The chapter on current regional trends shows that the GDP per head in "Convergence" regions (regions whose GDP per head is under 75% of the Community average) grew 50% faster than in the rest of the EU between 2000 and 2005.
Poglavje o sedanjih regionalnih smernicah razvoja kaže, da je BDP na prebivalca v „konvergenčnih“ regijah (regijah, v katerih je BDP na prebivalca nižji od 75 % povprečja Skupnosti) naraščal 50 % hitreje kot v drugih delih EU med letoma 2000 in 2005.
The unemployment rate in these regions also dropped by 3%.
Prav tako se je stopnja nezaposlenosti v teh regijah znižala za 3 %.
The report also identifies sectors with strong mediumterm growth potential in all EU regions, notably: nancial and business services; trade, transport and communication; high and medium-tech manufacturing.
V poročilu so tudi opredeljeni sektorji z močnim srednjeročnim potencialom za rast v vseh regijah EU, zlasti: nančne in poslovne storitve; trgovina, transport in komunikacije; proizvodnja visoke in srednje tehnologije.
In general, the report stresses the need for more investment in innovation, education and training in order to cope with regional disparities and to close the gap between Europe and the US as regards investment in higher education.
Na splošno je v poročilu poudarjena potreba po več naložbah v inovativnost, izobraževanje in usposabljanje, da bi se spoprijeli z razlikami v razvoju regij in zmanjšali vrzel med Evropo in ZDA glede naložb v visoko izobraževanje.
Further to the public consultation, carried out between September 2007 and February 2008, the report shows a large consensus for an ambitious European Cohesion Policy after 2013.
Glede javnega posvetovanja, ki je potekalo od septembra 2007 do februarja 2008, poročilo kaže veliko soglasje za ambiciozno evropsko kohezijsko politiko po letu 2013.
The results suggest that in future the focus should be on priorities such as innovation, education, support for SMEs, EU-wide infrastructure and the ght against climate change.
Po rezultatih sodeč, bi se v prihodnosti morali osredotočiti na prednostne naloge, kot so inovativnost, izobraževanje, podpora MSP, infrastruktura na celotnem območju EU in boj proti podnebnim spremembam.
There is also a call for stronger coordination between Cohesion Policy and other EU sectoral policies, notably rural development policy.
Prav tako pozivajo k okrepljenemu usklajevanju kohezijske politike z drugimi sektorskimi politikami EU, zlasti politiko za razvoj podeželja.
Finally, contributions also suggest that Cohesion Policy would benefit from further simplification and greater involvement of local and regional authorities, whilst co-operation between regions is seen as one of the areas delivering most in terms of European added value.
Nazadnje pa prispevki tudi kažejo, da bi kohezijski politiki koristili dodatna poenostavitev in večja vključenost lokalnih in regionalnih oblasti, medtem ko za sodelovanje med regijami velja, da je to eno izmed področij, ki prispeva največ v smislu evropske dodane vrednosti.
EGTCs making co-operation easier
Z EZTS je sodelovanje lažje
Promoting the new tool, “European Grouping of Territorial Co-operation” (EGTC), was the main objective of a conference in Brussels on June 19, organised jointly by the European Commission and the Committee of the Regions, in co-operation with the Slovenian Presidency of the European Union and the European Parliament.
Spodbujanje novega orodja, „evropskega združenja za teritorialno sodelovanje“ (EZTS), je bil glavni cilj konference, ki je bila v Bruslju 19. junija in ki sta jo skupaj organizirala Evropska komisija in Odbor regij v sodelovanju s slovenskim predsedstvom Evropski uniji in Evropskim parlamentom.
The EGTC is a new European legal instrument offered to Member States, regional and local authorities, associations and any other public bodies to overcome bottlenecks to cross-border, transnational and interregional cooperation.
EZTS je nov evropski pravni instrument, ki je na voljo državam članicam, regionalnim in lokalnim oblastem, združenjem in katerim koli drugim javnim telesom za odpravljanje ozkih grl pri čezmejnem, nadnacionalnem in medregionalnem sodelovanju.
The EGTC instrument was established by Regulation 1082/2006/EC of the European Parliament and the Council on 5 July 2006.
Instrument EZTS je bil ustanovljen z Uredbo Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta št. 1082/2006/ES 5. julija 2006.
