A. **INTRODUCTION AND FINANCING OF THE GENERAL BUDGET**

**INTRODUCTION**

The general budget of the 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 160 113 520 011 in commitment appropriations and EUR
144 680 980 690 in payment appropriations, representing a variation rate of + 0,18 % and of + 14,13 % respectively by comparison
with the 2017 budget.

Budgetary revenue totals EUR 144 680 980 690. The uniform rate of call for the VAT resource is 0,30 % (except for Germany,
Netherlands and Sweden for which the rate of call for the period 2014-2020 has been fixed at 0,15 %) whilst that for the GNI resource
is 0,6524 %. Traditional own resources account for 15,79 % of the financing of the budget for 2018. The VAT resource accounts for
11,92 % and the GNI resource for 71,01 %. Other revenue for this financial year is estimated at EUR 1 848 645 936.

The own resources needed to finance the 2018 budget account for 0,91 % of the total GNI.

The tables below set out step by step the method used to calculate the financing of the 2018 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
year 2007/2008 till the marketing year 2016/2017 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 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 0,6524 %.

_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, 19.7.2003,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2003&mm=07&jj=19&type=L&nnn=181&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

The Commission works out each Member State’s balance and informs it in time for that Member State to enter its
balance in the account referred to in Article 9(1) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 609/2014 on the first working day of
December, in accordance with Article 11 of that Regulation.

|---|---|---|
|p.m.|p.m.|35 732 929,25|

_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 2016 will be
used for research in 2018. In order to reduce as far as possible the f luctuations 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 2018 comes to EUR 27 400 000.

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 21 and Article 181(2) of the Financial Regulation, revenue will be used to provide additional
appropriations under Chapter 08 05 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’.

_Legal basis_

and subsequently, on completion of the liquidation, to the assets of the Research Fund for Coal and Steel.

_Remarks_

Any delay by a Member State in making the entry in the account opened in the name of the Commission referred to in
Article 9(1) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 609/2014 gives rise to the payment of interest by the Member State
concerned. However the recovery of amounts of interest below EUR 500 shall be waived.

For the VAT and GNI-based own resources, interest shall be payable only in relation to delays in entering amounts

_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 22 04 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.

This article may accommodate, in accordance with Article 21 of the Financial Regulation, assigned revenue which is
used to provide additional appropriations to finance expenditure to which this revenue is assigned.

_Legal basis_

For the legal basis, see remarks for Chapters 22 02 and 22 04 of the statement of expenditure in Section III
‘Commission’.

|p.m.|p.m.|35 732 929,25|

_Remarks_

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 2016 will be
used for research in 2018. In order to reduce as far as possible the f luctuations 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 2018 comes to EUR 27 400 000.

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 21 and Article 181(2) of the Financial Regulation, revenue will be used to provide additional
appropriations under Chapter 08 05 of the statement of expenditure in this section.

_Remarks_

Any delay by a Member State in making the entry in the account opened in the name of the Commission referred to in
Article 9(1) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 609/2014 gives rise to the payment of interest by the Member State
concerned. However the recovery of amounts of interest below EUR 500 shall be waived.

For the VAT and GNI-based own resources, interest shall be payable only in relation to delays in entering amounts
referred in Article 12(2) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 609/2014.

In the case of Member States belonging to the Economic and Monetary Union, the interest rate shall be equal to the rate
as published in the _Official Journal of the European Union_, C series, which the European Central Bank applied to its main
refinancing operations on the first day of the month in which the due date fell, or 0 per cent, whichever is higher,
increased by 2,5 percentage points. This rate shall be increased by 0,25 of a percentage point for each month of delay.

In the case of Member States not belonging to the Economic and Monetary Union, the interest 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, or 0
per cent, whichever is higher, increased by 2,5 percentage points. For the Member States for which the central bank rate
is not available, the interest rate shall be equal to the most equivalent rate applied on the first day of the month in
question on the Member State’s money market, or 0 per cent, whichever is higher, increased by 2,5 percentage points.
This rate shall be increased by 0,25 of a percentage point for each month of delay.

The total increase shall not exceed 16 percentage points. 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 22 04 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 six-monthly instalments and interest on risk capital generally in annual instalments.

This article may accommodate, in accordance with Article 21 of the Financial Regulation, assigned revenue which is
used to provide additional appropriations to finance expenditure to which this revenue is assigned.

This measure is designed to be an effective channel of communication and dialogue between the citizens of the Union
and the Union institutions, and to take account of specific national and regional characteristics, where appropriate in
cooperation with the Member State authorities. Emphasis will also be placed on preparing citizens for the introduction
of the euro in Member States planning for its introduction.

It includes:

development and maintenance, social media, exhibitions, stands, conferences, seminars, audiovisual products,
opinion polls, surveys, studies, promotional material, coin design competitions, twinning programmes, training
etc.), and similar activities at the national and regional level implemented in cooperation with the Commission’s
Representations,

— partnership agreements with Member States that wish to provide information about the euro or the EMU,

— cooperation and networking with Member States in the appropriate forums,

— communication initiatives in third countries, in particular to point out the international role of the euro and the
value of financial integration.

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

The implementation of the Commission’s communication strategy takes place in close coordination with the Member
States and the European Parliament.

The Commission adopts a strategy and an annual work plan drawing on the orientations set out in its Communication
of 11 August 2004 (COM(2004) 552 final) and it reports regularly to the relevant committee of the European
Parliament on the implementation of the programme and on planning for the coming year.

This appropriation is also intended to cover or to temporarily pre-finance costs incurred by the Union in concluding
and carrying out operations linked with the borrowing and lending operations for macro-financial assistance, Euratom,
balance of payment and European financial stabilisation mechanism.

Any revenue entered in Article 5 5 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional

Article 122(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union provides for 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.

In accordance with Article 2(2) of Regulation (EU) No 407/2010, the outstanding amount of loans and credit lines

_Remarks_

Macro-financial assistance (‘MFA’) is a form of financial aid extended by the Union to partner countries experiencing a
balance of payments crisis. MFA is designed for countries geographically, economically and politically close to the
Union. These include candidate and potential candidate countries, countries covered by the European Neighbourhood
Policy and, in certain circumstances, other third countries. In principle, MFA is only available to countries benefiting
from an International Monetary Fund programme.

COMMISSION

_TITLE 01 — ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL AFFAIRS_

**CHAPTER 01 03 — INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL AFFAIRS** _(cont'd)_

_**01 03 02**_ _(cont'd)_

MFA is exceptional in nature and is mobilised on a case-by-case basis to help countries dealing with serious balance-ofpayments difficulties. Its objective is to restore a sustainable external financial situation, while encouraging economic
adjustments and structural reforms.

While MFA can take the form of medium/long-term loans or grants, or a combination of these, this article only covers
the grant element of MFA operations.

Appropriations under this article will also be used to cover costs incurred in relation to MFA operations, and in
particular: (i) costs incurred to conduct operational assessments in the beneficiary countries to obtain reasonable
assurances on the functioning of administrative procedures and financial circuits, (ii) costs related to the implementation
of the ‘Better Regulation’ guidelines, in particular for ex-post evaluations of MFA operations, and (iii) costs to cover
comitology requirements.

The Commission will inform the budgetary authority regularly of the macro-financial situation of the beneficiary
countries and will report extensively on the implementation of MFA on a yearly basis.

Any revenue entered in Article 5 5 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional
appropriations in accordance with point (a) of Article 21(3) of the Financial Regulation.

Pursuant to Council Decision of 8 March 1977, the Union guarantees loans made by the European Investment Bank

equal to 75 % of all the funds available for loan operations in the following countries: Malta, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco,
Portugal (Financial Protocol, emergency aid), Turkey, Cyprus, Syria, Israel, Jordan, Egypt, former Yugoslavia and
Lebanon.

Decision 90/62/EEC was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Economic Community and the EIB
signed in Brussels on 24 April 1990 and in Luxembourg on 14 May 1990 as regards Hungary and Poland and for the
extension of that contract to cover Czechoslovakia, Romania and Bulgaria, signed in Brussels and in Luxembourg on

signed in Brussels on 4 October 1995 and in Luxembourg on 16 October 1995.

Decision 97/256/EC was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Community and the EIB 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 opened, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations opened

Brussels on 24 January 2000 and in Luxembourg on 17 January 2000, last restated in 2005, setting up a guarantee
restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations opened, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the
appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 19 460 000 000. The EIB 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 2001/777/EC was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Community and the EIB signed

in Luxembourg and in Brussels on 22 November 2011. The Union guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate
amount of credits disbursed and guarantees less amounts reimbursed, plus all related amounts. The maximum ceiling of
the EIB financing operations, less amounts cancelled, shall not exceed EUR 29 484 000 000, broken down into a
general mandate of EUR 27 484 000 000 and a Climate Change mandate of EUR 2 000 000 000. It covers a period
beginning on 1 February 2007 and ending on 31 December 2013 with an extension until the entry into force of a new
decision.

Decision No 466/2014/EU was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Union and the EIB signed in
Luxembourg on 22 July 2014 and in Brussels on 25 July 2014. The Union guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the
aggregate amount disbursed and guaranteed under EIB financing operations, less amounts reimbursed, plus all related

covers EIB financing operations signed during the period beginning on 25 July 2014 and ending on 31 December 2020
with an extension of six months if the European Parliament and the Council have not adopted a new decision granting
the Union guarantee to the EIB against losses under its financing operations outside the Union before the end of 2020.

In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. In
this case, Article 14 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 609/2014 of 26 May 2014 on the methods and procedure
for making available the traditional, VAT and GNI-based own resources and on the measures to meet cash requirements
[(OJ L 168, 7.6.2014, p. 39) applies.](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2014&mm=06&jj=07&type=L&nnn=168&pppp=0039&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

This article constitutes the structure for the guarantee provided by the Union. It will enable the Commission, if
necessary, to service the debt (repayment of principal, interest and other costs) should a debtor default on the loans
granted by the EIB.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to strengthen the competitiveness of enterprises, in particular that of small and mediumsized enterprises (SMEs), and to encourage entrepreneurship and foster the creation and growth of SMEs.

The implemented measures will include:

— networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders,

— market replication projects,

— policy analyses, development and coordination with participating countries,

— policies to foster entrepreneurship,

**CHAPTER 02 02 — COMPETITIVENESS OF ENTERPRISES AND SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED ENTERPRISES (COSME)** _(cont'd)_

— information sharing, dissemination, awareness raising and advisory services to increase SME’s competitiveness and
help them participate in the single market and beyond,

— support to joint actions of Member States or regions, as well as other measures under the COSME programme.

The Union will provide support to activities such as the Enterprise Europe Network and entrepreneurship promotion. It
will also support projects concerned with the first applications or market replication of techniques, practices or
products (e.g. new business concepts for consumer goods) of Union relevance that have already been technically
demonstrated with success but, owing to residual risk, have not yet significantly penetrated the market. Those projects
will be designed to promote wider use within the participating countries and facilitate market uptake.

Projects will also seek to improve the framework conditions including through capacity building in clusters and other
business networks notably with regard to support SME internationalisation in order to ensure that Union enterprises
are competitive and sustainable, including in the tourism sector, by supporting coherence and consistency in
implementation, as well as informed policy-making at Union level. In addition, projects will be put in place to
support the implementation of the Single Market Strategy and the Start-up Initiative. Support actions, directly linked to
the achievement of these objectives are also considered for funding: meetings (including workshops), studies,
information and publications and participation in study groups.

In relation to gender equality, projects to promote the position of female entrepreneurs will receive particular attention
in order to help overcome gender-based hurdles women may face and to attain an equal representation of male and
female entrepreneurs throughout the Union.

Sustainable tourism activities will receive a special focus with initial priority given to soft mobility, cycling networks,
eco-tourism and nature protection. Accessibility for all, particularly for people with reduced mobility and for socially
disadvantaged people is also of high importance in this context.

The Union will coordinate, promote and support actions for sustainable tourism, such as:

— preservation of long-term sustainable tourism resources through protection of natural, cultural, historical and
industrial heritage,

— coordination and support for access to sustainable tourism information and services for less-advantaged citizens
living in poverty, as well as for persons with reduced mobility,

— cross-border coordination of European cycling networks, together with rail and long-distance bus information and
services.

The ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ programme aims to encourage European entrepreneurship, the sharing of
knowledge and best practices, and the creation of valuable networks and partnerships.

Due to the currently difficult economic situation it is indispensable to support European enterprises, in particular young
innovative start-ups and female entrepreneurs, and to foster entrepreneurship by assigning enough funds to
programmes like the programme for the competitiveness of enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises
(COSME). It is particularly important to provide support and incentives for the most modern and innovative sectors,
such as the sharing economy and the digital economy. The Union needs to provide support for young entrepreneurs in
these sectors and to develop and introduce instruments that will allow innovative start-ups to compete with rivals from
third countries on world markets.

In particular the programme ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ has been very successful, efficient and effective in
contributing successfully to fighting unemployment and supporting robust start-ups across Europe. With regard to
under-representation of women among entrepreneurs, special attention should be paid to involving young female
entrepreneurs in the programme in order to encourage them to pursue their entrepreneurial career and to gain
experience in how to overcome gender-specific hurdles they may face.

The financial means for the ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ programme must be increased in particular due to the
following reasons:

— the programme helps fostering European entrepreneurship, the sharing of knowledge and best-practices as well as
the creation of valuable networks and partnerships,

— the programme is very successful and has shown an increasing number of participants over the last years which is
expected to increase further,

— the programme effectively tackles the problem of youth unemployment as it helps young people without work to
become self-employed and existing SME to create jobs by expanding and/or internationalising their business,

— the number of applications exceeds by far the possibilities the Commission can fulfil with the financial means
currently available.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is to be used to improve access to finance SMEs, including companies of female entrepreneurs, in the
form of equity and debt, in their start-up, growth and transfer phase.

A loan guarantee facility (LGF) shall provide counter-guarantees, direct guarantees and other risk sharing arrangements
for debt financing which shall reduce the particular difficulties that viable SMEs face in accessing finance either due to
their perceived higher risk or their lack of sufficient available collateral and for securitisation of SME debt finance
portfolios.

An equity facility for growth (EFG) shall allow investments in risk capital funds which invest in SMEs in the expansion
and growth stage, whilst taking a gender-sensitive and non-discriminatory approach, and in particular in those
operating cross-borders. The possibility shall exist to invest in early stage funds in conjunction with the equity facility
for RDI under Horizon 2020. In cases of joint investments in multi-stage funds, investments will be provided on a prorata basis from the EFG of COSME and the equity facility for RDI under Horizon 2020. Support from the EFG shall be
(a) either directly by the European Investment Fund (EIF) or other entities entrusted with the implementation on behalf
of the Commission or (b) by funds-of-funds or investment vehicles investing across borders.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular

Tourism is Europe’s third-largest industry. The Union travel and tourism sector employs almost 25 million people
(directly and indirectly) and visitors generate EUR 351 billion per year. The tourism industry generates 9,7 % of total
EU-28 GDP, a figure which is forecast to rise to 10,4 % by 2025.

Last year more than 455 million tourists came to the Union. Tourism is part of daily life; it is part and parcel of
European values. In view of recent crises, and at a time when there is an increasing threat of global terrorism, there is a
greater need for tourism, which is an industry that promotes peace.

For the sustainable development and protection of this highly economically important sector, closer co-operation is
required between the European Institutions and Member State governments, as well as maximum citizen involvement.

There are already two programmes, namely the European Capital of Culture and the European Capital of Sport. The
evaluations made of the European Capital of Culture programme, as well as public consultation on its future after 2019,
have revealed that it has become one of the most ambitious cultural initiatives in Europe and one of the most
appreciated by European citizens. That programme has generated economic growth in the majority of the cities
involved. In 2013 in Marseille (France) there were close to 11 million tourists, while Pécs (Hungary) recorded a 27 %
increase in hotel room occupancy. Above all, the programme has created communities and the majority of the cities
involved have found a new basis for their development plans. This has also created growth in the regions in which the
cities are located.

It is crucial to uphold those values and disseminate them as widely as possible. A ‘European Capital of Tourism’ could be
an excellent vehicle for that. Such a programme would aim to promote the rich tourism offering of European countries;
increase a sentiment of shared local tourism-related values; strengthen tourism-generated development in cities, their
surroundings and their regions; enhance the image of cities that are awarded this title and ultimately raise the profile of
their regions.

It would also be important for cities holding the title to seek to promote social inclusion and equal opportunities and to
do their utmost to ensure the broadest possible involvement of all the components of civil society in the preparation
and implementation of tourism-related programmes, with special attention being paid to young people and marginalised and disadvantaged groups.

The award of the title should be based on a specially created tourism-related programme, which should have a strong
European dimension. That tourism development programme should be part of a long-term strategy having a sustainable
impact on local economic, cultural and social development.

Because of the strong regional dimension of tourism, it is crucial, alongside the title ‘European Capital of Tourism’, for it
to be possible to give awards to cities and regions that have reached unique, innovation based results in the tourism

sector.

Accordingly, a ‘European Tourism Award’ could be given by an independent board of experts in different categories (for
example: sustainable tourism, digital tourism, health tourism) established by the European Parliament, the Commission
and the Committee of Regions. In this process the network of tourism stakeholders which created the Tourism
Manifesto for Growth and Jobs, with the support of civil society organisations, could be an excellent partner.

The general aim of the preparatory action is to:

— give local tourism its own profile, and strengthen links between cities and their regions;

— establish the ‘European Capital of Tourism’ within the existing institutional framework alongside the Cultural and
Sport Capital programmes with their effective operating methods; identify common values, harness potential
synergies and avoid duplication;

— increase the attractiveness of cities and regions, which can lead to economic growth and job creation.

The operational objectives are:

— to make a maximum of three ‘European Capital of Tourism’ awards a year;

— to lay down conditions and categories for the ‘European Tourism Award’;

— to involve Member States on a voluntary basis at the outset and initiate a structural dialogue with the Council;

— to establish the professional body, the preparatory committee to assess the bids, in co-operation with the European
Parliament, the Commission and the Committee of Regions;

— as regions are the main beneficiaries of Union funding, to look into the possibility of financial contributions for the
sustainability of the programme;

— to create an annual cost-effectiveness plan for the number of titles and awards.

ALECO is a pilot project for a one-way mobility scheme for young Union entrepreneurs with a maximum duration of
one to six months in selected third countries. The aim is for ALECO to become an integral part of Erasmus for Young
Entrepreneurs (EYE), mainly upgrading the programme in terms of geographical scope and exposure to successful
entrepreneurial models. The pilot project will use the existing EYE infrastructure, including support office, intermediary
organisations and IT tools.

Up to 200 young entrepreneurs from Member States are expected to participate. The target group will be selected from
entrepreneur profiles upon application and assessment. Eligibility criteria: 1. Future entrepreneurs showcasing ready-toimplement business plans and a binding commitment to start up a firm; 2. Entrepreneurs who have started a business
in the last three years, alone or in partnership; 3. Entrepreneurs who have taken advantage of EYE exchanges and
showcase progress in their business.

Hosting countries may include the USA, Israel, Canada, Singapore, Japan, China and South Korea.

The pilot project is supported by Eurochambres, the European Youth Forum, Junior Achievement, Knowledge 4
Innovation and European Democrat Students.

The activities carried out under this preparatory action could be linked to the theme of ‘Culture Europe - Promoting
Europe’s treasures’, with individual countries, regions or macro-regions presenting their distinct heritage and cultural
assets to a broad international audience.

The preparatory action builds on and continues the Destination Brand Europe pilot project, but it proposes an enlarged
scope and an increased budget. The action will also include promoting less well-known but equally interesting locations
and tourism sites, with the ultimate aim of diversifying the range of European destinations, creating new tourism
products and supporting less developed regions.

VisitEurope.com, a portal developed with Union support, could be a suitable platform for promotional and marketing
activities. Additionally, the ‘360° European Wonders’ app presented by the Commission in 2017 could be integrated
into the promotional and marketing strategy.

Ultimately, the action will raise awareness around responsible and sustainable development as regards cultural heritage
and the protection of resources for future generations.

The main objectives and actions include:

— preserving Europe’s lead position among world tourist destination by promoting European cultural heritage;

— developing and endorsing promotional and marketing channels (online and off line) that will enable destinations to
maximise the reach of their tourism offer;

— diversifying the range of European destinations by promoting less visible secondary destinations (so-called ‘hidden
gems’) as new tourism products;

— researching and identifying a number of well-developed and accessible alternative tourist destinations with high
potential demand and appeal both internally and in overseas markets;

— engaging with various stakeholders across EU Member States to raise the visibility of cultural heritage sites;

— providing support to industry partners, especially SMEs in the hospitality and transport sectors, to develop tourism
products that incorporate these alternative destinations into their travel packages.

_Remarks_

The World Bridge Tourism pilot project was initiated in the 2015 budget. The main aim of the project was to ensure
that Europe should benefit from world bridge tourism by increasing the GDP of the tourism sector. At the same time, it
will bring about significant economic growth, including the creation of sustainable employment opportunities.

The preparatory action focuses on China as the fastest-growing tourism source market in the world. As stated in the
pilot project, Chinese tourists’ propensity to travel abroad is expected to continue rising in the coming decades. Beyond
Asia and the Pacific, Europe is the largest destination region for Chinese travellers. As Europe has a prominent place on
the Chinese ‘wish list’, it is necessary to think about how Member States could host Chinese tourists more effectively.
This will involve mutual understanding and continuous and sustainable training of employees throughout Europe in the
tourism sector.

The preparatory action will increase f lows of Chinese visitors by facilitating business between European tourism
providers and Chinese buyers.

2018 is EU-China Tourism Year, during the preparatory period for which the World Bridge Tourism project will have a
crucial role.

The main objectives and actions include:

— identifying best practices and analysing the results of the pilot project;

_Remarks_

Knowledge and skills are crucial not only for the personal welfare of each citizen, but also for sustainable development
and economic growth. It is therefore important to offer a perspective to people coming from countries in economic and
social crisis, especially young people, so that they have an opportunity to create added value not only for themselves,
but also for the general public.

It is therefore important to empower young migrants and refugees to gain access to knowledge and to develop skills
they are able to use and leverage when they are back in their home countries.

This will make it possible for them not only to establish a livelihood, but also potentially to become entrepreneurs,
build up their own businesses and create employment.

The core of this initiative will be targeted mentoring programmes from different organisations, such as civil protection
and community services, as well as companies (including local suppliers). Elements of a dual-training system would help
beneficiaries to identify the specific needs of organisations or companies on the ground.

The legal situation regarding the waiting period for taking up an economic activity differs considerably from Member
State to Member State. To make the preparatory action a success, it will therefore also be necessary to conduct a review
of current national legal frameworks and to identify best practices which could be promoted in order to speed up
procedures, so that young migrants can take advantage of the proposed programmes as soon as possible upon arrival.

_Remarks_

Increasing SMEs’ internationalisation capacity is crucial for European competitiveness. 99 % of Union enterprises are
SMEs; most of them face many difficulties when they try to establish an internationalisation strategy, especially vis-à-vis
third markets where they face strong — and sometimes unfair — competition. In the last three years, only 29 % of
micro enterprises, 43 % of small enterprises and 59 % of medium-sized enterprises have exported to another Member
State. Many SMEs do not have the required skills to deal with multinational companies, attend international fairs or set
up an e-commerce infrastructure.

This challenge could be overcome by encouraging SMEs to combine and work together on specific internationalisation
projects. In the past few years, experiences have shown the potential that cooperation among SMEs offers for enhancing
their internationalisation. The added value of cooperation has also been acknowledged by the Commission (e.g. in the
SBA review). On the basis of national best practices, the Commission has introduced the concept of ‘business network’,
defining it as ‘a form of inter-firm cooperation that allows companies, located also in different regions or countries, to
collaborate together on a basis of common development objectives expressed in a cooperation agreement/contract. The
companies decide to join their strengths, share information and create synergies to become more innovative and
competitive on the domestic and international markets, while keeping their autonomy, not creating a separate legal
entity. This cooperation model is suitable for any kind of business activity and sector’.

Internationalisation represents a key component for European growth and competiveness. Taking into account the fact
that the difficulties SMEs have in going international, not only in third markets but also in the European internal
market, are often due to their limited size, stimulating cooperation and encouraging SMEs to join forces in order to
operate on the basis of a better structure while maintaining their entrepreneurial autonomy should be tested and
developed. In its Communication ‘Small Business, Big World — a new partnership to help SMEs seize global
opportunities’ (2011), the Commission pointed out the importance of promoting clusters and networks for SME
internationalisation. The Enterprise Europe Network plays an essential role in supporting SMEs’ internationalisation by
matching needs and reducing costs.

In this context, a trial could be launched at Union level to test the impact of SMEs from different Member States joining
forces and starting to work together on strengthening internationalisation capacity and enhancing presence on markets
in third countries. In particular, the trial could: (1) test the added value for internationalisation of combining SMEs, (2)
promote a culture of cooperation and networking activities among SMEs, (3) disseminate this cooperation/networking
model as a best practice and as a tangible way for SMEs to enter new markets, by showing that by working together on
common internationalisation plans they can greatly improve their international performance.

Networks should be composed of at least three SMEs from three different Member States. Applicants should submit a
proposal for an internationalisation strategy, providing a detailed description of the purpose of the collaboration and of
the strategic objectives. The trial should cover the costs of the start-up phase for SME network internationalisation
activities, such as:

— identifying international markets that SME network members wish to enter to market their products;

— sharing knowledge and information about markets and clients;

— developing coordinated promotion, marketing and sales strategies (including joint digital marketing strategies/ecommerce infrastructure);

_Remarks_

Industrial modernisation is critical to improving the Union’s competitiveness and is therefore an absolute cornerstone
of its policy. In this regard, the ability of industrial companies not only to develop but also to absorb and successfully
implement new technologies is crucial. However, this remains a big challenge for many companies.

02 02 77 35 _(cont'd)_

Different stages can be identified in the process of developing and deploying new technologies. There is mounting
evidence that market failure occurs at the demonstration stage (TRL 6-8) of the innovation process: between applied
research, prototyping and market entry. Testing and validation of prototypes in an industrial environment and certifying
new applications remain both very costly and highly uncertain. In many cases this prevents (or at least substantially
delays) market uptake of very promising innovations from research and industry, including those previously financed by
the Union. On the one hand, industrial companies very often do not have all the necessary equipment and skills to carry
out further prototyping activities, validation tests, certification procedures, cost comparisons and other post-prototyping activities needed before full production and market launch. These activities are usually categorised as so-called
‘non-recurrent costs’ and contribute to what is commonly known as the ‘Valley of Death’. On the other hand, very few
regions have all the demonstration capabilities in place to help companies carry out the full spectrum of postprototyping activities in a specific technology domain.

There is a strong need and rationale to establish an inter-regional innovation structure with pan-European shared
demonstration facilities (‘industry commons’) accessible by industry and able to speed up technology deployment in and
by industrial companies. Shared demonstration facilities can be established by connecting and upgrading the
complementary facilities which already exist in the regions, or by creating new shared facilities if needed.

[In the past, and in ongoing activities under Vanguard Initiative (VI) pilot projects (www.s3vanguardinitiative.eu), various](http://www.s3vanguardinitiative.eu)
regions have found that setting up ‘shared demonstration facilities’ usually involves a non-profitable component. This
funding gap occurs when setting up shared facilities and meeting initial operating costs. Once this funding gap is closed,
industrial demonstration activities can take place. If they are successful, companies can then upscale their production,
generate revenues in the marketplace and hence generate growth and jobs. In order to speed up technology deployment
and industrial modernisation, stronger public intervention is therefore needed to unlock innovation and growth
potential. At the moment, there is no suitable cross-regional, pan-European instrument to support very much needed
investments in innovation infrastructure.

In this context, this preparatory action will complement and further expand the ongoing activities under the VI and the
Thematic Smart Specialisation Platform for Industrial Modernisation (TSSP IM). While the TSSP IM and its inter-regional
partnerships, such as VI, are instrumental in detecting and initiating inter-regional collaboration for technology uptake,
this action will support the development of investments, operations and services, and defray coordination costs for
shared demonstration facilities serving a customer base of industrial organisations throughout Europe.

This preparatory action will be particularly important in generating input for the (re)designing of various Union
policies, including innovation (FP9), investment (EFSI) and cohesion policy. The action will identify the scope and
limitations of existing funds and financial instruments for ultimately stimulating the uptake of market-creating
technologies and the promotion of follow-up investments by the private sector, including through close or closer
cooperation with industry associations, thereby providing useful input for policy makers.

This preparatory action will focus on the specific VI pilot project for shared demonstration facilities for ‘High
Performance Production through 3D Printing’ (3DP). The 3DP pilot project is among the most advanced, but it faces
a huge investment challenge for several of its industrial applications. 3D printing has also been identified as a disruptive
technology significantly impacting a broad range of industrial sectors.

Specifically, the preparatory action will focus on the following activities:

(1) setting up an operational platform of connected demonstration facilities between regions by, inter alia:

— connecting demonstration facilities to form a virtual support platform;

— monitoring the provision of know-how, equipment and services to industry, ensuring broad sectoral coverage;

— if needed, expanding the network of connected facilities to improve industrial and/or geographical coverage;

— setting up a network of accredited service providers throughout Europe (for support, training, certification, etc.
within the networked demonstration facilities);

(2) attracting industrial demonstration projects via the platform by, _inter alia_ :

— interacting with key stakeholders;

— promoting the platform and identifying opportunities;

— further developing 3DP demonstration cases and use cases, creating new value chains;

— identifying the specific coordination costs and investment support needs;

— communicating and working with a wider audience, including making use of the TSSP IM;

— working on synergies between the relevant pilot project and related initiatives;

— gaining specific knowledge on funding issues to address specific investment needs;

(3) providing an overview of specific proposals for changes to Union policies, in consultation with the Commission.

For proper implementation and evaluation, a timeframe of three years (2018-2020) is needed, including an annual
update of the roadmap by a strategy board that will also include Members of the European Parliament.

opportunities

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will create a business-enabling network for SMEs to seize circular economy business
opportunities. It will advance a new type of environmentally friendly industry, where the worthless is turned into
valuable by making full use of all materials, including side f lows and waste.

The major chemical-using industries, businesses and associated supply chains in different parts of Europe (notably in
Finland, France, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom) attempt to create new business out of side f lows and wastes.
Side f lows can be recovered and used as raw materials in new industries. By refining raw materials in the Union, most
added value is created in the single market, thus benefitting European economies. This will create jobs and benefit the
environment.

The Cir©Lean target group is export-orientated industrial service SMEs which are willing and able and have an
international outlook. Cir©Lean will build a systematic, long-term business-enabling network for Union-based SMEs by
utilising cross-border, cross-sector and cross-industry knowledge and by developing innovative circular economy
business models. The action will help SMEs find ways to increase the value of (currently unidentified) waste and
residues by turning them into valuable products to be sold in both the domestic and international markets. The action
will enhance industrial symbiosis by increasing the degree of processing of residual waste and landfill and generate new
residual waste business.

New business models will be created in cross-border, cross-sector and cross-industry Open Innovation Business
workshops where SMEs, primary industries, business developers, educators, researchers, authorities and financiers
pool their skills. The Sustainability Assessment Tool developed in Finland will be applied in this work. The workshops
will contribute to the development of new knowledge for all participants, creating new commercial products and
services that span national borders.

Approximately 20 SMEs will participate in the Cir©Lean preparatory action. As a milestone for the action, 100 SMEs
will participate in professional development activities, and, as part of the action, they will gain new contacts and
establish cross-border cooperation. When the action is completed, exports will increase and the number of SMEs with
new business models will grow. New long-term and sustainable contacts and partnerships with permanent cooperation
structures will be established as a result.

Cir©Lean will set up a circular economy business-enabling network that will continue after the preparatory action ends.

demonstrations, etc.). While preparing the standards, possible gender-related specificities should be considered.

Union finance is to be used to frame and implement the standardisation operation in consultation with the main
participants: industry, workers’ representatives, consumers, when relevant including women’s organisations, small and
medium-sized enterprises, the national and European standardisation institutions, the public procurement agencies in
the Member States, all users and industrial policymakers at national and Union levels.

In support of interoperability, specific provisions about the use of ICT technical specifications in public procurement are
included in Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the costs of the functioning and activities of European non-governmental and
non-profit organisations representing the interests of SMEs and consumers, as well as environmental and social
interests, in standardisation activities.

Such representation in the standardisation process at European level forms part of the statutory objectives of such
organisations, and they have been mandated by national non-profit organisations in at least two thirds of the Member
States to represent those interests.

Contributions to such European organisations have previously been covered by the Competitiveness and Innovation
Programme, the consumer policy and the Financial Instrument for the environment, LIFE+. In Regulation (EU)
No 1025/2012 the actions in the field of standardisation financed by specific programmes have been brought
together in a single legal act.

_**02 03 03**_ _(cont'd)_

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the Agency’s staff and administrative expenditure (Titles 1 and 2), and
operational expenditure in connection with the work programme (Title 3).

The Agency must inform the European Parliament and the Council about transfers of appropriations between
operational and administrative expenditure.

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, those 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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

The amounts repaid in accordance with Article 20 of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1271/2013
constitute assigned revenue in accordance with point (c) of Article 21(3) of the Financial Regulation to be charged to
Item 6 6 0 0 of the general statement of revenue.

In 2018, the Agency’s revenue from fees and charges and the surplus carried over from previous year will not be
sufficient to cover for the expected expenditure, which implies the need of a balancing subsidy from the Commission.
The Union contribution for 2018 amounts to a total of EUR 25 722 021.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

The scope of the pilot project is to collect, publish and communicate through experts the best practices available in the
area of cross-border parcel delivery services, based on successful implementation by all market participants, with the
aim of helping all Member States to reach a common level of delivery efficiency and tackle disparities, while at the same
time potential areas for further actions could also be identified where the customer satisfaction level should be further
addressed.

The project could encompass four steps: (1) a comprehensive assessment of the needs of users of e-commerce-related
(cross-border) parcel delivery services; (2) an assessment of the extent to which existing delivery industry practices meet
these needs; (3) identification of good industry practice in this field; (4) a gap analysis identifying areas where additional
innovation and service improvements are needed to satisfy existing and emerging consumer needs.

the Postal Services Directive (Directive 97/67/EC as amended by Directive 2002/39/EC and 2008/6/EC) (COM(2015)
568 final).

As stated by Vice-President Andrus Ansip, in charge of the Digital Single Market Strategy, regarding parcel delivery the
Commission will:

(1) take action to improve regulatory oversight while supporting innovation and ensuring a level playing field for
operators;

(2) address the issue of price transparency, including prices for small shipments. This action should mainly support
consumers and small businesses. A comprehensive assessment of the situation will be carried out after two years to
see if further action is needed.

_Remarks_

Having regard to paragraph 40 of the European Parliament recommendation of 4 April 2017 to the Council and the
Commission following the inquiry into emission measurements in the automotive sector (P8_TA(2017) 100), this pilot
project will fund measures relating to in-service conformity checks by third-party testing in relation to the transposition
of the Regulation (EC) No 715/2007.

In the past, qualified third parties provided authorities at Union and national level with reliable information on the
emission behaviour of vehicles. That information was rarely made available by the responsible authorities. Funding
should be made available to allow them to provide reliable data from on-road emissions testing of passenger cars which
is independent of the data provided by manufacturers and the regulatory authorities in order to promote transparency
and improve market surveillance. To guarantee their independence, third parties must not be providing, or have
provided in the past, vehicle emissions testing or similar (studies, measurements, etc.) services for industry stakeholders.

The third parties will validate the test procedures by referring to the provisions laid down in Regulation (EC) No 715/
2007, Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 and the first three RDE packages (Commission Regulations (EU)
2016/427, (EU) 2016/646 and (EU) 2017/1151) and the guidelines outlined in the Commission notice of 26 January
2017. They will publish the results of their measurements in order to support the development of best practice
procedures and the provision of broader information to the responsible authorities and the public. The third parties will
not only measure exhaust gases and particle emissions from passenger cars.

Independent third parties will thus contribute to better oversight on how exhaust standards are preforming in practice
and to what extent the Union’s objectives in terms of air quality and climate policy are being achieved. They will
contribute to a broader understanding of exhaust reduction strategies with regard to acceleration, high speed, ambient
temperature and other criteria. Their specific test procedure will be documented transparently and should take into
account current rules on RDE and the latest research.

_Remarks_

The pilot project consists of a series of market investigations into several categories of consumer products in different
Member States.

It will compare the qualitative characteristics of products that are sold in the single market under the same brand and in
the same packaging and with the use of other marketing texts.

The pilot project will reveal how the quality of products under the same brands differs between Member States. The
research will also include a comparative analysis of the labelling and consumer information for those products.

It will focus on food and non-food products. In the first phase only food products will be examined.

If the pilot project is continued, non-food products will also be examined.

With regard to food, each of the Eurostat-defined product groups examined will contain an adequate number of
representative products. For non-food products, different product groups will also be represented. This may include
detergents, cosmetics, toiletries and baby-products.

Products chosen will be those that consumers could reasonably believe to be the same, especially with regard to package
labelling, brand name and the use of other marketing texts.

The investigation will be undertaken in at least half of the Member States, covering a representative cross-section in
terms of population, Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices and geographical area. The scope of the investigation,
including the selection of Member States and categories of products, will be decided by a task force on dual quality of
products composed of representatives of Member States’ competent authorities, consumer organisations, industry, the
Commission and members of the European Parliament’s Committee on Internal Market and Consumer Protection.

The following assessment will be carried for all products tested:

— physical-chemical testing;

— sensory testing;

— conformity with label declaration;

_Remarks_

Europe faces today an increasingly deteriorating security situation with the emergence of new or existing threats; the
financial crisis has put constant pressure on national defence budgets and since 2006, the budget spent on defence R&D
in Europe decreased by 30 %. In this context, Member States and public opinion look to the Union for greater
involvement in security and defence.

The main objective of the preparatory action is to prepare and test mechanisms for conducting Union-funded defence
research, including a mechanism of cooperation with the European Defence Agency, with a view to prepare, organise
and deliver a variety of defence research, technology and development activities. The final aim of these activities is to
improve the competitiveness and innovation in the European defence industry and to stimulate growth and job
creation. It needs to produce visible and timely results for the decision making in view of the discussion on a possible
defence research programme within the next Multiannual Financial Framework.

The research & technology programme of the preparatory action will be implemented by annual work programmes,
mainly through calls for proposals for research projects and procurement. Tasks related to the implementation of the
work programmes shall be delegated to the European Defence Agency. The preparatory action will cover all needed
expenses to prepare and test mechanisms for conducting Union-funded defence research, including expenditure related
to information and publications, dissemination, technical and administrative assistance, consultancy, studies and expert

groups.

In 2018, this appropriation would cover funding for additional technology modules of a large scale demonstration
project funded under the 2017 appropriation, which should yield timely the most tangible result: a first experimental
development of new, innovative defence technology. This demonstration project should be complemented with a
number of research projects, inter alia, on critical defence technologies as well as future disruptive technologies, and
support activities to improve, for example, on standardisation and interoperability. The precise scope of the topics will
include inter alia consultation with the Member States and the defence-related R&D stakeholders, and assistance from

experts.

Any revenue from contributions from third countries 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_

_Former Item 02 03 77 06_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

The pilot project on space technologies will primarily test partnership arrangements with industry to identify priorities
for competitiveness. This will prepare the ground for a public-private partnership (Joint Technology Initiative or similar)
in space technologies and an associated roadmap through a structured dialogue with industry.

The pilot project will focus on two themes which are not addressed by current programmes: innovative materials for
space equipment and cleaner space through deorbiting.

The specific area of materials for space equipment is critical for a European space sector currently suffering from
dependency in some critical materials areas. In order to support a reduction in dependency as regards materials supply
and a sustainable REACH-compliant competitive space sector, two major topics could be addressed by developing
innovative materials for space equipment: composite supply source for critical space equipment and non-dependency
with regard to materials and processes. The market for carbon-based raw materials suffers from under-capacity, and the
space sector, because it is a low-volume customer, suffers the most. Supply sources for composite raw materials are still
highly concentrated in the US and Japan. The drive for non-dependency with regard to materials and processes should
aim at promoting European sources for critical materials and processes affected by dependency issues or Regulation (EC)
No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Registration,
Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) and establishing a European Chemicals Agency
[(OJ L 396, 30.12.2006, p. 1).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2006&mm=12&jj=30&type=L&nnn=396&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

Innovative materials for space equipment would also provide a deorbiting solution by allowing the development of
appropriate technology to ensure that satellites are removed at the end of their mission life.

The Earth’s orbit needs to be in good condition in order to enable manned and unmanned operations in space in the
future. The Union should start to take the steps necessary for limiting the growth of orbiting debris.

The three main areas for technological development could be:

(1) end-of-life deorbiting solutions (propulsion);

(2) trajectory and controlled re-entry (design and modelling);

(3) design for demise (controlled break-up on re-entry). Establishing a long-term deorbiting scheme through a pilot
project could also make a significant environmental contribution.

_Remarks_

The aim of this appropriation is to:

— enable operations of Copernicus services, tailored to the needs of users;

— contribute to ensure access to data of the observation infrastructure necessary to operate Copernicus services;

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

This appropriation will, in particular, fund the set-up, the establishment and operation of the six services mentioned in
Regulation (EU) No 377/2014 and the related activities.

This appropriation may also fund cross-cutting activities among the services or their articulation and co-ordination, as
well as for the in-situ co-ordination, user uptake and training and communication.

The budget envelope will be managed either directly by the Commission services or indirectly via delegation agreements
with Union agencies and international organisations, or any entity eligible under Article 58 of the Financial Regulation.

When the Commission manages the budget directly, it may entrust the Joint Research Centre (JRC) with scientific and
technical support tasks. The funding of these tasks may be entered into the JRC’s indirect budget under point (c) of
Article 183(2) and Article 183(6) of the Financial Regulation.

In addition, in support of competiveness and growth, this appropriation may also fund data dissemination and the
incubation of new businesses by supporting more robust and innovative IT structures in Europe.

Copernicus services will facilitate access to key data required in policy formulation at Union, national, regional and local
level in fields such as agriculture, forest monitoring, water management, transport, urban planning, climate change and
many others. This appropriation covers mainly the implementation of delegation agreements for the Copernicus
programme, pursuant to Article 58 of the Financial Regulation.

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, those 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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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. Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western
Balkan potential candidates for participating in Union 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 21 of the Financial Regulation.

_Remarks_

The aim of this appropriation is to:

— build an autonomous Union’s Earth observation capacity by funding the space infrastructure and favouring the
European industry in that regard, namely in the construction and launch of satellites;

— contribute to the availability of the observation capacity necessary to enable the Copernicus services, in particular
through the operations of the ground segment of the space infrastructure;

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

The development of a European space infrastructure has a key role in enhancing competitiveness and innovation, and
requires consistent public intervention to sustain the industrial effort.

This appropriation will fund the development and construction of satellites, as well as their operation. The data and
information obtained through the space infrastructure is subject to the free, full and open data policy, which will
increase their availability and thereby boost the downstream market.

To supplement the data needed by users, this appropriation may also fund the acquisition of data from third parties and
the access to contributing mission from Member States, as well as the dedicated dissemination platform (core ground
segment) which will serve, in priority the operational services funded by Article 02 06 01.

The budget envelope will be managed either directly by the Commission services or indirectly via delegation agreements
with Union agencies and international organisations, or any entity eligible under Article 58 of the Financial Regulation.

When the Commission manages the budget directly, it may entrust the Joint Research Centre (JRC) with scientific and

_Remarks_

In order to ensure that the rules on competition concerning agreements, decisions by associations of undertakings and
concerted practices (Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union), abuses of a dominant
position (Article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union), aids granted by States (Articles 107 and
108 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union) 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 draft amending budget.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover ESF support under the Investment for growth and jobs goal in less developed
regions in the 2014-2020 programming period. The catching-up process for these economically and socially lagging
regions requires long-term sustained efforts. This category of regions concerns those regions whose GDP per capita is
less than 75 % of the average GDP of the EU-27.

Promotion of equality between women and men horizontally and through specific actions should be part of the
support provided by the ESF, in order to improve the employability of women and their participation in the labour
market. Special attention should be paid to non-discrimination in the labour market, combating the feminisation of
poverty, access to education and affordable childcare services.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover ESF support under the Investment for growth and jobs goal in more developed
regions in the 2014-2020 programming period. While interventions in the less developed regions will remain the
priority for cohesion policy, this appropriation is thus intended to cover important challenges that concern all Member
States such as global competition in the knowledge-based economy, the shift towards the low carbon economy and
social polarisation exacerbated by the current economic climate. This category of regions concerns those regions whose
GDP per capita is above 90 % of the average GDP of the EU-27.

Gender mainstreaming and gender equality specific actions should be part of the support provided by the ESF, in order
to improve the employability of women and their participation in the labour market. Special attention should be paid to
non-discrimination in the labour market, combating the feminisation of poverty, access to education and affordable
childcare services.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to provide additional support to measures against youth unemployment financed by the
ESF. It represents the specific allocation to the Youth Employment Initiative under the Investment for growth and jobs
goal in regions with a level of youth unemployment exceeding 25 % in 2012 or for Member States where the youth
unemployment rate has increased by more than 30 % in 2012, regions that have a youth unemployment rate of more
than 20 % in 2012 (‘eligible regions’). The additional EUR 3 000 000 000 allocated to this line for the 2014-2020
period is intended to provide match funding to ESF interventions in the eligible regions. This appropriation is intended
to finance the creation of decent jobs.

While promoting gender equality, special attention should be paid to the situation of young women who can face
gender-specific obstacles to get a good quality offer of employment, continued education, an apprenticeship or a
traineeship.

This appropriation is to be used, amongst others, to support the establishment of educational structures combining
non-formal education, language courses, democratic awareness and vocational training in the regions most affected by
youth unemployment, both by state-actors and non-governmental organisations.

The margins available below the multiannual financial framework (MFF) ceilings for commitment appropriations for
2014-2017 will constitute a global MFF margin for commitments, to be made available over and above the ceilings
established in the MFF for 2016-2020 for policy objectives related to growth and employment, in particular youth
employment, as established in Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013 of 2 December 2013 laying down the
[multiannual financial framework for the years 2014-2020 (OJ L 347, 20.12.2013, p. 884).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2013&mm=12&jj=20&type=L&nnn=347&pppp=0884&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

_Remarks_

The general objective of the EaSI is to contribute to the Europe 2020 strategy and the related headline targets for
employment, education and poverty by providing financial support for the Union’s objectives.

The EaSI is structured around three complementarity axes: Progress, EURES and Microfinance and Social Entrepreneurship.

To achieve the general objectives of EaSI, in particular to promote workers’ geographical mobility and boost
employment opportunities by developing Union labour markets that are open and accessible to all, the specific
objectives of the EURES axis are to:

— ensure that job vacancies and applications, and any related information as well as working conditions and rights are
transparent for the potential applicants and the employers; this shall be achieved through their exchange and
dissemination at transnational, interregional and cross-border level using standard interoperability forms,

— help ensure that European-level job vacancies and mobility options are advertised in parallel to national job
vacancies and applications and not only after local or national options are exhausted,

— develop services for the recruitment and placing of workers in employment through the clearance of job vacancies
and applications at European level; this shall cover all phases of placement, ranging from pre-recruitment
preparation to post-placement assistance, including language skill development options, with a view to the
applicant’s successful integration into the labour market; such services shall include targeted mobility schemes to
fill job vacancies where labour market shortcomings have been identified and/or help particular groups of workers
such as young people,

— provide assistance for national and cross-border support activities organised by EURES partners,

— initial and further training of EURES advisers in the Member States,

— contacts between EURES advisers and cooperation between government employment services, including those of
candidate countries,

— promotion of EURES among firms and the general public,

— development of special structures for cooperation and services in border regions pursuant to point (b) of
Article 17(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1612/68,

— measures to help remove mobility obstacles, particularly in the field of work-related social security.

This programme should also facilitate the matching and placement of apprentices and trainees as a critical element in
helping the transition of young people from school to work, as already begun under the preparatory action ‘Your first
EURES job’ and complemented by the Youth Employment Initiative. Companies, particularly small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs), will be encouraged to recruit more young people, including by financial support.

Target groups:

— young people up to 30 years of age, regardless of their qualifications and work experience, as the scheme is not
exclusively tailored for labour market entrants,

— all legally established businesses, particularly SMEs, to assist with reducing the costs of international hiring that
affect mostly smaller companies.

Eligible jobs under this part of the programme 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.

Despite public perceptions, labour mobility is low in the Union. High unemployment and low labour mobility within
and between countries coexist with skill and labour shortages in some countries and regions. Well-performing labour
markets are important for facilitating adjustment to shocks, allocating resources to best effect and dealing with potential
ageing-related labour market shortages. Mobility within the Union can, in principle, help to remedy labour market
shortages and imbalances. The over-35 age group also faces higher mobility barriers, and it is therefore important to
put financial and/or other support specifically designed for this group to the test.

Reactivate is a mobility programme for adult traineeships and work trials lasting between 6 and 12 months in other
Member States. It is targeted at unemployed citizens in the 35+ age group, including the long-term unemployed (LTU).
This age group generally represents a population segment with strong skills based on work experience, whence the need
for this programme.

In the light of the number of LTUs, Reactivate will test support tailor-made for them. In order to encourage employers
to make job offers to unemployed persons from other Member States, Reactivate will test ways of engaging with
employers and forms of financial and/or other support for employers.

Reactivate is intended as an extension of the successful EURES First Job programme, offering similar advantages for
unemployed persons, in particular LTUs, over the age of 35. This project can build on EURES First Job as a sound
mobility platform.

