GENERAL STATEMENT OF EXPENDITURE
INTRODUCTION TO THE UNION’S ANNUAL BUDGET
The Union’s annual budget (‘the budget’), as set out in Chapter 3 of Title II of Part Six of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), is the instrument which sets out and authorises the total amount of revenue and expenditure appropriations 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 must 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 
principle of transparency
 ensures sound information on the implementation of the budget and the accounts.
The budget presents revenue and expenditure appropriations by section, one for each of the Union institutions as defined in Article 2, point 67, of the Financial Regulation. The revenue appropriations common to all Union institutions (own resources, surpluses, balances and adjustments) are presented in a separate section ‘Total revenue’.
In accordance with Article 47 of the Financial Regulation, Commission revenue and the revenue appropriations and expenditure appropriations of the other Union institutions are classified according to their type or the use to which they are assigned. The section of the budget relating to the Commission is classified according to the purpose of the expenditure, 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.
On its expenditure side, the budget contains differentiated appropriations, which consist of commitment appropriations and payment appropriations, and non-differentiated appropriations. Commitment appropriations cover the total cost of the legal commitments entered into during the financial year, whereas payment appropriations cover payments made to honour the legal commitments entered into in the financial year or preceding financial years.
For 2025, the expenditure appropriations authorised by the budget totals EUR 199 438 435 982 in commitments and EUR 155 209 321 982 in payments, representing a variation rate of 2,1 % and of 3,6 % respectively by comparison with the 2024 budget (including amending budgets).
In accordance with Article 312 of the TFEU, the budget complies with the ceilings for the year 2025 of the multiannual financial framework (MFF) for the period 2021-2027 in accordance with Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 of 17 December 2020 laying down the multiannual financial framework for the years 2021 to 2027 (
OJ L 433I, 22.12.2020, p. 11
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2020/2093/oj
). In this respect, this section (‘General statement of expenditure’) includes two overview tables presenting the budget according to the structure by heading of the MFF, at aggregate level as well as at cluster and programme level.
This section also includes the overview table of the establishment plan posts of all Union institutions (and bodies) and the overview table of buildings.

GENERAL REVENUE
A.   
FINANCING OF THE UNION’S ANNUAL BUDGET
Introduction
According to the equilibrium principle, the total budgeted revenue of the Union must equal the total budgeted expenditure of the Union. When determining Member States’ own resources contributions, the starting point is the total amount of authorised expenditure (payment appropriations). A minor part of that amount is covered by other revenue (taxes levied on the salaries of Union staff, interest on late payments, fines and contributions from third countries to certain programmes, etc.). The remainder is financed by Member States’ own resources contributions.
Own resources can be divided into the following categories:
—
traditional own resources, mainly customs duties, collected on behalf of the Union by the Member States;
—
the own resource based on value added tax (VAT): a small proportion of the VAT collected by each Member State;
—
the own resource based on plastic packaging waste that is not recycled: a small amount applied to the weight of non-recycled plastic packaging waste generated in each Member State;
—
the own resource based on gross national income (GNI), which is a proportion of Member States’ GNI aggregate. It serves as the balancing resource. It finances all spending not covered by other sources of revenue so that budgeted revenue and expenditure are always in balance.
The key for determining the own resources is Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 
(
18
)
. That Decision entered into force on 1 June 2021, with retroactive effect as from 1 January 2021, after the ratification by all Member States according to their national constitutional requirements. It defines a new system of own resources, which includes the introduction of a new category of own resources.
Budgetary revenue totals EUR 155 209 321 982. The uniform rate of call for the VAT-based own resource is 0,30 % whilst that for the GNI resource is 0,5344 %. Traditional own resources account for 13,58 % of the financing of the 2025 budget. The VAT-based own resource accounts for 15,72 %, the plastic-based own resource accounts for 4,59 % and the GNI-based own resource for 63,50 %. Other revenue for the financial year 2025 is estimated at EUR 4 048 442 979.
Own resources needed to finance the 2025 budget account for 0,82 % of the total GNI of the Union.
The total amount of own resources allocated to the Union to cover annual appropriations for payments shall not exceed 1,40 % of the sum of all the Member States’ GNIs (own resources ceiling). This ceiling is temporarily increased by 0,6 percentage points for the sole purpose of covering all liabilities of the Union arising from the allocation of the resources necessary for addressing the consequences of the COVID-19 crisis.
The appropriations to be covered by the own resources referred to in Article 2 of Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 include the costs associated with the funds borrowed on the capital markets and on behalf of the Union in the framework of the European Union Recovery Instrument 
(
19
)
.
The tables below set out step-by-step the method used to calculate the financing of the 2025 budget.

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, the plastic-based own resource and other revenue in any particular year. By implication, the GNI-based resource ensures that the budget 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 (plastic-based own resource, VAT-based resource, 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’ GNI for financial year 2025 is 0,5344 %.

Remarks
In accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation, the balance from each financial year, whether surplus or deficit, is entered as revenue or expenditure in the budget of the subsequent financial year.
The relevant estimates of such revenue or expenditure are entered in the budget during the budgetary procedure and, where appropriate, in a letter of amendment submitted pursuant to Article 42 of the Financial Regulation. They are drawn up in accordance with the principles set out in Article 1(1) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2021/768.
After the closure of the accounts for each financial year, any discrepancy in relation to the estimates is entered in the budget for the following financial year through an amending budget that must be presented by the Commission within 15 days following the submission of the provisional accounts.
A deficit is entered in Article 16 05 01 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’.

Under Article 7(1) of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89, Member States are to send the Commission a statement of the total amount of the VAT resources base for the previous calendar year before 31 July.
Each Member State is debited with an amount calculated on the basis of that statement according to Union rules and credited with the 12 payments actually made during the previous financial year.
Any corrections to those statements resulting from Commission controls in accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89 or/and any changes to the GNI of previous financial years that have an effect on the capping of the ‘VAT’ base will lead to adjustments of the ‘VAT’ balances.
The Commission shall inform the Member States of the amounts resulting from that calculation before 1 February of the year following that in which the data for the adjustments were supplied.

Remarks
Article 3 of the Protocol on the position of Denmark and Article 5 of the Protocol on the position of 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 GNI and its components from the preceding year, supplied by the Member States in accordance with Article 2(2) of Regulation (EU) 2019/516 of 19 March 2019 on the harmonisation of gross national income at market prices (
OJ L 91, 29.3.2019, p. 19
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2019/516/oj
).
Also in accordance with Article 332 TFEU, and based on Article 91(7) of Council Regulation (EU) 2017/1939 of 12 October 2017 implementing enhanced cooperation on the establishment of the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (‘the EPPO’) (
OJ L 283, 31.10.2017, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2017/1939/oj
), the expenditure of the EPPO shall be borne by the participating Member States.
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.

Remarks
Horizon Europe – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation aims at delivering scientific, technological, economic and societal impact from the Union’s investments in research and innovation so as to strengthen the scientific and technological bases of the Union and foster its competitiveness in all Member States including in its industry, deliver on the Union’s strategic priorities, contribute to the realisation of Union objectives and policies, contribute to tackling global challenges, including the Sustainable Development Goals by following the principles of Agenda 2030 and the Paris Agreement, and strengthen the European Research Area. Horizon Europe shall thus maximise Union added value by focusing on objectives and activities that cannot be effectively realised by Member States acting alone, but in cooperation.
Horizon Europe shall:
—
develop, promote and advance scientific excellence, support the creation and diffusion of high-quality new fundamental and applied knowledge, skills, technologies and solutions, training and mobility of researchers, attract talent at all levels and contribute to full engagement of the Union’s talent pool in actions supported under Horizon Europe,
—
generate knowledge, strengthen the impact of research and innovation in developing, supporting and implementing Union policies and support the access to and uptake of innovative solutions in European industry, notably in SMEs, and in society to address global challenges, including climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals,
—
foster all forms of innovation, facilitate technological development, demonstration and knowledge and technology transfer, strengthen deployment and exploitation of innovative solutions,
—
optimise Horizon Europe’s delivery for strengthening and increasing the impact and attractiveness of the European Research Area, to foster the excellence-based participations from all Member States, including low R&I performing Member States, in Horizon Europe and to facilitate collaborative links in European research and innovation.

Remarks
This appropriation is intended to cover the scientific and technical support and research activities carried out by the Joint Research Centre (JRC).
High-quality and trusted scientific evidence is essential for good public policies. New initiatives and proposals for Union legislation need transparent, comprehensive and balanced evidence, whereas implementation of policies needs evidence to measure and monitor their impact and progress.
The JRC adds value to Union policies because its science is excellent, multi-disciplinary and independent of national, private and other external interests. Serving all areas of Union policy, it provides the cross-sectoral support that policymakers need to tackle increasingly complex societal challenges. The JRC’s independence from special interests combined with its scientific-technical reference role enable it to facilitate consensus building between stakeholders and other actors such as citizens, and policymakers. With its capacity to respond rapidly to policy needs, the JRC’s activities are complementary to indirect actions aimed at supporting longer-term policy objectives.
The JRC performs its own research and is a strategic manager of knowledge, information, data and competences to deliver high quality and relevant evidence for smarter policies. To achieve this, the JRC works together with the best organisations worldwide, and with international, national and regional experts and stakeholders. Its research contributes to the general objectives and priorities of Horizon Europe, provides independent scientific knowledge, advice and technical support for Union policies throughout the policy cycle, and is focused on Union policy priorities, supporting a Europe that is safe and secure, prosperous and sustainable, social and stronger on the global scene.
This appropriation covers specific expenditure relating to research and support activities, including the purchase of scientific and technical equipment, subcontracting of scientific and technical services, access to information and acquisition of consumables. This includes expenditure on scientific infrastructure directly incurred for the projects concerned, as well as expenses of external users accessing JRC physical research infrastructures in order to conduct research, undertake experimental development, or provide education and training.
It also covers expenditure of any type concerning research and scientific support tasks relating to activities under this item entrusted to the JRC within the framework of its participation on a competitive basis in support of Union policies and on behalf of outside bodies.

Innovative Europe (Pillar III)
Remarks
This pillar shall foster all forms of innovation, including non-technological innovation, primarily within SMEs including start-ups, by facilitating technological development, demonstration and knowledge transfer, and strengthen deployment of innovative solutions.
This pillar shall also provide for the activities developed under the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), in particular through its Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs). Systematic synergies shall be ensured between the European Innovation Council (EIC) and the EIT. Innovative companies stemming from an EIT KIC may be channelled to the EIC to create a pipeline of not yet bankable innovations, while high potential innovative companies funded by the EIC that are not already engaged in one of the EIT KICs may be offered access to this additional support.
Whilst the EIC and the EIT KICs may directly support innovations across the Union, the overall environment from which European innovations are nurtured and emerge must be further developed and enhanced: findings in fundamental research lead to market-creating innovations. It must be a common European endeavour to support innovation all across Europe, and in all dimensions and forms, including through complementary Union national and regional policies (including through effective synergies with the European Regional Development Fund and smart specialisation strategies) and resources whenever possible. Hence, this pillar provides also for renewed and reinforced coordination and cooperation mechanisms with Member States and associated countries, but also with private initiatives, in order to support all actors of European innovation ecosystems, including at regional and local level.
Additionally, as a continued effort to enhance risk-finance capacities for research and innovation in Europe, this pillar will closely link with the InvestEU Programme. Building on the successes and the experiences gained under Horizon 2020 InnovFin, as well as under the European Fund for Strategic Investments, the InvestEU Programme will enhance access to risk finance for bankable entities, as well as for investors.

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. Fusion is expected to play an important role in Europe’s future energy landscape as a climate friendly energy source. It is particularly important following the 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change and the Union commitment to lead the way in decarbonising the economy and tackling climate change in a cost effective manner. In this regard, it will contribute to the European Green Deal objective of no net greenhouse gas emissions in 2050 and will foster the mobilisation of European high-tech industries, which are involved in the construction of ITER and provide the Union with a global competitive advantage in this promising sector.
The European Joint Undertaking for ITER and the Development of Fusion for Energy has been established by Decision 2007/198/Euratom. The tasks of the Joint Undertaking are as follows:
—
to provide the contribution of Euratom to the ITER International Fusion Energy Organisation,
—
to provide the contribution of Euratom to broader approach activities with Japan for the rapid realisation of fusion energy,
—
to prepare and coordinate a programme of activities in preparation for the construction of a demonstration fusion reactor and related facilities.
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

Remarks
Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover the costs of a Union guarantee provided under the InvestEU Fund for financing and investment operations carried out in support of the Union’s internal policies. It also covers the costs for an advisory support mechanism to support the development of investable projects and access to financing and to provide related capacity building (InvestEU Advisory Hub). Finally, it also covers the costs of a database granting visibility to projects for which project promoters seek financing and which provides investors with information about investment opportunities (InvestEU Portal).
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.
In addition, and in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2020/2094, external assigned revenue resulting from proceeds of the European Union Recovery Instrument entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of appropriations for this programme under this title for a total amount of EUR 6 074 000 000 in commitments in current prices. Such amounts had to be legally committed before the end of 2023, with the exception of administrative expenditure for which the amounts are indicated in the budget remarks of the relevant budget lines under this title.
Moreover, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/523, resources from the additional allocation provided in accordance with Article 5 of and Annex II to Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 give rise to the provision of appropriations for this fund.
Furthermore, any revenues, repayments and recoveries from financial instruments established by programmes referred to in Annex IV to Regulation (EU) 2021/523, may be used for the provisioning of the EU guarantee, taking into account the relevant provisions of Regulation (EU) 2021/1229 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 July 2021 on the public sector loan facility under the Just Transition Mechanism (

Remarks
Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover actions focused on reinforcing Europe’s capacities in high performance computing, artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity and advanced digital skills, development and deployment of cutting-edge and next generation semiconductor and quantum technologies and ensuring their wide use across the economy and society. Fostered simultaneously, these will help create a thriving data economy, promote inclusiveness and equal opportunities for all and ensure value creation. Most importantly, the programme will concentrate on the areas where no single Member State alone can ensure the level required for digital success. Focus will be placed on those areas where public spending has the highest impact, notably on improving efficiency and quality of services in areas of public interest such as health, environment, climate, mobility and public administrations, and helping small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to adapt to digital change.
The Digital Europe Programme will consider the added value of combining digital with other enabling technologies in order to maximise benefits from digitisation.
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

 programme that ended in December 2020.
Interoperability of European public services concerns all levels of administration: Union-wide, national, regional and local. The aim of the interoperability block of the Digital Europe Programme is to eliminate fragmentation of European services, and to implement a holistic cross-sector and cross-border approach to interoperability. It will facilitate and support the design, development, update, use and deployment of interoperable solutions and frameworks by European public administrations, businesses and citizens. It will also offer public administrations access to testing and piloting of digital technologies, including their cross-border use.
The interoperability block will be implemented in close cooperation and coordination in the context of the Digital Europe Programme with DG CNECT, Member States and Commission services concerned via projects and accompanying measures (awareness raising, promotion, community building, meetings of experts, etc.).

EASA is the Union’s agency for aviation safety. Its mission is to ensure the highest common level of safety protection for Union citizens, ensure the highest common level of environmental protection, establish a single regulatory and certification process among Member States, facilitate the internal aviation market and create a level playing field, and work with other international aviation organisations and regulators.
The main activities of EASA include the collection and analysis of safety intelligence and performance data to derive strategic action plans, the certification of aviation products and the approval of organisations in all aviation domains (design, production, maintenance, training, air traffic management, etc.), the preparation of regulatory material setting up common standards for aviation in Europe and the monitoring and inspections of the effective implementation of such standards in the Member States and the Union’s neighbouring States that have signed aviation agreements with the Union.
The tasks performed by EASA cover the whole spectrum of the Union’s aviation safety rules and have an important international component as EASA is legally mandated to cooperate with international actors in order to achieve the highest safety level for EU citizens globally (e.g. EU safety list, authorisation of third country operators, and implementation of technical assistance programming towards third countries). Established in 2002, EASA is composed of more than 800 aviation experts and administrators and it has 31 Member States (27 EU Member States + Switzerland, Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein). It has four international offices in Montreal, Washington, Beijing and Singapore. Typically, its budget consists mainly of fees and charges (64%), a subsidy from the Union (23%), earmarked funds (11%) and third country contributions (2%).

ERA contributes to the further development and effective functioning of a single European railway area without frontiers, by guaranteeing a high level of railway safety and interoperability, while improving the competitive position of the railway sector. In particular, the ERA contributes, on technical matters, to the implementation of Union legislation by developing a common approach to safety on the Union rail system and by enhancing the level of interoperability on the Union rail system. Further objectives of the ERA are to follow the reduction of national railway rules in order to support the performance of national authorities acting in the fields of railway safety and interoperability, to promote the optimisation of procedures, to monitor national safety authorities and conformity assessment bodies and to manage and keep up-to-date a number of registers, which is vital for the smooth operation of the European railway area.
The entry into force of the technical pillar of the Fourth Railway Package designated ERA as the Union authority responsible for issuing authorisations for placing railway vehicles on the market, single safety certificates for railway undertakings and track-side approvals of the European Rail Traffic Management System.

This appropriation is intended to cover support from the Union renewable energy financing mechanism with the aim of closing the gap, in part or entirely, in relation to the national reference points, insofar as the renewable energy generated by installations financed by the financing mechanism would be statistically attributed to the participating Member States, reflecting their relative payments. That mechanism should facilitate the Member States with the opportunity to increase the sectoral share of renewable energy in the electricity, heating, cooling and transport sector to territories facing serious socio-economic challenges deriving from the transition process towards a climate-neutral economy in the Union by 2050.

Remarks
Appropriations under this chapter are intended to contribute to the good functioning of the single market for goods and services, including financial services, anti-money laundering and the free movement of capital, and to provide high quality European statistics on all Union policies, as per the purpose of the Programme for the single market, competitiveness of enterprises, including small and medium-sized enterprises, and European statistics (‘Single Market Programme’). In particular, the programme will support the design, implementation and enforcement of the Union legislation underpinning the proper functioning of the single market for goods and services, including financial services, anti-money laundering and the free movement of capital, as well as capacity building, coordination of joint actions between Member States and the Commission, and the international dimension of the internal market. It will also support women’s participation and contribute to the empowerment of all actors of the single market: businesses, citizens including consumers, civil society and public authorities. The Single Market Programme brings together six preceding programmes from different policy areas, notably the grants and contracts part of the Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (COSME), programmes on consumer protection, enhancing the participation of consumers and other end users in financial services policymaking, the development of international financial, auditing and corporate reporting standards, measures to contribute to a high level of health for humans, animals and plants along the food chain and in related areas, and European statistics. In addition, the programme includes several other budgetary lines concerning, in particular market surveillance, company law, contract and extra-contractual law, standardisation and support for competition policy, customs and taxation. The impact assessment showed that one single programme will create synergies contributing to more agile and efficient budgetary spending.
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes, and any other assigned revenue, entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.

Remarks
This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure arising from the management and development of the internal market governance tools (Your Europe, Single Digital Gateway, Your Europe Advice, SOLVIT, the Internal Market Information (IMI) system and the Single Market Scoreboard). These tools are providing a seamless range of services for citizens, business and public authorities, that aim to ensure a better functioning of the internal market in practice. The Your Europe online portal provides citizens and businesses with information on their Union rights in 23 languages of the Union. Since December 2020, Your Europe serves as the entry point for Single Digital Gateway, adding information on national and regional rights and procedures in English and the relevant national languages. Single Digital Gateway is also working towards digitalising the most important administrative procedures for citizens and businesses, including their accessibility cross-border, and establishing a system for the automated cross-border exchange of evidence needed for those procedures. Your Europe Advice offers citizens and businesses free of charge tailored advice on their rights in the internal market. SOLVIT is an informal problem-solving network, efficiently dealing with cross-border problems faced by citizens or businesses that result from an incorrect application or transposition of Union legislation by a Member State. SOLVIT also identifies wider issues and reports on such issues as detected in the SOLVIT-IMI database. IMI is a multilingual online application for administrative cooperation between Member States within the internal market, making it easy for authorities to exchange information and work together, on the basis of simple and unified procedures in their own language. The Single Market Scoreboard, showing Member States’ performance in the most relevant policy areas and for internal market governance tools, is being developed to provide an even more complete vision of the internal market.

Remarks
Within the internal market, the free movement of goods is the most developed of all four fundamental freedoms. However, the increasing number of illegal and non-compliant products on the market distorts competition and puts consumers at risk. Many businesses disregard the rules either through a lack of knowledge or intentionally to gain a competitive advantage.
Market surveillance ensures that non-food products on the Union market do not endanger European consumers and workers. It also ensures the protection of other public interests such as the environment, security and fairness in trade.
Under the Single Market Programme, support to market surveillance measures in the Union seeks to strengthen product compliance by providing the right incentives to entrepreneurs, intensifying compliance checks and controls of products at the external borders, and promoting closer cross-border cooperation between market surveillance enforcement authorities.
The Single Market Programme also contributes to the consolidation of the existing framework for market surveillance activities, to encourage joint actions of authorities from different Member States, to improve the exchange of information and to promote convergence and closer integration of activities.

This appropriation is intended to support the competitiveness of enterprises, in particular that of SMEs, and to support their growth.
The implemented measures will include:
—
networks and clusters bringing together a variety of stakeholders and support to strategically connect ecosystems,
—
various forms of support for SMEs, including for social economy enterprises to foster access to markets and global value chains, entrepreneurship, the modernisation of industry and the competitiveness of sectors,
—
various forms of support for SMEs, including for social economy enterprises, to empower their investments in green and social sustainability that benefits the local and regional economic ecosystem,
—
information sharing, dissemination, awareness raising and advisory services to increase SMEs’ competitiveness and help them participate in the single market and beyond.
Projects will seek to improve conditions for SMEs and contribute to a favourable business environment, including through capacity building, support to SME internationalisation, industrial transformation, skills development, and value chain collaboration, and help them increase their competitiveness and sustainability. They will rely on the services provided by clusters, entrepreneurship and business support networks.
In addition, projects will be put in place to support the implementation of the SME Relief Package, the SME Strategy for a sustainable and digital Europe and the New Industrial Strategy for Europe; as well as current Commission priorities, including the European Green Deal and Better Regulation.
Support actions directly linked to the achievement of the programme-specific objectives are also considered for funding: meetings (including workshops), studies, information and publications and participation in study groups.
Key activities that have proven expertise and success in reaching and supporting SMEs will continue to be central.
The Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) will be further strengthened and supported, and will use its expertise to enable SMEs to improve their competitiveness and develop their business in the single market and beyond. EEN services will be further adapted and widened, to suit SME needs in respect of new policy priorities such as digitalisation, internationalisation, the circular economy and skills. EEN will help SMEs and scale-ups understand sustainability issues, and put in place strategies and business plans to adapt and compete successfully.
Joint Cluster Initiatives will be used as a strategic tool for supporting the competitiveness, scaling up of SMEs, supported by the European Cluster Collaboration Platform and its European Resource Efficiency Knowledge Centre (EREK). By connecting specialised ecosystems, clusters create new business opportunities for SMEs and integrate them better in European and global strategic value chains. Support will be provided for the development of transnational partnership strategies and the implementation of joint activities, including for channelling direct support to SMEs for encouraging the uptake of advanced technologies, low-carbon solutions, and skills upgrading.
The ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ mobility scheme enables new or aspiring entrepreneurs to gain business experience by matching with an experienced entrepreneur from another country and thus allow the strengthening of entrepreneurial talents. It helps tackle unemployment and enables existing SMEs to create jobs and increase their turnover by expanding and internationalising their business.
Sustainable tourism will receive a special focus through sectorial support actions. The Union will support, inter alia:
—
actions related to the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2024/1735 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 June 2024 on establishing a framework of measures for strengthening Europe’s net-zero technology manufacturing ecosystem and amending Regulation (EU) 2018/1724 (
OJ L, 2024/1735, 28.6.2024, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2024/1735/oj
), in particular in relation to skills,
—
actions to build capacity of tourism businesses, in particular SMEs, in areas such as sustainability, digitalisation and innovation,
—
actions to promote cross-border cooperation and peer learning among tourism stakeholders and public authorities responsible for tourism,
—
foresight and socio-economic analysis regarding, inter alia, the long-term competitiveness of the tourism sector and promotion of Union tourism businesses.
The Programme is intended to ensure the effective promotion of equal opportunities for all, and the implementation of gender mainstreaming in its actions.

European standardisation activities are governed by Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012 on European standardisation and implemented through a long standing public-private partnership which is fundamental to achieve the objectives set in that Regulation as well as in general and sectorial Union standardisation policies.
This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of European standardisation and stakeholder participation in setting up European standards. In particular, the appropriation will support financially the actions and the entities specified in Articles 15 and 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012.
European standards play an important role in the internal market. They are of vital interest for the competitiveness of undertakings, and especially SMEs. They are also a crucial tool to support Union legislation and policies in a number of key areas such as energy, climate change, information and communication technology, sustainable use of resources, innovation, product safety, consumer protection, workers’ safety and working conditions and ageing population, thus positively contributing to society as a whole.

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure in pursuit of the specific objective of supporting the development of high-quality financial and non-financial reporting and auditing standards globally and across the Union, facilitating their integration into Union legislation and promoting the innovation and development of best practices in corporate reporting. Union funding for these activities is vital to support the development of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) which take account of Union interests and which are consistent with the legal framework of the internal market, to promote best practices in wider corporate reporting and to support public oversight for the transparent development of International Standards on Auditing (ISA). Union funding is also vital to support the development and implementation of European sustainability reporting standards that build on and contribute to the development of such standards at the global level.
The appropriations may be used for actions supporting the development, application, assessment and monitoring of corporate reporting and auditing standards, thereby contributing to the transparency of Union capital markets and enhancing investor protection, financial stability and sustainable finance.

The implementation will take the form of studies, works and any other accompanying measures necessary for the management and delivery of the programme, in line with the sector-specific guidelines, i.e. the TEN-T Guidelines.
Eligible actions will mainly relate to the development of efficient, interconnected and multimodal networks in railways, inland waterways, maritime ports and road infrastructure along the TEN-T core network and for cross-border links, maritime ports and inland ports located on the TEN-T comprehensive network.
In accordance with Article 4, point (4), of Regulation (EU) 2021/1153, up to 1 % of the overall CEF financial envelope will cover expenses pertaining to programme support actions and any other accompanying measures to support the preparation of projects and provide advisory to project promoters.

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 application of the Union 
acquis
. Assistance is delivered in the areas specified in that Regulation, and includes notably the promotion of social and economic development, the development and restructuring of infrastructure, reconciliation, confidence building measures and support to civil society, 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 in order to preserve common cultural heritage of Cyprus.
This appropriation is to be implemented in direct and indirect management and be used, inter alia, to sustain the outcome of works, services, 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 the Cyprus problem settlement and reunification.

Remarks
Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover expenditure relevant to Regulation (EU) 2021/240 establishing a Technical Support Instrument and Regulation (EU) 2021/241 establishing the Recovery and Resilience Facility.
The Recovery and Resilience Facility is intended to promote the Union’s economic, social and territorial cohesion by improving the resilience, crisis preparedness, adjustment capacity and growth potential of the Member States, by mitigating the social and economic impact of the COVID-19 crisis, and supporting the green and digital transitions, thereby contributing to restoring the growth potential of the economies of the Union, fostering employment creation in the aftermath of the COVID-19 crisis, and promoting sustainable growth. It is to provide Member States with financial support with a view to achieving the milestones and targets of reforms and investments as set out in their recovery and resilience plans.
In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2020/2094, external assigned revenue resulting from proceeds of the European Union Recovery Instrument entered in the statement of revenue gives rise to the provision of appropriations for this programme under this title for a total amount of EUR 337 969 000 000 in commitments. Moreover, a total amount of EUR 20 000 000 000 is made available under that Regulation as additional non-repayable financial support to finance key investments and reforms that will help increasing the resilience of the Union’s energy system through a decrease of dependence on fossil fuels and diversification of energy supplies at Union level (REPowerEU). That amount also constitutes external assigned revenue in accordance with Article 21(5) of the Financial Regulation. Such amounts had to be legally committed before the end of 2023 with the exception of administrative expenditure for which the amounts are indicated in the budget remarks of the relevant budget lines under this title.
The Technical Support Instrument is intended to promote the Union’s economic, social and territorial cohesion by supporting Member States’ efforts to implement reforms. This is necessary to encourage investment, to increase competitiveness and to achieve sustainable economic and social convergence, resilience and recovery. The Technical Support Instrument’s objective is to support Member States’ efforts to design, develop and implement reforms and prepare, develop, amend and implement recovery and resilience plans pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2021/241. This includes strengthening their institutional and administrative capacity, in order to properly quantify costing, milestones and targets, including at regional and local levels, to facilitate socially inclusive, green and digital transitions, to effectively address the challenges identified in the country-specific recommendations and to implement Union law.