In its plenary sessions and three parallel workshops, the conference highlighted the main advantages of the EGTC instrument - in particular, the fact that it is a single legal body with a single set of rules, removing the need to sign an international agreement.
Na plenarnih zasedanjih in treh sočasnih delavnicah je konferenca poudarila glavne prednosti instrumenta EZTS - zlasti dejstvo, da je ta enotno pravno telo z enotnimi pravili, zaradi česar ni treba podpisati mednarodnega sporazuma.
Another key advantage is that EGTCs are also allowed to respond directly to calls for projects and act as the single managing authority of a co-operation programme.
Druga ključna prednost pa je, da se lahko EZTS neposredno prijavijo na razpise za zbiranje predlogov in delujejo kot enotni upravljalni organ programa sodelovanja.
The EGTC regulation requires Member States to adopt national legislation to facilitate the implementation of EGTCs.
Uredba o EZTS vsebuje zahtevo, naj države članice sprejmejo nacionalno zakonodajo, ki omogoča izvajanje EZTS. Rok za to je bil 1. avgust 2007.
To date, 13 Member States have adopted national provisions to make the regulation effective.
Do zdaj je 13 držav članic sprejelo nacionalne predpise, ki omogočajo izvajanje Uredbe.
They are: Bulgaria, Denmark, Estonia, Greece, Spain, France, Lithuania, Hungary, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and the United Kingdom.
To so: Bolgarija, Danska, Estonija, Grčija, Španija, Francija, Litva, Madžarska, Portugalska, Romunija, Slovaška, Slovenija in Združeno kraljestvo.
The other remaining Member States have reported progress in the adoption of national provisions.
Preostale države članice pa poročajo o napredku pri sprejemanju nacionalnih predpisov.
As Commissioner Hübner said in her concluding speech, "the setting up of an EGTC is a clear political signal in favour of co-operation (…).
Kot je komisarka Hübner dejala v sklepnem govoru: „ustanovitev EZTS je jasno politično znamenje podpore sodelovanju (...).
It is worth remembering that an EGTC can be used beyond the frame of the Structural Funds.
Dobro si je zapomniti, da lahko EZTS deluje zunaj okvira strukturnih skladov.
An EGTC can also be set up to manage a project under the 7th Framework Programme led by DG Research and Technological Development, under the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme led by DG Enterprise or under the programmes led by DG Environment." http://ec.europa.eu/regional_policy/conferences/gect/index_en.htm
EZTS se lahko ustanovi tudi za upravljanje projekta v okviru Sedmega okvirnega programa, ki ga vodi GD za raziskave in tehnološki razvoj, programa za konkurenčnost in inovativnost, ki ga vodi GD za podjetništvo, ali programov, ki jih vodi GD za okolje.“ http://ec.europa.eu/regional_policy/conferences/gect/index_en.htm
Three EGTCs are already operational: one between France and Belgium, involving the cities of Lille, Tournai and Kortrijk; a second between Hungary and Slovakia in the region of Ister-Granum and a third between Spain and Portugal at the border of Galicia and Norte.
Tri EZTS so že začela delovati: eno med Francijo in Belgijo, ki vključuje mesta Lille, Tournai in Kortrijk; drugo med Madžarsko in Slovaško v regiji Ister-Granum, tretje pa med Španijo in Portugalsko na meji med pokrajinama Galicija in Norte.
Several others are being set up.
Še več drugih pa se jih ustanavlja.

Cohesion Policy investment supports Lisbon Agenda
Naložbe kohezijske politike prispevajo k programu lizbonske strategije
With an allocation of €200 billion supporting the objectives of the Lisbon Strategy, Cohesion Policy is maximising the potential of the regions to act as knowledge transfer networks – exploiting the benets of geographical proximity to boost interaction between institutions, finance, research and development bodies and the labour force.
Kohezijska politika z dodelitvijo 200 milijard EUR za cilje lizbonske strategije povečuje možnost regij, da delujejo kot omrežja za prenos znanja, in izkorišča prednosti geografske bližine za krepitev povezav med institucijami, finančnimi, raziskovalnimi in razvojnimi organi ter delovno silo.
A guide just out, published by DG REGIO, takes an in-depth look at the large variety of innovative projects, co-nanced under the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
Najnovejši priročnik, ki ga je objavil GD REGIO, poglobljeno obravnava zelo raznolike inovativne projekte, ki se so-nancirajo na podlagi Evropskega sklada za regionalni razvoj (ESRR).
