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 2023, the expenditure appropriations authorised by the budget totals EUR 186 616 684 928 in commitments and EUR 168 648 669 965 in payments, representing a variation rate of 2,4 % and of -0,8 % respectively by comparison with the 2022 budget (including amending budgets).

In accordance with Article 312 of the TFEU, the budget complies with the ceilings for the year 2023 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). 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. A small 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 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 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 168 648 669 965. The uniform rate of call for the VAT-based own resource is 0,30 % whilst that for the GNI resource is 0,6619 %. Traditional own resources account for 12,80 % of the financing of the 2023 budget. The VAT-based own resource accounts for 12,29 %, the plastic-based own resource accounts for 3,78 % and the GNI-based own resource for 63,97 %. Other revenue for the financial year 2023 is estimated at EUR 12 075 974 437.

Own resources needed to finance the 2023 budget account for 0,96 % 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 2023 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 2023 is 0,6619 %.

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 39 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’.

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).

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), 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

This article is intended to record capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted from the appropriations in Articles 05 02 99, 14 02 99 and 15 02 99 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’ to Mediterranean third countries.

It also records capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted to certain Mediterranean Member States which, however, represent a very small proportion of the overall amount. These loans and risk capitals were granted at a time when those countries had not yet joined the Union.

The revenue obtained normally exceeds the amounts forecast in the budget because of the interest payments on special loans which may still be disbursed during the preceding financial year as well as during the current financial year. The interest on special loans and risk capital is charged from the moment the loans are disbursed; interest on special loans is paid in six-monthly instalments and interest on risk capital generally in annual instalments.

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

Remarks

The Union’s guarantee is for borrowing and lending operations for third countries and for loans and other operations granted by financial establishments in third countries. This article also records the revenues stemming from previous external guarantees.

This article covers the External Action Guarantee, including the European Fund for Sustainable Development Plus (EFSD+), the European Union guarantee for the borrowing programmes contracted by the Union to provide macro-financial assistance to third countries and the guarantee for 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. It also covers the European Union guarantees for European Investment Bank loans to third countries and the guarantees for macro-financial assistance and Euratom loans granted under previous MFFs, as well as the European Union guarantee for the European Fund for Sustainable Development (EFSD).

This article is intended to record any revenue arising from the exercise of rights in connection with a guarantee under Item 14 20 03 02 of the statement of expenditure in this section provided that that revenue has not been deducted from expenditure.

Remarks

This article is intended to record capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted from the appropriations in Articles 05 02 99, 14 02 99 and 15 02 99 of the statement of expenditure in this section to Mediterranean third countries.

It also records capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted to certain Mediterranean Member States which, however, represent a very small proportion of the overall amount. These loans and risk capitals were granted when those countries had not yet joined the Union.

The revenue obtained normally exceeds the amounts forecast in the budget because of the interest payments on special loans which may still be disbursed during the preceding financial year as well as during the current financial year. The interest on special loans and risk capital is charged from the moment the loans are disbursed; interest on special loans is paid in six-monthly instalments and interest on risk capital generally in annual instalments.

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

This revenue results from the auctioning of the allowances and the unspent amounts from the previous NER300 fund in accordance with Article 10 and Article 10a(8) of Directive 2003/87/EC. The external assigned revenue becoming available on this item is intended to cover all expenditure related to the implementation tasks carried out by the Commission.

For financial year 2023, it is provisionally estimated that an amount of EUR 5,98 million will be needed in order to finance the contribution to the expenditure of the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency’s (CINEA) staff and administration incurred as a result of that Agency’s role in the management of the Innovation Fund financed from Item 16 01 02 74. Additionally, in 2023, the amount of EUR 7,88 million will be recovered to prepare financing of 2024 expenditure.

The appropriation from Article 16 01 02 will cover the administrative and management costs incurred in relation to the Innovation Fund implementation activities, in particular costs for external personnel in headquarters.

As regards the operational expenditure for financial year 2023 financed from Article 16 03 01, the calls for proposals for projects of EUR 3 100 million are planned to be launched during that year.

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.

Horizon Europe shall ensure the effective promotion of equal opportunities for all and the implementation of gender mainstreaming, including the integration of the gender dimension in R&I content.

Horizon Europe shall be implemented in synergy with other Union programmes while aiming for maximal administrative simplification.

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 5 412 000 000 in commitments.

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 policy-makers. 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.

Widening participation and strengthening the European Research Area

Remarks

The appropriations under this Article will support activities that contribute to attracting talent, fostering brain circulation and preventing brain drain, as well as a more knowledge-based and innovative and gender-equal Europe at the forefront of global competition and fostering transnational cooperation and thereby optimise national strengths and potential across the whole Europe. It will support a well-performing European Research Area, where knowledge and a highly skilled workforce circulate freely in a balanced manner, where the outcomes of R&I are widely disseminated to, as well as understood and trusted by, informed citizens, and where Union policy, notably R&I policy, is based on high quality scientific evidence.

It shall also support activities aimed at:

—improving the quality of proposals from legal entities from low R&I performing Member States, such as professional pre-proposal checks and advice,

—boosting the activities of national contact points to support international networking,

—activities aimed at supporting legal entities from low R&I performing Member States to join already selected collaborative projects.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to reduce disparities and the existing divide in research and innovation performance by sharing knowledge and expertise across the Union by helping widening countries and the Union’s outermost regions to attain a competitive position in the global value chains and the Union to fully benefit from R&I potential of all Member States. Further action, for example through the promotion of openness and diversity of project consortia, is therefore needed to counter the trend for closed collaborations, which can exclude large number of promising institutions and individuals, including newcomers, and to exploit the potential of the Union's talent pool by maximising and sharing the benefits of research and innovation across the Union.

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 actions focused on reinforcing Europe's capacities in high performance computing, artificial intelligence, 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 also 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 also consider the added value of combining digital with other enabling technologies in order to maximise benefits from digitisation.

Remarks

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%).

Remarks

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, as regards the national reference points in as much as 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 and cooling, and transport sector to territories facing serious socio-economic challenges deriving from the transition process towards a climate-neutral economy of the Union by 2050.

Remarks

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to contribute to the well-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 single market, competitiveness of enterprises, including small and medium-sized enterprises, and European statistics (the '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 policy-making, 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.

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 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 on-line 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 business, 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 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.

Remarks

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 SME’s 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 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, 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 eco-systems, 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 strengthening 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 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.

Remarks

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 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

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, worker's safety and working conditions and ageing population, thus positively contributing to the society as a whole.

European standardisation activities are governed by Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council 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.

Remarks

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 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.

New item

This appropriation is intended to cover the costs of the implementation of the carbon border adjustment mechanism (the ‘CBAM’).

The carbon border adjustment mechanism (the ‘CBAM’) is intended to address greenhouse gas emissions embedded in the goods covered by the proposed Regulation, upon their importation into the customs territory of the Union, in order to prevent the risk of carbon leakage. The CBAM will complement the system established for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Union by Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council by applying an equivalent set of rules to imports into the customs territory of the Union of goods covered by the proposed Regulation.

Reference acts

Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council, submitted by the Commission on 14 July 2021, establishing a carbon border adjustment mechanism (COM(2021) 564 final).

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, which should include projects of minorities.

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

The amounts indicated in the budget remarks of the relevant budget lines under this title provide information about the expected amount of budgetary commitments in 2023.

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 contributes through the Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) to 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 strand 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 case 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 Council 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 current 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 Advanced 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.

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 Network of Agencies, 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

This appropriation is intended to cover the cost of carrying out the Joint Harmonised EU Programme of Business and Consumer Surveys in the Member States and candidate countries. The programme was initiated by a Commission Decision in November 1961 and was modified through subsequent Council and Commission decisions. It was last approved by Commission Decision C(97) 2241 of 15 July 1997 and last presented in the Commission Communication C(2016) 6634 of 20 October 2016.

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,

—the assessment of transposition and application by the Member States of the Union fiscal governance framework supporting the functioning of the economic and monetary union (EMU),

—economic monitoring and analysis of economic policies,

—the external aspects of the EMU,

—economic developments in the euro area,

—monitoring structural reforms and improving the operation of markets in the EMU and in the Union,

—cooperation with economic operators and decision-makers in the abovementioned fields,

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 the national and regional level implemented in cooperation with the Commission’s Representations,

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

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

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

The 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.

Remarks

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, combatting 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 level in order to assist the design of appropriate policy measures,

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.

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.

Remarks

The Commission’s executive communication services are provided to the President and the College of Commissioners in support of the communication activities of the President, College, Spokesperson's Service and Commission senior management by ensuring political and economic intelligence and media advice, and by feeding high-quality country-specific information and analysis from a variety of sources into the Commission's decision making process. This leads, ultimately, to better informed Union policy making for citizens.

Corporate communication products and services are provided to the external communication service of the Commission and reflect its role as leader in this area, ensuring coherence in the Commission's messaging by aligning all Commission communication services to contribute to coherent and effective corporate communication on the political priorities. This leads, step by step, to the definition of clearer corporate messages and narratives, to distinctive visual branding and eventually brand recognition, and to economies of scale, thus contributing to achieving a better image for the Commission and the Union.

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on corporate communication actions, which includes costs for the production of content, provision of corporate technical services, dissemination of information through integrated communication actions, organisation of and participation in events, and studies and evaluations, where relevant.

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure incurred within the Union for online multimedia and written information and other communication tools concerning the Union, for the purpose of providing all citizens with general information on the work of the Union institutions, the decisions taken and the stages in the building of the Union. This is a public service task. Online and other communication tools make it possible to gather citizens’ questions or reactions on European topics. Those tools are made accessible to people with disabilities, in accordance with Web Accessibility Initiative guidelines.

The main tools concerned are:

—the Europa site, which constitutes the main point of access putting at the disposal of citizens information which they might need in their daily lives and which therefore must be clearly structured, made ever more user-friendly and optimised for mobile devices,

—online press releases, databases and other online communication information systems,

This appropriation is also intended to fund:

—the improvement of the Europa site to optimise the site for mobile devices, to focus it on user needs and to professionalise the use of other online channels like social media, blogs and web 2.0, including all types of training, coaching and consultancy services for various groups of stakeholders,

—the expenditure relating to hosting and licence costs associated with the Europa site,

—the costs of operation and maintenance of the Commission's social media presence including technical assistance, the purchase of licences for the necessary equipment and material,

—the exchange of best practices, knowledge transfer and professionalisation by financing visits of digital and other communication experts and practitioners,

—IT expenditure for development and maintenance of relevant information and management systems,

—the cost of subscriptions and access to online information sources such as press agencies, online news, information providers and external databases,

—the training and support required for accessing that information,

—evaluation and professionalisation expenditure.

This appropriation is intended to cover Eurobarometer and data analytics. This includes, 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 information facilities: staff and the purchase, hire, maintenance and repair of the necessary equipment and material (news coverage, audio-visual production, audio-visual media library 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 to 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,

—graphic design,

—IT expenditure for development and maintenance of relevant information and management systems,

—seminars and support for journalists.

This appropriation also covers horizontal expenditure on, inter alia, internal communication, studies, meetings, ex post controls, expert technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service contracts, evaluation on horizontal or cross-cutting activities and professionalisation activities, and the repayment of travel and related expenses for persons invited to follow the work of the Commission.

—IT expenditure for development and maintenance of relevant information and management systems,

—the exchange of best practices, knowledge transfer and professionalisation by financing visits of digital communication experts and practitioners,

—information, seminars and support for journalists,

The main types of tool concerned are:

—the internet sites, multimedia and written products of the Commission Representations in the Member States,

—online press releases, databases and other online communication information systems,

—complementary online channels in Commission Representations, such as local social media, blogs and other web 2.0 technologies,

This appropriation also covers the expenditure relating to the production for various target groups of (paper or digital) publications concerning the Union’s activities that are often distributed through a decentralised network, mainly:

—the publications of the Commission Representations,

—the dissemination (also through a decentralised network) of specific basic information on the Union (in all the official Union languages) for the general public, coordinated from headquarters, and promotion of the publications.

This appropriation covers also local outreach cooperation between Commission Representation and European Parliament Liaison Offices in the Member States. The Commission manages the expenditure of joint actions and in particular the cost of joint communication projects for the benefit of both the European Parliament and the Commission. The local outreach cooperation of the two institutions must be based on principles jointly agreed by the two institutions and on joint work programmes approved by both Heads of Commission Representations and Heads of European Parliament Liaison Offices.

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure for corporate communication actions, which includes costs for the production of content, provision of corporate technical services, dissemination of information through integrated communication actions, organisation of and participation in events, and studies and evaluations, where relevant.

This appropriation is intended to fund general information to citizens, mainly incurred at Commission headquarters in Brussels, and covers:

—ad hoc communication actions on a regional, national or international scale that fit in with the communication priorities,

—open door events for citizens from all walks of life,

—seminars and conferences as well as workshops with more specific target groups, such as young people, and applying participatory methods,

—organisation of or participation in European events, exhibitions and public relations activities, organisation of individual visits, etc.,

—direct communication actions targeting the general public (e.g. citizens’ advice services),

—direct communication measures targeting opinion multipliers, in particular stepped-up measures involving the regional daily press, which is a major information outlet for a large number of Union citizens,

—expenditure on issuing, in whatever medium, publications on matters of topical importance relating to Commission activities and the work of the Union, as well as the publications provided for in the Treaties and other institutional or reference publications, such as the General Report on the activities of the European Union published in accordance with Article 249(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union; the publications may be targeted at specific groups such as the teaching profession, young people, opinion leaders or the general public,

—the expenditure relating to the production for various target groups of written publications concerning the Union’s activities that are often distributed through a decentralised network,

—the dissemination (also through a decentralised network) of specific basic information on the Union (in all the official Union languages) for the general public, coordinated from headquarters, and promotion of the publications,

—the IT expenditure for development and maintenance of relevant information and management systems,

—evaluation and professionalisation expenditure.

Communication actions can be organised in partnership with the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee, the Committee of the Regions or the Member States in order to create synergies between these partners and to coordinate their information and communication activities on the Union.

This appropriation could furthermore serve to fund awareness raising and information activities on European Citizens’ Initiatives in cooperation with Commission Representations and local Europe Direct Centres in the Member States.

The appropriation is also intended to cover costs related to the promotion of information, consultation and participation of representatives of enterprises, in particular for the following activities:

—measures aimed at developing employee involvement in enterprises, meaning any mechanism, including information, consultation and participation, through which employees' representatives may exercise an influence on decisions to be taken within the enterprise, in particular by raising awareness and contributing to the application of Union law and policies in this area and the take-up and development of European Works Councils,

This appropriation is intended to cover actions contributing to an efficient management of migration flows in line with the relevant Union acquis and in compliance with the Union’s commitments on fundamental rights.

The AMIF will promote common measures in the area of asylum, including Member States’ efforts in receiving persons in need of international protection through resettlement and the transfer of applicants for or beneficiaries of international protection between Member States, supporting integration strategies and a more effective legal migration policy, so as to ensure the Union’s long-term competitiveness and the future of its social model and reduce incentives for irregular migration through a sustainable return and readmission policy. The AMIF will support the strengthening of cooperation with third countries to reinforce the management of flows of persons applying for asylum or other forms of international protection and avenues of legal migration and to counter irregular migration and ensure sustainability of return to and effective readmission in third countries.

Remarks

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover expenditure of an operational nature, such as cooperative projects, directly linked to the achievement of the objectives of the European Defence Fund (EDF) and its predecessor, the European Defence Industrial Development Programme (EDIDP).

In particular, appropriations under this chapter will support the development of actions – understood as the development phase of new products and technologies or the upgrading of existing ones – in the field of defence. The goal of both the EDF and EDIDP is to foster the competitiveness and innovativeness of the European defence technological and industrial base and reach a greater interoperability between Member States’ capabilities, thereby contributing to the Union’s strategic autonomy.

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 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.

This appropriation may also cover the expenditure linked to the work of independent experts appointed by the Commission to assist in the evaluation of proposals and to advise on or assist with the monitoring of the implementation of actions carried out. Furthermore, this appropriation may be used to fund the organisation of dissemination activities, matchmaking events and awareness-raising activities, in particular with a view to opening up supply chains to foster the cross-border participation of SMEs.

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/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.

In this case, Article 14 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 609/2014 of 26 May 2014 on the methods and procedure for making available the traditional, VAT and GNI-based own resources and on the measures to meet cash requirements (OJ L 168, 7.6.2014, p. 39) applies.

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.

Remarks

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.

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.

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. Particular 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.

Information and communication measures

Appropriations 2023Appropriations 2022Outturn 2021
150 000150 000238 299,54

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.

The overall objective of this pilot project is to create the first Union public database of human biology- based models and non-animal methods, providing open access to the scientific community with project evaluators and ethical review committees among others.