Reactivate will give unemployed persons, including LTUs, in this age group an unprecedented opportunity to acquire
diversified knowledge and skills, to learn new languages, and to better understand the European internal market. All
these advantages greatly militate in favour of a stronger European identity and diversity while increasing labour mobility
and the employment rate.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover implementation of the preparatory action.

Inequalities are considered to be a cause of macroeconomic destabilisation and to reduce growth. Therefore European
and national action to correct inequalities affecting children can be seen as a long-term policy for macroeconomic
stabilisation and growth. Opening up opportunities can spur stronger economic performance and improve living
standards.

Fighting poverty and social exclusion is one of the Europe 2020 targets: to reduce by at least 20 million the number of
people in or at risk of poverty and social exclusion. However, between 2008 and 2014, the number of people at risk of
poverty or social exclusion in the EU-27 increased from 116 million to 121 million; almost every fourth person in the
EU-27 is at risk of poverty or social exclusion. Amongst this group, child poverty is alarming. In 2014, more than
26 million children in the Union were at risk of poverty and more than nine million suffered from severe material
deprivation. If no measures are taken to correct this situation, they will be at greater risk of failing in the education
system (Europe 2020 target for education) and will have the most difficulties in entering the labour market (Europe
2020 target for employment). The child guarantee is an integrated approach to tackling child poverty, aiming at fully
implementing the Commission’s ‘Investing in Children’ recommendation, to ensure that every child in Europe at risk of
poverty (including refugees) has access to free health care, free education, free childcare, decent housing and adequate
nutrition. Covering these five areas of action through European and national action plans would ensure that the living
conditions and opportunities of millions of children in Europe improve considerably and with a long-term perspective.
The child guarantee is a key horizontal policy and should be regarded as an investment in the stability and prosperity of
the Union, which is necessary for preserving the Union’s growth potential.

To make the child guarantee a successful instrument in the fight against child poverty, Union financial support should
be put in place to ensure a coordinated effort together with Member States towards common goals with binding
indicators. The preparatory action will lay down the implementing framework for the child guarantee:

(1) selecting comparative measurable criteria to assign funds in accordance with the Commission’s ‘Investing in
Children’ recommendation;

(2) assessing existing national and Union interventions tackling multi-dimensional aspects of child poverty and
mapping best practices;

(3) delineating the typology of programmes to be funded;

(4) establishing funding arrangements; and

(5) establishing governance mechanisms, including monitoring and evaluation.

_Remarks_

In the personal and household services sector (PHS), a sector with high potential for job creation, experience with
implementing service voucher schemes, such as in France or Belgium, has been positive. Most workers in the PHS sector
are women; however, 60% of them are migrants and many are cross-border workers, and consequently there are
important loopholes and limited or fragmented access to information about the rights and obligations of workers in
this sector. In Member States such as France and Belgium, a dedicated tax framework has been developed to regularise
activities in the sector and address the issue of undeclared work. In order to increase the number of Member States
applying a policy on PHS and to support decent work in this sector, the pilot project will have two main objectives: (1)
to help Member States develop service voucher schemes (or in an initial phase trial them in certain municipalities; and
(2) to introduce an effective social dialogue in this sector.

This pilot project will provide advice, technical assistance and a range of tailored guidance activities and recommendations to Member States interested in developing the PHS sector, and will support the exchange of good practices
among key stakeholders, national public administrations (municipalities/local administrations in the case of a trial
introduction) and organisations of domestic workers, carers and employers.

Regarding the social dialogue and decent working conditions, the project will facilitate the professionalisation of these
jobs, the dissemination of information on the rights and obligations of workers and employers and the creation and
development of an effective social dialogue.

This pilot project will need to be supported by the principal European stakeholders in the PHS sector.

reintegration into sustainable employment.

The actions undertaken by the EGF should be complementary to those of the ESF and there must be no double funding
from these instruments. EGF-supported actions or measures should aim to ensure that the largest possible number of
beneficiaries participating in these actions find sustainable employment as soon as possible before the final report is

This appropriation is intended to cover the EGF so as to enable the Union to provide time-limited 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. It is applicable to all applications
submitted up to 31 December 2013. For applications submitted between 1 May 2009 and 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 actions undertaken by the EGF should be complementary to those of the ESF. There must be no double funding

_Remarks_

The FEAD replaces the European Union’s Food Distribution Programme for the Most Deprived Persons of the
Community, which was discontinued at the end of 2013.

To ensure continuity between the two programmes, expenditure shall be eligible for a support from a FEAD operational
programme if it is incurred by a beneficiary and paid between 1 December 2013 and 31 December 2023.

The FEAD shall promote social cohesion, enhance social inclusion and therefore ultimately contribute to the objective
of eradicating poverty in the Union by contributing to achieving the poverty reduction target of at least 20 million of
the number of persons at risk of poverty and social exclusion in accordance with the Europe 2020 strategy, whilst
complementing the Structural Funds. Since the proportion of women at risk of poverty or social exclusion is higher
than is the case for men, FEAD will take a gender-sensitive approach by adapting measures to the groups actually at risk,
including women and the elderly. It shall contribute to achieving the specific objective of alleviating and eradicating the
worst forms of poverty, by providing non-financial assistance to the most deprived persons by food and/or basic
material assistance, and social inclusion activities aiming at the social integration of the most deprived persons.

**CHAPTER 04 06 — FUND FOR EUROPEAN AID TO THE MOST DEPRIVED (FEAD)** _(cont'd)_

_**04 06 01**_ _(cont'd)_

This objective and the results of the implementation of the FEAD shall be qualitatively and quantitatively assessed.

The FEAD shall complement and shall not replace or reduce sustainable national poverty eradication and social
inclusion policies, which remain the responsibility of Member States.

The resources for the FEAD available for budgetary commitment for the 2014-2020 period shall be EUR
3 395 684 880 in 2011 prices.

Poverty is a multidimensional problem and tackling it should become a primary goal. Greater emphasis needs to be
placed on poverty in all strategies, as poverty is a complex problem with many causes. Most importantly, it also has a
great impact not only on the present but also on the future. People who experience poverty, especially children, are at
greater risk of not succeeding in later life and of being excluded from society.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure for measures needed to cope with major crises affecting agricultural
production or distribution.

The reserve is to be established by applying at the beginning of each year a reduction to direct payments (Chapter 05
03) with the financial discipline mechanisms in accordance with Articles 25 and 26 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013
as well as Article 8 of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013. When the Commission considers the reserve needs to be called
on, in accordance with the relevant legislative act, it shall present to the European Parliament and the Council a
proposal for a transfer from the reserve to the corresponding budget lines financing the measure deemed necessary. Any
Commission proposal for a transfer to draw on the reserve must be preceded by an examination of the scope for
reallocating appropriations. By the end of the financial year, any amount of the reserve not made available for crisis
measures shall be reimbursed to the final recipients of direct payments according to the provisions of Article 26 (5) of
Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013. Any reimbursement will be done under Article 05 03 09 from appropriations carried
over from the previous financial year.

Transfers calling on the reserve and transfer back from the reserve to direct payments shall be made in accordance with
the Financial Regulation.

_Remarks_

This action will complement the earlier smart villages pilot project (Smart Eco Social Villages, 2016) and act on
considerations stemming from that pilot project as well as other lessons learned and knowledge obtained from actions
and initiatives under the EU Action for Smart Villages. This preparatory action will provide the necessary tools and
budget to set up plans and help create smart villages under real-life conditions.

This preparatory action will implement successful practices and ICT/online methods, such as setting up digital hubs
involving up to 10 villages and other good examples operating throughout the Union. This idea is closely bound up
with the Digital Single Market, digital platforms, urban-rural links, the sharing and collaborative economy and the
bioeconomy (innovation, precision farming, environmental management, renewable energies, supply chains, services,
local food), and improving quality of life, education and employment, taking account of the importance of women and
young people.

This action will enhance the ability to exchange and share agricultural machinery, including precision farming tools, in
order to maximize output from scarce resources. These goals are fully in line with the Cork Declaration 2.0, which
recognises the importance of giving farms access to appropriate technologies in order to deliver economic, social and
environmental benefits.

The action will focus on developing growth and jobs in rural areas through the following specific measures:

— selecting villages in the Union with common features: infrastructure, various resources, services, access to markets,
and

— offering solutions concerning:

— the Digital Single Market,

— urban-rural links,

— the bioeconomy and circular economy (innovation, precision farming, environmental management, local
renewable energies, supply chains, services, local food),

— the sharing and collaborative economy (new rural mobility solutions, such as car sharing, ride sharing; new
paradigms in tourism; sharing and exchange of agricultural machinery and services, etc.),

— social aspects (home care and outpatient care instead of hospitalisation),

— new full-time and part-time jobs created in the above-mentioned economies.

The action will be documented on film and in other media in order to show how it progresses. It will identify the
regulatory and legislative obstacles at local, Member State and Union level to the establishment of new business models
and access to various Union funding sources. One important outcome will be to propose regulatory changes enabling
these new business models to be adopted and at the same time protecting the rights of all stakeholders.

_Remarks_

_Former Item 05 09 03 01 (in part)_

This activity focuses on developing more sustainable and productive agriculture and forestry systems, while at the same
time developing services, concepts and policies for thriving rural livelihoods. In addition, emphasis is placed on healthy
and safe foods for all as well as competitive food processing methods that use fewer resources and produce fewer byproducts. In parallel, efforts are made on sustainably exploiting aquatic living resources (e.g. sustainable and
environmentally friendly fisheries). Low carbon, resource-efficient, sustainable and competitive European bio-based
industries are also promoted.

This appropriation will be used for agriculture-related research and innovation in order to secure sufficient supplies of
safe and high-quality food and other bio-based products; research projects with direct participation by primary
producers will be prioritised in order to maximise the practical applicability of results.

_Remarks_

This objective of ‘Creating an environment more conducive to private investment for transport infrastructure projects’
aims to implement the projects of common interest through financial instruments, based on an _ex ante_ assessment as
required by Article 224 of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1268/2012 of 29 October 2012 on the rules of
application of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 966/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the financial
[rules applicable to the general budget of the Union (OJ L 362, 31.12.2012, p. 1). In accordance with Article 21(4) of](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2012&mm=12&jj=31&type=L&nnn=362&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013, from 10 % to 20 % of the financial envelope for CEF transport will be available for
innovative financing instruments such as the Project Bonds Instrument, the Loan Guarantee Instrument and other
instruments such as joint ventures and the equity instruments to combine public and private financial resources to
accelerate infrastructure investments in Europe. The financial instruments are intended to facilitate access to private
financing and thus to accelerate or to make possible financing of the TEN-T projects eligible under the TEN-T guidelines
and Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013. The financial instruments are intended to be established as ‘debt’ or ‘equity’
frameworks and they should address specific market failures and provide appropriate financing solutions. They are
intended to be implemented as direct management by the entrusted entities, within the meaning of the Financial
Regulation or jointly with the entrusted entities. The entrusted entities must be accredited to provide guarantees to the
Commission on the protection of the Union financial interests in line with the requirements of the Financial Regulation.

Any repayment from financial instruments pursuant to Article 140(6) of the Financial Regulation, including capital
repayments, guarantees released, and repayment of the principal of loans, paid back to the Commission and entered in
Item 6 3 4 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with
point (i) of Article 21(3) of the Financial Regulation.

administrative simplification and make use of ICT systems in the waterborne and logistic sector, as well as support of
the sustainable development of the shipping sector.

This appropriation is intended to cover the development and implementation of a Union strategy for freight transport
logistics, including the digital transport and logistics agenda, providing a framework and actions for interoperable
multimodal transport information and management systems and related standardisation issues, administrative
(European) single window(s) for multimodal transport, a single transport document and a multimodal liability regime.

This appropriation is also intended to cover the development of a reference framework on carbon footprint
measurement, certification and reduction, modal shift policy including the outstanding actions under the former
Marco Polo programme, Motorways of the Sea, multimodal and combined transport, digitalisation of the transport and
logistics sector and supporting standardisation and harmonisation of equipment.

_Maritime safety_

This appropriation is intended to cover monitoring, evaluation and revision (impact assessment) of Union legislation on
maritime safety, protecting the maritime environment and promoting qualifications and working conditions for
seafarers.

_Passenger rights_

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on monitoring, evaluation, revision and raising awareness actions
of Union legislation on passenger rights.

In connection with Regulation (EC) No 261/2004, the Commission needs to develop additional measures to make
enforcement of that Regulation more efficient. The implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2006 and Council
[Regulation (EC) No 2027/97 of 9 October 1997 on air carrier liability in the event of accidents (OJ L 285, 17.10.1997,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=1997&mm=10&jj=17&type=L&nnn=285&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

The implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1371/2007 requires specific implementation action to ensure its correct
application and enforcement in the Member States due to the complex interaction of regional, national and international (COTIF) administrative structures involved in the implementation.

The implementation of Regulation (EU) No 1177/2010 requires specific implementation actions to ensure its correct
application and enforcement in the Member States and the compliance by Member States with their legal reporting
obligations towards the Commission.

The implementation of Regulation (EU) No 181/2011 requires specific implementation actions in order to ensure its
correct application and enforcement in the Member States and the compliance by Member States with their legal
reporting obligations towards the Commission.

As an important implementation support measure the Commission conducts targeted actions covering some or all
Member States to raise public awareness on passenger rights. Nearly one third of Union citizens are aware of their rights
and obligations when buying a ticket to travel (31 %), although 59 % are said to be unaware of them (Eurobarometer on
passenger rights 2014).

_TITLE 06 — MOBILITY AND TRANSPORT_

These actions and objectives could be supported at different levels (local, regional, national, European and international), for all transport modes and sectors and 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 merely resulted in more breaches of Union 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. Union consumers 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.

_Road safety_

The Commission communication of 20 July 2010 entitled ‘Towards a European road safety area: policy orientations on
road safety 2011-2020’ (COM(2010) 389 final) presents seven objectives: road user education, enforcement of traffic
rules, safe infrastructure, safe vehicles, use of modern technology, post-injury emergency responses and a special focus
on vulnerable road users. Work continues on the Commission’s proposal, on the regular update of the Union law on
driving licences, and on the revision of the rules on qualification and training for professional drivers, on the follow-up
to the Directives 2014/45/EU, 2014/46/EU and 2014/47/EU, as well as towards a strategy on serious road traffic
injuries. The Commission’s road safety work also includes the management of the European Road Safety Charter, the
management of rules relating to the transport of dangerous goods, the maintenance of a European database on road
accidents — Community Road Accident Database (CARE), the follow-up on the infrastructure management and tunnel
safety directives and on various aspects of vulnerable road user safety. The implementation of the policy orientations
2011-2020 would also require specific implementation action for the exchange of good practices, road safety
campaigns, calls for proposals and development of the road safety observatory; as well as the evaluations of options
for making the road safety in the Union work more effectively and efficiently in the future.

This appropriation is also intended to cover expenditure on communication activities and on public events such as the
annual European Road Safety Day and similar awareness-raising and citizen interaction initiatives.

It is also intended to establish efficient cross-border cooperation between Member States concerning the enforcement of
road safety related traffic offences.

_Land transport_

The main activities in the land transport area concern the implementation and review of existing policies, enhancing
sectoral cooperation and the planning of new initiatives. Among others, this includes activities in areas such as
infrastructure charging, market access, social rules (including their enforcement), technical rules, safety rules and
international aspects (land transport relations with third countries and international organisations dealing with land
transport issues). All these activities require close cooperation with stakeholders.

_Rail market_

The full implementation of the Directive 2012/34/EU and Regulation (EU) No 913/2010 are key priorities to encourage
competitiveness of railways. The legislation aims to open rail markets, improve the interoperability and safety of rail
services and thus encourage the development of integrated rail system leading to a Single European Rail Area. In
addition, the Commission services are reinforcing international transport cooperation on railway policy.

_**06 02 05**_ _(cont'd)_

Encouraging sectoral cooperation is essential for effective implementation of Union rail legislation. Directive 2012/34/
EU provides for the creation of the European Network of Rail Regulatory Bodies (ENRRB) and of the European Network
of Infrastructure Managers (Platform of Rail Infrastructure Managers in Europe, PRIME). Informal cooperation
frameworks have been established for railway undertakings (RUs) to share experience at Union level (RU Dialogue)
and Ministries (Rail Directors Meetings). Equally, cooperation with third countries (the Gulf countries, China, Iran, Japan,
Brazil, etc.) is important part of promoting Union’s rail industry worldwide.

In this context, this appropriation is intended to cover the initiatives and the work of cooperation platforms that
contribute to timely implementation of Single European Rail Area and addressing its future developments and
international cooperation.

_Ports and inland navigation_

This appropriation is intended to cover development, monitoring, evaluation and revision (impact assessment) of Union
legislation and policy on ports and inland navigation.

_Single European Sky_

The full implementation of the Single European Sky (four basic Regulations (EC) No 549/2004, (EC) No 550/2004, (EC)
No 551/2004 and (EC) No 552/2004, and more than 20 implementing rules) is a key priority to improve the
performance of the air navigation services in terms of safety, cost efficiency of the air navigation service provision,
reduction of air traffic f low delays and environmental performance, and hence of air transport in Europe.

Implementing the Single European Sky and Single European Sky Air Traffic Management Research (SESAR) project, its
technological pillar with the assistance of the SESAR Joint Undertaking, the SESAR Deployment Manager and the
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) are also priorities in the Union’s Aviation Strategy adopted in 2015.

The implementation of the performance scheme of the Single European Sky with the assistance of the Performance
Review Body (PRB) is pursued under this article, with the assistance of EASA and Eurocontrol.

In this context, promoting the Single European Sky and the initiatives that contribute to its timely implementation,
including through the involvement and consultation of stakeholders (Industry Consultation Body, National Supervisory
Authorities Coordinating Platform and European Group on the Human Dimension), as well as addressing its future
development are also important activities for the Commission and are pursued under this article.

_Aviation safety, environment and cooperation with the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO)_

The use of several legislative tools are important to ensure the safety of European Aviation to ensure the achievement of
an environmentally sustainable growth and protect Union citizens when travelling outside of the Union.

According to Articles 3 to 5 of Regulation (EC) No 2111/2005, the Commission may impose total bans or partial
restrictions on air carriers from third countries coming to the Union. In that context and in accordance with Article 3(4)
of Regulation (EC) No 473/2006, the Commission, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and experts from the
Member States may carry out assessment missions to conduct on-the-spot checks and to identify safety deficiencies of
the air carriers and the authorities responsible for their oversight. The cost of on-site assessment visits for national
experts needs to be reimbursed by the Union.

**CHAPTER 06 02 — EUROPEAN TRANSPORT POLICY** _(cont'd)_

_**06 02 05**_ _(cont'd)_

There is a clear need to complement these missions with more positive and preventive actions as well as with _ex post_
technical cooperation to assist the countries concerned by the ban or restrictions to correct the deficiencies. In addition,
the Commission and EASA have as their objective the promotion of the highest standards of aviation safety across the
world.

In this context, the large-scale Union projects in the area of civil aviation cooperation managed by other DirectoratesGeneral (NEAR, DEVCO and FPI), which can only be implemented on a long-term basis, do not provide an immediate
answer to short-term needs.

The objective of this initiative is therefore to complement the existing instruments by establishing a f lexible tool to
implement ad hoc preventive and assistance (corrective) actions in favour of the national authorities responsible for the
oversight of air carriers affected by the Union ban within the Union. The actions envisaged are small-scale and shortterm activities.

Since the framework service contract concluded between EASA and MOVE in 2009 proved to be an effective and
efficient tool to carry out technical assistance, the contract with EASA was renewed for the period 2013-2016 and a
new framework contract is under preparation for the period 2017-2020.

In addition, Regulation (EU) No 996/2010 provides for the establishment of a European Network of Civil Aviation
Safety Investigation Authorities (Encasia). Encasia is required to develop actions in order to further improve the quality
of investigations conducted by safety investigation authorities and to enhance accident prevention in the Union.
According to that Regulation, the Commission is associated with Encasia’s work and needs to provide Encasia with the
necessary support.

Finally, the Memorandum of Cooperation between the Union and International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO)
covers areas of aviation for which both the Commission and the ICAO have responsibilities (i.e. safety, environment, air
traffic management and aviation security). This strengthened cooperation will ensure the indispensable participation in
and contribution to ICAO initiatives in several key aviation policy areas which are being pursued at the global level. This
includes the initiative to strengthen the safety of international aviation on a worldwide basis, or the development and
implementation of measures with regard to the environmental impact of aviation which are acceptable worldwide. It
aims to ensure that Union interests (including of an industrial nature, for example in the area of the definition of
worldwide technical standards) are better taken into consideration by ICAO. Through the agreement, ICAO will also be
brought to accept, support and enhance the increasingly important role which regional organisations play in the current
and future development of international aviation.

_Sustainable and intelligent transport, including in urban areas_

This appropriation is intended to support policy and strategy development and implementation, as well as the
implementation of Directives and the related delegated and implementing acts.

_Social issues_

This appropriation is intended to cover horizontal social issues. To reduce the risk of labour shortages, it will support
actions aiming at attracting more workers to the transport sector, bearing in mind the effects of automation (a third of
transport workers are over 50 years old). It will also support actions bringing more gender balance to the sector
(transport remains male dominated with only 22 % of female workers and less than 3%, in technical positions).

_Youth mobility_

This appropriation is intended to implement actions related to the mobility of young people in order to reinforce their
knowledge and appreciation of other Union cultures by encouraging them to travel in a multi-modal, sustainable way.
To this end, the Commission will, among other actions, promote travelling schemes and related campaigning actions

06 02 77 10 _(cont'd)_

Port cities are facing huge challenges in reconciling competition and sustainable urban development. Those challenges
include relocation of port functions, container transport, redevelopment of port-city interfaces and waterfronts and
dialogue with city inhabitants. Tensions between city and port, tourism and industry, natural and built-up areas need to
be addressed. Smart city and smart port city ambitions should be complementary. A knowledge- and ICT-based smart
port city could work hand in hand with inland interfaces to further increase service efficiency and quality. Having regard
to the motorways of the sea concept, this is in line with the Europe 2020 strategy and the revised White Paper of
28 March 2011 entitled ‘Roadmap to a Single European Transport Area — Towards a competitive and resource efficient
transport system’ (COM(2011) 144 final).

Cities and ports are faced with the same problems and have the same opportunities, so there should be innovative
solutions for: (a) reducing greenhouse gas emissions from ocean shipping and also from port operations; (b) developing
the linkage with hinterland transport (rail, road, inland); (c) enhancing renewable energy use and improving energy
efficiency; (d) promoting ICT use and interoperability; (e) strengthening the competitiveness of port cities, bearing in
mind the strategic position of the outermost regions and the importance of connectivity between islands; and (f)
promoting synergies between city and port.

These innovative actions should also have an impact on maritime and coastal tourism. Actions should also focus on
port facilities and dialogue between port and city authorities for urban and port planning. Coastal and maritime
tourism also has a role to play in the diversification of ports. This preparatory action will identify the benefits of smart
port city development around Europe and take into consideration the full significance of ports. The action will also
include initiatives to create a European smart port city network.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

This preparatory action will demonstrate an AGS for RPAS (drones) f lying below 150 metres (500 feet) above ground
level. It will be set up by connecting the drone-controlling remote pilot station on the ground to a web-based platform.
The web-based platform will display the position of the RPAS operation and will validate compliance with different
national legislation, depending on the location of the operation. The platform can generate no-f ly zones on the basis of
aviation standards.

By connecting the web-based platform to the RPAS, users will not be able to operate RPAS in no-f ly zones. No-f ly
zones can be generated, monitored and controlled by the authorities responsible. The information generated by the
web-based platform can also be shared with all stakeholders in the European aviation network.

This action can provide a solution for the safe and secure integration of small drones into the existing aviation network,
guaranteeing a level of safety equivalent to that in manned aviation and resulting in a win-win situation for all RPAS
stakeholders. Privacy can be guaranteed by using no-f ly zones for RPAS operations; and, more importantly, SMEs in the
RPAS industries will be helped to create promising new job opportunities in Europe. The following RPAS services can
be demonstrated by using a web-based platform: an AGS monitored and controlled by the authorities responsible, and a
validation service checking the regulations applicable.

This platform could be accessible to various stakeholders, such as RPAS users, air navigation service providers, civil
aviation authorities, police and emergency services, RPAS manufacturers and qualified entities. It will use existing
aviation standards, be compliant with manned aviation rules and result in safer, more secure and standardised
integration into the aviation network. In addition to those standards, the platform must be interoperable with all
RPAS so as to open the European market for all RPAS manufacturers and all RPAS users. Finally, this RPAS air traffic
management platform should be scalable for all Member States.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

_Context_

Around 55 % of car journeys are less than five kilometres long. The average occupancy rate is low at around 1,3
persons per car. Those figures show that alternatives to the private car use are still underdeveloped and that there is a
huge potential for a shift towards more sustainable modes.

Raising awareness is a first step towards developing alternatives to private car use. The aim is to encourage behavioural
change, for instance for home-to-work and home-to-shop journeys. There are already a number of initiatives to change
individual car use into non-motorised individual mobility, such as walking and cycling, including using electric bicycles
(which has the potential to be the most reliable and fastest mode for distances up to 10 kilometres). But these initiatives,
which are mostly used to target individual behaviours, could be speeded up by means of a collective approach.

_Project_

The pilot project is all about developing new tools to raise awareness at a collective level. There is a high potential for
experimentation in public and private companies, local authorities and international conferences to use new tools to
measure and set objectives for modal shift at a group level. These tools are called ‘group-performance-based systems’
using crowdsourcing and connected technologies. They allow better f lexibility, team spirit and long-term coordination
between people, and also provide statistics and mass data on behavioural change. The pilot project will develop and
disseminate a new set of tools to limit the use of cars to what is strictly necessary.

temperature to well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels.’;

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

In rural areas in the Union there has been a large increase in projects developing shared mobility interconnected with
public transport and non-motorised individual mobility. These are based on different conventional and digital tools (e.g.
smartphone apps) and involve, for example, car sharing, car pooling, shared driving, hitchhiking, taxi sharing and
f lexible call buses. This development is a huge opportunity to give a boost to ‘smart rural transport areas’ (SMARTAs).
The pilot project will improve knowledge and understanding of whether there is a need for a cross-border approach to
SMARTAs, such as exchanges of best practice examples, interoperability, sustainable regional development, cohesion,
research and development and innovation.

The pilot project has the potential to generate win-win situations, such as reducing CO 2 emissions (COP 21 Agreement),
better mobility connections in remote and rural areas for persons who cannot or do not want to own a car (young,
elderly and socially disadvantaged people).

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

This pilot project will develop a digital platform for urban transport routes suitable for people with reduced mobility.

One in six people in Europe is affected by disability to some degree and with an ageing population the need for
information about barrier-free transport options in cities will only grow with time. While municipalities and transport
companies are working on making transport more accessible and harmonised across Europe, information regarding
barrier-free mobility options is still not clearly communicated, and many of those affected still need to rely on privately
organised transport options.

The proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the approximation of the laws,
regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States as regards the accessibility requirements for products
and services (COM(2015) 615 final) laid the groundwork for improving the life of people with disabilities. It aims to
overcome the divergent, and often contradictory, national accessibility requirements which have created barriers for
business and thus have prevented people with disabilities from benefiting from the potential of the internal market.

The pilot project will first support the collection of information about barrier-free mobility in urban areas and then link
the information to a common online platform, which should ideally be accessible via a mobile app and similarly
accessible information tools. This platform will, for example, take into account a more accurate walking speed and the
accessibility of public transport options, of certain streets, and of existing specialised transport services.

One focus of the proposed Directive is to make transport more accessible for people with disabilities by harmonising
Member State accessibility requirements. This pilot project will therefore build on this momentum by helping
information about accessible transport to be better communicated to the target group. This should encourage
transport companies to improve their accessibility standards more quickly and businesses to take advantage of the
digital economy market opportunities offered by this still relatively untapped market.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

The increased migratory pressure on the Union has seriously affected both traffic security and road haulage industry
security in a number of Member States in certain locations, such as Calais, where refugees are trying to get into trucks. It
is necessary to react to this crisis and to provide safe parking points for trucks in order to prevent refugee deaths and
safeguard truck drivers, as well as to help prevent material damage for hauliers.

The pilot project will cover expenditure on setting up secure and guarded parking areas for trucks along the major road
transport routes through Europe to border locations, at points where traffic and truck security is affected by large
numbers of refugees trying to climb into trucks to cross a border.

This appropriation will be in addition to the EUR 5 000 000 Commission Vice-President Frans Timmermans promised
to the French authorities to deal with the refugee camps in Calais.

_Remarks_

This new pilot project will address the lack of attention given by the Union to behaviour in connection with
autonomous driving. Much research has been conducted in recent years into autonomous driving, both by car
manufacturers and by the research community. It has mainly focused on the technological aspects of autonomous
driving, i.e. interoperability of vehicles, interaction with road infrastructure, data security, data reliability, data protection
and liability, etc.

The pilot project will provide a new area for studies and research that puts the emphasis on driver behaviour, which has
been somewhat neglected both by policy makers and by the industry. It will provide the Commission and the legislative
authority with a complementary view of the interaction of human behaviour with autonomous driving with a view to
addressing potential problems arising from the large-scale introduction of autonomous driving in the Union in order to
make it a success and improve road safety.

The pilot project will gather information from the research community on road safety in order to address the following

areas:

— the human factor in new autonomous driving; opinions and views of professional/frequent/occasional drivers,
broken down by age and other relevant criteria (country, gender, etc.);

— identifying and proposing solutions to address ‘resistance’ by the driver community to the introduction of
autonomous vehicles;

— the training needs of drivers in connection with new autonomous forms of driving; need for additional/specific/less
certification for self-drivers (compulsory training, additional requirements to obtain a driving licence, voluntary
schemes, etc.);

— interaction between autonomous and traditional drivers; attitudes of drivers and other road users towards
autonomous drivers and ways of alerting other road users to autonomous driving.

_Remarks_

The Union is committed to halving the number of fatal road accidents by 2020. Cross-European enforcement
operations supported by information and awareness campaigns could help to achieve this goal. Therefore a coordinated
pan-European enforcement event should take place across the TEN-T network and Member States should sign up to it.

The Commission will therefore fund a one-month coordinated operation across the TEN-T network. European police
operations in Member States should be coordinated. As more than half of all fatal accidents occur on rural roads, the
event could take place in rural areas and be supported by targeted campaigns to raise awareness. It should be focused on
the main killer: speed.

_Remarks_

The pilot project will reduce odometer fraud by facilitating odometer information exchange in the Union.

It will include an assessment, a feasibility study and a technical business analysis to identify and explore solutions and
define the scope for a future odometer information exchange system in the Union. It will provide support for
roadworthiness certification in connection with Directive 2014/45/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council
of 3 April 2014 on periodic roadworthiness tests for motor vehicles and their trailers and repealing Directive 2009/40/
[EC (OJ L 127, 29.4.2014, p. 51).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2014&mm=04&jj=29&type=L&nnn=127&pppp=0051&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

Recent studies show that in major European markets for used cars one-third of all vehicles have had their odometers
manipulated. The average value of the fraud is roughly EUR 3 000, with central budget revenue losses estimated at
between EUR 5 600 000 000 and EUR 9 600 000 000 a year. New vehicles are mainly checked and serviced at official
dealerships as a condition of warranty. Dealerships keep records of odometer readings, but this information is not
publicly accessible. New vehicles do not undergo roadworthiness testing until they are four years old. During the
subsequent annual inspections, odometer readings are transmitted to databases in the Member States but are not
exchanged. When a vehicle changes hands or is sold abroad, there is a break in the odometer track record, presenting
the opportunity for tampering with odometer readings. It is becoming increasingly easy to do this with a minimum of
investment in software, knowledge and time.

_Remarks_

These remarks are applicable to all the budget lines in this chapter.

These appropriations are intended to be used for Horizon 2020 — the framework programme for research and
innovation, which covers the 2014 to 2020 period, and for the completion of the previous research programmes
(seventh framework programme and preceding framework programmes).

Horizon 2020 will play a central role in the implementation of the Europe 2020 f lagship initiative ‘Innovation Union’
and other f lagship initiatives, notably ‘Resource-efficient Europe’, ‘An industrial policy for the globalisation era’, and ‘A
digital agenda for Europe’, as well as in the development and functioning of the European Research Area. Horizon 2020
will contribute to building an economy based on knowledge and innovation across the whole Union by leveraging
sufficient additional research, development and innovation funding. The programme will be carried out in order to
pursue the general objectives described in Article 179 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, in order
to contribute to the creation of a society of knowledge, based on the European research area, i.e. supporting
transnational cooperation at all levels throughout the Union, taking the dynamism, creativity and the excellence of
European research to the limits of knowledge, strengthening human resources for research and for technology in
Europe, quantitatively and qualitatively and research and innovation capacities in the whole of Europe and ensuring
optimum use thereof.

In Horizon 2020, gender equality is addressed as a cross-cutting issue in order to rectify imbalances between women
and men and to integrate a gender dimension in research and innovation content. Particular account will be taken of the
need to step up efforts to enhance the participation at all levels, including decision making, of women in research and
innovation.

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 are intended to be used in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1290/2013 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 laying down the rules for participation and dissemination in
‘Horizon 2020 — the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (2014-2020)’ and repealing Regulation (EC)

_**06 03 03**_ _**Societal challenges**_

_Remarks_

This priority of Horizon 2020 responds directly to the policy priorities and societal challenges identified in the Europe
2020 strategy. Those activities will be implemented using a challenge-based approach which brings together resources
and knowledge across different fields, technologies and disciplines. The activities will cover the full cycle from research
to market, with a new focus on innovation-related activities such as piloting, demonstration, test beds, support for
public procurement, design, end-user driven innovation, social innovation and market take-up of innovations. The
activities will support directly the corresponding sectoral policy competences at Union level.

Funding will be focused on the following challenges:

— smart, green and integrated transport,

— innovation and research, particularly in the areas of behavioural change, modal shift, accessibility for all, integration
(interconnectivity, intermodality, interoperability) and sustainability (climate change, gas and noise emission
reduction), which are of crucial importance for the transport and tourism sectors.

_Remarks_

_Former Item 06 03 03 01 (in part)_

This appropriation is intended to cover research and innovation actions that should substantially contribute to shifting
transport into a new era of smart mobility. Actions under this item should support the development and take-up of the
necessary solutions for all transport modes, drastically reducing transport emissions that are harmful to the
environment, lowering the dependence of transport on fossil fuels, and hence reducing transport impact on biodiversity
and preserve natural resources. This is expected to be achieved by investing in specific activities, particularly in the form
of large public-private partnerships, such as making aircraft, trains, vehicles and vessels cleaner and quieter, developing
smart equipment, infrastructure and services and improving transport and mobility in urban areas.

Research and innovation carried under this item is expected to make important contributions to optimise performance
and efficiency in the face of growing demands for mobility. Actions under this item will also focus on substantially
reducing traffic congestion, substantially improving the mobility of people and freight, developing and applying new
concepts of freight transport and logistics and reducing accident rates and fatal casualties and improving security.
Actions under this item are indeed intended to contribute to making Europe the safest region for aviation and to move
towards the target of zero fatalities in road transport by 2050.

Research and innovation is expected to play a significant role in achieving global leadership for the European transport
industry and contributing to the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, staying ahead in new technologies and reducing the costs of existing manufacturing processes, therefore contributing to economic growth and
highly skilled jobs in the European transport industry. In this context, actions to develop the next generation of
transport means and explore entirely new transport concepts are expected to be developed and covered by this
appropriation.

Socioeconomic research and forward-looking activities for policymaking will also be covered by this appropriation:
actions to support policy analysis and development including on socioeconomic aspects of transport are necessary to
promote innovation and meet the challenges raised by transport.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

The Coordination of Information on the Environment (Corine) programme was set up by the Commission in 1991
with the principal aims of defining and protecting biotopes, combating environmental pollution, mapping the different
types of land cover and preserving the natural environment. The database resulting from the programme was
subsequently replaced by the European Union Nature Information System (EUNIS) database, which contains an
inventory of European habitats (natural, near-natural, artificial, terrestrial and aquatic) and serves as the basis for
Union nature legislation (Natura 2000).

However, that inventory does not include the species and habitats to be found in the French outermost regions
(Martinique, Guadeloupe, French Guiana, Réunion and Mayotte), each of which has its own highly specific biological
and ecological features and a very large proportion of endemic species.

The purpose of this pilot project is to use the same tools as the Corine Biotope and EUNIS programmes to compile an
inventory of species and habitats and environmentally sensitive areas in these regions, which number among the world's
biodiversity hotspots. A new common database of this kind is necessary in order to identify any gaps in knowledge and
to take the action required in order to preserve the biotope of these regions, along the lines of that taken for the other
Union regions.

This approach, which has already demonstrated its feasibility and value in other Union regions, is a first step on the road
towards the adoption of legislation to preserve biodiversity in the French outermost regions. Advantage will be taken of
any possible synergies with the work carried out under the BEST preparatory action.

_Remarks_

Action 5 of the EU Biodiversity Strategy urges Member States to map and assess the state of ecosystems and their
services in their national territory. A Working Group on Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services
(MAES) was established in 2012.

The pilot project will start by assessing the state of the MAES exercise in the participating overseas entities, and by
inventorying and substantiating the human and material capacities present in each of them.

It will capitalise on the work of BEST (initially supported by a preparatory action under the 2011, 2012 and 2013
budgets) and NETBIOME (supported via the 7th research Framework Programme) projects and it can also build on the
inventory of species and habitats and the MAES experience planned under the pilot project entitled ‘Inventory of species
and habitats in the French outermost regions’ adopted under the 2016 budget (Item 07 02 77 34). It will then choose
as case studies a specific region and a particular contribution on which to focus the work of a dedicated team of local
experts, policymakers and civil society members pooled from across the outermost regions (ORs) and overseas
countries and territories (OCTs).

This project will produce a tangible contribution for the MAES exercise and will demonstrate the feasibility and added
value of a bottom-up approach, involving and empowering local actors. If successful, this project will allow testing and
implementation of the MAES methodology in different regions of the world, providing methodologies and good
practice guidelines and contributing to worldwide Union leadership in this area.

The pilot project will involve policymakers, researchers and civil society in the development of methodologies for
mapping and assessing the state of ecosystems and their services in the ORs and OCTs. A coordinated and synergistic
approach is advocated so as to turn the geographical, political and knowledge base fragmentation of these entities into
assets, pooling resources and building robust participatory tools.

This pilot project will provide financial support for the development of a new ‘Network of European Green Cities’
(comprising European Green Capital Winners and cities shortlisted for the award) in order to share their experiences,
knowledge and expertise on sustainable urban development with other European cities. The network will promote
environmental sustainability in European cities through a series of specific actions to help all cities — from ‘greener’
cities to those whose environmental performance is less advanced — to take further steps towards genuine
sustainability.

Each year since 2010, the Union has awarded the title of European Green Capital to a city in the Union which has a
consistent record of achieving high environmental standards, is committed to ongoing and ambitious goals for further
environmental improvement and sustainable development, and can act as a role model to inspire other cities and
promote best practices for all other European cities. While winning cities take some action throughout the year to
promote the concept of the green city, their budget and scope for Europe-wide dissemination is very limited.

The idea of this project is to draw on the wide range of lessons learnt from all the previous applicants considered
worthy of consideration for the award and to consolidate these valuable experiences and communicate them to other
cities, so that they might be inspired by such actions and understand what was involved in putting them in place. In
effect this will be about enhancing the impact of the European Green Capital Award in the long term and to achieve
spill-over effects for the benefit of entire regions and countries.

This project will go beyond simply organising the exchange of examples of good practice (although this is an important
element of it) and will also seek to develop a specific set of tool kits and education materials that different types of city
administration wishing to take steps towards becoming more sustainable could use. These tools will be combined with
strategically targeted seminars, workshops and/or conferences, aimed at maximising the environmental benefits of the
work (i.e. based on an analysis of where in the Union such experience could most usefully be disseminated to greatest
effect). The pilot project will also need to provide the necessary appropriations to finance the setting up and running of
the network.

As a starting point the cities to be invited to join the ‘Network of European Green Cities’ will be:

(a) former winners of the award: Stockholm (2010); Hamburg (2011); Vitoria-Gastiez (2012); Nantes (2013);
Copenhagen (2014); Bristol (2015); Ljubljana (2016); and Essen (2017);

(b) former runners-up: Amsterdam, Freiburg, Münster, Oslo, Barcelona, Malmö, Nuremberg, Reykjavik, Frankfurt,
Brussels, Glasgow, Nijmegen, 's-Hertogenbosch and Umeå.

All future winners and runners-up will be invited to join. Management of the network's membership will be handled by
the Commission.

_Remarks_

The existing pilot project should be continued by running awareness-raising and targeted information campaigns and
specific capacity-building activities to implement the findings of the current project. In particular, the inclusion of
capacity building at regional and local level to address e.g. monitoring and surveillance, the inclusion of dedicated
measures in the relevant air quality plans and an assessment of the effectiveness of these measures will allow the firstphase results to be built upon and disseminated on a wider scale.

Specific support is also required for the application on a voluntary basis of the various measures identified in the first
project by certain municipalities in the two countries concerned.

For the continuation of the project, the following objectives could also be considered:

— evaluation of the health hazard posed by residential solid waste burning relative to regular activities;

— a harmonised cost-benefit analysis of the results obtained in the experiments;

— a detailed strategy to curtail illegal residential burning of solid waste at European level.

_Remarks_

This pilot project was first introduced in 2017 and it should be continued for another year, with new funds, so that it
can reach its full potential. The pilot project must not be restricted only to those eight organisations that have signed up
to the EU Platform on Coexistence between People and Large Carnivores, but should be open to any other (local or
regional) organisation whose objectives are in line with the EU Platform’s activities.

The four main large carnivore species in Europe — brown bear, wolf, Eurasian lynx and wolverine — are among the
most challenging groups of species in conservation terms. The Commission has made significant efforts to understand
both their biological needs and the conf licts between stakeholders. There is a wide range of conf lict mitigation
experience available, ranging from local knowledge of traditional animal husbandry and hunting practices to the latest
in high-tech research, including from projects applied locally and co-funded by the EU LIFE programme. In 2012, a
prioritising exercise involving multiple experts and stakeholders allowed the establishment of cross-cutting and speciesspecific ‘key actions’ for each large carnivore population. In summer 2014, the EU Platform on Coexistence between
People and Large Carnivores was established to allow farmers, herders, conservationists, hunters, landowners and
scientists to exchange ideas and best practices. The mission of the Platform is ‘to promote ways and means to minimise,
and wherever possible, find solutions to, conf licts between human interests and the presence of large carnivore species,
by exchanging knowledge and by working together in an open-ended, constructive and mutually respectful way’.

The EU Platform faces a serious challenge in transmitting the good practices discussed to, and cooperation with,
stakeholders coexisting with large carnivores on the ground. Its members lack the resources to engage fully in
communicating with their own members or to travel to regional meetings. In order to tackle the main coexistence
problems at their sources, similar groupings are needed locally. At the same time, making the link to the Union level
and improving communication both vertically and horizontally between governance levels in order to effectively
transmit information is essential. The objective of this project is therefore to establish several pilot local or regional
groupings of stakeholders based on the model of the EU Platform. Experience from other regional platforms, e.g.
established through LIFE projects, will be built upon.

_Methods and requirements_

— Select two areas in Europe for the pilot studies where there are serious conf licts involving coexistence between
humans and large carnivores and where few solutions have been tested.

— Establish a regional Platform on Coexistence between People and Large Carnivores involving a grouping of
stakeholders representing the main interest groups active in the area, referencing the EU Platform’s agreement as a
starting point and taking into account experience of other regional platforms.

— Using ‘Key actions for large carnivore populations in Europe’ as a basis, carry out a prioritisation exercise with
stakeholders to establish which key actions have the greatest potential to be implemented in which locations. The
focus will be on actions relating to conf lict resolution, communication, reducing socio-economic problems and
establishing win-win socio-economic benefits in line with the objectives of EU Nature Directives and the EU 2020
biodiversity strategy.

— Support the implementation of two or three actions (funded through the pilot project).

In order to drive forward the action, a key beneficiary will be responsible for coordinating the action, taking steps to
identify and establish local platforms and managing interaction between the Union and regional platforms. The key
beneficiary will manage a budget for each regional platform to encourage stakeholder participation, support individual
members on study trips or attending regional meetings and funding the key actions decided upon by the regional
platform. Ensuring appropriate mediation, including in the selection of platform members, will also be important.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

The Commission recently conducted a fitness check on the BHD to evaluate them in accordance with five criteria:
effectiveness, efficiency, coherence, relevance, and Union added value. The evaluation revealed that key barriers to BHD
performance relate to insufficient implementation, poor integration and conf licts with other policies and economic
sectors, and insufficient cooperation among relevant stakeholders and organisations. Knowledge gaps and insufficient
access to information have been identified as significant problems by stakeholders in implementation, including in
relation to the effectiveness and efficiency of site and species permitting under the directives. Additionally, the collation
and analysis of case studies, tools and recommendations for improving the BHD’s implementation was beyond the
scope of the fitness check.

The pilot project will fill that gap and help improve BHD implementation through systematically collecting and
analysing the knowledge, evidence, tools and principles that can help improve BHD performance.

In view of the vast experience gained by scientists and other knowledge-holders across the Union, an effective way
forward is therefore to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis, and to develop a comprehensive set of guidelines
for better implementation. Current approaches to do so could be complemented by having the scientific community coproduce the necessary knowledge base as a cost-effective way to maximise comprehensiveness, geographical representation and quality.

The pilot project will focus on conducting such a systematic review and developing the first steps towards a preparatory
action to implement the proposed improvements. Key elements of the review will be:

(a) to generate a comprehensive database of peer-reviewed publications and other knowledge across all Member States,
collecting and organising tools, principles, guidelines, recommendations and case-study experiences indicating how
to improve BHD implementation. The database will build on, and extend, the existing literature database already
collected during the fitness check and will include categorisation based on scale, geography and policy relevance;

(b) to assess how:

— effectiveness could be enhanced in terms of planning, management and monitoring;

— cost-efficiency could be improved by reducing conf licts and improving use of existing funds;

— other Union policies affect BHD implementation and where improvements can be made with a view to
reducing conf licts and increasing policy integration;

— enforcement mechanisms and administration can be improved to maximise the Union’s role in effective
implementation of the BHD;

(c) to conduct workshops to collate knowledge, discuss options, interpret the application of the evidence, create
evidence-based guidance and identify future knowledge needs (five workshops totalling at least 100 participants);

(d) to conduct a robust meta-analysis of the outcomes, including a quantitative comparison of the cost-effectiveness
and cost-efficiency of different policy instruments;

(e) to generate a set of carefully regionalised, scale-sensitive, non-prescriptive recommendations;

(f) to open the recommendations for discussion and a peer review by the scientific community in order to maximise
outcome quality and transparency, and subsequently enhance cooperation with all relevant stakeholders.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

Animal testing is used in Europe for four different purposes: basic research, applied research, toxicology and teaching.

Directive 2010/63/EU lays down a European framework for the protection of animals used for scientific purposes,
making it a legal requirement to comply with the 3R principle (replacement, reduction, refinement).

As is set out in recital 28 of that Directive, the welfare of the animals used in procedures is highly dependent on the
quality and professional competence of the personnel supervising procedures, as well as of those performing procedures
or supervising those taking care of the animals on a daily basis. It is therefore imperative that, as regards animal welfare
issues, the personnel responsible for those tasks in Member States should be properly informed, trained and proficient
and that they should have access to all relevant information, tools and know-how needed to be able to make use of
alternatives to animal testing.

One of the main obstacles to developing and using alternatives is the lack of linkage and of information pooling
between scientific domains, thus preventing existing methods from being taken forward and used by animal testers.

The purpose of the project is to promote the use of alternatives to animal testing in the Union. Additional resources
need to be marshalled and better coordinated in order to foster greater use of alternatives, with a view initially to
reducing the number of animals used and, ultimately, to ending the practice altogether.

In expanding the remit and resources of existing bodies (e.g. ECVAM), the pilot project seeks to improve information
and knowledge exchange between the scientific community, Union agencies, national authorities and users of animal
testing in Member States, reflecting the policy approach taken by the Union in introducing Directive 2010/63/EU.

It aims actively to promote existing alternatives to animal testing, facilitate validation of new alternative methods,
organise information campaigns, foster exchanges of information, knowledge and best practices between scientists and
authorities in Member States on existing methods, on how to use them and on what is needed to develop new methods
or improve existing ones.

In expanding the remit and resources of the Education and Training Platform for Laboratory Animal Science (ETPLAS),
the pilot project also seeks to offer specific training courses, including on-line courses, not only for scientists, depending
on their area of work (e.g. basic research or toxicology), doctors and veterinarians, but also for industry stakeholders.

The pilot project should also provide a forum for discussion and proposals, with a view to encouraging and optimising
scientific research in order to develop alternatives, establish linkage between the Union regulatory set-up and national
set-ups, and move towards making alternative methods in the Union more effective.

It should have a pivotal role to play in implementing current legislation and in realising the objective, shared by the
Commission, of ultimately replacing animal testing by alternative methods.