Remarks
The Union Civil Protection Mechanism intervenes in all phases of the disaster management cycle: prevention, preparedness and response, and its geographical scope is both within and outside the Union.
As regards prevention, the mechanism aims in particular at fostering a shared culture of prevention with activities supporting and promoting Member States’ risk assessment and risk reduction efforts, such as the sharing of good practice, the compilation and dissemination of information from Member States on risk management activities including through cross-border projects, peer reviews, and advisory missions. The mechanism also provides funding to scale-up Member States’ disaster risk management strategies and to support the development of projects leveraging disaster risk management investments.
Preparedness efforts are supported, in particular, through the pooling of civil protection capacities in the form of the European Civil Protection Pool (ECPP), as well as the development of additional capacities at Union level to complement national efforts (the rescEU reserve and the rescEU transition phase). Preparedness is also improved through the development of Union-wide disaster resilience goals, training, exercises, the exchange of best practices and experts, all under the umbrella of the Union Civil Protection Knowledge Network. The mechanism also supports the study and development of disaster detection and early warning systems, and promotes scientific analysis and expert support.
Concerning the international dimension, the mechanism facilitates cooperation with the enlargement countries and countries under the European Neighbourhood Policy in the area of disaster management, through the funding of projects, training and policy dialogues.
In relation to response, the mechanism coordinates and co-finances through the Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) the rapid and efficient deployment of national capacities, of ECPP modules and/or of its own capacities, as well as of trained experts and EU civil protection teams for operations in Member States or participating states, and in any third country. The mechanism support is financial, operational and facilitates coordination.
This article also covers a wide array of horizontal activities supporting the proper functioning of the mechanism. These include, among others, communication activities, project and IT support to operations, and other activities supporting policy development, such as workshops, seminars, projects, studies, surveys, modelling, scenario-building and contingency planning, as well as audits and evaluations.

Remarks
This appropriation is intended to cover the operational expenditure under the EU4Health Programme. Its objective is to protect people in the Union from serious cross-border threats to health; to improve the availability, accessibility and affordability, in the Union, of medicines, medical devices and crisis-relevant products, and to support innovation regarding such products; to strengthen health systems and the healthcare workforce, including by digital transformation and by increased integrated and coordinated work among the Member States, sustained implementation of best practice and data sharing; and to increase the general level of public health.
The EU4Health Programme is to cater for a solid legal and financial framework for health crisis prevention, preparedness and response in the Union. This programme is to reinforce national and Union capacity for contingency planning and enable Member States to jointly cope with common health threats, in particular cross-border threats, where Union intervention can add tangible value. The programme complements health policies of the Member States and supports a ‘One Health’ approach, where applicable, in improving health outcomes through resilient, resource-efficient and inclusive health systems across the Member States, through better disease prevention and surveillance, health promotion, access, diagnosis and treatment, including the fight against cancer as well as cross-border collaboration in health. This programme is to also address non-communicable diseases, which have been shown to be a strong determinant of mortality from COVID-19.

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, in the event of activation by the Council under Regulation (EU) 2016/369.
Emergency support shall 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 necessary, protection operations to save and preserve life in disasters or their immediate aftermath.
Following the activation through Regulation (EU) 2020/521 of the emergency support to tackle the COVID-19 outbreak in April 2020, this appropriation is intended to ensure a proper Union response in addressing the related health crisis.
The emergency support is intended to equip the Union with a broad toolbox commensurate with the large scale of the COVID-19 pandemic. The needs-based emergency support allows the Union to deploy targeted measures strategically, addressing the needs related to the COVID-19 crisis where the scale, speed or cross-border nature of the solutions needed are best addressed through coordinated Union intervention. Such emergency support complements Member States’ efforts and assistance provided through other Union instruments.
Coordinated action at Union level enables the current crisis to be addressed through, inter alia:
—
funding of Advance Purchase Agreements with COVID-19 vaccine developers/manufacturers,
—
procurement and distribution to Member States of essential health-related products, including protective gear for hospital staff, testing supplies, therapeutics, diagnostics and training,
—
transportation of essential medical cargo (including life-saving personal protective, testing and medical equipment, ventilators, masks, medicines, etc.),
—
cross-border cooperation to alleviate the pressure on health systems in the most affected Union regions, including through the transportation of patients in need to cross-border hospitals which can offer free capacity, as well as providing support for the transport of medical teams and personnel including operating costs,
—
funding clinical trials for generating clinical evidence to repurpose existing treatments to treat COVID-19 patients, as well the collection of COVID-19 convalescent plasma to increase its availability as a direct treatment for COVID-19 patients,
—
increasing testing facilities and capacity in Member States and training additional staff to perform sampling and analysis,
—
reinforcement of medical capacities and deployment of temporary healthcare facilities and temporary extension of existing healthcare facilities to relieve pressure on existing structures and increase overall healthcare capacity,
—
procurement and donation of ultraviolet (UV) disinfecting robots to hospitals throughout the Union,
—
contributing to strengthening cross-border contact tracing through an EU digital platform connecting national contact tracing and warning apps, as well as an EU exchange platform connecting national Passenger Locator Form systems,
—
support issuing and verifying of interoperable certificates of vaccination, test results and recovery from COVID-19 to facilitate free movement,
—
contributing to strengthening contact tracing through the establishment of an EU wastewater monitoring system.
This appropriation may cover any of the humanitarian aid actions eligible for Union financing, and may consequently encompass assistance, relief and, where necessary, protection operations to save and preserve life in disasters or in their immediate aftermath.
This appropriation may also be used to finance other expenditure directly related to the implementation of emergency support in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2020/521.

Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 851/2004 provides that the mission of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control is the following:
—
In order to enhance the capacity of the Union and the Member States to protect human health through the prevention and control of communicable diseases in humans and related special health issues, the mission of the Centre is to identify and assess current and emerging threats to human health from communicable diseases and related special health issues, to report thereon and, where appropriate, to ensure that information thereon is presented in an easily accessible way. The Centre acts in collaboration with competent bodies of the Member States or on its own initiative, through a dedicated network. The mission of the Centre is also to provide science-based recommendations and support in coordinating the response at Union and national levels, as well as at cross-border interregional and regional level, to such threats, where appropriate. In providing such recommendations, the Centre, where necessary, cooperates with Member States and takes into account existing national crisis management plans and the respective circumstances of each Member State.
—
In the event of other outbreaks of diseases of unknown origin that may spread within or to the Union, the Centre acts on its own initiative until the source of the outbreak is known. In the case of an outbreak that is clearly not of a communicable disease, the Centre acts only in cooperation with the coordinating competent bodies and upon their request, and provides a risk assessment.
—
In pursuing its mission, the Centre respects the responsibilities of the Member States, the Commission and other Union bodies or agencies, and the responsibilities of third countries and international organisations active within the field of public health, in particular the World Health Organisation (WHO), in order to ensure that there is comprehensiveness, coherence and complementarity of action and that actions are coordinated.
—
The Centre supports the work of the Health Security Committee (HSC), established by Article 4 of Regulation (EU) 2022/2371 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 November 2022 on serious cross-border threats to health and repealing Decision No 1082/2013/EU (
OJ L 314, 6.12.2022, p. 26
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2022/2371/oj
), the Council, the Member States and, where relevant, other Union structures, in order to promote effective coherence between their respective activities and to coordinate responses to serious cross-border threats to health, within its mandate.

Remarks
European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) is the cornerstone of the Union system of risk assessment for food and feed safety. Its scientific advice on existing and emerging risks underpins the policies and decisions of risk managers in the Union institutions and Member States with the objective of protecting consumer health. The Authority’s most critical commitment is to provide objective, transparent and independent advice and clear communication grounded in the most up-to-date scientific methodologies, information and data available. The Authority is committed to the core standards of scientific excellence, openness, transparency, independence and responsiveness.
The establishment plan of the Authority, as the outgoing Chair of the EU Agencies Network, includes one post to create a position for the Head of the Shared Support Office in Brussels. This is with the aim of promoting efficiency gains and synergies across agencies and with the institutions, so that individual agencies can focus their resources on core tasks. The financing of the post for the Head of the Shared Support Office will be shared between the agencies, which means that no additional funding for the Authority is required in this respect.

Remarks
In order to promote the protection of human and animal health and of consumers of medicinal products throughout the Union, and in order to promote the completion of the internal market through the adoption of uniform regulatory decisions based on scientific criteria concerning the placing on the market and the use of medicinal products, the objective of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) is to provide the Member States and the institutions of the Union with the best possible scientific advice on any question relating to the evaluation of the quality, safety, and efficacy of medicinal products for human and veterinary use, in accordance with the provisions of the Union legislation relating to medicinal products.
Regulation (EU) 2022/123 strengthened the role of the EMA in crisis preparedness and the management of medicinal products and medical devices, allowing the EMA to closely monitor and mitigate shortages of medicines and facilitate the faster approval of medicines that could treat or prevent a disease causing a public health crisis. After an initial transition period, the EMA will also coordinate responses of the Member States on shortages of critical medical devices in the event of a crisis.

This appropriation is also intended to cover the cost of studies, workshops, conferences, analyses, evaluations, publications, technical assistance, the purchase and maintenance of databases, software, equipment and the part-financing and support of measures relating to:
—
fiscal policy surveillance including the monitoring of fiscal positions,

This appropriation is also intended to cover the funding of priority information measures on Union policies on all aspects of the rules and functioning of the EMU, as well as on the benefits of closer policy coordination and structural reforms, and to address information needs of key stakeholders and citizens, in relation to the EMU.
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:
—
the development of communication activities at central level (brochures, leaflets, newsletters, website design, development and maintenance, social media, exhibitions, stands, conferences, seminars, audio-visual products, opinion polls, surveys, studies, promotional material, coin design competitions, twinning programmes, training etc.), and similar activities at national and regional levels 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 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) and it reports regularly to the relevant committee of the European Parliament on the implementation of the strategy and on planning for the coming year.

Remarks
This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure aiming to reduce the economic, social and territorial disparities, which have arisen, particularly in countries and regions whose development is lagging behind, in connection with the speeding-up of economic and social restructuring, clean energy transition, digitalisation of the workplace, growing skills and labour shortages and the implications and impact of demographic change, including population ageing, in order to create a more social Europe. This is to be done in line with the principles of the European Pillar of Social Rights.
It will cover the following three categories of regions:
—
less developed regions, with a GDP per capita less than 75 % of the average GDP of the Union,
—
transition regions, with a GDP per capita between 75 % and 100 % of the average GDP of the Union,
—
more developed regions, with a GDP per capita above 100 % of the average GDP of the Union.
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 increase the participation of women in employment as well as conciliation between working and personal life and combat the feminisation of poverty and gender discrimination in the labour market and in education and training.

This appropriation is intended to finance the implementation of the EaSI strand of the ESF+ programme. The general objective of the EaSI strand is to promote employment, equal access to the labour market, education and training, and social inclusion by providing financial support for the Union’s objectives.
To achieve the general objectives of promoting a high level of employment, guaranteeing adequate social protection, combating social exclusion and poverty, improving working conditions and protecting workers’ safety and health, the EaSI strand is in particular to:
—
develop and disseminate high-quality comparative analytical knowledge in order to ensure that related policies are based on sound evidence and are relevant to needs, challenges and local conditions,
—
facilitate effective and inclusive information sharing, mutual learning, peer reviews and dialogue on related policies at national, Union and international levels in order to assist the design of appropriate policy measures,
—
support social experimentation in the related areas and build up the stakeholders’ capacity at national and local levels to prepare, design and implement, transfer or upscale tested social policy innovations, in particular with regard to the scaling up of projects developed by local stakeholders in the field of the socio-economic integration of third-country nationals,
—
facilitate the voluntary geographic mobility of workers and increase employment opportunities through developing and providing specific support services to employers and jobseekers with a view to the development of integrated European labour markets, ranging from pre-recruitment preparation to post-placement assistance in order to fill vacancies in certain sectors, professions, countries or border regions, or for particular groups, such as people in vulnerable situations,
—
support the development of the market ecosystem around the provision of microfinance to microenterprises in start-up and development phases, in particular those that are created by or employ people in vulnerable situations,
—
support networking at Union level and dialogue with and among relevant stakeholders in the related policy areas and contribute to build up the institutional capacity of involved stakeholders, including the public employment services, public social security and health insurance institutions, civil society, microfinance institutions and institutions providing finance to social enterprises and social economy,
—
support the development of social enterprises and the emergence of a social investment market, facilitating public and private interactions and the participation of foundations and philanthropic actors in that market,
—
provide guidance for the development of social infrastructure needed for the implementation of the European Pillar of Social Rights,
—
support transnational cooperation in order to accelerate the transfer, and facilitate the scaling up, of innovative solutions, in particular for the related policy areas,
—
support the implementation of relevant international social and labour standards in the context of harnessing globalisation and the external dimension of Union policies in the related policy areas.
Support will be provided to eligible actions related to the implementation of the EaSI strand, such as analytical activities, policy implementation, capacity building, and communication and dissemination. Article 26 of Regulation (EU) 2021/1057 sets out the actions that may be financed.

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover Erasmus+: the Union programme for education and training, youth and sport. Its objective is to support the educational, professional and personal development of people in the fields of education and training, youth and sport, in Europe and beyond, thereby contributing to sustainable growth, quality jobs and social cohesion and to strengthening European identity and active citizenship.

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover European Solidarity Corps activities.
The general objective of the European Solidarity Corps is to enhance the engagement of young people and organisations in accessible and high-quality solidarity activities, primarily volunteering, as a means of strengthening cohesion, solidarity, European identity and active citizenship in the Union and beyond, addressing societal and humanitarian challenges on the ground, with particular focus on the promotion of sustainable development, social inclusion and equal opportunities.
The specific objective of the European Solidarity Corps is to provide young people, including those with fewer opportunities, with easily accessible opportunities for engagement in solidarity activities that induce positive societal changes in the Union and beyond, while improving and properly validating their competences as well as facilitating their continuous engagement as active citizens. The European Solidarity Corps will build on the achievements and contribute to the long-lasting legacy of the 2022 European Year of Youth.
The objectives of the European Solidarity Corps are to be implemented under the following strands of actions: (a) participation of young people in solidarity activities addressing societal challenges; and (b) participation of young people in humanitarian aid-related solidarity activities (the European Voluntary Humanitarian Aid Corps).
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this Chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

Remarks
Appropriations under this chapter are intended to contribute to protecting and promoting rights and values as enshrined in the Treaties, the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and the applicable international human rights conventions, in particular by supporting civil society organisations and other stakeholders active at local, regional, national and transnational level, and by encouraging civic and democratic participation, in order to sustain and further develop open, rights-based, democratic, equal and inclusive societies based on the rule of law.
Within the general objective, the Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values programme has the following specific objectives, which correspond to four strands: to protect and promote Union values (Union values strand); to promote rights, non-discrimination and equality, including gender equality, and to advance gender and non-discrimination mainstreaming (equality, rights and gender equality strand); to promote citizens engagement and participation in the democratic life of the Union and exchanges between citizens of different Member States, and to raise awareness of their common European history (citizens’ engagement and participation strand); and to fight violence, including gender-based violence (Daphne strand).
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

Remarks
The European Foundation for the improvement of living and working conditions (Eurofound) delivers and disseminates important knowledge on work-related and social matters to contribute to sound and evidence-based policies in those fields. Its core activity relates to research in the areas of employment, working conditions, industrial relations and quality of life. The activities of Eurofound contribute to the following priorities: increasing labour market participation and combating unemployment by creating jobs, improving labour market functioning and promoting integration and gender equality, improving working conditions and making work sustainable throughout the life course, developing industrial relations to ensure equitable and productive solutions in a changing policy context, and improving standards of living and promoting social cohesion in the face of economic disparities and social inequalities such as the gender employment gap and the gender pay gap.
Part of this appropriation is intended for studies on working conditions and industrial relations in support of policies ensuring more and better jobs, making work more sustainable and strengthening social dialogue in Europe.
Another part of this appropriation is intended for studies and forward-looking research on labour markets, specifically the monitoring and anticipation of structural change, its impact on employment and the management of the consequences.
This appropriation will also cover research and gathering of knowledge on living conditions and quality of life with a particular focus on social policies and the role of public services in improving quality of life. Research into reconciliation of professional and private life and precarious employment, including breaking down by gender, is also covered by this appropriation.
Finally, this appropriation will be used for the analysis of the impact of digitalisation on all of the above-described areas and for studies contributing to policies aimed at upward convergence in the Union.

inter alia
, the analysis of trends in public opinion, mainly by means of opinion polls (e.g. general-public ‘Eurobarometer’ surveys, and ‘flash’ surveys, by telephone, of specific populations on particular subjects, at regional, national or European level, or qualitative surveys), together with quality control of such surveys.
This appropriation also covers measures to improve the Commission’s data analytics capacity, with a view to fighting against disinformation and against the spreading of fake news.
This appropriation is intended to cover the costs of operating the Commission’s television and radio studios and other audiovisual and multimedia information and communication facilities in the Commission premises in all Member States: staff and the purchase, hire, maintenance and repair of the necessary equipment and material (news coverage, audio-visual production, audio-visual media library, virtual reality etc.).
This appropriation also covers satellite rental to provide information on the Union’s activities to television channels. It is to be managed in compliance with the principles of interinstitutional cooperation in order to ensure the dissemination of all information concerning the Union.
This appropriation covers equally qualitative media monitoring and analysis (including monitoring or analysis of social media activities), including the related subscriptions and licences.
This appropriation is also intended to cover general information for citizens on Union activities to increase the visibility of the work of the Union institutions, the decisions taken and the stages in the building of the Union, focusing mainly on the media. The tools developed for better understanding and reporting of topical issues in particular related support to communication for the political priorities of the Commission cover mainly:
—
multimedia (photo, video, etc.) information material for the media and other platforms, including their publication or broadcasting and central deposit for long-term preservation or dissemination,

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover the financing of the CAP Strategic Plans interventions funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) under the programming period 2023-2027, as well as 2014-2020 programmes in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 that are extended to 2021 and 2022 under transitional rules set out by Regulation (EU) 2020/2220. Those appropriations may also be used for covering any outstanding payments for EAFRD measures prior to 2014 and for financing technical assistance at the initiative of the Commission within the limit of 0,25 % of the EAFRD envelope.
The EAFRD delivers specific climate and environmental public goods, improves the competitiveness of the agriculture and forestry sectors, and promotes the diversification of economic activity and quality of life and work in rural areas including areas with specific constraints.

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover support from the public sector loan facility, the third pillar of the Just Transition Mechanism (JTM). It will support public investments, through preferential lending conditions. These investments will benefit the territories most negatively affected by the climate transition as identified in the territorial just transition plans for the purposes of the Just Transition Fund (JTF).
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.
In addition, and in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/1229, it is envisaged to finance the total amount of the grant component mainly with assigned revenue and partly with appropriations programmed under the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) 2021-2027. The assigned revenue envisaged would stem from the estimated surpluses of the provisioning of the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) after its constitution phase, ending in 2022. Lastly, the public sector loan facility will be financed by assigned revenue from the repayments from financial instruments established by the programmes indicated in Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2021/1229.

More specifically, the Instrument for Financial Support for Border Management and Visa Policy (BMVI) is to contribute to supporting effective European integrated border management at the external borders, implemented by the European Border and Coast Guard as a shared responsibility of the European Border and Coast Guard Agency and the national authorities responsible for border management, to facilitate legitimate border crossings, to prevent and detect illegal immigration and cross-border crime and to effectively manage migratory flows, as well as to supporting the common visa policy in order to facilitate legitimate travel and prevent migratory and security risks.
The BMVI promotes the implementation of European integrated border management defined by its components in accordance with Article 3 of Regulation (EU) 2019/1896: border control, search and rescue during border surveillance, risk analysis and cooperation between Member States (supported and coordinated by the European Border and Coast Guard Agency). The BMVI also promotes inter-agency cooperation, cooperation with third countries, technical and operational measures within the Schengen area related to border control and designed to address illegal immigration and to counter cross-border crime better, use of state of-the-art technology, and quality control and solidarity mechanisms. Furthermore, the BMVI contributes to the improvement of the efficiency of visa processing in terms of detecting and assessing security and irregular migration risks as well as facilitating visa procedures for 
bona fide
 travellers. The BMVI supports digitalisation of visa processing with the objective of providing fast, secure and client-friendly visa procedures for the benefit of both visa applicants and consulates.

Remarks
This appropriation is intended to contribute to ensuring a high level of security in the Union, in particular by tackling terrorism and radicalisation, serious and organised crime and cybercrime and by assisting and protecting victims of crime.
In particular, the Internal Security Fund (ISF) aims to increase the exchange of information among and within the Union law enforcement and other competent authorities and other relevant Union bodies as well as with third countries and international organisations; to intensify cross-border joint operations among and within the Union law enforcement and other competent authorities in relation to serious and organised crime with a cross-border dimension; and to support effort to strengthen the capabilities in relation to combatting and preventing crime including terrorism, in particular through increased cooperation between public authorities, civil society and private partners across the Member States.
The ISF should in particular support police and judicial cooperation and prevention in the fields of serious and organised crime, illicit arms trafficking, corruption, money laundering, drug trafficking, environmental crime, exchange of and access to information, terrorism, trafficking in human beings, exploitation of illegal immigration, child sexual exploitation, distribution of child abuse images and child pornography, and cybercrime. The ISF should also support the protection of people, public spaces and critical infrastructure against security-related incidents and the effective management of security-related risks and crises, including through the development of common policies (strategies, policy cycles, programmes and action plans), legislation and practical cooperation.

Remarks
European Union Drugs Agency (EUDA) provides the Union and Member States with a factual overview of European drug problems and a solid evidence base to support the drugs debate. It offers policymakers the data they need for drawing up informed drug laws and strategies. It also helps professionals and practitioners working in the field pinpoint best practice and new areas of research. While the EUDA is primarily European in focus, it also works with partners in other world regions, exchanging information and expertise. Collaboration with European and international organisations in the drugs field is also central to its work as a means of enhancing understanding of the global drugs phenomenon.

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding envisaged under the EDF for collaborative development projects of defence products and technologies consistent with defence capability priorities commonly agreed by Member States within the framework of the Common Foreign and Security Policy, thus contributing to greater efficiency of defence spending within the Union, achieving greater economies of scale, reducing the risk of unnecessary duplication and thereby reducing the fragmentation of defence products and technologies throughout the Union.
The EDF provides support for actions covering both new and upgrades of existing products and technologies where the use of pre-existing information needed to perform the upgrade is not subject, directly or indirectly to a restriction by non-associated third countries or non-associated third-country entities. Eligible actions shall relate to one or more of the following activities:
—
activities aiming to create, underpin and improve knowledge, products and technologies, including disruptive technologies, which can achieve significant effects in the area of defence,
—
activities aiming to increase interoperability and resilience, including secured production and exchange of data, to master critical defence technologies, to strengthen the security of supply or to enable the effective exploitation of results for defence products and technologies,
—
studies, such as feasibility studies to explore the feasibility of new or improved technologies, products, processes, services and solutions,
—
the design of a defence product, tangible or intangible component or technology as well as the definition of the technical specifications based on which such design has been developed which may include partial tests for risk reduction in an industrial or representative environment,
—
the development of a model of a defence product, tangible or intangible component or technology, which can demonstrate the element’s performance in an operational environment (system prototype),
—
the testing of a defence product, tangible or intangible component or technology,
—
the qualification of a defence product, tangible or intangible component or technology,
—
the certification of a defence product, tangible or intangible component or technology,
—
the development of technologies or assets increasing efficiency across the life cycle of defence products and technologies.

Remarks
The instrument for the reinforcement of European defence industry through common procurement (EDIRPA) has the following objectives:
—
to foster the competitiveness and efficiency of the European Defence Technological and Industrial Base (EDTIB), including SMEs and mid-caps, for a more resilient and secure Union, in particular by speeding up, in a collaborative manner, the adjustment of industry to structural changes, including the creation and ramp-up of its manufacturing capacities, and the opening of the supply chains for cross-border cooperation throughout the Union, thereby allowing the EDTIB to provide the defence products needed by Member States,
—
to foster cooperation in the defence procurement processes between participating Member States in order to contribute to solidarity, prevent crowding-out effects, increase the effectiveness of public spending and reduce excessive fragmentation, ultimately leading to an increase in the standardisation of defence systems and greater interoperability between Member States’ capabilities, while preserving the competitiveness and diversity of products available to Member States and in the supply chain.
The objectives shall be pursued with an emphasis on strengthening and developing the EDTIB throughout the Union to allow it to address, in particular, the most urgent and critical defence product needs, especially those revealed or exacerbated by the response to the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine, such as the shipment of defence products to Ukraine, taking into account the objectives of the Strategic Compass for Security and Defence and considering the work of the Defence Joint Procurement Task Force.
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

Remarks
The instrument financially supporting industrial reinforcement for the production of relevant defence products in the Union, including through the supply of their components, established by Regulation (EU) 2023/1525, aims at urgently strengthening the responsiveness and ability of the European Defence Technological and Industrial Base (EDTIB) to ensure the timely availability and supply of ground-to-ground and artillery ammunition as well as missiles (‘relevant defence products’) in the Union. Its main objective is to support the industrial reinforcement, the competitiveness and resilience of EDTIB notably through investments in manufacturing capacities for relevant defence products, cross-border industrial partnerships and collaboration of relevant companies in a joint industry effort.
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, in case of agreement on their participation, contributions received from EFTA States for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.

This appropriation is intended to cover actions of an operational nature, more specifically, directly linked to the achievement of the objectives of the European Defence Industry Programme. In particular, the programme aims at increasing the defence industrial readiness of the European Defence Technological and Industrial Base in particular through:
(a) initiating and speeding up the adjustment of industry to structural changes, including through the creation and ramp-up of its manufacturing capacities and the opening of the supply chains for cross-border cooperation and effective availability and supply throughout the Union, involving in particular, to a significant extent, SMEs, small mid-caps and other mid-caps;
(b) incentivising cooperation in defence procurement in order to contribute to solidarity, prevent crowding-out effects, increase the effectiveness of public spending and reduce excessive fragmentation, ultimately leading to an increase in the standardisation of defence systems and greater interoperability.

Remarks
Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover operational expenditure concerning humanitarian aid, disaster prevention, disaster risk reduction, and preparedness in third countries.
The aid 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 is provided in accordance with international humanitarian law and should not be subject to restrictions imposed by other partner donors, as long as it is necessary to meet the humanitarian needs to which such situations give rise.
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes, and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget 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.
MFA is exceptional in nature and is mobilised on a case-by-case basis to help countries dealing with serious balance-of-payments 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- or long-term loans or grants, or a combination of these, this item only covers the grant element of MFA operations.
Appropriations under this item 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 European Parliament and the Council regularly of the macro-financial situation of the beneficiary countries and will report extensively on the implementation of MFA on a yearly basis.

Remarks
This item constitutes the structure for the External Action 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 a loan granted under this guarantee or the preceding budgetary guarantees.
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
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2014/609/oj
) applies.
A specific annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section gives a summary of borrowing-and-lending operations guaranteed by the general budget, including debt management, in respect of capital and interest.

Remarks
This article is intended to enter appropriations resulting from the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers (EGF) in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/691.
The objective of the EGF is to demonstrate solidarity and promote decent and sustainable employment in the Union by offering assistance to workers dismissed because of major restructuring events. Those events can result in particular from globalisation-related challenges, such as changes in world trade patterns, trade disputes, significant changes in the trade relations of the Union or the composition of the internal market and financial or economic crises, the transition to a low-carbon economy, digitisation or automation. The EGF thereby supports displaced workers in returning to decent and sustainable employment as soon as possible. Particular emphasis is placed on measures that help the most disadvantaged groups.
As such, the EGF contributes to the implementation of the principles defined under the European Pillar of Social Rights and the enhancement of social and economic cohesion among regions and Member States.
The actions undertaken by the EGF should be complementary to those of the European Social Fund Plus (ESF+) and there must be no double funding from those instruments. EGF-supported actions or measures should aim to ensure that the largest possible number of beneficiaries participating in those actions find sustainable employment as soon as possible.

The budget lines included in this chapter mainly constitute the structure for the various guarantees provided by the Union in the framework of financial assistance instruments or mechanisms to Member States. They will enable the Commission to service the debt should one of them default.
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

In accordance with Article 143 TFEU, the Union offers assistance to Member States outside the euro area that are experiencing or threatened by difficulties regarding their balance of payments. That assistance takes the form of medium-term loans that are conditional on the implementation of policies designed to address underlying economic problems. Typically, balance-of-payments assistance from the Union is offered in cooperation with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and other international institutions or countries.
The Union guarantee is for borrowings raised on the capital markets or from financial institutions. The amount in principal of loans which may then be granted to the Member States is limited to EUR 50 000 000 000.

In accordance with Article 122 TFEU, the temporary support to mitigate unemployment risks in an emergency (SURE) is available to Member States that need to mobilise significant financial means to fight the negative economic and social consequences of the COVID-19 outbreak on their territory. It provides financial assistance to Member States to address sudden increases in public expenditure for the preservation of employment. Specifically, SURE is to act as a second line of defence, supporting short-time work schemes and similar measures, to help Member States protect jobs, and thus employees and self-employed persons, against the risk of unemployment and loss of income.
SURE allows for a financial assistance up to EUR 100 000 000 000 in the form of loans from the Union to affected Member States.

The Ukraine Facility is to provide assistance to Ukraine in the form of non-repayable financial support and loans. The loans under the Facility are to constitute financial assistance within the meaning of Article 223(1) of the Financial Regulation and to be covered by the European Union budget guarantee over and above the ceilings of the Multiannual Financial Framework. Consequently, no provisioning for the loans under the Ukraine Facility is to be constituted and, by way of derogation from Article 214(1) of the Financial Regulation, no provisioning rate should be set. This article is intended to enable the Commission, if necessary, to service the debt should Ukraine default.
Equally, this article aims to enable the Commission to cover the credit losses of defaulted operations covered by the Ukraine Guarantee in the circumstance that the constituted provisioning is not sufficient.