Roughly 10 million animals are used in procedures for research and testing across the Union each year and about 200 million worldwide. In 2017, the Commission’s Joint Research Centre - European Union Reference Laboratory for alternatives to animal testing (DG JRC EURL ECVAM) embarked on a series of studies to review available and emerging non-animal models (NAM) being used for research in seven disease areas: 1) respiratory tract diseases 2) breast cancer 3) immune-oncology 4) immunogenicity of advanced therapeutic medicinal products 5) neurodegenerative disorders, 6) cardiovascular diseases and 7) autoimmunity. In 2020, the two first studies (on respiratory tract diseases and breast cancer) were published while the others were expected to follow in 2021. In spite of this remarkable effort, this work is in danger of quickly becoming outdated, given that the rapid increase in knowledge is accompanied by a decrease in the useful lifespan of that knowledge. Therefore, the aim of this pilot project is to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) automated database that collects and structures the NAMs in use for biomedical research. NAMs correspond to in vitro methods based on human cells and engineered tissues or in silico approaches employing computer modelling and simulation. Using AI to mine the vast body of published literature enables the creation and maintenance of an up-to-date, state of the art knowledge source collating NAMs applied to biomedical research. Moreover, the AI approach will allow the development of a sustainable design and implementation of the platform, which can be easily maintained by a third party and further refine through a community based support.

By understanding and sharing information on successful NAMs in biomedical research, it is expected that the transition of the scientific community towards human biology-based methodologies will be encouraged, facilitated and potentially accelerated. In fact, the use of human biology-based models and methods is vital to improve the relevance of biomedical research, to enhance the likelihood that results will translate to patients and to accelerate the transfer of research results into clinical and public health practices.

The use of AI is vital for the automation and cost-effective retrieval of the huge amount of data which will be required to ensure that the knowledge remains updated and current. In fact, the application of AI has already proven its worth and is frequently used by Union institutions such as EFSA for the automation of evidence-based science.

Objectives:

Ultimately, this pilot project will result in the development of the first Union public database of human biology-based NAM for biomedical research. This will be achieved through the following:

—Combining the results of the existing seven studies from DG JRC EURL ECVAM to create an initial database.

—Applying these results to enable training of an AI-boosted algorithm that will further populate the database and ensure it is kept up-to-date.

—Designing further integrations to expand the database to include NAMs for other human diseases.

—Developing a user-friendly web interface to facilitate public searches of content and allow filtering for NAM for specific human diseases.

—Providing recommendations on how to successfully deploy this AI-boosted NAM database to the scientific community.

—Providing specific recommendations to ensure long term sustainability of the database to all stakeholders (scientific community at large as well as Member States and competent authorities responsible for project evaluation).

Data is power and it could be used to target the development of financial products respectful of gender equality and diversity, to ensure that the innovation ecosystem empowers women-led venture capitals, women entrepreneurs and women-led business teams.

Currently, the OECD, the Eurostat and the European Institute for Gender Equality collect data about several gender aspects, but they require a certain harmonisation in order to be instrumental in addressing the gender gap. The methodologies and metrics used should be brought together to create a more holistic view and be able to use additional data allowing monitoring and evaluation of progress and policies. In addition, more regular and improved analytical studies need to be conducted to ensure the relevance of collected data (the latest analytical studies - European Commission, 2014; OECD, 2014 - on female entrepreneurship are based on data from almost a decade ago).

Specifically, with regard to investment data, there are currently only limited sources of data and this leads to repeated citing of the same unverified data, without the proper check about the biases and the errors contained therein. Much of the existing data that is available does not even allow a breakdown by gender.

To gain better insight based on robust data from reliable sources, data on investment by women and in women-led companies should be collected more systematically, in a structured and unbiased manner. Public investment institutions (European Commission, EIC, EIB, EIF, national and regional investment banks and investment schemes) should ensure that these data are collected and made available (always according to the FAIR principles) for analysts and policy makers to use. By making their collection and disclosure a condition for benefitting from their instruments, the data can be collected structurally. These data not only allow monitoring of the phenomenon, they also feed into the investment policies and the development of targeted instruments.

Addressing the gender investment gap from the policy perspective requires several steps that must be supported by reliable and updated data. First, policymakers should be put in a position to identify, observe and acknowledge the problem; second, they should understand why this huge gap exists; third, they should design effective policies and instruments to reduce it; then they should be able to monitor the progresses constantly and evaluate the results in order to adjust, adapt or redesign policies.

The complexity of the issue requires a comprehensive mix of policies that jointly address the investment gap and create impact on the investment landscape. If we want to drive an effective and collective cultural change, these policies should range from education, skilling, reducing and removing barriers, to providing direct support and unbiased access to finance. In order to understand and monitor the impact, data that are currently split into large number of domains need to be brought together.

The project requires the Commission to:

—analyse the existing methodologies used by the different statistical bodies to collect data about investments in women-led ventures, aiming at creating better sources of data, develop ad hoc KPIs and perform statistics in VC and innovation ecosystems, with data breakdown on gender and diversity linked to hierarchy and performance;

—establish a comprehensive monitoring system of the way the investments which are supporting women-led ventures are made, with deal flows, ROI and performance data;

—establish new common methodologies to measure progress towards established goals and systematically monitor gender funding data in the different Union funding programmes;

—tracking & measuring the percentages of women-led businesses that EIF and EIB reach;

—create a new Union-wide repository for data and reports about investment by women and in women-led companies and venture capitals.

The aim of this pilot project is to setup an observatory that tracks Member States initiatives and investments on innovation procurement in the digital economy and that engages public buyers, policy makers and citizens across Europe to share good practices. Using public investments smartly to speed up the adoption of innovative solutions is crucial for successful digital, green economic recovery. Europe needs to step up its game to safeguard its global competitiveness. This project, as cooperation between the Parliament and the Commission, could help in raising political visibility and impetus across Member States to make this happen.

Greater political engagement with continued regular Union-wide monitoring can reinforce the impact of economic recovery plans. It can encourage Member States to set higher ambitions for modernising public services with more cutting-edge digital solutions, which creates simultaneously high value jobs, including for innovative startups and SMEs.

The objective of this pilot project is to develop and implement an organic system of dashboards and cockpits to allow policy makers and citizens to follow the implementation of the key Union budgetary policies linked to the Commission priorities and the implementation of the 2021- 2027 Multiannual Financial Framework.

The extensive use of analytics to monitor the implementation and execution of the Union budgetary policies is currently not exploiting the full potential that data can offer in this area. Monitoring and dashboarding is currently quite scattered by thematic areas or associated to specific actors and an overall detailed framework is still to be fully developed. The use of modern data management and business intelligence techniques offer the potential to exploit the wealth of data available in the Commission.

The project would cover the development of the data ecosystem and the associated solutions to provide easy-to-consult dashboards and cockpits (set of interrelated dashboards) for citizens and policy makers. The proposed activities will be integrated in the Union budgetary performance framework and will complement and foster the on-going initiatives of the Commission, of Parliament and of the Council in this area, such as thematic policy scoreboards, knowledge repositories and monitoring systems.

Thousands of Union-funded innovators developing innovations with market potential are being detected by the data-driven Innovation Radar initiative. A pilot project could meaningfully address the clearly visible opportunity to create a data-driven approach for building links between these communities via: (a) a digital platform; and, (b) targeted events (in person, virtual and hybrid). The Innovation Radar Bridge instrument can be linked directly with the European digital Innovation Hubs. This can lead to not only a measureable increase in interactions between these communities but also to growth in the injection of private growth capital into the commercial ventures of Union-funded innovators. This would build on the ‘European Startups’ pilot project that ends in Q1 2022.

A thriving and growing community of Union-funded innovators developing innovations that are ‘market ready’ is emerging from programmes managed by the Commission such as Horizon Europe, LIFE programme and the Digital Europe Programme (all of which use the Innovation Radar method to detect such innovative potential at early stages). However, many such innovators do not have strong natural links to European investors who are seeking investment opportunities in key areas relating to Digital, Deep tech, Blockchain and European Green Deal related breakthroughs. Moreover, there is a need to strengthen the links between these communities and policy makers (at Union, national and regional levels), given the strong contribution such innovations can make to key policy priorities such as climate change, COVID-19 recovery and the digital transition.

This pilot project aims to engage Union regions in the monitoring process of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Taking into consideration the importance of timely, granular, reliable, relevant and up-to-date data for the success of the 2030 Agenda, the pilot project will provide a framework for regional authorities to monitor the SDGs in their territory. It will support and enhance regional statistical capacities in the collection of data, the monitoring and evaluation process. The data collected and consequently their evaluation will be made available to national and Union authorities for the overall evaluation of the progress towards the achievement of the SDGs. In addition, the project will provide tailored training to regional authorities for the proper collection and analysis of data to ensure the quality. In order to increase local ownership and increase openness and transparency, the project will make all the data available to the public and will create a platform where citizens can contribute to the definition of the priorities as well as to the monitoring and evaluation process. The data at regional level will be crucial in identifying potential gaps and areas in which action needs to be stepped-up as well-as the underlying reasons of the lack of progress. Conversely, it will pinpoint which factors facilitate the progress towards specific goals. Finally, the project will initiate a dialogue among Union regions on good practices and actions for the implementation of the 2030 Agenda.

The proposed steps to take for the implementation of this pilot project:

1. Determination of the focus level - NUTS 2;

2. Call and selection of the Union regions that will take part in the pilot project - building on the experience gathered by the competent Commission’s DGs, the intention is to have a maximum of ten (10) regions/sub-national authorities participating in the pilot project, representative of different types, according to prior work on the SDG monitoring, geographic location, size, socio-economic conditions and statistical capacity;

3. Setting of the local SDG agenda - common priorities but also adapted to local characteristics;

4. Implementation strategy;

5. Determination of methodology and selection of appropriate indicators - intention to cover all goals and most of the 169 targets - particular importance will be given to indicators that so far have not been used at regional level - the set of indicators will differ between the regions to reflect the local characteristics and needs;

6. Initiation of the monitoring process;

7. Collection of data;

8. Analysis and evaluation;

9. Reporting of the findings and coordination among regions about the steps ahead;

10. Feeding data to national authorities, the Commission and communication to the public;

11. Identification of shortcomings in the data;

12. Modifications to enhance the data collection and analysis procedure as well as the quality;

13. Identification of gaps vis-a-vis the progress towards the SDGs;

14. Drawing up a new action plan to address the gaps.

Remarks

The lack of strong consumer behaviour and consumer empowerment aspects in promoting energy efficiency, especially at local levels, calls for new and innovative solutions, especially because habits are often deep rooted and there may be resistance to change.

Changing citizen’s behaviour in the everyday life is a major challenge that needs to be addressed locally in order to change the attitude of citizens toward a more reflexive and energy efficient behaviour.

To help municipalities and regions enhance strong consumer behaviour of its citizens, the creation of an "EU forum for boosting energy efficient behaviour" (the ‘Forum’) accessible for municipalities and regions in the Member States is proposed. The Forum should:

—offer a capacity-building programme through a train-the-trainer approach or similar guiding measures. The programme should be targeted towards local and regional actors in order for them to obtain, strengthen and maintain the necessary capabilities to carry out energy efficiency boosting activities, such as competitions, campaigns, art projects or nudging initiatives.

—provide general information and statistics and offer resources to carry out more specific impact assessments of projects, scientific advice and specific public campaigning expert advice.

—establish a knowledge-sharing platform for representatives from municipalities and regions to share information on citizen behaviour in their respective areas as well as share experience with concrete projects and awareness activities aimed at boosting strong consumer behaviour. The Forum shall actively animate peer exchanges, monitor and submit information on projects to the platform in order to pool efforts, generate economies of scale and promote convergence towards best practices across Europe.

The Forum shall set concrete aims and targets for the services provided.

Article 17 of Directive EU/2019/790 on Copyright in the Digital Single Market has introduced a series of requirements for Online Content Sharing Service Providers regarding their liability for making available copyright-protected content uploaded by their users. This same legal provision also requires that such cooperation between rights holders and platforms do not result in blocking the availability of works uploaded by users which do not infringe copyright or are not subject to copyright or related rights. As part of the transposition of Article 17 into national law, Member States such as Germany have elaborated on those requirements, for example on safeguards against blocking requests in respect of works in the public domain.

In order to ensure the correct application of this provision, it will be essential to easily identify works which are no longer protected by copyright (public domain works) or which can be used freely under open licences. This can be achieved by developing databases that can allow the identification and reference of Public Domain and openly licensed works. Such databases could have an added value by increasing opportunities for the re-use of public domain cultural heritage beyond the scope of Article 17, by making those works and their public domain status more readily available.

The Copyright DSM Directive contains rules to facilitate the use of content in the public domain (recital 3, article 14). While acknowledging the status of works of visual art in the public domain (article 14), the Directive also notes the differences between the national copyright laws governing the protection of the reproductions of these works which give rise to legal uncertainty and affect the cross-border dissemination of works of visual arts in the public domain (recital 53).

The purpose of this pilot project is to assess the opportunity of developing public repositories of Public Domain and openly licensed works would aim to enhance legal certainty for all types of works in the public domain or not subject to copyright protection.

Blockchain technology has become an integral part of industrial value chains. One of the most recent technological advancements is the exponential adoption across sectors of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) – a unique asset or units of data stored on a distributed ledger. The main characteristics of NFTs, namely authenticity, ownership, and transferability, render each NFT unique and irreplaceable – a one-of-a-kind piece of work with a unique digital identifier on the distributed ledger.

NFTs have use-cases across all industries: from digital identity protection (giving individuals full control over which information to share with whom) to the Internet of Things (as a device authenticator) and the creative industry (providing liquidity in auctions and in the art, music, fashion, and gaming sectors).

Since virtually anything that can be digitised can be turned into an NFT, NFTs can play a key role in the protection of Intellectual Property (IP) rights by providing inventors, researchers, and creators with a unique digital certificate of IP rights referenced in the distributed ledger.

The proposed European NFT Platform would pilot this use-case. It would explore the potential of NFTs and blockchain to function as an immutable record of ownership claims and allow the verification and authentication of ownership and licenses, the management of digital rights and copyright transfer, the identification of copyright infringement, and the avoidance of erroneous ownership claims. The project would identify the basic infrastructure, standards and protocols required for deploying and upscaling the use of NFTs and blockchain for IP protection in the Union, and their potential for encouraging innovation.

Pilot project — Missing Children Alert/safe mechanism for Ukraine: A platform supporting cross-border cooperation for protecting and resolving cases of Ukrainian children gone missing during the war

Remarks

Based on the data available on the 29 March 2022, more than 2 000 children from 1 481 families have been reported missing in Ukraine due to the war. Those numbers are growing by dozens on a daily basis, as the war continues. Providing answers to every family member who has reported a child as missing, from experience of other missing children organisations with war and disaster, may take many years and will include robust family tracing procedures for every unaccompanied Ukrainian child in Europe and every orphan of war as well cooperation with the International Committee on Missing Persons who will analyse unidentified remains.

Robust and fast procedures and tools for cross border cases management across Europe are essential given that people can move freely within the Union and EEA territory. Missing Children Europe - the European Federation for Missing and Sexually Exploited Children - is expecting the number of unaccompanied minors going missing in the Union to rapidly grow as the war continues, as more territories are being attacked, and more children become orphaned due to the war.

Under these severe circumstances, the Ukrainian organisation for missing children (a member of Missing Children Europe) struggles to support parents and children, with not access to their offices, and reliant on the use of only a mobile device, an e-mail account, and social media. The communication with neighbouring countries, like Poland or Romania, is difficult and information can be easily lost, misplaced or be prone to human error. In this crisis, the need for a case management system that can handle cross-border information on missing Ukrainian children is more than evident. Although missing children organisations have a number of tools and communication means available, these are limited to local cases, the vast majority of which are runaway teens. The 32 116000 hotlines, most of them members of Missing Children Europe, are missing a tool supporting cooperation and quick cross-border exchange of information on missing unaccompanied children via a common platform that values greatly the security and privacy of data.

The proposed Missing Children Tracker for Ukraine will leverage the power of technology to allow cross-border missing children cases be resolved, through organisation collaboration, as timely and efficiently as possible. This pilot action exploits the research findings and the technical know-how acquired from the EU-funded Horizon2020 research project "ChildRescue" (grant agreement No 780938), establishing the required functionalities and services that can cope with cross border cases in times of desperate need.

The proposed implementation will provide a secure web platform environment, built on top of the basic prototype developed in the framework of the aforementioned Horizon 2020 initiative, for covering specific needs identified by Missing Children Europe and its response organisation in Ukraine:

—reporting of missing Ukrainian children incidences and management of local and cross-border cases with the involvement of authorised organisations all around Europe;

—secure sharing of cross-border cases among organisations involved, given that a child missing from Ukraine can be anywhere in Europe (not always at its own will);

—transferring of existing database on cross-border cases to the unified platform;

—intelligent matching of Ukrainian missing children cases based on advanced Machine Learning techniques;

—seamless integration with www.missingchildrenukraine.eu website in 3 languages (EN, UA, RU), including the reporting form for (receiving) new cases and a function to post publicity appeals in the form of online posters on worrying cross border cases of missing children;

—the automatic creation of printed posters for publicity appeals.