_Remarks_

This pilot project will create a representative butterfly (Lepidoptera) monitoring network across the Union and a suite of
Lepidoptera indicators, thus helping to improve the targeting and efficiency of conservation measures under Council
[Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and f lora (OJ L 206,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=1992&mm=07&jj=22&type=L&nnn=206&pppp=0007&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
[22.7.1992, p. 7) (the Habitats Directive), and also monitor the biodiversity impact of the greening of the Common](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=1992&mm=07&jj=22&type=L&nnn=206&pppp=0007&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
Agricultural Policy (CAP), ensuring payments to farmers for maintaining Natura 2000 areas in good condition, climate
change and European sectoral and land use policies in general.

_Rationale_

(1) The pilot project will develop a suite of Union Lepidoptera indicators which can help improve conservation
measures and assess progress in implementing Union policies and legislation such as the Union Biodiversity
Strategy to 2020 and the Habitats Directive. Besides providing a highly relevant indicator for measuring progress in
terms of managing and restoring Natura 2000 sites, it will also contribute to monitoring progress on Target 3 of
the Union Biodiversity Strategy, which aims to increase the contribution of agriculture and forestry to maintaining
and enhancing biodiversity. In particular, the pilot project will deliver a representative indicator to help monitor the
impact of the CAP on grassland biodiversity. It will also provide data to produce a climate change indicator, thereby
contributing to the ongoing revision of climate change adaptation strategies. Indicators will also be possible for
woodland, wetland and urban habitats.

(2) Such indicators are needed for tracking and stimulating progress towards the Union and global headline
biodiversity target for 2020 and the Sustainable Development Goals. The project is highly policy-relevant and can
provide several benefits at Union level, such as linking science and policy and strengthening the evidence and
knowledge base for Union policy-making; linking the efforts of citizens and volunteers with policy makers in
Member States where this has not been a tradition; increasing professional opportunities for young people across
Europe and increasing their skills; and linking knowledge across the environment and agriculture sectors, and
involving climate change researchers and policy makers.

(3) It can help to raise the profile of biodiversity and the importance of agricultural policy and practice to biodiversity
recovery and contribute to the ongoing discussion on innovative agro-ecology approaches, paving the way for
sustainable innovation in agriculture and measuring the effectiveness of payments for greening and sustainability
improvement. Currently, agricultural Natura 2000 areas have the lowest conservation status; this project can
further assist with improving the implementation of the Habitats Directive and stimulating further actions to
improve the conservation status of Natura 2000 Lepidoptera and the habitats on which they depend, specifically by
enabling better targeting of CAP pillar 2 funds and ensuring that Natura 2000 payments are effective and sufficient
so that farmers are better incentivised to protect the areas and the species they support. It will complement the
existing farmland birds indicators as it will be more sensitive in describing what high habitat quality means and the
condition of ecosystems. Moreover, it replaces an ad hoc approach to Lepidoptera monitoring and indicator
reporting with a sustainable system that covers more Member States, has more records and is more representative,
in order for it to be more widely accepted.

(4) This coherent project will enable the development of a system for collecting and recording validated Lepidoptera
data at European level so as to allow cost-effective and regular updating of a grassland butterf ly indicator and other
indicators. This will be a significant improvement on the current approach. It involves the development and
construction of a well-designed database with processes for collating systematic records of Lepidoptera numbers
along a fixed route or transect (a methodology already agreed with European Environment Agency (EEA)) from
more countries and a process for regularly compiling and updating a suite of Lepidoptera indicators.

(5) The project will enable new monitoring schemes to be set up in some Member States where there is none at
present and contribute to building capacity. This will involve, inter alia, finding citizen volunteers, training them,
giving them some support and enabling them to report their findings cost-effectively. Validation and quality control
can be effectively achieved in those Member States with modest support for knowledgeable part-time coordinators.
This will increase opportunities and skills for young people.

(6) As a result of this project we will have a greatly improved Union network for monitoring lepidopterans, more
transects walked each year, more Member States and more citizens involved in monitoring, and a suite of
Lepidoptera indicators and a comprehensive database that can provide a valuable resource for researchers, policy
makers and evaluators. Results will be used to inform policy debates, improve policy implementation and raise the
profile of biodiversity and ecosystem services, including pollination services.

Habitats Directive), Member States are obliged to protect Natura 2000 sites from destruction. However, in practice
thousands of hectares of habitat (forests, grasslands) are lost in Natura 2000 sites every year due to a variety of factors,
such as water abstraction and drainage, conversion of natural grassland into cropland, clear-cutting of forest and
urbanisation, which were identified in the European Environment Agency’s 2015 ‘State of Nature in the EU’ report as
key threats to biodiversity. Although habitat loss is poorly monitored, it probably varies greatly in nature and extent
across the Union. Habitat loss is a very severe environmental problem, as either it is often irreversible or habitats can
sometimes take centuries to recover (for example, old-growth forests).

Satellite technology is rapidly developing. The Union’s Copernicus and other satellites, such as the freely available
LANDSAT, are able to provide high-resolution images of the whole of Europe, with archives spanning several decades.
However, much work is needed before the images can be used, and this is what is urgently needed at the moment.

First the satellite images will need to be processed. In order to understand how much habitat has been lost, and when,
several images of the same area in different years will need to be aligned and further processed. The images will then be
converted into habitat maps, preferably using MAES ecosystem types, and verified using existing maps and other data.
The significant areas of habitat lost in Natura 2000 sites will then be analysed and estimates of habitat loss per
ecosystem type over time will be compiled.

The maps will then be presented on an online platform accompanied by identified cases of past habitat loss, illustrating
the drivers behind it. Citizens and civil society organisations are very active in scrutinising the operation of the Natura
2000 network, as is evident in the many complaints that the Commission receives every year about threats to Natura
2000 sites. By providing an online platform where habitat loss can be tracked, the project will empower them and
encourage their involvement in the application of Union policy. The platform should be user friendly, with downloadable data, as this will enable citizens and scientists to use the project results to the fullest.

Ultimately, the project will contribute to land use in Natura 2000 areas that is compatible with conserving biodiversity,
and contribute to resolving conf licts over land use. As such, the project will contribute to achieving the Sustainable
Development Goals, in particular SDG 15 on sustainable forest management, halting and reversing land degradation
and halting biodiversity loss.

_Remarks_

γ-HCH, commonly known as Lindane, was widely used from the early 1940s as an insecticide in agriculture, in
households and in wood and textile protection.

Its agricultural use began to be restricted in the 1970s due to concerns over its effects on human health and the
environment and it was finally banned in the Union in 2000. Finally in 2009, the production and agricultural use of
Lindane was also banned internationally under the Stockholm Convention on persistent organic pollutants. Lindane can
harm the nervous system, producing a range of symptoms from headache and dizziness to seizures, convulsions and,
more rarely, death. Based primarily on evidence from animal studies, most evaluations of Lindane have concluded that it

may cause cancer.

Although Lindane has been banned as a crop pesticide since 2000, old production and dumping sites for this highly
toxic pesticide still exist throughout the Union (e.g. in Slovenia, Germany, Romania and Spain), and while there is
extensive knowledge about other persistent organic pollutants (POPs) there is no clear picture of the scale of Lindanecontaminated sites in the Union, and the volume of HCH which can enter the waste/water regime via contaminated
construction and demolition waste from historical production and storage sites is unknown.

Although the Union has a comprehensive legal framework as regards production of POPs and a fairly well developed
system for authorising or reauthorising the introduction of new pesticides, there are no rules or remedies in connection
with existing Lindane sites, decontamination techniques and the regeneration of industrial sites. There is also a variety of
techniques, ranging from incineration and chemical reaction to the use of genetically modified plants and sealed
confinement, etc.

National, regional and local authorities sometimes are given no assistance with addressing negative effects on the
environment and health as regards decontaminating industrial production sites, including a lack of Union funding
possibilities. In order to deal with this and taking into account the new Union opportunities under the circular
economy proposals, this pilot project has the following objectives:

(1) identifying and mapping Lindane waste sites in the Union and cataloguing the actions taken by the various
administrations to decontaminate Lindane waste sites and to assess the effectiveness of the actions carried out and
the public investments made. This project will identify the strengths and weaknesses of POP and other pesticide
decontamination as part of the endocrine disruptors debate;

(2) facilitating the exchange of knowledge, best practices and technological transfer involved in HCH and Lindane
decontamination actions throughout the Union so that this knowledge can be transferred to other regions with
similar problems. This project will also disseminate the results of specific actions financed under previous LIFE and
Horizon 2020 projects;

(3) identifying possible additional Union funding for decontamination of sites in the Union and best practices in
connection with projects to regenerate former industrial sites, in particular specific projects to be financed under
the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) in close cooperation with the EFSI hub;

(4) identifying research needs for developing further additional methods for more efficient and safe HCH and Lindane
waste decontamination;

(5) drawing up guidelines on a sustainable and environmentally-friendly approach to site redevelopment for regional/
national/local administrations.

_Remarks_

Building on the successful 2015 pilot project (operational in 2016-17) entitled ‘Capacity building, programmatic
development, and communication in the field of environmental taxation and budgetary reform’ and the five thematic
areas defined within that project (biodiversity and land use; air pollution; water stress; water quality; and the circular
economy) to develop best practices in the field of environmental taxes, this preparatory action will provide the
necessary tools for organisations to become better prepared to participate in policy-making processes at both national
and Union level.

It will have four pillars:

(1) developing capacity-building toolkits for civil society actors and decision-makers at local, regional, national and
European levels to provide guidance for participating in environmental taxation reforms;

(2) mapping out windows of opportunity across the five thematic areas for stakeholder engagement, and developing
roadmaps for potential stakeholder actions relating to environmental reforms until 2030, both at European level
and in a sample of Member States (e.g. three per thematic area);

(3) organising strategic meetings relating to the five thematic areas to refine the roadmaps and promote the
involvement of decision makers and civil society actors in the field of environmental taxation and budgetary
reform;

(4) looking into various types of subsidies where reforms would be important for greening the economy, including
grants, tax exemptions (e.g. corporate taxes) and subsidised loans, together with modelling analysis for issues such
as optimum design and compensation for those who lose out as a result of subsidy reform.

alien species

_Remarks_

On 22 October 2014, the European Parliament and the Council adopted Regulation (EU) No 1143/2014 (the ‘IAS
Regulation’), according to which ‘invasive alien species’ (IAS) means an ‘alien species whose introduction or spread has
been found to threaten or adversely impact upon biodiversity and related ecosystem services’.

IAS are one of the major causes of biodiversity loss. Stricter control of IAS is one of the six main targets of the Union
Biodiversity Strategy adopted by the Commission in May 2011 and applicable until 2020. IAS can also cause significant
harm to human health and the economy. The cost to the European economy is estimated to be at least EUR 12 billion

per year.

The IAS Regulation introduces an EU-wide system to tackle this issue. As provided for by Article 4 of that Regulation,
on 13 July 2016 the Commission adopted a list of IAS of Union concern (the ‘Union List’). This is the list of priority
species which require Union action to prevent, minimise or mitigate their adverse impacts. Member States need to carry
out the following measures with regard to species on the list: (1) prevention, (2) early detection and rapid eradication of
new invasions, and (3) management of invasions that are already widely spread.

The control and management of IAS on the Union List can impact large numbers of animals for sustained periods of
time, thereby raising concerns for animal welfare, ref lecting increasing public concern that invasive alien animals are
sentient beings and, more generally, increasing civil society interest in the humane treatment of animals.

As clearly stated in the IAS Regulation, non-lethal methods can be used for the management of species: ‘Member States
and any operator involved in the eradication, control or containment of invasive alien species should take the necessary
measures to spare avoidable pain, distress and suffering of animals during the process […]. Non-lethal methods should
be considered’.

However, it is up to the Member States to select measures ‘appropriate to the local conditions’. Non-lethal and humane
methods are rarely used because they are poorly developed and are not well known in Europe.

_Remarks_

This pilot project will establish an urban air quality sensor network (PM, NO 2, CO, BC) and implement enhanced quality
assessment and control (QA/QC) strategies to collect reliable output data from that network. The network will consist
of both fixed and portable sensors.

A sensor network will improve the availability of data on local air quality and on human exposure to pollutants because
of the higher spatial and temporal resolution than traditional measurement systems (monitoring stations). However,
because of the lower accuracy of air quality sensors advanced QA/QC strategies need to be implemented.

This research project will develop and implement on-line calibration procedures for individual air quality sensors. The
unique hybrid approach of combining high-resolution modelling with high-resolution monitoring will also be demonstrated to improve the QA/QC procedures and eventually make the network output data more reliable. Furthermore,
network optimisation procedures will be developed and implemented to guarantee maximum network performance.

Selected sensors will be tested and calibration algorithms will be set. Sensor performance before deployment (e.g.
development of sensor calibration models), as well as methods that are applied to follow up sensor performance
through the deployment phase, will be demonstrated. In addition, network and power supply issues will be tackled too.

The project will also include combining or assimilating the Internet of Things (IoT) sensor network and air quality
modelling applications. The model chain can provide the air quality sensor network with an independent source of
information to identify faulty sensor nodes or aid in providing a calibration framework. In addition, the abundance of
data from a sensor network will reveal shortcomings in the modelling and result in better exposure assessment.

_Remarks_

These budgetary remarks are applicable to all the budget lines in this chapter.

This appropriation will be used for Horizon 2020 — the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, which
covers the 2014-2020 period and brings together all existing Union research and innovation funding, including the
framework programme for research, the innovation related activities of the competitiveness and innovation framework
programme and the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT). The programme shall play a central role in
the implementation of the Europe 2020 f lagship initiative ‘Innovation Union’ and other f lagship initiatives, notably ‘A
digital agenda for Europe’ ‘Resource-efficient Europe’ and ‘An industrial policy for the globalisation era’, as well as in the
development and functioning of the European Research Area (ERA). Horizon 2020 shall contribute to building an
economy based on knowledge and innovation across the whole Union by leveraging sufficient additional research,
development and innovation funding. This appropriation will be used also for the completion of the previous research
programmes (Seventh Framework Programme and preceding framework programmes).

This appropriation will be used in accordance with the Regulation (EU) No 1290/2013 of the European Parliament and

Lifelong health and well-being for all, high-quality and economically sustainable health and care systems, with health
care becoming more personalised for more efficacy, and opportunities for new jobs and growth in the health sector and
its related industries are the aims of this activity. To that respect activities will focus on effective health promotion and
disease prevention (e.g. understanding the determinants of health, developing better preventive vaccines). Particular
attention will be paid to gender- and age-related health specificities. In addition, emphasis will be placed on managing,
treating and curing disease (notably via an increased personalisation of medicine), disability and reduced functionality
(e.g. by transferring knowledge to clinical practice and scalable innovation actions, better use of health data,
independent and assisted living). Furthermore, efforts will be made to improve decision-making in prevention and
treatment provision, identify and support the dissemination of best practice in the health care sector, and support
integrated care and the uptake of technological, organisational and social innovations empowering in particular older
persons as well as disabled persons to remain active and independent. Finally, activities will be based on a gendersensitive approach that recognises, amongst other things, the position of women in both the informal and the formal

care sector.

The aim of this activity is to contribute to making European societies more inclusive, innovative and reflective, by
promoting smart, sustainable and inclusive growth. Actions will support coordinated policymaking through the
development of evidence, tools, forward-looking activities and pilots to increase transnational efficiency and economic
impact of research and innovation policies and achieve a well-functioning European Research Area and Innovation
Union. Actions will also aim at closing the innovation divide, ensuring societal engagement in research and innovation
and fostering gender balance in research teams, promoting coherent and effective cooperation with third countries and
developing an understanding of Europe’s intellectual basis: its history and the many European and non-European
inf luences, as an inspiration for our lives today.

_Remarks_

The aim of those activities is to fully exploit the potential of Europe’s talent pool and to ensure that the benefits of an
innovation-led economy are both maximised and widely distributed across the Union in accordance with the principle
of excellence. By nurturing and connecting pools of excellence, the activities proposed will contribute to strengthening
the European Research Area.

The activities will focus on teaming of excellent research institutions and low-performing RDI regions aiming at the
creation of new (or significant upgrade of existing) centres of excellence in low performing RDI Member States and
regions, twinning of research institutions, establishing ‘ERA Chairs’, a Policy Support Facility to improve the design,
implementation, and evaluation of national/regional research and innovation policies, supporting access to international
networks for excellent researchers and innovators who lack sufficient involvement in European and international
networks and strengthening the administrative and operational capacity of transnational networks of national contact
points, including through training.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

An important question that has emerged in recent years concerns clitoral reconstruction after female genital mutilation
(FGM). Clitoral reconstruction is a relatively new surgical technique and in spite of the interest in the surgery, evidence is
lacking as to its safety and effectiveness. Short- and long-term complications rates and long-term outcomes, including
sexual function, body self-image and gender, social and aesthetic identity have been repeatedly indicated as future
research gaps. More specifically, it is unclear which women could benefit from this surgical intervention and who might
be better off with alternative care such as psycho-sexual therapy.

The project will answer the question below. Firstly, the existing (non-official) guidelines, protocols and good practices in
the Union will be individualised and analysed. Secondly, complications rate, postoperative sexual desire, sexual function,
vulvar pain, body self-image and gender identity will be studied through the use of a validated and standardised tool in
women who have undergone the surgery, or will in the course of the project, and women who have not. Finally,
recommendations for best practices for a care pathway will be developed for clitoral reconstruction in the Union.

Fusion research, which includes activities that range from basic research to technology development, construction of
major projects and training and education activities. It offers the prospect of an almost limitless supply of clean energy,
with ITER being the crucial next step in the progress towards this ultimate goal. The realisation of the ITER project
therefore lies at the heart of the present Union strategy. It must be accompanied by a strong and focused European
research and development programme on fusion to prepare for the exploitation of ITER and to develop the
technologies and knowledge base that will be needed during ITER operation and beyond.

Fission research, which aims to establish a sound scientific and technical basis in order to accelerate practical
developments for the safer management of long-lived radioactive waste, to promote safer, more resource-efficient and
cost-effective nuclear energy and to ensure a robust and socially acceptable system of protection of man and the
environment against the effects of radiation.

_Remarks_

The Research Fund for Coal and Steel funds every year innovative projects to enhance the safety, efficiency and
competitive edge of the Union coal and steel industries. It was created in 2002 to build on the successes of the
European Coal and Steel Community. The distribution of the budgets between coal (27,2 %) and steel (72,8 %) is
defined in 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).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2003&mm=02&jj=05&type=L&nnn=029&pppp=0022&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the Agency’s staff and administrative expenditure (Titles 1 and 2) and
operational expenditure relating to the work programme only (Title 3).

The Agency was set up to enhance the capability of the Union, the Member States and, as a consequence, the business
community to prevent, address and respond to network and information security problems. In order to achieve this
goal, the Agency will be developing a high level of expertise and stimulating broad cooperation between actors from the
public and private sectors.

The Agency’s aim is to provide assistance and to deliver advice to the Commission and the Member States on issues
related to network and information security falling within its competencies and to assist the Commission, where called
upon, in the technical preparatory work for updating and developing Union legislation in the field of network and
information security.

The Agency must inform the European Parliament and the Council about transfers of appropriations between
operational and administrative expenditure.

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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

The amounts repaid in accordance with Article 23 of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1271/2013 constitute
assigned revenue (point (c) of Article 21(3) of the Financial Regulation) to be charged to Item 6 6 0 0 of the general
statement of revenue.

Pursuant to Article 208 of the Financial Regulation and the corresponding Articles of the framework Financial
Regulation for each of the bodies set up by the Union, the role of the European Parliament and the Council has been
strengthened.

The establishment plan of the Agency is set out in the Annex ‘Staff’ to this section.

The Union contribution for 2018 amounts to a total of EUR 10 529 000. An amount of EUR 38 436 coming from the
recovery of surplus is added to the amount of EUR 10 490 564 entered in the budget.

Suggested activities:

— conduct a survey to provide an in-depth examination of the state and models of media self-regulation in the digital
environment, to bring clarity on how to achieve, in a converged media environment, the traditional goals of media
regulation (i.e. a pluralistic and diverse media landscape in which the media benefit from independence from
political, commercial and other inf luences and are accountable to the public),

— compile the first online database on the current functioning of media self-regulatory bodies and promote the work
of press councils in Europe,

— develop a pan-Union working group on the digital challenges to applying the recommendations of the survey,

— provide direct support to newly established press councils in Europe,

— include press/media councils in a global dialogue on media ethics in the digital age (participation at global internet
conferences etc.),

— organise regular meetings with internet intermediaries with the objective of achieving online recognition of media
content already under the supervision of a press council.

_Remarks_

Media innovations are called for by political and economic developments.

Democracy requires quality news and the media need innovations. As platforms dominate, the risk increases of a ‘posttruth’ era where ‘fake news’ and populism f lourish. The recent white paper on ‘The Future of Europe’ states: ‘We want to
live in a democracy with a diversity of views and a critical, independent and free press’.

The number of journalists and news outlets is shrinking (apart from broadcasting, which is largely publicly funded).
Subsidising endangered models is not the solution. Innovation requires cross-border cooperation, mobility and faster
careers for ‘fresh blood’. An ‘Erasmus for media professionals’ — financing cross-border exchanges between media
professionals under whatever project name — should be piloted.

This pilot project fits policy trends and is widely called for by the media. It focuses not only on mobility of media
professionals, content exchanges and journalism quality, but also on media innovation and sustainable business models.
Moreover, it includes a ‘reciprocal exchange’ for journalists and other media professionals, with all participating media
both hosting and sending candidates. This will ensure the quality of training and maximise the ‘return on investment’
for the sending media. The pilot project will be organised in thematic waves. It will involve not only journalists, but also
communication, marketing and IT professionals. A steering committee will be set up and involve media stakeholders.

Several policy trends lead to this media skills pilot project. First, consideration is being given to making skills
programmes more sector-specific under the post 2020 Multiannual Financial Framework, complementing education
programmes such as Erasmus+ and Erasmus Pro without affecting their budgets. Secondly, the digital single market is
currently only a horizontal concept; its pending review could lead to ‘vertical’ media sector initiatives. Thirdly, the media
sector is seen by the Union chief ly as a communication channel or an area for press freedom issues, and not as an
economic sector in crisis. The Union’s R&D programmes are mostly unrelated to this sector. This pilot project will test a
concept suited to a strategic industry in crisis, with low risks and high impact. Finally, the project will build on the
results of the earlier Commission feasibility study on ‘Erasmus for Journalists’ (2011).

Interviews with 30 editors and publishers in the #Media4EU series provided the basis for this project. All this translates
into strong support in media and political circles (project findings and support list to be available). Fifty media
organisations, experts and associations already back this project, as do a number of MEPs from several groups. (A fuller
list of those providing moral support, including 14 MEPs, is available online under ‘Yes, rising stars for media
innovation’ (Eramus4media, provisional name).)

To ensure innovation, the principles of independence and effectiveness should be respected.

Several elements have been taken into account — previous attempts based chief ly on exchanging content, training
journalists and good external inspirations — focusing on sustainable media innovations, and not just on coverage of
European topics. Indeed, there are several ways of furthering media coverage at European level, but typically they are
not sustainable after the Union support ends.

Media professionals are most mobile, innovative and credible when they have between five and 10 years of professional
experience. Hence, the core target group will be around 25 to 30 years old, but there will be exceptions.

The thematic waves will be set up in cooperation with relevant media associations in order to match like-minded media
and quality ideas. Topics for calls for proposals (not exhaustive) could be broken down by sub-sector (business media,
centre-right, centre-left, green, community radio, etc.), by innovation area (data journalism, light video, mobile, etc.) or
by editorial angle (investigation, European elections, migration, development, etc.). Participants from selected pairs will
swap locations for one to three months, as well as taking part in initial training and debriefing/follow-up sessions,
ensuring cooperation for nearly a year within each ‘thematic wave’.

The project will be very cost-effective and have a major impact. Project promotion and preselection of candidates will
take into account not only individual profiles but also the project ideas they wish to explore (ensuring a good return on
investment, in terms of time and pay, for their employers).

Depending on the budget available, up to several hundred ‘rising stars’ and media organisations could be linked up. The
project will not pay participants’ salaries, only travel and training expenses (in addition to promotion, selection and
administration). Therefore the cost per participant will be reasonable; there will be real results and a good budget
multiplier effect. Experience suggests that many more applications will be received than there are places available.
Selection will therefore be strict, providing a boost to participants’ careers and a good ‘brand’.

A process is suggested for media independence, impact for participants and effectiveness. To ensure editorial reach and
business innovation, this pilot project originates with media professionals, who should make up most of the project
steering committee.

To also ensure a focus on young professionals (not students) and on sector-specific skills, the right Commission
department should be involved. The project could be administered either by DG GROW (a ‘sectoral leg’ of its ‘Erasmus
for Young Entrepreneurs’ programme), or by DG CONNECT (a new media directorate complementing its R&Doriginated actions with innovation-enabling skills). Different procedures exist, from open calls to restricted selection,
in order to ensure prompt select of a good ‘managing organisation’.

_Remarks_

New technologies are dramatically and constantly changing the dynamics of opinion-making and the media landscape.
While they allow easy distribution of information of public interest to wider audiences, fostering pluralism, the way in
which information is created, searched for and distributed online may accentuate polarisation, exposing individuals to
news, sources and ideas that match their stated preferences. This can significantly reduce the scope for encountering and
debating opposing viewpoints and, as such, may pose a risk to media pluralism and democracy itself. As the impact of
online information is growing, citizens are increasingly forming their opinions though information distributed online.
This poses severe risks to effective pluralism when that information is false or is ‘misinformation’ or ‘disinformation’.
While some policy responses to proliferation of misinformation call on online intermediaries and social media
platforms to adopt self-regulatory measures to limit the circulation of false and fake information, it is evident that
entrusting those private companies with filtering information online may lead to a limiting of freedom of expression
too.

This preparatory action will support the development of a study on a set of indicators to measure the risks to media
pluralism in the online environment. The Union has already invested resources in devising a media pluralism monitor
that can assess risks to media pluralism and freedom. This comprehensive tool has proved effective and useful for
assessing risks to media pluralism at country level. It is of the utmost importance that the methodology of that tool
should be reusable for a new monitor that fully takes into account the online dimension of pluralism. The preparatory
action will map the threats to information pluralism online, create a tool to assess the risks to pluralism online and test
it in the 28 Member States.

_Remarks_

These remarks are applicable to all the budget lines in this chapter.

This appropriation will be used for Horizon 2020 — the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, which
covers the 2014-2020 period, and for the completion of the previous research programmes (Seventh Framework
Programme and preceding framework programmes) and previous information and communication technologies
programmes (ICT PSP (2007-2013) and programmes prior to 2007).

Horizon 2020 shall play a central role in the implementation of the Europe 2020 f lagship initiative ‘Innovation Union’
and other f lagship initiatives, notably ‘Resource-efficient Europe’, ‘An industrial policy for the globalisation era’, and
‘Digital Agenda for Europe’, as well as in the development and functioning of the European Research Area. Horizon
2020 shall contribute to building an economy based on knowledge and innovation across the whole Union by

_TITLE 09 — COMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS, CONTENT AND TECHNOLOGY_

**CHAPTER 09 04 — HORIZON 2020** _(cont'd)_

It will be carried out in order to pursue the general objectives set out in Article 179 of the Treaty on the Functioning of
the European Union, in order to contribute to the creation of a society of knowledge, based on the European Research
Area, i.e. supporting transnational cooperation at all levels throughout the Union, taking the dynamism, creativity and
the excellence of European research to the limits of knowledge, strengthening human resources for research and for
technology in Europe, quantitatively and qualitatively, and research and innovation capacities in the whole of the Union
and ensuring optimum use thereof.

In Horizon 2020, gender equality is addressed as a cross-cutting issue in order to rectify imbalances between women
and men and to integrate a gender dimension in research and innovation content. Particular account will be taken of the
need to step up efforts to enhance the participation at all levels, including decision making, of women in research and
innovation.

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.

This appropriation will be used in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1290/2013 of the European Parliament and of
the Council of 11 December 2013 laying down the rules for the participation and dissemination in ‘Horizon 2020 —
the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (2014-2020)’ and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1906/2006
[(OJ L 347, 20.12.2013, p. 81).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2013&mm=12&jj=20&type=L&nnn=347&pppp=0081&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

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 chapter. 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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

Administrative appropriations of this chapter will be provided under Article 09 01 05.

_**09 04 01**_ _**Excellent science**_

_Remarks_

This priority of Horizon 2020 aims to reinforce and extend excellence in the Union’s science base and ensure a steady
stream of world-class research to secure the Union’s long-term competitiveness. It will support the best ideas, develop
talent within the Union, provide researchers with access to priority research infrastructure, and make the Union an
attractive location for the world’s best researchers. Research actions to be funded will be determined according to the
need and opportunities of science, without predetermined thematic priorities. The research agenda will be set in close
liaison with the scientific community and research will be funded on the basis of excellence.

_Remarks_

_Former Item 09 04 03 02 (in part)_

The specific objective is to foster inclusive, innovative and ref lective European societies in a context of unprecedented
transformations and growing global interdependencies.

Activities will cover four main areas: ICT-enabled public sector innovation, understanding and preserving Europe’s
intellectual basis and cultural heritage, learning and inclusion.

ICT-enabled public sector innovation refers to the use of ICT for the creation and implementation of new processes,
products, services and methods of delivery which result in significant improvements in the efficiency, effectiveness and
quality of public services. The future public administrations should be digital and cross-border by default. Activities will
cover fostering efficient, open and citizen-centric public services, involving the public sector as an agent for innovation
and change as well as cross-border innovation measures or seamless delivery of public services.

The aim of the second challenge is ‘to contribute to an understanding of Europe’s intellectual basis and cultural heritage:
its history and the many European and non-European inf luences; as an inspiration for our lives today’, as well as to
facilitate the access and exploitation of this cultural heritage.

The aim of the third challenge is to support the widespread adoption of ICT in schools and for training in Europe.

The fourth challenge is to get the elderly (aged 65 and above), the unemployed and low-educated persons, migrants,
people in need of care, people living in remote or poorer areas, persons with disabilities, and the homeless people to
fully participate in society. Activities will focus on empowering them with the necessary digital skills and providing
them with access to digital technologies. Activities aiming at fostering a better consideration for inclusiveness and
responsibility aspects in ICT-related innovations will also be supported.

Activities will cover collaboration, networking actions and national programme coordination initiatives. Also entered in
this item are the costs of independent experts assisting in 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 programme 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.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

Higher education and research are rapidly evolving. Creating new knowledge technologies requires training for teachers,
students and researchers alike, as well as any individual who needs to adapt to new market demands. Many endeavours,
such as citizen science, scientific discovery games and MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), show that — like many
other sectors — education and research are rapidly evolving. In order to fully exploit the potential of this new type of
learning system for the labour market, methods are needed to validate the quality of their learning. Consequently, a
mechanism has to be found that allows individuals to assess their competencies (creating their individual knowledge
map), the knowledge required on the labour market and the learning path that can link the two, hence providing the
right content for each individual. Only by doing so can it be ensured that the right content is available to the right target
group of individuals. In order to be able to track the learning path, there must be validation of the knowledge acquired,
which is possible through online certificates or badges.

This type of social and technological innovation can benefit all citizens regardless of their level of resources, the
languages they speak, their age, their health or their cultural capital. Such an action will thus help bridge the knowledge
gap and reduce unemployment by helping young unemployed people in particular to maximise their learning and find
new career opportunities.

The overall objective of this preparatory action is to demonstrate a Europe-wide ICT-based system shortening the upand re-skilling time for European citizens, in particular the unemployed, by maximising the use of online courses and
open education resources. The action will develop and deploy a technological platform integrating online services,
including inter alia the following modules:

(1) skill/competence mapping;

(2) tailored learning roadmaps (via educational services, including specific open educational resources);

(3) mechanisms for the validation of knowledge acquired.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

REIsearch seeks to accelerate full use of Europe’s intellectual capital to the benefit of citizens, entrepreneurs and
scientists through new media tools. Growing from a successful pilot project, this preparatory action will expand the
work of the platform.

The preparatory action involves expansion of an e-infrastructure platform developed around the concept of social
networks which facilitates direct communication between researchers, policymakers and citizens, with the involvement
of media, across the European Research Area (ERA).

Inspired by the ‘societal challenges’ outlined in Horizon 2020, REIsearch supports the creation of virtual clusters around
key topics, creating a direct path for open dialogue between science and society.

The action promotes active interaction between science, citizens and policymakers through the involvement of
European media and social networks, in order to support participation of citizens in research agenda-setting, ongoing
research processes and discussions on the results and impacts of research for society, policy and further research. It
supports the use of evidence-based policymaking in all Union actions, in line with the drive for better regulation.
REIsearch supports science-based policymaking by affording access to scientific information across the spectrum and
providing a critical mass of knowledge to inspire confidence in any users of the platform. It is a neutral platform with
no bias as to national origin or disciplinary background. Discussions are linked to the scientific evidence they are based

on.

Building on the successful 14-month pilot project, REIsearch will expand and grow to cover the full range of societal
challenges, enabling users to engage with the issues of their choice and self-determine the clusters and direction of
discussions. Alongside the platform itself, REIsearch will integrate a range of tools such as big data/social media datamining, applications of new artificial intelligence and semantic web applications to extract information about the trends
and f lows of the scientific consensus and discussions.

The objectives of the preparatory action are:

— to expand and fortify the reliable, non-profit e-infrastructure (similar to social networks) launched as a beta in 2015
to promote stronger communication and dialogue across disciplines, sectors and borders,

— to analyse and assess the results of the beta launch and develop the search algorithms and data-mining mechanisms
underpinning the trend-mapping capabilities,

— to further promote interoperability with existing research databases and platforms, with a single access point to
research results from all countries and disciplines (interoperability) and with linkage to existing European initiatives,

— to expand the number of virtual clusters to include all the ‘societal challenges’ that bring together researchers,
industry, citizens and policymakers to enhance collaboration on these key themes,

— to create a direct dialogue between those virtual clusters and citizens by linking in with leading European media.

The preparatory action seeks to respond to some of the needs and concerns outlined in the Digital Agenda and Horizon
2020. It also supports the underlying infrastructures of the European Research Area, which serves as a vital engine in
unlocking Europe’s potential for innovations that could lead to jobs and economic growth.

Current issues addressed by the action: recent ICT developments have shown how the power of social networks and einfrastructures can help harness the potential of networks.

The problems of the existing online environment for research e-infrastructures are:

— size: the majority of existing networks are too small to go beyond a specific field and research group (according to
Commission statistics the average size of an online network of researchers is around 100 users). There is a need for
a large interoperable network that allows researchers and other stakeholders to find the information they are
looking for across sectors and disciplines, using a familiar tool,

— reach: traditionally, networks bring together users within the same field and sector. In order to unlock Europe’s
innovation capacity, transdisciplinary (intersectoral and interdisciplinary) connections need to be made easier,

— reliability: one of the major reasons why big research networks have not been successful is that existing relations are
still based on personal connections and online identities are not trusted. In order to really foster transdisciplinary
connections, a system is needed in which identity verification creates a secure environment for all users,

— trust: this is a pivotal aspect for any network. Market studies suggest that a European social network/e-infrastructure
would need to be developed in collaboration with stakeholders, be non-profit and have a clear intellectual property
policy developed together with researchers.

The preparatory action will seek to ensure a coherent, coordinated and sustainable approach, to secure, develop and
enhance engagement of all relevant stakeholders from Eastern Europe (business, academia, research organisations and
civil society) and to inform, prepare and help regional entities from this part of Europe as regards developing projects
under the Commission’s smart factories scheme. The action will cover those regions in Eastern Europe hard hit by
deindustrialisation where no smart factories have been planned or brought into operation and those whose industrial
capacity needs to be improved.

The preparatory action will also seek to identify, assess and support exploitation of the industrial potential in a selected
region, and to explore its innovation potential and the scope for its expansion. It will clearly target identification of
industrial competitive advantages and the potential for specialisation at regional level based on an entrepreneurship
discovery process, establishing a governance structure and framework for continuous collaboration between businesses
and researchers, and support for preparation of the relevant policy documents.

Cybercrime is a growing industry. In today’s extremely interconnected world, child sexual abuse material (CSAM) sadly
transcends national boundaries to an extent never seen before. It is arguably one of the most heinous forms of
cybercrime. In recent years the challenges of this horrific crime have grown as technology has become more advanced
and the perpetrators and criminal facilitators and producers of CSAM have become more elusive. In addition, on a daily
basis, hotline content analysts from the INHOPE network come across more graphic and violent content, with everyounger victims, including pre-speech children, as the demand for new material grows.

09 04 77 10 _(cont'd)_

INHOPE member hotlines offer public service value so that digital citizens can take action, by anonymously reporting
suspected CSAM if they come across it when they are online. With dedicated police units overstretched globally,
national hotlines are essential partners for the police in ensuring that they only receive images that are confirmed CSAM
(according to the legislation in the hosting country). INHOPE hotlines have proven instrumental in the process of
‘Notice-and-Takedown’ across all Member States and beyond since 1999, growing the INHOPE network membership
every year, while additionally serving the victim identification imperative.

Because every child has a right to a childhood free from violence and abuse and to be protected from harm, this pilot
project will conduct qualitative research to identify the challenges faced by hotlines tackling child sexual abuse in
Member States. This research will help create a framework of best practices that can support the development and
improvement of hotlines across the Union. What may work in one Member State will not necessarily work in another:
Research is therefore required to help navigate the challenges that Member States may face and determine how to work
with various stakeholders such as law enforcement, ministries and industry. By means of qualitative research the most
important challenges faced by national hotlines tackling child sexual abuse in Member States will be identified. The
research will take the form of interviews, case studies, surveys etc. with the intention of identifying the challenges and
obstacles faced by hotlines.

Given its unique position and expertise in the field, this framework could be developed by INHOPE, the global network
of Internet hotlines covering all Member States.

The pilot project will address the potential impacts and the need for transparency in algorithms for the benefit of

— assessing the spectrum of potential positive and negative impacts of algorithms and reflecting on the technical and
non-technical aspects leading to discriminatory practices. The assessment could highlight likely opportunities
unlocked by algorithms and look at how algorithms impact and create opportunities for innovation, SMEs,
privacy, free speech and the free f low of information, and how algorithmic transparency can be balanced with, for
example, protecting commercial trade secrets,

— considering, on the basis of the results of the assessment and involving appropriate stakeholders, an appropriate and
proportionate policy response addressing the need for transparency, trust and awareness-raising, but also the
institutional and capability implications for potential government oversight. This could include monitoring and
conducting sporadic tests on algorithms to ensure that algorithms respect ethical and competitive best practices and
compiling basic information that is intelligible for customers and citizens. This would provide users with a better
understanding of basic types of algorithmic criteria and enable them to make informed choices,

— getting the governance of algorithmic decision-making right, which is a challenge for policymakers and all actors
involved. Governments need to ramp up their understanding and use of relevant tools to tackle effectively the
challenges raised by algorithmic decision-making. There is a need to further the cooperation and collaboration of
governments across Europe and build a f lexible approach tailored to a global digital world. This should be based on
a better understanding of what policy choices can be made in response to the variety of issues emerging, from
technical challenges to ethical and legal considerations. The complexity of these issues should be reflected in the
guiding policy objectives, from safeguarding fundamental rights to stimulating an innovative environment in
Europe.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

Supporting dynamic, growth-oriented SMEs and start-ups in familiarising themselves with digital technologies so that
they integrate them into their core activities represents a crucial factor in helping companies to develop their business,
enhance their innovative capacity and enter new markets, thus increasing their competitiveness. The vast majority of
SMEs, especially small businesses operating in traditional sectors, face great difficulties in understanding the potential of
new digital technologies — such as data analysis, e-commerce, robotics, microelectronics and mechatronics — and the
benefits deriving from using them in how they operate, in their production processes and in their relations with
customers and clients.

In this context, the main objective of the pilot project is to match growth-oriented SMEs with highly skilled digital
experts in order to make up for the lack of adequate technological competences in companies, equipping them with the
appropriate tools and enabling their digital transformation, as an essential instrument for internationalisation either
within the internal market or in third countries.

Quite often growth-oriented SMEs and start-ups cannot use their own human resources to follow the constant
evolution of new technologies, even on a part-time basis. This is why matching with a digital enabler will allow
companies to discover and apply suitable digital technologies, to explore new opportunities in terms of innovation and
to enhance their capacity to enter new markets, including within the Union. It will also provide an opportunity for
young digital enablers — experts with specific skills coming from incubator centres or universities — to make use of
their technological knowledge inside an established SME.

The project will allow young highly skilled digital experts (not simply IT managers) to work in growth-oriented SMEs
established in another Member State for up to six months according to the digitalisation needs of the companies.

Key elements of the pilot project are:

— support for the matching phase (company selection, job vacancies — also involving the EURES Portal — and
recruitment),

— placement of digital enablers in SMEs (Union grant covering consultancy services offered by them),

Direct outcome: interactive online map hosted by an online platform mapping existing best practices.

_Global overview_

Aspects of the Information Society are present in all spheres of life and have become an integral part of daily activities
at work, at home and when socialising.

The Internet and ICTs are a catalyst for change; they are also a perfect tool that can empower vulnerable people to fully
discover the opportunities offered by the Information Society and fully enjoy their human rights as Union citizens.

ICTs can provide an essential, enabling environment for the empowerment of all, especially people living in vulnerable
circumstances, and help address the demographic changes that are taking place throughout the Union.

Target groups of vulnerable people are:

— people with disabilities and the elderly,

— marginalised young people and children,

— the unemployed persons or people with social problems,

— people defined as marginalised who are affected by current socio-economic or political events (current vulnerabilities).

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will address the need to improve digital skills through education and professional training more
actively and homogeneously throughout Europe. Despite the efforts made at European and national level, such as the
Digital Skills for Jobs Coalition initiatives, there is still a huge digital skills gap to contend with in society. Existing
initiatives are of great benefit in tackling Member States' current challenges. Therefore, the action should not duplicate
those initiatives; rather, it should complement them instead. The Academy will address the lack of a well-developed,
transnational network in Europe that supports and facilitates exchanges between and coordination of all stakeholders in
this area. It could showcase, scale and multiply European best practices in training and in developing the digital skills of
different target groups.

The European Digital Academy should be considered a possible long-term solution to the current challenges resulting
from the combined impact of increasing robotisation and digitisation of the workspace, on the one hand, and, on the
other, the lack of digital skills in society.

The European Digital Academy will have the following remit:

— Making the workforce fit for the new digital era by ensuring that employees can update their e-skills and knowledge
on an ongoing basis. The Digital Academy will offer regular workshops and consulting services on robotics and
automation issues. For information and communication technology (ICT) beginners, the Academy could offer an
opportunity to participate in occupational retraining and to become familiar with the advantages of robotics and
automation technology in order to use them profitably within the workspace.

SMEs in particular could benefit from such an academy because they often do not have the financial and human
resources to provide training internally.

— Making schoolchildren and students fit for the new digital era by bringing robotics and automation technology into
school life. The Academy should offer courses on e-skills which excite, inspire, and motivate young people about the
importance and impact of robotics technologies in daily life. The Academy could provide a great opportunity to
assist in equipping students with the necessary skills for the jobs of tomorrow. However, the courses offered by the
Academy should have no implications for national education systems; rather, they should instead be considered an
optional complement and support.

— Creating a European environment that empowers and encourages girls and young women to consider careers in the
growing ICT field, thereby enabling both girls and technology companies to reap the benefits of greater female
participation in the ICT sector.

The Academy will be established in cooperation with ministries, industry, specialist ICT companies, national institutions
or initiatives with responsibility for professional training and lifelong learning programmes, and social partners. They all
have the necessary expertise to coordinate and devise content and programmes for workshops and courses. In order to
guarantee that this can be offered at European level, the Academy will set up a network of regional and national
professional training centres throughout Europe. The network could provide considerable added value for addressing
the challenge of reducing the various imbalances between skills offered and skills needed in Europe.

European start-up and scale-up ecosystems have clear particularities such as growth models, density, investments,
sectors, education programs, regulations and cross-border collaborations. In this economic sector, various sources
report a large pool of private capital that exists and continues to grow in countries such as the United Kingdom, France,
Germany and Sweden. Consequently, this particular financial interest generated a large volume of data regarding startups and scale-ups located in about 60 European cities.

This pilot project will accelerate the process of knowledge gathering through the StartupHubs project within the Startup
Europe initiative, creating a measurable impact that ultimately serves as a trustworthy tool for evidence-based
policymaking.

_Objectives_

The main objective of this project pilot is to investigate the growth potential of various start-up and scale-up
ecosystems, in a dynamic way, based on socio-economic data gathered through effective and reliable data collecting
and processing methods. All this information will be gathered and made accessible to the public through a user-friendly
online platform that will map and link key connections for numerous parameters that make up the start-up and scaleup ecosystems.

As a result, this initiative should provide a better understanding of what is happening locally in various hubs, for
example assessing strengths and weaknesses, and yearly growth, and measure their overall contribution to generating
socio-economic welfare.

Since the image of European ICT start-up and scale-up scene must be strengthened at global level, this initiative will
target the positioning of such ecosystems, with a view to showcasing their strengths, and ultimately reinforce the
European Digital Single Market strategy, create new jobs in the region and foster growth and collaboration across the
Member States.

These objectives being in line with the Digital Single Market strategy, DG Connect is the most appropriate entity to take
the lead on this pilot project. It will seek collaboration opportunities and share responsibilities, in terms of
policymaking and data analysis, with other DGs.

The Commission will organise a call for proposals, building upon the main lines set out under this pilot project, and
assign project development and implementation to a suitable IT company.

_Description of elements_

The pilot project will implement novel approaches to data visualisation and predictive analytics, ultimately taking the
final form of an interactive platform containing essential information for possible investors or other stakeholders.

Expenditure must relate to the following: data acquisition, data analysis, setting up and maintaining the platform,
providing advice on developing evidence-based policy, information campaigns and other activities relating to interaction
with governments or communities.

_Remarks_

Europe’s capacity to compete in the global market will depend on its capacity to convert scientific and technological
knowledge into innovative products and services; even more, the appeal of Europe will very much depend on how its
regions can conceive an inspiring, motivating and future-oriented environment for its citizens. The transformation of
society by digital technologies is creating opportunities for Europe that a joint effort between the arts and technology
could help fully exploit. In the digital world, Europe can stake a claim to leadership as regards way of life and in those
elements of the digital revolution that most depend on creativity, i.e. broadly speaking, ‘content’.

A committed partnership between arts and technology can make this claim a reality in areas as diverse as social
inclusion, new digital media (augmented reality, new media such as social media, etc.), urban development (smart cities,
Internet of Things, etc.) or the future of mobility. Enhanced collaboration between art and technology would not only
stimulate innovation and thereby enhance the competitiveness of Europe; it would also help unleash creativity in society
and in European regions. The 2015 Latvian Presidency conclusions on ‘crossovers from culture to businesses’ therefore
invited the European institutions to consider enhancing collaboration between arts and technology for a holistic
exploration of opportunities that overcomes the traditional boundaries of sectors, disciplines or the culture-engineering
divide.

The Commission — DG Connect — has reacted by launching the Starts programme — innovation at the nexus of
science, technology and the arts. This is a highly pertinent step focused on promoting innovation in industry with the
arts as a catalyst for unconventional thinking and exploration. The Commission is fostering innovation rooted in such
collaboration by introducing lighthouse projects that will put forward the crucial role of the arts in tackling challenges
in the context of the digital single market.

This pilot project will explore how best to put the programme on as broad a footing as possible and have Starts ideas
extended from pure industrial settings to, for instance, areas of regional and urban development where the digital also
plays a prominent role. It will develop a coherent horizontal framework for ‘art-technology’ thinking in Europe across
sectors and disciplines as well as across pertinent activities of European institutions (including framework programmes,
structural funds, education programmes, etc.).

The pilot project will create a network of key players from the arts world (arts institutions and artists engaging with
technology), digital media relying on the arts for media content, industry that considers art as a means for exploration
for possible application, and regions and cities willing to create infrastructure to host collaborations of artists and
technologists as a seed for urban development. It will support artistic explorations of technology, e.g. by supporting
technologies for performances and installations and will stimulate the most promising pathways by seed-funding ideas
for arts-technology collaborations. It will in particular foster practical mechanisms that help convert emerging ideas
from such collaborative explorations into tangible assets for European society and industry.

_Remarks_

This pilot project will consist of two phases: (1) a mapping exercise by the Joint Research Centre (JRC) on: (a) the
European ecosystem of companies and other organisations developing distributed ledger technologies (DLTs) for social
and public good, and/or cooperating with different policy actors at supranational, national, regional or local levels; (b)
relevant topics or use cases these companies or organisations are working on (e.g. DLTs for distribution and tracking of
funding or benefits, issuing digital IDs or remittance systems for migrants or displaced groups, and increasing
transparency of supply chains in order to combat trade in conf lict minerals, etc.); (c) potential advisers from different
disciplines and sectors that can guide or support these organisations; (2) an open challenge designed and launched by
the JRC and DG Connect to select up to 10 DLT projects or innovations tackling the topics identified. The selected
projects would be coached by advisers for a specific period of time (up to two months) in an incubator environment.
Specific JRC support for the projects through a ‘co-creation’ and ‘experimental’ approach is planned. After this period,
the projects will present their proof-of-concept prototypes to an independent panel. At a final event, one main prize
and two runner-up prizes will be announced.

Europe programme:

— facilitating the acquisition and improvement of skills and competences of audiovisual professionals and the
development of networks, including the use of digital technologies to ensure adaptation to market development,

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to fund general information to citizens on operations concerning the Union, for the
purpose of increasing the visibility of the work of the Union institutions, the decisions taken and the stages in the
building of Europe, so as to allow citizens to make full use of their right to be informed about and involved in European
policies. It concerns essentially the funding or co-funding of the production and/or dissemination of multimedia (radio,
TV, internet, etc.), information products, including pan-European networks made up of local and national media
delivering news on European affairs, as well as the tools necessary to develop such a policy. Part of this appropriation
will be used to ensure continuity of existing actions.