The guide – out on 1 July – will help to boost contact and cooperation between project managers, desk ocers, analysts and others aiming to develop solid methodologies for better analysis and application.
Priročnik, ki je bil objavljen 1. julija, bo prispeval h krepitvi stikov in sodelovanja med vodji projektov, referenti, analitiki in drugimi udeleženci za razvoj zanesljive metodo-logije za boljše analize in izvajanje.
This was the message presented by Regional Policy Commissioner Hübner in her talk on harnessing the Cohesion Policy’s full potential to realise the Lisbon Strategy’s objectives of growth and jobs and the part SMEs must be encouraged to play.
To je sporočilo, ki ga je predstavila komisarka za regionalno politiko Hübner v svojem govoru o izkoriščanju vseh možnosti kohezijske politike za uresničevanje ciljev rasti in ustvarjanja delovnih mest iz lizbonske strategije ter vloge, h kateri je treba spodbujati MSP.
European Investment Bank, which give those wishing to start up a company, but who do not have the necessary collateral, up to €25 000.
subjektom, ki želijo ustanoviti podjetje, vendar za to nimajo potrebnega zavarovanja, dodeli do 25 000 EUR. Podoben finančni instrument za ustanavljanje novih MSP je pobuda JEREMIE, ki upravlja sredstva za obvladovanje finančnih posledic nepričakovanih izgub.
The Commissioner outlined the potential synergy between the two policies, and the way in which SMEs can be both a tool and an objective, in Bologna, 4 July and reiterated her message in Brussels, 9 July.
Komisarka je 4. julija v Bologni opisala možno sinergijo med obema politikama in ravnanje, da so lahko MSP sredstvo in cilj, ter to sporočilo ponovila 9. julija v Bruslju.
“Small and medium sized businesses are the backbone of the EU’s economy and a key Cohesion Policy partner promoting growth and jobs.”
„Mala in srednje velika podjetja so temelj gospodarstva EU in ključni partner v kohezijski politiki za spodbujanje rasti in ustvarjanja delovnih mest.“
Although there are a variety of mechanisms in place to help SMEs set up and survive, the Commissioner is not letting up on the drive to ensure Europe’s small businesses thrive, “We want to give them a launch pad to become world class in their respective domains, through the Cohesion Policy.”
Čeprav je vzpostavljenih veliko mehanizmov za pomoč pri ustanavljanju in ohranjanju MSP, komisarka odločno poudarja nadaljnja prizadevanja za zagotovitev uspešnosti malih podjetij v Evropi: „S kohezijsko politiko jim želimo zagotoviti izhodišče, da bi na svojih področjih dosegla svetovno raven.“
The type of support granted to tourism in costal regions comes under scrutiny in a study conducted by the European Parliament.
Vrsta pomoči, namenjena turizmu na obalnih območjih, se preuči v študiji, ki jo izvede Evropski parlament.
The ERDF does not place tourism at the top of its priorities but it is apparent that the industry plays a signicant role in the integration of policies and institutions in costal areas.
ESRR turizma ne uvršča med svoje prednostne naloge, vendar je očitno, da ima indu-strija pomembno vlogo pri povezovanju politik in institucij na obalnih območjih.
Environmental sustainability, both in relation to the industry and to the policies for costal regions, emerges as the most signicant issue.
Priznanje bistvene vloge, ki jo imajo MSP v gospodarstvu EU, dokazuje dodelitev finančnih sredstev, ki jih bodo prejela v obdobju 2007–2013.
Water and Regional Development
Voda in regionalni razvoj
SMEs acting in clusters and networks across borders throughout Europe can boost a sense of ‘ownership’ of the Lisbon agenda at local and regional levels.
MSP, ki delujejo v čezmejnih skupinah in mrežah po Evropi, lahko okrepijo občutek odgovornosti za program lizbonske strategije na lokalni in regionalni ravni.
At the same time, new ways of measuring the contribution of Cohesion Policy to the Lisbon objectives could draw three key policies closer – the strategic guidelines of the Cohesion Policy, existing Employment Strategy Guidelines and the Broad Economic Policy Guidelines of the Lisbon process.