Additionally, in the framework of the proposed pilot project, two more tools will be developed:

—private mobile applications (for Android and iOS) for easy access and control of the Missing Children Tracker platform by mobile device, providing to authorised users of the official response organisations, all around Europe, direct push notifications for incidents/ updates related to missing children cases which, based on information and/or the result of the intelligent matching algorithms of the platform, could be located in their countries.

—an intelligent bot (also based on A.I.) especially designed for social media through which new missing children cases could be reported by Ukrainian families. Facebook Messenger is currently the main method of communication used by Ukrainian citizens for getting in touch with the Ukrainian missing children response organisation. The whole process for reporting a case is based just on the exchange of messages, supported by a few volunteers who are experiencing difficulties to fully handle the tons of information regarding missing children cases received via Messenger. The scope of the bot is to automate the whole process for reporting a disappearance, to ask and get answers to specific questions in an intelligent manner and to create new cases in the database linked to any available evidences (pictures, legal documents etc), allowing the Ukrainian case managers to focus on managing the cases instead of entering and comparing data received through chat.

The proposed pilot will not only have an immediate positive impact on Ukrainian humanitarian crisis but can also set the basis for all missing children organisations under the umbrella of Missing Children Europe, to be prepared for any future multi-national emergency of similar size and nature. Moreover, the case management procedures and tools to be put in place for Ukrainian unaccompanied minors in the framework of the proposed pilot project, could easily in the future be extended to all unaccompanied minors missing in the Union as we know that over 18 000 minors went missing between 2018 and 2021 and more and more of them are also reported to the 116000 network (European Hotline for Missing Children) across Europe.

The results of this pilot can be of assistance in similar events for a great number of Member States, and for organisations searching for missing refugee children across Europe and also to connect and protect children or even women/mothers by alerting of their safe position/location periodically. There will be an added possibility for the app to be used as a mothers/women safe button.

1. This pilot project can build on the success of the Childrescue project, which runs a specific database of missing children cases (both active and past), keeping information and detailed data per case, as well as of an intelligent tool able to classify (based on the analysis of the available data of every active case and intelligent pattern matching with past cases taking advantage of Machine Learning models) the disappearance of a child, e.g. runaway/thrownaway, nonfamily abduction, family abduction, custodial interference, lost and involuntarily missing. The Childrescue platform can be customized, enhanced and upgraded to be up and running to handle the cases of missing children as a result of the war in Ukraine.

There are several components of the Childrescue project, that have proven extremely successful and that can be reused and readapted to cover the scope and objectives of the current proposal.

In short:

The Childrescue mobile app could easily be upgraded in order not only to send notifications but also to collect the required data for new cases and act as a safe and secure communication tool between people who report the disappearance, volunteer organisations in Ukraine supporting the initiative and response organisations of Missing Children Europe, both in Ukraine and neighbouring countries.

The Childrescue main platform could be enhanced in order to support cross-border collaboration, allowing information regarding Ukrainian missing children cases not only to be accessible but also to be further enriched by organisations in other countries (where the child could potentially be found) and by Missing Children Europe directly. This also applies to the unaccompanied child refugees database incorporated in the platform.

The Childrescue data management module can easily be customized in order to communicate and exchange information with a legacy platform of the Ukrainian missing children response organisation, as useful data for active and past cases could be retrieved by this platform.

The Childrescue AI/ML engine: The engine shall be enhanced towards two directions: (i) be able to match cases of minors found in different countries to missing children records, (ii) be able to identify patterns based on existing data and provide insights/ predict where each child that has crossed Ukrainian borders could be located (based on other children with similar characteristics already found).

2. Cooperation/interaction with other existing tools/initiatives at Union level

Based on the information provided by Missing Children Europe, the only existing operating tool, apart from Childrescue, which is related to the proposed project is a legacy CRM system managed by Missing Children Europe which the members of the organisation in other countries can access. However, the functionalities of the system are limited to those of entering some data for each case without having any of the features either of Childrescue or of the solution presented in the project proposal. In addition, as it’s not an open CRM system there is no capability to build on top of it. A bridge in order to get data from the CRM however is going to be implemented so that any already entered information could be accessible and available in the new platform. The lack of other tools is the reason that Missing Children Europe and the whole 116000 network consider that only by taking advantage of the Childrescue existing tools, a complete solution as described in the proposal could be developed in a quick and efficient manner as the war is still ongoing and the time is putting pressure.

3. Time sensitivity:

The technical partners who developed the Childrescue components have a solid knowledge of the features of the platform that must get upgraded, as well as experience gained through their participation in the Childrescue demonstrators. In order to develop new modules for covering the features described in the project proposal which are not directly based on Childrescue, the time needed for designing and implementing a first working version of the core part of the solution is no more than 2 months. This will encompass the involvement of the whole development team involved in Childrescue, as well as experts from Missing Children Europe providing consultation and advise for each individual feature characteristics.

One of Galileo’s specific functions is search and rescue. Search and rescue services are continuously being developed with the objective of assisting people in distress but its use needs to be extended in the Union given the current geopolitical situation. This can be done by benefiting from emerging technologies that lead to digital and safer processes. Advanced search and rescue operations will open new business opportunities, as well as new challenges, supporting the digitalisation, sustainability and resilience challenges of the Union.

The project shall be focused on:

—consolidation of concept of operations and positioning performance needs for search and rescue;

—identification of main challenges to be overcome to ensure safe operation and resilient positioning;

—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;

—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 safer solutions for EU fleets (both aircraft and vessels);

—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 search and rescue services. Equipment prototypes developed within this pilot project should be based, when available, on existing commercial off-the-shelf components;

—implementation of several demonstrations for commercial aircraft and fishing vessels. 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 aircraft and vessels in the demonstration shall be equipped at least with a beacon prototype with the capacity to be remotely activated using Galileo signals and the specific messages encoded;

—contribution to draft new standards defining 1) minimum operational requirements for a Search and Rescue 406MHz beacons in commercial aircraft (ELT-DT) and fishing vessels (EPIRBS) so that they can be remotely activated and 2) the necessary tests required to verify the performance compliance in support of future regulatory initiatives in Europe;

—attendance at existing working groups addressing solutions for search and rescue beacons, including different public/private platforms and interviewing key industrial stakeholders, such as aircraft operators, fishing vessels associations, shipping operators and relevant Maritime and aviation authorities for search and rescue;

—consolidation of the user requirements and definition of equipment (beacons) requirements.

Cospas-Sarsat, the international organisation for search and rescue is contributing to save approximately 2 000 people a year on average. The equipment used (406MHz Beacon) includes basic mandatory capabilities to transmit an alert message to satellites which re-transmit the information to the ground infrastructure. Galileo is already contributing by providing its satellites for message forwarding, namely the so-called forward link service. In the ground infrastructure, the location of the beacon is determined and Search and Rescue forces are activated.

An optional capability is currently provided by Galileo, with the primary objective of providing an acknowledgment receipt to the beacon activated, the so-called return link.

The possibility to have a communication channel from the Galileo infrastructure to any beacon in the world will enable new functionalities, and one of the most relevant ones is the possibility to remotely activate a beacon from the ground infrastructure when necessary.

Preliminary work has been done in the commercial aviation sector which resulted in the publication of a minimum aviation system performance standard (EUROCAE ED-277), describing the operational procedures to be put in place to enable this evolution. However, no minimum performance standard for the beacons is in place yet, that could be used to support a future regulation. In fact, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) providing the requirements for aircraft tracking explains that the remote beacon activation needs further development. The standard for Aircraft beacons (EUROCAE ED-62B) does not include the possibility for remote activation yet.

On the other hand, remote beacon activation is attracting the attention of the maritime community with special focus on the fishing vessel sector, which sees big benefits in protecting further the lives of fishermen.

EU Space Data from Galileo and EGNOS will be key enablers of this transformation, by facilitating reliable and robust positioning information needed for faster search and rescue activities. Galileo will provide 1) the communication channel to enable the activation of the beacon and 2) ranging signals to improve the accuracy of the position with respect to GPS, both enabling a faster and more accurate location of the person in distress. SBAS (EGNOS is Europe) will provide additional corrections to improve accuracy and integrity of interest to implement safely the rescue process, following the location of the distress e.g needed by helicopter emergency operations.

Entrepreneurship is one of the Union’s core values. Young entrepreneurs, forward-looking minds, and startuppers are the backbone and future of European innovation. The Young European Entrepreneur Award (YEEA) aims to become the EU's Acceleration and Investment Programme for young entrepreneurs from all over Europe, recognising and fostering existing innovators while providing skills development.

YEEA is envisioned as an annual project, supported by both the European Parliament and the European Commission, together with relevant networks, such as Business Angels Europe, the European Angels Fund, EBAN, EE-HUB, Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs, CEA-PME, EMEN and WEgate, amongst other stakeholders. Within the European Parliament, YEEA will be hosted and organised under the umbrella of EU40, the network of Young Members of the European Parliament.

The goal is to see 100 young entrepreneurs apply to the YEEA Acceleration and Investment Programme annually. YEEA will provide a ‘one-stop-shop’ to Union funds (European Commission, European Investment Bank, EU start-up fund) and private investors. In addition, the 10 best young entrepreneurs would benefit each year from tailor-made mentoring from renowned consultancies and/or companies, who would offer their knowledge as an in-kind contribution to the programme. YEEA would thereby constitute a sounding board for the voices of the young innovators and entrepreneurs.

The Young Members of the European Parliament will play a pivotal role in advertising the award and accelerator across Europe and within their constituencies to ensure that the public call to young entrepreneurs will be as widespread and accessible as possible. Young Members of the European Parliament will be champions of the initiative and its message, and play a crucial part in the communication, political marketing and development of the competition. The European Parliament could host an annual event (Investment Days) to promote and grant the award.

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

The objective of this pilot project is to analyse novel forms of contracting in the digital economy, such as contracts exclusively concluded through AI systems that operate autonomously without, or with hardly any, human intervention While these technologies are promising for both citizens, consumers and businesses, new solutions of AI-enabled contracting raise the question if national and Union private laws are adapted to those situations. Possible existing obstacles in national and Union private law to the (cross-border) use of novel forms of contracting need to be assessed. Potential contract law issues to be examined:

—the conclusion of a contract (under which conditions and to what extent are contracts, in which autonomous software agents are involved, binding for the parties);

—the consequences of errors/mistakes (who bears the responsibility of errors caused by an AI system) and questions on avoidance of contracts;

—information requirements imposed on the trader in consumer contracts.

The metaverse is the convergence of ideas that have been around for a few years now: virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and blockchain technology. The metaverse implies a network of virtual environments accessed via different devices where users can interact, socialise, work, play and consume in an immersive digital setting that mirrors many of our real-world habits.

While the Commission is pondering the regulation of the metaverse, the general knowledge of what this emerging technology entails is still very limited or beyond average comprehension for the society as a whole, and for Union policy-makers and civil servants in particular. Nonetheless, they have to legislate on this evolving digital world, among other areas, in regard to the respect of fundamental rights, data protection, privacy, as well as the level of responsibility of individuals when acting in the virtual sphere. What the metaverse is, how it operates, what VR experiences it may offer, what the potential implications of its use and the activities run in that environment are, etc., are questions which answers remain vague, at the very least, for the majority.

This pilot project will enable or create a metaverse space within a European institutions’ body with a determining legislative involvement to bring the phenomenon closer to the Union institutions, make it accessible to better understand the repercussions of this futuristic digital world, and to elevate its knowledge for better legislate about it, when the time comes.

The space for the metaverse at the Union institutions will be open for interactions to working groups, professionals, think tanks, technology experts, scientists, legal scholars, social psychologists, state regulators, and elected officials --and their reflections will contribute to elaborate an eventual regulatory framework on the phenomenon of the metaverse.

Modern smartphone, tablet and (increasingly) desktop environments have established marketplaces, such as Google Play Store or Apple App Store, for the installation and maintenance of apps. Those market places offer convenient and curated apps that come at the cost of high barrier to entry on the market for smaller providers and less choice for consumers. Recent antitrust cases (AT.40437 Apple - App Store Practices (music streaming)) have highlighted the problem with app stores, and the Commission has proposed the Digital Markets Acts Regulation in order to create more competition on the market. Despite the legislation and antitrust cases, Union institutions themselves don`t offer consumers free choice to use or move away from dominating marketplaces. For instance, all android apps released by the Commission, such as Events@EU, Eurostat and myregion, are only available in the Google Play store.

The pilot project is aimed at extending the Union technical infrastructure to release, maintain and promote Union applications without further strengthening the market position of gatekeeper app stores. The focus of the pilot project includes Union institutions releasing their apps on existing alternative app stores, including f-droid that aims at promoting apps released under open source licenses. It would also include releasing the source code of the apps for people to build the apps on their own and to release the apk files for side-loading without the use of an app store. That work is consistent with Commission decision C(2021)8759 on the open source licensing and reuse of Commission software and other overarching policy goals of Commission and Parliament.

Remarks

In the White Paper on Artificial Intelligence (AI) published in February 2020 by the European Commission, environmental sustainability is explicitly mentioned as a challenge for Europe's immediate future. This study seeks to align the European AI strategy and its actions with the European Green Deal, to make the EU one of the leading regions in the adoption of best practices in the development of sustainable AI models.

AI has a strong potential for environmental impact. On the positive side, AI and data analytics technologies have the potential to accelerate the analysis of large volumes of data, enabling better understanding of environmental challenges and providing solutions to them. This will provide mechanisms for improved environmental planning, decision-making and monitoring of environmental threats. Specifically, AI could help reduce energy and resource consumption, promote decarbonisation and boost the circular economy. Another interesting aspect is the use of AI to analyse the results of past scientific experiments and make future experiments more successful.

On the negative side, AI also poses a number of environmental threats. The use of ICT solutions accounts for 5-9% of electricity consumption worldwide, and could reach 20% by 2030, according to the European Parliament report "The role of Artificial Intelligence in the European Green Deal" . In practice, this represented between 1,1 and 1,3 billion tonnes (Gt) of CO2 in 2020. In addition, the ‘Ethics for sustainable AI adoption connecting AI and ESG’ study showed that the carbon emissions for training a single natural language processing model was equivalent to 125 round-trip flights between New York and Beijing . With specific reference to the use of AI, some scientific articles on its environmental impact differentiate between red AI, or energy-intensive AI, and green AI, designed following energy efficiency parameters. By way of illustration, it is worth noting that the computing resources needed to train AI models have been doubling every 3.4 months since 2012, as more accurate models are sought. The factors driving this increase in consumption can be summarised in three: the cost of running an AI model in isolation, the size of the training dataset and the number of hyperparameter experiments performed.

The Coordinated Plan on Artificial Intelligence review 2021 focus area ‘Bring AI into play for climate and environment’ includes actions aiming at advancing greener AI. These actions include supporting research on reducing the energy consumption of AI through the Horizon Europe programme; and developing low-power processors for AI applications through Horizon Europe and the institutionalised European Partnership on Key Digital Technologies. However, the Coordinated Plan does not focus on incentivising developers to use green AI.

In this context, this pilot project aims to carry out a study to define elements to incentivise AI developers to change from energy-intensive AI towards environmentally sustainable AI -green AI-, promoting procedures for better efficiency and indicating the carbon footprint of an AI system, including the exploration of an ‘energy efficiency and carbon intensity marking’ and a ‘green AI label’. This way, this study will contribute forming the bulk of the activities needed for the greening of AI so that it can serve as a basis for a potential European green algorithms programme or for any green AI legislation that may be considered in the future. The proposal for an Artificial Intelligence Act does not include any incentives or obligations to calculate and simulate the environmental impact of AI systems, so this study would not be overlapping any current action, programme or existing law.

Implementation

The main activities of the study would focus on the identification and further development of non-technological solutions to mitigate the environmental impact arising from the use of AI solutions, such as the development of best practice procedures, tools and the knowledge base necessary to meet this challenge.

Specifically, as the energy consumption and carbon intensity of AI systems is emerging as the main environmental problem, the following activities are envisage in order to incentivise developers/providers to change:

—the identification of best practices and the generation of a repository that includes examples of energy efficient design and application that can serve as good practices for businesses.

—based on this, the development of guidelines and a methodology for efficient algorithms, which includes best identified data and pre-trained models from the point of view of the rationalisation of the training activity. The objective is to identify models that reduce energy consumption by balancing the volume of data needed to train a model, the amount of time to train it and the number of iterations to optimise its parameters, reducing its carbon intensity. Given the fact that currently there is no methodology to calculate and simulate the environmental impact of AI systems or algorithms, this study would set the groundwork for its development and to encourage its rollout.