This appropriation also covers support expenditure such as studies, meetings, _ex post_ controls, expert technical and
administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service
contracts, evaluation and audit on current or future activities, feasibility studies, publications, and the repayment of
travel and related expenses of experts.

Where appropriate, the procurement and grant procedures may include the conclusion of framework partnerships, with
a view to promoting a stable financing framework for the pan-European networks funded under this appropriation.

The Commission, when implementing this article, should take duly into account the outcome of the meetings of the
Interinstitutional Group of Information (IGI).

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

The existing pilot project under Item 09 05 77 02, ‘Fostering European integration through culture by providing new
subtitled versions of selected European TV programmes across all Europe’, has been converted into a preparatory action
under Item 09 05 77 05, ‘Subtitling European cultural television content throughout Europe’.

This preparatory action will continue the pilot project financed in 2014 and 2015 and the preparatory action financed
by the Union budget in 2016 and 2017, the aim of which was to ascertain whether there is a European audience for
cultural programmes by providing a range of subtitled versions of selected TV programmes throughout Europe.

The pilot project is currently being developed by, among others, ARTE, the European cultural TV channel with its ‘ARTE
Europe’ project. The first phase (November 2015-November 2016) provided 600 hours a year of TV programmes in
four languages (French, German, English and Spanish). The second phase (November 2016-November 2017) renewed
and expanded the project by adding Polish, allowing European citizens to access that content in five languages online,
on mobile applications and on connected TV.

In the first year of the preparatory action (2016), ARTE was supposed to develop a third phase of ‘ARTE Europe’
(November 2017-November 2018), which will feature 400 hours of programming subtitled in five languages (French,
German, English, Spanish and Polish) and also include a smaller selection (50 hours a year) of programmes in Italian
and 360°/VR content in six languages.

_Remarks_

The objective of the preparatory action is to continue the achievements of the previous pilot project, which, through
specific actions, sought to increase critical thinking towards the media among citizens of all ages and to test the
feasibility and usefulness of such actions. Critical thinking includes, among other skills, the ability to distinguish
information from propaganda, to deconstruct media communication and information media policies and to interact
with social media in a mindful way. Its implementation covered a wide range of Member States with the final goal of
improving the technical, cognitive, social, civic and creative skills of citizens in order to stimulate their civic engagement
and their awareness of the importance of taking action and directly participating in social and democratic life. Media is
understood to mean all kinds of media outlets, such as radio, internet, broadcasting, newspapers and social media. The
target group was composed of citizens of all ages, with a particular focus on minorities, low-skilled people and people
at risk of being socially marginalised. The pilot project included social media campaigns, the creation of networks to
share best practices, conferences, workshops and training programmes.

_Remarks_

The pilot project will give minority language media representatives an opportunity to do an internship with leading
European media.

The main target group of the initiative are journalists that work for European media providing content in minority or
regional languages. The end beneficiaries of the project are European residents who speak minority or regional
languages and the people of Europe as a whole. Special priority for access to the programme will be given to media
outlets targeting marginalised groups (Roma, refugees and recent immigrants) and minority groups, which face
extensive information and propagandistic pressure from outside the Union. Special emphasis will be placed on media
working in Arabic, Turkish and Russian.

Objective: Internships in leading European media companies will help make minority media more able to promote a
pro-European agenda in minority languages. The project will provide minority media journalists with new professional
skills and experience permitting them to offer a European minority language audience up-to-date, professional and
competitive products. In other words, the project will facilitate competition with foreign and/or anti-European media.

Implementation: The one-year pilot project will be carried out on the basis of a call for proposals for civil society
organisations, media companies and professional journalist organisations. Only companies in the group of media
leaders in terms of size of audience or ratings in a particular Member State, several Member States or the Union as a
whole will be eligible to host trainees. All participating media must meet the standards set out in the International
Federation of Journalists Declaration of Principles on the Conduct of Journalists. The pilot project will cover travel and
subsistence expenses for interns for a period of up to four months.

The project will complement activities under the MEDIA subprogramme as it goes beyond purely cultural and
educational activities, deals with all sorts of media, both traditional and online, and touches upon the issues of
national security and strategic communication.

_Remarks_

These remarks are applicable to all the budget lines in this chapter.

This appropriation will be used for Horizon 2020 — the framework programme for research and innovation which
covers the 2014-2020 period.

Horizon 2020 shall play a central role in the delivery of the Europe 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive
growth (‘Europe 2020 strategy’) by providing a common strategic framework for the Union’s funding of excellent
research and innovation, thus acting as a vehicle for leveraging private and public investment, creating new job
opportunities and ensuring Europe’s long-term sustainability, growth, economic development, social inclusion and
industrial competitiveness, as well as addressing societal challenges across the Union.

In Horizon 2020, gender equality is addressed as a cross-cutting issue in order to rectify imbalances between women
and men and to integrate a gender dimension in research and innovation content. Particular account will be taken of the
need to step up efforts to enhance the participation at all levels, including decision-making, of women in research and
innovation.

This appropriation is intended to be used in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1290/2013 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 laying down the rules for participation and dissemination in

_Remarks_

In order to promote a culture of evidence-informed policy-making, it is important that Union policy-makers have a
regular exchange with scientists that allows them to better understand scientists' views on policy issues and vice versa.
This is the aim of the initiative ‘Science meets Parliaments and Regions’, by means of which the European Parliament
will organise large-scale events intended to bring together MEPs and national and regional parliamentarians and
scientific experts from European scientific organisations. Under this pilot project, events will be organised in a majority
of Member States to reach out to new stakeholders in order to establish an interface between policy-makers, scientists
and citizens, involving businesses, innovators and the public. Science is now at the heart of political and societal debates
in the Union. This initiative should be implemented in 2018 and 2019 in the Member States.

_TITLE 10 — DIRECT RESEARCH_

**CHAPTER 10 03 — EURATOM PROGRAMME — DIRECT ACTIONS** _(cont'd)_

The general objective of the Euratom programme is to pursue nuclear research and training activities with an emphasis
on continuous improvement of nuclear safety, security and radiation protection, in particular to potentially contribute
to the long-term decarbonisation of the energy system in a safe, efficient and secure way. It will cover both RTD indirect
actions on the fusion research and development, nuclear fission, safety and radiation protection research activities, as
well as the JRC direct actions in nuclear security and safety. The JRC will provide independent customer-driven scientific
and technological support for the implementation and monitoring of Community policies, in particular in the field of
nuclear safety and security research and training. By achieving these objectives, the Euratom programme will reinforce
outcomes under the three priorities of the Horizon 2020 framework programme: excellent science, industrial
leadership and societal challenges. These objectives are clearly linked to those of the Europe 2020 and Energy 2020
strategies and the creation and operation of the European Research Area.

_Remarks_

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

— grants to Advisory Councils (following the adoption of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013, the existing Regional
Advisory Councils (RACs) were transformed into Advisory Councils (ACs) and new ones are being created) to cover
operational costs as well as interpretation and translation costs of AC meetings,

— 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 ACs with a financial contribution. It will participate in
meetings when appropriate and analyse the recommendations issued by the ACs which may provide an input when
drafting legislation. Through the consultation of stakeholders in the ACs, 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.

Part of this 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 Member States as
well as in the candidate countries about the common fisheries policy and the integrated maritime policy.

Any revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 21 of the Financial
Regulation.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

This preparatory action will extend the overall conclusions of the TRECVET Core Curriculum for Skippers of Small
Commercial Vessels (TCC-SCV) project by deploying a common curriculum in all Member States.

The initial project, which was concluded on 16 June 2016, involved only nine Member States and this preparatory
action will include other interested Member States. Currently, professional qualifications of individual Member States
within the small commercial vessels sector are not mutually recognised by Member States. This affects the work-related
f lexibility and mobility of skippers, in that they can work only in the country where they obtained their qualifications.
The target group affected comprises charter boat skippers, marine service staff who move boats professionally in or
between ports, delivery skippers and dive boat skippers who ferry their customers to and from diving spots.

Provision of a core curriculum for skippers of SCV and its implementation at Union level should be the aim of this
action, with a view to being covered by the directive on mutual recognition of professional qualifications. This
preparatory action will complement and be in line with the New Skills Agenda for Europe within one of the six sectors
to be piloted in 2017 regarding the maritime sector.

Mutual recognition at Union level will have a direct and indirect impact on national economies. First of all, it will allow
Member States that do not have a curriculum on this specific topic to design and implement new SCV qualifications.
Secondly, the Member States that already have such a curriculum can adapt and redesign their SCV CV.

Moreover, this will attract new persons and create new jobs and work opportunities, as some of the restrictions on
mobility are diminished. This nautical tourism area is going to create new opportunities also for coastal and insular
regions. The impact of this will extend beyond the direct effect on the small commercial vessel sector, as this sector is
also an entry point for the growing superyacht industry and for merchant seafarers who are in need of qualified staff.

_Remarks_

The Joint Communication of the Commission and the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and
Security Policy of 10 November 2016 on International Ocean Governance (JOIN(2016) 49) stresses that using the
oceans wisely and tackling their problems is a task for everyone on earth. The basis for fulfilling that task is ocean
literacy.

This pilot project will:

(1) enhance civil engagement and raise awareness of maritime issues among European citizens;

(2) transform citizens and economic actors into informed ocean advocates, able to understand scientific and technical
marine and maritime information and become actors of change towards a more sustainable society;

(3) promote the development of digital services and innovative communication tools to facilitate the dissemination of
marine knowledge, data and materials to citizens and stakeholders;

(4) establish a one-stop-shop for all actors interested in ocean literacy; and

(5) coordinate the dissemination of knowledge and information.

The pilot project will create an ocean literacy hub to coordinate activities in Europe and neighbouring countries. It will
facilitate access to the services and products available and help to coordinate the efforts of partners already active in
ocean literacy in Europe.

The pilot project will encourage science and knowledge centres, maritime clusters and innovation hubs, museums and
aquariums to work in a coordinated manner to improve citizens’ abilities to participate in science initiatives, the
maritime economy and education. It will also encourage young people to pursue blue-related careers. The pilot project
will facilitate interaction between marine science institutions and decision-makers in order to enhance the science-policy
interface.

_Remarks_

Europe is a key market for the global cruise industry. In 2015 the global cruise industry carried 25,3 million passengers,
representing 956 597 jobs, with total output of USD 117 billion worldwide. The demand for cruises increased 62 % in
the 10 years from 2005 to 2015.

All of this translates into economic value and jobs for Europe. However, the coastal and maritime regions need to create
conditions to better integrate the advantages of cruise tourism. Accordingly, under this pilot project a manual of good
practices for cruises will be produced as part of the ongoing pan-European dialogue between cruise operators, ports and
coastal tourism stakeholders. The focus must be on environmental impact and on reception of cruises, but also on the
social impact and on how reception facilities in ports and regions should be adapted. The manual will cover the
following:

— environmental aspect and mitigation policies to reduce externalities,

— the social and economic dimension of cruises for regions,

— the need for coordination between cruise ports and surrounding cities,

— best practices already in place.

The manual will make it possible to reduce externalities from cruise operations and trigger more economic and social
benefits for cities and citizens, e.g. exchange of best practices on managing peak-season congestion. The manual will
also help improve mutual understanding between cruise ports and city authorities. It must also cover the possible
environmental impact of cruise services. In addition, so as to avoid duplication, it will help raise awareness of best
practices already in place in various cruise ports.

_Remarks_

This pilot project will establish an online platform to allow producer organisations to find information about each
another, exchange practices and discuss possible solutions to shared problems, including preparation and implementation of production and marketing plans. The platform will also offer specific services with a view to increasing
transnational cooperation among producer organisations, including the possibility of organising reciprocal short-term
study visits for producer organisations or seminars for producer organisations from different Member States on business
management and other market-related subjects. The pilot project will be carried out under a service contract (open
procurement procedure including, inter alia, consulting services, analysis and IT development, travel costs, and
translations fees).

_Remarks_

This pilot project will test a control scheme for sea bass catches by recreational fishermen in order to provide the Union
legislative authority with more options for the management and control of recreational fisheries, having regard also to
the future revision of Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Community control
[system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy (OJ L 343, 22.12.2009, p. 1) (Control](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2009&mm=12&jj=22&type=L&nnn=343&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
Regulation) and the drafting of multiannual management plans. This pilot project will develop innovative tools to
ensure efficient and harmonised control by Member States of recreational catches of sea bass in the Atlantic. In
particular, it will test electronic reporting tools that can be used via a smartphone application, for example, and examine
them in the broader context of current fisheries management and control arrangements involving, for instance, fishing
licenses, tracking devices, and monitoring and inspection activities.

_Remarks_

This pilot project continues the work of the Task Force on Distributed Ledger Technology to build up technical expertise
and regulator capacity and develop use cases, especially for governmental applications, in the field of distributed ledger
technology (DLT), as proposed in the European Parliament resolution of 26 May 2016 on virtual currencies
(P8_TA(2016)0228).

One specific use case that should be explored is the potential of DLT-based solutions in managing the situation of
refugees. Many refugees, and people in analogous situations, are unable to prove their identity or access essential
services. They do not have the necessary documentation to open a bank account, and without that documentation
many refugees are unable to access healthcare, seek legal protection or enrol their children in schools. At the same time,
governments of the Member States, in partnership with other countries and organisations (e.g. NGOs), need innovative
solutions to manage increasing f lows of migrants and their temporary stay in different countries. DLT applications
could lend themselves to such applications on account of their distributed and resilient architecture.

Some organisations have already begun to look into DLT applications in this respect, for example as a way to
independently authenticate and validate exchanges of information, from personal identification to money transfers.

The pilot project will assess and benchmark best approaches in using DLT-based solutions for control of borders and in
managing the situation of refugees.

_Remarks_

Creating a true Banking Union will lead to a European banking market in the euro area and, as a consequence, a more
stable Economic and Monetary Union. Generally, four elements are considered necessary in this regard: a single
supervisor, a single resolution mechanism, common high standards with regard to insurance protection, and a single
rulebook. Discussion on the single rulebook obviously focuses very much on the further harmonisation of the Capital
Requirements Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June
[2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms (OJ L 176, 27.6.2013, p. 1)) and the](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2013&mm=06&jj=27&type=L&nnn=176&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

within the legal framework for financial institutions, e.g. corporate laws, insolvency laws, securities laws and, potentially,
accounting rules. This pilot project will be used to conduct research into the differences in bank-related rules and
regulations in the euro area and to investigate in which areas further harmonisation is needed in order to create a true
Banking Union. In this regard, research will extend to all 19 euro area jurisdictions, with the aim of producing an
overview of the most relevant material provisions governing banks and the need for harmonisation of those rules in a
Banking Union. In addition, there will be research into the formal rules governing the responsibilities of national
competent authorities within the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) and national resolution authorities within the
Single Resolution Board (SRB), with a view to establishing whether and, if so, where further harmonisation of rules
would be justified so as to improve how the SSM and SRB work. Whether and, if so where, a different allocation of
responsibilities between national and Union levels might be appropriate, will also be considered. Research will take into
consideration the different traditions in European jurisdictions and the fact that, even in a Banking Union, maximum
harmonisation is not always feasible and necessary.

_Remarks_

The Investment Plan for Europe seeks to address the investment gap in the Union while addressing market failures and
suboptimal investments. It is based on three pillars: operation of the European Fund for Strategic Investments,
facilitating access to finance through the European Investment Advisory Hubs and the European Investment Project
Portal, and improvement of the investment environment through better regulation.

12 02 77 08 _(cont'd)_

Crowdfunding is an innovative tool for providing an alternative source of financing for SMEs and is perceived as
complementary to bank financing in the context of the Capital Markets Union. Although crowdfunding currently
represents a small share of the total funding of European SMEs, it has been growing fast, with an estimated EUR
4 100 million raised in 2015 through financial-returns-orientated models.

This pilot project will examine the potential of financial-returns-orientated crowdfunding models as an alternative
source of financing for SMEs in the context of the Investment Plan for Europe.

Provided that the Investment Plan for Europe is deployed to mobilise private investments in the Union, this pilot project
will focus on studying how to complement the banking sector in cases where there is evidence of market failure and
suboptimal investments.

To track cases where investments from SMEs are limited due to difficulties in accessing finance, account will be taken of
both the European Central Bank’s annual report on SMEs’ access to finance and the European Investment Bank (EIB)
Group Survey on Investment and Investment Finance. Furthermore, it should be taken into consideration that many
start-ups and innovative SMEs are under-collateralised and fail because of short-term cash f low problems while having a
sustainable business model in the long term.

The goal will be to assess in which Member State(s) the problem is more evident, to further explore the regulatory
framework and to build an action plan on how to deploy a crowdfunding investment platform in the context of the
Investment Plan for Europe, with a focus on market failures, and to facilitate the crowding-in of private finance. By way
of follow-up to the EIB’s guidelines for investment platforms, a market study should also be produced so as to identify
market potential and needs. The scope of the platform could be thematically or regionally based and could include
many Member States. Alternatively, the project could be used to identify best practices in supply chain finance (e.g.
invoice trading).

_Remarks_

Article 175 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union provides that the objectives of economic, social
and territorial cohesion set out in Article 174 shall be supported by the action it takes through the Structural Funds,
which includes the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). In accordance with Article 176, the ERDF is intended
to help redress the main regional imbalances in the Union. The tasks, priority objectives and the organisation of the
Structural Funds are defined in accordance with Article 177.

Article 80 of the Financial Regulation provides for financial corrections in the event of expenditure incurred in breach
of applicable law.

Article 39 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999, Articles 100 and 102 of Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 and Articles 85,
144 and 145 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 on criteria for financial corrections by the Commission provide for
specific rules on financial corrections applicable to the ERDF.

Any revenue from the financial corrections carried out on that basis is entered in Article 6 5 1, 6 5 2, 6 5 3 or 6 5 4 of
the statement of revenue and constitutes assigned revenue in accordance with point (c) of Article 21(3) of the Financial
Regulation.

Article 177 of the Financial Regulation lays down the conditions for the repayment in full, or in part, of prefinancing
payments in respect of a given operation.

Article 82 of Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 provides for specific rules on repayment of prefinancing applicable to the
ERDF.

Prefinancing amounts repaid shall constitute internal assigned revenue in accordance with Article 21(4) of the Financial
Regulation and shall be entered in Item 6 1 5 0 or 6 1 5 7.

Measures to combat fraud are funded from Article 24 02 01.

development. It is promoting cooperation between regional and local authorities and the private sector on both the
Union and CELAC sides.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will provide assistance also to regions substantially lagging behind in efforts to strengthen their
‘stairway to excellence’, and provide lessons for the future. This preparatory action, introduced in the 2016 budget, is
organised along two main lines: (1) more detailed action on specific bottlenecks at national level; (2) more solid support
to solve the most recurrent weaknesses in taking up corresponding policy recommendations. Specific measures under
this preparatory action consist in setting up a review process on the basis of smart specialisation strategies agreed by all
stakeholders, as well as in providing policymakers with evidence and experience relating to Horizon 2020 and ESI Fund
2014-2020 implementation, especially as regards R&D expenditure. The aim is also to identify ongoing positive/
negative trends with regard to participation in cross-border consortia.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action builds on the positive outcomes of a previous European Parliament initiative on refinement and
implementation of an RIS3 strategy in the Greek region of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace (REMTh), which served as a
test bed for the theory of smart specialisation. It provides appropriate and specific support for activities in selected
regions that are lagging behind, together with a more horizontal approach to key issues regarding the growth and
governance of these regions. This preparatory action targets two types of regions that are lagging behind: low growth
regions (regions in Member States that had a GDP per capita in purchasing power standards (PPS) below the Union
average in 2012 and did not converge with the Union average between 2002 and 2012 — regions in Greece, Italy,
Spain and Portugal) and underdeveloped regions (regions with a GDP per capita in PPS below 50 % of the Union
average in 2011 — several regions in Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland and Romania). This preparatory action introduced in
the 2016 budget aims to support eight regions: four low-growth regions and four underdeveloped regions, focusing on
governance, transnational cooperation and refinement of the RIS3 model. The specific activities under this preparatory
action require back-to-back on-site events in each region, including stakeholder events and peer reviews, providing
support for critical aspects for implementing the RIS3 in each region, as well as the deployment of cross-cutting
activities such as evidence-based support for policy development and further development of practical support for
regions across the Union whose development is lagging behind.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

The preparatory action will seek to ensure a coherent, coordinated and sustainable approach, to secure, develop and
enhance engagement of all relevant stakeholders (business, academia, research organisations and civil society) and to
create linkage between regional research and innovation smart specialisation strategy/strategies (RIS3) and the existing
national RIS3, given the difficulties of the Romanian innovation system. The action will cover those regions where no
RIS3 has been devised or started, and those whose RIS3 needs to be improved. The preparatory action will also seek to
identify, assess, and support exploitation of the economic potential in a selected region, and to explore its innovation
potential and the scope for its expansion. It will clearly target identification of economic competitive advantages and the
potential for specialisation at regional level based on an entrepreneurship discovery process, establishing a governance
structure and framework for continuous collaboration between businesses and researchers, and support for preparation
of the relevant policy documents. It may also look into how to enhance cooperation and coordination at all levels
(including between national ministries).

It should also provide information on how best to channel cohesion policy funding towards implementation of national
and regional RIS3 and thus support implementation and management of operational programmes. It will make use of
existing mechanisms such as the platform in Seville. The preparatory action may lead to adjustments to the financial
programming documents.

The general objective is to promote sustainable economic and social prosperity of the Alpine Region through growth
and job creation, by improving its attractiveness, competitiveness and connectivity, while at the same time preserving
the environment and ensuring a healthy and balanced ecosystem reducing the economic and social imbalance between
the different areas of the macro-region because of the specific features of mountain areas. The Alpine Region contains
Europe’s largest mountain range, with low population density, high vulnerability to climate change and biodiversity loss,
a high degree of seasonality, especially in some tourist areas, and ageing populations. Transport and energy infrastructure is also a critical factor because of its impact on the landscape.

During the second phase, the preparatory action will:

— identify, analyse and foster all best innovative practices and existing networks for green solutions in the Alpine
region and in the pre- alpine areas, thus facilitating knowledge transfer and exchange of innovation in a circular
economy, with a particular focus on strategic sectors such as tourism and agriculture,

— foster integration with a particular focus on the role of young people, by identifying solutions for job creation, such
as better integration between education, vocational training and business,

— identify actions for the provision of e-services which could benefit the most vulnerable sections of the Alpine
population, such as young people and the elderly,

— identify pilot actions for sustainable transport at local level.

Under the urban agenda for the EU, a number of working groups (called ‘Partnerships’) will be set up to identify
innovative solutions to the problems faced by cities and the potential they could harness. These innovative solutions will
concern the main urban issues: urban mobility, air quality, affordable housing, urban poverty, etc. The aim of this
preparatory action is to facilitate the participation of cities in this innovative approach and to experiment with a new
way of involving cities in policymaking and delivery.

This preparatory action will be particularly important, in order to provide input to the (re)designing of various Union
policies, including cohesion policy. Indeed, the Partnerships will all have to identify how to make better use of funds and
knowledge (base and exchange) to support the work in cities and by cities, thereby providing useful inputs for
policymakers.

The preparatory action will support work by the Commission, Member States and cities to come up with these
innovative solutions. It will focus on the following activities:

— providing expertise and administrative support to the Partnerships by:

— supporting the coordinators in managing their work (organising meetings, reporting, monitoring, etc.),

— providing specific expertise/experts,

— preparing and organising meetings and workshops to:

— communicate to a wider audience the different urban issues partnerships work on (including consultation on the
Action Plans),

— work on synergies between Partnerships on the different urban issues (such as urban poverty and housing),

— gain specific knowledge from experts at expert meetings or subgroup meetings on specific issues organised
within the Partnerships (for example on undocumented migrants),

— implement a real multi-level governance approach within the working partners,

— monitoring and reporting on the progress of the work,

— providing an overview of concrete proposals (Action Plan) for changes in the different Union policy fields (with
recommendations for better regulation, better funding and better knowledge) resulting from the Partnerships,

— developing and testing innovative solutions for the involvement of cities in policymaking and delivery of Union
goals,

— developing urban one-stop shops — single point of information on the urban dimension of Union policies.

_Remarks_

The EU Regional Social Progress Index (RSPI) represents the first comprehensive framework for measuring social
progress that is independent of traditional economic indicators. Sitting alongside economic indicators as a complementary benchmark for performance, the RSPI provides a systematic, empirical foundation that can inform public
policies and bring the Union closer to its citizens.

This pilot project will deploy the EU RSPI in at least five Union regions, with a particular focus on Southern and Central
European regions that are lagging behind. The project will have several stages: 1) training for local and regional
authorities in the respective regions in the methodology and use of the RSPI; 2) conducting an in-depth analysis of EU
RSPI results; and 3) facilitating cooperation between selected regions to address similar challenges and emulate best
practices.

The findings and reports from the project will inform post-2020 cohesion policy programming and regional
development strategies, with the possibility of scaling up the project to include more regions in the future.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the continuation of aid under Regulation (EC) No 389/2006 to facilitate the
reunification of Cyprus by encouraging the economic development of the Turkish Cypriot community with particular
emphasis on economic integration of the island, on improving contacts between the two communities and with the
Union, and on preparation for the _acquis_ . Assistance is delivered in the areas specified in that Regulation, and includes
notably the promotion of social and economic developments, the development and restructuring of infrastructure,
reconciliation, confidence building measures and support to civil society, and bringing the Turkish Cypriot community
closer to the Union, including scholarships for Turkish Cypriot students. Also, the TAIEX instrument is used for the
preparation of legal texts for the purpose of these being applicable upon the entry into force of a comprehensive
settlement of the Cyprus problem, as well as for the preparation of the Union _acquis_ immediately following a political
settlement for reunification.

The appropriations will, in particular, allow for the continuation of Union financial support to facilitate the
intensification of the work of the Committee on Missing Persons in order to meet the goals of its strategic plan on
the faster identification of missing persons, as well as the implementation of the decisions of the bi-communal
Technical Committee on Cultural Heritage, which should include projects of minorities.

This appropriation is to be used, inter alia, to sustain the outcome of works, supplies and grants being funded under
earlier allocations. In addition, grant schemes addressed to a large variety of economic and civil society beneficiaries
(non-governmental organisations, students and teachers, schools, farmers, small villages, and the private sector) may
continue. These activities aim at socio-economic development and are driven by the prospect of reunification. Priority
should be given, where possible, to reconciliation projects that create bridges between the two communities and build
confidence. These measures underline the strong desire and commitment of the Union to Cyprus settlement and
reunification.

_Remarks_

In line with the general objective of the Erasmus+ programme and in particular with the objectives of the Strategic
framework for European cooperation in education and training (ET 2020), as well as in support of the sustainable
development of third countries in the field of higher education, this appropriation is intended to pursue the following
specific objectives in the field of education and training:

— to improve the level of key competences and skills with particular regard to their relevance for the labour market
and contribution to a cohesive society, notably through increased opportunities for learning mobility and strengthened cooperation between the world of education and training and the world of work,

— to foster quality improvements, innovation excellence and internationalisation at the level of education and training
institutions, notably through enhanced transnational cooperation between education and training providers and
other stakeholders,

— to promote the emergence and raise awareness of a European lifelong learning area, to complement policy reforms
at national level and to support the modernisation of education and training systems, notably through enhanced
policy cooperation, better use of Union transparency and recognition tools and the dissemination of good practices,

— to enhance the international dimension of education and training, notably through cooperation between Union and
third country institutions in the field of vocational education and training (VET) and in higher education, by
increasing the attractiveness of European higher education institutions and supporting the Union’s external action,
including its development objectives, through the promotion of mobility and cooperation between the Union and
third country higher education institutions and targeted capacity building in third countries,

— to improve the teaching and learning of languages and to promote the Union’s broad linguistic diversity and
intercultural awareness, including minority and endangered languages,

— to support free, high-quality public education in such a way as to guarantee that no pupil is denied access to or
forced to break off any level of education on economic grounds, with particular attention being paid to the first
years of schooling, with a view to preventing early school-leaving and ensuring that children from the least-favoured
sections of society can be fully integrated.

_Remarks_

The amount of EUR 6 000 000 was allocated to co-finance the European Special Olympics Winter Games in Graz/
Schladming, Austria (14-25 March 2017). This funding allowed participating athletes from all 28 Member States to
train, to prepare and to attend the Games in Austria.

3 000 athletes and their delegations from 110 countries participated in this event and competed in eight sports over
eight days. More than 3 000 volunteers helped to make this multi-sport event unique. Along with the sports
programme, other scientific, educational, cultural and family programmes were set up. A host town programme and
many special events were organised before, during, and after the Games so as to ensure a strong legacy of inclusion and
acceptance for people with intellectual disabilities in Austria and across the Member States.

15 02 77 16 _(cont'd)_

Over recent years there has been an increasing focus on entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurship programs in
higher-education institutions. In particular, with HEInnovate, higher-education institutions seek to promote entrepreneurial skills and competences, as well as assessing their own entrepreneurial capabilities. However, the perspective
of students on the effectiveness of entrepreneurship projects and programmes has not yet been taken into account.
Similarly, companies and the private sector in general are rarely involved in the evaluation of these programmes. While
maintaining a close link between private sector needs and academic curricula, it is necessary to also include all
stakeholders (students, teachers and professionals) in the process of evaluating entrepreneurship programmes so as to
guarantee that they effectively deliver to students the appropriate set of skills for their careers.

This action will build on the existing HEInnovate instrument and bring feedback from students, the private sector and
academic staff as added value to the already tested and proven framework and procedures.

This action will also encourage sharing of best practices at international level, involving in the process also highereducation institutions/universities in order to facilitate the implementation of such tools in student curricula.

Ultimately, with the budget for student evaluation of higher-education entrepreneurship programmes, the aim is to
foster the development and improve the quality of entrepreneurship programmes across Europe, thus contributing to
turning Europe into an entrepreneurial society.

In recent years, the European project has been seemingly weakened, both from within and from without. Public trust
needs to be revived, while knowledge of the European integration process and awareness of European culture and values

Following the 30th anniversary of the death of Altiero Spinelli, one of the founding fathers of the Union, and on the
60th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome, concrete efforts should be made to address this ‘disenchantment’
with the Union.

The aim of the Altiero Spinelli Prize for Outreach will be to promote research into the Union integration process,
including its history and the history of the European ideal. Current actions in the field of EU studies do not cater for
young researchers/doctoral students.

It will encourage, reward and provide European level recognition and visibility to high-quality contributions which:

(1) promote knowledge of the Union and a critical ref lection on the past, present and future of the Union among nonspecialist audiences and the general public. The role of citizens and civil society organisations in the Union
integration process, the intellectual history of European integration and, of course, the life and works of Altiero
Spinelli would be considered to fall under this category;

(2) enhance citizens' understanding of the values, objectives and benefits of the European integration process and of
the enormous accomplishments of the Union, but also of the failures, contradictions and dilemmas. Improving
understanding among the general public of the theory of models of integration (e.g. trade agreements, international
organisations, federations) and comparative studies of existing integration models (e.g. the Union, the African
Union, Mercosur, the USA and Canada) would be considered to fall under this category;

(3) propose, test and assess innovative approaches and materials that European and national policy-makers, practitioners, civil society organisations and institutions in various fields can use to better inform, educate, inspire and
empower citizens to develop positive and positively critical European identities and a sense of belonging;

(4) expose anti-Union populist myths on various aspects of the European integration process, including extremist
rhetoric based on intolerance and misinformation about the legitimacy, competences and actual work of the Union.

The prizes are not intended to reward research as such. Rather, they will be awarded for outstanding work that draws
largely upon and best exploits, popularises, effectively communicates and spreads to the wider society and to ordinary
citizens the findings, knowledge and insights emerging from research into the processes of European integration, for
example through publications, the media, newspapers, films, documentaries or other products or means, as well as
through institutional initiatives.

Prizes will be awarded to attractive, appealing, user-friendly, evidence-based/informed, scientifically rigorous, mythbusting and inspiring work with a strong potential to achieve the objectives set out above and suitable for outreach to a
variety of lay, non-academic and non-specialist audiences.

There should be cooperation with existing programmes, i.e. Jean Monnet Actions, and also existing institutions, e.g. the
Historical Archives of the European Union at the European University Institute.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

With the growing number of refugees, there is an increasing need for effective integration and social inclusion
initiatives. Sport projects — especially involving football — have proved to be successful tools for the integration of
refugees and the promotion of social inclusion in host communities. This pilot project will involve local sport clubs in
the integration of refugees. It will leverage the local expertise of existing initiatives in Member States with the aim of:

(1) launching a pilot programme supporting concrete community-based football initiatives (European centres of
expertise). The focus will be on the integration of refugee communities across the Union and neighbouring
regions through local sport projects;

(2) identifying best practices in Europe and developing concepts which can be implemented in third countries,
focusing on refugee integration through football. A method to assess impact in a systematic, replicable manner will
be developed;

(3) coordinating efforts through a networking platform.

The project will serve as a pilot for establishing and expanding football-based social integration programmes supporting
refugees and host communities in Europe and beyond. The expected outcomes include:

(1) promoting the direct engagement of refugees and host communities in strategic locations (within the Union, in
transit countries, and in third States) and the establishment of European centres of expertise through capacity
building;

(2) developing a methodology of football-based refugee integration programmes which can be adapted for similar,
future initiatives;

(3) putting in place a platform to disseminate the practice developed;

(4) promoting a Europe-wide approach, increasing the potential for European host communities to successfully engage
and integrate refugees through sport.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot

The recent terrorist attacks in Europe highlighted an increased security threat posed by young, radicalised European
citizens. Arguably, increased inequality, social exclusion and marginalisation are often root causes of this radicalisation
trend.

This appropriation is intended to cover bottom-up sport-related projects organised by local actors and civil society,
targeting young people from disadvantaged family backgrounds — especially those who are considered at risk of
radicalisation — with the aim of preventing marginalisation and radicalisation, tackling inequalities and helping these
youngsters to find an identity and a sense of belonging.

Sports activities are extremely well suited for community-building and strengthen social inclusion by respecting
diversity and multicultural communities. Therefore, projects should offer sports, education and job coaching to teach
essential skills such as social and communicative competences, critical thinking and problem solving.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will serve as a trial for the upcoming Commission legislative proposal setting up a fully f ledged
programme providing every European turning 18 with a free Interrail pass, not only giving them an opportunity to
explore Europe, but also, more importantly, better connecting young people with European identity and raising
awareness of the Union’s core values.

Because of low purchasing power, cultural obstacles, and a lack of inclusive and targeted projects, very many young
Europeans have never or rarely travelled within Europe. This is particularly true for particular regions of Europe and for
low-income families. Although educational exchange programmes exist and have benefited many Europeans, the Union
has still not managed to set up a straightforward and inclusive tool providing any Europeans — regardless of social or
educational background — a travel experience that would foster a European identity, familiarise them with a sustainable
and clean mode of transport, and connect them with other cultures.

The European Parliament has repeatedly welcomed the Interrail initiative and stressed that, if it were socially and
geographically inclusive and at all times tied in with educational objectives, it could offer the younger generation a
chance to take advantage of freedom of movement and travel in an environment-friendly way. Parliament has called for
the initiative to be funded directly from a dedicated budget line unrelated to Heading 1a programmes for the transport
sector and other sectors important for competitiveness and growth of the Union and independently from other
successful Union youth programmes.

For the initial project to be successful, operational aspects could be explored through this preparatory action, on a
limited scale and on the basis of a targeted approach, meeting the following key requirements and key objectives:

_Key requirements_

The Commission must build on experience gained from existing programmes, but the preparatory action must be
viewed as new and separate, in particular with a view to targeting young people who are currently not covered by any
European programme.

Accordingly, programmes such as Erasmus+ programme must not be affected by the preparatory action.

The preparatory action will cover young people from all Member States regardless of whether they are part of the
Interrail network (the five Member States currently not covered being Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta and Cyprus).

_Action points:_

— identifying, contacting and involving the relevant stockholders, including European rail enterprises, in defining the
product to be offered to young people turning 18, this to extend to negotiations on pricing so as to determine the
final number of users that could benefit from the preparatory action,

— determining the number of young people who could be given the pass,

— purchasing passes at the price negotiated with EuRail,

— distributing passes to beneficiaries,

— defining precisely what the Interrail pass is to cover so as to match young people’s travel patterns (duration, validity,
seasonal requirements, time and budgetary constraints, load factors),

— setting up a user-friendly system for 18-year-olds to apply for the pass,

— setting up an impartial and objective process to select users who will benefit from the preparatory action, including
defining criteria inter alia allowing all Member States to be covered, including the five that are currently not part of
the Interrail network — i.e. Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta and Cyprus — and allowing young people to be
targeted who do not already benefit from a European programme,

— producing a straightforward voucher solution, for distributing and personalising passes, in close cooperation with
relevant stakeholders,

— investigating, together with the relevant stakeholders, mechanisms to encourage specific itineraries for young people
so that they really experience Europe (which will include less ‘popular’ destinations),

— defining and making arrangements to publicise the programme, so as to ensure visibility, with a particular focus on
linking the initiative to a campaign on European identity and values,

— looking into sponsorship and partnership arrangements for the operational aspects of the project, with a view to
lowering costs and reach as many participants as possible,

— developing a creative and participative way for users to share and follow up their experience (e.g. a photo
competition and social media contributions)

The preparatory action should be implemented in 2018, 2019 and 2020.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will provide an opportunity for sport support team staff (sportsmen’s and sportswomen’s
entourages) to improve their qualifications and acquire new skills through spending a period abroad (inside and outside
the Union). Opportunities for learning mobility in this context will be provided for:

— coaching staff — volunteers — professional sport,

— coaching staff — volunteers in not-for-profit sports organisations.

In a second phase, the will support sportsmen and sportswomen in pursuing dual careers through exchanges (with EU
as well as non-EU countries), with a focus on education without jeopardising their sporting careers. This will enhance
their future employability as well as their personal development.

The initiative will be based on the following:

— exchanges,

— placements,

— periods of study,

— job-shadowing.

The action could have an impact in three major fields:

— improving the knowledge and know-how of sport support team staff,

— allowing students who play sport to have access to training sessions (including facilities) on the same conditions as
nationals,

— developing international cooperation in the field of mobility and education in sport.

The expected outcomes include:

(1) a regular exchange scheme for sport support team staff;

_Remarks_

Organisations that encourage and support European cities to excel in sport have greatly contributed to the promotion
of physical activities. Moreover, they have helped municipalities throughout Europe to score major achievements such as
increasing the percentage of people who practice sport, integrating communities and social sectors, attracting
investment to the community, generating new opportunities, increasing focus on sport policies involving other areas
such as education, health, social affairs and tourism. All this has been done under the Union brand, with a common
sense of belonging, and European pride at the same time. Increased support for organisations promoting sport and
physical activity at municipal level, in particular in the context of the European Capital, City, Community and Town of
Sport, will certainly have a great impact, and furthermore increase the associated benefits of sport and physical activity
for all citizens. There is a clear need to support organisations that work all year round in this field in terms of capacity
building, networking and ability to develop specific projects at local level.

This preparatory action will support organisations that promote sport initiatives at local level with the goal of
disseminating the positive values of sport.

The main goals of this action are to:

— make it possible for the relevant organisations to develop a European approach to promoting sport at local level,
helping them to become financially sustainable promoters of sport activities among the European public, on the
basis of the principles of good governance, as promoted by international organisations and the Commission,

— create or develop a network of cities and towns so that they can exchange best practices in the field,

_Remarks_

These remarks are applicable to all the budget lines in this chapter.

This appropriation will be used for Horizon 2020 — the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (20142020) of the European Union, and for the completion of the previous research programmes (Seventh Framework
Programme) and the completion of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) from the previous
financial period.

The Programme shall play a central role in the implementation of the Europe 2020 f lagship initiative ‘Innovation
Union’ and other f lagship initiatives, notably ‘Resource-efficient Europe’, ‘An industrial policy for the globalisation era’,
and ‘A digital agenda for Europe’, as well as in the development and functioning of the European Research Area.
Horizon 2020 shall contribute to building an economy based on knowledge and innovation across the whole Union by
leveraging sufficient additional research, development and innovation funding.

It will be carried out in order to pursue the general objectives set out in Article 179 of the Treaty on the Functioning of
the European Union, in order to contribute to the creation of a society of knowledge, based on the European Research
Area, i.e. supporting transnational cooperation at all levels throughout the Union, taking the dynamism, creativity and
the excellence of European research to the limits of knowledge, strengthening human resources for research and for
technology in Europe, quantitatively and qualitatively and research and innovation capacities in the whole of Europe
and ensuring optimum use thereof.

In Horizon 2020, gender equality is addressed as a cross-cutting issue in order to rectify imbalances between women
and men and to integrate a gender dimension in research and innovation content. Particular account will be taken of the
need to step up efforts to enhance the participation at all levels, including decision-making, of women in research and
innovation.

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.

_Remarks_

Europe needs a strong and creative human resource base, mobile across countries and sectors, and has to be attractive
for the best researchers, European and non-European. This will be achieved by structuring and raising excellence in a
substantial share of the high-quality initial training of early stage researchers and doctoral candidates and by supporting
attractive career opportunities for experienced researchers in both public and private sectors worldwide. Researchers are
encouraged to move between countries, sectors and disciplines to enhance their creative and innovative potential. In
addition, initiatives will be supported to raise awareness of the importance of the research career and to disseminate the
results of research and innovation to the wider public.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover EIT’s staff and administrative expenditure, and operational expenditure relating
to the work programme, including the knowledge and innovation communities (KICs) designated by the EIT.

In the framework of the EIT’s Strategic Innovation Agenda (SIA) and Regulation (EU) No 1292/2013, the EIT will
contribute to the general objective and priorities of ‘Horizon 2020 — The Framework Programme for Research and
Innovation’, with the specific objective of integrating the knowledge triangle of higher education, research and
innovation. The EIT aims to give Europe’s innovation capacity a much needed boost and its overall goal is to create a
new European way of delivering essential economic growth and societal benefits through innovation by helping
transform innovative ideas into products and services that create sustainable growth and jobs.

Knowledge and innovation communities are the operational base of the EIT. They are excellence-driven partnerships,
which bring together the whole innovation web in order to offer new opportunities for innovation in Europe and
generate real impact in terms of new business creation and societal benefits. They address focused innovation topics and
integrate public and private research organisations, innovative industries, higher education institutions, investors, startups and spin-offs. The first three KICs were designated in December 2009 and address the following societal challenges:
climate change mitigation and adaptation (through Climate-KIC), sustainable energy (through KIC InnoEnergy) and
future information and communication society (through EIT ICT Labs). Two additional KICs were designated in 2014 in
the themes of Raw Materials and Innovation for Healthy Living and Active Ageing. In the future, the EIT will expand its
portfolio of KICs to up to three additional ones addressing the topics: Food for the Future, Added Value Manufacturing
and Urban Mobility.

The EIT aims to generate tangible impact in the following areas:

— addressing key societal challenges: the KICs combine expertise from across disciplines to ensure innovative and
global responses to complex societal challenges,

— setting a clear business-friendly framework: turning new ideas into tangible new products, services or business
opportunities will be the main benchmark of the EIT’s and the KICs’ success,

— enhancing the free f low of knowledge through co-location: the KICs are organised around co-location centres —
geographical locations where most or the whole innovation chain is in close proximity. The emphasis is on people
from diverse backgrounds (industry, SMEs, academia, nationality, gender, discipline, etc.) working together with faceto-face contact, thus leading to great mobility of knowledge,

— creating a new generation of entrepreneurs: people with an entrepreneurial mind-set are the drivers of innovation,
thereby keeping our economies and societies moving. The EIT promotes entrepreneurship education as a key feature
of KICs’ Masters and doctoral programmes by shifting the emphasis from ‘learning about’ to ‘learning by doing’. The
Master and PhD programmes will provide students with the entrepreneurial skills they need to succeed in the
knowledge economy, focusing on learning outcomes and the use of innovative teaching methods.

The EIT’s strategic objectives for this period are to consolidate and synergise its operations and to prepare for achieving
the priorities set out in the Strategic Innovation Agenda (2014-2020): firstly, by incentivising growth, impact and
sustainability by continuing to strengthen its partnership with the three existing KICs whilst creating new KICs. By
following an incremental development path in establishing new KICs, the EIT will ensure leading up to a total portfolio
of nine KICs in the period 2014-2020 (equalling the set-up of 40-50 co-location centres across the Union); secondly, by
enhancing the EIT’s impact by fostering entrepreneurship-driven innovation across the Union through wide dissemination of novel innovation models attracting and developing talent from across Europe; and thirdly, by introducing new
means of achieving impact, alongside results-oriented monitoring.

The establishment plan of the EIT is set out in Annex ‘Staff’ to this section.

creative sectors; improve the capacity of financial institutions to assess cultural and creative projects, including technical
assistance and networking measures.

This will be achieved through:

— providing guarantees to appropriate financial intermediaries from any country participating in the Creative Europe
Programme,

_Remarks_

Building on the results of the pilot project, the preparatory action will contribute to the objectives of the Union in the
field of culture as stated in Article 167 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union: to ‘contribute to the
f lowering of the cultures of the Member States, while respecting their national and regional diversity’ and encourage
‘cooperation between Member States and, if necessary, supporting and supplementing their action’ in the field of
culture.

The preparatory action will cover wider objectives and policies of the Union. It will generate and deliver added value for
the activities carried out by festivals in Europe which contribute to the Europe 2020 strategy of smart, sustainable and
inclusive growth thanks to their spill-over effects in the cultural and creative sectors, in tourism, and in regional and
urban development, etc.

It will also capitalise on the potential of festivals in order to maximise their contribution to various Union policies,
including innovation, social inclusion, education, youth work and intercultural dialogue.

Lastly, by promoting the visibility of Europe's values through festivals, the preparatory action will reach a large number
of citizens across Europe, in particular young people. It will prepare the ground for making the award and label a
permanent feature. It is expected that the organisation selected will:

— develop a reliable and transparent mechanism for selecting European festivals to receive a label/award,

_Remarks_

This is an extension of the pilot project for 2018. The additional amount is intended to extend the pilot project for one

more year.

_Project overview_

The project will comprise three stages:

(1) research-based analysis of the volume of and routes for illicit trafficking of cultural objects;

(2) awareness-raising and training activities modules for judges, police and customs officers, government administrations and art market players, as well as awareness-raising campaigns targeted at the general public;

(3) reproduction and dissemination of lost cultural heritage and possible use of new techniques by museums and
cultural or educational institutions.

_Outcome/possible evolution of the project_

A conference and a study for the first stage, training modules for the second stage and an inventory of new techniques
for the third stage.

_Innovative/experimental nature of the project_

The concept of the project is not covered by any existing programme. The project is too complex for a cooperation
project under the cultural strand of the Creative Europe Programme; in addition, some essential activities could not be
covered (for instance the training modules for judges, police and customs officers) and the integrated character of the
pilot project would therefore be lost. Co-financing requirements would be very difficult to meet for cultural organisations or even for international organisations.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

There is a clear momentum for cultural heritage as a strategic resource for a sustainable and peaceful Europe — 2018
European Year of Cultural Heritage, Council conclusions on a work plan for culture 2015-2018 — recalling the
importance of activating spillover effects and synergies across different stakeholders to safeguard, develop and transmit
cultural heritage to future generations.

The following preparatory action proposal is targeted to a cluster of specific stakeholders that are not directly benefiting
from current policies and programmes and that are key to implement a locally rooted and people-centred approach to
cultural heritage able to catalyse open innovation in the sector.

European family-owned heritage houses are a key component of the Union’s cultural heritage and a contributor to the
attractiveness of Europe’s regions, cities, towns and rural areas. Current actions of the Union specifically dedicated to
cultural heritage, such as the European Heritage Days, EU Prize for Cultural Heritage, and European Heritage Label, are
initiatives that attract larger cultural actors and SMEs better than households and family-owned micro-enterprises
managing heritage and historic houses. Lacking the capability to sustain the owned cultural heritage legacies,
households and families strive to develop and adopt innovative business models, relying upon traditional solutions
(i.e. visits, events, etc.) and models that aren’t adapted to seize the opportunities created by the digital economy and CCI
spillover effects on the economy and society.

Furthermore, a long-standing lack of maintenance and a weak culture of stewardship increase the risk of deterioration
and neglect that should be prevented by targeting family-owned cultural heritage specific challenges.

The objective of the proposed preparatory actions is to map which micro-business models are being used by familyowned heritage houses in the Union, compare and share them between the houses to boost this ecosystem.

In order to quantify and qualify the economic potential of the sector in the Union a study should take place, setting the
framework to qualify the peculiarities of the sector, and define the business ecosystem. As a result of those case studies,
micro-business models for innovation in European family-owned heritage houses will be typified and made accessible to
the concerned actors and stakeholders. Finally, recommendations to the Commission will be formulated based on the
actions promoted during the pilot project.