Remarks
Appropriations under this chapter are intended to provide predictable financial support to Ukraine over the 2024-2027 period. The Facility will support Ukraine’s efforts to sustain macro-financial stability, promote recovery as well as modernise the country whilst implementing key reforms on its process of accession to the Union. The Facility is designed as a flexible instrument adapted to the unprecedented challenges of supporting a country at war and ensuring predictability, transparency, and accountability of the funds.
The maximum resources for the implementation of the Facility are EUR 50 000 000 000 (in current prices) for 2024-2027, of which up to EUR 33 000 000 000 in the form of loans and up to EUR 17 000 000 000 in the form of support other than in the form of loans, which is relevant for expenditure under this chapter. The available support other than in the form of loans in a given year shall not exceed EUR 5 000 000 000, in accordance with the relevant provision of the Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093. Member States, third countries, international organisations, international financial institutions or other sources may provide additional financial contributions to the Facility. In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, any assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue gives rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

Remarks
This appropriation is intended to cover the financial support to Ukraine under the framework of the Ukraine Plan. While such support can take the form of loans or grants, or a combination of these, this article only covers the grant element of the financial assistance under the Pillar I of the Ukraine Facility. Funds will be provided based on the implementation of the Ukraine Plan, which will be underpinned by a set of conditions and a timeline for disbursements agreed with the Union. This Plan will encompass Ukraine’s vision for the recovery, reconstruction and modernisation of the country and for the reforms and investments it intends to undertake as part of its process of accession to the Union. Significant emphasis will be placed on public administration reform, good governance, the rule of law, and sound financial management, including fostering efficient and effective management and control systems and a strong focus on anti-corruption and anti-fraud or any other illegal activity affecting the Union’s financial interests, but also other reforms and approximation to the Union 
acquis
 that would underpin the accession process and modernisation of the economy. Funds will be disbursed based on the fulfilment of those conditions.
16 06 02
Pillar II: Ukraine Investment Framework
Remarks
Under the Ukraine Investment Framework, the Commission is to provide the Union support to Ukraine in the form of budgetary guarantee, financial instruments or blending operations, including technical assistance. That Framework aims to attract and mobilise private and public investments in Ukraine’s recovery and reconstruction, addressing priorities identified in the Ukraine Plan, and supporting its objectives and implementation. It will complement all existing instruments supporting Ukraine, such as budgetary guarantees and blending operations, with the possibility of scaling them up, when conditions allow for it.

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

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 Euratom Supply Agency expenditure figures shown in the statement of estimates.

Remarks
The aim of this reserve is to cover the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers (EGF) so as to enable the Union to demonstrate solidarity towards, and to provide support to people losing their jobs as a result of major structural changes caused by globalisation-related challenges.
The objective of the EGF is to demonstrate solidarity and promote decent and sustainable employment in the Union by offering assistance to workers who have been dismissed because of major restructuring events. Those events can result in particular from globalisation-related challenges, such as changes in world trade patterns, trade disputes, significant changes in the trade relations of the Union or the composition of the internal market and financial or economic crises, the transition to a low-carbon economy, digitisation or automation. The EGF thereby supports displaced workers in returning to decent and sustainable employment as soon as possible. Emphasis is placed on measures that help the most disadvantaged groups.
The maximum annual amount for the EGF is set in the MFF 2021-2027. The methods for entering the appropriations in this reserve and for mobilising the EGF are laid down in point 9 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 16 December 2020 between the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management, as well as on new own resources, including a roadmap towards the introduction of new own resources.

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 the Office’s independence.

Semiconductors are the backbone of the modern economy, the cornerstone of emerging technologies, and are in the middle of geopolitical competition. Europe cannot become completely self-reliant but relies on like-minded partner countries to diversify and secure its semiconductor supply chains, while leveraging its diplomatic weight with the aim of mitigating or preventing a crisis and achieving strategic autonomy. The US already initiated a Chip4 alliance without involving the Union. If Europe wants to become a relevant actor in the chips value chain, it must also invest in the competitiveness of its chips diplomacy and make it a cornerstone of its foreign policy.
This pilot project would establish track 2 bilateral dialogues between European stakeholders and strategic partners to enhance coordination and confidence-building on strategic, diplomatic, trade and security issues in the context of the semiconductors and semiconductor technologies, including topics such as protective measures, export controls, intellectual property protection, supply chain security, standards, certification and green innovation. It will support a better understanding of the semiconductor value chain and its evolution as well as a stronger European ecosystem through international partnerships. The specific objectives of this pilot project are to contribute to:
—
track 2 diplomacy to increase consensus and coordination between all relevant European non-state stakeholders of the semiconductor ecosystem and those of partner countries, through a dialogue work stream;
—
better understanding and analysis of factors affecting the semiconductor value chain and its evolution, through a research work stream;
—
promoting the Union’s economic base, competitiveness, growth, standards and contributions to the global semiconductor value chain and its resilience in partner countries, through an advocacy work stream.
To reach those objectives, three work streams should be established with the following indicative list of activities:
—
dialogue: as the core activity of this project, the organisation of track 2 consultation meetings with key global partners in the context on semiconductor topics of shared or converging interests. In contrast to official track 1 diplomacy that can already be undertaken, track 2 diplomacy is unofficial in nature, involves industry and is facilitated by a civil society organisation. This offers faster and informal channels of communication with strategic partners.
—
research: briefings and research to support and inform the consultations and other forms of engagement, and joint research initiatives with stakeholders from partner countries to inform the mapping and monitoring efforts of the value chain.
—
advocacy: dedicated outreach and public diplomacy channels to disseminate and promote Union’s chip policies, interests and achievements in Europe and abroad, e.g. at conferences or via social media, traditional media, written publications and other channels.
The priorities and intended results are:
—
to enhance track 2 diplomacy, European coordination, engagement and advocacy through regular dialogues and consultations with key global partners on semiconductor topics of shared or converging interests;
—
to increase consensus with partner countries on how to enhance supply chain security and a trusted foundry certification programme;
—
to strengthen multi-stakeholder engagement and confidence-building between European non-state stakeholders in the semiconductor ecosystem, and with partner countries;
—
to encourage cooperation on R&D and workforce development with strategic partners;
—
to enhance dissemination of Union’s best practices in supply chain security, R&D or other topics of converging interests;
—
to support and inform official governmental track 1 dialogues and decisions with insights from relevant industry and civil society actors in the semiconductor ecosystem;
—
to strengthen convergence between the standards, policies, and best practices of the Union and those of partner countries;
—
to offer European stakeholders avenues for signalling other delegations;
—
to support the Commission’s activities under Regulation (EU) 2023/1781 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 September 2023 establishing a framework of measures for strengthening Europe’s semiconductor ecosystem and amending Regulation (EU) 2021/694 (Chips Act) (
OJ L 229, 18.9.2023, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2023/1781/oj
), in particular on international cooperation and the mapping and monitoring of the supply and value chains;
—
to support the envisioned activities of the European Economic Security Strategy as they pertain to semiconductors and semiconductor technologies.
In particular, it should contribute to informing and strengthening the Union's investment and export control frameworks and its coordination with strategic partners, especially in the context of the risk assessment and other proposals emanating from the European Economic Security Package.

With the publication of the European Green Deal, the Commission set out the objective to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent. The aim is to make all sectors of the Union fit to meet this challenge, including the Union space sector. While Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is recognised as the most appropriate methodology to measure and act upon environmental impacts, there is currently no commonly agreed sector-specific methodology, as well as there is a lack of data, and several important environmental aspects are not covered by standard LCA impact assessment methods.
The objective of the pilot project is to create a space sector specific methodology for LCA of space activities including the specificities of the impacts on the Earth's environments and the impacts on the space environment:
The three key benefits of such space sector specific methodologies are:
—
they would allow comparability of a product's environmental performance with that of similar products in the European market;
—
they would ensure fair competition among manufacturers and improve communication through a standardised approach of the environmental performance of products;
—
a Product Environmental Footprint (PEF)-based methodology helps to understand, prioritise and improve the supply chain and use of resources through a life cycle approach. It could help put in place measures to save resources and focus on areas that have the largest impact on the overall environmental performance of the products.
The space supply chain can be split in two domains: differentiating between impacts on the Earth's environment and the impacts on the space environment.
The impact of space activities on the Earth's environment concerns mainly the production and operations of space systems and launchers, the launch activities for the placement in orbit of the systems, the space system components surviving the re-entry in the atmosphere carrying fuel and/or radioactive material and the biological hazard due to sample return from other celestial bodies exploration missions.
The impacts from space activities on the space environment derive from the creation of space debris due to placement in orbit of space systems (e.g. launcher upper stages, satellites release brackets, propellants and gas emissions in space) and/or not adequate disposal of space objects at the end of their operational life (e.g. graveyard orbital parking, passivation of space objects, controlled re-entry), the fragmentation and proliferation of debris due to in-orbit collisions between active satellites and space debris objects (including inactive satellites or components thereof) and among space debris objects, with a chain reaction potential and the contamination of other celestial bodies due to robotic and human exploration activities. Although environmental LCA is not new in the space sector, very few quality-assured and inter-operable inventory datasets are currently available. Several potentially important environmental aspects are today not covered by the impact assessment models or disregard due to a lack of information or quantification of the emissions. In addition, there is no common agreement on sector-specific rules concerning life cycle-based assessments shared along the value chain nor reference systems for space systems, projects or programmes.

The New European Bauhaus (NEB) is a creative and interdisciplinary initiative that connects the European Green Deal to living spaces and experiences. The initiative calls on all of us to imagine and build together a sustainable and inclusive future that is beautiful for our eyes, minds, and souls.
One key element of linking this approach with local territories and partners is the organisation of the NEB Lab. The NEB Lab is a co-creation space at the service of the NEB community for the delivery of beautiful, sustainable, and inclusive projects to improve our daily lives. It focuses on connecting people, learning from each other and tapping into everyone's experience.
Another important element is the ‘NEB Compass’, a tool that helps promoters understand to what extent a given project is embodying the NEB approach. The tool explains what the three core NEB values — sustainability, inclusion, and beauty — mean in specific contexts; and how they can be integrated and combined with the working principles of participation and transdisciplinary.
Thanks to funding from different Union programmes, NEB has started to implement change on the ground, but more can be done. Parliament has underlined the need for a dedicated NEB funding on several occasions and in particular in its report on NEB. There seems to be a gap in providing financial support to smaller local and regional beneficiaries in Europe that struggle to access the standard channels of Union funding.
The aim of this pilot project is thus stimulating and supporting local and regional NEB grassroots projects by facilitating access to financial support, especially for small project promoters. The results and learning from this pilot project could feed into the work on long-term NEB financing.
This pilot project proposes a comprehensive approach with two complementing actions that promote the NEB core values and principles and boost projects serving the green and digital transition: the creation of a NEB Funding Advisory Hub and the development of a NEB Lab Voucher Scheme.
(a) Action A — NEB Funding Advisory Hub
The NEB Innovative Funding Advisory Hub would look for and map funding opportunities for local NEB-aligned projects, so that they can obtain the initial financing. The Hub would aim to enhance the speed and efficiency with which projects can be matched with funding, notably from philanthropy and crowdfunding, but including other public and private sources. The first stage of the implementation of this pilot project could consist of a set of activities, for example:
—
the creation of an interactive IT platform where social economy investors, philanthropy organisations, as well as any other investors, be it public or private, would profile themselves in a uniform way to announce their willingness to support the Hub. The IT platform could also feature a crowdfunding platform that would serve the purposes of the Hub;
—
the collection and screening of NEB-aligned project applications. The project applications would be screened against a set of objective criteria to ensure alignment with NEB values and objectives. The Hub could provide advice and know-how to project promoters to maximise the chances of attracting private funding.
In the medium-to-long-term horizon, the Hub could evolve to provide:
—
a customer desk for projects and promotors — a 'one-stop-shop';
—
a comprehensive and objective search function for the investors to facilitate reaching out to the most appropriate projects from their own perspective and in their own specific sector.
(b) Action B — NEB Lab Voucher Scheme
The NEB Lab Voucher Scheme would consist of lump sums in the form of vouchers provided on a competitive and transparent allocation basis to small scale grassroots projects proposed by both local and regional authorities and private sector organisations (especially SMEs and non-for-profit organisations).
This action aims to support:
—
the deployment and implementation of the NEB values and main principles (transdisciplinary, multi-level engagement and participatory processes); and
—
projects with a clear proven commitment to the NEB values, stimulating and supporting the NEB community.
The NEB Lab Voucher Scheme will seek to reward those actors and projects with proven commitments to the NEB, which would work in an inclusive, multi-level governance way focused on addressing societal challenges, according to the NEB values.
The NEB Lab Voucher Scheme will have low entry barriers to reach local and regional authorities and places that would normally not participate in such and fund NEB projects (e.g. EUR 30 000 - 50 000 per voucher), working towards economic regeneration, sustainability and societal cohesion, facilitating industrial and social changes, including climate-change adaptation and mitigation.
The delivery of the NEB Lab Voucher Scheme could also connect with, and build upon the work already being done by, the EIT Community New European Bauhaus.
The operational activities under this pilot project would be implemented by the Joint Research Centre (JRC), in partnership with the Committee of the Regions.
The JRC would cooperate with NEB Community partners, the EIT Community NEB, and work in close cooperation with other Commission services, such as DG REGIO, DG BUDG and DG ECFIN.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot project.
Enhancing the stability of funding mechanisms and reducing the prevalence of fixed-term contracts for research organisations is a crucial step towards making research careers more appealing. The Commission presented on 13 July 2023 a proposal for a Council Recommendation on a European framework to attract and retain research, innovation and entrepreneurial talents in Europe (COM(2023) 436). This proposal introduces a limit of one-third of fixed-term contracts in a given employer's total research human resources and it encourages employers who already operate under this threshold to aim for even lower rates. Currently, about two-thirds of universities’ scientific staff and nearly all PhD candidates are on temporary contracts, making this a highly ambitious goal. Even upon achieving this target, a significant number of staff member will still be on temporary contracts.
Beyond the proposed Council Recommendation there is merit in a reflection of the role of the Horizon Europe programme in tackling this challenge for the European Research Area. Horizon Europe is the biggest research programme in the world and therefore has the cloud to lead the way towards the ERA we want.
Therefore, this pilot project has the objective of:
(1) encouraging organisations that employ research talent with project-based funding to better manage their human capital by shifting away from project-based hiring and retention to sustainable, long-term research positions, and providing necessary skills and knowledge to their temporary staff for future projects or career progression within the same organisation.
(2) supporting and encouraging organisations to proactively prepare and assist their temporary staff in finding suitable opportunities when further employment in the same organisation is not available.
To realise these objectives, this pilot project should:
(1) gain a comprehensive understanding of employers' strategies for employee offboarding as well as of the national practices to identify successful strategies that effectively deter researcher unemployment, particularly those dependent on project funding;
(2) develop and make accessible best practices and tools that support organisations in equipping their employees with necessary skills and knowledge, minimising the negative impact caused by job transitions;
(3) encourage and promote the use of best practices and tools that support organisations in equipping their employees with necessary skills and knowledge, minimising the negative impact caused by job transitions, as a mediation strategy when permanent contracts cannot be offered;
(4) develop scenarios and assess their feasibility in view of new funding and contractual modalities for Horizon Europe projects to foster the desired change in hiring and retention practices of beneficiaries of the Horizon Europe. These scenarios could also assess the feasibility of a European guarantee offered to public research organisations who hire research staff for the implementation of a Horizon Europe project on a contract that is significantly longer than the running time of the project.
Lastly, considering each Member State's interest in preventing researcher unemployment, national practices are already in place. Therefore, another key task is to map and compare these national practices to identify successful strategies that effectively deter researcher unemployment, particularly those dependent on project funding.

Remarks
This project aims to develop a system, which integrates existing European datasets and services and allows for near-real time prediction and monitoring of harmful algal blooms (HABs) in aquatic environments.
A data management module and a distributed computing network allow for efficient data processing, ensuring automatic integration of relevant data from existing databases, e.g. EEA, EMODnet, and services, e.g. CMEMS, C3S. Furthermore, the system will allow for assimilation of in-situ measurements.
Data analysis, a prediction module and anomaly detection algorithms coupled with machine learning solutions enable near real-time detection of the occurrence of HABs and rapid prediction of their spatial and temporal evolution.
Additional R&D efforts could target innovative HAB data collection and monitoring solutions. AI-based tools enable identification of regions with high predictions uncertainty, which should be prioritised for monitoring. Incorporation of unmanned vehicles and sensors within the system supports the prediction process and validation by providing high-resolution imagery and high frequency in situ measurements, respectively.
An expected Technology Readiness Level 4 (TRL 4) of the system will be assessed by demonstrating the predictive and analytic capabilities of the system in retrospective mode. Afterwards, the system's performance will be tested during a 6-month period in relevant environment in selected regions within Members State, aiming for TRL 6.

Cycling is a healthy, zero-emission and relatively inexpensive means of transport that can decrease the dependency on fossil fuel-dependent transports.
It increases the attractiveness of urban areas, creates a new local mobility structure and reduces traffic.
As a consequence of the price increase of fossil fuels since the start of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, cycling has recently become more popular.
The construction of new cross-border cycling lanes would facilitate the mobility of citizens affected by transport poverty while encouraging young people with a sedentary lifestyle to practice cycling.
Cycling lanes can be laid out on the site of disused railways or, if possible, they can be laid out in promenade areas along the water, and in areas inaccessible to cars so as not to hinder road traffic.
However, to fully unlock the potential of cycling and the aim of doubling the number of kilometres cycled in Europe by 2030, it is important to get as better overview of the current situation in Member States. Such an overview would enable an informed analysis of how much more cycling infrastructure is needed.
Therefore, this pilot project will serve to:
—
define the methodology for the collection of relevant cycling data; and
—
collect data on the number of kilometres of existing cycling infrastructure in Member States, the quality of the infrastructure as well as on the modal share of cycling.
The main aim will be to provide a solid basis for ensuing assessments on how much of the existing cycling infrastructure in the Union would need to be extended.

Hyperloop is currently the only potential transport mode under development allowing the transport of passengers and goods with low energy usage and without any pollution (i.e. GHG emissions and noise). In order for the trans-European transport network to keep up with innovative technological developments and deployments, sustainable emerging technologies that enhance and ease the transport and mobility of passengers and freight should be encouraged. At various test sites the technical feasibility has been largely demonstrated. The next step is to show that the technology is suitable to guarantee a high level of safety and comfort for passengers, which is crucial to ensure public acceptance and to address future transportation needs.
The Union has already made substantial investments in hyperloop R&D, but now we enter the next phase of developing safety standards for which there is no specific mandate or experience. This could be the final hurdle before actual deployment becomes possible. Therefore, the specific objective of this pilot project is to demonstrate that passengers can be safely transported and evacuated in the event of incidents through further research and testing, which in turn can contribute to the development of Union safety standards. In this way lessons can be learned, which could contribute to the development of concrete Union safety standards. In turn, this has the potential to create the basis for a new European transport mode.

Remarks
There exists no comprehensive, digitised and dynamic timetable for rail journeys across the Union. This pilot project should conduct a feasibility study to assess whether and how such a system could be established and made public. Cross-border rail travel in particular is at times difficult to navigate, with problems surrounding ticketing and information besides others, such as scheduling coordination.
Currently, individual infrastructure managers define timetables including cross-border routes and this information is available to the public, but is generally not provided in an interoperable and standardised way or compiled. There is no centralised online availability of such aggregated information, which limits the rail sector integration. Overcoming past reluctance to share data, thereby gradually moving towards a permanent dynamic system in terms of, inter alia, timetables and real-time train running and train forecast information, ticket fares, would be a practical way to enable the culmination of the Single European Railway Area, to the benefit of all the stakeholders and most importantly of passengers. In order to ensure the integration of data at Union level from National Access Points (NAPs) established by Member States under Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1926 (MMTIS Regulation) and ensure its quality for cross-border services in particular, this Pilot Project should look at synergies with existing projects and should allow for the re-use of information from existing systems established at sector level. To that end, there should be a transition from fee based sector databases to a publicly available database.
Hence, in order to create a tool for passengers and operators alike, such a system should be established by the Commission, with appropriate support from the European Union Agency for Railways (ERA) . Ultimately, it would also help with digital platforms aiming to provide prospective travellers with information on most direct routes, timing and so on. Eventually, pricing could be also added by these operators and platforms, as well as further elements within the logic of multimodal digital mobility services, once this common digital dynamic timetable is put in place.
Having such real-time information on train running and train forecast in a comprehensive and integrated manner with planned timetable information is therefore an enabler of all these services of high added value for passengers, as well as operators and infrastructure managers themselves, hence helping with efforts to promote multimodal travel in line with the Commission's Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy.
The Pilot Project should build on the efficient implementation of already existing legal obligations under MMTIS Regulation and the TSIs for telematics applications under the Rail Interoperability Directive (EU) 2016/797. Furthermore, it should provide for an appropriate mechanism for future maintenance ensuring a robust and resilient system.

Context/Problem:
There are three million truck drivers in Europe, moving 75% Europe’s total freight volume carried by land. Despite multiple European regulations to improve industry standards and working conditions, including remuneration, the sector is not able to attract more professionals and it faces a critical shortage of workers. With 380 000-425 000 unfilled positions in 2021 and an aging workforce, this shortage is projected to reach 745 000 by 2028. The shortage is attributed to difficult working conditions, long periods spent away from home, long waiting times at loading and unloading points, poor quality parking areas, lack of resting facilities, no access to or low quality of sanitary facilities on the road and at loading and /unloading sites, and a negative image of the industry. In addition, the lack of professional recognition and of respect for professional drivers combined with the weak career development opportunities and lack of support discourages young people (making up only 7% of truck drivers) and women (making up only 3,2% of truck drivers) from entering the sector. Current regulatory and soft measures to improve working conditions and address the shortage have proven insufficient, necessitating an innovative approach. Truck drivers can themselves contribute to improving their working conditions and job attractiveness if they are empowered to do so and are provided with the right tools.
Solution:
The pilot project aims to provide such tool to truck drivers, in the form of a mobile app in which drivers would rate important points on their route, places where they do work other than driving, where they use various services or take a rest. The aim of such an app is to improve the working conditions and public perception of the trucking profession by leveraging driver feedback to rate and rank points of interest along trucking routes. To achieve this, the app should be designed to incentivise positive change within the industry.
The rating could cover at least the following categories: (i) waiting time, (ii) accessibility and cleanliness of toilets for truck drivers, (iii) availability and cleanliness of showers for truck drivers, (iv) availability of parking for trucks, (v) staff friendliness, (vi) facilities for female truckdrivers.
The app targets three user groups:
—
professional drivers - the primary users who register, provide ratings, and access detailed information of various points of interest (PoIs);
—
administrators of PoIs – those who manage PoI profiles, update information, e.g., opening hours, type of facilities, site maps, internal rules, and address negative feedback to improve their ranking;
—
other users, such as warehouse workers, dispatchers, and other industry stakeholders who can access general information and comment on ratings.
The app should have a user-friendly interface, including simple design, large icons, and multi-language support to cater to a diverse driver population. Rating system should be based on clear criteria with visual aids, e.g., sliders, icons, to facilitate quick and intuitive assessments. The app should integrate geolocation based on GPS data to suggest and verify PoI locations, simplifying the rating process. The app should also allow drivers to provide detailed feedback by adding written comments and uploading photos to illustrate their ratings. The app should enable future integration with telematics providers to optimise routes and enhance communication between drivers and PoI administrators. PoI profiles should be visible to drivers and industry stakeholders, displaying ratings and driver-generated content. High-ranked PoIs should benefit from increased visibility and potential economic advantages, creating a powerful motivation for businesses to improve their practices and attract more drivers.
Justification for funding:
The project requires an estimated EUR 600 000 for development, maintenance and promotion offering significant return on investment by addressing a critical industry challenge. The basic version of the app could be developed, tested and deployed within 12 months.
The project presents a timely, impactful, and cost-effective solution. By empowering drivers and promoting transparency, this project has the potential to transform the road transport sector and ensure its sustainability.

The objectives of this pilot action are to:
—
define criteria for a voluntary ‘European Trusted Drone’ label, which would contribute to the secure use of drones and promote the EU drone industry.
—
assess the options to set up a labelling scheme in the Union.
The definition of the criteria and the establishment of the scheme would need to be done in close collaboration with the relevant industry and authority stakeholders. The criteria should meet cybersecurity expectations of authorities, be achievable for drone manufactures and the drones reasonably affordable for the buyers. The scheme should be voluntary and not introduce unnecessary costs for the industry or public authorities.
Depending on the outcome of the project, a follow up action could be considered to support the setting up of such labelling scheme.

Restrictive measures (sanctions) are an essential tool for the promotion of the objectives of the Common Foreign and Security Policy. Their objectives include safeguarding the Union’s values, maintaining international peace and security, consolidating and supporting democracy, the rule of law and human rights. The sanctions remain the main instrument in the Union’s toolbox to deter, prevent and condemn aggressive and illiberal behaviour of the third countries. While having their diplomatic and economic impact on the targeted regimes, they also represent an extra effort for the national Member States’ administrations, which do not all have the same capacities to address the challenges of sanction enforcement. Considering that the lack of sanction implementation, as well as inconsistencies across different jurisdictions of the Union, also represent a risk to Union financial interests and to the national financial systems, it is important to make sure that the Union sanctions are implemented equally across the Union. This is particularly relevant for the implementation of the Union sanctions against Russia, which have been subsequently adopted starting from 2014. The Seize and Freeze Task Force, established with the cooperation of various Directorates General of the Commission is an important configuration to oversee sanction implementation. However, the challenge lies in the fact that sanctions need to be uniformly implemented in 27 Member States’ configurations of multiple national competent authorities.
In order to curb circumvention of Union sanctions and assist the Member States in their sanction implementation tasks, this pilot project concerns a study on the best practices and synergies that would benefit the Union’s sanction policy, taking stock of the examples of the United States’ Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and the United Kingdom sanctions enforcement authority (OFSI). Being centralised bodies which oversee and facilitate sanction implementation in the entirety of their respective jurisdictions, the examples of OFAC and OFSI could be instrumental for better sanction enforcement throughout the Union. In addition, the study should concentrate on the function of the existing configurations of sanction enforcement bodies within each Member State. This would help to identify similarities, disparities, best practices and missing elements across all the jurisdictions of the Union.
Considering that each Member State nominates a very different set and number of national authorities for the enforcement of Union sanctions (currently at least 160 officially designated), it would be useful to see to what extent having a centralised sanction implementation body would benefit Union sanction implementation, as compared to a network of scattered national bodies. Such a study would help to identify a way for reducing ‘avoidable’ sanction evasion, namely in terms of asset freeze and confiscation and visa and travel bans.
Another necessary contribution of the study would lie in comparison between the budgetary resources dedicated to sanction enforcement in the existing Union sanction framework and the resources available in OFAC and OFSI. This comparative analysis would help to estimate necessary increases in the budgetary lines related to the enforcement of Union sanctions.
Based on these findings the study could outline the added value of having a centralised approach to sanction enforcement with the help of a dedicated institution. The results of the study could hence serve as a basis for the possible creation and functioning of a future Union’s sanction implementation body. The study should also outline the modalities of cooperation with OFAC and OFSI in the current conditions and in the perspective of the establishment of a sanction implementation body.
The study would also identify the ways to optimise and reduce the administrative and financial costs of sanction implementation.
In the current context, where it is estimated that Russian resources would allow Russia to wage the war for several more years, it is a matter of urgency to make the adopted Union sanctions be applied to their maximum extent and prevent any sanction evasion attempt. This urgency applies to a various extent also to other thematic and country-based sanctions adopted by the Union.

European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRSs) introduced by Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 amending Regulation (EU) No 537/2014, Directive 2004/109/EC, Directive 2006/43/EC and Directive 2013/34/EU, as regards corporate sustainability reporting (
OJ L 322, 16.12.2022, p. 15
, ELI:

) should achieve their overriding objectives while being easy to apply for companies, without unnecessary administrative requirements and costs. The development of ESRSs should take into account the objective of facilitating their implementation from the outset. The pilot project aims to enhance the due process of developing sustainability reporting standards with this objective in mind.
This requires the active contribution of experts and stakeholders from the ground, including companies’ customers, suppliers, investors, civil society, social partners, and trade unions, in the development of ESRSs. The pilot project should test innovative actions to first mobilise them through awareness raising, support them through information and education, and then involve them in the preparation of draft ESRSs. The aim is to achieve a balanced representation of different sources of expertise and a broad geographical balance. Particular challenges that companies have in applying ESRSs should be identified and addressed. New engagement possibilities in the ongoing development of ESRSs should already be provided as part of the pilot project.