—the development of an ‘energy efficiency and carbon intensity marking’ for AI systems, this is, a marking by which a developer/provider can indicate the carbon footprint of an AI system calculated by estimating the power consumption of the algorithms training and execution, including the disclosure of information about the energy source and the use of renewable energies. This marking would need the definition of minimum standards and an efficiency scale, as well as a methodology and procedure for the disclosure of the information.

—based on the ‘energy efficiency and carbon intensity marking’, the development of a ‘green AI label’, namely a label by which the less carbon intensive and most energy efficient AI systems are recognised and that promotes the techniques and procedures used for a better efficiency.

—the identification of other incentivising solutions as the definition of indicators to measure the level of sustainability of AI and the use of sustainability as an assessment criterion in public procurement.

—the design and implementation of a dissemination campaign to highlight the results obtained with the study, which will serve to raise awareness of the potential of the use of green AI as a vector for environmental sustainability.

The Internet delivers growth and innovation at unprecedented speeds. But it is mostly forgotten that one of its original architectural principles was interoperability. Services like the Web and email are based on interoperability. However, today, services of a diverse and decentralised system with open standards have been replaced by ‘walled gardens’ with locked-in users by a small number of companies, especially messenger and social media services. This pilot project could serve as a first step to address this market dominance and thus contribute to reach a level playing field in the digital sector in support for European SMEs. The aim of this pilot project would be to map out options for interoperability, advantages, challenges and potential technical solutions for messenger and social media services as a first step towards the development of open interoperability standards. The Digital Markets Act already addresses interoperability for number-independent interpersonal communications services in Article 7 and requests the Commission to evaluate if the scope should be extended to online social networking services. This pilot project could contribute to such an evaluation and therefore, could create more competition where compatible services and products could plug into systems surrounded by "walled gardens" and thus enable more companies to compete with digital gatekeepers. Therefore, it would contribute to European alternatives, European strategic autonomy and foster European digital sovereignty. In order for those tools to be successful, a central element would be to guarantee a high level of data protection, transparency and user choice.

Remarks

The aim of this pilot project is to promote European leadership and autonomy in fuel standards for aviation. Currently, the Union sets fuel standards for various transport modes for safety and sustainability reasons, but this is not the case in the aviation sector. This presents challenges in terms of securing and promoting Union interests including in technological leadership and sustainability, as well as avoiding bottlenecks in certification and ensuring the public interest is maintained.

In order to comply with the European Green Deal and the targets established in the European Climate Law, also within the transport sector in general and aviation in particular, constant evolution is needed towards reducing the climate and environmental impact of existing and future jet fuels. Indeed, its composition will have a direct translation in the amount of CO2 emissions per passenger per kilometre, but actually also on the non-CO2 emissions, whose climate impact is estimated by EASA to be as much to twice that of CO2 emissions alone. While SAFs and more particularly synthetic fuels will help reducing CO2 emissions by increasingly replacing conventional fuel, it is still foreseen within the ReFuelEU aviation regulation proposal that for many years ahead the fossil jet fuel will retain the biggest share within the aviation fuel blend. And it is precisely the presence of aromatics and sulphur in kerosene that causes non-CO2 impacts, and which need to be addressed urgently.

One of the constraints experienced in this venture is the fact that the current standardisation process for jet fuel takes place almost exclusively within ASTM International, a US-based private organisation enjoying a near monopolistic position. This current status quo risks eventually delaying and hindering the rapid development and uptake of potential innovation opportunities in jet fuel composition, including safety, minimising non-CO2 effects, pollution and CO2 emissions, which are expected to take place in the upcoming years. The Union needs to be fully prepared to have its own autonomy in this domain, as it is the case in many other sectors, to be able to be an early-mover. The UK also has a standardisation body for aviation fuels, which leave the Union alone in this regard, thereby undermining its autonomy.

Therefore, in view of the changes envisaged in the area of jet fuel, including the further requirements certification of SAFs derived from the ReFuel aviation, and given the need to foster innovation in the zero-emissions and zero-pollution front, it is important to ensure the Union’s strategic autonomy. This pilot project would be a first step in enabling a useful tool that provides the necessary structures for the Union to decide on standards and criteria regarding aviation fuels and blending qualities. A particular aspect would be to finally advance in lowering the minimum thresholds for aromatics and sulphur, fostering the evolution in engine technologies and to pave the way jets to operate with a 100% SAF composition of fuels.

Given the relevant safety implications for the aviation sector, it would be good to have this pilot project to explore the possibilities and requirements for a Union-based entity, and in this sense to identify which role EASA could play in this process.

Finally, it seems evident that this proposed pilot project supports various Union objectives, including that of strategic autonomy, technological leadership, the goals of the Paris Agreement, the European Green Deal, the European Climate Law, the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy, the EASA Sustainable Aviation Programme, the ReFuelEU aviation regulation proposal which is expected to be adopted in the coming months, and various other aviation and industrial policies. Moreover, it could easily seek collaboration with international aviation bodies and initiatives to ensure consistency and harmonisation at international level, without jeopardising international aviation, all while promoting greater safety and sustainability objectives.

Remarks

The predatory military Russian invasion launched in February 2022 against the sovereign state of Ukraine is not only a blatant attack on the rule of law and democracy but also a reminder that the Union needs to invest in its strategic autonomy. As long as the Union does not have a resilient energy system, which can sufficiently ensure security of supply, it will remain vulnerable to geopolitical pressures through weaponised energy exports.

Nuclear energy is sufficiently recognised as a secure, reliable and decarbonised source of energy. There is therefore potential for an increased role of nuclear in our energy mix as a decarbonised energy source that can drastically reduce our need for imports and hence strengthen the Union’s strategic autonomy.

The technical assessment of nuclear energy carried out by the Joint Research Centre in 2021 confirmed the broad technical and scientific consensus around deep geological formations as an appropriate, safe and feasible way to dispose of radioactive waste for very long time scales. Furthermore, the current storage procedures for spent nuclear fuel and other easily dispersible intermediate- and high-level waste types were not intended to be sustainable in the long run.

Additionally, the draft complementary delegated act on the inclusion of nuclear energy to the taxonomy, as proposed by the Commission, states that Member States need to have ‘a plan with detailed steps to have in operation, by 2050, a disposal facility for high-level radioactive waste’.

The current legal framework on nuclear waste management and shipment has it’s basis in the EURATOM treaty and is further developed through both the nuclear waste directive (2011/70/EURATOM) and the radioactive waste shipment directive (2006/117/EURATOM). As it stands now, radioactive waste is a national issue and its disposal is a competence that lies exclusively within each of the Member States. More specifically, Directive 2011/70/Euratom requires Member States to establish and maintain a national legislative, regulatory and organisational framework (Article 5) which includes the adoption of a national programme for the management of spent fuel and radioactive waste, covering all types of spent fuel and radioactive waste under its jurisdiction and all stages of spent fuel and radioactive waste management from generation to disposal (Article 11).

The shipments of radioactive waste towards a common disposal facility at Union level would be subject to the rules set out in Chapter 2 of Directive 2006/117/Euratom, which deals with ‘intra-community shipments’. It must also be stressed that the Commission has set up an expert group on financial aspects of the nuclear back-end, including deep geological disposal facility, to support the Commission in assessing costing, financing and funding elements of such facilities. Activities under that expert group work programme should be seen as complementary to some of the activities proposed under this project.

While disposing of radioactive waste in another Member State is allowed, the Directive 2011/70/Euratom, Article 4(1) sets out that each Member State shall have ultimate responsibility for management of the spent fuel and radioactive waste generated in it. The possibility of disposing of radioactive waste in another Member State is regulated by Article 4(4) of Directive 2011/70/Euratom, which reads as follows: ‘Radioactive waste shall be disposed of in the Member State in which it was generated, unless at the time of shipment an agreement […] has entered into force between the Member State concerned and another Member State […] to use a disposal facility in one of them’. Such agreement(s) should then be included in the national programme, as stipulated in Article 12(1)(k), according to which: ‘The national programmes […] shall include: […] (k) if any, the agreement(s) concluded’.

At the same time, Member States are encouraged to plan long-term and include deep geological nuclear waste repositories in their respective national plans.

As of today, no country worldwide has a deep geological repository for spent nuclear fuel in operation. Currently, only Finland is constructing one and only Sweden and France have realistic plans for deep geological waste repositories to be available in the early 2030's. The rest of the Member States have no such concepts yet thus their possible future projects would still take decades to be operational. The French design plans however only take into account disposal capabilities for whatever French radioactive waste is in existence or planned as of today.

While nuclear energy plants are the most obvious, they are certainly not the only source of radioactive waste. Industry, hospitals and medical devises, research centres and universities, they all produce radioactive waste. All Member States, regardless of whether they have nuclear energy in their energy mix or not, produces and has to deal with some type of radioactive waste. We believe that the enormous financial and engineering efforts required, in addition to the extremely long construction periods, make the duplicity of various deep geological repositories scattered across the Union seem extremely inefficient.

Therefore, we suggest launching, in cooperation with DG ENER, a pilot project (PP) and, if successful, a possible continuation through a preparatory action (PA). Said process could take the form of a feasibility study on a deep geological nuclear waste repository of common European use carried out by, for example but not limited to, the ‘Implementing Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste Technology Platform’: knowledge created by the (IGD-TP) will be of high relevance.

The aim of such a study would be to enable policymakers to assess, data in hand, whether technically, financially and in terms of overall efficiency, pooling European resources together to deal with radioactive waste makes sense and determine if a review of current legislation to enable such a joint European approach to radioactive waste management would be required.

The primary focus should lie on the required enabling actions, in particular a common radioactive waste classification system in the Union, followed by defining allocation of responsibilities, ownership/title and financial liabilities between the waste generators, waste management organisations (where relevant) and the Member States participating in a regional deep geological repository project. Nuclear safeguards should be considered early in the analysis along with the safety and security aspects.

The Parliament is currently working on the Commission legislative proposals on crypto assets and the Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) pilot to create a new regulatory framework for these new types of assets which hold a lot of promise to unlock new sources of financing for SMEs and give consumers additional choice and opportunities. In that context, the challenges of regulating and supervising the next wave of DLT based technologies, decentralised finance (Defi), have been raised, as these applications often do not have an identifiable issuer. However, this could potentially be addressed by so called embedded supervision (see Raphael Auer, Embedded supervision: how to build regulation into blockchain finance, BIS Working Papers | No 811 | 16 September 2019). In order to inform and prepare the application of the new legislative instruments to decentralised finance, the purpose of this pilot project is to test develop an experimental pilot project for technical solution to allow supervisors to engage embedded supervision of Defi applications by directly linking supervisory data applications to Defi applications. The pilot project will be implemented by the Commission in close cooperation with the European Forum of Innovation Facilitators, which brings together supervisory sandboxes and innovation hubs from all Member States.

Ecotourism involves participation in the conservation of the natural areas visited, providing constructive ways for good management and conservation of these natural areas. It offers opportunities for nature experiences that provide a better understanding of this environment and the opportunity to discover and protect nature, culture and local traditions by tourists. Ecotourism and traditional handicraft products attract those tourists who want to interact with the natural environment and broaden their level of knowledge, understanding of local values.

Information campaigns should encourage tourists to take into account the importance of ecotourism, environment, water and forests and celebrate operators with best planning methods in terms of nature conservation and protection as well as sustainable development.

In order to support the further development of European ecotourism, to make European rural areas more attractive to tourists, such campaigns need to be financially supported.

Within Europe, a broad framework of rules applies to commercial road transport. These rules concern minimum social, market and technical standards to be complied with by drivers, operators, vehicles and cargo.

Effective and efficient enforcement of these Union rules is crucial for improving road safety for all road users, ensuring adequate working conditions for those who earn their living carrying goods or passengers and safeguarding fair business conditions for those who invest in establishing a road transport company.

However, due to the ever-increasing cross border nature of transport operations, traditional enforcement came to its limits and is now broadly conceived as insufficient, burdensome and costly for the whole sector. Carriers and drivers lose money and business opportunities due to lengthy, random and unnecessary controls while enforcement authorities are facing insufficient human and financial resources to effectively control compliance with the complex framework of rules. In addition, the difficult access to data related to drivers, operators, vehicles and cargo leads to even more constrains for enforcement authorities.

The COVID-19 pandemic additionally showed the shortcomings of traditional enforcement based on physical controls and paper documents. The existing cross border enforcement tools in road transport allowing for electronic exchange of data for control purposes, such as ERRU, RESPER, TACHOnet have their own limitations and consequently they fall short of providing substantial efficiency gains and relief for authorities, operators and drivers alike.

In addition, the introduction of new provisions under Mobility Package 1 extends the scope of necessary controls thus requiring even more efforts from enforcement authorities. Future improvements of the smart tachograph and the equipment of control officers with remote detection devices to communicate with the tachograph while the vehicle is in motion is the first step. Furthermore harmonising risk-rating systems and enabling electronic exchange of documents on posting of drivers via IMI system as well as incorporation of the recently adopted eFTI regulation will be important next steps towards improving the effectiveness of road enforcement.

However, these systems and tools are insufficient to bring significant gains in simplification and efficiency of controls. In addition they are being deployed unconnectedly, which does not guarantee synergy effects.

Therefore, the necessity to create a connected modern road transport enforcement system is undisputed. Especially targeted risk-based controls, contactless and paperless inspections based on access to real-time digital data on drivers, operators, vehicles and cargo needs to become a reality across Europe. This would make controls less burdensome, less time consuming, less costly and more efficient.

The first step to create such a SEDEA (Single European Digital Enforcement Area), requires in-depth testing on the ground in order to draw the right conclusions on how to gradually replace traditional random physical controls at the roadside and at the premises with digital and targeted ones. This particular pilot project aims to provide the necessary data, which would allow the Commission to come up with sound strategy on digital enforcement in the future.

Scope:

The digital enforcement pilot project will cover the compliance with Union rules in three dimensions: human (drivers and operators), vehicle and freight. It will cover the controls of driving and rest time rules, posting, cabotage, all kind of licenses such as community license, driving license, driver’s attestation, tachograph cards, roadworthiness test of vehicles, weights and dimensions, with the aim to gradually give controllers an access to this comprehensive set of data in real time. The ultimate goal is to provide solutions for replacing physical controls at the roadside and at the premises of road transport undertakings by remote/automated controls without stopping the vehicle and/or visiting the premises of the undertaking.

Geographical area:

The large share of international transport on particular stretches of the SCAN-MED Corridor makes the problem of conventional roadside controls for hauliers and enforcement authorities visible. Consequently, the digitalisation of transport documents and data exchange systems between Member States are both in the interest of hauliers and of the responsible enforcement authorities and therefore comparatively well advanced on the SCAN-MED Corridor. In addition, the Austrian stretch is almost completely upgraded with ITS-G5. The pilot project will be looked upon favourably by the industry and the enforcement authorities, both of which are supported by the already existing ITS G5 infrastructure.

In 2016, the Court of Justice of the European Union clarified in its VOB decision (C-174/15) that the lending of e-books is permitted under the public lending exception enshrined in Directive 2006/115/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 December 2006 on rental right and lending right and on certain rights related to copyright in the field of intellectual property (OJ L 376, 27.12.2006, p. 28), but practical problems prevent libraries in Europe from using this exception. This pilot project will look at what practical improvements are needed in order to allow libraries to genuinely benefit from the public lending exception for e-books in practice. Whereas Member States had to transpose the Directive (EU) 2019/790 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on copyright and related rights in the Digital Single Market and amending Directives 96/9/EC and 2001/29/EC (OJ L 130, 17.5.2019, p. 92) by June 2021, mapping the national measures aiming at facilitating distance access to the libraries collections will help in systemising the harmonisation of Union copyright rules.

Directive (EU) 2019/790 has introduced a Union-wide exception that allows libraries to digitise their collections, but not to make them available online. According to Directive 2001/29/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 on the harmonisation of certain aspects of copyright and related rights in the information society (OJ L 167, 22.6.2001, p. 10), Member States can introduce exceptions that allow libraries to make available their digital collections through dedicated terminals on the premises of the institutions, not online. The pilot project will be based on one or more studies to assess whether national measures implementing Union copyright rules duly achieve the objectives of facilitating public access to culture and education while respecting rightsholders’ interests, and whether these measures could be adjusted, either through additional national measures or by some targeted changes in the Union legal framework, so that Member States have more flexibility to address efficiently the needs to access libraries digital collections.

Digital learning and collaborative work solutions have become central for schools and universities. The pilot project could further assess what copyright issues have arisen in the context of education & research at a distance, notably in the light of the recent Union and national case-law, and what legal and technical solutions could be found to address the growing needs in the field of distance education and research.