_Remarks_

Before World War II, more than seven million Jews lived in central and eastern Europe. Jews had been living there for
centuries. Records show thousands of towns and villages with Jewish populations, as is attested to by the establishment
and use of independent burial sites owned by Jewish communities. Eighty years on, traces of many of these cemeteries
have been lost, or they lie overgrown and unprotected, as a result of the annihilation of their communities in the
Holocaust. Some sites were deliberately hidden from view or denied by a political system that refused to acknowledge
the specifically Jewish nature of the Nazi genocide. The European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative has demonstrated that the
destruction of Jewish cemeteries is continuing. Today, within most of the Union, any historical data previously
catalogued is now very much out of date and does not reflect in any way the situation on the ground, while in large
parts of Eastern Europe even the historical data is not comprehensive. The task is to create both a permanent and
ongoing historical record but also to conduct a sort of holding operation, preserving this unique European historical
heritage before it disappears. At the local level, the physical presence and protection of the sites also demonstrates in a
very visible sense where racism, anti-Semitism and intolerance leads. The pilot project will conduct a broad sample
survey of at least 1 500 Jewish cemeteries in Eastern European countries, each of which presents a unique challenge
with regard to the current state of Jewish cemeteries. The target countries for the project will be the Member States
Greece, Slovakia and Lithuania and the neighbourhood countries Ukraine and Moldova.

_Remarks_

The concept of European Houses of Culture is referred to in Joint Communication to the European Parliament and the
Council of 8 June 2016 entitled ‘Towards an EU strategy for international cultural relations’ (JOIN(2016) 29 final) as
one of the tools for enhanced Union cooperation in the area of cultural external relations. They are described as
institutions that ‘would enable cultural institutes and other stakeholders to come together and provide services to the
local population, engage in joint projects and offer scholarships, cultural and educational exchanges’. This also ties in
with a recommendation made in the study ‘European Cultural Institutes abroad’ produced for the European Parliament’s
Committee on Culture and Education in 2016.

This preparatory action will test initial experience with European Houses of Culture in a limited number of priority
countries/regions and examine their potential in a number of partner countries in different formats, including
permanent structures, pop-up formats, festival pavilions or purely digital tools. It can be developed over two years in
order to have the time needed to launch the various projects, deliver them and check outcomes with a view to further
recommendations.

_Remarks_

Europe is home to some of the leading music songwriters, performers, concert venues, festivals, record labels,
publishers, distributors, start-ups and digital services in the world. In recent years, the creation, production, distribution
and consumption of music have fundamentally changed: new distribution channels, powerful digital players, innovative
start-ups, business models and consumption patterns have emerged. Digitalisation, for example in the case of music
streaming, has brought opportunities, but also many challenges for the sector.

This preparatory action will address some of the sector’s main challenges, taking into account the outcome of the recent
Union-level dialogue with music stakeholders and focusing on the following fields:

(a) off line and online distribution (e.g. increasing citizens’ access to music in all its diversity);

(b) artist and repertoire development (including boosting mobility of artists and cross-border circulation of European
repertoire);

(c) professionalisation and education (e.g. skills development and capacity-building for creators and SMEs to succeed in
a highly competitive and global market);

(d) exporting European music outside Europe.

The preparatory action will be implemented on the basis of calls for proposals ((a), (b) and(c)) and a platform dialogue/
conference ((d)). It will be designed to ensure that a large variety of relevant music operators, organisations and
stakeholders across the value chain in Europe can benefit from the activities.

The preparatory action will build on and develop further the existing, albeit very limited, support for music under the
Creative Europe Programme (notably cooperation projects, platforms and prizes), which is necessary, but fails to fully
meet the needs of the sector. It will test suitable action with a view to a possible future fully f ledged funding scheme for
music within the next generation of Union programmes, which could support European diversity and talent as well as
the competitiveness of the sector in a more targeted way.

In this regard, the preparatory action will in particular include measures for surveying and mapping the funding needs
of relevant branches of the music ecosystem in the Member States in order to serve as an additional element when
defining relevant future fields of action with clear Union added value (post-2020).

_Remarks_

Cultural diversity and identification of the proper cultural mix are of strategic importance for creativity and innovation.
The cultural and creative industries (CCIs) in Europe employ more than 12 million workers, or 7,5 % of the European
workforce, and create about EUR 509 000 000 000 in added value as a result, in particular, of the contribution made
by small and micro enterprises. CCIs represent a driving force generating a competitive advantage for Europe, especially
since they provide products and services that promote evolution of the production paradigms of Industry 4.0.

This pilot project will define and test the policies and actions necessary to sustain and develop these enterprises, which,
with adequate support, can generate cross-benefits and spill-overs in all the areas and sectors these companies interface
with in achieving their business objectives.

The thrust of the pilot project involves four areas:

1. _A new model for analysing skills_

The model for recognising skills normally used in European training systems needs to be reviewed and updated to
properly include the organisational model of those enterprises, which often have little hierarchy, a broader tolerance for
risk, a different time-management approach and strong disciplinary interchange, and which are therefore not
compatible with the traditional manufacturing paradigm. This new model for analysing and identifying skills
compatible with the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering/Environment, Arts, Manufacturing) areas, seeks to
create a privileged relationship among virtuous companies, the most significant best practices, and success experiences,
in order to identify and define both the skills and the characteristics of the professional figures who work in these
contexts. In other words, the genesis and evolution of those skills must be traced back, moving beyond the more
widespread paradigm in which professional figures are codified within analytical-descriptive work processes (typical of
manufacturing organisations), to obtain job descriptions consistent with the distinctive organisational characteristics of
those companies.

More specifically, the project will be divided into the following phases:

— selecting ‘best practice’ CCIs to involve in the enquiry to formulate a skill classification model that recognises the
special nature of the various sectors (historical and artistic heritage, industry of content, ICT industries, and
materials culture, including the macro-sectors of fashion, design and the taste industry) and the regional dimensions
of the Union,

— developing a model for recognising skills,

— testing the model with a broader panel of enterprises,

— releasing the model for codifying skills and associating them with professional figures in the light of the European
framework on skills.

2. _Indications for the education system_

Nowadays, the development of creative and cultural skills is the result of a process that is neither fully structured, nor
entirely aligned with the needs for medium/long-term management of CCIs. The output generated by the skill
recognition model would pave the way for the identification of aspects and issues in the education system with
respect to the characteristics of training programmes aimed at developing skills. In fact, the development of strategic
skills for CCIs is often left to chance and individual initiative and inventiveness, or to informal processes, without a
structural approach derived from a vision that fosters a precise training policy and targeted programmes.

**CHAPTER 15 04 — CREATIVE EUROPE PROGRAMME** _(cont'd)_

_**15 04 77**_ _(cont'd)_

15 04 77 19 _(cont'd)_

The key goal of this phase of the pilot project is to perpetuate these skills through the training system, so as to prepare
more European citizens for operating effectively in the various business areas in which CCIs are involved.

The guidelines should be structured in such a way that observing the specific nature of the national and regional
education systems will guide their training programmes, from primary training to tertiary education. Efforts should be
made to improve the capability of the education system to dialogue with CCIs and promote innovative training models
(learning laboratories, creative hubs, etc.). This should accompany the formulation of guidelines to empower teachers to
promote skill-based learning, going beyond a rigid system of disciplines and favouring a holistic and multi-disciplinary
approach. Centuries of craftsmen’s traditions across Europe show the value of spending time gaining experience from
different workshops as an important part of the cultural and practical training of an aspirant master in creative
artisanship. While the German ‘Wandergeselle’ or the French ‘compagnon’ of the past were self-organised forms of
learning, they highlight the need for a structured and common European approach to identify and transfer the elusive
skills of CCIs.

3. _A new financial classification for CCIs_

Access to finance is a major obstacle to growth for many CCIs, which are generally small and often undercapitalised.
The banking and financial system is slow to classify those enterprises within traditional systems, as most of them are
founded on one prototype or single project and are heavily dependent on their products and services, on individual
talent, and on assumption of risks. Unlike companies operating in the technological sectors, CCIs find it hard to obtain
recognition of the value of their intangible assets on their balance sheets, and their investments in the development of
new talent and creative ideas do not correspond to the usual concept of R&D.

The project will define guidelines to improve CCIs’ capability to better communicate financial values associated with
intangible assets to give them fair access to lending. This would make it easier for CCIs to access guarantee systems (e.g.
Creative Europe Programme and the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI)) and other financing mechanisms.
The guidelines will be defined on the basis of a comparison of existing instruments in European Countries (e.g.
Bancopass in Italy) that those enterprises are already using to dialogue proactively with banks.

4. _Valuing and defending intellectual property produced by CCIs_

Companies that protect their intellectual activities are 22 % more productive (for the same territory, sector and size),
with revenue growth 2 % higher than the sample average. Specifically, companies that filed a patent in 2011-2013 have
a 6,5 % higher percentage of exports to total revenue, for the same territory, size and sector.

Because of the often under-structured organisation of cultural and creative industries, the registration or patenting of
innovations they are able to produce is not always a priority, thus diminishing the value of the results produced by that
innovation. It is therefore essential to study how to make those industries — especially the small and medium size
ones — more aware of the benefits in terms of stronger impact deriving from the registration or patenting of their
innovative products and services, and foster access to those opportunities, as these enterprises are often undercapitalised. Through a close tie-in with outputs emerging from a comparison of best practices and instruments
described in point 3, the project will take forward existing instruments in European countries, which enterprises use
to dialogue with banks, financial bodies and institutions, involving specific items that can enhance the values of
innovation registration or patenting.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to fund general information to citizens and covers the expenditure on centralised and
decentralised communication as well as the expenditure on Citizens’ Dialogues. The aim of local communication
activities is in particular to provide target groups with the tools to gain a better understanding of topical Union policy
issues. The aim of Citizens’ Dialogues is in particular to provide citizens with first-hand information on major Union
policy initiatives and to promote an open dialogue between citizens and the Members of the Commission with regular
attendance of representatives of other Union institutions and the Member States, in order to improve citizens’
knowledge of Union issues and to allow citizens to make their voice heard to policymakers.

For budgetary years 2018 and 2019, this appropriation should cover awareness raising and information activities on
electoral rights of citizens and the importance of European elections for the shaping of the future of Europe.

This appropriation should also promote dialogue with citizens on the future of Europe, based on the White Paper
presented by the Commission in 2017.

These activities are implemented in the Member States through:

— communication operations linked to specific annual or multiannual communication priorities laid down in a joint
declaration (in the context of implementing the Interinstitutional Agreement of 13 April 2016 between the
European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission on Better Law-Making
[(OJ L 123, 12.5.2016, p. 1),](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2016&mm=05&jj=12&type=L&nnn=123&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

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

Communication operations can be 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.

This appropriation could also serve to fund awareness raising and information activities on European Citizens’
Initiatives in cooperation with Commission Representations and local Europe Direct Centres in the Member States.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to fund general information to citizens and cover specifically the opening and
management of ‘European Public Spaces’ (EPS) in the Europe Houses that are formally hosting the EPS. The Commission
manages the logistical arrangements for the EPS for the benefit of both institutions (the European Parliament and the
Commission), including operational costs and the organisation of contracted services. The EPS must be run jointly by
the two institutions on the basis of an annual assessment report on the management and the functioning of the EPS, as
well as of a working programme for the year to come. Both these documents, which are drafted jointly by the two
institutions and constitute the fundamental elements for allocation of funds for the following year, are to be presented
to the European Parliament and the Council in time to be taken into account in the budgetary procedure.

European Public Spaces can serve as an important platform for communication with citizens. Activities of the European
Public Spaces in 2018 should focus on informing citizens about their electoral rights and the importance of European
elections for the shaping of the future of Europe. They should also encourage dialogue with citizens on the future of
Europe, based on the White Paper presented by the Commission in 2017.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover online multimedia and written information and communication tools
concerning the Union, for the purpose of providing all citizens with general information on the work of the Union
institutions, the decisions taken and the stages in the building of Europe. Online tools make it possible to gather
citizens’ questions or reactions on European issues. This is a public service task. The information covers all the Union
institutions. These tools must be made accessible to people with disabilities, in accordance with Web Accessibility
Initiative guidelines.

The main types of tool concerned are:

— the Europa site, which must constitute the main point of access to the new political and information sites putting at
the disposal of citizens information which they might need in their daily lives and which therefore must be better
structured, made more user-friendly and optimised for mobile devices,

— the internet sites, multimedia and written products of the Commission Representations in the Member States,

— online press releases, databases and other online communication information systems (including Rapid),

— complementary online channels like social media, blogs and other web 2.0 technologies,

— the Europe Direct Contact Centre (multilingual service centre, phone 00800-67891011).

This appropriation is also intended to:

— fund the restructuring of the Europa site in a more coherent way, to optimise the site for mobile devices, to focus it
on user needs and to professionalise the use of other online channels like social media, blogs and web 2.0. This
includes all types of training, coaching and consultancy services for various groups of stakeholders,

— cover the expenditure relating to hosting and licences costs associated with the Europa site,

— support the exchange of best practices, knowledge transfer and professionalisation by financing visits of digital
communication experts and practitioners,

— cover information campaigns for facilitating access to these sources of information, especially for the operation of
the Europe Direct Contact Centre, the general multilingual information service about Union matters,

— cover the expenditure relating to the production for various target groups of written publications concerning the
Union’s activities that are often distributed through a decentralised network, mainly:

_Remarks_

As specified in the Service Level Agreement between the European Parliament and the Commission, this appropriation
is intended to cover the financial contribution of the Commission to the House of European History for the operational
costs incurred by the European Parliament in respect of exhibitions, events and workshops organised which will
increase knowledge, awaken curiosity, and create opportunities to ref lect on European history by means of a modern
exhibition and documentation centre.

As the House of European History is in its first year of operation, communication is a priority in order to make the
institution known to citizens. Furthermore, the House’s cultural diplomacy role should be enhanced vis-à-vis interested
citizens from outside the Union. Additionally, the Union should be based on historical, cultural and linguistic exchange
between its diverse communities. This appropriation will enable this new institution to incorporate that diversity and
promote Union heritage, especially for the 2018 European Year of Cultural Heritage.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure for achieving the objectives established through the multiannual
‘Health’ programme for the 2014-2020 period.

The general objectives of the programme shall be to complement, support and add value to the policies of the Member
States to improve the health of Union citizens and reduce health inequalities by promoting health, encouraging
innovation in health, increasing the sustainability of health systems and protecting Union citizens from serious crossborder health threats.

The ‘Health’ programme 2014-2020 focuses on four specific objectives:

— supporting public health capacity building and contributing to innovative, efficient and sustainable health systems:
identify and develop tools and mechanisms at Union level to address shortages of resources, both human and
financial, and facilitate the voluntary uptake of innovation in public health intervention and prevention strategies,

— facilitating access to better and safer healthcare for Union citizens: increase access to medical expertise and
information for specific conditions also beyond national borders, facilitate the application of the results of
research and develop tools for the improvement of healthcare quality and patient safety through, inter alia, actions
contributing to improve health literacy,

— promoting health, including mental health, in particular among adolescents, preventing diseases and fostering
supportive environments for healthy lifestyles: identify, disseminate and promote the uptake of evidence-based and
good practices for cost-effective disease prevention and health promotion measures by addressing in particular the
key lifestyle-related risk factors with a focus on the Union added value,

— protecting citizens from serious cross-border health threats: identify and develop coherent approaches and promote
their implementation for better preparedness and coordination in health emergencies.

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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) of the
Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the

_Remarks_

Comments on implementation:

— The participatory methods could be more usefully termed ‘consensus building methods’. It would be preferable not
to list them (expert panels, gaming, Delphi methods) in order to leave the contractor more freedom to propose the
most suitable methods on the basis of its experience and expertise.

— An extended consultation exercise involving patients should be added, in the form of a survey, to gather their
opinions on scenarios once they have been identified.

— The ‘citizens’ conference’ refers to the French term ‘conférence de citoyens’, which in English translates as ‘consensus
[conference’; it is therefore proposed that that term be used instead (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consen-](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_conferences)
[sus_conferences and https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conférence_de_citoyens).](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_conferences)

— Translating the final report into various Union languages is very costly and would not add much value. In order to
keep to the budget — reduced by comparison with the original proposal — it is suggested instead that the executive
summary be translated.

— It is crucial that the work be carried out with the Commission and its expert group on rare diseases. It is proposed
that the Joint Action for Rare Diseases be added; it is co-funded by the Commission and supports the expert group
with technical and policy work on rare diseases.

The comments proposed above would translate into changes to section 2. Implementation, page 67 of the Commission
interim report on the implementation of the PP-PA in the 2017 budget, which would read as set out below:

_Implementation_

The pilot project will be carried out on the basis of a call for tenders. Rare 2030 is a two-year project using inclusive
methods to promote a continuous bottom-up approach so as to put more emphasis on interaction and to encourage a
broad take-up by patients, stakeholders and society at large.

The methodological steps and timeline for Rare 2030 will include different work packages:

— base research, including literature reviews and exploratory interviews to identify drivers of change and current and
future challenges;

— establishment of an expert / multi-stakeholder panel;

— consensus building methods will be used to define the main drivers (political, scientific, etc.) for scenario building
and will be open to large groups of stakeholders on a European level;

— an interdisciplinary and forward-looking workshop for scenario building scenarios will be used as a decisionmaking tool so as to reveal available choices and their potential consequences;

— extended patient consultation (survey) on the identified scenarios;

— a European ‘consensus’ conference (‘conférence de citoyens’) to present, discuss and review decision-making results,
engaging society to shape and take ownership of the outcomes;

— policy recommendations bringing together the results of the scenarios and conference;

— a final report, in English, outlining the recommendations and outcomes of the project and measuring its impact; the
executive summary of the report will be translated into various Union languages;

— all project activities will be carried out in close collaboration with the relevant Commission department, the
Commission expert group on rare diseases and relevant Union-funded activities in the area of rare diseases (e.g. the
Joint Action on Rare Diseases).

_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 inf luenza, 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.

This appropriation is also intended to cover the Union’s contribution to measures for eliminating obstacles to the free
movement of goods in these sectors, for veterinary support and as back-up action.

It consists in providing financial assistance:

— for the purchase, storage and formulation of foot-and-mouth antigens and of different vaccines,

— for the development of marker vaccines or tests that can distinguish between sick and vaccinated animals.

_Remarks_

Outbreaks of some animal diseases within the Union could significantly affect the operation of the internal market and
the Union’s trading relations with non-member countries. It is therefore essential for the Union to make a financial
contribution to enable serious infectious diseases — should any outbreak occur in Member States — to be eradicated as
quickly as possible by deploying Union resources for disease control.

This appropriation is intended to cover curative actions to combat pests and diseases threatening agricultural and
horticultural crops, forests, and landscape, including the spread of invasive alien species and diseases (for example the
pine wood nematode), which are becoming more frequent and are spreading, causing a severe and prolonged impact,
especially on Member States most exposed to risk, and with less economic capacity, and on the EU's outermost regions.

As shown by the results of the latest special Eurobarometer on animal welfare, an overwhelming majority of European
citizens care deeply for the welfare of farmed animals and believe that they should be better protected. The surgical
castration of young piglets without pain relief is a common and increasingly controversial pig management practice,
currently affecting 63 million animals every year. Yet practical experience from major pork supply chains within the
Union shows that viable and profitable alternatives to surgical castration exist. The pilot project will bring major
stakeholders together — slaughterhouses, food processors and retailers, and involving farmers as needed – and foster
the sharing and dissemination of techniques and best practices that eliminate the need to castrate pigs surgically.
Emphasis will be given to knowledge transfer activities concerning (a) reliable and viable boar taint detection methods,
(b) utilisation of boar- tainted carcasses during processing, and (c) marketing and promotion of meat from pigs that are
not surgically castrated. Trust building and exchange of information among all market participants in a peer-to-peer
environment will be an important communication activity. The project will deliver a practice-based guidance document
paving the way for a harmonised internal market for pigmeat obtained from animals that are not surgically castrated.

The European Declaration on Alternatives to Surgical Castration of Pigs is a voluntary and stakeholder-driven
agreement to phase out surgical castration of pigs by 2018. The declaration was signed by 33 parties representing
European farmers, the meat industry, retailers, scientists, veterinarians and animal welfare NGOs. While some Member
States have taken concrete initiatives to this end, there is currently no harmonised internal market for pig meat obtained
from pigs that have not been surgically castrated. This is hindering the progress of the Declaration. The pilot project will
accelerate the process by providing and disseminating practical solutions to commonly perceived problems among key
operators of the pork chain, while also showcasing the associated economic and societal advantages of ending the
surgical castration of pigs.

The objective of this ongoing pilot project is to put in place a tool for evaluation of pesticide exposure in the
environment at landscape level and understand the sources of contamination with the help of bees and bee products.
This approach combines environmental contaminant monitoring with animal health and food safety and security.

Honey bees come into contact with diverse environmental matrices due to their biological needs and behaviour. As a
result of their foraging behaviour bees cover large areas (up to 15 km radius). Numerous plants are visited every day to
collect nectar, secretions from sap-feeding insects, pollen and water, while plant gums are collected for propolis
production. While f lying they also come into contact with airborne particles, which stick to their body hairs, or with
substances diluted in the air. Scattered studies have been performed using honey bees and beekeeping products as
biological ‘monitoring instruments’ to measure environmental quality. Various levels of environmental monitoring with
honey bees have already been described, differing in their degree of complexity and sensitivity.

Concerned about honey bee colony losses, beekeepers, beekeeper technicians and scientists in specific areas of Europe
started analysing the pesticide content of bees and bee products. The results are often the same: bees are exposed to a
wide variety of contaminants simultaneously and consecutively. Surprisingly, on many occasions the pesticides detected
were not authorised, while in others they were found in natural areas away from the sources of contamination.

This pilot project is a citizens’ science project in which beekeepers from several (n=5-6) countries in Europe will collect
biweekly pollen samples during two beekeeping seasons. The countries will be chosen on the basis of the following
criteria: existence of regional/national activities and scientists/technicians able to do pollen sampling in the country, at
least one representative of each authorisation zone (Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market
[and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (OJ L 309, 24.11.2009, p. 1)). A protocol agreed](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2009&mm=11&jj=24&type=L&nnn=309&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
between scientists and field practitioners will be proposed that follows official methodological recommendations (i.e.
Health-B recommendations, Epilobee). In this way, the outcome of the project can be integrated into multiple stressor
models linked with bee health and risk assessment. Practitioners' work will be coordinated by scientists/technicians.
Pollen and pesticide analyses will serve to establish the botanical origin and contamination of samples respectively.
Analytical data will be put in a geospatial context with a view to gaining an insight into the possible sources and
variability of both bee food and contaminants. In specific cases, fresh honey samples may be collected in order to
understand possible contamination of honeydew. Analysis will screen for both authorised and non-authorised pesticide
and veterinary products. Additionally, the fate of the colonies used in the sampling will be examined so as to explore
potential correlations with the parameters measured. The project will last about 30 months and include two years of
sampling to cover data f luctuations.

This will allow evaluation of the implementation of European legislation in terms of pesticide application (‘Sustainable
Use Directive’), pesticide authorisation and efficiency of agro-environmental and greening measures under the common
agricultural policy.

The expected results are: (1) the development of a non-invasive environmental monitoring system, easy to use and
reproducible across Europe; (2) an increase in knowledge on environmental pollution by using environmental samplers
(honey bees); (3) the identification of areas at risk for bee health; (4) the verification of the efficacy of Union legislation
in terms of prevention of environmental and food contamination from pesticides; (5) an indication of the plant
biodiversity of the landscape throughout the year; (6) the verification of the quality of the CORINE database (or other
more detailed land use dataset available in the participating countries) for landscape-level exposure modelling.

This ongoing pilot project, with a view to becoming a preparatory action, has been successfully reviewed, an increase in
its total budget having been proposed: EUR 1 250 000 (2017-2018). The budget increase was requested by the
Commission and stakeholders in order to ensure successful implementation. The increase comes in response to the
budget cuts made during the budget negotiations concerning pilot projects and preparatory actions in 2016.

_Remarks_

Recent terrorist attacks both in Europe and elsewhere in the world have had a devastating impact on the victims.
Governments and support organisations alike are struggling to provide an effective response which ensures that the
specific needs of victims of terrorism are met immediately after an attack and in the longer term. The situation is
particularly severe for foreign victims returning to their home countries.

Difficulties in knowledge and skills development, co-ordination of responses and incorporation of victim-orientated
approaches in emergency response infrastructures all contribute to weak support mechanisms.

This pilot project aims to overcome those barriers by bringing together key operational experts, victim advocates and
organisations from around Europe to identify key priorities and issues for victims of terrorism and deliver co-ordinated
support for victims of terrorism across borders.

The centre will:

— bring together research, knowledge and skills from around the world to develop modern support mechanisms and
ensure that the Union’s future policies have a sound evidence base taken from worldwide best practices
(information, compensation and support),

— develop training courses for support personnel and ensure coordination on repatriation issues,

— develop deployment and co-ordination strategies for support in the aftermath of a terrorist attack and bring
together specialists to ensure that a victim-orientated approach is taken in emergency response settings throughout
Europe,

— develop information and information provision mechanisms for victims of terrorism,

— support the use of technologies to assist victims and provide psychosocial help.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

Refugee resettlement, typically thought of as a government-led activity, can also be sponsored by private individuals,
groups and other entities. Over the past four decades, only a handful of private sponsorship arrangements have been
put in place. This pilot project will focus on exploring and implementing private sponsorship programmes as a safe,
regular and orderly means for refugees to reach protection in the Union.

Transparent private sponsorship arrangements developed in cooperation with national, local and regional authorities
could significantly enhance refugee resettlement opportunities and ensure the availability of safe and regular routes for
refugees to reach the Union.

The pilot project will investigate the possible benefits, costs and practical implementation of private sponsorship
arrangements, with a view to making private sponsorship part of the refugee protection landscape in Europe.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will focus on increasing and strengthening the provision of foster families and assisted f lats for
unaccompanied refugee minors, with special attention being paid to 16-18-year-olds, whilst improving coordination of
related supporting stakeholders so as to put an end to their highly vulnerable position in the Union. In view of the
limited budget available, it will be implemented in a selection of Member States where the number of unaccompanied
refugee minors is the most challenging, namely Germany, Italy, Sweden and Hungary.

_**18 03 77**_ _(cont'd)_

The action will be based on three complementary focal points:

(1) The action will implement a support programme to match unaccompanied refugee minors with foster families or
place them in assisted f lats with the support of a highly specialised diagnosis and monitoring team. It will be based on
targeted dissemination campaigns, an efficient procedure for looking for and selecting families and well situated
community f lats, and continuous monitoring of all processes. Foster families will make available one room in their
homes or provide full second housing.

Foster families will be the legal representative of unaccompanied minors; they will become the go-to persons for
newcomers, offering opportunities for integrating into the community, support in managing their legal context, support
with looking for training and employment opportunities, emotional support and help with language and health issues.
Families will receive funding and have access to a round-the-clock interpreter service, emotional and personalised
support from the welfare organisations in charge of the action that have been selected on the basis of a call for tenders
or proposals. For minors aged 16-18 years old, the action will also provide care services in assisted f lats to promote
independent living; that will also be managed by a specialised support team.

(2) In addition, the action will design and develop person-centred and comprehensive software assisting children,
families and organisations involved in the above support programme. It will help to increase access for welfare
organisations, foster families and refugee minors to available resources and opportunities to improve support such as
key documentation, task monitoring, key contacts and round-the-clock personalised assistance that will be fully
adaptable to each national context. Building on existing well functioning software, the action will in particular
improve the process of personalising the software on the basis of an advanced and integrated diagnosis and assessment
of the person concerned and his/her environment and develop a sectoral observatory that is based on integrated and
updated big-data analysis. The software will be based on data collection, monitoring and evaluation of users’ needs and
circumstances and will promote the involvement of and coordination among relevant supporting public and private
services and stakeholders, thus increasing the efficiency and quality of the care system.

(3) Action will also focus on the development of complementary activities to support authorities and welfare
organisations in implementing specific foster-family and assisted-flats programmes for accommodating unaccompanied
refugee and migrant minors, whilst improving coordination of related supporting stakeholders, so as to put an end to
their highly vulnerable position in Europe. Examples of such complementary activities include: an analysis of current
context and legislation to implement foster-family programmes and/or develop assisted-f lats programmes specifically
intended for unaccompanied refugee and migrant minors; a review of good practices; proposals for improvements; the
development of a specific dissemination strategy to look for and find candidate foster families that is more successful
than current strategies; the development of a specific training programme to ensure that candidates willing to be foster
families are well trained; and, for refugee minors aged 16-18 years old, the development of a comprehensive
programme promoting independent living in assisted f lats, etc.

Expected outcomes of this ambitious and comprehensive preparatory action are: (1) a significant increase in highquality foster care support services; (2) better quality of life, greater independence and increased integration for children;
and (3) increased coordination of and more efficient support for all stakeholders. In this regard, the action will clearly
demonstrate an increase in community-based care capacity and reduce the number of refugee children in institutions,
thus demonstrating efficient resource allocation to quality services.

The general aim of this item is to reinforce the democratic functioning of the Union by providing European citizens
with the right to participate in the democratic life of the Union by way of a European citizens’ initiative (ECI).

This appropriation is intended also to fund communication campaigns to raise public awareness of ECIs.

It is also intended to fund the practical and organisational arrangements at the preparation and collection stages for
successful ECIs that have reached the one million signatures threshold, in particular costs relating to translation,

costs already incurred by ECI organisers and citizen committees previously entered in the ECI register.

This appropriation is intended for the development and improvement of the ECI IT systems, including in particular the
ECI register and the online collection software used by organisers of citizens' initiatives and allowing Union citizens to
provide for support to ECIs online.

_Remarks_

These remarks are applicable to all the budget lines in this chapter.

These appropriations will be used for the Horizon 2020 — the framework programme for research and innovation
which covers the 2014 to 2020 period, and for the completion of the previous research programmes (Seventh
Framework Programme).

Horizon 2020 will play a central role in the implementation of the Europe 2020 f lagship initiative ‘Innovation Union’
and other f lagship initiatives, notably ‘Resource-efficient Europe’, ‘An industrial policy for the globalisation era’, and ‘A
digital agenda for Europe’, as well as in the development and functioning of the European research area. Horizon 2020
shall contribute to building an economy based on knowledge and innovation across the whole Union by leveraging
sufficient additional research, development and innovation funding.

It will be carried out in order to pursue the general objectives set out in Article 179 of the Treaty on the Functioning of
the European Union, in order to contribute to the creation of a society of knowledge, based on the European Research
Area, i.e. supporting transnational cooperation at all levels throughout the Union, taking the dynamism, creativity and
the excellence of European research to the limits of knowledge, strengthening human resources for research and for
technology in Europe, quantitatively and qualitatively and research and innovation capacities in the whole of Europe
and ensuring optimum use thereof.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of emergency support operations to respond to the urgent and
exceptional needs in Member States as a result of a natural or man-made disaster, such as the sudden and massive inf lux
of third-country nationals (refugees and migrants) into their territory.

Emergency support will provide a needs-based emergency response, complementing the response of the affected
Member States, aimed at preserving life, preventing and alleviating human suffering and maintaining human dignity.
Emergency response may encompass assistance, relief and, where need be, protection operations to save and preserve
life in disasters or their immediate aftermath. This appropriation is also intended to cover the purchase and delivery of
any product or equipment needed for the implementation of emergency support operations, including the building of
homes or shelters for affected groups of people, short-term rehabilitation and reconstruction work, particularly of
facilities storage, shipment, logistic support and distribution of relief and any other action aimed at facilitating freedom
of access to the recipients of the aid.

This appropriation may be used to finance the purchase and delivery of food or any product or equipment needed for
the implementation of the emergency support operations.

This appropriation may also cover any other costs directly linked to the implementation of emergency support
operations and the cost of the measures that are essential for it 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.

Any income from financial contributions from public and private donors entered in Item 6 0 2 1 of the statement of
revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of preparatory measures to establish the conditions for Union
actions in the field of the CFSP and the adoption of the necessary legal instruments. It may cover evaluation and analysis
measures ( _ex ante_ evaluation of means, specific studies, organisation of meetings, fact-finding on the ground). In the field
of Union crisis management operations and for European Union Special Representatives (EUSRs), in particular,
preparatory measures may, inter alia, serve to assess the operational requirements for an envisaged action, to provide
for a rapid initial deployment of personnel and resources (e.g. mission expenses, purchase of equipment, pre-financing
of running and insurance costs in the start-up phase), or to take the necessary measures on the ground to prepare for
the launching of the operation. It may also cover experts supporting Union crisis management operations on specific
technical issues (e.g. identification and assessment of procurement needs) or security training for staff to be deployed to
a CFSP mission/EUSR team.

It also covers follow-up measures and audits of common foreign and security policy measures and the financing of any
expenditure on the regularisation of previously closed measures.

This appropriation is also intended to cover expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications
directly linked to the achievement of the objective of the measures coming under Items 19 03 01 01, 19 03 01 02,
19 03 01 03, 19 03 01 04 and 19 03 01 07.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and third countries, including in both cases their public
agencies, entities or natural persons, to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and
managed by the Commission on their behalf 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 point (b) of
Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will
be determined, without prejudice to Article 187(7) of the Financial Regulation, by the contribution agreement for each
operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for
each chapter.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover all the expenditure connected with the appointment of European Union Special
Representatives (EUSRs) in accordance with Article 33 of the Treaty on European Union.

EUSRs should be appointed with due regard for gender equality and gender mainstreaming policies, and the
appointment of women EUSRs should therefore be promoted.

This appropriation covers expenditure on the salaries of EUSRs and on setting up their teams and/or support structures,
including staff costs other than those relating to staff seconded by Member States or Union institutions. It also covers
the costs of any projects implemented under the direct responsibility of an EUSR.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover cooperation with third countries to advance and promote the Union and mutual
interests under the Partnership Instrument, in particular with developed and developing countries which play an
increasingly prominent role in the world affairs, including foreign policy, international economy and trade, multilateral
forums, global governance and in addressing challenges of global concern or where the Union has significant interests.
This cooperation includes measures supporting the Union’s bilateral, regional or multilateral relationships in addressing
challenges of global concern, the implementation of the international dimension of the ‘Europe 2020’ strategy, trade
and investment opportunities and public diplomacy and outreach activities.

Part of these appropriations will also be used to implement the project ‘Cooperation with northern and southern
transatlantic dimension’, which aims at increasing a broader transatlantic dialogue and cooperation involving northern
and southern Atlantic countries in order to address common global challenges. The objective is to look into the
feasibility of implementing common short- and longer term goals in fields such as economic cooperation, global
governance, development cooperation, climate change, security and energy. This preparatory action should serve to
strengthen a triangular dialogue, or even an extended Atlantic dialogue, as well as to promote the idea of a wider
Atlantic community.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and third countries, including in both cases their public
agencies, entities or natural persons, to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and
managed by the Commission on their behalf 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 point (b) of
Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will
be determined, without prejudice to Article 187(7) of the Financial Regulation, by the contribution agreement for each
operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for

logistical support from headquarters, and activities carried out by Union delegations in third countries and vis-à-vis
international organisations.

Measures carried out from headquarters:

— the European Union visitors programme (EUVP), carried out jointly by the European Parliament and the
Commission, provides some 170 participants a year, chosen by the Union delegations, with the opportunity of
experiencing contact with the Union by visiting the European Parliament and the Commission as part of a made-tomeasure individual programme of visits based on a theme,

— the production and distribution of publications on priority themes as part of an annual programme,

— the production and dissemination of audiovisual material,

— the development of information delivered via electronic media (the internet and electronic message systems),

— the organisation of visits for groups of journalists,

— the support for the information activities of opinion leaders that are consistent with the Union’s priorities,

— strategic communications, in particular in the Union neighbourhood and the Western Balkans.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will test how to counter disinformation more systematically, effectively and efficiently. An
important objective is to build Union capacity on fact-checking disinformation by upgrading the skills base of staff
through training and coaching by appointed strategic communication experts, who will then report on their monitoring
activities to headquarters, including the East StratCom task force.

_**19 06 77**_ _(cont'd)_

Therefore, the preparatory action will finance: (a) training to raise awareness of disinformation campaigns among Union
staff; (b) monitoring of disinformation campaigns both within and outside the Union; (c) data-based analysis of the
challenge and ways forward throughout Europe; (d) better output for the product of that analysis, i.e. translation and
dissemination in local languages. As disinformation campaigns target the Union and its partner countries alike, these
activities can benefit staff, according to priorities to be set, in: (1) Commission Permanent Representations in Member
States; (2) Union Delegations in Eastern Partnership countries; and (3) Union Delegations in Western Balkans countries.

The preparatory action will be jointly implemented by the Commission (Service for Foreign Policy Instruments) and the
European External Action Service.

This action will allow the Union to raise awareness, to increase capacity to anticipate, analyse and respond, to be more
efficient, to better reach out to Member States and to promote its policy objectives vis-à-vis its citizens as well as the
Eastern Neighbourhood and the Western Balkans, including in their languages.

capture information on the impact of trade agreements and the barriers for women-owned/led firms to trade; (3)
training interviewers in the selected Member States and partner countries; (4) conducting interviews and related data
quality control; (5) compiling a database; (6) drafting a report summarising the main findings; (7) drafting a model
chapter on gender in free trade agreements.

The survey will capture variables on women ownership, women in management and female employment in exporting
firms. It will be representative at Union level by firm size and export sector, with interviews across all Member States
and in selected third countries (to be defined in consultation with DG Trade).

The survey will capture trade barriers with all current trading partners of firms with additional questions on specific
trade agreements that have recently been concluded or are in the process of negotiation or renegotiation. The list of
such agreements for which more detailed information will be captured will be defined in consultation with DG Trade.

The survey will cover regulatory and procedural trade barriers, existing information gaps as well as the firms’
recommendations for improvements. These will be captured by product and partner country and can as such be
attributed to specific free trade agreements and, depending on the type of issue reported, to specific provisions therein.

The data collected will be novel and unique. This pilot project reflects strong demand from trade negotiators (including
at the World Trade Organisation), who would like to better include the gender dimension in trade policy-making but
lack the data and evidence base to do so.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the operating costs of the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency
incurred as a result of the implementation of the international dimension of higher education of the ‘Erasmus+’
programme (Heading 4) entrusted to the Agency, under Chapter 21 02. The mandate of the Agency includes managing
the outstanding actions from the 2007-2013 programming period for the Youth, Tempus and Erasmus Mundus
programmes in which DCI beneficiaries are involved.

The Agency will also receive an annual contribution to be financed from Article 21 02 09 appropriations. This will
allow the continuation of the programme Intra-ACP Mobility aiming to facilitate the student mobility in Africa, which
was financed until 2013 through the 10th European Development Fund.

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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential
candidates for participating in Union 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
points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation.

The establishment plan of the Agency is set out in Annex ‘Staff’ to this Section.

_Remarks_

The primary objective of the Union’s development policy is poverty reduction, as laid down in the Treaty. The European
Consensus on Development provides the general policy framework, guidance and the focus to direct implementation of
Regulation (EU) No 233/2014.

These appropriations are intended to cover activities concerning the pursuit of poverty reduction, sustainable economic,
social and environmental development and consolidating and supporting democracy, the rule of law, good governance,
human rights and the relevant principles of international law, including those ref lected in the Millennium Development
Goals and in the emerging post-2015 international development framework. Synergies with other Union external
instruments will be sought where appropriate, without any loss of focus on the above basic objectives.

In principle, 100 % of expenditure in the geographic programmes and at least 95 % of expenditure in the thematic
programmes and 90 % of expenditure in the pan-African programme must conform to the OECD/DAC criteria for
Official Development Assistance.

As a general rule, at least 20 % of appropriations should be used for basic social services and secondary education.
Moreover, the DCI should contribute to the objective of addressing at least 20 % of the Union budget to a low carbon
and climate-resilient society.

_Remarks_

The purpose of development cooperation under this article is primarily its contribution to support the promotion of
democracy, good governance, equality, respect for human rights and for the rule of law, and fostering sustainable
development and economic integration, as well as to achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

The Commission must continue to report annually on the benchmark used in the past for the assistance to developing
countries that is to be allocated to social infrastructure and services, recognising that the Union contribution must be
seen as part of overall donor support for the social sectors and that a degree of f lexibility must be the norm. Moreover,
the Commission will endeavour to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its assistance under the DCI will be dedicated to
basic social services, with a focus on health and education, and to secondary education, this being an average across all
geographical areas, and recognising that here too a degree of f lexibility must be the norm, for example where
exceptional assistance is involved. This appropriation is intended to cover cooperation schemes in developing countries,
territories and regions in Latin America in order to:

— contribute to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in the region,

— support trade union, non-governmental organisations and local initiatives to monitor the impact to the investments
on the national economy, particularly respect for labour, environmental, social and human rights standards,

— support gender equality, through supporting actions to combat harmful traditional practices such as child marriage,
and women empowerment,

— foster the development of civil society,

— combat poverty and social exclusion and promote social cohesion,

— contribute to improve social standards with focus on education, including education and vocational training for
employment, and health, and to the improvement of social protection schemes,

— promote a more favourable climate for economic expansion and enhanced productive sector, encourage the transfer
of know-how, promote contact and collaboration between business players bi-regionally,

— promote private sector development, incl. a SME-friendly business climate via i.e. legal property rights, reducing
unnecessary administrative burden, improving access to credit, improving associations of small and medium-sized
enterprises,

— support efforts towards food security and combat malnutrition,

— support regional integration; in Central America, foster the region’s development via enhanced benefits derived
from the EU-Central America association agreement,

— promote the sustainable use of natural resources, including water, and the combating of climate change (mitigation
and adaptation),

— support efforts for improving good governance and help consolidate democracy, human rights and the rule of law,

— promote policy reform particularly in the area of justice and security and support related actions to enhance
development of countries and regions.

Where assistance is delivered through budget support, the Commission will support efforts of partner countries to
develop parliamentary oversight and audit capacities and transparency.

Appropriations under this article are subject to evaluations that will include aspects of input activities and chain of
results (output, outcome, impact). The findings of the evaluations will be used in the formulation of subsequent
measures financed with these appropriations.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and third countries, including in both cases their public
agencies, entities or natural persons, to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and
managed by the Commission on their behalf 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 point (b) of
Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will
be determined, without prejudice to Article 187(7) of the Financial Regulation, by the contribution agreement for each
operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for
each chapter and may be complemented by contributions for Union trust funds.

When and where governance reform efforts of a meaningful nature and genuine democratisation processes exist,
providing support for them will be a priority. Similarly, allocations to border management and anti-drugs programmes
will depend on the outlook for achieving significant results. Cooperation with civil society will be a major element of
cooperation. Increasingly, collaboration with Member States’ agencies to implement these programmes will be
considered as well as blending with resources from international financing institutions.

**CHAPTER 21 02 — DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION INSTRUMENT (DCI)** _(cont'd)_

_**21 02 06**_ _(cont'd)_

South Africa's growth trajectory has not absorbed labour at the required scale, and the lack of access to the labour
market and to wage income has hampered efforts to reduce poverty, unemployment and inequality. The unemployment
rate stands at approximately 27 % of the overall labour force, and at more than 50 % for the youth (15-24 years old).
There were also 14 million people not in education employment or training (NEETs), which represents 39 % of the
working age population. South Africa’s mismatch between the demand for semi-skilled or skilled labour and the
oversupply of unskilled or low-skilled workers is a key factor in the high unemployment. Moreover, lack of coordination
in the planning and implementation of the South African National System of Innovation among various state
authorities and the insufficient level of linkage between academia and research on the one hand and industry on the
other are main impediments that prevent South Africa from addressing poverty reduction and inclusive growth.
Inclusive growth is also hampered by dysfunctionality at local government level and municipalities' inability to assure
stable and quality basic services, which are not a conducive environment for local economic development and job
creation.

Part of this appropriation is expected to contribute to: (a) promoting employability in South Africa through improving
relevant education opportunities, as well as employment and matching opportunities through enhancing skills
development and placement assistance; (b) increasing access to technical and vocational education and training as well
as its quality and relevance for the labour market; and (c) strengthening work integrated learning.

Part of this appropriation will be used to build on lessons learnt from previous experiences to extract greater social and
economic benefits from science, technology and innovation for all South Africans.

Part of this appropriation is also expected to contribute to improving local authorities' capacity to provide access to
essential services and thereby to address poverty and inequality through enhanced public finance management,
governance, public participation and innovation. The support could focus on the use of innovation as a tool to
enhance capacity to deliver basic services.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and third countries, including in both cases their public
agencies, entities or natural persons, to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and
managed by the Commission on their behalf 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 point (b) of

This appropriation is intended to cover poverty reduction and fostering sustainable development as a component under
the ‘Global Public Goods and Challenges’ programme. The objective of the programme is to support inclusive
sustainable development by addressing the main global public goods and challenges in a f lexible and cross-cutting
manner. The main areas of action include environment and climate change, sustainable energy, human development
(including health, education, gender, equality, identity, employment, skills, social protection, social inclusion, and
economic-development-related aspects such as growth, jobs, trade and private-sector engagement), food and nutrition
security, sustainable agriculture, and migration and asylum. This thematic programme will also enable a swift response
to be made to unforeseen events and global crises affecting the poorest populations. By promoting synergies across the
various sectors, the ‘Global Public Goods and Challenges’ programme will reduce fragmentation of Union development
cooperation and increase coherence and complementarity with other Union programmes and instruments. At least
50 % of the funds, prior to the use of the markers based on OECD methodology (Rio markers), should serve for climate
action and environment-related objectives.

In particular, the ‘Global Public Goods and Challenges’ programme in the area of migration and asylum aims to enhance
the governance of migration in and by developing countries, placing particular attention on maximising the positive
impact and minimising the negative impact of migration and mobility on development in low- and middle-income
countries of origin and destination. In this sense, the programme will support the implementation of the migration
related Sustainable Development Goals, including in particular target 10.7 on facilitating orderly, safe regular and
responsible migration and mobility. Initiatives launched will contribute to the implementation of Communication from
the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the
Committee of the Regions of 13 May 2015 entitled ‘A European Agenda on Migration’ (COM(2015) 240 final),
including notably the priorities set out in Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the
European Council, the Council and the European Investment Bank of 7 June 2016 on establishing a new Partnership
Framework with third countries under the European Agenda on Migration (COM(2016) 385 final). Protection and
promotion of the human rights of migrants, including access to services such as health, and support for the Union
commitments to ensure policy coherence for development on migration will be pursued as cross-cutting objectives.
Activities funded under this budget line must be in line with the primary objective of the Union’s development policy,
which is poverty reduction.

The programme will focus on initiatives at global level as well as multi-regional level (e.g. to support cooperation along
south-south or south-north migratory routes). A limited number of national projects to support new cooperation
activities with priority countries for the Union’s external migration policy may also be launched.

2015 was a strategic milestone for global governance, poverty eradication and sustainable development. It saw a series
of landmark international summits and conferences over the course of the year (the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk
Reduction 2015-2030, the Addis Ababa Action Agenda, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the COP
21 Paris Agreement under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) which have collectively
recast the way the international community, including the Union, will work to achieve sustainable development and
poverty eradication for many years.

The Third United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (known as Habitat III, held in
Quito, Ecuador, in October 2016) was among the first UN Conferences to take place following adoption of the 2030
Agenda.

thus gave considerable impetus to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda, in particular Sustainable Development Goal
(SDG) 11 but also a number of other goals and associated targets with a preeminent urban dimension, and the COP 21
decisions.

The New Urban Agenda makes concrete suggestions on how to address the challenges raised by urbanisation and urban
demography and turn them into opportunities that will support sustainable development in its economic, social and
environmental dimensions.

The aim is to focus on a major challenge encountered by cities in developing countries: urban governance. More
specifically the pilot project will make it possible to use expertise of the cities in the Union in related fields for capacity
building purposes in order to address financial, legal and urban planning components in an integrated manner.

It will seek to:

— provide concrete examples of financial, legal and urban planning shortcomings in selected developing countries and
cities and identify gaps and needs,

— facilitate cooperation between cities in developing countries and cities in the Union with sound experience in urban
development and provide capacity building activities in different areas, such as urban mobility, public spaces and
housing, with an emphasis on establishing an adequate framework to use innovative means of funding urban
development (such as Union blending),

— be based on these experiences, deliver recommendations on how implementation of the urban dimension of the
SDGs and the New Urban Agenda can be operationalised in developing countries and their cities while using Union
experience.

The project will build on the lessons of twinning cities in the Union and in developing countries. It will use the
expertise of city platforms and networks in the Union that develop pragmatic solutions for integrated and sustainable
urban development.

The pilot project will provide the Commission with the necessary information for the next programming period.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

This preparatory action will fund, and work with, both private and non-governmental organisations which develop
sustainable programmes to support micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in developing countries in the
following ways:

— national and regional entrepreneurship competitions,

— access to capital and appropriate financial services in different ways, ranging from capacity strengthening of
financial intermediaries to the provision of capital,

— use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) as a tool for achieving financial inclusion of the poor,

— legal and financial support for businesses moving from informality into the formal private sector,

— programmes for supporting youth start-ups,

— promoting female entrepreneurship,

— access to equity loans, credits and micro-credits,

— business training for potential entrepreneurs,

— financing for social businesses.

MSMEs, which form the backbone of all market economies, face much heavier regulatory burdens in developing
countries than within the Union, and most of them resort to operating in the informal economy, which is wracked with
volatility and where they are denied legal protection, labour rights and access to finance.

Concerted action in this area has the potential to create hundreds of thousands of new jobs for local communities in
developing countries, creating a vibrant climate where private initiatives can further f lourish, expand and generate
wealth.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

Existing research and development (R&D) funding mechanisms dedicated to neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) tend to
take a siloed approach: gaps persist between the different phases of the R&D cycle and linkages with fringe issues such
as Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) and education programmes are not addressed as part of a multi-sector
approach. Likewise, the need for equally important incremental research, which can help to significantly improve the
acceptability of treatments and diagnoses to populations affected by NTDs, tends to be overlooked.

