Decision 2005/47/EC was the basis for a restated and amended contract of guarantee between the European Community and the European Investment Bank signed in Brussels on 30 August 2005 and in Luxembourg on 2 September 2005 setting up a guarantee restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums.

The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2006/1016/EC is equivalent to EUR 27 800 000 000 and covers the period beginning on 1 February 2007 and ending on 31 December 2013 with a possible extension of 6 months. The Community guarantee is restricted to 65 %. This Decision has been replaced by Decision No 633/2009/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council.

4. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions ([OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1](./../../../legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=OJ:L:1994:293:TOC)), any defaults are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

Technical notes on Tables

Exchange rate: the amounts in column 2 ‘Equivalent at date of signature’ are converted at the rate applicable on the date of signature. As regards refinancing operations, Table 1 shows both the initial operation (e.g. in 1979) and the replacement operation (e.g. in 1986), the amount for the latter being converted at the rate of the initial operation. The resulting duplication affects the annual figures but is eliminated in the total.

All other amounts are converted at the rate applicable at 31 December 2010.

Column 3 ‘Initial amount received/paid up to 31 December 2010
’: with reference to 1986, for example, this column shows the cumulative total of all amounts received up to 31 December 2010 under loans signed in 1986 (Table 1), including refinancing (which produces some duplication).

Column 4 ‘Amount outstanding at 31 December 2010
’: these are net figures, with no duplication as a result of refinancing operations. They are obtained by subtracting from the column 3 figure the cumulative total of repayments made up to 31 December 2010, including repayments in respect of refinancing operations (total not given in the tables).

Column 7 = column 4 – column 5.

The Office's work is often too technical to be immediately comprehensible to the general public. The Office has to inform its interlocutors and the public as a whole of its role and tasks. Public perception of the Office's work is of paramount importance.

As a Commission service, the Office also needs to take account of the democratic deficit existing between the Union institutions and the citizens of Europe. The Commission has recognised this deficit and drawn up an action plan to address it.

The communications strategy that the Office has developed and continues to implement must demonstrate its independence.