Pilot project — Building Capacity for the Tourism Ecosystem - Accessing Union Funding

Remarks

The tourism ecosystem is 99,9% represented by SMEs and other small stakeholders. The proportion of micro and small companies is particularly high in hotels, bars and restaurants, with many owners operating independently or under franchise from large groups. A common challenge raised by the Tourism Community during different Tourism Task Force meetings in the TRAN Committee is accessing to Union funding. The majority of tourism stakeholders believe in the importance of creating a proper Tourism budget line, but until this becomes a reality, the tourism ecosystem has to learn how to accessing 14 different programmes currently under way in the multiannual framework.

The recently released Guide on Union funding for tourism has aims to support the tourism ecosystem to find opportunities. The question is how can the Union build capacity for the Tourism Community and other parts of the tourism ecosystem to access those different calls? This is the last step to empower micro and SMEs, and the Tourism Ecosystem to be aware and access the available Union funding, finding partnerships and consortia, best practices and other tools.

According to findings in the EU special report entitled EU Support to Tourism - Need for a fresh strategic orientation and a better funding approach, from the Court of Auditors, during the last multiannual financial framework the Commission’s actions in supporting the Union tourism ecosystem were partially effective.

The transition pathway for tourism also highlighted the need to facilitate access to Union funding, the need to build up capacity, support through technical assistance and funding to meet these demands.

Bearing that in mind, this pilot project intends to:

—ease the access to Union funding for Tourism enterprises and the Tourism Community in general by mapping the difficulties and creating the appropriate tools to increase the share of tourism and travel ecosystem on total using of funds, complementing the existent database of Union-funded projects;

—analyse which programmes of the guide are suitable for implementing targets of the Tourism Transition pathways depending on profile of stakeholders and maturity of project ideas;

—highlight good practices of tourism projects funded by Union funding;

—capitalise successful and unsuccessful projects: stimulate transferring and avoid duplication;

—connect enterprises and the Tourism Community for strengthening existing networks and them with contact points that can help them;

—develop guidelines for companies and other parts of Tourism Ecosystem in how to apply successfully to Union funding programmes, connecting with existing structures;

—monitor with the programme managing authorities which projects were awarded and how implementation goes.

The objectives of this proposal are in line with the SME Strategy, the update Industrial Strategy and the report on establishing a Union strategy for sustainable tourism. They intend to represent more help to SMEs and other actors in Tourism Ecosystem to access Union funds, clarifying some complex aspects.

The information provided by this proposal will be a significant added value to be used by institutional information amplifiers to maximise the outreach across the entire Union.

Remarks

The Commission should establish a European network of gender-conscious investors. Such network should raise awareness and prevent the gender investment gap by inviting European public as well as private investors and financial institutions to commit to certain diversity goals voluntary such as implementing gender equality, diversity and inclusion policies as well as measuring and tracking gender representation and publish the data annually.

A gender-conscious investor network at Union level can at the same time focus on and be able to help break down the many barriers that exist between industries with either a very high percentage or a very low percentage of women. This is particularly the case with regard to investor and finance positions where women are underrepresented, which is a challenge for the entrepreneurial ecosystem because several studies show that investment managers tend to provide capital and to hire those who are similar to themselves.

The network shall inspire, increase knowledge of facts and enable the sharing of best practices regarding preventing and closing the gender investment gap as well as provide women-led companies with relevant connections, networks and funding opportunities in collaboration with other networks such as WEgate.

Through raising awareness and promoting increased participation of women in the investment decision-making, it will also contribute to achieving the gender diversity target set up under InvestEU (at least 25% of funds supported by InvestEU should have women in decision making).

Moreover, it can contribute to make it easier for women entrepreneurs to find the right investors who target women's and diverse teams' business ideas, which would create additional value through cross-border and cross-industry relations and initiatives.

This pilot project will encourage the green and blue recovery in the Atlantic by creating a precursor of a cooperation scheme at transatlantic level to foster exchanges of best practices and joint projects on the green recovery of maritime sectors important to Atlantic coastal regions, including outermost regions and non-Union regions. This pilot project is strongly innovative as it will go beyond the traditional INTERREG EA projects, which only connect Atlantic Union regions. It will include Union Atlantic outermost and non-Union regions and thus promote the European Green Deal beyond Union borders. Besides, it will go beyond the Galway and Belém Statements on Cooperation on Research as it will be a tool to improve regional development strategies such as regional investment in green marine leisure infrastructure and innovation policies to adapt to and mitigate climate change, which are key challenges identified in Atlantic RIS3 and the Atlantic Strategy Action Plan 2.0.

Developing a transatlantic cooperation will produce the following outcomes:

—improving policy making at regional level;

—internationalisation of SMEs of the Atlantic area;

—upskilling and reskilling stakeholders active in the key Atlantic sectors;

—enhancing the territorial cohesion of the Atlantic Area and the appropriation of the European Green Deal and Atlantic Strategy principles by Union and non-Union regional and local authorities.

To achieve this goal, the pilot project will support:

—Three trans-sectorial and transatlantic workshops online with the aim to generate knowledge, exchange practices on how to enhance the sustainable development of the sector across the Atlantic. It will foster cross-fertilisation of existing projects, will enhance a dialogue between the four pillars of the Atlantic Strategy and will reflect on transversal topics such as SMEs development and youth entrepreneurs.

—Three study visits and three capacity-building trainings directed towards regional administrations, wishing to develop their skills and strengthen their cooperation at a transatlantic level. The capacity-building exercise will derive from the challenges identified in the workshops and will be a privileged tool for administration to enhance their transatlantic cooperation.

—The development of a database of contacts at a transatlantic level to foster dialogue and best practice exchanges.

—Key capitalisation activities such as the development of a catalogue of best practices compiling innovations identified in the workshops and study visits, the development of a roadmap on the transatlantic cooperation to foster sustainable development of Atlantic coastal territories, and other actions helping the transfer of best practices outside the consortium and enabling cross-fertilisation and capitalisation with current projects.

Such strategic actions for the Atlantic could only be developed if the area key players are involved as a network of regional authorities and key technical partners. Regional authorities have strong links with the clusters and SMEs operating in their territories. They also have developed links at a transatlantic level, which will be able to be mobilised quickly and will provide the pilot project with a network of stakeholders from the other side of the Atlantic.

Pilot project — An innovative and comprehensive concept of urban biodiversity development for local governments in Europe - Restoration of the urban water ecosystem of the City of Łódź

Remarks

About 20 rivers and streams flow through the City of Łódź (Poland), but they are mostly hidden in underground channels. For several years, the city authorities have been taking steps to restore and bring them to the surface, and one of these ambitious projects concerns the Lamus River, which flows through historic parks established in the 19th century as palace gardens of Łódź factory owners, founders of the Łódź "Promised Land".

The pilot project will consist of restoring the Lamus River, removing it from the sewage system and exposing it in space as well as using rainwater and snowmelt from nearby properties and roofs to supply the Lamus River. In addition, it is planned to irrigate the greenery in the parks and directing rainwater to the valley of the Jasień River in order to fill the retention pond with it. Furthermore, the project will include elements of rainwater treatment (e.g. with the use of a sequential sedimentation and biofiltration system) and monitoring of the level of soil moisture and groundwater level (through specialised soil moisture sensors). The pilot project will use prototypes of PARO bollards, which are an innovative solution in the field of water microretention.

The pilot project will be very comprehensive and will take into account the problems of small retention, groundwater level, the presence of water in the city landscape. The aim of the pilot project will be to properly channel rainwater and snowmelt to solve current problems related to water shortage and periodic excess, resulting in flash floods and drying up of trees in the parks (caused by the lowering of groundwater levels due to the construction of an underground station and railway track), the need to artificially fill the river reservoirs existing in the valleys, once fully supplied with water from Łódź rivers.

Along with the restoration of river body, recreational and educational boulevards will be created. The concept of revalorization of the parks along with the river will be developed with the participation of citizens and for citizens, while maintaining the historical heritage of parks that are historical monuments. As part of the work, retention basin with stagnant water and aquatic vegetation will be created. The pilot project will make full use of the possibilities of using unsealed surfaces, allowing for infiltration of rainwater.

The area of parks along the Lamus River will be the centre of ecological workshops and of the promotion of the green transformation. There will be an opportunity to experience the activities of the European Green Deal and the activity of the European Parliament. The riverbed and the adjacent green areas will be converted into an educational trail that will be the focal point of future educational projects.

Restoration of the river, which had a direct impact on the creation of the Łódź "Promised Land", would be an excellent element of strengthening historical awareness and local identity, and at the same time fits in with the goals of the climate policy of European Green Deal. Since Łódź is poor in naturally flowing watercourses, the restoration of the river may have a positive effect on the city ecosystem, and contribute to the creation of a new unique tourist attraction. The implementation of the project will create European added value in terms of actions to solve a significant environmental problem and innovation.

Łódź, as a participant in the Climate Neutral and Smart Cities Mission, sets one of its main goals to exchange thoughts, experiences and successes in the field of green transition. The experience of many European cities is already being shared as part of innovative projects from the Horizon Program. The problem of restoration of the river is present in many European cities where rivers have been channelled or concreted. The innovative system of water retention and drainage of excess water offer a solution to the problems of all cities with problems with periodic flooding and droughts, which is characteristic especially for the highly variable climate of Central and Eastern Europe, where there are heat waves, heavy snowfall and heavy rains. The results of the analyses carried out on the implemented innovative solutions in the field of monitoring of soil moisture or microretention will serve as a tool for designing similar solutions in other parts of the city. Furthermore, by implementing the assumptions of the Climate Neutral and Smart Cities Mission, an innovative and comprehensive concept of urban biodiversity development will be made available to all local governments in Europe.

The area of the investment implementation covers 60 hectares of land in the city centre, partially includes historical areas located in the area of the City Center Revitalization Project. The innovative nature of the planned solutions and the historic character of a large part of the area covered by the project mean that the costs cannot be significantly reduced.

The pilot project is being developed with the participation of scientists from the European Regional Centre for Ecohydrology which under the auspices of UNESCO has grown out of the International Center for Ecology (ICE). The cost estimate was based on analyses by PricewaterhouseCoopers and Chapman Taylor Architects.

Europe’s cultural heritage in all its diversity bears enormous multiple values to Europe’s citizens and their communities and living environment, both urban and rural. As such, it is a key asset for the future of Europe. It bridges our past, present and future, by connecting people, including young people, across borders, cultures and generations, and strengthens our sense of pride and belonging (both at local and European levels). It also fosters social cohesion and inclusion and contributes to sustainable development especially by playing a key role in climate action as well as the green and digital transformation of our way of life. The successful European Year of Cultural Heritage in 2018, with its unprecedented mobilisation of heritage actors - both public and private - at all levels and throughout the entire continent, including candidate member states, clearly demonstrated the potential of cultural heritage to raise citizens’ awareness of and engagement in the European project based on shared history and values, especially among the younger generations.

The objective of the pilot project is to properly and effectively sustain the legacy of the European Year of Cultural Heritage 2018 by supporting the setting up of a ‘European Heritage Hub’, as an autonomous advocacy and knowledge platform bringing together all heritage stakeholders. It will be working under the auspices of the Commission’s expert group on cultural heritage to ensure coherent and concerted action with the Commission (DG EAC) for the benefit of a continuous and enhanced dialogue and action by all Union institutions and stakeholders. It will also seek to strengthen the engagement of citizens (especially young generation) with Europe’s cultural heritage. This will be achieved by mainstreaming youth in all activities of the platform.

The existing heritage stakeholders’ landscape is extremely rich and varied yet still fragmented and therefore in need of stronger coordination. Everyone would thus hugely benefit from a permanent and dynamic ‘hub’ that will foster, on a continuous basis and in a flexible and cost-effective manner, synergies between various projects (many of which are funded by Union programmes), various Union policy programmes which have a direct or indirect impact on cultural heritage, and various heritage-related initiatives and best practices developed by heritage stakeholders at all levels of governance (local, regional, national, European and international). Such a ‘European Heritage Hub’ will serve the interests and reflect the concerns of the entire ‘cultural heritage ecosystem’ covering tangible, intangible and digital cultural heritage, but also create synergies with all other relevant policy areas such as environment, climate action, urban and rural development, research, innovation, education as well as external relations.

The main objective of such a platform will be to pool voices, forces and resources – both public and private - for the benefit of a holistic and integrated approach to cultural heritage policies at all levels, notably at the Union level, and ensure that all relevant Union and national policies and priorities duly incorporate a cultural heritage dimension. In doing so, it shall respect the cross-cutting priorities of:

—Inclusiveness, diversity and equality, notably by targeting young people through communication campaigns, engaging and empowering projects as well as training opportunities;

—Green transformation and the fight against climate change, notably by mobilising cultural heritage stakeholders to address the most pressing topic of climate change and cultural heritage, both as a threat to cultural heritage and as an opportunity to develop adaptation and mitigation measures.

The following add-on activities can be developed (non-exhaustive list):

—Interactive online advocacy and knowledge platform gathering relevant policy and project documents and news from cultural heritage stakeholders at all governance levels;

—Meaningful and imaginative communication campaigns (online and offline), including the ones targeting young people;

—Research and analysis of emerging trends and phenomena with regard to cultural heritage to support evidenced-based policy-making;

—Capacity-building activities with regards, among others, to Union policies, programmes, funding opportunities as well as the green and digital transition;

—Joint projects to create better synergies between, inter alia the Creative Europe programme (including European Heritage Label), Erasmus+ programme, the European Solidarity Corps and Horizon Europe programme.

To function in the most efficient and cost-effective way, the ‘European Heritage Hub’ will be established with:

—A bottom-up approach: the Hub will be set up and run by a leading civil society organisation representative of Europe’s cultural heritage ecosystem;

—Target participants: bringing together and mobilising a widest possible spectrum of heritage stakeholders, both public and private, to reflect the richness and variety of Europe’s cultural heritage ecosystem;

—Partnership: establishing bridges and synergies between various existing European initiatives, including expert working groups, networks and fora, related to cultural heritage;

—Coherence: Under the auspices of the Commission’s expert group on cultural heritage, enhance a holistic and integrated approach to cultural heritage by all Union institutions and their key European and international partners (both intergovernmental and non-governmental).

—Mainstreaming: developing synergies with similar platforms which are active in related policy fields, such as architecture, urban planning, environment, climate action, cohesion, Sustainable Development Goals, energy, education, tourism, development, cultural diplomacy;

—Adequate financial support to ensure efficient and cost-effective coordination and outreach.

In the second year, the pilot project would broaden its scope by seeking to include more stakeholders in the Hub and enlarge the geographical coverage. Special focus should be given to Ukraine and Moldova, to the three countries in the Caucasus and to the Western Balkans.

New technologies are dramatically and constantly changing the opinion-making dynamics and the media landscape. While they allow to easily distribute information of public interest to wider audiences, fostering plurality, the way information is created, searched and distributed online, they also may accentuate polarisation in which a person is exposed to news, sources and ideas that adhere to her 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 poses a risk for ethical journalism, media pluralism and European democracy itself.

At the same time, journalists and other media actors face violence, threats, harassment or public shaming in the Union mainly because of their investigative activities to protect the public interest from the misuse of power, corruption, human rights violations or criminal activities, and according to the Council of Europe Platform for the Protection of Journalism and Safety of Journalists, more than half of the cases of abuses against media professionals are committed by state actors.

We have witnessed 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 the media. It is necessary to invest adequate financial resources in media and digital literacy and in developing common Union strategies, together with journalists, academics, international and civil society organisations, 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 Information Literacy’ is aimed to reinforce dialogue, cooperation and partnership in the Union, among journalists, media outlets including public service media, civil society organizations and media literacy professionals, focusing on the crucial questions of our time, with a special attention on youth, including student journalists, people and social media on how to tackle disinformation in the age of post-truth.

Each year, journalists from all over Europe will be invited to submit online prior contributions, on a dedicated platform, and bring forward concrete proposals for improving legislation and working conditions for the sector at both European and national levels. Under the auspices of this event, media professionals will be able to elaborate new proposals, monitor the implementation of existing rules and set out deliverables in areas such as the protection and safety of journalists, social security, a new business model for media, the role and impact of digitalisation on the media sector, the role of media in tackling disinformation or increasing media literacy. The event will then gather media professionals from different backgrounds, i.e. large media corporations, freelancers, independent investigative journalists, local media outlets, as well as representatives of press associations and media freedom NGOs, inviting national and European authorities’ representatives as guest speakers or observers. This format will not only improve journalists' awareness of existing measures and of best practices, but will also allow national and European authorities to connect and better understand the needs of the sector in the form of an annual structured dialogue. Every year, the event will produce a list of policy recommendations, taking into account contributions which have been submitted by journalists all around Europe, and set out conclusions to be drawn therefrom. These recommendations should then constitute the basis for policy actions in the field of media freedom, included in the working programmes of the European Commission, as well as other relevant

European and national authorities.