With the objective of addressing some of the R&D gaps for NTDs, this preparatory action will contribute to or cofund
an alternative model that relies on an innovative and coordinated approach to address persistent R&D gaps stemming
from market failures. The model will identify a specific part of the gap in R&D for NTDs that disproportionately affect
developing countries, and will provide crucial elements for the development of high-quality, accessible, affordable and
suitable health solutions.

This action will build on the work carried out under previous preparatory actions and pilot projects on global health
research and innovation and support efforts to address identified and recognised gaps in line with the WHO process in
[connection with the report available at http://www.who.int/phi/cewg_report/en/ and with the list of demonstration](http://www.who.int/phi/cewg_report/en/)
projects identified and preselected by the Global Technical Consultative Meeting on Health R & D Demonstration
Projects.

In doing so, while seeking to improve acceptability, this action will contribute to meeting at least one of the following
objectives:

— recommending effective and efficient mechanisms for coordination with other current initiatives,

— proposing innovative ways of decoupling the price of final products from R&D costs,

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

In view of the lack of doctors in Togo, people in rural communities are left to their fate and, for almost as long as they
live, will never have an opportunity to see a doctor. Aimes-Afrique seeks to eliminate what are real shortcomings in
Togo's health system. Accordingly, Aimes-Afrique members who are doctors have decided to do what they have done in
the past, in so far as has been possible with the means at their disposal, and provide free medical care in the countryside
in all five regions of Togo (Maritime, Plateaux, Centrale, Kara and Savannes).

Humanitarian operations are to be carried out in all five regions of the country, but are organised on a region-specific
basis. Each region contains health districts in which healthcare personnel from the various rural clinics will be given
initial and continuing training. Examinations will be carried out locally in villages. Operations will be performed in
suitable facilities as near as possible to the communities concerned.

The objective is to make hospital care accessible to poor and vulnerable rural communities by providing free medical
and surgical treatment and ensuring that local healthcare personnel are well trained.

Free medical and surgical treatment is intended to benefit all people in all regions of Togo, regardless of age, gender or
religion.

The amount specified breaks down as follows:

— investment in medical equipment,

— purchase of ambulances, including transport,

— purchase of all-wheel-drive buses and a lorry, including transport,

— purchase of medical tents and their contents, including transport,

— missions involving doctors: operating and consumption costs.

_Geographical aspect_

Doctors will be on mission in all five regions of Togo (Maritime, Plateaux, Centrale, Kara and Savannes), i.e. across the
entire country, and will be working with local healthcare personnel in rural villages. That is why medical tents are also
needed. Unless other arrangements are possible, operations will be performed in regional hospitals in provincial
capitals. The project will therefore complement the Union's work in provincial capitals across the country.

This involves sending physicians on assignment in rural regions of Togo, making it possible for people in communities
that currently have no access to any qualified health care to be treated by specialists. Aimes-Afrique sets up teams
comprising at least seven highly qualified Togolese physicians with different specialisms who, each year, carry out a 14day assignment in each of Togo's five regions, examining and, as far as possible, immediately treating some 5 000
people free of charge during each mission and operating on about 500 patients. In total, accordingly, this benefits at
least 25 000 people in each region. Action PiT-Togohilfe e.V. is doing everything it can to back the project with funding
and donations in kind.

instruments for a pro-active development aid policy. It remains essential to make support manpower available to
provide services in priority areas, in particular schooling, health care and technical assistance.

Accordingly, the Union could encourage young Europeans to become volunteers for periods of 6 months to a year; they
would be hosted by public-sector development aid bodies, NGOs and approved civic-service structures. The Union
budget contribution would take the form of grants to cover travel and accommodation expenses. The EU Aid
Volunteers scheme can serve as a model, the two differences being that assignments will focus on development and
the target audience age range is 18 to 26.

To best cater for funding needs for this preparatory action, the focus should be on Heading 4, which is the heading most
suited to the Development Cooperation Instrument reaching its objectives.

impact of public services and international cooperation projects carried out by local authorities in Guatemala. It aims to:

— promote citizen participation, institutional transparency and gender mainstreaming as key elements for the
identification and formulation of local initiatives,

— provide access for local authorities to the most suitable set of indicators and mechanisms for accessing data in order
to measure the impact of the actions implemented in their territory,

— develop a reference framework with regard to the level of efficiency of development politics at local level,

— harmonise local initiatives and national strategic plans in accordance with the Commission’s Multiannual Indicative
Programme for Guatemala by standardising impact indicators.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the assistance in addressing global and trans-regional threats and emerging
threats, defined in Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 230/2014 establishing an instrument contributing to stability and

peace.

It is intended to cover actions aiming to help safeguard countries and populations against risks either of an intentional,
accidental or natural origin. This may, inter alia, include:

— strengthening the capacity of the competent civilian authorities involved in the development and enforcement of
effective control of the trafficking in chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear materials or agents (including the
equipment for their production, or delivery or effective border controls), including through the installation of
modern logistical evaluation and control equipment. The actions relate to natural and industrial disasters as well as
criminal activities,

_TITLE 21 — INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT_

**CHAPTER 21 05 — INSTRUMENT CONTRIBUTING TO STABILITY AND PEACE (ICSP) — GLOBAL AND TRANS-REGIONAL THREATS**
**AND EMERGING THREATS** _(cont'd)_

_**21 05 01**_ _(cont'd)_

— the development of the legal framework and institutional capacities for the establishment and enforcement of
effective export controls on dual-use goods, including measures of regional cooperation,

— the development of effective civilian disaster preparedness, emergency planning, crisis response, and capabilities for
clean-up measures in relation to possible major environmental incidents in this field,

— the promotion of civilian research activities as an alternative to defence-related research, and support for the
retraining and alternative employment of scientists and engineers having formerly been employed in weaponsrelated areas,

— support for measures to enhance safety practice related to civilian facilities where sensitive chemical, biological,
radiological or nuclear materials or agents are stored, or are handled in the context of civilian research programmes,

— support, within the framework of Union cooperation policies and their objectives, for the establishment of civil
infrastructure and relevant civilian studies necessary for the dismantlement, remediation or conversion of weaponsrelated facilities and sites where these are declared as no longer belonging to a defence programme,

Other measures in the field of global and trans-regional threats will cover:

— strengthening the capacity of law enforcement and judicial and civil authorities involved in the fight against
terrorism,

— countering radicalisation, violent extremism and organised crime, including illicit trafficking in human beings,
drugs, firearms and explosive materials, cybercrime, falsified medicine and in the effective control of illegal trade
and transit; exchanging expertise and best practices on countering radicalisation and violent extremism with partner
countries in regions where extremism is on the rise, such as South Asia; also addressing global and trans-regional
effects of climate change with a potentially destabilising impact, and including the promotion of biosafety and
biosecurity of facilities handling dangerous microbes,

— support for measures to address threats to international transport, and critical infrastructure, including passenger
and freight traffic, energy operations and energy distribution, electronic information and communication networks,

— ensuring an adequate response to major threats to public health, such as pandemics with a potential transnational
impact.

Such measures may be adopted under this instrument in the context of stable conditions, where they aim to address
specific global and trans-regional threats having a destabilising effect, and only to the extent that an adequate and
effective response cannot be provided under related Union instruments for external assistance.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and third countries, including in both cases their public
agencies, entities or natural persons, to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and
managed by the Commission on their behalf 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 point (b) of
Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will
be determined, without prejudice to Article 187(7) of the Financial Regulation, by the contribution agreement for each
operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for
each chapter and may be complemented by contributions for Union trust funds.

_Remarks_

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 consistency, complementarity and
aid and development effectiveness.

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 and the national policies of the
Member States in the sphere of development cooperation need to complement and reinforce each other and this cannot
work without coordination. Article 210 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union calls on the
Commission to act as coordinator of the Member States’ and the Union’s development policies and of action in
development cooperation.

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. This appropriation covers various forms of action:

_TITLE 21 — INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT_

**CHAPTER 21 08 — DEVELOPMENT AND COOPERATION WORLDWIDE** _(cont'd)_

_**21 08 02**_ _(cont'd)_

_Action A — Coordination at European and international levels:_

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

— support, analyses and coordination activities in the priority areas of development policy (including budget support,
public finance management, domestic revenue mobilisation), aid and development effectiveness (including joint
programming/joint implementation) and financing for development,

— meetings of experts and exchanges between the Commission, Member States, and other international actors (United
States of America, emerging donors, etc.) and preparation of and participation to international fora such as the
Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation or those under the policy stream financing for
development, means of implementation, Agenda 2030, new Consensus,

— research, communication, consultation, and evaluation services, including for technical assistance,

— monitoring of policies and operations in the course of implementation,

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

— 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 Commission’s membership fees to the international organisations and networks,

— 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 its Member
States in the international cooperation and development field and to raise public awareness of related issues. Every
activity financed pursuant to this action 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 the international cooperation and development aid fields and the activities which it conducts in partnership with its Member
States and other international institutions,

— an ‘awareness-raising’ component, covering public opinion in the Union and in partner countries.

COMMISSION

_TITLE 21 — INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT_

**CHAPTER 21 08 — DEVELOPMENT AND COOPERATION WORLDWIDE** _(cont'd)_

_**21 08 02**_ _(cont'd)_

These activities consist mainly, though not exclusively, of financial support for audio-visual and online publications,
communication via social media, seminars, trainings and events as applied to development, the production of
information material, the development of information systems, networks of Member States and prizes for journalism
in the field of development.

These activities are directed at the general public and are implemented through public and private sector partners and
stakeholders and through a network of Member States, the Commission Representations in the Member States and
Union delegations in partner countries.

This appropriation is moreover 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 include other aspects of the
Union’s external relations, particularly in relation to the future of the Union’s external policies:

— addressing the public perception of external assistance, building on the results and the evaluation of the activities
deployed by the Union institutions and Member States in the context of European Year for Development 2015, the
Joint Declaration of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on the Legacy of the European Year
for Development 2015, and on the adoption of the Agenda 2030 by the United Nations in September 2015. The
objective is to make clear that external assistance is an integral part of what the Union does for the benefit both of
the population of partner countries and of European taxpayers and to raise awareness of the fact that the Union is
delivering tangible results on behalf of Union citizens to fight poverty and support sustainable growth worldwide,

— organising key events highlighting the Union’s leading role in international development, most notably the annual
edition of the European Development Days (EDD). This major event has become one of the main events in the
Commission agenda in terms of external relations. It brings together development advocates, decision-makers and
practitioners. Each year, EDD serves as a platform for policy brainstorming and forward-looking recommendations
ahead of key international summits. It highlights the importance of the Union’s role not only as the world’s largest
development assistance provider, but also as a leader in the international development policy debates,

— the organisation of visits for groups of journalists and other target groups.

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 also intended to cover:

— expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the
Commission under ad hoc service contracts for the mutual benefit of the Commission and beneficiaries,

— expenditure on printing, translation, studies, meetings of experts, information and the purchase of information
material directly linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover administrative costs directly linked to the implementation of the Instrument for
Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA), the phasing out of pre-accession assistance and TAIEX, in particular:

— expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the
Commission under ad hoc service contracts for the mutual benefit of the Commission and beneficiaries,

— expenditure on external personnel at headquarters (contract staff, seconded national experts or agency staff), limited
to EUR 5 146 149. This estimate is based on a provisional annual unit cost per man-year, of which an estimated
95 % is accounted for by the remuneration of the personnel concerned and 5 % by the additional cost of training,
meetings, missions, information technology (IT) and telecommunications relating to the external personnel financed
from this appropriation,

— expenditure on external personnel in Union delegations (contract staff, local staff or seconded national experts) for
the purposes of devolved programme management in Union delegations in third countries or for internalisation of
tasks of phased-out technical assistance offices, as well as in Commission Post-Accession Transitions Teams
remaining in new Member States during the phasing-out period (contract staff, agency staff) working on tasks
directly related to completion of accession programmes. In both cases, it also covers additional logistical and
infrastructure costs, such as the cost of training, meetings, missions and renting of accommodation directly resulting
from the presence in Union delegation of external personnel remunerated from the appropriations entered against
this item,

— expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information systems, awareness-raising, training, preparation and
exchange of lessons learnt and best practices, as well as publications activities and any other administrative or
technical assistance directly linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme,

— research activities on relevant issues and the dissemination thereof,

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will support the International Commission on Missing Persons (ICMP) Western Balkans
Programme for 2018 and 2019 in assisting governments in the search for and identification of missing persons from
the conf licts in the former Yugoslavia through enhanced regional cooperation.

Despite the progress achieved so far and the significant efforts and active commitment of the Union, resolving the fate
of the missing from the conf licts in the former Yugoslavia remains a burning issue. Cooperation at regional level
between the countries concerned has not been sufficiently explored.

This action will help authorities address the large number of NN (unidentified bodies) cases in countries in the region
and the interrelated issue of misidentification, which occurred prior to the ICMP’s introduction of DNA identification in
2001.

Following the signing of cooperation agreements between the ICMP and Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo and
Montenegro respectively in 2016, and the conclusion of an agreement with Serbia in 2017, the action will establish a
database of active missing person cases from the conf licts in the former Yugoslavia and facilitate regular meetings with
regional authorities to discuss them. This will enable the transparent management of data on missing persons and a
cooperative approach at regional level in order to reduce the number of unresolved missing person cases. Collection of
additional genetic references from families of missing persons in the region, supported by outreach and campaigning
efforts, will help the authorities to identify NN cases and take corrective action where misidentifications are demonstrated to have occurred. The action will also strengthen regional cooperation among associations of families of the
missing so they can be involved in the process and jointly ensure government accountability on this matter.

The main activities to be undertaken under this regional action are:

(1) establishing a database of active missing person cases from conf licts in the former Yugoslavia, and facilitating
regular meetings with regional authorities to discuss cases;

(2) providing and managing a small grant to the body responsible for regional coordination of associations of families
of missing persons from the former Yugoslavia for the purposes of lobbying to encourage regional governments
and authorities to search for and identify the missing;

(3) providing assistance to national authorities in affected countries in the Western Balkans to excavate and examine
mortal remains from clandestine graves;

(4) providing continued access to the ICMP’s DNA laboratory standing capacity (sampling and extraction of DNA
profiles from excavated cases, and DNA matching of genetic reference profiles and post mortem profiles);

(5) engaging the national authorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo and Serbia that are responsible for
searching for missing persons (government commissions on missing persons) in a regional policy dialogue that will
develop sustainable and effective initiatives for resolving the related issues of NN cases and misidentifications
resulting from the use of traditional visual recognition methods.

The added value of this action will be in ensuring that the issue of missing persons remains a rule-of-law priority in the
Western Balkan region. It is indeed important to remember the regional dimension of the wars in the former
Yugoslavia, with tens of thousands of missing persons now living in neighbouring countries and with many of those
who died during the conf licts having been buried in neighbouring countries.

ICMP activities financed at national level, at this point in time mainly in Bosnia and Herzegovina, include: technical
support for locating and excavating clandestine graves; access to DNA testing and matching; support for local
stakeholders to complete the review of unidentified remains in mortuaries through a systematic process involving
additional blood collection from relatives of the missing in order to identify NN cases in mortuary facilities in Bosnia
and Herzegovina, increase the identification rate and significantly reduce the number of unidentified remains in storage.

Activities carried out under this regional action are separate from and complementary to the activities that are currently
taking place at national level. It is essential to note that, while separate from each other, there are important synergies
between the regional and national projects that will help ensure that goals are achieved under both actions.

In this process it will also be important that investigations are done in a manner that respects the needs of families and
the long-term societal need to provide a historically accurate accounting of atrocities that can counterbalance
unsubstantiated and politically motivated narratives. To this end, the regional dimension will be very important in
strengthening cooperation among associations of families in the countries concerned.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

At present, there is a dearth of factual knowledge among journalists in the Union and in European Neighbourhood
Policy (ENP) countries regarding relations between the Union and its neighbours, which leads to risks of untrustworthy
or irrelevant reporting by those working on or in the European Neighbourhood. Often, the reporting tools used were
developed over a century ago, but are not suited to today’s demands. Building capacities among relevant journalists is all
the more pressing, given the frequently fragile situations in the European Union’s neighbourhood.

Consequently, Union and ENP countries’ publics and decision-makers need knowledge-based, trustworthy and coherent
reporting on the Union’s neighbouring countries and regions. Poor-quality journalism can hinder the success of the
ENP, while — conversely — knowledge-based and coherent journalism can contribute to its impact and positive
visibility.

This pilot project will cover a knowledge-building programme at the College of Europe Natolin Campus for European
and ENP countries’ journalists working on the European Union’s neighbourhood, encompassing a classroom
educational component, study visits in ENP countries and training in the field. As part of the classroom educational
component, the pilot project will develop and provide a modular academic education programme for Union and ENP
countries’ journalists, targeting media workers at the beginning of their career and mid-career journalists. It will consist
of a series of short (two to three days) and intensive in situ academic classes (for which an appropriate certificate or
diploma will be provided) while providing participants with digital tools and communication channels to remain in
contact between classes. The programme will also encompass on-site study visits in ENP countries and field training so
as to ensure comprehensive and practical skill development and liaison with key societal actors on the ground. Such a
methodology will ensure that professionally active journalists will be permitted by their media outlets to take part in
this modular education programme (while allowing their managements to benefit from the journalists’ enhanced
knowledge acquired through the project). In addition, such an approach will establish and strengthen professional
networks of Union and ENP South and East journalists specialising in in-depth sectoral and cooperation policies, thus
building a shared network of information sources and broadening the spectrum of reliable information available in the
Union and in ENP countries. Geographical balance with regard to participating journalists (between and within Union
and the ENP countries) will be ensured during the pilot project. In this geographically balanced group, three bestperforming participants (based on objective test and exam scores) from the EU, ENP South and ENP East, respectively,
will be granted one-year scholarships to study at Natolin Campus on its advanced master’s programme in order to
specialise in ENP-related issues.

Such academic classes can only be delivered by a highly acclaimed higher-education institution already specialising in
the ENP and the Union’s wider neighbourhoods, and an institution that already successfully serves as the link between
the Union and its neighbourhoods, which is the Natolin Campus of the College of Europe. Therefore, this pilot project
will be implemented by the College of Europe Natolin Campus, which has grown to specialise both in Union studies and
in ENP issues, thanks to its specialisation, location (e.g. proximity to the Frontex Agency), organised field visits in many
countries in the Union’s neighbourhood, including ENP-South and ENP-East, its cutting-edge academic activities carried
out by its own European Neighbourhood Policy Chair and the European Civilisation Chair, the ‘E-Platform for
Neighbourhood’ project currently being implemented, and its long-standing vast network of professional and
academic links in the Union, ENP-East and ENP-South.

The College of Europe Natolin Campus is a unique hub of accumulated expertise with experience and access to a wide
network of the highest-level academics and practitioners (including in the Union’s neighbouring countries thanks to
long-standing academic and educational cooperation) specialising in Union institutions and policies, European integration, the Union’s relations with external actors, including all ENP aspects, and Europe’s neighbouring countries
themselves.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will build on successful practices under the Union-funded preparatory action to support Arab
Spring countries to implement asset recovery. That action focused on supporting Egypt, Libya and Tunisia in furthering
asset recovery cases resulting from the 2011 revolutions that toppled their former leaders, in particular with respect to
bilateral judicial cooperation with the Member States and other countries. This has resulted in, among other
achievements, strengthened coordination between Arab Spring countries and the Member States on asset recovery,
and in facilitating the recovery and return of over USD 300 million. In the light of the above, officials from the Member
States and high-level officials of the original beneficiary states (including the Prime Minister of Libya, the ProsecutorGeneral of Egypt and the Minister for State Property for Tunisia) have indicated a strong interest in seeing a broader,
more permanent Union programme to implement asset recovery which includes the activities referred to above:

(1) strengthening regional platforms for dialogue, exchange of best practices and operational cooperation (particularly
with Union counterparts) on asset recovery;

(2) strengthening legislation on seizure and confiscation of assets linked to corruption;

(3) specialised case mentoring for asset recovery practitioners so as to produce better operational practices in tracing
and recovering stolen assets;

(4) technical advice to ensure that recovered stolen assets are directed to high-priority development needs in national
health and education sectors so as to help further stabilise Union neighbours;

(5) technical advice to ensure greater operational harmonisation with both the Union and Financial Action Task Force
standards;

(6) dissemination of evidence-based research to enhance widespread knowledge of how assets are corruptly diverted
and stolen, and to educate policymakers on how development is impeded by delays in the recovery of assets; and

(7) strengthening civil society’s role in prioritising the final destination of recovered assets.

It should be noted that the planned DG DEVCO Global Project to Combat Money Laundering and the Financing of
Terrorism (CRIS number: 038875) focuses principally on anti-money-laundering and combating the financing of
terrorism, whereas this action focuses principally on asset recovery and on continuing the work of assisting beneficiary
countries in actual high-level cases linked to acts of corruption and other forms of organised criminal activity.
Accordingly, this action is distinct in nature, but will serve as a useful complement to the DG DEVCO project and
strengthen its impact.

22 04 77 07 _(cont'd)_

Given the value of asset recovery work in contributing to stabilisation among Union neighbours, the ownership taken
up by national counterparts and the results achieved thus far through the expertise provided through the preliminary
preparatory action, this action will be highly relevant to Tunisia and Libya, as well as to other European Neighbourhood
Policy South partner countries (Jordan and Lebanon). Egypt will be involved in region-wide activities. The action, while
distinct in scope from other pending or planned projects, will also serve to reinforce and complement such efforts to
assist these countries in combating corruption, money laundering, the financing of terrorism and other forms of
organised crime. This action will also directly support existing Union and United Nations sanctions regimes affecting
countries in the Middle East and the North Africa region.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover support expenditure directly linked to the achievement of the objectives of the
humanitarian aid policy. This covers, inter alia:

— expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the
Commission under ad hoc service contracts,

— fees and reimbursable expenses incurred through service contracts to undertake audits and evaluations of partners
and actions of the Directorate-General for European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO),

— expenditure on studies, information systems and publications, on public awareness and information campaigns, and
on any other measure highlighting the Union character of the aid,

— expenditure on external personnel at headquarters (contract staff, seconded national experts or agency staff) limited
to EUR 1 800 000. This personnel is intended to take over the tasks that were entrusted to external contractors
handling the administration of individual experts and to manage programmes in third countries. That amount,
based on an estimated annual cost per person/year, is intended to cover the remuneration of the external personnel
in question and training, meetings, missions, information technology (IT) expenditure and telecommunications
expenditure related to their tasks,

— expenditure related to the purchase and maintenance of security, specialised IT and communication tools and
technical services necessary for the establishment and functioning of the Emergency Response Centre. This centre
(‘crisis room’) will be operational on a 24-hour basis and responsible for the coordination of the Union’s civilian
disaster response, in particular to ensure full consistency and efficient cooperation between humanitarian aid and
civil protection,

— expenditure on the development, maintenance, operation and support of information systems, intended for internal
use or to improve coordination between the Commission and other institutions, national administrations, agencies,
non-governmental organisations, other partners in humanitarian aid, and Directorate-General for European Civil
Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO) experts in the field.

Any income from financial contributions from Member States and third countries, including in both cases their public
agencies, entities or natural persons, to certain external aid projects or programmes financed by the Union and
managed by the Commission on their behalf 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 point (b) of
Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation. The amounts entered on the line for administrative support expenditure will
be determined, without prejudice to Article 187(7) of the Financial Regulation, by the contribution agreement for each
operational programme with an average not exceeding 4 % of the contributions for the corresponding programme for
each chapter.

This appropriation covers administrative expenditure under Articles 23 02 01 and 23 02 02.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of humanitarian and food assistance operations of a humanitarian
nature to help people in countries outside the Union who are the victims of conf licts or disasters, both natural and

humanitarian needs that such situations give rise to. It will be carried out in accordance with the rules on humanitarian
aid under Regulation (EC) No 1257/96.

The aid and assistance is granted to victims without discrimination or adverse distinction on the grounds of race, ethnic
origin, religion, disability, sex, age, nationality or political affiliation. That aid and assistance is provided in accordance

This appropriation is also intended to cover the purchase and delivery of any product or equipment needed for the
implementation of humanitarian aid operations, including the building of homes or shelters for affected groups of
people, short-term rehabilitation and reconstruction work, particularly of infrastructure and facilities, the costs
associated with external, expatriate or local staff, storage, international or national shipment, logistic support and
distribution of relief and any other action aimed at facilitating freedom of access to the recipients of the aid.

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.

_Remarks_

Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) threatens lives in humanitarian contexts: in conf lict, where rape is routinely
used as a weapon of war; and in situations of natural disaster, which studies suggest increased risks of SGBV.

The Union and its Member States together are the world’s leading humanitarian aid donor. In 2014, the Commission’s
Directorate-General for European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations developed and implemented a
Gender-Age Marker, showing that in 2015 89 % of Union-funded humanitarian action integrated gender and age
strongly or to some extent. Yet the efficient delivery of Union aid and capacity-building for the Union’s humanitarian
partners face growing challenges, such as restrictions on reproductive care funding by third-party donors and an
increase in vulnerable populations due to ongoing and new conf licts. Significant information gaps remain on what
constitutes good evidence-based practices and compliance with applicable legal frameworks.

This pilot project will study how sexual violence in humanitarian settings affects women, girls, boys and men; how
many persons are affected; what forms of medical and psychosocial assistance are offered to victims/survivors in five
conf lict areas and two situations of natural disaster; the compliance of this assistance with international law; and what
best practices exists and should be reproduced.

It will (a) determine the forms of sexual violence most prevalent in humanitarian settings, including armed conf lict and
natural disasters, affecting women, girls, boys and men; (b) estimate its extent in terms of occurrences and/or numbers
of victims/survivors; (c) assess the specific medical and psychosocial services offered to victims/survivors, and any gaps
in protection, in particular with regard to gender; (d) investigate whether WHO protocols are adhered to; (e) study
whether international humanitarian law (in armed conf lict settings) and international human rights law are adhered to;
and (f) identify and disseminate best practice in delivering effective aid to women, girls, boys and men who are victims/
survivors of sexual violence in humanitarian settings.

This pilot project will be carried out by a consortium of relevant institutions, humanitarian actors and relevant civil
society organisations. It will produce recommendations and contribute to increasing the capacity of humanitarian actors
to adequately respond to sexual violence in humanitarian settings, and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Union
aid.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on actions in the field of civil protection. It aims at supporting,
coordinating and supplementing the actions of the Member States, EFTA States, acceding countries, candidate countries
and potential candidates having signed an appropriate agreement with the Union in the field of preparedness and
prevention with regard to natural and man-made disasters, including acts of terrorism and technological, radiological or
environmental accidents, marine pollution and acute health emergencies, occurring in third countries. It covers in
particular the mobilisation of experts to assess prevention and preparedness needs in third countries in the event of
disasters, and the basic logistical support for such experts.

It also aims at providing financial support for certain actions covered under Articles 21 and 22 of Decision No 1313/
2013/EU to candidate countries not participating in the Union Civil Protection Mechanism and countries under the
European Neighbourhood Policy to the extent that they complement funding available from the Instrument for PreAccession Assistance and the European Neighbourhood Instrument.

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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates
for participating in Union 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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) of the Financial

_Remarks_

The creation of a network of European hubs, with existing infrastructures specialised in different components of civil
protection and crisis management interventions, could help to prepare the Union, its Member States and various
stakeholders (including DG ECHO) for tackling new challenges in the field of civil protection and crisis management.

Emerging new risks can lead to global crises (for instance, population displacement or new types of terrorist attacks).
Hence there is a need for:

(1) identifying existing gaps for which new scenarios should be designed to react to global crisis situations more
quickly, more effectively and with deeper coordination between European actors. Experience sharing and
promotion of best practices at European level will also make risk prevention more effective;

(2) existing infrastructure and projects to be used for enhanced capacity building and pooling for interventions in and
outside Europe. This could involve geographical and technical specialisation of the hubs, depending on the type of
risk, e.g. forest fires, health assistance, shelters and containers for humanitarian aid;

human dignity, and to strengthening the capacity and resilience of vulnerable or disaster-affected communities in third
countries, particularly by means of disaster preparedness, disaster risk reduction and by enhancing the link between
relief, rehabilitation and development. That objective shall be attained through the added value of joint contributions of
EU Aid Volunteers, expressing the Union’s values and solidarity with people in need and visibly promoting a sense of
Union citizenship.

This appropriation is intended to cover the following measures and items of expenditure:

— the certification of sending and hosting organisations,

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover all expenditure resulting from the mandate of the members of the OLAF
Supervisory Committee, namely:

— allowances granted to the members of the Supervisory Committee for the time dedicated to the fulfilment of their
functions, as well as their travel expenses and ancillary costs,

— costs incurred by members of the Supervisory Committee officially representing the Supervisory Committee,

— all operating expenditure, such as the cost of purchase of equipment, stationery and office supplies and expenditure
arising from communications and telecommunications (postal charges, telephone, fax and telegraph charges),
documentation and library expenditure, the purchase of books and subscriptions to information media,

— travel, subsistence and incidental expenses of experts, invited by the members of the Supervisory Committee to
participate in study groups and working parties, and the cost of organising such meetings where they are not
covered by the existing infrastructure (in the headquarters of the institutions or external offices),

— expenditure on specialised studies and consultations contracted out to highly qualified experts (individuals or firms)
where the members of the Supervisory Committee are unable to entrust such studies to suitable staff of the Office.

Moreover, for the sake of transparency, the resources made available to the secretariat of the Supervisory Committee in
PMO’s budget (Article 26 01 21) can be identified. Based on a secretariat of seven permanent posts and an allocation
for one member of contract staff, the appropriations for the operation of the secretariat of the Supervisory Committee
would come to around EUR 1 000 000. This amount covers expenditure on staff costs, training, missions, internal
meetings, buildings and IT.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

This pilot project will specifically simplify and promote ECIs through the use of IT platforms and other electronic tools,
such as applications that are compatible with mobile devices, in order to simplify what is a very important agendasetting instrument. In this regard, the reliable collection of signatures and safe access to and use of IT platforms and/or
electronic tools should be possible via electronic identification and authentication services (e-IDAS). The use of these
digital tools should enable citizens to receive and exchange information about existing or potential ECIs, to actively
participate in discussions and to launch and/or support initiatives, in particular including the possibility of signing an
ECI. These tools will also make it possible for the Commission to interact efficiently with ECI promoters, exchanging
information and providing them with technical guidance in order to contribute to the success of the initiatives, while
allowing substantial economic and administrative savings.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will develop the potential and enhance the active and passive use of open data by linking data
(linked open data) for European public administrations. The concept of open data is becoming a reference for the
dissemination of data produced by public administrations. ‘Knowledge is open if anyone is free to access, use, modify
and share it — subject, at most, to measures that preserve provenance and openness.’ Open data refers to data that is
legally open (i.e. data published under an open licence with conditions for re-use limited to attribution) and technically
open (i.e. machine-readable and non-proprietary where possible). In practice, this means that the data is free to access
for everybody, and the file format and its content are not restricted to a particular non-open source software tool. In
recent years, several initiatives to disseminate open data have been launched at national and European level, including
the Open Data Portal of the Publications Office of the European Union.

Linked open data is a method of publishing structured open data so that it can be interlinked and become more useful
through semantic queries. It builds upon standard web technologies, but, rather than using them to serve web pages for
human readers, it extends them to share information in a way that can be read automatically by computers. This enables
data from different sources and different policy areas to be connected and queried.

This preparatory action will boost linked open data in European public administrations by developing the implementation of linked open data techniques and infrastructure. The aim is to identify, assess and support the exploitation of
the potential of linked open data for European public administrations and, consequently, facilitate the generation of new
data, information and knowledge.

The action will target open data produced and released by European public administrations (notably the European data
portal) and focus on:

— enabling a core set of open data to be identified for linking according to ISA semantic guidelines. e.g. migration data,

— providing the technical solutions to generate targeted queries to be used by European public administrations, e.g. a
search engine for linked open data on migration,

— providing the capability to define indicators and contextualise them, e.g. performance indicators for migration
policies v statistics on migration,

— promoting the culture and potential of linked open data.

_Legal basis_

Preparatory action within the meaning of Article 54(2) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 966/2012 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012 on the financial rules applicable to the general budget of the Union
[and repealing Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 (OJ L 298, 26.10.2012, p. 1).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2012&mm=10&jj=26&type=L&nnn=298&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

_Remarks_

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 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, 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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential
candidates for participating in Union 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
points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation.

_Remarks_

The programme on interoperability solutions and common frameworks for European public administrations, businesses
and citizens (ISA [2] Programme) is the successor of the ISA programme (established by Decision No 922/2009/EC) that
ended in December 2015.

ISA [2] Programme aims to implement a holistic approach on interoperability in the Union and to facilitate the efficient
and effective electronic cross-border or cross-sector interaction between European public administrations as well as
between them and citizens and businesses. It shall identify, develop and operate interoperability solutions (frameworks,
common services and generic tools) implementing the Union’s policies.

The programme will be implemented in close cooperation and coordination with Member States and concerned
Commission services via projects and accompanying measures (awareness raising, promotion, community building,
etc.).

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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

The discovery of a severe vulnerability in the OpenSSL cryptography software library in April 2014 drew broader
attention to the need for understanding how governance of code relates to the quality of code and code review. Both the
general public and the Union institutions regularly use and depend on free and open-source software — from end-user
devices up to server systems. Therefore the need for coordinated efforts to maintain a reasonable level of security and
protection of users is a recognised and repeated demand from both citizens and the European Parliament itself,
regardless of how the software is licensed and whether it is maintained by software companies or by volunteers.

Vulnerabilities in software libraries that are by design meant to be used in many locations are especially important. The
pilot project proposed going beyond the commendable efforts of CERT-EU to not only warn the Union institutions,
bodies and agencies and the general public about upcoming threats, but also to pro-actively work together with
software developer communities to aid and contribute to the discovery of security issues in software which carries
essential information infrastructure functions. This work should be conducted by using the Debian Social Contract as a
reference in terms of effectiveness and trust and in accordance with established procedures on reasonable disclosure.

The preparatory action will build on and extend what the pilot project has produced as regards:

— creating an inventory of free software and open standards in use within Union institutions,

— developing a set of reliable criteria for a software and projects auditing framework,

— establishing an infrastructure to encourage developer communities to aid and contribute to the discovery of
security-relevant bugs,

— developing and enhancing best practices with regard to mitigation of security threats by conducting and promoting
code reviews,

— exploring further incentives to improve IT security such as ‘bug bounty’ approaches,

— conducting code reviews of critical open-source software.

As pointed out in the Commission’s assessment, during the pilot project preceding this preparatory action, the idea of
creating a ‘bug bounty’ approach — incentivising the discovery of security-relevant issues in software used by the
institutions through financial rewards — had already been considered, but was disregarded in the end because of
insufficient provisions. However, such approaches are very common and successful in the industry and would allow
broader involvement of the security community in the common objective of ensuring a more secure IT infrastructure.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

This preparatory action will continue support for the implementation of secure electronic communications within the
Union institutions.

A way of attaining significantly more secure electronic communications would be to apply state-of-the-art encryption
technology to the institutions’ email services. The project will involve developing Union encryption standards which are
guaranteed not to be compromised or weakened by third-country governments.

The current project has reached the recommendations stage. Recommendations have been presented both at working
group level and to DG DIGIT management.

With reference to existing remarks in the 2017 budget, the current project has reached the recommendations stage.

The goal of the preparatory action is to continue to support the IT services of the Council, Council Presidency,
Commission and Parliament in implementing the systems needed for secure communications by Commissioners,
Members of Parliament, officials, administrators and staff members of all institutions involved in Union decisionmaking.

The preparatory action will allow continuation of the implementation phase of the preceding pilot project. In the longer
term, the action could encompass both written (email and text messages) and vocal (fixed and mobile) electronic
communications.

The way forward will be to follow up on the recommendations made on the basis of the pilot project. There will also be
a move towards a more operational / service delivery mode of piloting. It may need to be handed over to an operational
team. The first step under the preparatory action will therefore have to be the designation of that team, which will
require coordination between the Union institutions. The second step will be the further, and broader, implementation
of piloting at a more operational level.

_Remarks_

This preparatory action will identify, develop, implement and promote the use of data analytics techniques in the
European and national policymaking process.

The use of data analytics (big data, data and text mining, business intelligence, data analytics) is becoming more and
more instrumental in the European decision-making process. Initiatives launched in recent years by the Commission,
such as its Regulatory Fitness and Performance (REFIT) programme — which ensures that Union legislation delivers
results for citizens and businesses effectively, efficiently and at minimum cost — and the better regulation agenda — on
designing and evaluating Union policies and laws transparently, with evidence, and backed up by the views of citizens
and stakeholders — openly promote interaction with citizens and call for the use of evidence in policymaking.

This action will cover the development, implementation and promotion of data analytics solutions for evidence-based
policymaking, with potential application at national and European level. In particular:

— developing and implementing selected text mining solutions for analysing feedback from citizens on policies and
initiatives (e.g. the Doris tool developed by the Commission),

— developing and implementing selected data mining solutions for assessing data in specific policy areas and adding
intelligence,

— integrating those solutions in consultation processes (e.g. Doris for analysing the Better Regulation feedback; text
mining solutions for Union Survey, the open-source survey solution developed by the Commission),

— developing and implementing data analytics tools for monitoring the performance of specific policies and
contextualising them (e.g. key performance indicators for Union-funded programmes contextualised against the
key social/economic indicators in that specific area).

The development of such data analytics (in the broad sense) solutions is in its early stage and requires dedicated actions
to be embedded in the regular European decision-making process. The potential benefits at European level and the reusability for Member States are expected to be relevant.

_Remarks_

Since expenditure on staff and buildings is included in the appropriations entered in Items XX 01 01 01 and
XX 01 03 01 and Article 26 01 23, the Commission contribution, 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 that 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.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

The action is unique in placing islands at the forefront of climate change action through the new framework of the
Global Covenant of Mayors. Union islands and island authorities around the world, having a closer understanding of the
climate change challenges for island territories and having pushed for an ambitious global climate agreement, will join
forces, through this action, to lead efforts to achieve the 1,5 °C climate target. Union islands will work closely and in
solidarity with island authorities beyond the Union with a view to overall capacity building and, more concretely, to
sharing experiences, to transferring knowledge and know-how on sustainable energy and climate planning, to sharing
best examples of climate change mitigation and adaptation and to sharing their knowledge of innovative Union
financial instruments in support of sustainable energy investments. The action will involve analysis of existing good
practices for sustainable energy and climate planning implemented on islands and the development of innovative
integrated island strategies that would properly address energy access and energy poverty, climate change mitigation and
greenhouse gas emission reduction, as well as adaptation of island territories to climate change. These strategies will be
in line with the 2030 climate and energy framework and with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and
the ‘Sustainable Energy for All’ objectives. Finally, provision will be made for transparent monitoring, reporting and
verification of greenhouse gas emissions in line with UNFCCC requirements.

This pilot project will promote energy efficiency in the Ionian-Adriatic macro-region through the funding of regional/
local initiatives supporting energy renovation of public or private residential buildings. Based on the premise that the
Ionian-Adriatic macro-region faces a high risk of energy poverty (well over 50%), the pilot project will seek to address
the problem by providing pilot home retrofitting schemes for representative private residential buildings in selected
parts of the macro-region. Given the possibility of using renewable energy, of which the macro-region has a huge
potential supply, as well as state-of-the-art renovation techniques, the project will reduce energy consumption, tackle
energy poverty and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The project will provide a blueprint for making building
renovations easier and for increasing renewable energy share in the macro-region. The project outcomes will be
assessed at regional level in order to secure efficient use of structural funds and additional funding in order to promote
larger-scale energy efficiency programmes rolled out by national or regional authorities.

_Remarks_

The pilot project will set up a platform of best practices and technical advice, based on the experience and needs of the
new actors in the energy market, thus helping the Commission to stimulate the development of technical standards for
distributed ledgers.

To do this, the following activities will be carried out during the project:

— analysis of the existing distributed ledger based on blockchain technology, the aim being to understand the
problems and the solutions found during setup and use of a distributed ledger in real cases,

— analysis of the needs of all energy market stakeholders (institutionalised energy suppliers, prosumer organisations,
energy community organisations, etc.); a survey in 2016 by the German Energy Agency (Dena) found that 52 % of
German energy actors were already implementing or planning blockchain activities; the analysis will focus on those
activities so as to understand the needs of the actors concerned; a focus group involving prosumer associations will
also be set up,

— organising information events on distributed ledgers based on blockchain technology,

— setting up a network for stakeholders involved in the new energy market; it will be a tool for disseminating and
sharing best practices and technical advice.

_Remarks_

The recovery of the Union from the economic crisis and the effective implementation of its key goals of strong growth
and global competitiveness, including through sustainable reindustrialisation and modernisation of the Union economy,
must be founded on long-term environmental, economic and social sustainability. In the context of the ambitious
climate commitments of the Union and its transition to a low-emission economy based on the circular model, its coal
and carbon-intensive regions with a high proportion of workers in carbon-dependent sectors need targeted support to
effectively contribute to this strategic transformation.

According to Eurostat figures, coal and lignite mining alone currently account for over 300 000 direct jobs in the
Union. These are concentrated in a limited number of regions, where their impact on the local economy and social
cohesion is the principal driver. In the face of the challenges of technological progress, global competition and
demanding environmental and climate policies, the ability of those regions to contribute to and benefit from the
Union’s transition to a low-emission circular economy has a crucial bearing on the overall success of the Union. This
has been acknowledged by the Commission, which in its communication on ‘Clean Energy for All Europeans’
committed to ‘examine how to better support the transition in coal and carbon-intensive regions’.

This preparatory action will ensure the effectiveness of these support efforts, their long-term sustainability, and
ultimately the success of the transformation of the Union as a whole and its global leadership, by establishing a
platform which should enable the Commission to:

— identify the Union’s coal and carbon-intensive regions in transition and their smart specialisations,

— build a dedicated practical toolkit with (a) best practices, (b) existing support instruments identifying best synergies,
and (c) information exchange with and between regions,

— establish stakeholder fora and provide tools for intra-regional exchanges, including on comprehensive roadmaps for
low-emission reindustrialisation and reskilling needs,

— identify on-the-ground bottlenecks and streamline support to new technologies and clean-coal innovation development and uptake, including carbon capture and storage, carbon capture and utilisation and coal gasification,

_Remarks_

With its 2011 Low Carbon Economy Roadmap, the Commission developed a vision to largely decarbonise the
European economy and set out specific steps to achieve that goal. The Union has confirmed that commitment, most
prominently with the adoption of the Paris Agreement. While recognising that Member States have the sole prerogative
to determine their national energy mix, this inevitably puts the focus on coal-mining regions, which have to deal with
multiple challenges in connection with this transition, brought about by political decisions, economic realities and
public aspirations. The Commission is therefore launching a dedicated dialogue in the form of a coal platform for
regions facing this transition.

Activities: Produce a series of toolkits to integrate the results of coal platform meetings in order to support participants
in developing local transition strategies in the following fields:

(a) establishing a governance process at local level: How to start an inclusive dialogue with a view to developing a
common transition vision with local and social partners, civil society, industrial and economic actors and academia,
including information on best practices and lessons learnt;

(b) access to funding: Guidance on existing Union funds and their possible combination and technical assistance for
project aggregation to support the local transition strategies developed;

(c) employment and growth perspectives: How to support the labour market transition process (including reskilling
and retraining as well as targeted support for vulnerable groups) with a regional concept for economic
development to attract future-proof, local jobs;

_TITLE 32 — ENERGY_

**CHAPTER 32 04 — HORIZON 2020 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION RELATED TO ENERGY** _(cont'd)_

_Remarks_

These remarks are applicable to all the budget lines in this chapter.

This appropriation will be used for Horizon 2020 — the framework programme for research and innovation, which
covers the 2014 to 2020 period, and for the completion of the previous research programmes (seventh framework
programme and preceding framework programmes) and the completion of the ‘Intelligent energy — Europe’
programmes (prior to 2014).

Horizon 2020 activities, in particular those addressed under the societal challenge ‘Secure, clean and efficient energy’,
but also relevant parts of other sections of the programme, including ‘Access to finance’, implemented in line with the
Union’s energy policy framework and in particular the Energy Union strategy (Communication from the Commission
to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee, the Committee of the Regions
and the European Investment Bank of 25 February 2015 on a framework strategy for a resilient Energy Union with a
forward-looking climate change policy (COM(2015) 80 final)) as well as the European strategic energy technology plan
(SET-Plan) and the communication on energy technologies and innovation, will contribute primarily to the Europe
2020 f lagship initiative ‘Innovation Union’ and other f lagship initiatives, notably ‘Resource-efficient Europe’, ‘An
industrial policy for the globalisation era’ and ‘A digital agenda for Europe’, as well as in the development and
functioning of the European Research Area. Horizon 2020 will contribute to building an economy based on knowledge
and innovation across the whole Union by leveraging sufficient additional research, development and innovation
funding.

Horizon 2020 will be carried out in order to pursue the general objectives described in Article 179 of the Treaty on the
Functioning of the European Union, in order to contribute to the creation of a society of knowledge, based on the
European Research Area, i.e. supporting transnational cooperation at all levels throughout the Union, taking the
dynamism, creativity and the excellence of European research to the limits of knowledge, strengthening human
resources for research and for technology in Europe, quantitatively and qualitatively, and research and innovation
capacities in the whole of Europe and ensuring optimum use thereof.

In Horizon 2020, gender equality is addressed as a cross-cutting issue in order to rectify imbalances between women
and men and to integrate a gender dimension in research and innovation content. Particular account will be taken of the
need to step up efforts to enhance the participation at all levels, including decision making, of women in research and
innovation.

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.

This appropriation will be used in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1290/2013 of the European Parliament and of
the Council of 11 December 2013 laying down the rules for the participation and dissemination in ‘Horizon 2020 —
the Framework Programme For Research And Innovation (2014-2020)’ and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1906/2006
[(OJ L 347, 20.12.2013, p. 81).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2013&mm=12&jj=20&type=L&nnn=347&pppp=0081&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this chapter. 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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

_**32 04 03**_ _**Societal challenges**_

_Remarks_

This priority of Horizon 2020 responds directly to the policy priorities and societal challenges identified in the Europe
2020 strategy. Those activities will be implemented using a challenge-based approach which brings together resources
and knowledge across different fields, technologies and disciplines. The activities will cover the full cycle from research
to market, with a new focus on innovation-related activities such as piloting, demonstration, test beds, support for
public procurement, design, end-user-driven innovation, social innovation and market take-up of innovations. The
activities will support directly the corresponding sectoral policy competences at Union level.

This appropriation is intended to support the implementation of the societal challenge ‘Secure, clean and efficient
energy’ of the Horizon 2020 priorities, in line with the Union’s energy policy and in particular the Energy Union
strategy (Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and
Social Committee, the Committee of the Regions and the European Investment Bank of 25 February 2015 on a
framework strategy for a resilient Energy Union with a forward-looking climate change policy (COM(2015) 80 final)),

the Committee of the Regions and the European Investment Bank of 2 May 2013 ‘Energy Technologies and Innovation’
(COM(2013) 253 final). These initiatives are primarily addressing energy efficiency, wind, solar, bioenergy, carbon
capture and storage, smart cities and electricity grids. In recognition of their important contribution to future
sustainable energy systems, at least 85 % of the budget appropriations over the period 2014-2020 will be allocated to
the renewable and end-use energy efficiency policy areas, including smart grids and energy storage.

Support to market uptake measures will be part of the Horizon 2020 programme to build capacity, improve
governance and overcome market barriers so that energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions can be rolled out,
thus contributing to improving energy security in the Union. Part of the appropriations in the overall energy challenge
budget will therefore be spent on market uptake activities for existing renewable and energy efficiency technologies
within the programme, carried out by a dedicated management structure, and will include support for sustainable
energy policy implementation, capacity building and mobilisation of financing for investment, in line with what has
been done to date.

_TITLE 32 — ENERGY_

**CHAPTER 32 05 — ITER** _(cont'd)_

_Remarks_

The ITER project aims to demonstrate fusion as a viable and sustainable source of energy by building and operating an
experimental fusion reactor as a major step towards the creation of prototype reactors for fusion power stations that are
safe, sustainable, environmentally responsible and economically viable. It will contribute to the Europe 2020 strategy
and in particular to its Innovation Union f lagship initiative as the mobilisation of European high-tech industries, which
are involved in the construction of ITER, should provide the Union with a global competitive advantage in this
promising sector.

The project brings together seven parties: the Union, China, India, Japan, South Korea, Russia and the United States.

enshrined in the Treaty on European Union, in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, in the Charter of
Fundamental Rights of the European Union, and in the international human rights conventions to which the Union has
acceded, are promoted, protected and effectively implemented.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the
preparatory action.

The EU Framework for National Roma Integration Strategies calls on Member States to include robust monitoring
mechanisms and involve civil society, including Roma organisations, in strategy implementation and monitoring.
Capacity-building is needed to prepare local Roma civil society organisations for helping to plan and implement

programmes.