Enabling the effective and efficient substitution of hazardous substances with safer alternatives is an integral part of the Union’s regulations on chemical substances and key to achieving Union’s ambitious goals to prevent pollution, protect biodiversity, and safeguard the climate, including the objectives of the Commission communication of 14 October 2020 entitled 'Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability' (COM(2020) 667 final) to better protect health and the environment by moving towards chemicals that are safe and sustainable by design, phasing-out the use of substances of very high concern (SVHCs) and supporting the Commission communication of 3 February 2021 entitled 'Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan' (COM (2021) 44 final) by minimising exposure to carcinogens.
While tremendously inspiring and influential, 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), establishing a European Chemicals Agency, amending Directive 1999/45/EC and repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 793/93 and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1488/94 as well as Council Directive 76/769/EEC and Commission Directives 91/155/EEC, 93/67/EEC, 93/105/EC and 2000/21/EC (
OJ L 396, 30.12.2006, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2006/1907/oj
) and other Union regulations have not yet enabled the broad, systematic substitution of hazardous substances with safer chemicals and non-chemical alternatives. There is a need to help all businesses and value chains in their substitution journey to ensure Union legislation can achieve intended objectives.
Enabling substitution by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is a particularly acute need, given their more limited access to technical and financial resources for substitution in comparison with larger entities. Without access to the right technical assistance, companies struggle with substitution, leading to frustrating cases of ‘regrettable substitution’ where a chemical user substitutes one hazard for the same or a different hazardous property, such as replacing a neurotoxin with a carcinogen. In addition to better supporting SMEs with substitution, there is a glaring need to assist businesses located in toxic pollution hot-spots and countries with less access to technical and financial resources if we are to advance principles of equity and equality, and to create a level-playing field.
Despite an unimpressive record of chemical regulation at national level, in the United States a handful of states have successfully supported substitution. Massachusetts provides arguably the most compelling model for enabling the substitution of hazardous chemicals. In 1989 the Massachusetts legislature created a ground-breaking institution to help enable the substitution of toxic chemicals with safer alternatives – the Toxics Use Reduction Institute (TURI). Based at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell, TURI’s staff have successfully helped companies, particularly SMEs, to substitute hazardous chemicals with safer alternatives through collaboration and innovation, including research, direct technical and financial assistance, and a focus on finding alternatives that meet a user’s performance and fiscal constraints.
The results from Massachusetts are noteworthy. From 2000 to 2020, Massachusetts companies reduced toxic chemical use by 75 %, waste by 67 % and releases by 91 %. Reductions in the use of specific toxic chemicals have been even more remarkable. For example, from 1990 to 2020, the use and release of a known carcinogen (trichloroethylene or TCE) was reduced by 95 % and 97 %, respectively.
This pilot project would demonstrate the feasibility of a European substitution centre modelled after TURI to accelerate the substitution of toxic chemicals with safer alternatives. One or more SVHCs should be identified for which safer alternatives could be adopted by businesses in the Union, in particular SMEs. TURI has a long-track record supporting substitution of solvents and surfactants by various industries. In addition, there is the experience of the Substitution Support Portal (SUBSPORT) and various national substitution centres in the Union. Drawing on this experience will help enable a transition away from known and suspected hazardous substances to less-toxic alternatives in key industries and sectors, such as the textile and dry-cleaning industries.
This proof of concept would provide useful data points for the ongoing deliberations surrounding key Union policy objectives and legislation, such as the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability, the safe and sustainable by design policy and revision of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. It may foster the creation of a Union-wide substitution centre network to aid companies using SVHCs to find and adopt safer and more sustainable alternatives.

Handicraft products play an important role in the development of regional and local tourism. It is therefore necessary to have a pilot project that supports craftsmen from the entire Union, regardless of the Member State they are from, in the purchase of the necessary materials and in the process of creating traditional handicraft products. Such an industry will implicitly attract tourists to the areas concerned and will produce economic growth.
The promotion of handicraft products such as folk clothing, handmade fabrics items, pottery, porcelain, clay, ceramics, carved in wood and stone products, handmade products and various traditional jams contributes not only to the preservation of European values, but also to the creation of jobs, the development of societies and the attraction of investments. The pilot project will provide financial incentives to craftsmen to encourage them to carry on the tradition and continue to manufacture products with protected geographical indication.
In addition, the pilot project will determine young craftsmen, such as potters, stone and wood carvers, folk craftsmen, among others, to launch and start creating traditional products and will create new opportunities to collaborate with other craftsmen with whom they have similarities from other regions of the Union. The pilot project may also lead to increased social cohesion and the development of poorer areas in the Union.

In order to operationalise the power of the Digital Services Act (DSA), a single interface, in the form of a chatbot, will give users the power to understand their rights and obligations, as well the best methodology to communicate with and, where necessary, report intermediaries, as well as to retrieve information from the various transparency databases created by the DSA. It would also serve as a valuable tool for collecting data, to allow disinformation campaigns to be identified and neutralised more quickly.
Like many other parts of the Union Acquis, the DSA provides comprehensive rights to users, such as individuals and businesses. The DSA accords these rights in relation to online intermediaries in general, with additional obligations for very large online platforms and search engines (VLOPs and VLOSEs). These rights include the right to report third-party content, to receive a statement of reasons when restrictions are imposed on their own content, as well as a right to be protected from systemic risks caused by VLOPs and VLOSEs.
The fight against disinformation, where the content is usually not usually illegal, is particularly challenging. Recipients of the service need support in understanding what should be reported and how. Policy-makers and regulators need data quickly on trends, such as voter suppression during election periods or failures of content moderation in particular languages.
An AI-powered chatbot would help:
—
users assess if the content s/he is reporting is a breach of the intermediary's rules or EU law;
—
users to formulate a complaint about breaches of the law or terms of service in a way that is most understandable for the intermediary;
—
users to escalate their complaint if the intermediary's response is not satisfactory.
For NGOs in the anti-disinformation community and regulators, data would be generated on:
—
how many complaints were made;
—
how quickly they were actioned;
—
patterns that could help identify foreign and/or coordinated campaigns;
—
particular types of campaigns, such as voter suppression.
As a pilot project, this would serve as a basis to expand knowledge and application of the real benefits Union legislation for people in the Union, in relation to this one instrument. In a second stage, the model could be expanded to cover unfair contract terms, distance selling rules, the right to repair and so on.

Natural hydrogen, also known as white or geological hydrogen is a valuable clean energy resource naturally occurring in underground reservoirs. Unlike any other category of hydrogen currently on the market, natural hydrogen require very limited energy to be produced and could be sustainably extracted from the ground.
It is produced 24/7, requires no storage and it has a production cost in the range of EUR 0,5-1 which would make it the most competitive hydrogen in the market. It has the lowest footprint of any source of hydrogen and no fresh water is required. Natural hydrogen can revolutionise the clean energy transition. There are over 1 million tonnes of recoverable volume just in one single structure found in Aragón, Northern Spain that would satisfy 10% of Spain’s current usage for more than 20 years.
In terms of regulatory framework, only France, since 2022, and Poland, since October 2023 have legislation in place for natural hydrogen in the Union with Spain currently working on it. Mali, Australia and the USA are leading the development of natural hydrogen projects worldwide with a milestone, USD 91m invested by Bill Gates in the company Koloma to drill for carbon-free hydrogen that is continuously generated underground.
Most energy agencies worldwide now recognised the importance of natural hydrogen and its potential role in the future energy mix. The Internatioanal Energy Agency (IEA) is currently working on a TID (Task In Definition) in natural hydrogen to accelerate its development. The IAE’s latest report related to hydrogen production published in 2023 (Global Hydrogen Review, September 2023) included for the first time natural hydrogen. It acknowledges two projects in Europe.
In the USA, the Advanced Research Projects Agency–Energy (ARPA-E) has provided financing of USD 20 million to two initiatives focused on Low-Cost, Low-Greenhouse Gas Emissions Hydrogen Production.
The natural hydrogen economy is opening new sustainable commercial opportunities for the traditional oil and gas companies aiming to decarbonise their portfolio of projects and shift to new sustainable projects. Natural hydrogen should be part of the energy mix, replicating and scaling up successful business models and methodology in the Union, accelerating the development of interregional investments, and reinforcing cohesion.
Natural hydrogen will contribute to innovation in rural and remote areas where the reservoirs of natural hydrogen are placed, building and putting new industrial and economic ecosystems in the Union that are non-existent at the moment and reinforcing repopulation with high skills professionals.
Natural hydrogen can revolutionise the transition to clean energy. The earth continuously generates hydrogen and can form significant subsurface accumulations as a natural process without consuming fresh water. Consequently, natural hydrogen has the lowest carbon footprint, with 50 times lower CO2 than grey hydrogen, which currently provides over 95% of the world’s natural hydrogen and can complement the low-carbon industrial production of hydrogen and contribute to securing the energy supply and avoiding the supply’s intermittency.
Its potential is already scientifically demonstrated with limited commercial demonstrations existing in Mali, and Australia. European public support is needed to define an appropriate regulatory framework in the Union, identified resources and implement pilots in European countries where substantial resources occur. There is a need to determine how natural hydrogen existing in the Union could contribute to the European Hydrogen Strategy and European energy mix.
Furthermore, developing a natural hydrogen economy will empower a new generation of high skilled professionals wholly aligned with the Commission’s Green Skills Programme (European Climate Pact), where climate action is already providing the jobs and opportunities of the future. A natural hydrogen-based economy in Europe will contribute to the generation of highly skilled employment and the transformation of the oil and gas industry workforce to a new generation of Green Deal workforce.
Europe is considered a promising continent for discovering natural hydrogen deposits. Natural hydrogen reservoirs have been identified in Spain, France, Poland, Hungary, Germany, Ukraine and Albania. A recent research targeting various countries worldwide suggests the presence of multiple viable plays and cost-effective exploitable production sites available within several Member States.
The development and utilisation of natural hydrogen reserves present a unique opportunity to accelerate the energy transition and hydrogen supply supporting Europe’s sovereignty and security.
By capitalising on the estimated abundance of natural hydrogen within Europe’s geological formations, the Union could enhance its energy security, reduce emissions, and pave the way for a cleaner and more sustainable future for European citizens and industry.
For regions with natural hydrogen locations, the accessibility of competitive hydrogen will accelerate the attraction of new industrial investment with greenfield projects. Therefore, proper identification, mapping and production at a commercial scale will be an excellent opportunity to develop an innovative European ecosystem involving multiple regions where natural hydrogen is located and where the gas industry and research are relevant.

The EU Space Programme components strengthens the capacity of the Union to act in all phases of disaster risk management. Within the disaster risk management cycle, applications utilising satellite data are not always considered by the end users. In particular during the phases of prevention and recovery, satellite applications have not been fully exploited. The approach on utilisation of Union space data for disaster management is scattered and varies significantly across the Union. The need of a Union Disaster Management Plan is evident in order to:
—
make society more resilient and to decrease its exposure to the consequences of both natural and man-made disasters;
—
increase the understanding of disasters, but also to better preparedness, and post-disaster response and recovery;
—
provide a coherent approach for disaster management across the Union, utilising space based applications.
The following main use cases within an EU Disaster Management Plan have been identified:
—
use of Galileo’s new authentication feature (OSNMA) which is a new, breakthrough feature of Europe’s positioning system that improves the trustworthiness of GNSS signals. This service provides an authentication mechanism to allow open service users to verify that the navigation data received come from Galileo and have not been modified in any way. This service mitigates current threats to GNSS service such as signal falsification (i.e. spoofing) or disruption (via jamming) which can have disastrous impacts on users or applications;
—
operation and deployment of Galileo Emergency Warning Satellite Service (EWSS), an on-demand broadcast of alert and associated guidance, which targets areas encoded in satellites message that can reach the affected population within minutes. This service is global, free-of-charge and unaffected by ground destruction. It is an independent of terrestrial mobile networks, resilient to ground destruction, complementary to existing systems and covers various types of hazards;
—
use of secure SATCOM (GOVSATCOM/IRIS2 services adoption), as civil protection has been identified as one of the main user communities, since terrestrial telecommunications are typically not available in disasters;
—
certification and use of Copernicus images acquired by sentinels and/or contributing missions for map production for geospatial intelligence and decision-making support;
—
exploitation and communication, when necessary, of the successful operations of Copernicus Emergency Management Service (EMS), leveraging its well-established procedures, as lessons learnt to underpin awareness and user uptake in all the Union Space Programme components.
Barriers for the uptake of space-based solutions for an EU disaster management plan:
—
regulatory and procedural challenges for the wide adoption of satellite-based solutions for disaster management being the main challenges as there is lack of coherence across the Union on a governance, policy, legislative and regulatory framework, as well as a lack of accredited space-based products and services;
—
technical challenges in the adoption of satellite-based solutions, because of the difficulty in translating user needs into technical specifications and lack of appropriate infrastructure, and difficulty in understanding the technical use of the service;
—
the need for standards to guide industry (e.g. receiver manufacturers, platform integrators) in production and certification of user terminals that make use of the services mentioned above;
—
the need to develop best practices and training material that can assist in the integration of OSNMA and/or EWSS in the user equipment and in mass-market;
—
economic challenges with reference to the costs of the data or solution;
—
low level of involvement of the private sector in the provision of essential services to civil protection and public authorities, resulting in less uptake of satellite applications for disaster risk management;
—
need for more awareness in the public sector on the potential for Galileo, Copernicus and GOVSATCOM services, as well as integrated space-based applications to support decision making and policy and regulatory development.
The pilot project shall be focused on:
—
the identification and analysis of the technical and regulatory barriers (e.g. lack of updated and new standards and regulatory framework), industry value chain and new business models that could emerge in supporting an EU disaster management plan;
—
definition of a roadmap at both at national and Union level to smoothen the integration path of satellite-based services – finding methods to improve accessibility to satellite-based services for disaster management;
—
training national civil protection authorities on the use of Union space components with the aim of promoting them and to integrate them into their local emergency procedures; promoting a mindset that would consider the use of the new space features for an EU disaster management plan and how private companies can provide essential services to civil protection and public authorities; supporting the governmental approach towards the digitalisation of services;
—
contribution to draft new standards as means of certification defining (1) minimum operational requirements for the use of new Galileo features such as OSNMA, EWSS and Copernicus EMS and (2) the necessary tests required to verify the performance compliance in support of future Union regulatory initiatives for an EU disaster management plan.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot project.
Antennas are a key element of satellites which enable them to collect and transmit data: they are of interest in all types of satellites, including military, civil, observation and telecommunications satellites, with possible deployment in sectors other than the space sector.
Major issues for deployable antennas are (i) the amount of materials needed including materials in respect of which Europe does not have an autonomous value chains, (ii) the energy-demanding manufacturing mode of their structure in a time of both high energy prices and environmental transition, and therefore (iii) their high production costs.
Therefore, this pilot project will focus research on the material reduction, use of recyclable materials and industrial prototyping, also considering the potential for on-orbit reusability and recycling at a later stage.

In order to provide guaranteed and on-demand access to space at any time for European usage, a Union system that can provide responsive access to space is required.
A small launch vehicle can offer this service ideally for defence and security reasons with mobile launch sites where necessary. This is of strategic interest and increases the market for companies for access to space. Satellite operators are constrained by launch opportunities and are using more and more United States’ offerings. To preserve and reinforce autonomous Union access to space, it is crucial to return European institutional and commercial customers to the Union launch service market. This can be realised with a responsive, flexible and dedicated offering. There are only a few developments in the Union with regard to the implementation of responsive access to space capability with disruptive technology. Those developments need to be supported in order to catch up with other nations.
The implementation of such a capability of Union responsive launch systems needs to be analysed and its impact on the market for access to space must be investigated.
This pilot project concerns a study that should identify the need for Union responsive space systems, including for security and defence purposes, in order to stimulate the launch service demand and better guide the offer. In addition, the study shall map the potential role of commercial and institutional stakeholders that would benefit from such a service and envisage future potential dedicated Union space initiative for security and defence, as well as associated objectives and deployment framework.

Access to space is an essential enabler and indispensable element of the space ecosystem, without which there is no space policy. As recalled in the Commission communication of 10 March 2023 entitled ‘European Union Space Strategy for Security and Defence’ (JOIN(2023) 9 final), it is essential to ensure the deployment and resilience of Europe’s sovereign space infrastructure, including for the launch of futures satellites and constellations, replenishment, replacement and upgrade of space components.
The Union is currently lacking autonomous launch capacity it needs to implement the Union Space Programmes and other initiatives. Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine has exacerbated the current situation in Europe and reinforced the need to stimulate the resilience, responsiveness and versatility of European access to space.
To address this challenge and in line with the action proposed in the European Union Space Strategy for Security and Defence, this pilot project concerns a study that would bring its contribution to a common vision beyond 2030, with a view to increasing the resilience of Union space infrastructures through autonomous Union access to space. Such a vision should support the Union level of ambition in access to space and prepare for new actions in the next MFF.
The pilot project will be implemented through a two-step approach:
1. Parallel industrial concept studies (up to three):
—
each study shall present a concept for autonomous, responsive and versatile Union access to space which responds to accessible market (institutional and commercial), including for European security and defence;
—
the outcome for each proposed concept shall be a high-level technology roadmap for both the ground and space segments.
2. Master report for a shared concept:
—
a new study shall analyse the initial industrial concepts and make a single synthesis to identify common needs and to provide recommendations towards a consensual vision (beyond 2030) with an associated technology roadmap for autonomous, responsive and versatile of Union access to space.

Geospatial and location information are crucial for informed social, economic, and environmental decision-making. There is a set of core reference geospatial data from official sources which are primary datasets. These cannot be derived from other datasets and are important because they support information across all themes and domains. The European Strategy for Data and the Common European Data Spaces are forming an interconnected single market for data, and all the sectorial data spaces being developed, (example: health, environment, agriculture, energy, transport, security, emergency services, the SDGs), need to be underpinned by core geospatial data.
Member States, through their national mapping, cadastral and land registry authorities, are mandated to collect and maintain trusted and accurate national core reference geospatial information. This is crucial for developing tools and services to support public policies, common data spaces and the digital transition in Europe. Coordinating relevant policies is key to delivering core geospatial data at European level. Seamless, harmonised, compatible and interoperable datasets are an effective use and reuse of public sector information for the benefit of the Union and its citizens.
Although geospatial and location information are crucial for a wide range of policies, including the EU’s Digital Decade and Green Deal, the management of geospatial, especially core reference geospatial data, is fragmented and scattered across various directives, rules and regulations. These include INSPIRE, Open Data and PSI Directive, Green Deal package, and the new GreenData4All initiative. As well as across various Directorates-General and Agencies, such as DG-Environment, DG-Connect, EEA, and Eurostat.
This fragmentation and lack of a single body within the Commission responsible for geospatial policy and data, causes challenges and obstacles, preventing the Union and its citizens from maximising the benefits from geospatial data collected from official sources.
To address these issues, this project proposes a study that would analyse and recommend how the Commission can ensure an effective and harmonised policy for core reference geospatial information from official sources across the Union.
The main objectives of this study are to:
—
research the existing (and planned) policy frameworks, directives, rules and regulations which impact/include core reference geospatial data from official sources;
—
conduct a study amongst the well-established community of national (public sector) producers of core reference geospatial data, to understand the gaps in existing European legislation that currently fails to effectively address core geospatial data from official sources;
—
highlight the challenges, barriers and obstacles in current policies that are blocking effective and harmonised management of geospatial information from official sources across the Union;
—
clearly demonstrate the benefits of a harmonised geospatial policy framework for core reference geospatial information, and how this links with the Europe’s digital future;
—
develop a road map towards developing comprehensive governance for core geospatial data from official sources.

Fisheries control operations are implemented by Member States with the support of DG-MARE and EFCA, the EU Fisheries Control Agency. DG-DEFIS together with EUSPA (the EU Agency for the Space Programme) is analysing the use cases where EU Space Data can contribute to fisheries control activities, under the umbrella of a memorandum of understanding with EFCA.
Two main use cases have been identified:
—
the use of Galileo and Copernicus services for fishing vessels monitoring. Positions reported by vessels will be authenticated with data provided by Galileo data. Copernicus images will be used to verify the data in the area and time of coverage.
—
the use of Galileo and Copernicus services for patrolling Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS or drones).
Images taken by drones will be stamped with time and position authenticated using Galileo data. Copernicus and Galileo services will be used to support the safety case for the drones operations.
The project shall be focused on:
—
attendance at existing working groups addressing solutions for fishing vessels and drones, including different public/private platforms and interviewing key industrial stakeholders, such as drone operators, fishing vessels associations, and relevant Maritime and Aviation authorities for search and rescue;
—
the consolidation of the user requirements and definition of equipment for fishing vessels and patrolling drones.
—
the consolidation of concept of operations and positioning performance and authentication needs for fisheries control.
—
the identification of the main challenges to be overcome to ensure safe operation and resilient positioning.
—
the identification and analysis of the technical and regulatory barriers (e.g. lack of standards and regulation), industry value chain and new business models that could emerge.
—
the identification of the possible actions at Member State, regional and local level to boost business development, and support SMEs to deliver EU Space based solutions to provide solutions for EU fishing fleet.
—
the prototyping of onboard equipment that uses Galileo signals to address the main needs not covered so far by existing equipment, with focus on the use of Galileo authentication services.
—
the implementation of several demonstrations for fishing vessels and patrolling drones, involving different Member States. The aim is to demonstrate feasibility and added value for the sector, validating the operational concept with the participation of Aviation and Maritime users and competent authorities from different countries. The drones and vessels in the demonstration shall use Galileo authentication service and the specific messages encoded.
—
contributing to draft new standards defining minimum operational requirements for GNSS and VMS position information in fishing vessels and the necessary tests required to verify the performance compliance in support of future regulatory initiatives in Europe.

In December 2023, the Commission submitted a revised proposal for a Regulation on Facilitating Cross-border Solutions (COM(2023) 790 final; 2018/0198 (COD)). Negotiations on this proposal are ongoing. The proposal sets out a procedure to facilitate the resolution of cross-border obstacles hampering the establishment or functioning of infrastructure necessary for private or public activities, or any cross-border public service provided that it contributes to economic, social and territorial cohesion in the cross-border territory.
Pursuant to the text of the proposal for a Regulation, Member States may establish one or more cross-border coordination points at national or regional level, or jointly with a neighbouring country or countries. This pilot project proposes to make available a sufficient amount of funds from the Union budget to allow willing Member States to establish cross-border coordination points at national or regional level, or jointly with one or more neighbouring Member States. Depending on the outcome or on the status of negotiations on the proposal for a Regulation, the pilot project could also be used by Member States to finance the creation or maintaining of other coordination structures facilitating cross-border solutions to administrative or legal barriers, in synergy with existing initiatives at Union or national level, such as ‘b-solutions’.
By channelling resources from the Union budget to Member States willing to establish cross-border coordination points or other structures, a fourfold objective could be achieved:
—
regardless of the outcome of negotiations on the proposal for a Regulation, the pilot project could support Member States in setting up cross-border coordination points or other coordination structures, with a view to bolster the provision of this new type of joint service to initiators and to foster better cooperation governance. In turn, this would facilitate cross border understanding and enhance cooperation to resolve cross border obstacles;
—
in the event of final adoption of the abovementioned proposal for a Regulation, the pilot project would ensure the inflow of funds to Member States willingly deciding to implement parts of the proposal for a Regulation pending its entry into force, or pending the entry into force of some of its provisions;
—
in light of the previous indent, this pilot project could provide a reliable estimation of the amount of financing needed for the correct implementation of the proposal for a Regulation, and possibly guide the Commission and the co-legislators on the earmarking of sufficient funds when outlining and negotiating the new Multiannual Financial Framework.
—
should the proposal for a Regulation be adopted and enter into force, this pilot project would decrease administrative burden for public authorities at regional or Member State level, in particular as regards the establishment of cross-border coordination points, or the obligation for Member States and the Commission to store all cross-border files received in a public register.
The tasks of the cross-border coordination points established on a voluntary basis by Member States wishing to draw resources from this pilot project would fall within the meaning of Article 5, paragraphs 1, 2, and 4, of the proposal for a Regulation. In addition, the Member States involved could agree to empower the cross-border coordination point or points to use jointly the cross-border facilitation tool, and namely to start a consultation with competent authorities in the Member States involved when a cross-border obstacle is notified, or to explore the resort of other Union initiatives such as ‘b-solutions’.

In light of Putin's brutal invasion of Ukraine, countless war crimes and the deadly attacks on Ukrainian hospitals, maternity wards, nuclear facilities, women and children, one fact is clear to many: if only Russians could see the truth about what is happening, then things might be different.
Russian independent media have shown great resilience since relocating to the Union and neighbouring countries. The figures highlight their ability to continuously reach audiences. Internet transmissions can sometimes penetrate the Kremlin's firewall, but can also easily be blocked, as is usually the case when they attain a level of success. Since the beginning of the war, Russia's communications watchdog Roskomnadzor has blocked or deleted more than 138 000 websites, including BBC's World Service. YouTube and Telegram are now widely used to communicate alternative news in Russia, but these channels can be easily blocked by the government. Thus, it is important to have alternative forms of communications outside of internet-based options.
Television represents the most effective means of Russian propaganda. Many of the broadcasts promote criminal ideas, such as genocide of the Ukrainian people, the assassination of Western politicians, the normalisation of nuclear war, the murder of Ukrainian children, and more. Polls indicate that 69 % of Russians prefer to get their news via traditional broadcast channels, and tend to watch television constantly. There is currently no meaningful broadcast platform for pluralistic voices to be heard in Russia. 41 % of Russian households use satellite as their main form of television reception. That number is expected to grow to 48 % by 2025 (Omdia 2021).
Satellite television distribution is the weak point in the Kremlin's media lockdown, and it has yet to be effectively exploited for alternative messaging. As evidenced by research by the Denis Diderot Committee, many satellites over Russia are owned by Western companies, including some of the most popular satellite positions. This capacity has created a captive audience for the video transmissions with the appropriate technical parameters and can be used to bring alternative messaging and opposition media to the Russian population.
This pilot project aims at providing access to a currently unavailable technical platform, television, which is the way most Russians prefer to watch news programmes. This can be done in two ways:
(i) bringing independent journalism content into traditional television channel format;
(ii) providing satellite broadcast of up to 25 new and existing channels (radio and television) into the Russian market.
Reporters sans frontières and its partner, the Denis Diderot Committee, have engaged in an extensive feasibility study, which led to confirming the technical possibility of dissemination of such content to Russian households. There is great interest from leading Russian independent journalism platforms including Meduza, Echo Moscow and Holod Media to bring their material to Russians. Furthermore, the German national broadcaster Deutsche Welle has confirmed their interest in creating a TV channel specifically using Russian language content. Other channels will follow. Satellite companies have indicated their interest in a broadcasting project and are ready to provide capacity.
This pilot project will help to ensure that these independent journalists working in exile will have the technical means to bring their work to the Russian audience via satellite television. It will create the technical means that these journalists can use to broadcast their content effectively into Russia. With the help of this pilot project, the content created not only by independent journalists but also international channels will be repackaged and delivered to Russian people, who live in a complete lack of access to pluralist information. This pilot project does not aim to create any content or financially support journalists.
There is a great potential of working together with the already ongoing pilot project PP 07 23 04 ‘The European Union – the media freedom hub’ that focuses on strengthening the financial and management capacities of independent Russian media. This pilot project is complementary thereto as it focuses on enabling technical capacities for dissemination of not only the content produced via media hubs, but also international news analysis in Russia.
Russia has weaponised its television distribution apparatus while the West has so far largely refrained from significant attempts to bring the access to free information to the Russian Federation. The project can provide hope and truth to millions of Russian people.

Expected Outcome:
Is democracy sustainable in the age of distrust and polarisation sustainable? The rise of hate speech, misinformation and filter bubbles are sowing the seed of discontent and social exclusion. The dynamics seems very much an avalanche impossible to stop, with small but vocal fringe groups injecting extreme views in the public discourse. For that reason, a better prevention and monitoring of extreme online political discourse should be welcomed, while preserving the freedom of speech. This can be done by mapping the current public opinion discourse on social media around salient political issues. By checking the language elected representatives use, we could map the political discourse landscape and see what the most polarising terms and issues are. Using sentiment analysis, we could test whether the language used by elected representatives provokes or attacks other representatives and monitor the extent of smearing campaign in the EP and selected national parliaments. Drawing from that, several EU language versions can be drafted and adapted, so to cover a sample of Member States, perhaps those with larger recorded polarisation.
Scope:
1. Create the machine learning model. APOLLO: Analysis of Political Opinion Language by Learning Online;
2. Train the model in languages different from English (up to 5);
3. Plan a thorough web scrape of main social media (YT comments, X, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, etc), paying for the scraping when necessary;
4. Run an online survey to collect respondents and identify their political preferences and whether they follow some politicians or public figures on social media, and find those who engage on social media the most. Potentially, field the survey on relevant subReddits dealing with European politics. Reddit could give an interesting insight on fringe communities too, identifying ‘superspreaders’ of misinformation;
5. Within the scope of GDPR rules, scrape the activity of elected representatives (always anonymised) on social media, as well as comments and replies and on popular topics, scraping comments and replies under established media (e.g. The Irish Times, Politico, Il Corriere, Le Monde, etc.);
6. By merging the two datasets, finding correlations between political language, politicians followed and feeling of social exclusion, controlling for socioeconomic variables such as economic and job insecurity.

