Pet držav članic je prejelo skoraj tri četrtine celote plačil. Po vrstnem redu: Španija, Nemčija, Italija, Portugalska, Grčija.
The European Urban Knowledge Network (EUKN) has launched an Internet portal that provides access to substantial useful information on urban and regional development.
Evropsko omrežje centrov za urbano znanje (European Urban Knowledge Network, EUKN) je odprlo spletni portal in omogočilo dostop do vrste informacij, uporabnih na področju urbanega in regionalnega razvoja.
In the 10 new Member States, the payments in 2004 (EUR 1 550 million) largely consisted of advances to create the rolling funds to help programme realisation.
V desetih novih državah članicah so plačila v letu 2004 (1 550 milijonov evrov) predstavljala predvsem predplačila za spodbujanje uresničevanja programov.

On 24 November in Brussels, before an audience of 500 representatives of Member States, regions and banks, European Commissioner Danuta Hübner presented two new initiatives — Jaspers and Jeremie — aiming at financing employment, growth and cohesion in European Union regions. She also underlined the perspective of a close cooperation with international financial institutions (IFI) in favour of social housing and urban renovation.
Pred 500 predstavniki držav članic, regij in bank, ki so se 24. novembra zbrali v Bruslju, je komisarka Danuta Hübner predstavila dve novi pobudi – Jaspers in Jeremie – za financiranje zaposlovanja, rasti in kohezije v regijah Evropske unije, in orisala perspektivo tesnega sodelovanja z mednarodnimi finančnimi institucijami (MFI) v korist socialnih stanovanj in prenove mest.

People attending the conference of 24 November also gave a favourable welcome to the proposition of a third initiative aiming at supporting the development of ‘sustainable communities’thanks to a common approach between the Commission, the EIB, the EBRD and the Development Bank of the European Council (CEB) in order to finance actions regarding social housing and urban renovation in the framework of the 2007–13 programmes.
Sodelujoči na konferenci dne 24. novembra so poleg tega naklonjeno sprejeli še tretjo pobudo, ki naj bi nudila podporo razvoju„trajnostnih skupnosti“, in sicer s skupnim pristopom Komisije, EIB, EBOR in Razvojne banke Sveta Evrope za financiranje aktivnosti na področju socialnih stanovanj in prenove mest v okviru programov za obdobje od 2007 do 2013.
The strengthening of this cooperation will soon be part of a protocol agreement.
Krepitev tega sodelovanja bo v prihodnosti predmet protokola sporazuma.
The use of Structural Funds is more important, more effective and more qualitative when the authorities at national, regional and local levels set up an appropriate cooperation with socioeconomic partners and representatives of civil society to implement the project.
Uporaba strukturnih skladov je bolj intenzivna, učinkovita in kakovostna, kadar nacionalni, regionalni in lokalni organi upravljanja vzpostavijo ustrezno sodelovanje s socialno-ekonomskimi partnerji in predstavniki civilne družbe na področju izvajanja projektov.
That is one of the conclusions of the discussion paper published on 24 November by the Directorate-General for Regional Policy of the European Commission.
To je eden od glavnih zaključkov razmisleka, ki ga je 24. novembra objavil Generalni direktorat za regionalno politiko pri Evropski komisiji.

Določeno število partnerjev je ocenilo, da njihova vloga ni bila dovolj poznana in priznana; zahtevali so bolj natančna pravila in več transparentnosti.

Knowledge society: the example of the northern experience
Družba znanja: nordijska izkušnja kot vzgled
The conference‘Towards a knowledge society — the nordic experience’was held in Gothenburg (Sweden) on 14 and 15 November 2005.‘Investment in knowledge brings jobs and growth to Europe’, declared Commissioner Danuta Hübner in her speech highlighting the central role the EU Structural Funds play in turning research knowledge into business ideas.
14. in 15. novembra 2005 je v Göteborgu na Švedskem potekala konferenca z naslovom„Proti družbi znanja – nordijska izkušnja“.„Investiranje v znanje ustvarja delovna mesta in rast v Evropi,“ je zatrdila komisarka Danuta Hübner v svojem prispevku, in pri tem poudarila središčno vlogo strukturnih skladov Evropske unije pri preoblikovanju raziskovalnih rezultatov v podjetniške projekte.