The preparatory action will build on the pilot project supported by the European Parliament in the 2014 and 2015
budgets, which was designed to contribute to capacity creation and building for local Roma civil society and provide a
mechanism to monitor Roma integration and inclusion, especially by producing and circulating ‘shadow reports’.
‘Shadow reports’ should enable civil society coalitions to supplement the reports submitted by Member States on
implementation of their strategies or present alternative information and figures. Such reports could add local
knowledge to national and European policy processes and reflect on the real social impact of government measures.
Monitoring will focus on the local implementation of strategies in the four priority anti-discrimination and gender
equality areas, employment, education, housing and health, and would also provide information on the level of civil
society involvement, use of Union funds, and mainstreaming of Roma inclusion measures.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot

The extent of physical and sexual violence experienced by women across the European Union requires renewed
attention from policymakers. The economic and social crisis, with its consequences of unemployment, job insecurity,
wage cuts and reduction of social benefits, inter alia, has contributed dramatically to the increase in domestic violence,
in prostitution and migration.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot
project.

This pilot project is designed to bring together legal experts, national authorities and international experts, in particular
from the OECD.

The aim of the initiative is to explore the different purposes of letterbox companies, but also to address more general
questions relating to abuses in registrations and cross-border operations of companies. In this context, legal solutions
and standards based on company law could be proposed in order to ensure a level playing field regardless of the nature
of the undertaking, so that future Union legislation on company law can benefit from the work carried out under the
pilot project. It will also be useful to test the feasibility of Union action to identify and prevent the loopholes for
corporate tax avoidance based on national or Union company law without undermining the current work on the
Accounting Directive.

_Remarks_

Empowering civil society organisations, movements and individuals is key to a truly democratic Union and its values as
enshrined in the Treaties and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. This preparatory action will
create a Union fund for awareness raising and legal assistance to individuals and civil society organisations litigating
democracy, rule of law and fundamental rights violations based on the outcome of a requested feasibility study. This
feasibility study should include an overview of the current obstacles facing individuals and NGOs wishing to exercise
their rights regarding democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights through litigation. The fund will work closely
with and build upon the work of the Agency for Fundamental Rights.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure for achieving the objectives established through the multiannual
consumer programme for the years 2014-2020. The aim of the programme is to ensure a high level of consumer
protection and to empower consumers in the heart of the internal market within the framework of an overall strategy
for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, by contributing to the protection of the health, safety, legal and economic
interests of consumers, as well as to the promotion of their right to information, education and to organise themselves
in order to safeguard their interests, supporting the integration of such consumer interests into other policy areas, as
well as to increase customers’ knowledge of their fundamental rights and their trust in the market and public authorities
and to facilitate the complaints and dispute resolution mechanisms. The programme complements, supports and
monitors the policies of Member States.

**CHAPTER 33 04 — CONSUMER PROGRAMME** _(cont'd)_

_**33 04 01**_ _(cont'd)_

This general objective shall be pursued through the following four specific objectives:

— safety: to consolidate and enhance product safety through effective market surveillance, in particular in the Digital
Single Market, throughout the Union. Since 2016, the Rapid Alert System for dangerous non-food products has
facilitated information exchange and cooperation between Member States, with over 20 000 alerts concerning
dangerous products registered so far. The feedback ratio of reports of other authorities to notifications indicating
‘serious risk’ has also significantly increased, which indicates a higher level of cooperation between authorities,

— information and education and support to consumer organisations: to improve consumers’ education, information
and awareness of their rights and empowerment regarding consumer policy, to develop the evidence base for
consumer policy and to provide support for consumer organisations, also taking into account the specific needs of
vulnerable consumers. With approximately one third of the budget allocated to European Consumer Centres (ECCs),
the number of customer contacts with ECCs and visits to ECCs’ websites continues to increase each year, with
111 563 contacts and over 4,6 million website visits in 2016. Consumer Champion and Consumer Classroom
initiatives — this is an interactive collaborative website for teachers to promote consumer education in secondary
schools — are gaining in popularity, too, with over one million unique visits and over 32 000 registered users,
18 652 of whom are teachers,

— rights and redress: to develop and reinforce consumer rights, in particular through smart regulatory action, and to
improve access to simple, efficient, expedient and low-cost redress, including alternative dispute resolution.

According to the Consumer Conditions Scoreboard, over half of Union consumers (52 %) agree that it is easy to
settle disputes with retailers and service providers through out-of-court bodies. Since mid-February 2016 the new
Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform has registered more than 258 registered Alternative Dispute Resolution
Entities from 24 Member States. It enables consumers and traders to settle online disputes about domestic and
cross-border online purchases without going to court. The platform is designed to boost people’s trust in online
shopping. In its first year, over 24 000 consumer complaints were lodged on the platform. In addition, awarenessraising campaigns on the ODR platform in 2016 resulted in over 1,5 million online visits,

— enforcement: to support enforcement of consumer rights by strengthening cooperation between national
enforcement bodies and by supporting consumers with advice. In 2015, cooperation between Consumer Protection
Cooperation (CPC) authorities resulted in compliance checks on 735 commercial websites; irregularities were found
in 436 cases (63 %). As of October 2016, 353 of them had been corrected. Provision has been made for new
powers for consumer authorities, which would allow for closer coordination of enforcement actions when harmful
practices affect a large majority of European consumers.

The programme also takes into account new societal challenges which have grown in importance in recent years. They
include: the increased complexity of consumer decision-making, the need to move towards more sustainable patterns of
consumption, the opportunities and threats that digitalisation brings, an increase in social exclusion and the number of
vulnerable consumers, and an ageing population.

_**33 04 01**_ _(cont'd)_

The outcome of implementation of the consumer programme could be indirectly traced in the Consumer Conditions
Index, which shows significant improvements, at Union level, in consumer perceptions in 2016 compared to 2014. The
largest increases are in knowledge and trust (about 4 %), compliance and enforcement of customer protection (about
3 %), as well as complaints and dispute resolutions (about 2 %).

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, those 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 points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) 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.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential
candidates for participating in Union 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
points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation.

**CHAPTER 34 02 — CLIMATE ACTION AT UNION AND INTERNATIONAL LEVEL** _(cont'd)_

_**34 02 01**_ _(cont'd)_

The following priorities will be taken into account:

— ensuring the implementation of the Union’s commitments under the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations
Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC),

— developing new policies and further implementation of the existing ‘Climate and Energy’ package, the achievement
of the 20/20/20 climate and energy targets of the Europe 2020 strategy and the communication from the
Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the
Committee of the Regions of 22 January 2014 ‘A policy framework for climate and energy in the period from 2020
to 2030’ (COM(2014) 15 final) supporting the transition towards a low carbon and climate-resilient economy and
society.

The measures financed by LIFE may be implemented through action grants, operating grants, financial instruments,
procurement procedures or any other interventions that are needed (Articles 17, 18, 21 and 22 of Regulation (EU) No
1293/2013) including:

— cooperation with Eurocontrol on implementation of Union emissions trading system in aviation,

— the costs of development, maintenance, operation and support (hardware, software and services) of policy support
systems, in particular but not exclusively the Union Single Registry, Union Transaction Log and the ozone-depleting
substances (ODS) and f luorinated gases monitoring system.

At least 81 % of the budgetary resources for the LIFE programme shall be allocated to projects supported by the way of
action grants or, where appropriate, financial instruments (Article 17(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1293/2013).

Cooperation with relevant international organisations and their institutions and bodies shall be possible where needed
for the purpose of achieving the climate action objectives.

enforcement of policy and legislation in the area of climate change adaptation. This includes the monitoring of
mainstreaming across policy areas by developing, testing and demonstrating policy or management approaches, best
practices, solutions for climate change adaptation including, where appropriate, ecosystem-based approaches, improving
the knowledge base of effective climate change adaptation, enhancing its capacity to apply in practice, facilitating the
development and implementation of integrated approaches of strategies and action plans to adapt to the impact of
climate change at local, regional or national level as well as contributing to the development and demonstration of
innovative technologies, systems, methods and instruments for being replicated, transferred or mainstreamed, taking
into account the following priorities:

— developing new policies and further implementation of the existing ‘Climate and Energy’ package, the achievement
of the 20/20/20 climate and energy targets of the Europe 2020 strategy, the communication from the Commission
to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the
Regions of 22 January 2014 ‘A policy framework for climate and energy in the period from 2020 to 2030’
(COM(2014) 15 final) and the communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the
European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions of 16 April 2013 ‘An EU Strategy on
adaptation to climate change’ (COM(2013) 216 final) supporting the transition towards a low carbon and climateresilient economy and society,

— 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,

— developing innovative support mechanisms to fully exploit the potential of new technologies to reduce losses
caused by climate-change-related events, such as severe drought, f looding and extreme climate events, as well as to
develop the Union’s capacity for disaster prevention and response,

— supporting the development of ‘climate proofing’ tools, risk based assessments of programmes and measures to
enhance adaptive capacity and resilience to climate change support and ‘climate tracking’ methodologies to monitor
climate-related expenditure under the mainstreaming objective ‘to increase the proportion of climate mainstreaming
to at least 20 % of the future total Union budget in 2014-2020’, with contribution from different policies.

The measures financed by LIFE may be implemented through action grants, operating grants, financial instruments,
procurement procedures or any other interventions that are needed (Articles 17, 18, 21 and 22 of Regulation (EU) No
1293/2013).

At least 81 % of the budgetary resources for the LIFE programme shall be allocated to projects supported by way of
action grants or, where appropriate, financial instruments (Article 17(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1293/2013).

Cooperation with relevant international organisations and their institutions and bodies shall be possible where needed
for the purpose of achieving the climate action objectives.

_Remarks_

This pilot project will demonstrate nature-based solutions (constructed wetlands/retention ponds) for mitigating the
impact of climate change and human land use on water quantity (droughts and f loods) and quality (nutrients, pesticides)
in agricultural regions. The water cycle is under pressure in agricultural regions, while agricultural practices depend on
the availability of water. Therefore the focus of this project will be on solutions that mitigate problems of water
availability for rural and agricultural users, while also minimising the impact of agricultural practices on the downstream catchments. Research questions are the following:

— How can nature-based solutions help mitigate hydrological events such as f loods and droughts at the farm scale?

— How can these nature-based solutions help mitigate hydrological events at the catchment scale?

— How do these solutions contribute to decreasing water pollution from agricultural areas, such as nutrients,
pesticides, sediments and heavy metals?

_**34 02 77**_ _(cont'd)_

34 02 77 04 _(cont'd)_

— What are the total economic costs and benefits of the proposed solutions? What are the other ecosystem services
related to these nature-based solutions and which policy/governmental measures have to be taken to exploit them?

This project will select three pilot study regions. In each region, collaboration arrangements will be set up with local
agriculture research agencies that will implement the nature-based solutions in existing monitored agricultural areas
(discharge and pollution of first/second order streams). Modelling will be based on the combined data from the piloting
sites.

— Demonstrating pilot types: For each region, four prototypes (12 in total) of retention ponds/constructed wetlands
will be constructed, with variations in size and outflow mechanisms and in position/catchment size. Water quantity
and quality will be monitored at the outlet and at the existing monitoring stations on first or second order streams.
In order to take into account seasonal effects, monitoring should at least cover one year, with potential for follow-up
monitoring beyond the project’s lifetime.

— Modelling study: Results from pilot prototypes will be extrapolated to an entire catchment through hydrological
modelling. Inf luence on quantity (f loods, base f low) and quality (nutrients, pesticides, pollutants, sediment) of water
will be assessed at the watershed scale. Modelling will be based on existing models, although additional calibration
and validation will be required. Modelling results should focus on the required densities to achieve a good status at
the catchment scale.

— Economic viability: On the basis of a combination of the demonstration and modelling result, the economic
viability of the different prototypes will be assessed. Costs and benefits will be quantified, and mechanisms to
compensate for the additional ecosystem services will be evaluated.

The development plans will be based on regional cost-benefit analyses and economic tools, including the cost of water
resilience plans. The solutions will prevent water cycle pollution and avoid pollution through water discharge. The
benefits will be compared to alternative or complementary options. The selection of pilots and regions will take into
account relevant Interreg and other Union projects.

_Remarks_

The emergency aid reserve (EAR) is intended to allow for a rapid response to 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, and situations of particular pressure resulting from
migratory f lows at the Union’s external borders where circumstances so require.

The annual amount of the reserve is fixed at EUR 280 000 000 (2011 prices) and may be used up to year n+1 in
accordance with the Financial Regulation. The reserve shall be entered in the general budget of the Union as a provision.
The portion of the annual amount stemming from the previous year shall be drawn on first. That portion of the annual
amount from year n which is not used in year n+1 shall lapse.

_Remarks_

The aim of this reserve is to cover the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund so as to enable the Union to
demonstrate solidarity towards, and to support workers made redundant and self-employed persons whose activity has
ceased as a result of major structural changes in world patterns due to globalisation, as a result of the continuation of
the global financial and economic crisis addressed in Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013, or as a result of a new global
financial and economic crisis and to provide financial support for their rapid reintegration into sustainable
employment.

The methods for entering the appropriations in this reserve and for mobilising the Fund are laid down in point 13 of
the Interinstitutional Agreement of 2 December 2013 between the European Parliament, the Council and the
Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management.

_EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA_

Under the Agreement establishing the European Economic Area the EFTA States (with the exception of Switzerland) take part in a wide
range of Union policies covered by subheading 1a and headings 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the multiannual 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 State by the gross domestic product
at market prices of all the Member States plus that of the EFTA State concerned.

For 2018 the proportionality factor is estimated at 2,37 % (on the basis of 2016 figures), i.e. 2,21 % for Norway, 0,12 % for Iceland and
0,04 % for Liechtenstein.

These financial contributions will not be formally entered into the budget; each budget heading relating to activities in which the EFTA
States 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 2018 is estimated at about EUR 382 140 961 in commitment appropriations. The EFTA
States 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 States are still to be discussed with them and must therefore be regarded as
provisional.

2. _**Description**_

In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 332/2002, the 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 was 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 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.

On 20 January 2009, the Council decided to provide Community medium-term financial assistance for Latvia in the form of a
medium-term loan of a principal of up to EUR 3 100 000 000 for a maximum average maturity of 7 years.

On 6 May 2009, the Council decided to provide Community medium-term financial assistance for Romania in the form of a
medium-term loan of a principal of up to EUR 5 000 000 000 for a maximum average maturity of 5 years.

On 18 May 2009, the Council decided to extend the facility to EUR 50 000 000 000.

On 22 October 2013, the Council decided to make available to Romania precautionary medium-term financial assistance
amounting to a maximum of EUR 2 000 000 000 in the form of a loan with a maximum average maturity of 8 years. The
facility expired at the end of September 2015 without having been drawn down.

3. _**Effect on the budget**_

Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the budget only if the
guarantee is activated in case of default. As at 31 December 2016 the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is
EUR 4 200 000 000.

2. _**Description**_

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

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

In accordance with Article 2(2) of Council Regulation (EU) No 407/2010, the outstanding amount of loans and credit lines
granted to Member States under the European financial 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

3. _**Description**_

Under the Financial Protocols concluded with Mediterranean third countries, global amounts are laid down for loans to be granted
by the European Investment Bank from its own funds. The European Investment Bank (EIB) 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).

On 14 April 1997, the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, decided
to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB 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 three years beginning on 31 January 1997 (with a possible extension of six months).

_WAY OF INDICATION)_

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

On 29 November 1999, the Council decided to grant a Community guarantee to the EIB 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 three years beginning on 29 November 1999 (with a possible extension of six
months).

The EIB 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, the Council, acting on the basis of a Commission proposal and after consulting the European Parliament,
decided once again to grant the EIB 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 seven years from 1 February 2000 to 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period
the loans granted by the EIB had not reached the abovementioned total values, the period has automatically been extended by six
months.

On 4 December 2000, the Council decided to establish an EIB 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 six 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.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed
and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000
(EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU grants an EU guarantee to the EIB against losses under financing operations supporting investment
projects outside the Union (pre-accession countries, neighbourhood and partnership countries, Asia and Latin America, South
Africa) throughout the period 2014-2020. The maximum ceiling of the EIB financing operations shall not exceed
EUR 30 000 000 000 broken down into a fixed ceiling of a maximum amount of EUR 27 000 000 000 and an optional
additional amount of EUR 3 000 000 000 to be decided in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure following the midterm review exercise. The EU guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregated outstanding amount.

Commission proposal COM(2016) 583 final of 14 September 2016 foresees an increase in the overall ceiling of the EIB financing
operations under the EU guarantee throughout the period 2014-2020 by releasing the optional additional amount of
EUR 3 000 000 000 referred to in Decision No 466/2014/EU and by adding a new private sector lending mandate amounting
to EUR 2 300 000 000 for projects addressing root causes of migration. The overall ceiling will reach a total amount of
EUR 32 300 000 000 and will be broken down into regional ceilings and sub-ceilings.

3. _**Description**_

In response to a call made by the Council on 9 October 1989, the Board of Governors of the European Investment Bank (EIB)
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 EIB 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 Community guarantee for EUR 3 000 000 000 in EIB 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.

On 14 April 1997, the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, decided
to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in Albania, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia,
Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia. 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 3 520 000 000 is for the abovementioned countries of central and eastern Europe. It covers a
period of 3 years beginning on 31 January 1997. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not attained the
overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by six months.

On 19 May 1998, the Council decided to grant a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans for projects in the
former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. 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 EIB had not attained the
overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by six months.

On 14 December 1998, the Council decided to amend Decision 97/256/EC in order to extend the Community guarantee to the
EIB 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 two years beginning on 22 December 1998. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not
attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by six months.

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

On 22 December 1999, the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament,
decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB 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 seven years beginning on 1 February 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007.
As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has
been automatically extended by six months.

The EIB 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 7 November 2000, the Council decided to extend the guarantee granted by the Community to the EIB to loans for projects in
Croatia.

On 6 November 2000, the Council decided to extend the guarantee granted by the Community to the EIB to loans for projects in
the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

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 candidates: 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.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed
and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000 (EUR
2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU grants an EU guarantee to the EIB against losses under financing operations supporting investment
projects outside the Union (pre-accession countries, neighbourhood and partnership countries, Asia and Latin America, South
Africa) throughout the period 2014-2020. The maximum ceiling of the EIB financing operations shall not exceed
EUR 30 000 000 000 broken down into a fixed ceiling of a maximum amount of EUR 27 000 000 000 and an optional
additional amount of EUR 3 000 000 000 to be decided in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure following the midterm review exercise. The EU guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregated outstanding amount.

Commission proposal COM(2016) 583 final of 14 September 2016 foresees an increase in the overall ceiling of the EIB financing
operations under the EU guarantee throughout the period 2014-2020 by releasing the optional additional amount of
EUR 3 000 000 000 referred to in Decision No 466/2014/EU and by adding a new private sector lending mandate amounting
to EUR 2 300 000 000 for projects addressing root causes of migration. The overall ceiling will reach a total amount of
EUR 32 300 000 000 and will be broken down into regional ceilings and sub-ceilings.

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), and subsequently of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=1994&mm=11&jj=12&type=L&nnn=293&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
[10.6.2009, p. 10), any defaults are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2009&mm=06&jj=10&type=L&nnn=145&pppp=0010&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— one annual payment to or, 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,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2004&mm=12&jj=31&type=L&nnn=396&pppp=0028&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed
and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000
(EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

3. _**Description**_

Pursuant to Decision 93/115/EEC the Union guarantees, on a case-by-case basis, loans made by the European Investment Bank
(EIB) in third countries with which the European Union has concluded cooperation agreements.

Decision 93/115/EEC set an overall limit of EUR 250 000 000 a year for a period of 3 years.

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
extension of six months).

On 14 April 1997, the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, decided
to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB 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 extension of six months).

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

On 22 December 1999, the Council decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB 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 seven years beginning on 1 February 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period, the
loans granted by the EIB had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by six
months.

The EIB 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
EIB 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 grants a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects
outside the Community for loans in the following Latin America countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica,
Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela and in the following
Asia countries: Afghanistan*, Bangladesh, Bhutan*, Brunei, Cambodia*, China, India, Indonesia, Iraq*, South Korea, Laos, Malaysia,
Maldives, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan*, Thailand, Vietnam, Yemen and Central Asia
countries: Kazakhstan*, Kyrgyzstan*, Turkmenistan*, Uzbekistan* (*: eligibility to be decided by the Council). 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 six 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.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed
and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000 (EUR
2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU grants an EU guarantee to the EIB against losses under financing operations supporting investment
projects outside the Union (pre-accession countries, neighbourhood and partnership countries, Asia and Latin America, South
Africa) throughout the period 2014-2020. The maximum ceiling of the EIB financing operations shall not exceed
EUR 30 000 000 000 broken down into a fixed ceiling of a maximum amount of EUR 27 000 000 000 and an optional
additional amount of EUR 3 000 000 000 to be decided in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure following the midterm review exercise. The EU guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregated outstanding amount.

Commission proposal COM(2016) 583 final of 14 September 2016 foresees an increase in the overall ceiling of the EIB financing
operations under the EU guarantee throughout the period 2014-2020 by releasing the optional additional amount of
EUR 3 000 000 000 referred to in Decision No 466/2014/EU and by adding a new private sector lending mandate amounting
to EUR 2 300 000 000 for projects addressing root causes of migration. The overall ceiling will reach a total amount of
EUR 32 300 000 000 and will be broken down into regional ceilings and sub-ceilings.

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), and subsequently of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=1994&mm=11&jj=12&type=L&nnn=293&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

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

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed
and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000
(EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU was the basis for a contract of guarantee between the European Union and the EIB signed in
Luxembourg and in Brussels on 22 July 2014 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 sums.

3. _**Description**_

In accordance with the provisions of Decision 95/207/EC, the Union will guarantee European Investment Bank (EIB) loans to
South Africa up to a maximum total amount of EUR 300 000 000.

The budget guarantee covers all the debt-servicing (repayment of principal, interest and ancillary costs) in connection with these
loans.

On 14 April 1997, the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament, decided
to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in the Republic of South Africa. 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 375 000 000 is for the Republic of South Africa. It covered a
period of three years beginning on 1 July 1997 (with a possible 6-month extension).

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

On 22 December 1999, the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament,
decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in the Republic of South Africa. 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 beginning on 1 July 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had
not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period has been automatically extended by 6 months.

The EIB 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
EIB 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 grants a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects
outside the Community for loans. 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.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed
and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000
(EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU grants an EU guarantee to the EIB against losses under financing operations supporting investment
projects outside the Union (pre-accession countries, neighbourhood and partnership countries, Asia and Latin America, South
Africa) throughout the period 2014-2020. The maximum ceiling of the EIB financing operations shall not exceed
EUR 30 000 000 000 broken down into a fixed ceiling of a maximum amount of EUR 27 000 000 000 and an optional
additional amount of EUR 3 000 000 000 to be decided in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure following the midterm review exercise. The EU guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregated outstanding amount.

_BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY_
_WAY OF INDICATION)_

Commission proposal COM(2016) 583 final of 14 September 2016 foresees an increase in the overall ceiling of the EIB financing
operations under the EU guarantee throughout the period 2014-2020 by releasing the optional additional amount of
EUR 3 000 000 000 referred to in Decision No 466/2014/EU and by adding a new private sector lending mandate amounting
to EUR 2 300 000 000 for projects addressing root causes of migration. The overall ceiling will reach a total amount of
EUR 32 300 000 000 and will be broken down into regional ceilings and sub-ceilings.

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), and subsequently of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=1994&mm=11&jj=12&type=L&nnn=293&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
[10.6.2009, p. 10), any defaults are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2009&mm=06&jj=10&type=L&nnn=145&pppp=0010&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from the Fund of 9 % of the guaranteed operations,

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed
and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000
(EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk-operations).

Decision No 1639/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 2006 establishing a Competitiveness and
[Innovation Framework Programme (2007 to 2013) (OJ L 310, 9.11.2006, p. 15).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2006&mm=11&jj=09&type=L&nnn=310&pppp=0015&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

budget nomenclature).

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The High Growth and Innovative SME Facility (GIF) is one ( [1] ) of the financial instruments provided for under the Entrepreneurship
and Innovation Programme (EIP), which in turn is one of the three specific programmes under the Competitiveness and Innovation
Framework Programme (CIP) ( [2] ).

The overall objective of the financial instruments under the CIP is the improvement of access to finance for the start-up and growth
of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in order to support their investment in innovation activities, including ecoinnovation.

The GIF is implemented by the European Investment Fund (EIF) on behalf of the Commission. It aims to increase the supply of
equity for innovative SMEs in their early stages (GIF1) and in the expansion phase (GIF2). Investment proposals by financial
[intermediaries are selected on the basis of a notice of implementation (OJ C 302, 14.12.2007, p. 8).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2007&mm=12&jj=14&type=C&nnn=302&pppp=0008&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

In general, the CIP market-oriented instruments (both GIF and SMEG 07) have shown high efficiency and relevance to address the
current market conditions, dominated in the recent years by a tightening of credit conditions and more difficult access to finance for
SMEs. The GIF is a venture capital facility focused and targeted on a relatively limited number of companies that have the potential
to achieve high growth, to bring innovation to the market and to create high-added-value jobs.

As regards the duration, the commitment period for GIF ended on 31 December 2013 but the instruments will exist until the
winding up after 2026.

The total budgetary commitments for the CIP financial instruments for the whole period of 2007-2013 were foreseen to be EUR
1 130 million, with an original indicative split of EUR 620 million for GIF (including eco-innovation) and EUR 510 million for the
SME Guarantee Facility.

No further budgetary commitments have been made by the Commission since the end of the commitment period, i.e. 31 December
2013.

The GIF aggregate budgetary commitments for 2007-2013 amounted to EUR 580,7 million. The leverage effect ( [1] ) on GIF is
expected to be around 5,6 which means that the impact of the aggregate budgetary commitments on the overall economy is
expected to reach nearly EUR 3 252 million of funding to beneficiary SMEs.

approved Union contribution to those underlying venture capital funds).

(ii) _**Budget lines corresponding to the relevant operations**_

Article 02 02 02 — Improving access to finance for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the form of equity and debt.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The Equity Facility for Growth (EFG) focuses on funds that provide venture capital and mezzanine finance, such as subordinated and
participating loans, to expansion and growth-stage enterprises, in particular those operating across borders, while having the
possibility to make investments in early stage enterprises in conjunction with the Equity Facility for Research and Innovation (R&I)
under Horizon 2020.

In the latter case, the investment from EFG shall not exceed 20 % of the total Union investment except in cases of multi-stage funds,
where funding from EFG and the Equity Facility for R&I will be provided on a pro rata basis, based on the funds’ investment policy.
The Commission may decide to amend the 20 % threshold in light of changing market conditions.

The EFG may include seed funding, angel funding and quasi-equity financing subject to market demand but exclude asset-stripping.

Support is given in the form of direct investments made by the entrusted entity in financial intermediaries that provide equity or
quasi-equity financing to SMEs or indirect investments via funds-of-funds as part of the Pan-European VC funds-of-funds project.

The overall policy objective is to provide enhanced access to risk capital for which significant market gaps exist in Europe and to
support the development of a pan-European risk capital market. The latter will be achieved by focusing predominantly on those risk
capital funds which invest cross-border.

The implementation of the EFG has been entrusted to the European Investment Fund (EIF) on the basis of a Delegation Agreement
signed on 22 July 2014.

The delegation agreement ensures that the EFG is accessible for a broad range of financial intermediaries provided that these are
professionally and independently managed and display the capacity to successfully support SMEs in their growth and expansion
phase.

From a technical point of view, the EIF is instructed to invest on a _pari passu_ basis with other private and public investors. Target
final recipients are SMEs of all sizes without a specific sector focus.

The duration of the equity instrument is planned to last until 31 December 2034 (until the last operations are wound down).

Regulation (EU) No 1287/2013 provides that no less than 60 % of the total financial envelope for the implementation of the
COSME programme shall be allocated to the financial instruments. Based on the distribution of the total amount allocated to the
financial instruments between the equity instrument (48 %) and the debt instrument (52 %) as foreseen in the legislative financial
statement, the initial overall budget envelope foreseen for the EFG for the total 2014-2020 programming period amounts to EUR
662 million.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The estimated initial budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 662 million ( [1] ).

The target leverage effect as indicated in the legal basis is between 4 and 6, with EUR 1 from the Union budget resulting in EUR 4-6
in equity investments over the lifetime of the financial instrument.

Based on the target leverage of the instrument, it is estimated that the total investment volumes mobilised would range from EUR
2 600 to 3 900 million for the entire duration of the programme.

( [1] ) This amount is based on the assumption that the distribution between the COSME financial instruments is 52 % for the Loan Guarantee Facility (LGF)
and 48 % for the Equity Facility for Growth (EFG) as foreseen in the legislative financial statement, and subject to change, in line with Article 17 of
Regulation (EU) No 1287/2013.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on budget**_

A Union-level Equity Facility for Research and Innovation (‘R&I’) is needed to help improve the availability of equity finance for early
and growth-stage investments and to boost the development of the Union venture capital market.

The goal is to contribute to overcoming the deficiencies of the European venture capital market and provide equity and quasi-equity
to cover the development and financing needs of innovative enterprises, including social enterprises, from the seed stage through to
growth and expansion.

The Equity Facility for R&I focuses on early-stage risk capital funds providing venture capital and quasi-equity (including mezzanine
capital) to individual portfolio enterprises. That facility has also the possibility to make expansion and growth-stage investments in
conjunction with the Equity Facility for Growth (EFG) under the Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and SMEs
(COSME), to ensure a continued support during the start-up and development of companies.

COMMISSION

_INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH POINT (E) OF ARTICLE 49(1) OF THE FINANCIAL REGULATION_

In the latter case, the investment from the Equity Facility for R&I of Horizon 2020 shall not exceed 20 % of the total EU investment
except in cases of multi-stage funds, where funding from EFG and the Equity Facility for R&I will be provided on a pro rata basis,
based on the funds’ investment policy. Like the EFG, the Equity Facility for R&I shall avoid buy-out or replacement capital intended
for the dismantling of an acquired enterprise.

The overall policy objective is to provide enhanced access to risk capital for which significant market gaps exist in Europe and to
support the development of a pan-European risk capital market.

In terms of EU added value, the Equity Facility for R&I will complement national schemes that cannot cater for cross-border
investments in R&I. The early-stage deals will also have a demonstration effect that can benefit public and private investors across
Europe. For the growth phase only at European level it is possible to achieve the necessary scale and the strong participation of
private investors that are essential to the functioning of a self-sustaining venture capital market.

The implementation of the direct investments under this facility is entrusted to the European Investment Fund (EIF) in Luxembourg.

The Delegation Agreement (amendment to the Delegation Agreement for the early-stage equity facility under Horizon 2020 signed
on 15 June 2015) with the entrusted entity ensures that the early-stage equity facility under Horizon 2020 is accessible for a broad
range of financial intermediaries provided that these are professionally and independently managed and display the capacity to
successfully support portfolio companies in their early-stage development and growth.

Through an amendment to the Delegation Agreement signed on 22 July 2015 a new compartment focusing on co-investments
alongside Business Angels, in particular in the areas of ICT and social entreprises has been implemented. One of its objectives is to
unlock private capital to support the development of the social investment market and facilitate access to finance for innovative
social enterprises.

From a technical point of view, the entrusted entity will be instructed to invest on a _pari passu_ basis with other private and public
investors. The target final recipients are early-stage companies (notably SMEs or small midcaps) without a specific sector focus.

The duration of the equity instrument will not exceed the year 2035 (until last operations are wound down).

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 487 million, of which EUR 29 million
from EaSI.

The envisaged leverage effect of the Equity Facility for R&I of Horizon 2020 will be approximately 4-6 depending on the type of
investments and the form of cooperation with venture capital funds and/ or knowledge transfer investors. Based on the leverage
targets of the programme, it is estimated that the total amount of venture capital investments mobilised through the sole Horizon
2020 and EaSI contribution would range from approximately EUR 1 950 million to EUR 2 900 million for the entire duration of
the programme.

The last amendment to the Delegation Agreement has modified the structure of the Equity Facility for R&I branded as InnovFin (IFE)
so that IFE is financially supported by the Union contribution for the Horizon 2020 Equity Financial Instrument provided on a first
loss basis and the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) and EIF provided on a second loss basis. The initial indicative size
of the IFE facility shall amount to up to EUR 1 018 million. This is supported by the initial EU contribution for the Horizon 2020
Equity Financial Instrument, which has an indicative value of EUR 458 million (45 %). The initial indicative amount of the EFSI
participation in the IFE shall amount up to EUR 270 million (26,5 %). The initial indicative amount of the EIF participation in the
IFE amounts up to EUR 290 million (28,5 %).

The pan-European venture capital fund-of-funds created through this last amendment can help increase the scale of venture capital
funds in Europe and the industry's footprint across all Member States, as well as attracting private investors including (as for
investment platforms) pension funds, insurance funds and sovereign wealth funds. The aim of the fund-of-funds is to unlock
market-based finance for SMEs and increase cross-border investments. Its creation is part of the Capital Market Union action plan.

Article 09 03 02 — Creating an environment more conducive to private investment for telecommunications infrastructure projects

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

Given the current market failures in the financing of infrastructure projects and in view of recent developments, in particular the
establishment of the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), an Equity Instrument was established under CEF by way of the
2015 CEF Work Programme for a contribution to financial instruments (Commission Implementing Decision C(2015) 8847 final).
The establishment of EFSI greatly enhanced the available financing opportunities in the form of debt and made it possible to
optimise the use of scarce CEF resources by re-directing a part of the available budget to finance smaller and more risky projects,
especially in the area of broadband. The Debt Instrument will nonetheless remain the main delivery mechanism for the financial
instruments under CEF. An ex-ante assessment of the CEF Equity Instrumentcomplementing the ex ante assessment of the CEF Debt
Instrument has been carried out in 2016, which concluded that an equity fund in the broadband sector may be established under
Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013.

Currently, the contribution to the CEF Equity Instrument is foreseen for broadband (EUR 100 million) for the establishment of a
Broadband Investment Fund. The Fund will contribute to enhancing the roll-out of broadband networks in line with applicable
eligibility criteria (in particular, the support to innovative projects, based on state-of-the-art technology and with a potential for
replicability), both via direct financing to private sector companies (focusing on mid-caps and SMEs) and public and private
partnerships, and via public or private financial intermediaries.

The Broadband Investment Fund will be implemented under the CEF Equity Instrument by setting up of a dedicated investment
vehicle to allow the pooling of contributions from multiple investors (direct management). The Fund will be managed by a fund
manager selected in a competitive selection process in 2016. The investment manager is a professional asset manager with extensive
experience in infrastructure and, in particular, broadband investments in Europe. For alignment of interest, the investment manager
will also subscribe to the fund. The Fund is envisaged to become operational in 2017.

The use of the CEF Equity Instrument in subsequent years of CEF implementation may be considered, for the transport sector, for
riskier projects or for projects in immature markets. In the energy sector, the Equity Instrument may be used to intervene in duly
justified cases to prevent major delays in the construction of projects of common interest.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The EaSI Capacity Building Investments is one of the financial instruments foreseen under the Employment and Social Innovation
(‘EaSI’) programme. The objectives of this financial instrument are set out in Regulation (EU) No 1296/2013, in particular Article 4
thereof.

_General objective_

To promote employment and social inclusion by increasing the availability and accessibility of microfinance for vulnerable people
who wish to start up a micro-enterprise as well as for existing micro-enterprises, and by increasing access to finance for social
enterprises.

_Specific objectives under Article 26 of Regulation (EU) No 1296/2013_

To build up the institutional capacity of microcredit providers.

More specifically, EaSI Capacity Building Investments aim at building up the institutional capacity of financial intermediaries that
have not yet reached sustainability (i.e. break-even, operational capacity, etc.), including greenfield financial intermediaries, or
financial intermediaries that are in need of risk capital to expand further their operations, both in the microfinance and in the social
entrepreneurship space. EaSI Capacity Building Investments will be implemented through direct and indirect equity investments in
financial intermediaries and loans with an ‘equity-like’ risk profile in term of subordination or maturity profile to financial
intermediaries that are not allowed to receive equity investments by law or due to regulatory restrictions.

The EaSI Capacity Building financial instrument is implemented by the European Investment Fund (EIF) on behalf of the
Commission. The amended EaSI Delegation Agreement introducing the set up and the implementation process of EaSI Capacity
Building Investments was signed between the Commission and the EIF on 19 December 2016.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The SME Guarantee Facility (SMEG 07) is one ( [2] ) of the financial instruments provided for under the Entrepreneurship and
Innovation Programme (EIP), which in turn is one of the three specific programmes under the Competitiveness and Innovation
Framework Programme (CIP) ( [3] ).

The overall objective of the financial instruments under the CIP is the improvement of access to finance for the start-up and growth
of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in order to support their investment in innovation activities, including ecoinnovation. SMEG 07 contributes to this objective by providing leverage to SME debt financing instruments to increase the
supply of debt finance to SMEs.

The SMEG 07 is operated by the European Investment Fund (EIF) on behalf of the Commission. It provides counter- or coguarantees to guarantee schemes and direct guarantees to financial intermediaries operating in eligible countries.

In general, the CIP market-oriented instruments (both SMEG 07 and GIF) have shown high efficiency and relevance to address the
current market conditions, dominated in the recent years by a tightening of credit conditions and more difficult access to finance for
SMEs. The SMEG07 is a counter-cyclical instrument that helped final recipients to face the difficulties arising from the economic
conditions since the crisis, namely to obtain or maintain access to finance and to create or maintain jobs over the period.

As regards the duration, the commitment period for the SMEG07 ended on 31 December 2013 but the instrument will exist until
the winding up after 2026.

The total budgetary commitments for the CIP financial instruments for the whole period of 2007-2013 were foreseen to be EUR
1 130 million, with an original indicative split of EUR 620 million for GIF and EUR 510 million for the SMEG07.

Article 08 02 51 (in part) — Completion of previous research framework programme — seventh framework programme — EC
indirect action (2007 to 2013).

In the period 2007-2013, a total amount of EUR 1 230,73 million has been committed from the general budget of the Union
(initial Seventh Framework Programme budget plus additional EFTA and third country appropriations to that programme) and paid
to the European Investment Bank (EIB) to support both Risk-Sharing Finance Facility (RSFF) and Risk-Sharing Instrument (RSI).

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The RSFF, co-developed by the Commission and the EIB, was established in June 2007. The Union and the EIB are risk-sharing
partners for loans provided by the EIB directly or indirectly to beneficiaries. The European Union, through budget resources for the
Seventh Framework Programme, and the EIB have set aside a total amount of up to EUR 2 000 million (up to EUR 1 000 million
each) for the period 2007-2013 to cover losses if RSFF loans are not repaid. Through these EU/EIB contributions for risk-sharing
and loss coverage, the EIB is able to extend a loan volume of EUR 10 000 million to companies and the research community for
their investments in research, development and innovation (RDI).

In early 2012, a new pilot guarantee facility, the RSI (Risk-Sharing Instrument for SMEs and small midcaps, with up to 499
employees) was launched to improve access loan finance for RDI investments. The RSI guarantee facility is part of the RSFF
implementation and is carried out by the European Investment Fund (EIF). For this RSI pilot guarantee facility, the Union
contribution coming from the Seventh Framework Programme (plus additional EFTA and third country appropriations to that
programme) for the period 2012/2013 amounted to EUR 270 million (in addition to the abovementioned amount).

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

In the period 2007-2013, a total amount of EUR 270 million has been committed from the EU budget (initial Seventh Framework

Article 04 03 53 (in part) — Completion of other activities.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The aim of the European Progress Microfinance Facility (the ‘Facility’) is twofold: on the one hand, it increases availability of
microfinance for persons wishing to start up or develop their micro-enterprises, including for self-employment, in the sense that it
enables microfinance providers in the EU to enlarge their lending volumes to these individuals. On the other hand, the Facility
enhances access to microfinance by reducing microfinance providers’ risk. This feature allows microfinance providers to reach out
to groups who could normally not be served, for instance, because persons from these groups could not provide sufficient collateral
or because the interest rates would have to be very high to justify their actual risk profile.

The Facility shall provide Union resources to increase access to, and availability of, microfinance for:

— persons who have lost or are at risk of losing their job, or who have difficulties entering or re-entering the labour market, as
well as persons who are facing the threat of social exclusion or vulnerable persons who are in a disadvantaged position with
regard to access to the conventional credit market and who want to start or further develop their own micro-enterprise,
including self-employment,

— micro-enterprises, especially in the social economy, as well as micro-enterprises which employ persons referred to in the
preceding indent.

The financial contribution from the general budget of the Union for the Facility for the period from 1 January 2010 to
31 December 2013 amounts to EUR 103,6 million, out of which EUR 23,6 million is foreseen for the EPMF Guarantee Facility
(EPMF-G) and EUR 80 million for the EPMF _Fonds commun de placement_ — _Fonds d'investissement spécialisé_ (EPMF FCP-FIS).

The Facility is implemented by using the following types of actions, as appropriate:

— guarantees (EPMF-G),

— debt and equity instruments (FCP-FIS),

— support measures, such as communication activities, monitoring, control, audit and evaluation which are directly necessary for
the effective and efficient implementation of Decision No 283/2010/EU and for the achievement of its objectives.

The micro-credit guarantee window shall remain in full force and effect until 31 December 2020.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

No further budgetary commitments have been made by the Commission since the end of the commitment period.

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 103,6 million (cumulative budget for
EPMF-G and EPMF FCP-FIS).

Article 02 02 02 — Improving access to finance for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the form of equity and debt.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The Loan Guarantee Facility (LGF) provides:

— counter-guarantees and other risk-sharing arrangements for guarantee schemes,

— direct guarantees and other risk-sharing arrangements for any other financial intermediaries meeting the eligibility criteria.

The LGF consists of:

— guarantees for debt financing via loans, including subordinated and participating loans, or leasing, which shall reduce the
particular difficulties that viable SMEs face in accessing finance either due to their perceived high risk or their lack of sufficient
available collateral,

— securitisation of SME debt finance portfolios, which shall mobilise additional debt financing for SMEs under appropriate risksharing arrangements with the targeted institutions. Support for those transactions is conditional upon an undertaking by the
originating institutions to use a significant part of the resulting liquidity or the mobilised capital for new SME lending within a
reasonable period of time. The amount of this new debt financing will be calculated in relation to the amount of the guaranteed
portfolio risk and shall be negotiated, together with the period of time, individually with each originating institution.

The LGF covers, except for loans in the securitised portfolio, loans up to EUR 150 000 and with a minimum maturity of 12
months. The LGF may also cover loans above EUR 150 000 in cases where SMEs who meet the criteria to be eligible under the
COSME programme do not meet the criteria to be eligible under the SME window in the Debt Facility of the Horizon 2020
programme (the so-called InnovFin SME Guarantee Facility), and with a minimum maturity of 12 months. The LGF is designed in
such a way that it will be possible to report on SMEs supported, both in terms of number and volume of loans.

The implementation of the LGF has been entrusted to the European Investment Fund (EIF), on the basis of a Delegation Agreement
signed on 22 July 2014.

The Delegation Agreement ensures that the LGF is accessible for a broad range of financial intermediaries (guarantee societies,
national promotional institutes, commercial banks, cooperatives, etc.) which are experienced in financial transactions with SMEs or
which have the capacity to enter into financial transactions with SMEs.

From a technical point of view, the EIF is instructed to provide capped portfolio guarantees to the financial intermediaries which will
cover a portion of expected losses of a portfolio of newly generated SME transactions which have a higher risk profile.

L 57/1816 EN Official Journal of the European Union 28.2.2018

COMMISSION

_INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH POINT (E) OF ARTICLE 49(1) OF THE FINANCIAL REGULATION_

As far as securitisation transactions are concerned, the EIF is instructed to provide guarantee coverage on a part of the mezzanine
tranche of a securitised SME lending portfolio coupled with an undertaking by the financial intermediary to build up a new SME
loan portfolio.

Target final recipients under the capped portfolio guarantees and the securitisation transactions are SMEs of all sizes without a
specific sector focus. The range of financial products which can be supported through the capped guarantees is very broad so as to
not discriminate amongst the SME population which has very differing financing needs depending on a company’s stage of
development and the sector/industry in which it operates.

The guarantee instrument is planned to last until 31 December 2034 (until last operations are wound down). Individual guarantee
agreements to be signed by the entrusted entity will have a maximum duration of ten years.

The LGF may also contribute to the financial instruments to be deployed under the SME initiative, a joint instrument combining EU
funds available under COSME and/or Horizon 2020 and ESIF resources in cooperation with the EIB and EIF with a view to generate
additional lending to SMEs in specific Member States. This contribution may take the form of uncapped portfolio guarantees or
securitisation operations and cover the mezzanine tranche of the portfolio.

Regulation (EU) No 1287/2013 provides that no less than 60 % of the total financial envelope for the implementation of the
COSME programme shall be allocated to the financial instruments. Based on the distribution of the total amount allocated to the
financial instruments between the equity instrument (48 %) and the debt instrument (52 %) as foreseen in the legislative financial
statement, the initial overall budget envelope foreseen for the LGF for the total 2014-2020 programming period amounts to EUR
717 million.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The estimated initial budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 717 million ( [1] ).

The target leverage effect as indicated in the legal basis is between 20 and 30, with EUR 1 from the Union budget resulting in EUR
20-30 in financing over the lifetime of the financial instrument.

Based on the target leverage of the instrument, it is estimated that the total amount of loan volumes mobilised would range from
EUR 14 300 to 21 500 million for the entire duration of the programme.

( [1] ) This amount is based on the assumption that the overall distribution between the COSME financial instruments is 52 % for the Loan Guarantee Facility
(LGF) and 48 % for the Equity Facility for Growth (EFG) as foreseen in the legislative financial statement, and subject to change, in line with Article 17
of Regulation (EU) No 1287/2013.

Item 08 02 02 02 — Enhancing access to risk finance for investing in research and innovation.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

This guarantee facility succeeds and refines the Risk-Sharing Instrument (RSI) pilot under the Risk-Sharing Finance Facility (RSFF) in
the Seventh Framework Programme, and is part of a single debt financial instrument supporting the growth of enterprises and their
R&I activities. It targets R&I-driven SMEs and small midcaps (with up to 499 employees) requiring loans of between EUR 25 000
and EUR 7,5 million. A loan of more than EUR 7,5 million will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

The European Investment Fund (EIF) implements this facility by providing direct guarantees to financial intermediaries such as
banks, which will extend the actual loans to final recipients. The guarantee will cover up to 50 % of intermediaries’ potential losses.
EIF also offers counter-guarantees to financial intermediaries (such as guarantee institutions) providing risk protection to banks
extending loans to R&I-driven SMEs and small midcaps.

R&I-driven SMEs or small midcaps wishing to apply for a loan should contact one of the financial intermediaries signing an
agreement (see ‘Selection procedure’) with EIF. This is a demand-driven facility, with no prior allocations between sectors, countries
or regions. However, subject to the successful conclusion of negotiations, the Commission incentivises EIF to make a particular
effort to ensure that a significant proportion of final recipients are eco-innovative SMEs and small midcaps.

Expected impact: R&I-driven SMEs and small midcaps able to carry out a greater amount of R&I. The indicators are the number of
agreements signed with financial intermediaries and the number and volume of loans made.

Indicative timetable: This facility is available since 10 June 2014.

Selection procedure:

(a) for financial intermediaries: EIF issues calls for expression of interest, with eligibility and selection criteria defined as part of
each call after consultation with DG Research & Innovation;

(b) for loans: according to the internal processes of the intermediary bank or other financial institution that the SME or small
midcap applies to, using normal commercial criteria.

The total budget foreseen for the programming period 2014-2020 to the SMEs and Small Midcaps R&I Loans Service coming from
the ‘Access to risk finance’ part of Horizon 2020 is EUR 1 060 million.

The risk-sharing arrangement with the EIF will leverage the Union contribution to the SME & Small Midcaps R&I Loans Service by a
factor of up to 9, thus resulting in loan finance for R&I-driven SMEs and small midcaps of approximately EUR 9 540 million for the
entire duration of the programme.

The instrument will also contribute to the financial instruments that will be deployed under the joint SME initiative as endorsed by
the October 2013 European Council. This contribution may take the form of uncapped portfolio guarantees or securitisation
operations and cover, in combination with resources from ESIF, COSME and EIF, the mezzanine tranche of the portfolio.

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 1 060 million.

— social entrepreneurship: 45 %.

The remainder will be split between these two.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

Indicative target results are 41 000 microloans given to final recipients and 1 100 loans given to social enterprises. The target for
microfinance has been based on the past experience with the European Progress Microfinance Facility.

The target for social enterprises has been based on the total volume of the guarantees and funded instruments funds, multiplied by
the expected leverage and divided by an average investment size of EUR 200 000 per social enterprise.

The indicative budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 96 million (EUR 56 million for
microfinance and EUR 40 million for social entrepreneurship).

The target minimum leverage effect is 5,5 over the lifetime of the financial instrument for the guarantees part. Based on the target
leverage of the instrument, it is estimated that the total amount of 96 million used for the guarantees part would represent around
EUR 528 million for the final recipients.

(ii) _**Budget lines corresponding to the relevant operations**_

Item 15 02 01 01 (in part) — Promoting excellence and cooperation in European education and training areas and its relevance to
the labour market.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The objective of the ‘Erasmus+ Master’ Student Loan Guarantee Facility (the ‘Facility’) is to foster and support full programme
mobility at master’s level (second cycle of higher education). In order to do this, the Facility provides partial guarantees to financial
intermediaries which issue loans on favourable conditions to students from Erasmus+ participating countries undertaking a full
(one or two-year) master’s-level programme outside their country of residence, and outside the country where they obtained their
bachelor-level qualification.

Guarantees issued through the Facility cover new eligible student loans up to a maximum of EUR 12 000 for a one-year master’s
programme and up to EUR 18 000 for a two-year master’s programme.