Mobile migrant labour has become a structural segment of the national labour markets in all Member States. It is expected that this phenomenon will continue to grow. Against the background of skills and labour shortages and targeted recruitment policies, there is evidence that the mobility of third-country nationals working temporarily in the Union will also increase. Often active in essential sectors, mobile migrant workers are key to the proper functioning of the internal market. At the same time, however, workers who are posted or take up employment for a short period represent a very vulnerable group of workers and their situation is often precarious. In view of the complexity of transnational labour situations and due to a lack of language skills and knowledge of applicable rules, it is not easy for these workers to enjoy and defend their rights on their own. Precarious working conditions and structural labour exploitation prevent integration into the labour market, undermine future recruitment efforts and fair competition. The European Labour Authority has launched a variety of measures and campaigns to draw attention to particularly affected sectors and employment groups, such as seasonal workers, professional drivers and the growing group of posted third-country nationals. However, the European Labour Authority cannot offer individualised support for those target groups. Trade union-related transnational counselling and support structures targeting mobile migrant labour can therefore make an important contribution to the promotion of fair labour mobility and migration as enshrined in the Union's social acquis and confirmed in the 2024 interinstitutional La Hulpe Declaration on the future of the European Pillar of Social Rights. Transnational counselling services not only give individual help to workers, but also provide important insights into the situation of mobile migrant labour in risk sectors, developments in the European labour market and new forms of employment and mobility patterns. Moreover, individual information and counselling of workers are important complements to enforcement activities, such as labour inspections.
The subject of the pilot project is scientific research on the situation of mobile migrant labour and the impact of assisting counselling structures on these target groups. Special focus should be placed on risk sectors such as international road transport, seasonal work in horeca and agriculture, the construction sector and the increasing group of posted third-country nationals. A key element of the study should be the monitoring and evaluation of existing counselling structures in countries of origin and countries of destination. In order to ensure the representativeness of the monitoring and allow for the evaluation to formulate operational recommendations, a significant part of the pilot project will be to run a trade union-related transnational counselling network (at least seven countries in the first year, to be gradually expanded). The network should also include 1-3 candidate countries or other third countries within Europe such as Bosnia-Herzegovina, Albania or Kosovo. Main target groups of the counselling are short-term mobile migrant workers. The counselling centres should be supported in their development, counselling work and transnational networking through coordination. The establishment of new counselling centres is to be supported by targeted capacity building measures.
The scientific study should include country-specific research and interviews with experts at national and Union level on the situation of mobile migrant labour in risk sectors and of posted third-country nationals. As part of the research existing counselling services for the target groups should be identified and (sector-specific) needs for counselling and support determined. Regular exchange with the ELA and representatives of the affected sectors will take place throughout the duration of the pilot project.
The outcome of the pilot project will provide an analysis of the situation and challenges experienced by mobile migrant labour in risk sectors and posted third-country nationals in the European labour market, to be concretely addressed in parallel through the practical implementation and expansion of a transnational counselling network. In addition, an evaluation of the existing counselling services for the target groups and a mapping of the (sector-specific) needs for counselling services will be developed. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations will be formulated for the preparation of a dedicated initiative for the long-term funding and establishment of a European counselling network for mobile migrant labour. The results of the pilot project will be presented and discussed at a final conference at Union level. In order to continuously benefit from the results of the pilot project, interim results will be presented and discussed at a mid-project conference.

Objective: The project seeks to analyse the potential impact of AI on European labour markets and compare the implications of exposure to AI for different labour market groups. It also seeks to develop a new measure of occupational exposure to AI that takes into account whether occupations are likely to be replaced (automated) or complemented by AI. This measure will be used to compare the implications of AI for different regions, sectors and Member States. Furthermore, it will also be used to study the potential impact of AI on job quality, wages and productivity.
The project will contribute to existing knowledge by developing a novel taxonomy for analysing the potential impacts of AI on labour markets and economies as a whole. Currently, most of the analyses on the impact of AI focus on the United States or subsets of selected countries while comparative EU research is currently missing. Therefore, the project will seek to fill this gap by developing indicators for comparing the impacts of AI across the Member States. Special emphasis will be placed on reproducibility and transferability of the methodology to other potential areas of interest such as greening of occupations. As AI is a rapidly growing technology, the project will also seek to ensure that the indicators can be easily reproduced and updated when new data are released. This would provide a valuable resource for policymakers both at the national and supranational levels.
The rise of AI is one of the most important developments of recent decades with the current policy and academic literature predicting that AI will trigger profound changes in working lives. Therefore, having up-to-date evidence on the labour market impacts of AI technologies is of core importance for effective policy making. The analysis will also feed into European and national policy debates maximising potential gains stemming from the AI revolution while also limiting potential negative impacts for workers and economies.
Scope/Research questions:
Which regions, sectors and Member States are more likely to be exposed to AI?
What are the impacts of AI on the employment opportunities of different labour market subgroups? Which occupations will be automated, and which will be complemented by AI?
What are the potential impacts of AI on working conditions?
What are the potential effects of AI on wages and wage inequality in the Union?
How does exposure to AI affect labour market transitions?
What is the expected impact of AI on labour productivity?
What policies are necessary to address the impacts of AI in terms of inequalities, skills and job quality?
Overall policy relevance
More broadly, AI and especially large language models (LLMs) are fast evolving technologies and will impact large swathes of the European labour markets. Currently, more than 70% of EU employment is in the service sector, which is the sector most likely to be impacted by the advent of LLMs. Therefore, understanding both the individual and the structural implications of these new technologies is of key importance for ensuring a fair and inclusive European economy.
Added value for wider research community
The project will deliver a novel comparable methodology and taxonomy of exposure to AI that will be made available to the broader policy and academic community. It will also provide new evidence on the potential impact of AI which will inform current and future debates. Aggregate quantitative indicators on exposure to AI based on national and supranational data sources will be made available to the broader research community. Data from the qualitative and experimental analyses will also be made available through case studies and methodological reports.
Project results are expected to contribute to the following outcomes:
—
developing a novel taxonomy of AI exposure that is adapted to the Union labour market and allows for comparisons across regions; sectors and Member States;
—
providing an updated analysis of AI on occupations including an analysis of different labour market subgroups;
—
updating existing methodologies that analyse the impacts of AI and publish reproducible analyses and source code;
—
providing an analysis of the expected impacts of AI in terms of inequality and productivity;
Expected impact:
The project will generate novel high-quality knowledge which will be used to inform ongoing policy debates on the impact of AI on European societies. It will also foster the diffusion of knowledge by developing new methodologies, using new techniques for studying AI and publishing open-source code.
Methodology:
The project will rely on a mixed method approach that will leverage information from European datasets (EU-LFS, EWCS, AMECO) as well as national sources. The latter could allow for a finer grained (firm-level) analysis of potential impacts of AI. The starting point of the empirical analysis will be to develop a new taxonomy for occupations that can be impacted by AI using (O*NET data) in conjunction with novel approaches that distinguish between jobs at risk of being automated or complemented by AI. The measure of exposure to AI will combine current approaches in the literature that use the O*NET database to measure the correspondence between AI and human skills with information on the social content of and skills required in occupations. This will contribute to a more fine-grained understanding of the potential impact of AI on the labour market. In addition, the analysis will be complemented by case studies focusing on the impact of selected AI technologies on job quality and productivity. The project will also use online experiments to isolate the potential productivity effects brought about by the use of different AI technologies.
Outline of timeline:
The total project duration will be 3 years and will be divided into three work packages. The first will focus on developing the exposure measure and on the comparison between different groups of interest. Given the importance of this aspect of the project, it is expected that the analysis will be updated on a regular basis throughout the lifetime of the project.
The second work package will consist of fieldwork done at company level, which will commence 6 months into the project. Given the difficulty of securing company case studies and running the fieldwork, this part of the project is expected to last 1,5 years.
Finally, the third work package will focus on gathering evidence on the impacts of AI on productivity through experimental approaches. This work package is expected to commence at the end of the first year and have a total duration of 1 year.

The decline of the number of farms can be observed particularly for small farms (below 2 ha). At the same time the number of larger farms (100 ha or more) increased, although the absolute number remains limited. Structural and organisational changes raise a number of questions about the design and implementation of the common agricultural policy (CAP) that need to be studied in the context of the CAP post 2027:
—
Which trends are observed in the different Member States and sectors in terms of farms structures, including peasant farms, type of agricultural employment, farms’ organisations taking also into account the age, gender and education, the level of capitalisation on the farms, in particular on mechanisation, digitalisation and the legal forms available in the Member States?
—
What influence had the CAP, through its different tools and measures, on the development of agricultural structures and organisations in Europe?
—
How can new ways of organising work and distributing capital help to meet or fail to meet the challenge of renewing the generations of farmers?
—
What adaptation/limitation in existing tools or new tools and what measures need to be put in place to support the identified ways to council farm’s economic objectives, generational renewal and protection of the family farming model and small-scale farming (‘peasants’)?
This pilot project aims to feed the overall reflection over the CAP, both in the context of its current implementation and in views of its revision after 2027.

Context
Climate change is forcing every economic sector to adapt and reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. The fishing sector must also make efforts to reduce its carbon footprint. Moreover, the volatility and the increase of fossil fuel prices due to Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine creates uncertainty and reduces the profitability of fishing companies. Fishing vessel fuel can no longer be based solely on fossil fuels. The Commission communication of 21 February 2023 on the energy transition of the EU fisheries and aquaculture sector (COM(2023) 100 final) states that it is ‘essential to promote the testing and scientific validation of new and existing technologies for their application in fisheries’ and also states that ‘the Commission will conduct an EU-wide study on the available technologies for the energy transition in the fisheries and aquaculture sector and their respective costs and benefits’. In this context, this pilot project developing a demonstrator fishing vessel which would test innovative propulsion technologies is relevant.
The European fishing fleet is aging; the energy performance of fishing vessels is not satisfactory. The financing of a demonstrator fishing vessel would allow the development of innovative propulsions technologies adapted to fishing. The aim is to test different hull design, propulsion technologies and energy used on board that reduce emissions of greenhouse gases compared to the means of propulsion used by fishers today and broaden the possibilities offered to fishers to save energy and initiate the energy transition of fishing vessels.
I. A demonstrator fishing vessel testing innovative propulsion technologies
The objective of this pilot project would be to finance the refit of a demonstrator fishing vessel based on an assessment of the feasibility and scope of the test and the allocated budget dedicated to this pilot project.
II. An assessment of the feasibility and scope of the test
An assessment of the feasibility and scope of the test will identify the characteristics of the fishing vessel (hull design, propulsion technologies and energy used on board).
That assessment will also identify the different type of tests needed on a retrofitted vessel.
Based on the feasibility assessment, tests will be carried out to determine the vessel’s energy savings, safety and environmental performance with different fishing gears and weather conditions.
III. Additional information
The aim of this pilot project is to test the compatibility of one or more means of propulsion that can significantly reduce the greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption of the vessel with different types of fishing gears. It is up to the project manager (public or private entity) to propose the most appropriate combinations.
The pilot project should enable fishers to take part at all its stages and provide feedback. The Commission will also be able to follow the various stages of the tests. The project manager must propose a ‘raison d'être’ for the vessel once the objectives of the pilot project have been achieved, for example a travelling promotion of the results of the pilot project across European fishing ports or becoming a training vessel for young fishers across the Union.
Under no circumstances should this vessel be the means to increase fishing effort but only used for experiments. The legal status of the vessel may under no circumstances allow the landing of professional fishing products or its future transformation into a fishing vessel. When implementing this pilot project, the Commission will specify the requirements to avoid any possibility of the vessel being converted into a commercial fishing vessel.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot project.
Unexploded munition dumped on the seabed poses an increasing concern in Europe and beyond, in particular in the inland and shelf seas. Tonnes of dangerous conventional munitions were dumped into Europe’s seas following the end of the world wars in the previous century, and today they pose a risk to marine life and seafarers. The dumped munition pose a threat to human life and the marine environment that endangers not only fishing and navigation but also the development of offshore energy, aquaculture, shipping, tourism and other sectors of the blue economy and deep-sea economic activities.
In the past year, the need to develop appropriate and most effective technologies has become even more urgent in light of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. Aggressive actions carried out in the Black and Azov Seas will leave these waters filled with remains of sunken ships and missiles, dumped munitions and other hazards that will damage the underwater environment and will pose a threat to the coastal communities.
The Union has extensive experience in mine clearance across the world, with operations spanning the Balkans, Africa and Asia. For the European seas, the Union must draw on that experience and adapt accordingly, especially in the light of the current threats in the European seas and Ukraine's accession to the Union.
Given all of the above, there is an urgent need for technology development and support for the specific activities in the field of the disposal of dumped munitions and conventional weapons from the seas.
The aim of this pilot project is to develop technology and specific tools:
—
to advance, develop and test in the sea, in the safe conditions (non-wartime basins) environmentally friendly, the most comprehensive and efficient methods and concrete tools for the disposal and destruction of conventional munition dumped in the past; this technology and developed tools should be available on demand, within a short time of mobilisation;
—
to assess whether this technology and specific tools can be further used to eradicate the consequences of the Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine in the Black and Azov Seas;
—
to further strengthen coordination and stakeholders’ engagement, raise awareness and share best practices.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot project.
Carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) activity is likely to increase dramatically in the Union over the coming decades and must be deployed with caution for optimal climate impact.
This pilot project would test the format of an EU CCUS Observatory that will monitor, report and verify the captured, transported and stored CO
2
 from specific industrial installations.
Since this pilot project has the role of testing on a small scale the functioning of such an observatory, for the beginning we propose that the monitoring, reporting and verification activities consider only cement plants and waste incineration plants with carbon capture installations.
If successful, the pilot project could serve as a primary structure of knowledge, data and best practices for a permanent EU CCUS Observatory for all carbon management value chain.
Outputs of the pilot project could include:
—
proposing a framework for assessing the impact of CCUS projects and their contribution to Union climate neutrality;
—
reporting on the CCUS project pipeline in the Union and the estimated impact of those projects on carbon dioxide (CO
2
) emissions, economy, and society (two annual stocktake reports during the duration of the pilot project);
—
proposing a knowledge and best practice sharing platform easily accessible to all CCUS projects;
—
events, including closed-door dialogues with decision-makers and public events to promote the CCUS technologies;
—
a proposal for the creation of a permanent EU CCUS Observatory.

Remarks

Using taxation to change consumer behaviour is key to combatting climate change and reducing our impact on the environment. The objective of the feasibility study is to determine a model that calculates the financial cost of the environmental harm caused by products and services and thereby help to establish the appropriate tax rate to be applied to them. This model should go much beyond the current energy taxation directive that has a narrow focus on energy products.
The model should combine existing methodologies recognised in the Union generating the estimated financial cost of offsetting the environmental harm that is caused by creating, using and disposing of specified products or services. This ensures that the ultimate user of the product or service will be subject to the ‘polluter pays’ principle.
The model could, amongst others, be based on the Product Environmental Footprint method and Organisation Environmental Footprint method (Environmental Footprint methods) which measure and codify the environmental performance of products and organisations across their whole lifecycle. Those methods are scientifically sound assessment methods that are agreed at international level. They cover 16 environmental impacts, including climate change, and impacts related to water, air, resources, land use and toxicity. They are universally applicable and there are separate models for products and organisations respectively. They have been endorsed by the Union in Commission Recommendation (EU) 2021/2279 of 15 December 2021 on the use of the Environmental Footprint methods to measure and communicate the life cycle environmental performance of products and organisations (
OJ L 471, 30.12.2021, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reco/2021/2279/oj
). For example, the European Environment Agency has undertaken work to quantify the financial cost of various pollutants.
That feasibility study should take into account the findings of the ongoing ‘Study on the Polluter Pays Principle and Environmentally Harmful Subsidies’. Its findings could be informative in view of the development of benchmarks or the establishment of minimum tax rates for environmentally harmful products and services.
Finally, the feasibility study should not cover energy taxation in view of the ongoing negotiations between the European Parliament and the Council of the proposal to revise Council Directive 2003/96/EC of 27 October 2003 restructuring the Community framework for the taxation of energy products and electricity (
OJ L 283, 31.10.2003, p. 51
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2003/96/oj
).

The provisions on consumer empowerment in Directive (EU) 2018/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources (
OJ L 328, 21.12.2018, p. 82
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2018/2001/oj
) and Directive (EU) 2019/944 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 June 2019 on common rules for the internal market for electricity and amending Directive 2012/27/EU (
OJ L 158, 14.6.2019, p. 125
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2019/944/oj
) are among the most innovative in the Clean Energy Package (CEP). They oblige Member States to enable demand response through aggregation or dynamic pricing contracts, create local flexibility markets, as well as adopt enabling frameworks for (jointly acting) self-consumers or active customers and renewable and citizen energy communities. Those provisions seek to empower consumers to become active at local level on relevant energy markets by enabling them to engage in a series of innovative activities such as (collective) self-consumption, storage, energy sharing, peer-to-peer exchange and flexibility service provision. Such activities inform new business models and have the potential to accelerate the transition towards renewable energy in a cost-effective and efficient way, whilst ensuring secure access to affordable energy at the local level, provided they are enabled in a way that avoids locking in consumers in isolated self-consumption due to lack of a wider set of options, such as implicit (price signalling through time-differentiated grid tariffs and dynamic price contracts) or explicit (bid-based flexibility markets) incentives, that allow them to interact with the local system and implement energy efficiency measures. At the same time, the decentralised nature of renewable energy installations provides an opportunity to democratise Europe’s energy system by allowing Union citizens to become active and take ownership of the energy transition.
A considerable number of Member States are still lagging behind the full transposition of the above mentioned provisions with negative consequences in terms of an incoherent application of Union law as well as in terms of granting access to the same consumer rights across the Union. At the same time, in some Member States, new schemes for individual or collective self-consumption beyond building and community level have started to develop and are currently not covered by the CEP. Those other types of collective action initiatives could help alleviate energy poverty, provide Union citizens more options to take energy action, and increased investments in renewable energy, as well as help to bring the necessary flexibility to accommodate a cost-effective transition to more electrification and a renewable based energy system.
Since the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the increased need to ensure the Union’s energy independence as well as the Commission’s communication of 18 May 2022 entitled ‘REPowerEU Plan’ with its accelerated roll out of solar and heat-pumps, and call to enhance demand response and flexibility, a proper and sped up transposition of those provisions and support for new and emerging business models become ever more important in order to tap into the full flexibility potential of local renewable energy production, with close involvement of citizens. Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine has also highlighted the need for territory resilience of European communities, encouraging several municipalities and regions to developed localised resources, in the hands of their inhabitants.
The Energy Prosumer Repository should fulfil the following basic functions:
—
monitoring and mapping of individual and collective prosumer schemes, paying particular attention to levels of citizen participation, and enabling frameworks for self-consumption 
(
49
)
 and implicit and explicit demand side response in the Union;
—
collecting and analysing data on level playing field with regards to participation of citizens in implicit and explicit demand response, including related to metering requirements, asset types included/accepted, and asset availability;
—
identifying emerging ownership and business models (including peer to peer exchange, local flexibility services, energy sharing, community storage) and offers related to grid-integrated 
(
50
)
 prosumer schemes, and monitoring the guarantees of benefits to citizens, the system, and wider society;
—
identifying best practices regarding and barriers to the set-up, development of and support for grid-integrated and energy efficient prosumer schemes with high levels of citizen participation and benefits (including those not covered by current Union legislation) 
(
51
)
;
—
providing guidance to local authorities, citizens, businesses and communities regarding the set-up of grid-integrated and energy efficient prosumer schemes by providing them with models for technological, financial and administrative solutions.
The data collected through the repository would constitute a very important source of information for the European institutions, policy-makers, national, regional and local governments. Such data would fit into existing and future policy streams; they would support the development of grid-integrated individual and collective prosumer actions in a way that optimises the use of renewables, reduces the overall cost of the energy transition and thus consumer energy bills. This is line with the System Integration Strategy and Commission communication of 18 May 2022 entitled ‘Short-Term Energy Market Interventions and Long Term Improvements to the Electricity Market Design – a course for action’. In addition, it could help inform Member States that still struggle to adequately implement the above cited provisions by 2025, and contribute to the revision or improvement of the regulatory framework at Union and national level for schemes currently not covered.
On the other hand, the repository could be a great source of know-how for SMEs, local authorities, citizens and their associations that wish to set up an individual or collective actions and participate in flexibility markets, in particular in the Member States that do not have a developed regulatory framework or have little experience with best practices so far.
The repository could become a great source of information to track the progress of citizen-driven flexibility services and the progress of private investment in the renewable transition, as well as for recognising other types of collective action initiatives engaging in grid-friendly self-consumption beyond energy communities which would lower the incentive for commercial and industrial actors to ‘capture’ renewable and citizen energy communities for the purpose of engaging in innovative activities.

This preparatory action will develop a European Fellowship Scheme to support Researchers at Risk. In particular, the preparatory action will develop the procedures for the selection of grantees (assessing their risk and awarding them the fellowship) and for matching grantees with host institutions in the Union. It should also be considered to what extend the procedures should be differentiated based on the geographical origin of the request. Under this action requests from all countries outside the Union will be considered. Experiences of comparable national and NGO programmes as well as experiences of the MSCA4Ukraine action should be considered.
Furthermore, to validate the established procedures this preparatory action will award fellowships to researchers at risk in two tracks with 15 fully-funded placements in each track:
Track 1: Urgent placements for researchers at risk outside the refugee process
Track 2: Refugee researchers and follow-up placements for candidates at risk outside the refugee process
To ensure further Union added value as well as synergies of the efforts of Team Europe, the preparatory action will develop an approach to stimulate Member States to set up their own programmes as well as an approach for maximising the impact of national and Union funding by coordinating the efforts of different programmes.
This preparatory action is inspired by policy recommendations developed by the Horizon 2020 MSCA project ‘Inspireurope’.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action.
This preparatory action intends to promote a European approach to innovation rooted in arts/culture and values by linking, digital innovation and use and the arts in local ecosystems in selected regions outside Europe. A concreted approach of artistic experimentation with digital will be used to promote uptake of digital technologies in the economies of the selected regions and to promote a ‘human compatible’ and ecologically conscious use of digital worldwide. The preparatory action follows a pilot project where the idea has been validated and the policy dimension to promote a European approach to innovation as an alternative to US and Chinese approaches adjusted.
The international activities shall comprise events (i.e. fairs, exhibitions, festivals, workshops, hackathons) and artistic residencies where local and European businesses/start-ups meet with local and European artists, respectively. It is proposed to limit the activities to two selected regions - Sub-Saharan Africa and Middle East – with emerging economies where we expect that innovation rooted in culture and the arts will resonate most strongly with local thinking. It is suggested to collaborate in these selected regions also with dominant digital players that show an increasing awareness to the worldwide social and environmental impact of digital progress. One lesson learned from the pilot phase is that it is better to have two separate projects covering the two selected regions. Given the importance of artificial intelligence, the preparatory action will emphasise artificial intelligence, but does not exclude activities in other digitally pertinent topics relevant in the selected regions. The preparatory action builds among others on the S+T+ARTS programme in DG CONNECT that promotes synergies between the arts and digital technology.

This preparatory action is a continuation of pilot project PP 01 21 02 which was approved for two consecutive years and aims to overcome financial, legal and technical barriers to citizen-led renovation projects. It involves the creation of a specific Union support service for Citizens Energy Communities (CECs) and Renewable Energy Communities (REC) new actors enshrined in the Union legislation able to catalyse citizen engagement in various aspects of the ecological transition, including renovation projects. The creation of such a service could build upon the experience of cooperatives that are successfully bundling projects at a neighbourhood scale. The support service would aim to strengthen community building, to scale up and replicate successful programmes. It should include:
1. A platform for sharing experience and models, in order to build strong community dynamics to mobilise Union citizens around integrated building renovation and renewable deployment (through the tool of energy communities).
2. Support for the development of investment plans, as identifying financing options is a key element for the creation of project pipelines. (Looking for commonalities in order to scale the development of citizen-led projects. Investigating the development of models supporting renovation in conjunction with renewable deployment.)
3. Providing evidence and indicators in order to raise awareness among existing energy communities about the value of energy renovations.
4. Providing technical assistance and coaching to citizens groups, existing community organisations as well as local authorities to set up citizen and renewable energy communities dealing with building renovation, access to home ownership and energy poverty.
5. Monitoring and supporting a strong transposition of Clean Energy Package provisions concerning CECs and RECs which should be an opportunity for Member States to strengthen the role of citizens in the energy transition.
The goal of the preparatory action will be to coach renewable and citizen energy communities through the process of creating and implementing a territory transition.
2025 would be the final year of this successful pilot project and preparatory action. In order to gather all experiences from the previous project phases, the preparatory action could focus on drawing lessons, sharing best practices and disseminating experiences to multipliers in order to further boost citizens led renovations as part of the EU Renovation Wave, not least against the background of the implementation phase of the recast Energy Performance of Buildings Directive.

Pilot project PP 01 24 ‘Europe-wide solutions for free and open source software use by public services in the Union (FOSSEPS)’ not only significantly advanced the idea of Europe-wide cooperation on open source, but has done so via three concrete actions, (i) building a first Europe-wide Open Source Solutions Catalogue for public administrations (ii) identifying critical software used by European public services, and (iii) forming a European public services user group on open source.
Our Europe-wide capacity to strategically use and operationally deploy free and open source software (FOSS) is a cornerstone of strategies to achieve digital sovereignty, increased competitiveness of digital markets, innovation, and cybersecurity. The initial pilot project has been a resounding success. There is unfinished work and further interest in each of the three project pillars. The three actions listed below build on earlier achievements and propose key actions that the preparatory action would take to centrally and simultaneously meet the demand from European public services.
(i) European Applications Catalogue
Already proven benefits of savings in time and costs caused by re-using open source applications listed in national catalogues point to massive savings from having a fully functioning European Open Source Solutions Catalogue. The initial European Applications Catalogue minimal viable product created by the pilot project will need to be greatly expanded by the preparatory action to allow for more Member States’ data to be ingested, whilst still being reflected in their own national catalogues (a federated data-collection approach). In fact, many Member States do not yet have catalogues of open source software solutions, and those who do have technical difficulties federating their work. More work is needed to accommodate different data standards used by Member States, also to help Member States to create more mature entries to their national catalogues, and in turn the European Applications Catalogue. This preparatory action will aim to get open source solution information from at least 14 Member States (50 %) via standards work, canvassing, better communication, and by demonstrating the massive savings to be achieved. Data content for each listed application needs harmonisation so that user searches return meaningful results and provide useful comparative content. In addition, the initial minimal viable product created under the pilot project also needs ongoing maintenance funds to meet the evolving European Applications Catalogue. In addition to the improvement of the catalogue resulting from the pilot project, we need to allocate part of the funding to improve national catalogues and their compatibility with the European one.
(ii) Critical Software Inventory
Aside from gaining praise for tackling this pressing issue (e.g. the recent Log4J issue), the pilot project illustrated the huge lack of awareness of critical software within European public services. The pilot project provided that awareness, but awareness is not sufficient as European Public Services lack the tools to identify critical software. It is clear therefore that European public services cannot handle this issue alone. At the very least they need tools to create a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for every software they use. That is why for the Union institutions and European public services should pool their resources to a project that would keep identifying and fixing critical software. There is a need for engagement and cooperation with other industry actors in order to sustain that effort. The scope of the inventory should be extended to fit the increased use of FOSS in public administrations, as well as by vendors providing software solutions to the public sector. As part of the development of the inventory, the FOSSEPS team should develop a Union-wide maintenance strategy for the identified software in collaboration with the FOSS actors that are currently maintaining them. This mitigation strategy and its financing will be elaborated on in collaboration with the Member States. The goal of this preparatory action is ultimately that Member States increase collaboratively and autonomously their capacity to identify critical software and mitigate any potential cybersecurity risks. Special attention should be given to identifying a mechanism for the sustainability of solutions for critical software. This will strengthen and extend the current activities of public service open source expertise centres in Member States and the Commission, using funding from the preparatory action.
(iii) European cooperation on open source
The preparatory action will build on the nascent work started by the pilot project to encourage European public services to form an open source network or user group. The preparatory action will actively involve European public services across the Member States to strengthen the expertise in this network, allowing it to expand, and bring in new members. One of the possible practical outcomes of this increased capacity, to be prepared in the preparatory action, is to find ways for public service open source expertise centres in the Member States to pool their resources to allow them to collectively improve the sustainability and governance of essential open source components. This initiative will allow European public services to manage their own open source issues and collectively provide solutions, thus enabling them to become digitally sovereign in this area, while nurturing the European open source ecosystem of small open source actors.
(iv) Open source cybersecurity and sustainability
There is a need to conduct security and sustainability analyses on commonly used open source software within European public services. The preparatory action will conduct a series of bug bounties and hackathons to identify and fix criticalities and help to make critical software more sustainable by enhancing or strengthening the base software. Such activities will also help to promote the use of open source within the Union.
(v) Defining strategies to promote the re-use of software developed by or for public services
In particular, this preparatory action will promote software re-use by using a series of incentives (awards) via competitions, to provide, apart from financial prizes, practical support (e.g., consultancy, development, testing support) and help these public services to address software issues that prevent their solutions from being used by other public administrations in other Member States (e.g., internationalisation and localisation, integration and customisation).