Hkrati bi lahko novi načini vrednotenja, kako kohezijska politika prispeva k lizbonskim ciljem, dodatno povezali te tri politike, tj. strateške smernice za kohezijsko politiko, obstoječe smernice evropske strategije zaposlovanja in širše smernice gospodarske politike iz lizbonskega procesa.
Complementing this funding are a range of measures including the Small Business Act which has been passed to cut red tape and enable SMEs reach their full potential.
To financiranje dopolnjuje sklop ukrepov, vključno z Aktom za mala podjetja, ki je bil sprejet za zmanjšanje birokracije in podporo MSP pri izkoriščanju vseh njihovih možnosti.
Other support mechanisms include those helping business infrastructure and SME friendly, micro-credit initiatives created in cooperation with the http://ec.europa.eu/commission_barroso/hubner/speeches/pdf/2008/04072008_bologna_en.pdf
Drugi podporni mehanizmi vključujejo mehanizme za zagotavljanje pomoči poslovni infrastrukturi in pobude glede mikroposojil, ki so prijazne do MSP in so se oblikovale v sodelovanju z Evropsko investicijsko banko. Na njihovi podlagi se http://ec.europa.eu/commission_barroso/hubner/speeches/pdf/2008/04072008_bologna_en.pdf

Komisarka za regionalno politiko Hübner je 26. junija 2008 na svetovni razstavi EXPO 2008 v Zaragozi obiskala paviljon EU.
She called for an eec-tive strategy to be put in place to ensure both the EU’s competitiveness and its ecient use of water resources.
Pozvala je k sprejetju uspešne strategije, ki bi zagotovila konkurenčnost EU in učinkovito rabo vodnih virov v EU.
She also underlined the way in which structural funds allocated to water-related projects create new capability in the regions.
Izpostavila je tudi, kako strukturna sredstva, dodeljena za projekte na področju voda, ustvarjajo nove zmogljivosti v regijah.

Territorial cohesion high on agenda of French EU presidency
Ozemeljska kohezija kot ključna prednostna naloga med francoskim predsedovanjem EU
Commitment to territorial cohesion to mark French EU presidency, French minister for town and country planning, Mr Hubert Falco, tells Committee of the Regions (19 June).
Francoski minister za prostorsko načrtovanje Hubert Falco je 19. junija v Odboru regij izjavil, da bo francosko predsedovanje EU zaznamovala zavezanost ozemeljski koheziji.
Territorial cohesion should be pursued as one of the main objectives of Regional Policy, much in the same way as economic and social cohesion, underlined Mr Falco.
Gospod Falco je poudaril, da je treba ozemeljsko kohezijo podobno kot gospodarsko in socialno kohezijo uresničevati kot enega od glavnih ciljev regionalne politike.
Mr Falco underlined France’s high-level support for European Regional Policy.
Gospod Falco je izpostavil, da Francija odločno podpira evropsko regionalno politiko.
Mr François Fillon, the French Prime Minister, is expected to attend the OPEN DAYS for the European Week of Regions and cities which starts on 6 October.
Gospod François Fillon, francoski predsednik vlade, naj bi se udeležil DNEVOV ODPRTIH VRAT, ki bodo potekali med evropskim tednom regij in mest, ki se začne 6. oktobra.
The conference on territorial cohesion and the future of Cohesion Policy will be organised by the French presidency in partnership with the Committee of the Regions and the European Commission and the Association des régions de France in Paris, on 30 and 31 October.
Francosko predsedstvo bo v sodelovanju z Odborom regij in Evropsko komisijo ter združenjem francoskih regij (fr. Association des régions de France) 30. in 31. oktobra v Parizu organiziralo konferenco o ozemeljski koheziji in prihodnosti kohezijske politike.
Speaking before the Committee of the Regions, the French minister identied four major Regional Policy objectives to be pursued over the next six months.
Francoski minister je v svojem govoru v Odboru regij opredelil štiri glavne cilje regionalne politike, ki jih je treba uresničevati v naslednjih šestih mesecih.
These include economic and social cohesion as part of Europe’s drive for competitiveness, the European Social Fund, ultra-peripheral regions and the Territorial Agenda, as well as the Urban Development Charter.