In the future period this participation stands to increase substantially as “knowledge society” is one of the priorities of the strategic guidelines for 2007–13’, added Danuta Hübner.
To sodelovanje bi se moralo v prihodnosti še močno okrepiti, saj je ,družba znanja‘ ena od prednostnih nalog strateških usmeritev za obdobje od 2007 do 2013,“ je poudarila ga. Hübner.
Jointly organised by the Regional Policy Directorate-General, the Information Society and Media Directorate-General of the European Commission and the region of West Sweden, the conference had three key themes: Partnership for ICT development; e-Government: modernisation and innovation in the public sector; development and usage of innovative clusters.
Na konferenci, ki sta jo organizirala Generalni direktorat za regionalno politiko in Generalni direktorat za informacijsko družbo in medije Zahodne regije Švedske, so obravnavali tri teme: partnerstvo za razvoj TIC-ov; e-uprava; modernizacija in inovacije v javnem sektorju; razvoj in način uporabe inovacijskih polov.

European platform for sustainable development
Evropska platforma za trajnostni razvoj
The EU-27’s financial perspectives for the 2007–13 period, drawn up by the European Council (2), include an allocation to the Cohesion and Structural Funds of EUR 310.504 billion in commitment appropriations, of which EUR 251.33 billion (81.7 %) is for the ‘Convergence’ objective (least developed regions, including those for which aid is being phased out), EUR 48.789 billion (15.8 %) for the ‘Regional competitiveness and employment’ objective and EUR 7.5 billion (2.4 %) for the ‘Territo-rial cooperation’objective. objective.
Finančne perspektive EU-27 za obdobje od 2007 do 2013, ki jih je sprejel Evropski svet (2), obsegajo dodeljevanje sredstev strukturnim skladom in Kohezijskemu skladu: 310,504 milijarde eurov v obliki kreditov, od tega 251,33 milijarde (81,7 %) za cilj „konvergenca“ (najmanj uspešne regije, vključno s tistimi, ki so v fazi postopnega ukinjanja pomoči), 48,789 milijarde (15,8 %) za cilj „regionalna konkurenčnost in zaposlovanje“ in 7,5 milijarde (2,4 %) za cilj„teritorialno sodelovanje“.
In a communication on the review of European sustainable development strategy, the Commission has established a new platform for action (2005–10) for the authorities, companies, universities, NGOs and citizens:
V poročilu o reviziji evropske strategije trajnostnega razvoja je Komisija zasnovala novo platformo ukrepov (2005–2010) za organe upravne oblasti, podjetja, univerze, nevladne organizacije in državljane:
The Commissioner welcomed the fact that the agreement came in time to permit the legislative and programming documents needed to implement the future cohesion policy to be drawn up before 1 January 2007.
Komisarka je z veseljem sprejela dejstvo, da je sporazum prišel pravočasno in tako omogočil dokončanje in sprejetje – pred 1. januarjem 2007 – zakonodajnih in programskih dokumentov, potrebnih za izvajanje kohezijske politike v prihodnosti.
The Commissioner indicated that the Commission, in cooperation with the European Parliament and Council, will endeavour to improve the possibilities for implementing the agreement for the whole of the EU as far as cohesion policy is concerned.
Hübner je kljub temu izrazila obžalovanje, da je proračun, kot ga je regionalni politiki odmeril Svet, „veliko nižji od predlogov Komisije in ne zadostuje za uresničitev ambicij in ciljev, ki si jih je zastavila Unija“.
This is important given the risk of ‘creating something we have never had: two distinct cohesion policies for Europe, one for the “old”Member States and one for the“new”’. “new”’.
Komisarka je oznanila, da se bo Komisija v sodelovanju z Evropskim parlamentom in Svetom trudila izboljšati možnosti izvajanja sporazuma na področju kohezijske politike po meri celotne Unije.