While some progress has been made towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), many challenges remain in monitoring and implementing them effectively in Europe, as disparities are evident both among Member States and Union regions.
This is of particular importance when taking into account the need to localise the SDGs at different sub-national levels in order to ensure their implementation in light of local challenges and objectives.
One of the key challenges in monitoring and implementing the SDGs is the design and development of integrated and coherent policies that take into account the interlinkages among the SDGs and their targets. Other challenges include inadequate financing, insufficient data and monitoring mechanisms, and differing institutional capacities in European regions.
This preparatory action aims to inform the Union, national and regional policy-making with concrete recommendations on aspects related to SDG monitoring and implementation at the regional level, building on the outcome of the pilot project PP 01 22 06 ‘Monitoring the Sustainable Development Goals in the Union - Filling the data gaps’ including the co-developed set of indicators and data.
The preparatory action aims at establishing a mechanism for the regular regional monitoring of the progress towards the achievement of the SDGs. The mechanism will work on the data collection, analysis and interpretation of indicators produced at regional level (NUTS2).
This preparatory action is to be implemented over two years.
The steps to take for the implementation of the preparatory action are:
—
expanding the regional indicator set to address all SDG targets (from 55 to 169) created under PP 01 22 06;
—
validating the regional indicator set via a large scale survey targeting European regions;
—
establishing and disseminating the European regional indicator set for monitoring the SDGs with most updated data;
—
cooperating with national statistical systems on the systematic collection and dissemination of regional SDG data;
—
inferring associations in the form of complementary and trade-off interlinkages for policy actions addressing the SDGs at subnational level;
—
testing the complementarity of a series of current European policies (European Green Deal, cohesion policy, the common agricultural policy) in relation to the achievement of certain SDGs at regional level;
—
developing policy recommendations for the Commission on how European regions monitor the SDGs, and what SDG interlinkages imply for policy-making actions.

1. Partnerships for Regional Innovation: policy relevance and next steps
Innovation is an essential enabler for achieving the Union’s policy objectives, in particular the green transition and digital transformation and achieving open strategic autonomy, as well as the Sustainable Development Goals. Innovation is also essential to drive Europe’s competitiveness and to build resilience in strategic areas and reduce the dependencies and vulnerabilities that recent crises have brought to the surface.
The deep transformations of production and consumption systems brought about by the transition to a new green energy system, by the pervasive role of digital technologies, and by the challenges that the COVID-19 crisis and the consequences of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine demand for ambitious investments in innovation. However, truly transformative outcomes are unlikely to be generated by more funds in a business-as-usual approach.
New innovation policies must address two important prerequisites: meaningful involvement of local and regional stakeholders including citizens, enterprises, knowledge institutions and local authorities; and transformative, system-level innovation influencing and inspiring industrial, climate, employment and social policies, among others. They also have to take into account recent Joint Research Centre (JRC) modelling work on regional economic diversification achieved by introducing new technologies that concludes that related diversification has a greater potential for more peripheral and less developed regions than for the more developed regions that should rather pursue more path-breaking ways to innovate.
In 2022, the Commission and the European Committee of the Regions launched the Partnerships for Regional Innovation (PRI). The PRI approach was endorsed by the Commission in its communication of 5 July 2020 entitled ‘New European Innovation Agenda’.
PRI come as a response to the urgent call of the European Green Deal to address the unprecedented challenge posed by climate change, to the pressing need to achieve open strategic autonomy and to ensure that Europe thrives in the green and digital economy of the future, while strengthening social and territorial cohesion in an era of global polycrisis.
PRI have been developed at the JRC. They build on positive experiences with smart specialisation strategies and seek to address the fragmentation of funding instruments and policies in territories, and misalignments between regional, national and Union initiatives, while exploring novel approaches designed to join up efforts across governments and stakeholders, develop partnerships and amplify impact.
A first PRI Playbook has been developed and offered to the territories participating in the pilot, with a view to guiding the implementation of the pilot project.
The year-long PRI pilot project started on the 17 May 2022, it involves 74 territories and has two main objectives. The first is to thoroughly test and further develop the PRI Playbook, and through it the whole PRI concept. The second key objective is to start giving further visibility to, and co-develop, opportunities for pilot territories to connect and initiate interregional collaboration on topics in support of future regional innovation valleys under the New European Innovation Agenda, the joint local articulation of Union missions, inter-regional cooperation in new sustainable value chains, collaborative skills development, or further areas that matter most to the territories.
2. Preparatory action on PRI: objectives, scope, and activities
Based on the above, this preparatory action would:
—
open the experimentation of the PRI to a larger set of territories than the one involved in the initial action,
—
test the PRI as a bridge between local smart specialisation strategies and the deployment of the Union climate adaptation mission in regions and communities,
—
support the participation of the territories in new Union value chains linked to the deployment of the twin green and digital transitions,
—
test PRI long-term viability,
—
foster its policy traction,
—
support the deployment and implementation of the PRI concept in support of Union industrial, cohesion and research and innovation policies,
—
link the PRI to the New European Bauhaus approach where appropriate,
—
address the challenges and needs of smaller or less innovative communities and territories to mitigate the risks of an increased in innovation divide in the Union,
—
create a community of PRI practitioners.

This preparatory action has the following objectives:
—
analysis of case studies of startup villages;
—
formulation of a final report with policy recommendations to be launched in a public event.
There is no legal basis for an in-depth collection of indicators and metrics concerning innovation deployment and specifically innovative entrepreneurship in rural areas, and there is little availability of appropriate data and statistics, as well as scarce evidence of how startups can emerge and successfully grow in rural areas. Therefore, the knowledge base needs to be enhanced and broadened in order to underpin policy action with scientific support.
Moreover, there is no specific action matching innovation, startups and entrepreneurship in the current broad framework of Union policy programmes targeting rural areas. The different policies that impact on rural areas (rural development policies, regional policy, research and innovation policy) deploy a number of relevant actions, but a synthesis is missing and there is therefore a need to join the dots and extract relevant recommendations to fill this gap in future action.

The Commission has implemented the pilot project PP 02 20 02 ‘Eco labelling for aviation / Demonstration project for the introduction of a voluntary Green Label system in aviation’. That pilot project also became part of the Commission's communication of 5 December 2020 entitled ‘Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy - putting European transport on track for the future’ (COM(2020) 789 final) under Flagship 5 ‘Pricing Carbon and provide better incentives for users’. Part of the deliverables is a label demonstrator finalised in the fourth quarter of2022 accompanied by a proof of concept report which was to be delivered in the first quarter of 2023. The work performed under the pilot project clearly demonstrated the technical and operational feasibility of the labelling system for aviation.
The main objective of the environmental labelling system for aviation is to reduce aviation’s environmental footprint by facilitating more sustainable choices for consumers based on trusted, harmonised and accessible information. A holistic approach is being considered by looking at the key components of the aviation system, such as flight performance and complementary information on aircraft technology. Such an approach would incentivise the aviation industry to reduce its environmental impact by considering both readily available solutions and future technologies.
The pilot project developed the methodologies and the relevant digital distribution frameworks identifying the technical criteria to assess airline operations and the aircraft technology used, and did so in line with the applicable policies, initiatives and methodologies developed by the Commission.
In addition, the pilot project includes broad stakeholder participation with key players from the aviation industry (25+ airlines, engine and aircraft manufacturers, airports) and travel industry (Amadeus, Google, Skyscanner, Travalyst), Member States as well as NGOs (UECNA, BEUC, T+E).
Based on the positive outcomes of the pilot project a follow-up preparatory action would allow the further development of the project for the direct benefit of Union citizens by providing a potential legal basis. In this regard, further work is anticipated to explore the inclusion of non-CO
2
 climate impacts from aviation into the label assessment method. Such work might include lifecycle assessment work that will enable mode of transport comparison, as well as scientific work needed to align methodological discrepancies. Considering that the label aims to provide a total assessment of the environmental impact of aviation a thorough assessment should be made with regards to developing additional use cases covering environmental transparency methods for air navigation service providers (ANSP), airlines and aircraft manufacturers.

The Preparatory Action (PA 02 24 02) aiming to establish a book and claim system for the aviation sector in the Union should continue. Bearing in mind various business initiatives, it should carefully examine, whether IT architecture of book and claim should be based on a generic solution, extendable to cover additional sectors, with due regard to interoperability, in order to set up an internally secured, on time and reliable corporate tool at the disposal of the Commission and other business actors and to avoid possible market fragmentation or red tape.
In addition, the ongoing Preparatory Action on book and claim system should also cover the Union maritime sector in order to increase the share and to facilitate the cost-effective distribution of renewable and low-carbon fuels in the fuel mix of the Union maritime transport by separating the purchase of such fuels from their physical delivery and use. There are important differences between the maritime and aviation sectors, which needs to be well reflected within the Preparatory Action. It should be carried out in the following phases:
—
Analysing the existing legislative framework, including the relevant provisions under RED, EU ETS, AFIR and FuelEU maritime as well as any other relevant legislation in the Union, at IMO and in 3rd countries with main global bunkering hubs and those situated in green shipping corridors;
—
Developing a sound framework for book and claim mechanisms, including for:
—
sustainable fuel certification/credentials – to transfer sustainability certification/characteristics without actual transfer/use of molecules;
—
OPS green credentials – to trade green energy when using onshore power supply.
—
the design of IT architecture of the book and claim system, with due regard to the existing Union Database, the solution designed for aviation (ongoing preparatory action) and possibly other sectoral solutions (including provision of green electricity in ports through book and claim by energy companies in the future), as well as its interoperability with other relevant databases and IT systems.
—
developing a corporate tool through the Union Database to serve the Commission and businesses in demonstrating fuels’ sustainability credentials; strategic reflections on the future transport fuels master database, its interoperability with systems used by Union agencies and similar possible systems in 3rd countries, including in the context of potential global measures both for maritime (IMO) and aviation (ICAO/ECAC).

As illustrated by the recent overflight of a Chinese balloon in the United States and Canadian airspace, operations in the higher airspace, i.e. above 20km altitude, are already taking place and trigger critical challenges. The Commission has delivered a ‘Roadmap on Higher Airspace Operations (HAO)’ exploring the regulatory issues around the development of these operations in the Union and recommending a number of follow-up actions. These actions aim at better understanding these future higher airspace operations and the associated challenges in order to prepare an adequate Union regulatory framework, and consist of:
—
studies and research,
—
safety, environmental and cyber-security assessments,
—
development of the ‘regulatory sandbox’ concept to accelerate industry tests and demonstrations.
The overall objective in this field would be to enable a safe, secure, efficient and sustainable implementation of higher airspace operations in Europe and to contribute building a global approach through the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) by establishing a strong European position.
This preparatory action should allow building enhanced knowledge of these future operations and their environment, to prepare for future regulatory initiatives and build a useful ecosystem supporting industrial developments. Thanks to its recognised experience and excellence in aviation and space domains, Europe could have a leading role in this future industry. It will also be important to ensure that security and defence aspects are duly taken into account to protect sovereignty in the European airspace.
The key objectives of this preparatory action would be to support the following lines of action:
—
launching scientific studies on the conditions at high altitude affecting the flights and the persons on board (weather, medical requirements, spectrum, surveillance, communications, propulsion, etc.);
—
supporting industrial development, for instance through special certification conditions and regulatory sandboxes;
—
performing legal and regulatory assessments (including safety and environmental impact assessments), as well as gap analysis ;
—
exploiting synergies with other Union policies (space, defence, security, connectivity, etc.);
—
ensuring regional and global interoperability, mainly through ICAO;
—
building European know-how and raise awareness.
The implementation of this preparatory action will continue in 2024-2025. The results from its actions as well as from the first tests and demonstrations in Europe are aimed to support the development of a regulatory framework as of 2026.

The Commission has implemented the pilot project PP 02 22 02 ‘Comprehensive handbook for building local Urban Air Mobility (UAM) ecosystem in Europe’.
That pilot project is flagship action 7 under the Commission's communication of 29 November 2022 entitled ‘A Drone Strategy 2.0 for a Smart and Sustainable Unmanned Aircraft Eco-System in Europe’ (COM(2022) 652 final). The implementation started in the same month with the objective to provide a first version of the platform by end of 2023 for testing.
The overall objective is to enable a safe, secure, efficient and sustainable IAM implementation in Europe as foreseen in the Drones Strategy 2.0 by providing an interactive online platform (‘IAM Hub’) for IAM ecosystems.
In particular, the pilot project is currently:
—
capturing the user needs from the IAM ecosystem,
—
defining the functional and technical requirements,
—
defining the data structure,
—
defining the initial content of the system as regards safety, privacy, noise and sustainability.
In addition the pilot project includes a comprehensive stakeholder governance (‘IAM Hub Task Force’) with key players from the IAM ecosystem (operators, manufacturers, airports, vertiport operators, NAAs and municipalities).
Based on the positive outcomes of the implementation of the pilot project and initial feedback from the Stakeholder Task Force a follow-up preparatory action would allow to further develop the project for the direct benefit of Union citizens and the emerging IAM industry. The Union has a leading role in this future industry. The IAM Hub can help to maintain this lead by allowing for smooth implementation across all levels of the ecosystem.
The key objectives of the preparatory action would be:
—
widening the accessibility and functionalities of the system to further municipalities and other uses;
—
increasing the synergies between the European Authority for Aviation Safety (EASA) and National Aviation Authorities;
—
increasing the synergies with other Union initiatives e.g. CIVITAS (City-Vitality-Sustainability, i.e. City Network-Urban Mobility Transport Programme by the Commission within the Union and beyond), SESAR projects;
—
defining the legal hook of the IAM Hub as a means for collaboration in the ecosystem facilitating compliance with the Drones/eVTOL regulations as well as safety, environmental, cyber and noise issues.
The preparatory action should benefit from high visibility events, e.g. the 2026 Milan Winter Olympics, and integrate the learnings into the system.

Green digital twin transition has been identified as priority policy area to reach the objectives of both the European Green Deal and the European Digital Strategy as expressed in Commission communication of 19 February 2020 entitled ‘the Shaping Europe’s digital future’ (COM(2020) 67 final), the European Declaration on Digital Rights and Principles for the Digital Decade (COM(2022) 28 final) and in Decision (EU) 2022/2481 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 establishing the Digital Decade Policy Programme 2030 (
OJ L 323, 19.12.2022, p. 4
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/2022/2481/oj
).
The potential of digital solutions is to reduce global emissions of greenhouse gases by 20 %, if properly designed, used and governed. Steps needed to realise this potential include:
(i) metrics to quantify the net digitalisation impact and guidelines to maximise the digital enablement, that is, science-based metrics to measure the environmental impact of digitalisation. Such metrics are essential to further develop guidelines for consistent development, implementation and governance of ‘green digital solutions’ that maximise the sustainability benefits and minimise negative (rebound) effects;
(ii) adoption and use of these metrics and guidelines by all sectors of Union economy. Major sectors of our economy in their digitalisation efforts will be supported by the tailored guidelines to their sector on how to deploy green digital solutions. The metrics will be used to quantify the benefits (e.g. avoided emissions) so that these sectors can be supported in their intended net zero trajectories and report progress accordingly. Dedicated Union-wide programmes such as Digital Decade Policy Programme (DDPP) will also help to deploy at scale sustainable digital solutions and infrastructures in Member States and support these efforts with proper upskilling of the workforce;
(iii) based on the large scale evidence of such benefits, to support financial sector and public procurers need to develop clear and consistent key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics for sustainable financing of such green digital solutions as well a criteria for green public procurements, respectively. Major Union programmes and initiatives such as the NextGenerationEU and Digital Decade Policy Programme will also benefit from these metrics.
To address point (i), the European Parliament took the initiative in 2021, following Council conclusions of 17 December 2020 entitled ‘Digitalisation for the benefits of the environment’, to request a pilot project. The Commission accepted that proposal and launched a two-year pilot project ‘European Green Digital Coalition (EGDC)’ that started in mid-December 2021. The goal of that pilot project was to support the Members of the European Green Digital Coalition that was launched by Commissioner Breton in March 2021. Namely, to develop science based assessment methodologies (metrics, KPIs) to quantify the net environmental impact of digital solutions, and to develop guidelines for stakeholders in major economic sectors to use these methods consistently. The methodology will be based on international and European standards, and the guidelines were expected to be developed by the end of 2023 or early 2024. The membership of the EGDC comprises 37 large ICT companies, 45 SMEs and numerous supporting partners.
This preparatory action addresses points (ii) and (iii) by extending the European Green Digital Coalition to include sectoral players from energy, transport, construction, agriculture, and other major sectors that will deploy digital solutions with the guidance developed in the EGDC and monitor the benefits with the standardised methods developed by the EGDC.
In particular, this preparatory action will:
1. engage with at least 30 major sectoral players such as major economic actors in the Union in the abovementioned sectors to deploy proven digital solutions at scale with the support of the specific sectoral guidelines and consistently monitor the net environmental impact of such digitalisation. As a goal this preparatory action will set to achieve at least 1 Gigaton of digitally enabled CO
2
 reductions, ideally by the end of this preparatory action;
2. engage with at least financial institutions and international, national, regional and local level to adopt simple KPIs that will allow sustainable finance of digitalisation that proves to have a positive impact on environment and climate;
3. develop clear and simple technical criteria and verification methods as a proposal for the Union taxonomy when Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 of 4 June 2021 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council by establishing the technical screening criteria for determining the conditions under which an economic activity qualifies as contributing substantially to climate change mitigation or climate change adaptation and for determining whether that economic activity causes no significant harm to any of the other environmental objectives (
OJ L 442, 9.12.2021, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_del/2021/2139/oj
) will be subject to revision, and to support the development of Union-wide green public procurement criteria;
4. engage with similar and complementary initiatives such as Digital with Purpose and CODES to ensure future continuation, sustainability and global impact of this preparatory action;
5. engage with local communities and authorities for them to implement the metrics and methodology at a local level.
This preparatory action will comprise not only of ICT and vertical industry stakeholders, but also SMEs, policymakers from local and regional representatives, professional organisations and environmental NGOs. A trusted cooperative environment will be built to assess and monitor the commitments and their implementation, to share good practices and to be able to scale to other sectors and other regions of the world. Building upon the pilot project, the appropriations for the preparatory action will finance a secretariat dedicated to its implementation. Continuity with the current Secretariat would be ideal, especially if the contract of the call for tender can be extended to cover the period of the preparatory action.
High-level events will be organised under the preparatory action under the auspices of the European Parliament and the Commission, in cooperation with local partners. These can take place in different Member States, focusing on key policy areas linking the European Green Deal and the new Union’s digital and industrial strategies. The events should be web-streamed to ensure a broad public coverage and accessibility to as many Union citizens as possible. The outcomes of the events would contribute to policy development and evaluation at Union level and beyond.

The REPowerEU Plan aims to produce 10 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen within the Union and to import 10 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen from third countries. The Union is the first region that has established a regulatory framework to support a fully-fledged ecosystem for the development and uptake of renewable hydrogen to decarbonise our economy. This includes clear rules governing the hydrogen market in the Union, access to infrastructure, and allowing hydrogen imports to count towards Member State targets.
Renewable hydrogen is more expensive than fossil fuel-based hydrogen. The targeted use of public resources can leverage private sector investments by de-risking renewable hydrogen production.
The European Hydrogen Bank (EHB) will play an important role in facilitating early market creation for hydrogen. The Commission has set up auctions at the level of the Union for renewable hydrogen production under the Innovation Fund to support market development, and has also proposed to set up an international auction for imports. Both Union production and imports are important to meet the potentially large future demand from industrial sectors such as steel and chemicals.
The establishment of an international auction for imports will require additional financing. Currently, there is no dedicated funding available for the international leg of the EHB to support imports of renewable hydrogen.
On the other hand, under the domestic leg of the EHB, a pilot auction for renewable hydrogen production in the Union awarded in September 2024 EUR 700 million to six successful bidders. Following this experience and the lessons learned, the Commission launched a second auction for renewable hydrogen production in the Union on 3 December 2024 with a total budget of EUR 1,2 billion.
The EU ETS Innovation Fund finances the domestic auction, but can only be used within the Union and the European Economic Area, and not to support production in third countries. Therefore, in the EHB Communication, the Commission has proposed a Team Europe approach to bring together Member State resources and provide de-risking for third country projects. In addition, the Commission will explore options to secure dedicated funding for the international leg of the EHB from the next MFF.
In order to design a scheme for renewable hydrogen imports from third countries into the Union, substantial analytical and preparatory work is required in the immediate term. Such preparatory work could include analysing the hydrogen market landscape globally, identifying the specific risks associated with the import of hydrogen and the associated financing challenges, and the advantages and disadvantages of different auction design elements, and building on existing experience, such as the international auctions organised by the H2Global Foundation.
This preparatory action will be beneficial for all Member States that are interested in hydrogen imports into the Union, and will also be valuable for Member States that are developing hydrogen corridors connected to Union borders. Despite the lack of a dedicated budget, there is momentum for an international import auction. A number of Member States have expressed an interest in participating in such an auction. Moreover, there is keen interest from international producers and third countries to produce renewable hydrogen and export it to the Union.
A budget of EUR 1,5 million would be required for this preparatory action, with implementation to start in 2025.

The proposed preparatory action intends to develop a methodology to measure the climate and environmental impact of the consensus mechanisms used by crypto-assets and assess the feasibility of establishing environmental sustainability standards for crypto-assets with a view to the adoption of future legislative action in the area of crypto-asset financial regulation.
The preparatory action is expected to focus on the following objectives:
(a) developing a robust science-based methodology to measure the climate and environmental impact of the consensus mechanism protocols used by crypto-assets, including qualitative criteria and quantitative estimates of the total amount of carbon emissions produced, the consumption of energy and resources, and the electronic waste produced by the entire network of a particular crypto-asset and by the crypto-asset ecosystem of that crypto-asset as a whole, on a global level;
(b) conducting a comprehensive mapping of consensus mechanisms used by crypto-assets and their classification in relation to their climate and environmental impact, including an analysis of potential trade-offs;
(c) assessing the broader impact on ESG factors, in particular the relevant environmental, economic and social externalities generated by crypto-mining, including impact on high-demand chip supply, noise pollution, consumption of scarce electricity as well as the impact and financial risks posed on European public power utilities;
(d) identifying sustainable alternative to crypto-mining in the market and best practices for the development of consensus mechanism protocols that are less energy intensive and do not cause any significant harm to the Union climate and environmental objectives and energy targets;
(e) outlining different policy options to mitigate the environmental impact of certain crypto-assets and to accelerate the adoption of alternative green solutions;
(f) assessing the feasibility of developing sustainability standards for crypto-assets.
For the purpose of developing the methodology and sustainability standards, special emphasis should be placed on various factors concerning the entire network of a crypto-asset, in particular the energy consumption, the use of real resources, the carbon footprint, any electronic waste produced by the use of hardware, the incentive structure and design of the protocol, the market capitalisation and scale of operation of the crypto-assets concerned.
The Commission should ensure that the contractor has all the necessary expertise and skills to implement the preparatory action and in particular to develop a science-based methodology. The Commission should also ensure that any contractors with existing or potential professionally conflicting interests are excluded from the procurement process.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action.
This preparatory action proposes the creation of a European Capital of Small Retail (ECSR), based on the model of the European Capital of Smart Tourism. The idea was put forward by a petition to the European Parliament and is supported by unanimity of the Committee on Petitions.
The aim of the preparatory action is to promote the value and appreciation of small retail and to contribute to a collective awareness of its economic importance for local communities, notably in terms of employment, as well as its key role as part of the social fabric of urban and rural areas. It aims also to highlight the role of small retail in preserving the European way of life and the model, form and essence of cities and rural communities in the Union, and to demonstrate how small retail is an important part of the European identity.
The focus of this preparatory action is to go beyond awareness-raising and take actions that would have a lasting impact. The preparatory action should encourage small retail to digitalise and allow it to embrace digital tools for their own operations, in their business-to-business relationships and in their relationships with customers. The action should also support the green transition of small retail. With regard to all of these aspects, the creation of a ECSR should complement the Commission's #RevitaliseRetail initiative. On a larger scale, ECSR addresses the growing need to accelerate the green and digital transition of the Union’s economy, increase its resilience and support its competitiveness.
The title of a European Capital of Small Retail would be awarded periodically to one European city or more. The modalities of the selection process will be further elaborated.

Fire fatalities represent about 2 % of accidental deaths in the Union (Commission study to evaluate the need to regulate within the framework of Regulation (EU) 305/2011 on the toxicity of smoke produced by construction products in fires). An important data gap on fire safety and fire casualties in buildings, and a lack of Union data collection methodology, were identified by that Commission’s study. A fair and safe built environment is one of the building blocks of the Transition pathway for Construction presented by the Commission on 15 March 2023. The pathway acknowledges new types of fire risks brought by new materials, products, and technologies used for the green and digital transition. Fire safety is also an important consideration for the renovation wave and has been addressed by Directive 2018/844/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 amending Directive 2010/31/EU on the energy performance of buildings and Directive 2012/27/EU on energy efficiency (
OJ L 156, 19.6.2018, p. 75
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2018/844/oj
). The lack of data is an obstacle for successful policies and a first big milestone to address this issue has been achieved by pilot project PP 03 19 03 ‘Closing data gaps and paving the way for pan-European fire safety efforts’ (EU FireStat), concluded in 2022. This preparatory action is a follow-up of the successful ‘EU FireStat’ pilot project to implement a Union harmonised approach for fire statistics.
The implementation of the EU FireStat made it possible to achieve all the assumed and strongly desired goals:
—
mapping the terminology used and the data collected by the Member States regarding fire events;
—
proposing a common terminology and method to collect the necessary data in each Member State with a view to obtain meaningful datasets (based on standardised terms and definitions).
The developed proposal of a Union harmonised approach for collecting fire statistics is supported by all fire professionals in the Union and relevant authorities from at least 19 Member States who have expressed interest in its implementation.
This preparatory action aims to support these authorities in testing the practical implementation and do the groundwork for the complete roll-out of the method and effective data collection at Union level. It will allow to identify the best measures and policies to improve the fire safety of Union citizens in relation with the different Union and national policies (still approximately 5 000 deaths and a multitude of injuries are recorded each year in the Member States in building fires).
The preparatory action will also enable support of the work of the Fire Information Exchange Platform (FIEP) run by the Commission, by sharing experiences, knowledge and best practices with regard to improving safety of the built environment all over Europe, and of the Union Civil Protection Knowledge Network run by the Commission to share knowledge between all Member States and third countries involved in the Union Civil Protection Mechanism.
The preparatory action will fund the technical support to a set of Member States piloting the implementation of the EU FireStat methodology, the analysis of learnings and possible improvements to the methods, and the development of tools for data collection and consolidation. It will conclude with recommendations for:
—
the final Union harmonised methodology,
—
the roll out of the methodology in all Member States,
—
the consolidation and management of data at Union level.

The report on establishing an EU strategy for sustainable tourism adopted in March 2021 by the European Parliament asked for the implementation of an EU tourism data space, also mentioned in the Tourism Transition Pathways delivered by the Commission.
By 2025, 90 % of people who are without formal education should be regular internet users. Nowadays, 67,8 % of people with low or no education use the internet less than once a week. Simultaneously, Members States and companies across Europe should have completed retraining of 20 % of the workforce, leaving only 32 % of workers in need of reskilling. Currently, an estimated 52 % of workers need some form of reskilling. Workers in a range of sectors, especially in tourism have seen their jobs radically change in the past few years, and this was accelerated during the pandemic.
This new proposal intends to be a continuation of preparatory action PA 03 24 03 ‘Upskilling and reskilling the Tourism Ecosystem’ tabled during the last budget exercise by the Tourism Task Force. Several results were achieved. The EU competence centre for data management D3Hub supports tourism destinations and their ecosystem (with special focus on SMEs) in their data-driven green and digital transition in order to increase collaboration and knowledge transfer between tourism stakeholders. Existing tools should be taken into account (such as the EU competence centre for data management D3Hub and for support of DMOs, the European Digital Innovation Hubs Network with its newly founded working group on tourism for the support of SMEs, and actions under the call setting up the tourism data space under the Digital Europe Programme) to ensure synergies and avoid overlaps. This project also takes into consideration the Skills Partnership for the Tourism Ecosystem.
Bearing that in mind, this preparatory intends to:
—
upskill and reskill DMOs, SMEs and other tourism stakeholders in the management and use of data;
—
Connect DMOs, SMEs and other tourism stakeholders in order to strengthen existing networks and contact points and to ensure synergies.
The European Parliament also sees this objective as the first phase for the future implementation of a European Agency for Tourism.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action.
This action intends to support the fast development of game-changing innovations that have the potential to revolutionise the future of access to space and improve the competitiveness of the European space industry. Access to space is an indispensable element of the space ecosystem, without which there is no EU space policy, which supports many political priorities.
The preparatory action is expected to focus on the following objectives:
—
enabling the development of game-changing innovations for European launch solutions while adopting an innovative implementation method, by supporting the different development cycles of technology and showing willingness to concretely use those technologies on future launchers;
—
facilitating industry’s initiative to propose disruptive technologies. The industry should propose innovative solutions for the next generation of cheaper, more sustainable, agile and resilient access to space. They should do so by focusing on ambitious innovations which are not yet available, and go beyond the state of the art in the international pipelines for access to space.
The preparatory action should be implemented through a progressive approach for competitive calls starting with a proof-of-concept phase started in 2024 and continued with a development phase in the period 2025–2027.
In the first phase, the Commission launched a contest to award prizes to up to five of the most disruptive and game-changing innovations. As a follow-up, a subsequent preparatory action could be considered in 2025, to select the best three innovations identified in the previous phase, and attribute grants for their initial technology development. This will prepare the ground for a dedicated potential access to space component as part of the future Space programme in the next MFF, where final development and qualification could be supported.
Currently, there is no dedicated Union programme existing or in the pipeline for access to space. Some access to space activities supporting Research & Innovation (R&I) are implemented through the Horizon European R&I Programme. However, those actions do not support the full technology development cycle for access to space.
Putting in competition several technologies would have an added value as it would accompany the development and maturation of the most disruptive technologies all along the development cycle up to flight model delivery. This is not possible through current Horizon Europe / Space Programmes. This would ultimately prepare the ground for a possible future dedicated access to space programme or a dedicated component in the frame of the future EU Space Programme, identifying access to space as a key EU priority, benefiting to both EU institutional and commercial users.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action.
This action is intended to enable timely adoption of the space secure connectivity services provided by IRIS
2
 and GOVSATCOM, filling the gap in Union industrial capability to develop high-performance, cheap and secure satellite user terminals.
The Union is currently implementing measures to provide governments and citizens with secure connectivity via satellite, through the Union secure connectivity programme (IRIS
2
) and the GOVSATCOM component of the Union Space Programme. These services will be based on a new generation of state-of-the-art satellites, using orbits, frequencies and signal characteristics that have not been used yet by European industry players. The effective utilisation of such services relies therefore on the prompt availability of user terminals and receivers that are compatible with such characteristics. Such terminals and receivers are particularly important for emerging SatCom Service, seamlessly combining terrestrial and SatCom capabilities, for example in the automotive sector.
The objective of this preparatory action is therefore to set the condition for a competitive industry to develop terminals that can be commercialised with minimal additional effort, enabling production and market penetration with the utilisation of open standards.
In particular, the action will support companies in reaching maturity and having a solid business plan to provide high-performance, cheap and secure satellite user terminals. Such terminals would be able to:
—
integrate multiple systems and orbits, including non-geostationary satellites in LEO and possibly MEO;
—
use the IRIS
2
 frequencies (including Ka-gov);
—
suit both commercial and governmental services provided by IRIS
2
;
—
integrate terrestrial networks, 5G standards and possibly IoT applications;
—
provide for end-to-end solutions;
—
adopt all IRIS
2
 secure features.
If successful in the first year, the preparatory action should be implemented through an incremental approach for competitive calls in three phases:
—
2024: EUR 5 million on the proof-of-concept and business case development phase;
—
2025: EUR 20 million on technology development for the prototype & qualification phase;
—
2026: EUR 20 million on industrialisation and commercial prototyping.
The beneficiaries of the action would notably be the Union downstream industry, including New Space players like SMEs and start-ups.

