Acting on a Commission proposal , the Council decided on 11 Septemner 1979
(OJ L 231 of 13 September 1979 ) to authorize the financing of projects
proposed under a multiannual programme to improve competitivity in the
data-processing sector and to promote the development of data-processirig
in accordance with its Resolution of 15 July 1974 «
This programme calls for the following action to be taken :
(a)    Standardization measures ,
(b )   Coordination in the field of public procurement ,
(c)    Collaboration between research centres ,
(d)    Studies on the state of the datar-processing sector , the effects on
       employment and legal protection for computer programs ,
( e ) Community grants to the industry or users with a view to developing
       software products and applications ,
( f ) Studies in the field of peri–informatics and micro–electronic
       technology.
The estimated cost of these measures over four years is 25 m EUA , of
which 2 m EUA in appropriations for commitment and 1 m EUA in appropriations
for payment for 1979 *
The following activities could already be launched before the end of 1979s
 (a ) Two or three studies on "the state of the industry" ( 200 000 EUA),
 (b ) Studies for the preparation of the proposed micro-electronic
       programme ( 300 000 EUA ),

       projects under the system of support for the development of applications :
       EDP communi cati on system between ports (1 100 000 EUA) and a hydrological
       study ( 400 000 EUA ).
Expenditure is to be charged to Item 3702 ( Community projects for the
development of data-processing ). At present , there is only a token

In order to cover the estimated expenditure for 1979 » 2 m EUA in
appropriations for commitment and 1 m EUA in appropriations for payment
must be transferred from Chapter 100 (Ho 18 ) to Item 3702 of the Budget
for 1979 .