The ‘European Festival of Journalism and Media Information Literacy’ should become a powerful tool to raise awareness on the valuable but ever more difficult work of journalists and press freedom violations in the Union. To reach this purpose, it will be a traveling festival, taking place in a different Member State every year, and examine the alarming situation of press freedom, rising disinformation particularly with regard to the pandemic and climate crisis and journalists’ working conditions. With regard to implementation, the Commission will launch a yearly call for tenders addressed to media professionals, media organisations, relevant NGOs and academic partners, in order to ensure the organisation of the event.

For the purpose of increasing inclusiveness and encouraging participation to the event, the entity in charge of the organisation will dedicate a part of the budget to subsidising costs associated with the participation in this event of journalists and representatives of media associations with limited financial means such as small and local media representatives or freelancers.

It is estimated that the number of homeless people has gone up by 70% in Europe in the last ten years and this number is likely to rise as a result of the social impact of the COVID-19 crisis and the Ukraine refugee crisis. There are however no reliable European data on homelessness based on common criteria or indicators. This is recognised by the Parliament, the Commission and experts as an important barrier for an effective policy response.

Comparable and recurrent data on homelessness would allow the Commission to better support Member States to make progress in the fight against homelessness and realise Principle 19 of the European Pillar of Social Rights on 'housing and assistance for the homeless'. The data would enable evidence-based and better targeted action through the European Platform on Combatting Homelessness in order to work towards ending homelessness in the Union by 2030 as was agreed by all Member States in the Lisbon Declaration. The pilot project has been incorporated in the work plan of the Platform as one of the main actions on strengthening analytical work and data collection.

The pilot project therefore aims to stimulate regular collection of data on homelessness at local level. Local authorities are the best placed to address homelessness together with social services and civil society actors, and need reliable data to inform their policies. The pilot project would build on existing robust and effective methodologies, such as point-in-time counts, point of prevalence, and surveys. Complementarity should be explored with the work of EUROSTAT on the different dimensions of homelessness including rough sleeping, people staying in homeless shelters, people about to be released from an institution without having secured accommodation, and people forced to sleep on the sofa with family or friends (sofa surfers).

The pilot project would promote a common methodology among interested local authorities and coordinate a common European homelessness count at the same moment/in the same period. The aim would be to repeat such count on a regular basis, and expanding the number of cities participating over time. The results would inform local, national and European authorities and policymakers about the evolution of the nature and scope of homelessness, and the different dimensions and profiles of homelessness. It would also help to create public and political awareness about homelessness and contribute to creating a willingness to solve it. While building on different methodologies the project would work on making data comparable and drawing lessons about the trends at Union level.

The proposed top-up is paramount to allow for getting a deeper understanding of trends and characteristics of homelessness development, notably through subsequent data collection rounds.

For sport to maximise its relevance and assume its responsibility in creating a more sustainable Europe, an innovative concept is needed that contributes to people and planet. This pilot project will use the power of sport to make European citizens aware of the importance of sustainability and help them to understand how they can contribute to social cohesion and environmental protection. In addition, this initiative will be in line with the objectives of the New European Bauhaus.

The aims of the pilot project are to:

1. Raise awareness, inspire behaviour, and lead the thinking in European society on how sport can enable and accelerate social and environmental transformation;

2. Engage Union citizens to actively participate in sustainable measures using the communicative power of sport, its major events and leading ambassadors.

The pilot project will focus on examples of inspirational behaviour and practices at grassroots level that can be multiplied and on methods to engage citizens and sport stakeholders in communities to co-create and cooperate on sustainable sport practices.

Pilot project — Supporting local and regional news media in face of emerging ‘news deserts’

Local and regional news media play an important role for their communities. Not only do they provide information not available elsewhere and hold local power to account, they act as a binding force for the communities and an empowering force for their audiences. Without strong local media, disinformation and false stories, amplified by social media, can spread more easily at the regional level. Thus, local news have a unique and invaluable role in democratic societies.

However, successful operation and in some instances the very existence of local news media have become uncertain across areas of the Union. Already before the pandemic, their audiences are increasingly shifting to digital and mobile media environments, including social media. Meanwhile, advertisers are primarily moving to mostly US-dominated online platforms. Facing monetisation difficulties online and struggling due to diminishing advertising revenues, the traditional business model of these local news media has been completely undermined. This has resulted in shrinking newsrooms, ‘ghost newsrooms’, consolidations and even bankruptcies which in turn has not only reduced media pluralism subsequently, but in some cases even lead to complete ‘news deserts’ on local level, thus, denting the democratic processes at the local level. The fallout from the COVID-19 outbreak and the consequent abrupt loss of advertising revenues is further challenging the situation for the local media. There is a great risk of further undermining a crucial part of our democratic infrastructure.

The goal of the pilot project is to map the local and regional media ecosystem in the Member States, identifying existing and emerging ‘news deserts’ and noticeable lack of media pluralism, thus, creating a better repository of knowledge at a level for which there is insufficient data (‘news deserts’, access to local news); and to provide such local, regional media and community media with a tailored support that is directly linked to situations such as ‘news deserts’, ‘ghost newsrooms’ or a noticeable lack of media pluralism in areas of need.

In order to prevent formation of the ‘news deserts’ and to help restore the local and regional media fabric in areas in which there is insufficient provision of quality news and, thus, a pending threat to an effective access to diverse quality content, the pilot project aims to:

—support the mapping of the local and regional media ecosystem in the Member States in order to identify ‘news deserts’ and areas that are at risk of becoming such; and

—provide targeted and tailored support to independent local, regional media and community media in already existing or soon to become ‘news deserts’. The support should focus on or include the adoption of new technologies such as AI, data and similar by local, regional and community media, for which the sector is still not comprehensively equipped.

Pilot project — Citizen facing European TV and Video News Portal for Streaming, Search and Translation of European TV and video news and political documentaries produced or transmitted by accredited public and private media in Member States

Remarks

A functioning public sphere is essential for every democracy. Currently, however, a few powerful corporations based outside Europe dominate the digital public sphere in Europe.

The pilot project ‘Citizen-facing European TV and Video News Portal’ aims to contribute to a functioning public sphere, which uniquely equips citizens with a Europe-wide accessible video streaming platform and single access point for high-quality news and documentaries - in line with European values and necessary to participate in European democracy, across borders and in their own Member State.

For this purpose, it will create a single streaming platform for TV and video news content, directly accessible to European audiences and citizens, allowing them to search all content provided by public and private registered media in Member States and providing translated subtitles in all EU languages of that news and those documentaries. The Citizen-facing TV and Video News Portal will not be a TV station, but a neutral platform in the fundamental sense of the word. Therefore, it will not provide editorial services and will be purely infrastructure and technology oriented, as the content to be streamed on the Portal will be provided by the rich and varied own productions of news and documentaries from the many registered media in the Member States. For this purpose, it will seek to establish a technology alliance and a content alliance among interested media actors in Member States. While there is a number of Union actions aimed at enhancing editorial capacities and content-creation, this PP seeks to address another angle. The Portal will face citizens and be neutral in the sense that it will not take any editorial decisions on content provided by Member State public and private accredited media. User generated and independent producers’ content will be available on the platform from the outset, insofar as such content has previously been transmitted by public or private accredited media in the Union. As a second stage, procedures and rules should be designed and tested to enable content from independent creators and user generated content (UGC) to be directly added to the Portal, while maintaining the principle that no editorial control is carried out by the Portal. This principle is key to ensuring the Portal’s quality, reliability and independence, as well as its neutrality Accredited Content will only be excluded from transmission over the Portal if it does not comply with the principles relating to Union values and the necessary mechanisms to safeguard content independence will be put in place.

The Platform should only provide the infrastructure and technology necessary for content aggregation, discovery and search with a recommendation system functioning in line with democratic and European values of the Treaties, a system for automatic translation and a streaming service, thereby providing a pluralistic view of content. The recommendation system will therefore not aim to maximise viewing time using ever-increasing scandalisation, or base its recommendations entirely on prior interest and behavioural profiles of viewers, as in advertisement-financed streaming services. It will play out content strictly based on search words used by citizens and related word meanings, and this across all languages, thus in all cases providing a diverse picture of the news.

All the necessary technologies for the realisation of this project are available and merely need to be brought together and integrated into one system. It is thus feasible to realise this important additional step towards this vital element of European integration and democracy. There will only be a sustainable European democracy in the age of digitalisation if a European public sphere can be established, which offers verified information and different perspectives on current events to all citizens across language and cultural borders. In a real and sustainable European public sphere citizens of smaller countries and language groups or living in Member states with less variety or less independence of media must also have full access to the diversity of TV and Video news information and documentation that has been produced in Europe by accredited media, often financed from public funds.

The Pilot Project will address the need to be eventually organised in the form of a legal person, not controlled by Member States or Union Institutions or by profit objectives, but providing an independent public service with public financing.

The Citizen facing TV and Video News Portal is an unprecedented idea, as there is currently no digital streaming platform in the form of a single point of access to the vast diversity of European cultural goods in the form of TV and video news and political documentaries based on a fair recommender system and standards designed in line with our European rights and values. The Portal will make the rich cultural and democratic mix of public and private television and video news and documentary production by accredited media in all Member states accessible to all Union citizens. It will be an infrastructure-based building block on the path to creating a functioning European Digital Public Sphere and add to other existing projects, address the lack of a public sphere where common European issues are contested and be a chance to drive forward European integration and democracy.

This project is congruent with existing plans of the Commission, yet the does not seek to enhance contributors’ editorial capabilities. The Portal will stand in synergy to other Union Projects which enhance the ability of European News producers to create content such as the European Media platforms and the data space for media.

However, this proposal will exclusively focus on infrastructure and technology allowing direct access of citizens to a variety of existing content, not on producing new content.

This pilot project will explore potential synergies in terms of data sharing/exchange with the media data space.

The Portal needs to provide a high bandwidth and low latency HQ video and can be implemented in several phases. For the first year, identifying, including by means of a feasibility study, the necessary technological and infrastructure requirements and specifications that would be needed, the design of the recommended blueprint and the future financing needs, will have to be a priority. It will also be necessary to design the legal structure to govern the future platform and to start building an alliance of private and public accredited media in Member States willing to contribute their content. In the second year, a first demonstrator shall be designed on that basis and further contributors shall be invited to join the Portal.

Should working hours be reduced and adjusted in certain circumstances?

In 2021, the Spanish government decided to launch an experiment with volunteer companies to test the effect on job creation, quality of life and productivity when switching to a 4-day workweek. Spain is not an exception: the debate is rising in several countries that are facing both recruitment difficulties in many sectors of activity and the persistence of mass unemployment.

The aim of this pilot project is thus to collect data on concrete experiences of working time reduction and reorganisation in order to evaluate their advantages as well as disadvantages.

The objectives pursued by the companies that have experimented a new working time organisation are very varied:

—a better work/life balance,

—facilitating recruitment in sectors that experience difficulties to recruit,

—improving working conditions,

—improving the health of employees and diminishing their stress,

—facilitating longer careers,

—creating new jobs,

—rejuvenating the age pyramid in the company,

—implementing qualifying organisations and increasing the responsibilities of all workers (given that managers them too would generally work less, it gives the opportunity to all workers to increase their responsibilities),

—improving access to lifelong learning (particularly in SMEs),

—increasing the use of the most expensive machines as well as increasing the hourly amplitude of opening times for customers…

What is the outcome of these experiences? What were their successes? What were their failures? The aim of this pilot project is to make the most complete and pragmatic assessment possible of experiments concerning the organization of working time.

This analysis would be presented to social and political decision-makers. The analysis will also be made available in educational materials (infographics, videos, etc.) in order to inform the general public about the good practices implemented in innovative companies in the different Member States.

The pilot project will concretely consist in organising meetings with the different stakeholders concerned by the implementation of working time policies: employers, decision-makers, academics, trade unions, etc., in order to document the impact of these policies on the different components of society. These meetings will be documented and made visible to as many people as possible, notably through seminars, webinars, videos and reports made public.

The impact of this pilot project will be measured by the audience gathered by these various educational materials produced.

The subject of the organisation of working time can sometimes give rise to social tensions in certain countries. Documentation work that gives a voice to employers, workers and other stakeholders on the basis of successful concrete experiences in a wide range of sectors (SMEs and large companies, public and private, social economy, etc.) can provide very positive input to the European social dialogue.

This pilot project will consist of two main phases:

1. The first meetings in several countries (at least: Germany, Sweden, France, Spain, Belgium, Portugal, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic…) and seminars in various European cities will be organised in 2023.

2. The first documents, in written form, infographics and videos, will be made public in 2024.

The aim of this pilot project is to create a sport emergency programmes in the context of humanitarian crisis such as war in order to facilitate overcoming traumas, adapting to new environments and creating bonds with the temporary hosting communities.

Through sport activities and interventions, this pilot project will focus on encouraging community integration of children and youth. By improving their mental well-being by attending sport sessions, individuals will eventually become ready to adjust to their new environment. Sport with its power of bringing people together will help with interaction with the host community, easier integration into the education system or entering the labour market.

To achieve the best results those programmes should be organised at the local, grassroots level, mainly through grassroots sports clubs. Activities, games and sports must be designed in order to meet specific social and psychosocial goals. They need to be age appropriate, culturally appropriate and be considered in respect to the gender roles in the community. Building on the existing physical capacities of participants experienced coaches will help them to feel comfortable by encouraging to perform skills that they already know. Therefore, cooperation between grassroots sports clubs and centres that could offer social, psychological or pedagogical support would be important and required. This project would also involve, mainly as facilitators, sport federations. In addition, the purpose of this proposal is to inspire other sport clubs to set up support programmes by publishing and promoting experiences and good practices.

The main focus group are children and young people affected by humanitarian crises and mass migration processes in the context of war. This pilot project would also generate inclusion in the public space and promote the exchange of cultures and traditions of different ethnic groups.

Remarks

This pilot project originally received grade B in the Commission's assessment and is awaiting re-assessment.

Russia’s unprovoked and unjustified war in Ukraine, the following eradication of independent media inside Russia, and the wider geopolitical situation at our boarders, including Belarus' total dismantling of independent media in the last few years, provide a unique opportunity and responsibility for the Union to take leadership for safeguarding media plurality and independence in the wider regional context.

Despite external and internal challenges in the area of press freedom, the Union remains the safest place in the world for media and journalists to do their work. Given that freedom of expression is one of the fundamental values of the Union, the Union has the chance to become a major hub for those striving for freedom of expression and democracy.

Independent journalists and entire editorial newsrooms from Russia and Belarus have already fled or are relocating to European Union countries. They are hoping to continue their work in the fight for democracy of 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. At the same time, we need to support Ukrainian media and their staff who have come to the Union together with the growing number of war refugees from Ukraine.

These media organisations face an immediate lack of resources to continue their activities, but also the 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 play a major role in solving acute financial and resource problems of media relocating to the Union in a matter of first months, this pilot project aims to offer a predictable support mechanism that provides core support, opportunities for innovation and development in the longer term.

The goal of the pilot project is to promote the preservation of a pluralistic media environment of the countries affected, also whilst journalists and media are working from an exile. The broader aim is to make Europe a safer place by helping the peoples of these countries in their democratic aspirations, where independent media play an indispensable role.

The pilot project aims to explore precise support needs and subsequently provide appropriate support for independent media and journalists from Ukraine, Russia and Belarus that have relocated and are working from the Member States by:

—researching and mapping the needs and challenges of independent newsrooms and professional journalists who have relocated their operations;

—establishing support networks in several Member States, in order to provide tailored and adjusted support to the exile newsrooms and journalists. Overall, the support would focus on helping to introduce viable business models and innovative technical and content format solutions in order to reach audiences (including those with possibly limited access to the internet and other resources), as well as seek for synergies and promote sharing of best practice and networking (in particularly among exile media) while ensuring media independence and fostering plurality.

Remarks

This feasibility study paves the way to ensure effective and efficient implementation of the Union financial sanctions adopted against persons and entities linked to the Kremlin. The study will deliver a legal analysis of national and Union legislative frameworks to explore at what degree the legislation of the Union and Member States is coherent and fit for implementing the policy cycle of sanction-related asset recovery. The study will cover such aspects as sanction adoption, asset freeze, assets confiscation, reintroduction of the confiscated assets into national economy for social use, as well as into the Union budget for public spending in Ukraine. In the context of this research, assets means any monetisable ownership of sanctioned Russian oligarchs and business elites, such as bank accounts, cryptocurrencies, real estate, luxury property including yachts, works of art, diamonds, gold. By ‘social use’ is meant financing by Member States of all actions related to the protection of Ukrainian refugees they host, such as administrative procedures, social housing, transport, schooling, medical insurance. In addition the recovered assets will serve to finance Union humanitarian and development aid in Ukraine.