Space systems and services in the Union provide essential services for societal functions and economic activities. In the current geopolitical context, the resilience of space systems and infrastructures is getting critical, as identified by the EU Space Strategy for Security and Defence. The space domain includes all elements relevant for the functioning of space systems and the delivery of space-based services, including the physical space environment, different orbits and spacecraft, their ground and launch infrastructure, radio frequency links, user terminals, information related to and delivered from these space assets, the relating cyber environment and the underlying industrial space sector. Thus, they need to be increasingly resilient and protected.
SMEs and start-ups in the field of space provide new technologies, services and capacities, including more and more in support of security-related missions. To ensure their reliability, those companies need to establish appropriate level of protection and cyber-resilience. For this reason, it would be appropriate to launch preparatory work to address particular security needs and propose some supportive measures for SMEs and start-ups by offsetting part of their relevant compliance costs and thus, facilitate the development of European solutions. Resilience measures for the space sector should include better coordination and cooperation between public and private space actors, including information exchange on threats and incidents. It could also be envisaged the development and uptake of relevant security standards and a framework for the exchange of best practices among commercial and governmental players on resilience measures.
In this context, the preparatory action could consist of the following actions:
—
the mapping of existing innovative solutions and services (including costs and availability) that would enable SMEs and start-ups to increase their level of cyber-resilience;
—
the identification of new potential innovative solutions and services that would enable SMEs and start-ups to increase their level of cyber-resilience;
—
the identification of technologies and facilities that would need to be developed in the Union such as testing facilities and digital twins, and related roadmaps;
—
the identification of potential supportive measures at Union and national level that would enable SMEs and start-ups to offset part of the costs related to the enhancement of their level of resilience.

The objective of this preparatory action is to continue to provide European fact-checking organisations with a concrete package of resources that can help them identify and debunk disinformation campaigns on online platforms via new, emerging technologies. Such disinformation campaigns are an increasing problem for European democracies. The scope of this preparatory action is wide and focusses on all disinformation campaigns that have an effect on public opinion but especially those focusing on climate and environmental issues and disasters and other emerging crises. This preparatory action builds on the results of other initiatives that foster the cooperation among fact-checking organisations in Europe such as the new European Fact-checking Standards Network (EFCSN, part of the ongoing pilot project PP 07 20 04 ‘Integrity of social media’, pilot project PP 07 21 02 ‘European Narrative Observatory to fight disinformation post-COVID-19’ and the work of the European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO-Smart 2019/1087). The preparatory action primarily focuses on fact-checking in relation to current and future emerging crises facing the Union, such as disinformation about climate change and Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. Additionally, this preparatory action also has a special focus on investigating and researching how new emerging technologies, such as chat-bots and other generative artificial intelligence, including large language models, can be used to spread disinformation. Furthermore, this preparatory action aims to deliver resources on how European fact-checkers can limit the potential negative effects of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) models spreading disinformation.
The preparatory action goes beyond easy-to-debunk claims like "climate change doesn’t exist" that are increasingly residual. It will focus on more complex narratives that are on the rise, such as disinformation about the Union, key political figures at Union and national levels, proposed solutions (especially those carried out by individuals that imply a change of habits) or that are supported by an unreliable science.
The preparatory action aims to focus on the medium to long-term needs of the European fact-checking community and includes lessons from the most recent national and European elections in its resources and toolkits.
The preparatory action will:
—
continue to assess the challenges and needs of Union fact-checkers to achieve near real-time debunking of disinformation campaigns, general crisis response and collecting lessons from recent crises;
—
assess the current and future disinformation threat from generative AI, including the existing chat-bots on the market, with a focus on how large language models can be leveraged by individuals, organisations or foreign states, etc.;
—
provide fact-checkers with additional toolkits - packages of resources - that can help them boost their abilities to act urgently and in near real-time on disinformation campaigns and to boost their crisis-readiness and response;
—
provide additional training materials and courses on effective crisis communication;
—
provide additional guidance on how to build rapidly a community of experts and practitioners on a disinformation and crisis topic;
—
build on the mapping of the available fact-checking networks in the Union and contribute to resources on how to leverage them effectively in a crisis;
—
build on existing visualisation and other technical tools, e.g. showing spread of disinformation on a map, that can act as ready-made building blocks for fact-checker websites and communication tools (with due consideration for existing tools and avoiding duplication);
—
continually test the package of resources with a group of European fact-checkers using debunked disinformation campaigns and previous crises as an example;
—
provide fact-checkers with resources on how to mitigate the disinformation threats from generative AI and large language models.

New technologies are changing the opinion-making dynamics and the media landscape dramatically and constantly. They allow easy distribution of information of public interest to wider audiences, thus fostering plurality. That said, the way information is created, searched and distributed online, may also accentuate polarisation as people are exposed to news, sources and ideas that adhere to their expressed preferences. This, in combination with the profit driven platforms, which share data for purely commercial reasons, can significantly undermine the potential to encounter and debate opposing viewpoints, and, as such, may pose a risk for ethical journalism, media pluralism and European democracy itself.
At the same time, in the Union, journalists and other media actors can face violence, severe threats, harassment or public shaming because of their investigative activities which seek to protect the public interest from the misuse of power, corruption, human rights violations or criminal activities. According to the Council of Europe Platform for the Protection of Journalism and Safety of Journalists, state actors commit more than half of the cases of abuses against media professionals.
We are witnessing a tidal wave of disinformation and propaganda rapidly disseminated through the internet and other media. Given the social and political consequences, it is more crucial than ever that our citizens be critical users of both media and social media and acknowledge the importance of journalism as a cornerstone of democracy. It is necessary to invest adequate financial resources in media and digital literacy and in developing common Union strategies, with journalists, academics, international and civil society organisations. This should be done in order to empower citizens and online users to recognise and be aware of dubious sources of information and to spot and expose deliberately false content and propaganda.
The ‘European Festival of Journalism and Media Freedom’ (the ‘Festival’) aims to reinforce dialogue, cooperation and partnership in the Union, especially among journalists, media outlets, civil society organisations and media literacy professionals, focusing on the crucial questions of our time. The ‘Festival’ should become a powerful tool to facilitate exchanges between media professionals from across Europe, and an occasion to raise awareness on the valuable but ever more difficult work of journalists and press freedom violations in the Union. The Festival should dedicate special focus to the role and work of journalists and it should represent an opportunity to reflect on the conditions under which journalists carry out their daily work, with a focus on psychological and physical aspects, as well as regulatory conditions.
Stronger Union support is pivotal at this time, especially in light of the recently agreed European Media Freedom Act, to promote media pluralism and support the sector of news media in its challenging transition in the digital environment.
By the time the Festival will have taken place, the European Media Freedom Act should enter into force, therefore the Festival would be the first occasion to discuss the effects of this specific piece of legislation, together with a broad representation of different actors affected by the regulatory system in place. In light of the above, stable financial support to this preparatory action would allow it to reach its full potential and achieve the expected results for the benefit of the media sector, in particular journalists.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action.
Disinformation, distrust and polarisation are growing political and security challenges for the Union and this is set to worsen with new AI tools becoming readily available to a larger audience. The availability and quality of information is crucial for the effective functioning of society, especially in a time of crisis. A lot of false information is currently being spread in society, especially via social media. One of the main strategies for fighting fake news is debunking, which consists of confronting it with facts and accepted theories. Unfortunately, existing debunking strategies have proven very ineffective, especially because they do not work with individuals that have strong belief in false information.
Research shows that Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and other influential social media provide a crucial boost for the international network of disinformation (Smith and Graham 2019). Feeding on fear and chaos, spreading fake news and misinterpreting the data, these agents are stronger than ever (Fernández-Luque and Bau 2015). However, social media provide not only a new set of tools for spreading disinformation but also a great weapon against it.
Recent research demonstrates the important role of narratives in framing facts and information in a package that can be easily transmitted across society and how studying narratives can be the key to better understanding how ideas spread across social media and why certain ideas take hold over others. As demonstrated by pilot project PP 07 21 02 ‘European Narrative Observatory to fight disinformation post-COVID-19’, the use of this methodology in understanding the flow of information and how narratives gain traction and spread, represents a valid scientific-based approach. This approach is to be integrated when elaborating policy actions around highly polarised matters and communications activity to inform society and therefore keep disinformation and misinformation at bay. Of particular note is the correlation between increased polarisation in a narrative community and the speed at which disinformation spreads within that community.
The preparatory action will support the European Narratives Observatory (the ‘Observatory’) to monitor and analyse how new narratives are created and spread within European public discourse, decipher the emotional values that guide successful narratives, map sources and key actors active in the spreading of these narratives and develop recommendations for effective communication and policy.
The use of narrative understanding and analysis is nothing new – having been used very successfully by, for instance, Nelson Mandela in bridging the gap and creating understanding in apartheid South Africa – and the Observatory makes these analyses and understanding more broadly available by providing a value-free map of existing narrative communities and a key to better understanding why certain beliefs are held within certain communities. This makes it easier to communicate effectively and more difficult to spread disinformation.
The preparatory action will build on the networks of stakeholders and actors already established under the pilot project such as journalists, AI experts and the main fact-checker communities, such as the European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO), policy makers and policy actors in working sessions to identify ongoing narratives and develop new ones to combat fake news and disinformation, and so to expand areas of the research infrastructure. It will also keep building on the tools for policy-makers and key stakeholders on how insights from the Observatory can help reframe issues in a way that depolarises conversation and makes the narrative communities less receptive to disinformation.
Building on the work developed by the pilot project, the Observatory will strengthen the existing methodology to expand on the areas and languages analysed and be able to build stronger tools to support key stakeholders - including journalists, fact-checkers, policy-makers – in deploying the insights from the observatory in combatting disinformation and polarisation in public discourse. The current methodology first identifies the dominant narratives by combining natural language processing and more traditional methods of qualitative narratology. By using complex systems science, the Observatory then maps the dynamics of how narratives spread and develop and how the narrative communities interact. This illustrates in real time how narrative communities expand, which narratives grow and take root and how disinformation is deployed in this more complex environment. The third element of the methodology allows the assessment of the deeper correlations and patterns that can be observed with a view to understanding them in more detail.
Tools foreseen to be made fully available during the pilot project phase include: a rapid alert system, manuals to combat disinformation and polarisation and trainings for journalists, fact-checkers and stakeholders on how to better make use of insights from the narrative observatory. The preparatory action would expand on these tools and explore the possibilities offered by AI to further improve the suite of tools and analysis. Like the European Media Monitor, the Observatory provides daily analysis of how narratives and narratives communities spread and develop by monitoring hundreds of thousands of users and narratives across different languages, themes and platforms. It is intended to be a tool which bridges the misunderstandings between polarised communities and reduces the spread of disinformation. This might prove particularly relevant in a world where AI is rapidly expanding and threatening the health of our media ecosystem even more.
For instance, the work developed so far by the Observatory during its ongoing pilot project phase shows the impact of the global pandemic and Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine on climate narratives. By working closely with a broad community of stakeholders, including journalists, fact-checkers and organisations working on climate change the Observatory seeks to provide a number of tools and services to combat the spreading of disinformation on climate change by working with narratives. The Observatory is an additional very useful tool in the European toolbox to combat disinformation and polarisation.
Remembering the words of Ludwig Wittgenstein: ‘the world we see is defined and given meaning by the words we choose. In short, the world is what we make of it.’
Building on the work already developed during the pilot project phase – including the existing issue-specific areas of the observatory (including climate change, COVID-19 and migration), the tested methodology, the network of stakeholders, journalists and fact-checkers, and the suite of tools made available, the preparatory action would continue to coordinate with other existing European projects and infrastructures including the EDMO and SoBigData++ to ensure that there is no duplication of effort and that resources are devoted to supporting the investigative and research work and that the infrastructures and technical support available are used. The preparatory action will support action at national and multi-national level focused on detecting and analysing disinformation campaigns. The results of the preparatory action would be made available to other European and national projects and ensure sharing of best practices and recommendations for effective communication. The preparatory action will also continue to make available interactive databases where research findings on narratives and recommendations can be accessed by users and relevant stakeholders.

The Preparatory Action will create a truly social media public sphere specifically for younger European generations, by portraying the sense of togetherness reflected in a common culture, similar lifestyle, and shared values in a target group-appropriate way. Such a sense of European identity is undermined by the continuously increasing intensity of disinformation aiming to create divisions among young Europeans. This preparatory action focuses on social media platforms, which is an environment where disinformation is particularly prevalent, yet which stands for the vast majority of the media diet of younger generations.
Support for social media spaces specifically addressing – and, more importantly, actually reaching – young Europeans with engaging and constructive narratives related to the European project to counter divisive disinformation campaigns remains limited, despite its importance for the future of European democracy and identification. During the last European elections for example, widespread dissemination of disinformation challenged the information young people received on social media platforms. To address this issue, an audience-centric approach, highly connected and engaged with the target audience is needed that both addresses deceptive and misleading narratives head-on and fosters societal resilience of young audiences against spurious information sources in the mid- to long-term through media literacy. Efficient tools to foster resilience for this are prebunking methods, which help the target audience to recognise misleading narratives and understanding bias. Low-threshold, tailored content can also support young Europeans to identify credible sources and avoid misleading or fraudulent information. Another component is the examination of the opportunities and risks associated with AI and algorithm feeds, including their impact on digital interactions and mental health on the target audience illustrated by current trends. Attempts to manipulate the public debate through disinformation narratives and information manipulation could be tackled by media and information literacy initiatives e.g. with schools or universities.
Young people spend a disproportionate share of their media time on social media whose feeds are powered by algorithms and AI models focusing entirely on commercial logic. This has consequences for current affairs content, which has an increasingly more difficult time achieving any organic reach. To create impact, such content must smartly adapt to this new form of attention economy to contribute, in a technologically healthy way, to networks and platforms where young Europeans gather and engage.
Moreover, social media use shifts from social interaction in large groups and communities to pure video consumption. The Preparatory Action aims at increasing relevant content formats, and narratives for a variety of social media platforms that provoke social interaction among young Europeans to foster togetherness and cross-border exchange. Next to fighting illegal content and societal harms online, it is crucial to simultaneously counter it with credible and trustworthy narratives on the Union and Europe, where Europeans drive the actual ‘story-telling’.
These narratives will be made available in all EU languages, or in as many as possible, to achieve comprehensive reach across Member States. Additional non-EU languages widely spoken on the territory of Member States are considered an asset.
In order to attract younger Europeans to European ideas and values, and in order to truly empower European citizens through digital platforms, the preparatory action will support curated online spaces on social media to create, collect and adapt narratives that deal creatively with topics that are of proven interest to young Europeans, and which will contextualise them in order to make them compelling and appealing to the target group. According to several recent multi-country studies , concerns voiced by young Europeans converge on a number of common themes. For instance, the cluster around issues such as the cost-of-living crisis, jobs, and social security is influenced by the experience of inflation and the reversal in interest rates since the second half of 2021. Similarly, young people’s intense longing for peace and mental wellbeing was certainly heightened by the experience of long Covid-19 lockdowns and related civil strife, and ultimately by Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine as well as other recent international conflicts.
The wish for wholesale stability and security across all areas of life is perhaps the most important motivation across the board: From physical and mental health to international relations, and from living conditions to the labour market. On a secondary level come issues such as the climate crisis, environmental degradation, as well as social and economic inequality, exclusion, discrimination, and an ever more divisive public sphere. Young people feel increasingly cowed by the current poly-crisis.
The European added-value is created by comparing and contrasting regional experiences and points of view on matters of pan-European importance. The aim is to address relevant Union-level topics, and at the same time give a forum to local as well as community perspectives, allowing young users to identify strongly with the content. The preparatory action will pay particular attention to addressing non-cosmopolitan audiences and young Europeans with fewer opportunities in their mother tongue.
This ambitious pan-European and multilingual initiative will stimulate offline and online, open, true, deep, and constructive debates about current and future life in Europe among young Europeans. By using innovative formats on digital platforms, with the ultimate goal of creating greater awareness about European visions, events and realities and greater engagement of Europeans towards European values and ideas, the action subsequently contributes to a more active and resilient civil society.

Following the expected results of the first cycle, the next phase should be dedicated to the development and deployment of a first demonstrator. Based on the defined objectives of the pilot project, this should include Artificial Intelligence tools as an underlying technology that goes beyond the mere translation and subtitling of content. The first demonstrator should already explore the possibility of using AI to curate content, e.g. by generating trailers and thumbnails of available content where possible. Technological developments, including generative AI, should form a main element of the Portal’s search engine and recommendation system, among others. As this could be realised in many ways, the first demonstrator should explore and apply those potential avenues. Key elements are: a non-discriminatory search function, the development of algorithms that place public value at the centre, and a high level of transparency in translation systems, which is necessary to ensure trust in content. It is not only the speed at which developments are taking place in this area - but also the fact that there are no algorithms that are non-discriminatory and in line with European values - that make it necessary to develop these independently.

Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, accompanied by an information war for minds and hearts, including in Ukraine, other candidate countries, the Union, and in Russia and Belarus, coupled with the elimination of independent media inside Russia and Belarus, presents a responsibility for the European Union to take leadership for safeguarding media plurality and independence in the wider regional context.
With freedom of expression as one of the Union’s fundamental values, the Union has now become a major hub for those in Russia and Belarus striving for freedom of expression and democracy. This preparatory action builds on the pilot project of the same name and, by closing the gap in existing Union financing programs, aims to provide continuous support for independent media in exile as long as it takes for democracy to prevail. The preparatory action answers the multiple calls from the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission to support independent media.
Despite external and internal challenges in the area of press freedom, the Union remains the world's safest place for media and journalists to do their work. Independent journalists and entire editorial newsrooms from Russia and Belarus have already fled and reallocated to the European Union countries. They are continuing their work in the fight for democracy in their home countries, but from a safe area within the Union, where they are not at risk of brutal repressions, reprisals, and imminent imprisonment for telling the truth. The grip of power in Russia and Belarus has become stronger in these past two war years. The situation is deteriorating, and information space is shrinking. Many journalists, civil society, and opposition leaders have been silenced, some forever. At the same time, support is needed also for Ukrainian media and their staff who have come to the Union together with war refugees from Ukraine.
Media organisations face an immediate lack of resources to continue their activities, challenges of establishing viable business models in the face of increasing closure and constraints in the Russian-Belarusian information and physical space, as well as a general decline in people's purchasing power as a result of the war. Unlike emergency solutions, where like-minded partners played a major role in solving acute financial and resource problems of media relocating to the Union in a matter of first months, this preparatory action aims to offer a predictable support mechanism that provides core support, opportunities for innovation and development in the longer term. It will improve and expand support provided by the pilot project.
The goal of the preparatory action is to promote the preservation of a pluralistic media environment of the affected countries, even while journalists and media are working from exile. The broader long-term aim is to make Europe a safe place by helping the people of Russia and Belarus in their democratic aspirations, where independent media play an indispensable role.
The preparatory action aims to build on the precise support needs identified by the pilot project and subsequently to provide appropriate support for independent media and journalists from Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus who have relocated and are working from Member States by:
—
continuously assessing and re-evaluating the needs and challenges of independent newsrooms and professional journalists who have relocated their operations. This becomes particularly crucial given the deteriorating security situation in their respective home countries, which introduces additional layer of complexity, including the imperative to keep themselves, their sources and audience secure;
—
establishing, empowering, and extending support networks across multiple Member States to offer tailored assistance to the exile newsrooms and journalists. Overall, the support aims to cultivate conditions for exile media to sustain their work. This includes, but not limited to, aiding the exploration and introduction of viable business models, introducing innovative technical and content format solutions to reach audiences (including those with possibly limited access to the internet and other resources), as well as seeking synergies and promoting sharing of best practices, promoting networking (in particularly among exile media), all while ensuring media independence and fostering plurality.

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action.
The objective of this preparatory action is to support the development and deployment of a coordination centre for an EU Biodiversity Observation Network.
Biodiversity is fundamental to human well-being and a healthy planet yet it is declining faster than at any time in human history. The biosphere is being altered to an unparalleled degree, eroding the health of ecosystems and flow of ecosystem services, on which our very existence depends. The drivers behind this decline are anthropogenic, namely land and sea use, direct exploitation of organisms, climate change, pollution and invasion of alien species. Swift actions are needed to mitigate them and put biodiversity back on the path of recovery.
To bend the curve on global biodiversity loss, nearly 200 countries agreed in December 2022 on new biodiversity goals and targets, in the so-called Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). The Union is firmly committed to leading by example. The global framework is well aligned with the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, and other key flagship initiatives of the European Green Deal.
The implementation of the biodiversity policy frameworks has to be well monitored, in order to ensure effective tracking of the progress towards the goals and targets. The robust policy monitoring will depend on the regular and frequent provision of high quality data and information, underpinned by a systematic field observation of biodiversity over a long time frame. This is not currently the case in the Union. Biodiversity data of good quality which is available at an adequate spatial and temporal scale is scarce, leading to significant knowledge gaps. While it clearly demonstrates the dire state of biodiversity in the Union, the existing data is insufficient to generate actionable knowledge – knowledge that enables development and deployment of well targeted actions to tackle the drivers of biodiversity loss, in a cost-effective manner and at different spatial scales.
Furthermore, biodiversity data collection is dispersed among a wide range of non-governmental organisations, public authorities, research networks and the private sector mainly for environmental impact assessments. Most biodiversity observation programmes do not have the necessary spatial and temporal resolution to assess the state and the trends of species and habitats and their dependence on the pressures exerted upon them. Moreover, there is no common objective or mandate across all the actors involved in the data collection, curation, modelling and use. The challenge is therefore also to harness scientific advances and bring together Member States, stakeholders, various institutions, and other organisations or initiatives to strengthen current efforts and devise a structured and cost-effective Union-level approach to biodiversity observation.
The EU Biodiversity Strategy put in place the Knowledge Centre for Biodiversity (KCBD), with an aim to organise and mobilise existing knowledge in systematic monitoring of the policy implementation. However, no dedicated mechanism or instrument exists at Union level to coordinate and foster the generation and use of high quality data that underpins that biodiversity knowledge base and to provide guidance and trainings on the metrics to be used. This is a major bottleneck for an effective implementation of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and Union commitments to the GBF, in particular for its mainstreaming goals.
More than ever, the Union needs to step up the efforts in raising the capacity for biodiversity observation. First steps have been taken through the Horizon 2020 project EuropaBON. This preparatory action proposes a design for a European Biodiversity Observation Network to monitor the status and trends of European biodiversity and ecosystems. It has identified (i) the key users’ needs, (ii) the major monitoring initiatives in place, (iii) the minimum list of essential biodiversity variables to be monitored, and (iv) the gaps and bottlenecks still hampering a fluid and functional biodiversity data collection and analysis flow in Europe. Besides data gaps, another major bottleneck is the use of existing data, which is not maximised. Integration of current biodiversity data flows across all variables and realms is insufficient. Relevant institutions often miss advanced statistical and modelling technical skills to coordinate such integration. Only half of the monitoring programmes evaluated by the EuropaBON project have partial automatisation and harmonisation of the data streams and, again, only half of them have sufficient data available to derive essential biodiversity variables. The EuropaBON project is also developing a blueprint for a so-called Union-level coordination centre that would help to address the identified shortcomings and underpin the implementation of the observation network.
The EuropaBON work is a welcome development in addressing deficiencies in securing high quality biodiversity data in the Union. However, no clear follow-up steps have been planned by the Commission to operationalise it by testing and piloting its outputs jointly with Member States, and to address options for a coordination centre or a virtual platform. The action is scheduled to finish in 2023, and it is essential to secure timely and ambitious follow-up in 2024 through this preparatory action, in order to put concrete solutions in place and secure adequate data for the assessment of implementation of the EU Biodiversity Strategy.
The preparatory action will address the urgent need for coordination, integration, harmonisation and strengthening of biodiversity data collection and analysis, in order to inform policymaking at local, national, European and international level. The preparatory action will focus on the operationalisation of a set of biodiversity variables with a direct application in policy and decision-making. This will include capacity building, including professional taxonomic expertise and citizen science.
The preparatory action will contribute to development of the entire data-to-knowledge chain based on direct observations and transparent scientific approaches, and it will prove the added value of investing in clear access and coordination of biodiversity data. It will serve a more robust implementation and impact assessment of public policies, and the elimination of certain barriers for investors and firms to identify nature positive capital flows.
The aim is to exploit the full potential of biodiversity-related data in Europe by (a) bringing together, augmenting, empowering and coordinating existing observation schemes, (b) assimilating and harmonising Union, national and local data, and (c) helping design new (standardised) observation schemes to fill data gaps.
Specifically, the preparatory action will support the following activities:
—
piloting and testing a Union biodiversity observation service, featuring key functions and services as proposed under the EuropaBON project, by building on, connecting and reinforcing existing institutions, and thereby contributing to the development of the Global Knowledge Support Service for Biodiversity (GKSSB) adopted at the Convention on Biological Diversity COP15;
—
implementing workflows that deliver harmonised Union-wide biodiversity data necessary to build policy-relevant indicators (see EU dashboard and global monitoring framework for the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework);
—
providing technical assistance to Member States regarding the implementation of the biodiversity observation network proposed by the EuropaBON project and contributing to the GKSSB;
—
building capacity for biodiversity observation by providing trainings for taxonomic experts and strengthening citizen science networks (to be shared with the GKSSB).
Besides EuropaBON, this preparatory action will also build on and contribute to other relevant Horizon Europe projects as well as the pilot project ‘Assessing Butterflies in Europe’ and preparatory action PA 09 20 01 ‘EU pollinator monitoring and indicators’. It will be implemented in close collaboration with the KCBD and the European Environment Agency.

EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA
Under the Agreement establishing the European Economic Area, the EEA EFTA States take part in a wide range of Union policies covered by heading 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 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 EEA EFTA State by the gross domestic product at market prices of all the Member States plus that of the EEA EFTA State concerned.
For 2025 the proportionality factor is estimated at 2,79 % (on the basis of 2023 figures), i.e. 2,58 % for Norway, 0,17 % for Iceland and 0,04 % for Liechtenstein. For budget lines that only cover payments on commitments of the previous programming period, the factor is estimated at 2,37 % (on the basis of 2022 figures), i.e. 2,19 % for Norway, 0,14 % 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 EEA 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 EEA EFTA contribution for the operational part for 2025 is estimated at about EUR 662 594 335 in commitment appropriations. The EEA EFTA States will also share in the administrative expenditure directly linked to the implementation of these policies.

BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION)
A.   
INTRODUCTION
This Annex is drawn up in accordance with Article 52(1) and the reporting requirements laid down in Article 52(1), point (d)(iii), of the Financial Regulation.
This Annex covers capital operations and debt management in 2023. In that context, it provides a comprehensive overview of borrowing and lending operations. The overview provides inter alia detailed information on maturities, schedule of payments, interest due on aggregate level, the investor base on the primary market, and, where applicable, the dimension and costs of the common liquidity pool underpinning the diversified funding strategy, as well as the borrowing plan. In terms of the impact to the Union budget these operations give rise to lending (loans), financial liabilities (borrowings) and contingent liabilities.
Budgetary guarantees, i.e. guarantees provided to different implementing partners under the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), European Fund for Sustainable Development Plus (EFSD+) and external lending mandates, are not presented in this Annex. Additional information on these instruments, their operations and effects on the Union budget are provided in the corresponding working document attached to the draft budget pursuant to Article 41(5) of the Financial Regulation. Additionally, an overarching overview and headroom assessment is provided in the specific annual report pursuant to Article 256 of the Financial Regulation.
In addition, financial liabilities borne by the Union budget as a result of borrowing operations financing non-repayable support under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) as well as the use of borrowing proceeds for the financing of other Union programmes under NextGenerationEU are covered in detail in this Annex.
This Annex provides in particular an overview of the amount and composition of borrowing activities and associated disbursements of loans as of 31 December 2023.
There are two main types of loans (lending) financed through borrowing-and-lending operations:
—
loans to provide financial assistance to third countries
 (i.e. in 2023 outstanding loans related to: macro-financial assistance programme (MFA) loans and Euratom loans to third countries); and
—
loans to provide financial assistance to Member States
 (i.e. in 2023 outstanding loans related to: Balance of Payments (BoP) loans, European Financial Stabilisation Mechanism (EFSM) loans, Euratom loans, SURE loans, RRF loans).
To finance these programmes the Commission uses as of January 2023, a unified funding approach implemented through a diversified funding strategy, which delinks the disbursement of loans to a beneficiary from the issuance of the EU bonds. The diversified funding strategy was established for NextGenerationEU in 2021, but in December 2022 and in accordance with Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2022/2434 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 December 2022 amending Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 as regards the establishment of an diversified funding strategy as a general borrowing method (
OJ L 319, 13.12.2022, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2022/2434/oj
), it was extended to also cover programmes of financial assistance for which the basic acts entered into force on or after 9 November 2022, thereby creating a unified funding approach to finance these programmes. Back-to-back lending – which is the approach that the Commission used before, in which each loan is funded with a corresponding EU bond that fully matches the Union loan in terms of its maturity, interest rate and repayment schedule – remains still possible in duly justified cases. The MFA+ instrument for Ukraine, which came into force on 14 December 2022, was the first programme to which this diversified funding approach was extended.
The repayments by the beneficiaries are used to service the debt of the Union, giving rise to contingent liabilities. Whether or not these contingent liabilities result in actual losses, and the size of any such losses, will depend on future events which are difficult to predict. Due to the delinking of the loan disbursements from the issuance of the EU bonds, operations under the diversified funding strategy also give rise to financial liabilities in the Union budget.
For loans granted, the total outstanding nominal amount on 31 December 2023 was EUR 254 101 375 284, of which a total of EUR 220 608 375 284 referred to operations inside the Union and EUR 33 493 000 000 outside the Union. Consequently, the gross carrying amounts of outstanding operations covered by the Union budget totalled EUR 255 692 096 242 (nominal amounts including accrued interest and amortised costs) of which a total of EUR 221 882 806 155 referred to operations inside the Union and EUR 33 809 290 087 outside the Union. For those loans granted outside the Union, the expected credit loss recognised in the Union’s financial statements on 31 December 2023 amounts to EUR 9 070 415 110,41. The expected credit loss is not reflected in the gross carrying amount of the loans.
For borrowing operations, the total outstanding nominal amount on 31 December 2023 was EUR 458 503 100 000 of which a total of EUR 156 861 100 000 was financed under back-to-back operations and EUR 301 642 000 000 was financed under the unified funding approach used to finance loans and non-repayable support under NextGenerationEU and MFA+ for Ukraine 
(
62
)
. Consequently, the outstanding operations covered by the Union budget totalled EUR 344 302 743 201 in gross carrying amount (nominal amount including accrued interest and amortised costs). Since the implementation of the unified funding approach in 2023, it is not possible to make a distinction between funding of operations inside and outside the Union as the bond proceeds are allocated to a central funding pool before being allocated to relevant programmes.
In 2023 issuances of EU bonds were executed via auctions and syndications in line with pre-announced planning, taking into account expected disbursement needs. By the end of 2023, EU issuances had in total attracted more than 1,700 different investors over 70 different countries. Over 60 % of investment in EU-bond syndications came from investors located in the Union, and more than 20 % came from international investors operating from the UK. The remainder came from international investors in Asia or other non-EU European countries like Norway and Switzerland. Over 65 % of the EU-bonds issued had been going to buy-and-hold investors (i.e., fund managers, insurance companies, pension funds and central banks / official institutions). Investor demand was also diversified across different maturities. Central banks / official institutions and bank treasuries (which usually prefer to invest in maturities up to 10 years) accounted for about 45 % of purchases of EU-bonds in the primary markets, while pension funds and insurance companies (which prefer maturities above 10 years) accounted for almost 15 %.
The annual average cash holdings in the central funding pool for 2023 stood at EUR 47 800 000 000 reflecting slower than initially planned cash outflows. Liquidity holdings generated a net income of EUR 69 400 000 from January to December 2023, which was shared proportionately between the Union budget and loan beneficiaries (RRF and Ukraine under MFA+).
In line with the methodology for calculating the interest costs incurred by beneficiaries of funding under the diversified funding strategy as set out by Commission Decision (EU) 2024/1974 
(
63
)
, the cost of funding for loans under the time compartment corresponding to the period January to July 2023 was 3,3 % and for the time compartment corresponding to the period July to December 2023 was 3,6 %.
In relation to the borrowing plan for operations after the end of 2023, in 2024, the Annual Borrowing Decision allowed the Commission to issue up to a maximum amount of EUR 160 000 000 000 in long-term funding. In line with its funding plans, the Commission raised in the first half of 2024 EUR 73 800 000 000 and in the second half of 2024 EUR 64 200 000 000 billion, bringing the total raised in 2024 to EUR 138 000 000 000. For 2025, the Annual Borrowing Decision allows the Commission to issue up to a maximum amount of EUR 170 000 000 000 in long-term funding. The Commission intends to issue EUR 90 000 000 000 of long-term EU-bonds between January and June 2025.

Technical notes on tables
Exchange rate: the amounts in column 2 ‘Equivalent at date of disbursement’ are converted at the rate applicable on the date of signature. As regards refinancing operations, Table 1 shows both the initial operation (e.g. in 1979) and the replacement operation (e.g. in 1986), the amount for the latter being converted at the rate of the initial operation. The resulting duplication affects the annual figures but is eliminated in the total.

Column 3 ‘Initial amount paid up to 31 December 2023

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
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1994/2728/oj
), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (
OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2009/480/oj
) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (
OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2018/409/oj
), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 32(9) of Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 June 2021 establishing the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe, amending and repealing Decision No 466/2014/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EU) 2017/1601 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (
OJ L 209, 14.6.2021, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2021/947/oj
). the net assets on 31 July 2021 of the Guarantee fund for external actions were to be transferred into the common provisioning fund. That transfer took place on 1 August 2021.
The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from the Guarantee Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations.
In the event of defaults by loan beneficiaries, the payments for Union debt related to MFA are covered up to a level of 9 % of the total amount due by the common provisioning fund. In the event that the common provisioning fund is fully used up, the Union budget must replenish the provisioning fund to the minimum provisioning rate of 9 %.

3.   
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
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1994/2728/oj
), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (
OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2009/480/oj
) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (
OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2018/409/oj
), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 32(9) of Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 June 2021 establishing the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe, amending and repealing Decision No 466/2014/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EU) 2017/1601 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (
OJ L 209, 14.6.2021, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2021/947/oj
). the net assets on 31 July 2021 of the Guarantee fund for external actions were to be transferred into the common provisioning fund. That transfer took place on 1 August 2021.
Pursuant to Article 215(1) of the Financial Regulation the provisions made to cover the financial liabilities arising from financial instruments, budgetary guarantees or financial assistance are to be held in a common provisioning fund.
The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from each relevant compartment of the common provisioning fund to maintain its target amount.
In the event of defaults by loan beneficiaries, the payments for Union debt related to MFA are covered up to a level of 9 % of the total amount due by the common provisioning fund. In the event that the common provisioning fund is fully used up, the Union budget must replenish the provisioning fund to the minimum provisioning rate of 9 %.
The macro-financial assistance of up to EUR 1 000 000 000 under Decision (EU) 2022/1201 and of up to 5 000 000 000 under Decision (EU) 2022/1628 constitutes a financial liability for the Union within the overall volume of the External Action Guarantee under Regulation (EU) 2021/947.
The total amount of up to EUR 6 000 000 000 of Union’s exceptional macro-financial assistance loans to Ukraine under Decisions (EU) 2022/1201 and (EU) 2022/1628 benefits from 9 % of paid-in provisioning available for macro- financial assistance loans under the External Action Guarantee and from guarantees from Member States (up to 61 %). The amount of provisioning is to be financed from the financial envelope programmed for macro-financial assistance under Regulation (EU) 2021/947 for a total amount of EUR 540 000 000. That amount is to be committed and paid into the common provisioning fund under the multiannual financial framework 2021–2027, laid down in Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 of 17 December 2020 laying down the multiannual financial framework for the years 2021 to 2027 (
OJ L 433 I, 22.12.2020, p. 11
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2020/2093/oj
). In addition, during the period from 2021 to 2027, following request by Ukraine, the interest rate subsidy for the loans under those Decisions is to be borne by the financial envelope referred to in Article 6(2), point (a), first indent, of Regulation (EU) 2021/947.
As regards the coverage of the financial liability arising from the EUR 18 000 000 000 of support in the form of loans to Ukraine for 2023 through the MFA + instrument, Regulation (EU Euratom) 2020/2093 has been amended to allow, as a guarantee, the mobilisation of budgetary resources over and above the multiannual financial framework ceilings and up to the limits of the ceilings referred to in Article 3(1) and (2) of Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 of 14 December 2020 on the system of own resources of the European Union and repealing Decision 2014/335/EU, Euratom (
OJ L 424, 15.12.2020, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/2020/2053/oj
). In addition, for the period from 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2027, that Regulation provides for an interest rate subsidy by the Union for the loans under that Regulation. Member States may provide contributions to the interest rate subsidy. These contributions will constitute external assigned revenue in accordance with Article 21(2), point (a), of the Financial Regulation.

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
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1994/2728/oj

OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1
, ELI:

, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2021/947/oj
). the net assets on 31 July 2021 of the Guarantee fund for external actions were to be transferred into the common provisioning fund. That transfer took place on 1 August 2021.
The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from the Guarantee Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations.
In the event of defaults by loan beneficiaries, the payments for Union debt related to MFA are covered up to a level of 9 % of the total amount due by the common provisioning fund. In the event that the common provisioning fund is fully used up, the Union budget must replenish the provisioning fund to the minimum provisioning rate of 9 %.

EURATOM BORROWINGS TO IMPROVE THE DEGREE OF EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY OF NUCLEAR POWER STATIONS IN THE COUNTRIES OF CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AND THE COMMONWEALTH OF INDEPENDENT STATES
1.   
Legal basis
Council Decision 77/270/Euratom of 29 March 1977 empowering the Commission to issue Euratom loans for the purpose of contributing to the financing of nuclear power stations (

, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/1977/270/oj
).
2.   
Description
Pursuant to Decision 94/179/Euratom (
OJ L 84, 29.3.1994, p. 41
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/1994/179/oj
), the European Union extends the scope of Euratom borrowings under Decision 77/270/Euratom to the improvement of the degree of efficiency and safety of nuclear power stations in the countries of central and eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States.
The maximum amount of Euratom borrowings for the Member States and third countries remains fixed at EUR 4 000 000 000.
In 2000, the Commission decided on a loan for Kozloduy in Bulgaria (EUR 212 500 000) and the last instalment was in 2006. In 2000, the Commission granted a loan to K2R4 in Ukraine but reduced the loan amount to the EUR equivalent of USD 83 000 000 in 2004. K2R4 was granted a loan of EUR 39 000 000 (first tranche) in 2007, USD 22 000 000 in 2008, and USD 10 335 000 in 2009 under the 2004 Commission Decision. In 2004, the Commission decided on a loan for Cernavodă in Romania (EUR 223 500 000). A first instalment of EUR 100 000 000 and a second one of EUR 90 000 000 were disbursed in 2005 and the last one of EUR 33 500 000 in 2006.
In 2013, the Commission decided to grant a loan to Energoatom, Ukraine, of EUR 300 000 000 for safety upgrades of nuclear power plants. The loan will be provided in cooperation with the EBRD, which provides another EUR 300 000 000 loan in parallel. The conditions precedent to the initial availability of the loan have been assessed as fully met in 2015 and the loan was declared effective.
On 27 May 2015, the Commission authorised disbursements under the Euratom loan to Energoatom in the amount of up to EUR 100 000 000, subject to Energoatom having drawn the loan amount granted by the EBRD in an amount not less than EUR 50 000 000. These loans benefit from State guarantees which cover 100% of the amounts outstanding at year end. The first tranche of EUR 50 000 000 was disbursed in May 2017 and the second tranche of EUR 50 000 000 was disbursed in July 2018. A third tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was disbursed in July 2020 and a final tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was disbursed in December 2021.
3.   
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
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1994/2728/oj
), subsequently replaced by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 of 25 May 2009 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (
OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2009/480/oj
), amended by Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2018/409 (
OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2018/409/oj
), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 32(9) of Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 June 2021 establishing the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe, amending and repealing Decision No 466/2014/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EU) 2017/1601 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (
OJ L 209, 14.6.2021, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2021/947/oj
) which replaced Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009, the net assets on 31 July 2021 of the Guarantee fund for external actions were to be transferred into the common provisioning fund. That transfer took place on 1 August 2021.
The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from the Guarantee Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations.
In the event of defaults by loan beneficiaries, the payments for Union debt related to MFA are covered up to a level of 9 % of the total amount due by the common provisioning fund. In the event that the common provisioning fund is fully used up, the Union budget must replenish the provisioning fund to the minimum provisioning rate of 9 %.
From 1 January 2007, loans with Bulgaria and Romania cease to be external actions (see Article 1, third paragraph, of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94) and are therefore covered directly by the Union budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

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 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.
3.   
Effect on the budget
Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the Union budget only in the highly unlikely event that a Member State does not meet its scheduled payment obligations, whereby the payments for the Union’s debt securities related to BoP will be covered by the available headroom under the permanent own resources ceiling. As of 31 December 2022, the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 200 000 000.

2.   
Description
Article 122(2) TFEU 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 Regulation (EU) No 407/2010, the outstanding amount of loans and credit lines granted to Member States under the European financial stabilisation mechanism is to be limited to the margin available under the Union’s own resources ceiling for payment appropriations.
This item constitutes the structure for the guarantee provided by the Union. It will enable the Commission to service the debt should debtors default.
In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. Article 12 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom on the system of the European Communities own resources (

Effect on the budget
Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the budget only in the highly unlikely event that a Member State does not meet its scheduled payment obligations, whereby the payments for the Union’s debt securities related to EFSM will be covered by the available headroom under the permanent own resources ceiling. On 31 December 2022, the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 46 300 000 000.

2.   
Description
Article 122(1) TFEU allows the Council to decide, on a proposal from the Commission and in a spirit of solidarity between Member States, upon the measures appropriate to respond to the socio-economic situation following the COVID-19 outbreak.
Article 122(2) TFEU enables the Council to grant Union financial assistance to a Member State that is in difficulties or is seriously threatened with severe difficulties caused by exceptional occurrences beyond its control.
The creation of a European instrument for temporary support to mitigate unemployment risks in an emergency (SURE) following the COVID-19 outbreak should enable the Union to respond to the crisis in the labour market in a coordinated, rapid and effective manner and in a spirit of solidarity among Member States, thereby alleviating the impact on employment for individuals and the most affected economic sectors and mitigating the direct effects of this exceptional situation on public expenditure by the Member States.
Article 220(1) of the Financial Regulation states that financial assistance by the Union to Member States can take the form of a loan. Such loans should be granted to Member States where the COVID-19 outbreak has led to a sudden and severe increase, as from 1 February 2020, in actual and possibly also planned public expenditure due to national measures. That date ensures equal treatment for all Member States and allows for coverage of their actual and possibly also planned increases in spending relating to the effects on the labour markets of the Member States, irrespective of when the COVID-19 outbreak occurred in each specific Member State. The national measures, which are understood to be in line with the relevant fundamental rights principles, should be directly related to the creation or extension of short-time work schemes and to similar measures, including measures for self-employed persons, or to some health-related measures. Short-time work schemes are public programmes that in certain circumstances allow businesses experiencing economic difficulties to temporarily reduce the hours worked by their employees, who are provided with public income support for the hours not worked.
Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2020/672 states that the maximum amount of financial assistance shall not exceed EUR 100 000 000 000 for all Member States.
3.   
Effect on the budget
The COVID-19 outbreak has had a massive and disruptive impact on the economic system of each Member State. It therefore calls for collective contributions by Member States in the form of guarantees supporting the loans from the Union budget. Such guarantees are necessary to enable the Union to grant loans of a sufficient order of magnitude to Member States in order to support labour market policies which are under the greatest strain. To ensure that the contingent liability arising from such loans is compatible with the applicable multiannual financial framework and own-resources ceilings, the guarantees provided by the Member States are irrevocable, unconditional and on demand, while additional safeguards should enhance the robustness of the system. In line with the complementary role of such guarantees, and without prejudice to their irrevocable, unconditional and on-demand nature, the Commission is expected, before calling on the guarantees provided by Member States, to draw on the margin available under the own-resources ceiling for payment appropriations to the extent that it is deemed sustainable by the Commission, having regard, inter alia, to the total contingent liabilities of the Union, including under the balance of payments facility established by Council Regulation (EC) No 332/2002 of 18 February 2002 establishing a facility providing medium-term financial assistance for Member States’ balances of payments (
OJ L 53, 23.2.2002, p. 1
, ELI: 
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2002/332/oj
). In the relevant call on guarantees, the Commission should inform the Member States about the extent to which the available margin has been drawn. The need for guarantees provided by Member States may be reviewed if an agreement on a revised own-resources ceiling is reached.
Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the budget only in the highly unlikely event that Member States default, whereby the payments for Union debt related to SURE will be covered by the available headroom under the permanent own resources ceiling of the Union budget, as well as the 25% guarantee provided by all Member States. As of 31 December 2022, the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 98 355 000 000.

2.   
Description
The COVID-19 pandemic constitutes a widespread and severe public health crisis. It severely affects citizens, societies and economies worldwide. The extent of the health crisis and the policy responses taken to control it are unprecedented.
A comprehensive plan for European recovery has called for massive public and private investment at European level to set the Union firmly on the path to a sustainable and resilient recovery, creating high-quality jobs and repairing the immediate damage brought by the COVID-19 pandemic whilst supporting the Union’s green and digital priorities. To provide the financing for Regulation (EU) 2020/2094, the Commission proposed an amendment to Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 which has authorised the Union to borrow temporarily and exceptionally an amount of EUR 750 billion in 2018 prices, to increase the own resources ceiling to accommodate the liabilities and contingent liabilities for loans to the Member States. Regulation (EU) 2020/2094 determines the allocation of funds to different Union programmes in line with the strategy set out in the European Union Recovery Plan.
Up to EUR 384,4 billion in 2018 prices may be used for non-repayable support and repayable support through financial instruments.
Up to EUR 360 billion in 2018 prices may be used to provide loans to Member States 
(
70
)
. The Union will bear contingent liability in the form of a guarantee for those loans until they are repaid.
Up to EUR 5,6 billion in 2018 prices may be used for provisioning for budgetary guarantees and related expenditure.
The European Union Recovery Instrument provides funding for measures and actions to be carried out as outlined in the European Union Recovery Plan. The resources raised through the issuance are to finance the following measures: (a) measures to restore employment and job creation; (b) measures in the form of reforms and investments to reinvigorate the potential for sustainable growth and employment in order to strengthen cohesion among Member States and increase their resilience; (c) measures for businesses affected by the economic impact of the COVID-19 crisis, in particular measures that benefit small and medium-sized enterprises as well as support for investment in activities that are essential for strengthening sustainable growth in the Union, including direct financial investment in enterprises; (d) measures for research and innovation in response to the COVID-19 crisis; (e) measures for increasing the level of the Union’s crisis preparedness and enabling a quick and effective Union response in the event of major emergencies, including measures such as stockpiling of essential supplies and medical equipment and acquiring the necessary infrastructures for rapid crisis response; (f) measures to ensure that a just transition to a climate-neutral economy will not be undermined by the COVID-19 crisis; (g) measures to address the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on agriculture and rural development.
With respect to the allocation of the funds, up to EUR 384 400 million in 2018 prices in the form of non-repayable support and repayable support through financial instruments are to be allocated as follows: (i) up to EUR 47 500 million in 2018 prices for structural and cohesion programmes of the multiannual financial framework 2014-2020 as reinforced until 2022, including support through financial instruments; (ii) up to EUR 312 500 million in 2018 prices for a programme financing recovery and economic and social resilience via support to reforms and investments; (iii) up to EUR 1 900 million in 2018 prices for programmes related to civil protection; (iv) up to EUR 5 000 million in 2018 prices for programmes related to research and innovation, including support through financial instruments; (v) up to EUR 10 000 million in 2018 prices for programmes supporting territories in their transition towards a climate-neutral economy; (vi) up to EUR 7 500 million in 2018 prices for development in rural areas.
In addition, up to EUR 360 000 million in 2018 prices are to be allocated in loans to Member States for a programme financing recovery and economic and social resilience via support to reforms and investments and up to EUR 5 600 million in 2018 prices are to be allocated for provisioning for budgetary guarantees and related expenditure for programmes aiming at supporting investment operations in the field of Union internal policies.
The actions and measures will be carried out in accordance with the conditions laid down in the basic acts establishing the policy instruments. This is why the Commission presented in parallel the necessary legislative proposals ensuring that those policy instruments can receive external assigned revenues resulting from the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2020/2094.
3.   
Effect on the budget
Regulation (EU) 2020/2094 provides financial support from external assigned revenue from the Union’s borrowing authorised under Article 5 of Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 for non-repayable support, repayable support through financial instruments and for provisioning for budgetary guarantees and related expenditure. This entails the need to foresee commitment and payment appropriations to cover amounts falling due for the borrowing (for coupon payments and redemptions at maturity). No new net borrowing will take place after 2026. The repayment of the funds has been scheduled in accordance with the principle of sound financial management, so as to ensure the steady and predictable reduction of liabilities. All liabilities are scheduled to be fully repaid at the latest by 31 December 2058. The necessary appropriations foreseen in the MFF financial programming to cover potential coupon payments over the period 2021-2027 are compatible with the Multiannual Financial Framework, and in particular Heading 2 ‘Cohesion, Resilience and Values’ (excluding ‘Economic, Social and Territorial Cohesion’). Future Multiannual Financial Frameworks will need to provide the necessary appropriations to cover coupon payments and redemptions at maturity. Loans will be repaid by the beneficiary Member States and the Union will bear only contingent liability compatible with the specific own resources ceiling.
For the borrowing, the Union counts on its high credit rating to get favourable financial terms. To protect this rating, the Union has used the Union budget headroom as a guarantee, in accordance with Article 6 of Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053. The headroom is the difference between the maximum amount of revenue that the Union can raise for the Union budget and the actual spending from the Union budget. It therefore guarantees that the Union can always deliver on its commitments, no matter the circumstances. To guarantee the borrowing under NextGenerationEU, the Union has a headroom that is 0,6 percentage points higher than the standard one, for the period until 2058.
NOMENCLATURE CHANGES
Introduction to the nomenclature
The nomenclature for the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) 2021-2027, as decided following the adoption of the 2021 Union budget, allows for clearer, more informative and better aligned links between the MFF headings and programmes.
Since the 2021 Union budget and in line with the political agreement on the MFF 2021-2027, the budget nomenclature is structured by programme cluster (policy area) corresponding to the ‘purpose’ within the meaning of Article 47 of the Financial Regulation.
The first 15 titles correspond to the programme clusters within MFF headings 1 to 6 as presented in the MFF 2021-2027 proposals of May 2018 and 2020. Title 16 includes expenditure outside the annual ceilings set out in the MFF, mainly special instruments.
Within these first 16 titles, the structure in chapters has been harmonised as follows:
—
Chapter 01 groups the support expenditure financed from the envelopes of the programmes included in the title as requested by the Financial Regulation.
The support expenditure of each programme is classified in articles (and further broken down to item level where necessary) following the sequence of the operational chapters.
The operating subsidies of executive agencies charged to the envelopes of the programmes delegated to them are presented under standardised items allowing them to be easily identified across the whole nomenclature: XX 01 XX 7X.
—
Chapters 02 to 07 (number varying from one title to another) group the operational expenditure of the programmes included in the title, broken down in articles (and items) that correspond to the specific objectives defined in the sectoral legal bases;
—
Chapter 10 groups the Union contributions to the decentralised agencies included in the title;
—
Chapter 20 groups the following types of expenditure:
—
Article 01 includes the total expenditure of the pilot projects of the title;
—
Article 02 includes the total expenditure of the preparatory actions of the title;
—
Article 03 includes expenditure that is not part of a programme but for which a basic act exists;
—
Article 04 includes the expenditure relating to actions financed under the prerogatives of the Commission and specific powers conferred on the Commission.
Title 20 includes the administrative expenditure of the Commission and Title 21 the pensions (of former staff and members of all Union institutions) and the contributions to the European Schools. These two titles include the expenditure falling under the MFF heading 7 ‘European Public Administration’.
Finally, Title 30 constitutes the ‘provisions’ title foreseen in Article 49 of the Financial Regulation.
Two complementary nomenclatures
The main nomenclature of the Commission is complemented by two nomenclatures under Annexes 1 and 2 of this section:
—
in accordance with Article 65 of the Financial Regulation, Annex 1 sets out in further detail the expenditure of the six offices (O1 to O6). That annex follows a structure by office similar to Title 20 of the main nomenclature where the total expenditure of each office is entered into specific budget lines (under Chapter 3);
—
Annex 2 presents each individual ongoing pilot project and preparatory action with the following standardised structure:
—
a separate title is provided for the pilot projects ‘PP’ and for the preparatory actions ‘PA’;
—
within each of these two titles, chapters corresponding to the programme cluster from which pilot projects and preparatory actions are financed. The total expenditure by chapter in Annex 2 corresponds to the amounts of expenditure presented under Articles XX 20 01 and XX 20 02 of the main nomenclature for pilot projects and preparatory actions, respectively;
—
within each chapter, articles correspond to the budgetary year in which the pilot projects and preparatory actions were adopted.
Correspondence tables
The tables below present, for each of the three nomenclatures (Main – Pilot projects and preparatory actions – Offices), the correspondence at budget line level between the 2024 budget and the 2025 budget.

  Under the diversified funding strategy in view of the delinking of disbursements from the issuance of EU bonds, proceeds are allocated to a central funding pool before being allocated to relevant programmes including RRF loans, RRF grants, NextGenerationEU support to Union’s budget programmes and since January 2023 - MFA+ loans.
(
63
)
  The cost allocation methodology distinguishes three different cost categories: (i) cost of funding to finance grant and loan disbursements calculated for six-monthly time compartments, (ii) cost of holding and managing liquidity, and (iii) administrative costs. The interest costs related to NextGenerationEU-funded non-repayable support, such as RRF grants and top-ups to other programmes, are charged to the budget. Conversely, interest costs related to loans funded under the unified funding approach are charged to individual beneficiaries or guarantors per instalment.
(
64
)
  The own resources ceiling is the maximum amount of resources that the Commission can ask Member States to contribute in a given year. Currently, this ceiling stands at 1,4 % of EU gross national income (GNI). The available headroom under the own resources ceiling is the difference between this ceiling and the funds that the Union actually needs to cover the expenses foreseen by the Union budget in a given year.
(
65
)
  The common provisioning fund holds safety buffers for several funding programmes, such as the MFA to third countries. The fund is financed from the Union budget, within the expenditure ceiling of the MFF. As a general rule, for any lending to a third country, the Union budget contributes 9 % of the amount lent to the common provisioning fund. This contribution serves as coverage. Further guarantees may be added on top of this contribution in case additional protection is needed.
(
66
)
  To ensure the Union’s ability to repay the funds borrowed on capital markets or from financial institutions, Member States may provide guarantees for loans to Member States and to third countries with an increased credit risk. Such additional layers of protection are provided for in the basic acts by which the legislator authorises Union’s financial assistance programmes.
(
67
)
  Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 provides for a temporary increase of the own resources ceiling by 0,6 percentage points of EU GNI. Those 0,6 percentage points of the Union’s GNI are available for a limited time, and will only be used in the context of the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. This increase in the own resources ceiling will expire when all funds have been repaid and all liabilities associated with NextGenerationEU have ceased to exist.

  13 Member States have requested a loan ahead of the legal deadline of 31 August 2023. If these additional loan requests are positively assessed by the Commission and approved by the Council, around EUR 292,6 billion in current prices of loan support would be committed under the RRF, which is about 76 % of the EUR 385,8 billion in loan support that is available under the RRF. For more information, see Overview of Member States’ loan requests under the RRF (europa.eu).