Ti cilji vključujejo gospodarsko in socialno kohezijo kot del prizadevanj Evrope za konkurenčnost, Evropski socialni sklad, najbolj obrobne regije in teritorialno agendo ter listino o urbanem razvoju.
These events come alongside the informal meeting of regional ministers in Marseille on 24 and 26 November, and the Urban Forum in Montpellier in December will conclude the regional policy events of the French presidency.
Ti dogodki dopolnjujejo neuradno srečanje regionalnih ministrov 24.–26. novembra v Marseillu, forum mest, ki bo potekal decembra v Montpellieru, pa bo med francoskim predsedovanjem sklepni dogodek regionalne politike.
Also mentioned was the possibility of extending funding for energy-ecient housing under the European Regional Development Fund to all 27 EU countries – it is currently only available to the 12 new member countries.
Omenil je tudi možnost razširitve financiranja za energetsko učinkovita stanovanja na podlagi Evropskega sklada za regionalni razvoj na vseh 27 držav EU, saj so ta sredstva zdaj na voljo le 12 novim državam članicam.
The role of local and regional authorities in the framework of the new Mediterranean Union was also touched on.
Obravnavala se je tudi vloga lokalnih in regionalnih organov v okviru nove Sredozemske unije.
This would be an opportunity to extend the territorial dimension beyond the scope of the current Cohesion Policy.
To bi zagotovilo priložnost za razširitev ozemeljske razsežnosti zunaj področja uporabe sedanje kohezijske politike.
Central Europe Programme (2007–13) shares its visions
S programom Srednja Evropa (2007–2013) se izmenjujejo vizije
Economic, environmental and social development in Central Europe is to receive support through €246 million worth of funding under a European Territorial Cooperation Programme.
Za gospodarski, okoljski in socialni razvoj v srednji Evropi se bo zagotovila finančna pomoč 246 milijonov EUR iz programa evropskega teritorialnega sodelovanja.
To highlight the programmes opportunities and objectives a kick-off forum was held in Vienna.
Na Dunaju je potekal uvodni forum za opredelitev priložnosti in ciljev programov.
•Environmental responsibility – protecting natural resources through risk reduction, and making use of renewable energy resources while increasing energy ecient technologies;
–dostopnost do srednje Evrope in znotraj nje – vzpostavljanje varne in trajnostne mobilnosti, izboljšanje logistike in vlaganja v IKT za spodbujanje medsebojne povezljivosti;
‘Sharing visions, creating projects, cooperating for success,’ was held on 2 and 3 July, and brought together those active in the field, providing them with the chance to exchange project ideas, find partners and get a clearer idea of what type of projects could gain funding.
Forum z naslovom „Izmenjava vizij, ustvarjanje projektov, sodelovanje za uspeh“ je potekal 2. in 3. julija ter združil udeležence, dejavne na tem področju, in jim s tem zagotovil priložnost za izmenjavo zamisli za projekte, iskanje partnerjev in boljše razumevanje, kakšne vrste projektom se lahko dodelijo finančna sredstva.
•Increasing competitiveness and attracting investment to Central European regions and cities – aiming to improve quality of life by making eective use of territorial cooperation to adapt to social and demographic changes.
–okoljska odgovornost – zaščita naravnih virov z zmanjševanjem tveganja ter uporaba obnovljivih virov energije in razširjanje energetsko učinkovite tehnologije;
The event was opened by the Lord Mayor of Vienna, Mr Häupl and video message by Commissioner Hübner was broadcast, before Mr Stöckl of the CENTRAL EUROPE Managing Authority took the Chair of the first plenary session on the visions, programme framework and funding priorities.
Dogodek je odprl župan Dunaja, gospod Häupl, poleg tega pa se je predvajalo videosporočilo komisarke Hübner, preden je gospod Stöckl iz upravljavskega organa programa Srednja Evropa prevzel vodenje prvega plenarnega zasedanja o vizijah, okviru programa in prednostnih nalogah na področju financiranja.
The event was then split into four parallel workshops:
Dogodek je nato potekal v štirih vzporednih delavnicah:
The kick-off forum also included specic committees on monitoring, management, auditing and technical queries from member states underlining the programme’s total commitment to quality management.
Uvodni forum je vključeval tudi posebne odbore za spremljanje, upravljanje, revizijo in tehnična vprašanja držav članic, kar dokazuje, da je program v celoti zavezan upravljanju kakovosti.