The study will analyse the design, scope, and challenges for such a Union-wide action on non-conviction based confiscation and reintroducing confiscated assets into the public use. For this purpose, it will suggest legal ways to establish the connection between the property owned by sanctioned individuals and entities on one side and the crime they have committed on the other side. The relation established between the crime and the property placed in the EU single market shall serve as a legal basis of further collective litigation or new legislative mechanism, based on the findings of the study.

The results of the study shall inform national law-making and may afterwards feed into a future Union policy initiative. Such link between the illegally-gained asset and the crime of Russia's attack on Ukraine can also serve as a basis for the implementation of other sanctions adopted in relation to other third-country individuals and entities.

The recovery and reuse of the assets that have been frozen as a result of Union sanctions adopted following Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine will serve multiple goals and objectives of the Union. Firstly, it will allow efficient implementation of sanction regime, going beyond the symbolic adoption. Secondly, it will boost public resources of the Member States hosting large communities of Ukrainian refugees. Thirdly, it will allow to direct a portion of the recovered assets into the Union budget for the financing of Ukraine’s reconstruction, serving de facto as a resource for Rebuild Ukraine Fund. Such Fund can also include, apart from recovered assets, also Union's budgetary resources, Russia's reparations and various donations. Fourth, it will ease the burden of financing the expenditures resulting from Russia’s attack on Ukraine, the burden currently shared by the Union and the Member States. Fifth, this will enhance the geopolitical potential of Union sanctions and serve as a dissuasive measure for other third-country asset owners, who are not on the sanction list, but who might be subject to sanctions should they engage in activities violating human rights and democracy principles.

As a result, this study will indicate legal pathways within the existing Union legal framework for effective asset recovery in a defined number of cases, such as unprovoked military aggression. Ultimately, the policy actions based on this study will contribute to strengthening of Union values, reinforcing the Rule of Law and end of impunity.

Remarks

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

The underwater soundscape holds a wide range of information on the prevailing geological, biological and human activity in the marine environment. Within the context of Directive 2008/56/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 establishing a framework for community action in the field of marine environmental policy (Marine Strategy Framework Directive) (OJ L 164, 25.6.2008, p. 19) (MSFD), where Descriptor 11 focuses specifically on underwater noise, the research and monitoring of underwater sound has grown considerably over the last few years and various research projects are already recording underwater sound in European seas. Being able to filter out the individual components (detecting and identifying certain types of ships, marine organisms, offshore human activities, etc.) from these complex underwater sound recordings and making them open and easily available, opens a plethora of possible valorisation options (ranging from automated environmental monitoring to offshore security applications).

A specific application lies in the development of tools to support the MSFD, and more specifically Descriptor 11. The precise knowledge of the sound signature of both biotic and abiotic sources, is needed to be able to connect measured sounds to the source and to identify the biotic and abiotic presences in an area. This requires libraries with underwater sound reference signals, which are currently only starting to be developed for deep-water environments and where little or nothing exists for shallow seas. The underwater soundscape in shallow seas is typically more complex than in deep-water environments as they are characterised by a lot of reflections and sound sources, especially so in highly impacted and highly dynamic areas, with intensive human activities.

The pilot project will build and test a prototype of an open reference library for marine underwater sound signatures focused on shallow, highly dynamic sea areas. It includes the:

—setting up of a database of underwater sounds together with whatever information is known about their source; since the availability of databases for sound in shallow seas is limited, it is necessary to ensure that sufficient measurements can be made available to build, fill and evaluate the prototype; where possible it will be built on existing data sets, where necessary scientifically based recording and processing of additional sound signals will be carried out in order to achieve a representative fill and to be able to make the necessary links with related (open) data streams that can strengthen the interpretation.

—using this database to train artificial intelligence algorithm for attribution of source; research, development and implementation of advanced methodologies for the deployment of artificial intelligence and neural networks to build a framework for sound source classification, and the subsequent development of open source packages for automated signal classification. Testing of the procedures in a shallow seas use case.

—making the database and software publicly available; although the use of the database will be mainly focused on professional purposes, such an initiative also has great potential for involving the wider society in research and innovation (e.g. citizen science/ocean literacy), tying in with the ambitions of the EU Open Science Policy ,as embedded throughout the Horizon Europe programme.

Remarks

Food issues are at the heart of the transition to a more sustainable Union. Under the umbrella of the European Green Deal, the Farm to Fork strategy emphasises that the transition to a healthy, sustainable and resilient food system will not happen without a change in the diets of citizens, who are increasingly concerned about environmental, sanitary, social and ethical issues and the value of their food. In this context, the promotion of organic food is an important tool. At national level, several Member States have set targets for the percentage of organic products in canteens, with the aim of encouraging local stakeholders to act.

Those initiatives lead to a transformation of practices in public canteens, especially at local level, and often have positive implications for the territories. However, they are characterised by great disparities between Member States due to differences in the functioning of structures, the distribution of competences, and the different levels of ambition of the experiments undertaken.

To date, there is no data that would allow us to measure these transitions in the field of collective catering, although this information would be useful for developing a common language and exchanging good practices between European territorial actors on these issues. This would allow not only the identification of the current blockages but also the levers, the tools and the possible roads towards a successful food transition.

For this purpose, the pilot project proposes a practical tool based on 3 axes:

1) The establishment of a European observatory, as light as possible in order to quickly collect practices and emerging projects in the field of collective catering throughout the Union. That collection should identify blockages and facilitate the reading of the changes that are taking place in the territories that have chosen to integrate organic products in their canteens. It should allow for:

—an evaluation of how the legislation on Green Public Procurement impacts the sector of organic farming and food.

—the study of the practices and approaches of local authorities in order to characterize transitions, identify innovations (including educational ones, particularly in schools) and emerging issues.

—the provision of valuable information on the financial approach taken by local communities and authorities in introducing organic food in canteens (notably how they integrate and mitigate costs).

—the improvement of educational programmes on organic food in schools by reinforcing their information and education component on good nutrition

—an evaluation of the link between food waste reduction and the introduction of organic food in public canteens

—the following of issues and opportunities regarding the nutritional quality of organic meals/meals with organic ingredients

—the measurement of the involvement of local actors in the organisation of collective catering, including farmers

2) The creation of a "European club of territories" to offer a space for elected officials and local stakeholders to exchange and share experiences on the introduction of organic food in canteens.

3) The creation of a practical guide for elected officials and local stakeholders on how to best organise locally in order to introduce organic food in canteens, to transform the practices in canteens towards more sustainability and to give back to local stakeholders a capacity of action on the food system.

Climate change and biodiversity loss are strongly interlinked. Climate change impacts the ecosystems and changes the habitats of species, which impacts their ability to survive. The more the temperatures rise, the fewer species will be able to survive. On the other hand, poor ecosystem health exacerbates the effects of climate change, when healthy ecosystems mitigate the impacts of climate change. Still, climate change gets much more attention in the public debates compared to biodiversity.

Economic pressures on the use of natural resources are high and growing, and economic growth has not yet been achieved without a loss of biodiversity. Currently, we are losing biodiversity at an alarming rate and there is an urgent need for action.

We need more protected areas. According to the EU biodiversity strategy, we should protect at least 30 % of our land and sea areas. Untouched areas are so scarce, that even if we would protect all of them, that would not be enough. Now, with the ongoing negotiations on the biodiversity convention, we should shift from the principle of no-net-loss to the net-plus principle. This means that also the compensation principle should be more ambitious than before. When a new land area is taken to use, an area of the same or bigger size should be restored or it should be compensated by protecting a new area.

The EU’s biodiversity strategy for 2030 focuses on sustainable use, but more focus should be given to binding targets for conservation, restoration and use.

Through carbon offsets and compensations, it is possible to better link climate to biodiversity. This can be done, for example, by connecting the voluntary carbon offsets and compensations, e.g. the ones that you can buy when you buy a flight ticket or the ones companies are using to compensate for their emissions, so that they claim to be carbon neutral, to biodiversity conservation and restoration. This could be done through directing the payments to funds that buy areas to be conserved or restored, or to the conservation of old grown forest and the restoration or conservation of terminal felled forests and peatlands, to support their rewilding in the next decades and centuries.

Currently, many voluntary offset schemes exist, but there is no guarantee of their real-life impact and they risk to be greenwashing.

The pilot project will discover how the climate offsets and compensations, and maybe ETS in the future, can be linked to directly benefit biodiversity conservation and restoration.

As maritime traffic increases, although offering a promising international growth to a port, it creates a concern on the environmental burden to the local and regional community. In an effort to mitigate such an environmental impact, many port authorities have adopted a new strategy envisaging a self-sustained port in terms of energy autonomy and zero-emission production, with the use of new technologies that will help manage resources in a more sustainable and cost-effective manner. In fact, the use of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) to cover the energy needs of port activities along with the availability of electric charging services to hybrid and fully electric vessels and the operation of vessels using electricity provided by the ports while at berth (On-shore Power Supply, OPS) are considered some of the most innovative and impactful characteristics of a modern port. The implementation of such actions can drastically reduce vessel emissions and noise inside the port areas, and are especially critical for a continuously expanding port.

In this respect, upgrades and optimisation of the port energy network and the corresponding operational framework can significantly improve the environmental performance of the port transforming it into a greener, technologically advanced pillar of the maritime industry. The introduction of integrated technical applications related to the power grid of the port, the energy storage, the monitoring and the energy management are expected to provide a sustainable holistic solution that will upgrade the future energy profile of the port, providing also the shipping industry with access to more sustainable and greener sources of energy.

Ports adopting such a strategy and implementing such investments are becoming de facto energy hubs

—managing the flow of energy from:

—the local electrical grid

—RES to ships (wind-, wave-, sun-to-power)

—floating power sources (barges that provide additional energy to the port, gas-to-power)

—waste (waste-to-power),

—managing energy storage in batteries other storage means

—storing green hydrogen (produced from RES) for use in fuel cells

—managing the flow of energy to:

—port’s own energy requirements

—vessels at berth (OPS)

—charging electric or hybrid vessels

—maintaining an ‘electric cooperation’ of the port and local grids by integrating both for reasons also of ‘peak shaving’.

There are certainly technical issues to be tackle dealing with grid capacity and technologies but the problems are not merely or only technical. After the steps of implementing full port electrification and energy management, ports are confronted with several related commercial and financial challenges. In fact, there are various alternative operating models of ports as energy key players; indicatively:

—Closed distribution network operator: the port acts as the sole operator of a small, closed distribution grid being responsible only for distribution of power from the energy providers to the ship-clients. In this case, the port may charge a tariff for the use of the port grid by ship operators. This may be the case for liner vessels (container carriers, Ro-Ro, Ro-Pax vessels) or cruise vessels calling at specific ports regularly. Each vessel manager may select an own power supplier with whom that manager may have a long-term contract for the purchase of power.

—Energy provider: the port can deal with the energy transactions and perform energy trading (buy and sell), such as making short- and long-term contracts with producers and ship-clients. This may be the case for charter vessels (tankers, bulk carriers, etc.) that may call at a port on occasion. The vessel manager will not sign a long-term contract with an electricity provider but will instead opt to purchase the electricity directly from the port or from the port supplier.

—Energy producer: the port can produce energy especially via RES or Energy Storage Units, aiming at providing ships with that energy.

As the energy market is unbundled, these alternative operating schemes are not always compatible with one another and, hence, the port will be obliged to select which is the most beneficial scheme according to their own business model. Currently the way to deal with this, is for a port to analyse business risks, make an appropriate business plan, but eventually select one single option for the commercial structure of the pricing model on a sub-optimal modus operandi (i.e., not covering all cases).

In an era when RES and OPS are essentially necessary measures for the greening of port activities and when to this end significant investments are needed, a pricing model, which is not flexible due to the current regulatory requirements for energy, poses an additional hurdle to the adoption of such beneficial technologies and creates a significant bottleneck in the implementation of European Green Deal targets in ports and shipping.

Therefore, a regulatory framework that is especially for ports must be established that overcomes these obstacles and allows the ports (being probably the nodes of the network with the highest concentrated external costs) to flexibly manage their energy system. Moreover, it will create a port network that is free from obstacles and bottlenecks and capable of moving goods, services, capital, and people seamlessly. Finally, it will create new commercial opportunities to companies operating, thus fostering port competitiveness, sustainability, and better integration of ports in the transportation and energy networks and in the international value chain.

Remarks

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

The European Green Deal has set ambitious goals for public and private stakeholders to take action to combat climate change. Its implementation will require an abundance of resources, including viable and actionable data to allow governments to identify risks, tailor policy response and resource allocation, and monitor progress at the local, national and regional level. Satellite imagery provides policy-makers with a unique view of the Earth and its needs. The Copernicus programme will be at the core of the European Green Deal monitoring strategy. In addition, the Union has the Copernicus Contributing Missions that fill in the gaps for demand of high resolution and area coverage needed for environmental and climate policy development. The use of contributing missions with monitoring capability shall be considered if higher temporal cadence or spatial resolution is required, to augment Sentinel missions monitoring capabilities.

New space technology can deliver real-time and detailed information on large areas that allow stakeholders to receive real-time alerts and take action on time. Such datasets can be at a more frequent cadence, greater resolution and have access to more past data to inform current trends and can come with sophisticated analytics. Concurrently, this allows for a full complementarity of new space monitoring missions to Sentinel missions. The Sentinels act as the radiometric reference for ensuring seamless interworking. This is also essential for retaining forward compatibility, comparability and continuity, especially when future evolved Sentinel satellite missions become operational.

Union institutions and Member States rely on Copernicus for space-based data sets to track deforestation, biodiversity loss, soil degradation, and agricultural land use. However, complementarities with contributing monitoring satellite data have not been sufficiently explored, potentially leaving Union programmes without complete data sets, or capabilities (such as analytics). This pilot project is therefore necessary to produce a gap analysis of where commercial data and Copernicus capabilities can be complementary, and demonstrate the potential added value of detailed and near-real-time data sets.

This study will take place over one year, with the intention to initiate a demonstrator pilot project in the next financial year.

Pilot project — Reframing the exotic pet trade in Europe: developing effective science-based demand reduction interventions

Remarks

The Union is a hub, transit point and destination for wild live animals, which are often illegally caught and smuggled out of their country of origin to be sold as exotic pets. Keeping exotic animals as pets is a growing trend stimulated by social media. The Union is one of the largest reptile and amphibian consumer markets in the world and it is home to some of the world’s largest reptile and amphibian fairs. Reptiles and amphibians are high on the list of seized illegally traded wildlife in the Union and this trade contributes to the extinction of species in range states. Some exotic animal species may become invasive in Europe when released in the wild or when they escape, to the detrimental of the conservation of native fauna.

Demand reduction interventions are increasingly recognised as a key long-term approach to tackling wildlife trafficking. While demand reduction was among the priorities of the EU Action Plan against Wildlife Trafficking and some information campaigns have been launched, these have not resulted in a decrease in the demand for exotic pets. The EU progress report of the Action Plan acknowledges that more needs to be done. As highlighted in a report by the UN environmental organisation UNEP, activities to reduce consumers’ demand should be based on tested frameworks from behavioural sciences.

Research suggests that owners of exotic pets have different personality traits than traditional pet owners. Many awareness campaigns based on general biases and assumptions are merely information activities which do not target behavioural change and are therefore ineffective. The proposed Pilot Project addresses the need for effective evidence-based interventions to decrease demand for exotic pets. It focuses on creating the scientific basis for such activities and will provide the Commission and Member States with the tools and good practices to implement effective demand reduction campaigns in cooperation with NGOs and other stakeholders.

As the precise extent of the reptile, amphibian, bird and mammal trade in Member States remains unknown, particularly in terms of the species involved, and largely due to the unreported nature of the trade in unregulated species, the project will implement an in-depth research of the overall trade flows in and to the Union in reptiles, birds, mammals and amphibians and focus on the Member States that are the main consumer destinations in the legal and illegal trade, both globally and within Europe, namely France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands. Special consideration will be given to potential invasive alien species threatening EU biodiversity, based on the EU Horizon Scan and other published sources. With the collaboration of experts on consumer behaviour, the project will then research the profile of exotic pet consumers in those Member States. A reframing process, fed by the research on consumer behaviour and discussion of possible interventions with relevant stakeholders, will lead to the identification of options for effective demand reduction activities to achieve the needed long-term behavioural change of the European exotic pet consumers, based on initial testing of interventions.

More specifically, this project will result in:

1. A research report presenting the results of the study on consumer profiles, values and motivation of exotic pet keepers in the target countries.

2. A report presenting insight into the exotic pet trade in and to the Union, with a focus on France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.

3. A report providing an overview of possible activities aimed at changing consumer behaviour in order to reduce the illegal and unsustainable demand for exotic pets, based on stakeholder discussions and initial testing of interventions addressing reptiles and amphibians’ consumers.