On the road to accession: ISPA in Bulgaria and Romania
Na poti do pristopa: ISPA v Bolgariji in Romuniji
The 2004 report on aid under the instrument for structural policy for pre-accession (ISPRA) in Bulgaria and Romania (EUR 452 million for 11 new projects) shows the generally good progress of operations and assesses projects cofinanced in these two countries since 2000.
Poročilo 2004 o pomočeh Instrumenta strukturnih politik v predpristopnem obdobju (ISPA) v Bolgariji in Romuniji (452 milijonov eurov za 11 novih projektov) kaže na splošen dober napredek aktivnosti in vrednoti projekte, ki jih instrument v teh dveh državah sofinancira že od leta 2000.
Croatia: the first steps.
Hrvaška: prvi koraki.
The ISPA instrument is also taking its first steps in Croatia, with a contribution of almost EUR 51.3 million towards a total cost of EUR 127.4 million for two projects to be implemented by 2010.
ISPA dela prve korake tudi na Hrvaškem s prispevkom v višini skoraj 51,3 milijona eurov od skupne cene 127,4 milijona, za dva projekta, ki se bosta izvajala do 2010.
The first (EUR 22.5 million) concerns water management in Karlovac, comprising construction of a wastewater treatment plant and improvements to the water distribution and sewerage networks.
Prvi (22,5 milijona) zadeva upravljanje voda v Karlovcu: izgradnja čistilne naprave, izboljšava sistema distribucije vode in kanalizacijskega omrežja.
The second (EUR 28.8 million) is aimed at modernising the rail link between Tovarnic and Vinkovci.
V okviru drugega projekta (28,8 milijona) naj bi modernizirali železniško povezavo med Tovarnikom in Vinkovci.
During 2004, in Bulgaria and Romania, 56.5 % of its contribution was for environmental projects, mainly wastewater collection and processing, but also for a desulphurisation plant.
Prispevek ISPA se je leta 2004 v Bolgariji in Romuniji v 56,5 % nanašal na okoljske projekte, večinoma na področju zbiranja in čiščenja odpadnih voda, eden od projektov pa je vključeval napravo za razžvepljanje.
The most notable project in the field of transport was the multimodal rail and road bridge across the Danube.The report notes that between 2000 and 2004 ISPA cofinanced 72 projects in these two countries, including 53 for the environment and 17 for transport, plus a technical assistance measure in each country to ensure decentralised implementation (‘extended decentralised implementation system,’EDIS). EDIS).
Na področju prometa je treba navesti financiranje multimodalnega železniško-cestne-ga mostu čez Donavo. Poročilo navaja, da je ISPA v teh dveh državah med letoma 2000 in 2004 subvencioniral 72 projektov, od tega 53 okoljskih in 17 prometnih, poleg ukrepa tehnične pomoči v vsaki državi v okviru sistema razširjene decentralizacije izvajanja projektov (EDIS).
200 Cohesion Fund projects scrutinised
200 projektov Kohezijskega sklada pod povečevalnim steklom
The results of the evaluation of 200 projects financed by the Cohesion Fund between 1993 and 2002 are now available at the Inforegio website.
Rezultati vrednotenja 200 projektov, ki jih je Kohezijski sklad financiral med letoma 1993 in 2002, so na voljo na spletni strani Inforegio.
The report is based on the countries that received Cohesion Fund aid during this period (Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain) and aims to help present and future project managers to work more efficiently.
Poročilo, ki se osredotoča na države, ki so bile v tem obdobju upravičene do pomoči (Grčija, Irska, Portugalska, Španija), želi pomagati upravljalcem projektov, ki so v teku, in povečati učinkovitost intervencij.
However, as is the case for many other major infrastructure projects, the evaluation often revealed delays and overspending as well as a lack of quantified objectives.
Vendar pa, kot je to običajno tudi pri drugih velikih infrastrukturnih projektih, je evaluacija pogosto pokazala zamude, prekoračitve sredstev, pa tudi pomanjkanje kvantificiranih ciljev.
The report suggests a strengthening of the management tools and an increase in the administrative capacities of the Member States.The existence of a national pre-financing system is seen as a good means of facilitating project preparations and accelerating implementation.
Poročilo predlaga krepitev orodij upravljanja in povečanje administrativnih kapacitet držav članic. Tako se je obstoj nacionalnega sistema predfinanciranja izkazal za dober način pomoči pri pripravi in pospeševanju izvajanja projektov.
The study illustrates the positive role of the Cohesion Fund at a time when it covers 13 Member States: Greece, Portugal, Spain, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia.
Študija pozitivno osvetljuje vlogo Kohezijskega sklada v trenutku, ko ta pokriva trinajst držav članic: Grčija, Portugalska, Španija, Ciper, Češka, Estonija, Madžarska, Latvija, Litva, Malta, Poljska, Slovaška in Slovenija. V letih od 1993 do 2002 je Sklad igral gonilno vlogo na področju prometnih infrastruktur.
Improvements to the motorway network in the beneficiary countries proceeded at three times the rate in the EU as a whole.
Tako je bilo izboljšanje avtocestnega omrežja v državah, upravičenih do pomoči, trikrat hitrejše kot v celotni EU.
In the environmental field, the fund helped ensure compliance with the accepted standards and to generally improve the quality of water distribution and the processing of waste and wastewater.
Na področju okolja je Sklad prispeval k izboljšavam na področju distribucije vode, predelave odpadkov in odpadnih voda: količinsko povečanje omrežij, ujemanje s standardi in normami.