The Facility thus represents a direct contribution to the Union and Bologna Process ministerial target to double the proportion of
students completing a study or training period abroad to 20 % by 2020.

The management of the Facility at Union level has been entrusted to the European Investment Fund (EIF), which concludes
agreements with financial intermediaries such as banks or national or regional student lending institutions. These participating
financial intermediaries in turn pass on the benefit of the EU guarantee by making student loans available free of any requirement
for student or family collateral and on favourable terms, e.g. lower than market rate interest, and safeguards against student hardship
to include a ‘grace period’. Such a ‘grace period’ enables graduates to find employment before beginning loan repayments and a
‘payment holiday’ whereby they could freeze repayments if needed such as during a spell of unemployment or maternity.

Capital for the loans is leveraged from the participating financial intermediaries, with the Union acting as part-guarantor against
possible final recipient’s default on loans. Repayment of loans occurs via ‘normal’ bank loan mechanisms, with all operational
information and processing taking place at a local level.

The Erasmus+ programme 2014-2020 legal basis provides for a total Union contribution of EUR 517 million (3,5 % of the
programme's budget), which should enable up to 200 000 students to benefit from loans backed by the Facility. Given the delayed
start-up of the Facility and the slow take-up by financial intermediaries, budgetary commitments for the year 2017 have been
reduced.

The duration of the instrument will extend to 2037 (i.e. programme in place until 2020 + 2 years commitment deadline + up to 15
years maturity on the student loans).

The Facility provides partial guarantees at up to 90 % of the first losses resulting from final recipient’s defaults with a guarantee cap
of 18 % of the loan portfolio. The estimated leverage is 5,7 (i.e. approximately EUR 3 000 million to be provided as capital for
student loans from participating financial intermediaries).

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The purpose of the PF4EE Instrument (Private Financing for Energy Efficiency) is to provide access to adequate and affordable
commercial financing for eligible energy efficiency (EE) investments targeted by schemes developed by participating countries to
implement their national energy efficiency action plans (NEEAP) or other programmes in line with EU directives relating to energy
efficiency.

The PF4EE instrument provides to financial intermediaries : (i) a portfolio-based credit risk protection (risk-sharing facility or RSF);
combined with (ii) expert support services for the FIs in order to support the implementation of the PF4EE instrument; (iii) longterm financing from the EIB.

The RSF is designed to mitigate the credit risk faced by financial intermediaries when lending to final recipients undertaking eligible
EE investments. By means of Union funds deposited on a collateral account, the RSF will cover part of the ones incurred under EE
loans included in the portfolio to be built by the financial intermediaries for the financing of EE investments.

The RSF aims to increase lending activity and to improve financing conditions for final recipients through, among others, lower
pricing, longer maturities and lighter securities requirements. The EIB loan for EE to the financial intermediaries may complement
the RSF. Such EIB loans for EE will be provided by the EIB at competitive rates and with long maturities.

The PF4EE needs to be operational for as long as underlying loans covered by the RSF remain outstanding. The maximum tenor to
be allowed under the RSF will be 20 years. Therefore the PF4EE will be in place for up to 20 years after the end of the
implementation period (2042).

The final recipients include private individuals, home-owner associations, SMEs, corporates or public institutions or bodies,
undertaking EE investments in line with the NEEAP of each Member State.

The size of the EE loans provided to beneficiaries range from EUR 40 000, which can be reduced to accommodate small
investments within the residential sector, to EUR 5 million and in exceptional cases up to EUR 15 million.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The implementation of the PF4EE started on 8 December 2014 with the signature of the Delegation Agreement.

Under the PF4EE approximately 6-10 financing agreements (EIB Loans for EE and RSF/Expert Support Facility) could be signed with
FIs in the period 2014-2017.

the target investment leverage effect is eight-fold.

Following the operations signed in 2015 and 2016 and in view of the prospective operations, the EIB now targets to achieve EUR
1 000 million of new investments in energy efficiency during the 2014-2017 pilot phase (EUR 430 million from EIB and EUR

In the period 2007-2013, a total amount of EUR 1 230,73 million has been committed from the general budget of the Union
(initial Seventh Framework Programme budget plus additional EFTA and third country appropriations to that programme) and paid
to the EIB to support Risk-Sharing Finance Facility (RSFF), of which EUR 960,73 million correspond to RSFF and EUR 270 million
to the Risk-Sharing Instrument (RSI).

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

A key objective of the RSFF is to improve access to debt finance for investments in research, development and innovation in the
Union, notably by private promoters. It contributes to addressing the financing needs of innovative projects and companies of all
size and ownership, including midcaps and SMEs.

The RSFF supports access to finance across the entire research, development, demonstration and innovation (RDI) spectrum, from
fundamental research to technological development, demonstration and innovation. The RSFF addresses cross-sector policy goals
and related investments needs in a demand-driven, ‘first come, first served’ way.

The RSFF, co-developed by the Commission and the EIB, was established in June 2007. The Union and the EIB are risk-sharing
partners for loans provided by the EIB directly or indirectly to beneficiaries. The European Union, through budget resources for the
Seventh Framework Programme, and the EIB have set aside a total amount of up to EUR 2 000 million (up to EUR 1 000 million
each) for the period 2007-2013 to cover losses if RSFF loans are not repaid. Through these EU/EIB contributions for risk-sharing
and loss coverage, the EIB is able to extend a loan volume of EUR 10 000 million to companies and the research community for
their investments in RDI.

RSFF beneficiaries can be European research-intensive entities (companies, stand-alone-projects) as well as research infrastructures.
RSFF loans support RDI investments made by promoters and beneficiaries located in the Member States and in associated countries.

Risk-sharing between the Union and the EIB was initially made on a loan-by-loan basis (until 2010). Since 2011, following a
recommendation by an independent expert group, risk-sharing is made on a portfolio basis, with first-loss-taking by the Union. The
EIB is assuming further risks above a certain threshold in case the Union risk absorption has been fully used.

Item 08 02 03 01 — Improving lifelong health and well-being.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The goal is to improve access to debt financing — loans, guarantees, counter-guarantees and other forms of debt and risk finance —
for public and private entities and public-private partnerships engaged in research and innovation activities requiring risky
investments in order to come to fruition. The focus shall be on supporting research and innovation with a high potential for
excellence.

The target final recipients are potentially legal entities of all sizes that can borrow and repay money and, in particular, SMEs with the
potential to carry out innovation and grow rapidly; mid-caps and large firms; universities and research institutes; research
infrastructures and innovation infrastructures; public-private partnerships; and special-purpose vehicles or projects.

The Loan and Guarantee Service for Research and Innovation is implemented towards a platform approach offering several
products specifically designed to address particular needs. The key partner as entrusted entity for the implementation of the Loan
and Guarantee Service for Research and Innovation is the European Investment Bank (EIB).

The funding of the Loan and Guarantee Service for Research and Innovation has two main components:

— _demand-driven_, providing loans and guarantees on a first-come, first-served basis, with specific support for beneficiaries such as
SMEs and midcaps. This component shall respond to the steady and continuing growth seen in the volume of RSFF lending,
which is demand-led. This demand-driven component will be supported by the budget of the Horizon 2020 access to risk
finance programme,

—
_targeted_, focusing on policies and key sectors crucial for tackling societal challenges, enhancing competitiveness, supporting
sustainable, low-carbon, inclusive growth, and providing environmental and other public goods. This component helps the
Union address research and innovation aspects of sectorial policy objectives and will be supported by other parts of Horizon
2020, other frameworks, programmes and budget lines in the Union budget, particular regions and Member States that wish to
contribute with their own resources (including through Structural Funds) and/or specific entities (such as Joint Technology
Initiatives) or initiatives.

The expiry date of the instrument is expected to be in 2027-2030.

The total budget (primary credits) foreseen for the programming period 2014-2020 for the demand-driven part of the Loan and
Guarantee Service for Research and Innovation is EUR 1 060 million. This Horizon 2020 budget contribution will, at least, be
matched by the EIB through its own resources, thus allowing increasing the total lending capacity and impact of the Loan and
Guarantee Service for Research and Innovation by a factor of two.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 1 500 million including EUR

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

**Financial instruments**

Pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013, the objective of the financial instruments under the CEF is to facilitate infrastructure
projects’ access to project and corporate financing by using Union funding as leverage. They shall help finance projects of common
interest with a clear EU added value, and to facilitate greater private sector involvement in the long-term financing of such projects
in the field of transport, energy and telecommunications, the latter limited to broadband networks.

They shall benefit projects with medium- to long-term financing needs and shall produce greater benefits in terms of market
impact, administrative efficiency and resource utilisation.

In addition, these instruments shall provide to infrastructure stakeholders such as financiers, public authorities, infrastructure
managers, construction companies and operators a coherent market oriented toolbox of Union financial support.

In 2014, the Commission, following the conclusion of the CEF _ex ante_ assessment provided for in Article 14(3) of Regulation (EU)
No 1316/2013, decided to set-up and launch a debt risk-sharing instrument for loans and guarantees which will also provide
support to project bonds. The _ex ante_ [assessment can be found at: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/meetdocs/2014_2019/docu-](http://www.europarl.europa.eu/meetdocs/2014_2019/documents/tran/dv/exanteassessmentcef_/exanteassessmentcef_en.pdf)

A CEF Equity ex-ante assessment complementing the CEF Debt Instrument (CEF DI) _ex ante_ assessment has also been carried out, in
particular focusing on energy, the broadband and ICT, and an equity fund may be established under Regulation (EU)
No 1316/2013.

_INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH POINT (E) OF ARTICLE 49(1) OF THE FINANCIAL REGULATION_

**Implementation of the CEF Debt Instrument and merger of all other financial instruments under Regulation (EC) No 680/**
**2007**

The CEF DI is implemented following the signature of a Delegation Agreement with the EIB in July 2015. Moreover, the Agreement
includes the merger of existing instruments (LGTT and the PBI) with the new debt instrument under the CEF which came into effect
on 1 January 2016.

**Impact on the budget**

Article 14(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013 (the ‘CEF Regulation’), as amended by the Regulation (EU) 2015/1017, provides
that the indicative Union contribution for the financial instruments for the period 2014-2020 shall not exceed 8,4 % of the overall
CEF budget. This percentage may be raised to 10 % under certain conditions laid down in Article 21(4) of the CEF Regulation.

**Duration of the CEF DI**

The last tranche of the Union contribution to the CEF DI shall be committed by the Commission by 31 December 2020. The actual
approval of debt financing by the EIB shall be finalised by 31 December 2022.

**Risk-sharing instrument for loans and guarantees**

The support through the subordinated debt financing shall not exceed 30 % of the total amount of the senior debt issued. The
senior debt financing to be provided under the CEF DI shall not exceed 50 % of the total amount of the overall senior debt
financing to be provided by the EIB.

**Administrative, performance and treasury management fees**

As established in the legal basis, the administrative and performance fees to be paid to the EIB shall not exceed 2 % and 3 %
respectively of the Union contribution effectively used for individual operations.

Pursuant to Article 13(5) of the Financial and Administrative Framework Agreement the treasury management fee is not to to
exceed 1 % of the Union contribution effectively used to cover operations over the duration of the financial instrument.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

As regards the _energy sector_, the CEF DI should facilitate access of projects of common interest to long term debt financing both on
corporate and project finance basis. The instrument should in particular assist the projects of common interest where the
instrument can facilitate access to debt capital from commercial lending institutions, institutional investors or senior lending from
the EIB. The Delegation Agreement provides that other categories of energy assets (e.g. renewable generation, smart distribution
grids) may benefit from the support of the CEF DI in case of ring-fenced contributions from other programmes or bodies.

As regards the _broadband sector_, the CEF DI shall facilitate the efficient f low of private and public investments to stimulate the
deployment and modernisation of high speed broadband networks in line with the targets of the Digital Agenda for Europe. In
order to ensure best value for money and given the limited resources allocated to CEF broadband, the CEF DI shall be available for
projects which rely on the technology best suited for the specific project, can help spur innovative business models and show a high
potential for replicability. The CEF DI shall in particular address the special needs of suburban, rural, and sparsely populated and less
developed regions, which need to be served with high speed connections. This includes the deployment of broadband networks to
link islands, landlocked, mountainous, remote and peripheral regions, including island Member States, with the central regions of
the Union and/or actions to improve the reliability or performance of connections between such regions and central regions of the
Union.

As regards the _transport sector_, the CEF DI shall serve to increase the total level of investment in transport infrastructures in the EU in
the period 2014-2020 in line with the policy objectives and investment volumes foreseen in the legal basis and in Regulation (EU)
No 1315/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 on Union guidelines for the development of

complementarity between the projects supported under the CEF and EFSI, the CEF focuses on promoting projects eligible under the
respective TEN-T Guidelines including promotion of key European f lagship initiatives such as the deployment of ERTMS, SESAR
and greening of the shipping f leet and investments on the Core and Comprehensive Networks defined in the CEF Regulation and in
the TEN-T Guidelines.

**Financial parameters and leverage**

Risk- and revenue-sharing parameters have been set in such a way that specific policy objectives, including targeting of particular
categories of projects, can be achieved while still preserving the market-oriented approach of the CEF DI.

The expected leverage of the CEF DI — defined as the total funding (i.e. Union contribution plus contributions from other financial
sources) divided by the Union contribution — shall range from 6 to 15, depending on the type of operations involved (level of risk,
target beneficiaries, and the debt financing concerned).

To date, CEF DI portfolio is composed of 11 projects:

(i) three projects formerly part of the LGTT portfolio (total project costs amounting to EUR 9 294,7 million),

(ii) seven projects formerly part of the PBI portfolio: one project in the energy sector (EUR 424,9 million in project costs), one
ICT project (EUR 189,1 million in project costs) and five transport projects (EUR 3 451,6 million in project costs), and

(iii) one transport project initially supported under LGTT which was refinanced under the CEF DI in 2016, for EUR 505 million in
project costs (amount is at the date of the refinancing).

In addition, the Commission signed with the EIB the first Green Shipping Guarantee, which in turn, has signed an individual
guarantee with a private bank in November 2016, for a total amount of EUR 150 million.

Article 34 02 02 — Increasing the resilience of the Union to climate change.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The Natural Capital Finance Facility (NCFF) will finance upfront investment and operating costs for revenue-generating or costsaving pilot projects which promote the conservation, restoration, management and enhancement of natural capital for biodiversity
and adaptation benefits, including ecosystem-based solutions to challenges related to land, soil, forestry, agriculture, water and
waste. The NCFF combines direct and indirect financing of projects through debt and equity.

Given that the projects supported by the NCFF will be projects that the European Investment Bank (EIB) normally does not invest
in, either because they are too small or because their perceived high risk is too high, the facility includes a risk-sharing mechanism
whereby the Union funds will absorb first losses in case of project failure. The implementation mechanism is established in a
Delegation Agreement between the Commission and the EIB, which also defines exclusion and selection criteria for projects,
ensuring that the correct priorities are built in the selection process and that there is sufficient geographical coverage and a balanced
spread over project types.

An expert support facility is provided in order to ensure that projects reach a sufficient stage of maturity for financing. The
implementation of the NCFF has been entrusted to the EIB by means of indirect management.

The NCFF pilot phase foresees a programming period of 2014 to 2017 with an implementation period of up to 2019. The Union
contribution foreseen for this period is EUR 60 million including EUR 10 million for the Technical Support Facility.

NCFF will be developed in two phases: a pilot phase will allow testing different financing options, in order to focus on the most
suitable approaches in a second operational phase.

Projects will fall into four broad categories:

— payments for Ecosystem services (PES): projects involving payments for the f lows of benefits resulting from natural capital,
usually a small scale bilateral transaction with a well identified buyer and seller of an ecosystem service. They are based on the
beneficiary pays principle, whereby payments take place to secure critical ecosystem services,

— green infrastructure (GI): GI is a strategically planned network of natural and semi-natural areas with other environmental
features designed and managed to deliver a wide range of ecosystem services. It incorporates green spaces (or blue if aquatic
ecosystems are concerned) and other physical features in terrestrial (including coastal) and marine areas. On land, GI is present
in rural and urban settings. GI projects have the potential to generate revenues or save costs based on the provision of goods
and services including water management, air quality, forestry, recreation, f lood/erosion/fire control, pollination, increased
resilience to the consequences of climate change,

— biodiversity offsets: these are conservation actions intended to compensate for the residual, unavoidable harm to biodiversity
caused by development projects. They are based on the polluter pays principle, whereby offsets are undertaken for compliance
or to mitigate reputational risks. Projects aimed at compensating damages done to Natura 2000 sites according to Article 6(4)
[of Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and f lora (OJ L 206,](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=1992&mm=07&jj=22&type=L&nnn=206&pppp=0007&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

— innovative pro biodiversity and adaptation investments: these are projects involving the supply of goods and services, mostly by
SMEs, which aim to protect biodiversity or increase the resilience of communities and other business sectors.

The aim is to identify and finance projects with a sufficiently broad geographical and sector coverage, while testing various financial
mechanisms, to ensure replicability across the Union during the operational phase.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

During the initial pilot phase, the NCFF is expected to execute 9 to 12 operations (including indirect operations). The amount for
each operation committed to any individual investments is expected to be between EUR 5 and 15 million.

The estimated EU budget allocation foreseen for the programming period (2014-2017) amounts to EUR 60 million (including EUR
10 million for the Technical Support Facility).

The target leverage effect as indicated in the Delegation Agreement is 2-4 over the lifetime of the financial instrument (31st
December 2019).

Based on the target leverage of the instrument, it is estimated that the total amount of investments and loans mobilised would be of
at least EUR 120 million for the entire duration of the programme.

The SME Initiative was presented on 27-28 June 2013 in the Commission’s and EIB’s joint report to the European Council, to
complement and utilise synergies between existing SME support programmes at national and Union level. More specifically, the
SME Initiative is a joint-instrument, combining Union funds available under COSME and Horizon 2020 and ERDF-EAFRD
resources in cooperation with the EIB and the EIF in view of generating additional lending to SMEs. The EIB is the entrusted
entity for the implementation of this initiative. Three types of financial instruments could be implemented under the SME Initiative
and they boil down in substance to two alternative ways of operating, namely:

(a) uncapped guarantees providing capital relief to financial intermediaries for new portfolios of debt finance to SMEs; and

( [1] ) Article 46 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 laying down common provisions

that Regulation — the SME Initiative, which also includes ERDF/EAFRD contributions. Pursuant to Article 111 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, each
year by 31 May (in 2017 and 2019 by 30 June), managing authorities have to provide their annual implementation reports on the preceding year,
which must include, as an annex, the information on financial instruments set out in Article 46 of that Regulation. That latter article also stipulates that
each year, starting in 2016, the Commission shall, within six months of the deadline for the submission of the annual implementation reports referred
to in Article 111 of that Regulation, provide summaries of the data on the progress made in financing and implementing the financial instruments.
Hence, most of the data relevant with regard to the implementation of financial instruments under shared management will only be available on 30
November each year, and this is true also for 2016.

committed under the SME Initiative. In that scenario, the corresponding maximum COSME and Horizon 2020 contributions would
amount to EUR 175 million each over the 2014-2016 period.

As of end 2016, the SME Initiative was implemented in six Member States, namely Spain, Malta, Bulgaria, Romania and Finland
under the uncapped guarantee instrument, and Italy under the securitisation instrument (option No 1).

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

As the new debt finance originated by the selected financial intermediary shall also include an amount equal to 20 times the
COSME and/or 9 times the Horizon 2020 contribution, that portion of the new Debt Finance portfolio resulting from COSME and/
or Horizon 2020 contributions under Regulations (EU) No 1287/2013 and (EU) No 1291/2013 shall fulfil respectively the COSME
and/or Horizon 2020 eligibility criteria. The following table shows for illustrative purpose the calculation of the target leverage for

(i) _**Reference to the basic act**_

Decision No 283/2010/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 March 2010 establishing a European Progress
[Microfinance Facility for employment and social inclusion (OJ L 87, 7.4.2010, p. 1).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2010&mm=04&jj=07&type=L&nnn=087&pppp=0001&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

(ii) _**Budget lines corresponding to the relevant operations**_

Article 04 03 53 (in part) — Completion of other activities.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The aim of the European Progress Microfinance Facility (the ‘Facility’) is twofold: on the one hand, it increases availability of
microfinance for persons wishing to start up or develop their micro-enterprises, including for self-employment, in the sense that it
enables microfinance providers in the EU to enlarge their lending volumes to these individuals. On the other hand, the Facility
enhances access to microfinance by reducing microfinance providers’ risk. This feature allows microfinance providers to reach out
to groups who could normally not be served, for instance, because persons from these groups could not provide sufficient collateral
or because the interest rates would have to be very high to justify their actual risk profile.

The Facility provides Union resources to increase access to, and availability of, microfinance for:

— persons who have lost or are at risk of losing their job, or who have difficulties entering or re-entering the labour market, as
well as persons who are facing the threat of social exclusion or vulnerable persons who are in a disadvantaged position with
regard to access to the conventional credit market and who want to start or further develop their own micro-enterprise,
including self-employment,

— micro-enterprises, especially in the social economy, as well as micro-enterprises which employ persons referred to in the
preceding indent.

The financial contribution from the Union budget for the Facility for the period from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2013
amounts to EUR 103,6 million, out of which EUR 23,6 million for the EPMF Guarantee Facility (EPMF-G) and EUR 80 million for
the EPMF _Fonds Commun de Placement_ — _Fonds d’Investissement Spécialisé_ (EPMF FCP-FIS).

The Facility is implemented by using the following types of actions, as appropriate:

— guarantees (EPMF-G),

— debt and equity instruments (FCP-FIS),

— support measures, such as communication activities, monitoring, control, audit and evaluation which are directly necessary for
the effective and efficient implementation of Decision No 283/2010/EU and for the achievement of its objectives.

The micro-credit guarantee window shall remain in full force and effect until 31 December 2020.

The FCP-FIS is expected to end on 30 April 2020.

No further budgetary commitments have been made by the Commission since the end of the commitment period.

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 103,6 million (cumulative budget for
EPMF Guarantee and EPMF FCP-FIS).

The target leverage effect of the Facility is 4,83 over the lifetime of the financial instruments (EPMF Guarantee and EPMF FCP-FIS).

Based on the target leverage of the Facility, it is estimated that the total amount of loan volumes mobilised would be around EUR
500 million.

The aggregate EPMF FCP-FIS budgetary commitments for the period 2010-2013 amount to a total of EUR 80 million. The target
volumes of lending to beneficiary persons and micro-enterprises are estimated to EUR 226,4 million for the EPMF (FCP-FIS) debt

Article 06 02 51 (in part) — Completion of trans-European networks programme.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The Marguerite Fund is a pan-European equity fund developed in the context of the financial crisis and in recognition of the need
for successful long-term infrastructure investment in Europe. It supports infrastructure investment within the transport (TEN-T),
energy (TEN-E) and renewables sectors in Member States and will primarily invest in greenfield projects.

The core sponsors include public long term investors from France (CDC), Italy (CdP), Germany (KfW), Spain (ICO) and Poland
(PKO) as well as the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the Commission. The size of the Marguerite Fund at final close is EUR
710 million.

Union aggregate budgetary commitments: EUR 80 million from the TEN-T budget

Expected results:

— 30 to 40 % of the total commitments invested in the transport sector,

— 25 to 35 % invested in the energy sector,

— 35 to 45 % invested in the renewable energies sector,

— at least 3,5 times the EU commitment to be invested into TEN-T eligible projects.

The Marguerite Fund has a maximum term of 20 years from the initial closing (December 2009), which may however be extended
for up to two additional one-year periods (up to December 2031). The investment period of the Fund ends in December 2016 (four
years after the final closing) with a possible extension of up to two additional one-year periods. The period was extended for one
year (December 2017).

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 80 million (fully committed in 2010).

No target leverage effect was indicated in the legal basis and no _ex ante_ evaluation was produced by Commission services before the
Commission decided to invest in the dedicated investment vehicle. However consultants prepared a market analysis assessing the
existence of an equity gap for European infrastructure for the founding investors of the Marguerite Fund in 2009 to which the
Commission services had access.

COMMISSION

_INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH POINT (E) OF ARTICLE 49(1) OF THE FINANCIAL REGULATION_

Between 2009 and 2016, the Marguerite Fund invested an amount of EUR 456 million in 12 projects (mainly equity and
mezzanine loans). The total amount of equity provided to those projects reached EUR 1 842 million at the end of 2016, whereas
the total amount of investment mobilised (equity and debt together) reached EUR 5 402 million ( [1] ) at the end of 2016. At this date
the Commission has paid to the Marguerite Fund EUR 43,72 million out of a commitment of EUR 80 million.

The current leverage effect amounts to 42 (ratio between total equity provided to projects and the amount paid by the EC = 1842 /
43,72), whereas the overall investment mobilised is 123-times the Union contribution.

Based on this leverage effect, it is estimated that for the entire duration of the programme the total amount of equity provided
would be around EUR 3 360 million, or almost EUR 10 000 million of overall investment mobilised.

(i) _**Reference to the basic act**_

Regulation (EU) No 1233/2010 of the European Parliament and the Council of 15 December 2010 amending Regulation (EC)
No 663/2009 establishing a programme to aid economic recovery by granting Community financial assistance to projects in the
[field of energy (OJ L 346, 30.12.2010, p. 5).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2010&mm=12&jj=30&type=L&nnn=346&pppp=0005&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

Article 32 02 52 (in part) — Completion of energy projects to aid economic recovery.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

On 1 July 2011, EUR 146,3 million from the European Energy Programme for Recovery (EEPR) were allocated to a new European
Energy Efficiency Fund — EEEF in the form of a specialised investment fund (SICAV). The EEEF invests in energy efficiency,
renewable energy projects, and clean urban transport particularly in urban settings, achieving at least 20 % energy saving or GHG/
CO 2 emission reduction.

The beneficiaries must be public authorities or public or private entities acting on their behalf, including ESCOs ( [1] ).

The EEEF was launched on 1 July 2011 with an initial volume of EUR 265 million: in addition to the Union contribution (EUR
125 million in junior ‘C-shares’), the European Investment Bank (EIB) invested EUR 75 million (mainly senior ‘A shares’), Cassa
Depositi e Prestiti SpA (CDP) EUR 60 million (mainly senior ‘A shares’); and the designated investment manager (Deutsche Bank)
EUR 5 million (mezzanine ‘B shares’).

The EEEF offers a range of non-standard financial products such as senior and junior loans, guarantees, equity participation or
forfeiting schemes which can be combined in a f lexible way with standard finance.

In addition, about EUR 20 million of the Union funding is available for technical assistance (in the form of grants) to help sponsors
make projects bankable for the EEEF. Finally, a EUR 1,3 million programme has been established to raise awareness of financing
methods and options for energy efficiency and renewable energy among national and regional authorities managing the Cohesion
Fund or the Structural Funds. EPEC ( [2] ) manages this programme.

In accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1233/2010, the deadline for allocating Union funds to investment projects and technical
assistance (TA) was 31 March 2014.

_Fund/Investment Manager_

Deutsche Bank is responsible i.e. for selecting projects and conducting a due diligence process before submitting the projects to the
EEEF’s Investment Committee for advice and to the Management Board for approval. Deutsche Bank also manages the TA
component, submitting TA propositions to the Commission’s DG ENER for approval.

_Investment Committee_

The Investment Committee is responsible for assessing projects submitted to it by the fund manager and giving recommendations
to the Management Board. Two EIB members and one member from CDP are appointed to the Investment Committee.

( [1] ) An energy service company (ESCO), via an energy performance contract (EPC), can enable a public authority to implement upfront investments (e.g. to
upgrade the performance levels of public buildings or to install efficient street lighting) without taking the financial risk.
( [2] ) The European PPP Expertise Centre (EPEC) is a joint initiative of the EIB, the Commission, Member States and candidate countries. EPEC helps
strengthen the capacity of its public sector members to enter into Public Private Partnership (PPP) transactions.

_INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH POINT (E) OF ARTICLE 49(1) OF THE FINANCIAL REGULATION_

_Management Board_

The Management Board has broad powers to administrate and manage the EEEF; it decides on the investments upon recommendation by the Investment Committee. However, it cannot decide on major issues (such as change of the statutes and
documentation) without approval by the Supervisory Board . It reports quarterly to the Supervisory Board. It is composed of
representatives from the Commission (1), the EIB (1, the chair) and the CDP (1).

_Supervisory Board_

The Supervisory Board’s main duties include a permanent supervision of the management of the EEEF, giving strategic advice to the
Management Board, proposing the annual EEEF business plan for shareholder approval, and approving changes in the investment
guidelines etc. It is composed of representatives from the Commission (2), the EIB (1) and the CDP (1).

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 146,3 million (fully committed in 2011, EUR
125 million to the EEEF, EUR 20 million in the form of a technical assistance facility (grant) and EUR 1,3 million for awareness
raising activities).

No target leverage effect was indicated in the legal basis and no full _ex ante_ evaluation was produced before the Commission decided
to invest in the dedicated investment vehicle, but in any case a business plan and risk scenarios were prepared.

The EEEF had successfully disbursed EUR 99,8 million of Union contribution to the allocated projects by the end of the investment
period (31 March 2014), providing innovative financing solutions to energy efficiency projects. As of 31 December 2016, EUR
128 million have been allocated to 12 projects that has generated some EUR 231 million of total investments. Out of these, the
EEEF has signed contracts with 11 projects for EUR 121 million, already generating 224 million final investments.

The achieved leverage at 31 December 2016 is 2,2. This is calculated as the ratio between the total amount of the investments
supported by EEEF (EUR 224 million) and the amount of the Union contribution actually disbursed (EUR 99,8 million).

Based on the current investment pipeline, it is estimated that the amount of investments expected to be made by eligible final
recipients due to the financing will reach EUR 561 million. The EEEF is open to new investors and can grow further.

One of the priorities of the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI) and of the new European Neighbourhood
Instrument (ENI), is promoting investment projects in European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) partner countries, the scope of which
covers the Neighbourhood Investment Facility (NIF).

The EU launched the NIF in 2007. The following eight Commission Decisions have been adopted for this instrument during the
period 2007-2013 for a total envelope of EUR 777,4 million (EUR 467,2 million for ENPI South budget line and EUR
310,2 million from ENPI East budget line): C(2007) 6280, C(2008) 2698, C(2009) 3951, C(2009) 8985, C(2010) 4400, C(2010)
7989, C(2011) 5547, C(2012) 4533 and C(2013) 1276. In 2014 additional commitments of EUR 381,7 million were approved:
EUR 369,4 million in Commission Decision C(2014) 5750 and a top-up of EUR 12,3 million from Commission Decision C(2013)
5300. In 2015 additional commitments of EUR 295,0 million were approved in Commission Decision C(2015) 2748. In 2016
additional commitments of EUR 224,5 million were approved in Commission Decisions C(2016) 3436 and C(2016) 8387. This
provides for aggregated figures for the 2007-2015 period of EUR 1 068 520 334,34 for the South and 610 125 902,58 for the
East (in total EUR 1 678 646 236,92). Of this total, only a part has been further invested in projects corresponding to financial
instruments. In aggregated figures for the 2007-2016 period, financial instruments correspond to investments of EUR
146 450 000 for the South and 38 300 000 for the East (in total EUR 184 750 000). The balance between this latter amount
and the aggregated NIF total mentioned above has been channelled through investment grants and technical assistance projects.

The NIF has included since the beginning of 2011 a Climate Change Window (CCW) under the Environment and the Sustainable
Management of Natural Resources including Energy Thematic Programme (ENRTP) of the Development Cooperation Instrument to
support the implementation of projects helping partner countries tackle climate change through mitigation and/or adaptation
measures. The NIF CCW is managed in a streamlined way and has in general the same rules and the same financing and
implementation modalities as the NIF.

COMMISSION

_INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH POINT (E) OF ARTICLE 49(1) OF THE FINANCIAL REGULATION_

The NIF’s overarching objective is to mobilise additional investments to support the establishment of an area of prosperity and good
neighbourliness involving the Union and neighbouring countries. In complementarity with other EU-funded programmes, the NIF
can foster sustainable, inclusive growth and a favourable investment climate in our partner countries.

Within this framework, the NIF pursues three strategic objectives, namely:

— establishing better energy and transport infrastructure interconnections between the Union and neighbouring countries and
among neighbouring countries themselves,

— addressing threats to our common environment including climate change,

— promoting smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, in particular through support for small and medium size enterprises.

The NIF operations will continue to support the implementation of the ENP Action Plans and focus on five main sectors: energy,
environment with a particular focus on climate change mitigation and adaptation, transport, social and small and medium
enterprise development.

_Geographical coverage and final recipients_

European Neighbourhood Policy partner countries directly eligible for the NIF are neighbourhood countries having signed an action
plan with the Union except for those that do not qualify because of their level of development. On a case by case basis, other
countries which are not directly eligible may benefit from NIF interventions taking into account regional or specific circumstances.
Their eligibility will have to be decided unanimously by Member States and the Commission.

Other final recipients will be the private sector and in particular the SMEs. Both multilateral and national European development
finance institutions might be direct beneficiaries and important stakeholders of the facility.

_Main technical characteristics_

Under the NIF, risk capital (equity and quasi-equity investments), risk-sharing instruments, guarantees, loans, other financing such
as investment grants, interest rate subsidies and technical assistance can be used.

_Duration and impact on the budget_

The decisions relating to the NIF are valid for the multiannual financial frameworks 2007-2013 and 2014-2020 and may be
extended further following decisions on the next multiannual financial framework.

The final date for contracting is 31 December 2017 relating to decisions from 2016. This is not the date of duration of the facility
but the final date for contracting of the individual decisions financing the facility. The duration of individual projects is established
on a case-by-case basis, depending on the type of instrument, with an indicative maximum of 180 months from the date of entry
into force of the financing agreement or, when none is concluded, from the adoption of the Annual Action Document financing the
NIF.

8387 on 7 December 2016 for a maximum contribution East and South of EUR 225,0 million included in the above table.

These volumes have a solely indicative character as the calculation disregards the time as well as the differentiation effects.

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period 2014-2020 amounts to EUR 150 million per year, for a
total of EUR 1 050 million.

The target leverage effect as indicated in the legal basis and in the _ex ante_ evaluation is 4 to 5 over the lifetime of the financial
instrument.

It is estimated that the total amount of EUR 1 678 million NIF funds for the period 2008-2016 would mobilise investments and
loans from European financial institutions of around EUR 15 941 million. With 9,5, this leverage effect by far exceeds the expected
leverage effect. These investments, in turn, are expected to support projects with a total value of about EUR 33 207 million.

[procedures for the implementation of the Union's instruments for financing external action (OJ L 77, 15.3.2014, p. 100), and in](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2014&mm=03&jj=15&type=L&nnn=077&pppp=0100&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)
particular Article 4(3) thereof.

Based on the first results from the Neighbourhood Investment Facility (NIF), the Commission proposed to set up investment
facilities targeting countries under the Development Cooperation Instrument (DCI) Regulation, initially in Central Asia, Asia and
Latin America. Two facilities were set up for Asia: the Investment Facility for Central Asia (IFCA) in 2010 and the Asian Investment
Facility (AIF) in 2011 for the period 2010-2013. These two facilities have been modelled on the NIF and have the same types of
objectives and scope as those defined in the NIF general framework agreed in March 2008 (cf. section on NIF).

As of end 2013, there have been three decisions for the IFCA financed through the 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 budgets and three
decisions for AIF financed through the 2011 and 2012 (jointly), 2013 and 2014 budgets.

AIF was recreated in 2014 in order to achieve the objectives of Regulation (EU) No 233/2014 for the period 2014-2020 through a
new financing decision of EUR 26 million whereas IFCA was recreated by the end of 2014 through a new financing decision of
EUR 20 million under the budget 2015.

In 2016, a total amount of EUR 20 million was allocated to IFCA and EUR 45 million to AIF.

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

_Policy objectives and scope_

The IFCA’s main purpose is to promote additional investments and key infrastructures with a priority focus in the first
implementation period on energy and environment. Based on the development of the Central Asia strategies, a later extension to
transport, SMEs, water/waste management and social infrastructure sectors in the Central Asian countries was envisaged.

The AIF’s main purpose is to promote additional investments and key infrastructure with a priority focus on climate change and
‘green’ investments in the areas of environment and energy and transport as well as in SMEs and social infrastructure. A later
extension to the transport sector could be envisaged.

_Geographical coverage and final recipients_

The final recipients of these two facilities are the countries of these two regions. Other final recipients will be the private sector and,
in particular SMEs.

Eligible finance institutions will be the entrusted entities and important stakeholders of these two facilities.

_Main technical characteristics_

The types of operations to be financed are the following:

— investment co-financing in public infrastructure projects;

— loan guarantee cost financing;

— interest rate subsidies;

— technical assistance;

— risk capital operations;

— any other risk-sharing mechanisms.

Possible management modes have been centralised (direct and indirect), joint and partially decentralised management and indirect
management (budget management mode in force for the use of 2014 funds).

_Duration and impact on the budget_

The IFCA and the AIF were initially established for the duration of the legal basis, i.e., until 31 December 2013. Whereas AIF has
already been recreated in 2014 in order to achieve the objectives of Regulation (EU) No 233/2014 for the period 2014-2020 IFCA
has also been recreated in 2015.

The final dates for contracting are 31 December 2016 for IFCA and 31 December 2016 for AIF, both related to decisions from
2015. For the financing decision taken in 2014 related to AIF the deadline for contracting is 31 December 2015. The duration of
individual projects is established on a case-by-case basis with a maximum of 120 months from the date of entry into force of the
financing agreement or, when none is concluded, from the adoption of the 2014 Action Document creating the AIF. The estimated
budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 340 million for AIF and EUR 140 million for IFCA.

_Policy objectives and scope_

The GEEREF is an innovative financing vehicle aiming to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy in developing countries
and economies in transition. Structured as a fund-of-funds, GEEREF’s strategy is to invest in — and thus help develop — regional
private equity funds whose investments will target small and medium-sized energy efficiency and renewable energy projects.

The objectives are to contribute to the expansion of renewable energy, energy efficiency and other related clean energy technologies
to markets and services in developing countries and economies in transition, with the objective to increase access to low carbon,
secure and affordable energy, and to help improve the economic and social circumstances of underserved or disadvantaged
populations, to encourage sustainable economic development, while promoting the protection of the environment.

_Geographical coverage and final recipients_

The scope of the GEEREEF is to support regional sub-funds for sub-Saharan Africa, Caribbean and Pacific Island states, the countries
of the European Neighbourhood Policy including Russia, Latin America, and Asia (including Central Asia and the Middle East).
There will be a special emphasis on serving the needs of the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries.

_Policy objectives and scope_

**ElectriFI**

The aims of the financial instruments are to (a) bridge the gaps in structuring and financing of investments addressing the lack of
access to clean, reliable and affordable electricity and energy services all over the world with a view to attracting the development
financing sector, and (b) de-risk investments to attract the interest of a wider range of financial institutions, including commercial
banks.

**AgriFI**

The main objective is to develop inclusive, sustainable and climate-smart agriculture based value chains. Agriculture has the
potential to generate growth, employment in rural areas and along the value chains, and to manage environmental services. To fully
exploit three priorities have been set:

(1) Produce knowledge and analyse experiences to help policy makers and investors to design strategies, policies and projects.

(2) Facilitate the establishment of public-private stakeholder alliances and strengthen capacities of various operators along the value
chain (farmers and their organisations, MSMEs, market organisations etc.) to improve governance, to access existing and new
markets (domestic and international), and to remain competitive.

(3) Increase investments in the agriculture value chain to start ‘rural transformations’ through blending mechanisms.

**Climate Change**

The action’s objectives are as follows:

— meeting the demand of low-carbon and climate change resilient infrastructure in sub-Saharan Africa;

The budgetary impact understood as the total financial envelope in terms of global commitments as of end 2016 for is EUR
193 311 212. It is estimated that investments of approximately EUR 1 400 million would be mobilised based on the total global
commitments.

The leverage effects are estimated as follows:

— total project cost (circa EUR 968 million / ElectriFI contribution (projects approved through a Commission decision following
positive opinion of the Board of the DCI Blending Framework: EUR 131 million) : 7,4;

— eligible European finance institutions resources (EUR 458 million) / ElectriFI contributions (projects approved through a
Commission decision following positive opinion of the Board of the DCI Blending Framework: EUR 131 million): 3,5.

_AgriFI_

Blended finance and technical assistance will aim at promoting investment in the smallholder and MSME agribusiness sector where
a high development impact is expected, but where high risks and/or low rates of return cannot attract public lenders or commercial
financiers without grant support. The grant support will be provided only when there is high development impact, additionality,
adherence to social, environmental and fiscal standards, or when innovative technologies are being used that can potentially be
replicated.

The budgetary impact understood as the total financial envelope in terms of global commitments as of end 2016 is EUR
69 000 000. It is estimated that about EUR 538 million will be mobilised with respect to this global envelope.

The leverage effects are estimated as follows:

— total project cost (circa EUR 234 million / Union contribution (projects approved through a Commission decision following a
positive opinion of the Board of the DCI Blending Framework: EUR 30 million) : 7,8;

— eligible European finance institutions resources (EUR 31 million) / Union contributions (projects approved through a

The financial instrument of the Union for the Guarantee Facility I contributes to achieving the objectives of enhancing socioeconomic growth of the Western Balkans.

Its major objectives are the creation of preconditions for the emergence and growth of innovative and high-potential companies.
The instrument will guarantee SME loan portfolios issued by commercial banks for new SME lending. This will entail improving
SME access to lending and potentially lowering the cost of borrowing.

Under the Guarantee Facility, guarantees of first loss of new loans to targeted SMEs with a guarantee rate of up to 70 % and a
guarantee cap of up to 25 % in the overall loan portfolio can be used. Exact guarantee rate and cap is being determined on a caseby-case basis.

The Commission implements the Guarantee Facility under indirect management in accordance with Article 139 of the Financial
Regulation (through a fiduciary and management agreement). Under indirect management, the Commission may entrust
implementation tasks to the European Investment Bank (EIB) Group, including the European Investment Fund (EIF). The
Guarantee Facility is to be implemented under indirect management, with the implementation tasks entrusted to the EIF.

The Guarantee Facility started in 2013 and will guarantee loans with maturity until 2023. The geographical coverage will be the

The European Fund for Southeast Europe (EFSE) is a form of public-private-partnership. Its objective is to attract capital from the
private sector thereby leveraging public donor funds that will assist the development of the private sector in the region. EFSE
extends loans to local commercial banks and micro-finance institutions in the Western Balkans for on-lending to micro and small
enterprises and households. The European Investment Fund (EIF) manages the EFSE, the latter generating impacts at three different
levels:

— supporting micro and small enterprises as the backbone of the local economies, thereby contributing to generating income and
creating employment,

— satisfying the basic need of decent shelter,

— strengthening local financial markets.

The EFSE has a revolving nature and has an undetermined duration. Extension of the underlying Delegation Agreements
establishing a trusteeship for the IPA funds in EFSE with the EIF was included under IPA II, multi-country programme 2015 and
the agreement signed in December 2016.

The total amount of the Union contributions to EFSE, i.e. EUR 88 968 090, includes share and cash transfers from other
instruments during the period 2006-2011.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

No commitment for additional financing from IPA II of the new shares subscriptions in EFSE took place in 2016.

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period as at 31 December 2016 equals the total allocation to
date, i.e. EUR 88 968 090.

The achieved leverage effect of the EFSE at present is in the order of 40.

Based on the achieved leverage of the EFSE, it is estimated that it will generate in order of EUR 3 600 million of loans to eligible
final recipients.

Regulation (EU) No 231/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2014 establishing an Instrument for Pre[accession Assistance (IPA II) (OJ L 77, 15.3.2014, p. 11).](http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Result.do?aaaa=2014&mm=03&jj=15&type=L&nnn=077&pppp=0011&RechType=RECH_reference_pub&Submit=Search)

Item 22 02 04 01 — Multi-country programmes, regional integration and territorial cooperation (in 2015 budget nomenclature).

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The mission of the Green for Growth Fund, south-east Europe is to contribute, in the form of a public private partnership with a
layered risk/return structure, to enhancing energy efficiency and fostering renewable energies in south-east Europe and Turkey,
predominantly through the provision of dedicated financing to businesses and households via partnering with financial institutions
and direct financing.

GGF’s investments seek to achieve a 20 % reduction in energy consumption and/or a 20 % reduction in CO 2 emissions, by

— refinancing financial institutions (local commercial banks, non-bank financial institutions such as microfinance institutions and
leasing companies and other selected financial institutions) providing loans to households, businesses, municipalities and public
sector for energy efficiency measures or renewable energy projects. Investments through financial institutions will constitute the
majority of GGF’s investments,

— providing direct financing to non-financial institutions (energy service companies, renewable energy companies or projects,
small scale renewable energy and energy efficiency service and supply companies) that meet GGF energy-saving and/or
emissions targets, and comply with the technical criteria and GGF exclusion list.

The GGF has a revolving nature and has an undetermined duration. A new underlying Delegation Agreement establishing a
trusteeship for the IPA funds in GGF with EIF has been signed in December 2016, with allocations for the trusteeship fee from IPA
II, multi-country programme 2015. The total amount of the Union contributions to the instrument, i.e. EUR 38 633 232, includes
subscription to C-shares.

_INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH POINT (E) OF ARTICLE 49(1) OF THE FINANCIAL REGULATION_

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

An additional financing from IPA II for the new C-shares subscriptions in GGF is foreseen in Q2 2017 at the level of EUR
20 million (other than EUR 1,6 million of additional allocation towards the trusteeship fees of EIF until end 2023).

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period as at 31 December 2016 equals the total allocation to
date, i.e. EUR 38 633 232.

The leverage effect of the GGF at present is in the order of 11,42 (total size of the fund, divided by Union contribution). It is
estimated that the leverage will generate in excess of EUR 441 million of loans to eligible final recipients.

Crisis Response Package, IPA 2009/021-373.

(ii) _**Budget lines corresponding to the relevant operations**_

Item 22 02 51 — Completion of former pre-accession assistance (prior to 2014) (in 2015 budget nomenclature).

(iii) _**General description of the financial instruments, including their duration and their impact on the budget**_

The overall objective of the SME Recovery Support Loan for Turkey is to mitigate the crisis impact for SMEs and contribute to the
development of the Turkish economy and employment sector. The main objective is to support SMEs with concrete productive
investments by providing access to attractive and longer-dated debt financing. The co-financing of loans is to be provided to local
commercial banks operating in Turkey (the ‘financial intermediaries’) for the benefit of eligible investments carried out by SMEs. In
the context of the action, the European Investment Bank (EIB) shall extend loans from its own resources together with the Union
contribution loans.

Individual SMEs are eligible for financing from a financial intermediary using funding available through the action (each a ‘sub-loan’)
up to a maximum amount of EUR 5,0 million and a minimum amount of EUR 200 000 and with a minimum maturity of four

years.

The financial Commission commitment of the instrument amounts to EUR 30,0 million (of which EUR 360 000 are for
management fees). It is a joint management action with the EIB who contributes with EUR 120,0 million. The action will end in
December 2017. A one-year extension was approved in December 2016 in order to give the EIB the time to explore the existence
of the pre-conditions to continue the action with a second round of sub-loans, as already set out in the Contribution Agreement
signed with the EIB in 2009. The second round of sub-loans would use the Union contribution which has been repaid to EIB by
financial intermediaries together with new resources of EIB. A second round is likely to entail an extension of the termination date
of at least three years.

(iv) _**Envisaged operations, including target volumes based on the leverage effect arising from the existing financial instruments**_

The 2009 Union commitment of EUR 30 million has supported a lending volume of EUR 150 million to the two participating
Turkish banks.

The estimated budget allocation foreseen for the total programming period amounts to EUR 30 million.

The target leverage effect as indicated in the legal basis and in the _ex ante_ evaluation is ‘1 to 10’ over the lifetime of the financial
instrument.

Based on the target leverage of the instrument, it is estimated that the total amount of loan volumes mobilised would be around
EUR 300 million for the entire duration of the programme. In the case of a second round of sub-loans with additional EIB funds the
actual leverage of the initiative would change.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover the cost of information and communication measures undertaken by the Office.

The Office’s external information and communication strategy is central to its work. The Office was set up as an
independent investigative body and must therefore have its own communications strategy. 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.

_Remarks_

This appropriation is intended to cover costs for services related to the establishment and payment of entitlements for
officials, temporary and other staff of the European Committee of the Regions. Since such services may include,
amongst others, services offered by the Commission’s Office for the Administration and Payment of Individual
Entitlements, interinstitutional cooperation will be enhanced and benefits will result from economies of scale, thus
bringing about savings. Such services may include the following:

— the transfer of pension rights from and to the country of origin,

— the calculation of pension rights,

— the establishment and payment of resettlement allowances,

— the management of files relating to unemployment benefits and the payment of benefits to those who qualify.

It is also intended to cater for expenditure for the provision of other horizontal human resources related services to
officials, temporary and other staff of the European Committee of the Regions (and their family members) throughout
their career such as opening up access for European Committee of the Regions staff to the activities organised by the
Commission’s Welcome Office and the handling of expat administrative support files related to Protocol No 7 on the
privileges and immunities of the European Union.

In the event that the handling of other non-strategic human resources processes with pecuniary impact (such as the
establishment of individual rights pursuant to the provisions of Annex VII to the Staff Regulations) would be
outsourced, the related expenditure shall also be covered from this appropriation.

In order to generate further economies of scale, the provision of such services will, as a rule, be operated through
enhanced interinstitutional cooperation.