Remarks

Actions to reverse the alarming decline of wild pollinators are an essential part of the European Green Deal. Our food security and wellbeing depend on the success of these efforts. Failure to address the problem will most dramatically affect future generations. Therefore, it is critical to engage today’s youth in development and implementation of the solutions. A mere call for engagement will not do. Empowering younger generations to act on the problem and shape the future will require dedicated tools and resources.

In its resolutions on the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030: Bringing nature back into our lives and on the EU Pollinators Initiative, the Parliament has called on the Commission and Member States to better support citizen engagement, including in youth programmes. While a number of ad hoc projects to mobilize (young) citizens on pollinator conservation have been launched at Union level, their scope and scale need to be substantially increased. In particular, funding opportunities adjusted to youth conditions and needs currently lack, as well as a dedicated platform through which youth can engage in Union decision-making processes. In the European Year of Youth, it is essential to undertake first steps to address these shortcomings and support youth in voicing their views on policies that will affect their future as well as in taking actions on the ground.

Actions could be based on:

—building capacity in youth engagement and participatory governance with regard to the conservation of wild pollinators and relevant Union policies across Member States;

—the creation of a permanent European Youth Assembly on Pollinators as the platform for sharing knowledge and experience, discussing and making recommendations for policy development and implementation to halt the decline of wild pollinators. The assembly shall consist of young participants from all Member States;

—the training and education of young actors on the conservation of wild pollinators and biodiversity, embedding this in school curricula;

—facilitating access to Union funds via a Small Grants Scheme. The scheme shall support youth-led actions in all Member States with an aim to unlock local potential for the conservation of wild pollinators, strengthen local capacities for action, and increase visibility of and translate the Union biodiversity policy and objectives into local context. By focussing on the skills and ideas of young volunteers and jobseekers, the scheme shall also improve local youth employment opportunities and contribute to the sustainable territorial development. The actions shall involve local authorities and stakeholders with a view to ensure long-term impacts of the actions.

The activities could focus, among others, on:

—improving the status of threatened pollinator species and their habitats through targeted local action;

—field monitoring (citizen science) with a view to supporting local, regional, national or Union efforts to monitor pollinator species and the threats they face;

—mapping pollinator habitats for supporting tangible activities on the ground for their protection and/or restoration;

—improving Protected Area management and/or governance effectiveness with regard to pollinator conservation;

—supporting local stakeholders’ initiatives (e.g., local communities and authorities) to help protect/conserve/restore pollinator populations or their habitats;

—analyses to better understand/quantify the threats to pollinators in order to support tangible activities on the ground during the lifetime of the project;

—addressing drivers of pollinator decline through targeted local action;

—promotion and development of opportunities for local socioeconomic development linked to pollinator/biodiversity conservation (e.g. local sustainable production of food or medicinal herbs, ecotourism);

—local and participatory circular economy solutions for preserving pollinators and the ecosystem services they provide, including by reducing pressures on them;

—promotion and introduction of agroecological and agro-forestry practices;

—promotion of pollinator-friendly management on private property (e.g. gardens);

—support to local stakeholders’ enhanced participation in activities and processes on biodiversity and sustainable development;

—public awareness, education campaigns, socio-cultural activities, training and capacity building.

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

Evidence-informed policymaking (EIPM) has become more important than ever due the ever-increasing complexity of economic, social and environmental challenges we are facing. The current policy challenges are characterised by a mixture of complexity, uncertainty and ambiguity. These challenges ultimately have an impact on citizens at local and regional level, which is why EIPM matters even more at those levels of governance. Moreover, in the current climate of populism, post truth and fake news, public scrutiny and the accountability of science are crucial aspects to enhance the democratic processes.

The pilot project ‘Science meets Parliaments/Science meets Regions’ addressed these challenges mainly through the organisation of events on various policy topics and the financing of studies in support of this event, as well as some pilot training course for national, regional and local policymakers.

As the pilot phase is ending, it is clear that there is still a real need for this tool, especially at regional and local level. It is also obvious that the next steps should work towards a clearer focus and structural impact across regions and cities in Europe, beyond the pioneering work in the pilot project.

This will be the main objective of the preparatory action, which will primarily address Commission policy priorities topics in line with the Commission policy priorities:

—European Green Deal,

—digital transition,

—promoting an economy that works for people,

—enhancing European democracy,

—promoting the European way of life,

The regional and local actors across Europe are actively involved in reaching these policy objectives in particular:

—contributing to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent by 2050, while boosting the competitiveness of industry and ensuring a fair transition for the territories and workers affected,

—implementing the social pillar and supporting SMEs investment and financing,

—enhancing the integration of migrants at local level and fighting poverty,

—increasing investment in technologies such as block chain and artificial intelligence,

—giving a stronger role to European citizens in decision-making in order to build trust in the institutions/public sectors as well as in the democratic processes,

The preparatory action will also aim at filling the gap in the Union instruments dealing with EIPM, which target mainly the national authorities (governments) and do not foresee any networking initiative at European level to share practices, methods and instruments.

OBJECTIVES

Building on the successful results achieved during the pilot phase, the preparatory action aims at strengthening local science for policy ecosystems through the following objectives:

(1) building awareness and mutual understanding at regional, interregional and national level on policy-relevant questions and the kind of evidence needed to answer them;

(2) supporting regional and local decision-makers and policymakers to develop skills to understand, obtain, assess and utilize targeted, reliable high-quality evidence as well as engaging with stakeholder;

(3) creating a community of practitioners across Europe that share experiences and knowledge in order to enhance the local ecosystem for EIPM.

ACTIONS OR TYPES OF FINANCIAL INTERVENTIONS

1. Country-based component

In cooperation with the Committee of the Regions, a ‘recommendations guide’ of implementation of the post 2020 policies will be elaborated. Then, this strand will finance 10 innovation camps at regional and municipal level to address key challenges framed in one of the abovementioned Commission policy priorities. The project proposals have to be submitted by regions or cities in partnership with local stakeholders (universities, development agencies, etc.). Furthermore, the project should target structural impact, and preferably be embedded in a process at national or regional level, with the aim of putting in place policies, programmes or strategies.

This component will also support pairing schemes between policy-makers and scientists, in order to build policy makers’ capacity to use research in their work. Through creating these connections, the programme aims to facilitate a long term dialogue between the two communities, to make research more accessible, and to increase policy-makers’ use of evidence in their work.

2. Multi-countries component

This strand will support initiatives, such as conferences or workshops, which involve at least two regions or cities, possibly based on existing partnerships. The topic of the initiative should be in line with one of the above-mentioned Commission policy priorities. This component will allow regions and cities to share experiences with others facing similar challenges, or having complementary expertise and capacity.

3. Community-building component

This component will support the creation of a European community of practitioners involving the participants in the preparatory action and in the previous pilot project. It will finance actions such as:

—training courses for policy-makers on EIPM and citizen engagement;

—training courses for national, regional and local schools of government of academies (training the trainers);

—a study on the practices and tools to strengthen the capacity to create and use evidence at regional and local level across Europe; aiming to provide a broad overview of EIPM at subnational level;

—a platform to share best practices and examples of EIPM at subnational level;

—an annual conference organised jointly with the European Parliament and the Committee of the Regions.

Remarks

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

The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) include specific goals on water, in particular SDG 6 – ‘Ensure access to water and sanitation for all’ and SDG 14 ‘Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development’. Other goals like SDG 11 – ‘Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable’ emphasise the need for a system approach to tackle the issues raised by SDGs holistically beyond resource efficiency.

Following a first pilot project, this preparatory action will emphasise links with other resources (including in particular energy) and position sustainable water management in a broader context. The world economic forum has issued a reflection on ‘water and the 4th industrial revolution’, that points to a convergence of the digital, physical and biological domains. It mentions digital technologies like ‘The Internet of Things’ , virtual and augmented reality and artificial intelligence that are inducing process changes in businesses and society, but more importantly also social changes on values, behaviour and identities. Indeed, many of the goals identified in the UN SDG address raising of problem awareness and to ‘promote responsible behaviour, educate about the importance of efficiency of use of resources’.

The main premise of this call is that a joint approach of the digital with the arts will help induce changes in our mind-sets, on a business, on a societal and on an individual level. Art and its capacity to present data and induce novel experiences (not the least with novel digital technologies like AR/VR) might be a game changer in the way information can induce changes of values and behaviour. Another important aspect is community involvement where digital and the arts can play jointly an equally important role in enabling participatory collective data gathering. Art can ultimately drive creative solutions to SDG goals by questioning established patterns and pushing technology to limits. Among others, the action will build on S+T+ARTS programme -innovation at the nexus of Science, Technology, and the ARTS. With STARTS, DG CONNECT - has promoted art as a fruitful element in helping digital technologies making a difference for humans and environment.

Applicants targeted: organisations working at the interface of art with technology and ecology, technology institutions and end-users willing to team up with artists, art institutions, foundations.

Description of the activities: residencies of artists in industry and technology institutions and concrete small-scale activities that point to new pathways for policy and society (via third part funding), exhibitions, dissemination, awareness raising actions, educational activities.

The platform supports data-driven policymaking - at regional, national and European levels - by providing macro-level trusted insights into the growth potential of various startup ecosystems. It has already informed and will be an important tool to monitor progress towards, for example, the targets set out in the recent Commission Communication on the 2030 Digital Compass (COM(2021) 118 final) and the impact of the EU Startup Nations Standard adopted by 25 Member States to date. A follow-up ‘European Startups 2.0’ project would support the consolidation of the platform and its transition to becoming a self-sustaining resource available to policymakers and other private and public technology ecosystem holders in the medium- and longer-term.

Startups and scaleups are key to Europe's future economy and society. They have become a significant contributor of new, quality jobs and are by far the fastest and most resilient growing job engine with 10% year-on-year growth. Two million people are now employed in tech startups across Europe and this is expected to rise to 3,2 million by 2025. Startups and scaleups have a proven capacity to develop breakthrough innovations in response to real world needs, create new jobs and build synergies with Europe’s strong traditional industries. The role startups can play in the recovery from the ongoing crisis - and in accelerating the green and digital transformation - cannot be understated.

The New European Bauhaus (NEB) initiative, announced by President von der Leyen in her 2020 State of the Union address, is an environmental, economic, social and cultural project, aiming to combine sustainability, investment, affordability, accessibility and design in order to help deliver the European Green Deal and its overarching goal for the Union to become the world’s first ‘climate-neutral bloc’ by 2050.

Values and idea. The core values of the NEB are sustainability, aesthetics and inclusiveness. Its ambition is to develop an interdisciplinary framework to support, facilitate and accelerate the green transformation by combining sustainability, innovation, circularity and quality of experience, including aesthetics. This framework will embrace industrial, educational, artistic and cultural spheres creating bridges between science, research, technology and enterprises, on one hand, and culture, architecture, art and design, on the other hand. It will also help to promote social inclusion, including affordability and accessibility. To sum up, the NEB is about finding innovative, creative and suitable solutions to complex societal problems (in buildings and beyond) through co-creation.

Timeline: the NEB will unfold in three phases: co-design (from October 2020 to summer 2021), delivery (from September 2021 onward) and dissemination (from January 2023 onward). The phases will overlap, as individuals and communities interested in the first ideas are likely to become partners to deliver and scale up the initiative.

Management: the NEB is managed by the core project team in the Joint Research Centre under the steering of President‘s cabinet. The work is coordinated with the two Lead Commissioners: Mariya Gabriel and Elisa Ferreira and supported by the Steering network with core DGs and cabinets (EAC, RTD, ENER, CLIMA, ENV, GROW, CNNECT, REGIO, EMPL, SecGen, Com). In addition, the External High-level Roundtable of Experts provides an informal advice on the initiative.

Given an interdisciplinary and horizontal nature of the NEB initiative coupled with a complexity of interlinkages between existing structures, frameworks, regulations and financial instruments it is important to streamline the standards and guidance in one platform and make them available to potential NEB partners and project beneficiaries.

In light of the above, a preparatory action New European Bauhaus Knowledge Management Platform will be launched. The aim of this preparatory action will be to streamline the standards and guidance around the three dimensions of the NEB (sustainability, aesthetics, inclusiveness) and information about NEB projects funding opportunities. This will allow potential partners and beneficiaries to align with the NEB standards while designing and implementing their transformation projects and well as help them to match project ideas with available funding.

The following steps will be taken in order to reach the aim of the preparatory action:

1. to identify and classify the requirements and standards, guidelines, codes of practices related to the three dimensions of the NEB (sustainability, aesthetics, inclusiveness) and the existing funding opportunities in order to find synergies, gaps and define further needs; identify and reach out to potential partners in order to establish the NEB stakeholders fora;

2. to establish the NEB Knowledge Management Platform designed in a user-centric manner which - on the one hand - will disseminate the collected information about standards, guidance and project funding opportunities among the identified NEB partners and a broader public and - on the other hand - will serve as a depository of ideas and platform for discussion, exchange of best practices for the interested parties;

3. to develop a methodology for project self-assessment and design a dedicated practical toolkit to guide the preparation and implementation of individual local transformation projects. For each requirement to be aligned to the NEB principles (from the integration of inclusion, sustainability and quality of experience values to the multidisciplinary and collaborative approach) a number of indicators and their related assessment criteria will be established to assist a proper identification and assessment of NEB projects.

The EU Blockchain Observatory and Forum aims to mobilise blockchain stakeholders involving private companies, public bodies, academia, civil society and individuals in technical and policy discussions about the future development of blockchain. It is also a trustworthy knowledge base about Union blockchain ecosystem including (i) publication of deep dive analysis of thematic issues, the technological and policy trends; (ii) mapping blockchain projects across the Union and the world; and (iii) workshops around topics where acting at Union level would be required or would have an impact.

Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs) as a ‘trust technology’ can provide responses to various challenges identified in the course of integration of different digital services, securing cyber and social security, and improving the efficiency of economy and society, ranging from identity and document exchange management to self-executing contracts, processing information flows and ensuring the maintenance of repositories and registries. Europe is well placed to lead the development of new trusted public, commercial and industrial services and applications based on blockchain and DLTs. Europe has academics, innovative entrepreneurs, start-ups and large firms eager to use such technologies in their sectors.

While blockchain and DLTs are increasingly adopted in different domains, it has been increasingly highlighted that a sound and healthy scaling up of technology is hampered by fragmented information and knowledge as well as chasm between policy-making and expert knowledge on technology. In order to unlock advantages that the technology brings, a coherent and balanced approach is necessary to scale up blockchain ecosystem across the public and private sector by dissolving the information and knowledge disparity, linking the existing projects in Europe, and mobilising the stakeholders.

The EU Blockchain Observatory and Forum has built a community with strong credibility around its events and thematic reports and has become a recognised player in Europe and on the international scene since its launch in February 2018 under the previous EP pilot project (2017/2018).

The provisions on consumer empowerment in Renewable Energy Directive 2001/2018 (RED II) and the Electricity Directive 944/2019 (IMED) 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 for European 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 REPowerEU communication 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 becomes ever more important in order to tap into the full flexibility potential of local renewable energy production, with close involvement of citizens. The war in Ukraine also has 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:

—(i) monitoring and mapping of individual and collective prosumer schemes, paying particular attention to levels of citizen participation, and enabling frameworks for self-consumption (68) and implicit and explicit demand side response in the Union;

—(ii) 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.

—(iii) identifying emerging ownership and business models (including peer to peer exchange, local flexibility services, energy sharing, community storage) and offers related to grid-integrated (69) prosumer schemes, and monitoring the guarantees of benefits to citizens, the system, and wider society.

—(iv) 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) (70);

—(v) 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 REPowerEU Communication on Electricity Market Design. 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 the pilot project 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 at-risk candidates outside 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 European funding by coordinating the efforts of different programmes.

This preparatory action is inspired by policy recommendations developed by the H2020 MSCA project ‘Inspireurope’.

The 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 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 action will emphasise artificial intelligence, but does not exclude activities in other digitally pertinent topics relevant in the selected regions. The action builds among others on the S+T+ARTS programme in DG CONNECT that promotes synergies between the arts and digital technology.

Remarks

This PA is a continuation of a PP012102 which has been 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 (CEC) 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 European 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 Citizens Energy Communities (CEC) and Renewable Energy Communities (REC) which should be an opportunity for Member States to strengthen the role of citizens in the energy transition.

The goal of the pilot project will be to coach renewable and citizen energy communities through the process of creating and implementing a territory transition.

EU Road Safety Exchange + (EURSE) (II) will consolidate the work on exchange of knowledge and best practice of the pilot project and expand the scope to a larger number of Member States. A longstanding programme ensures continuous peer support, essential to achieving both national and European targets for reducing road deaths and serious injuries, as well as high-level visibility and ownership for road safety in the Member States. It provides new tools and solutions based on international good practice and establishes consistent partnership between countries. Targeted action on key topics will help close the significant road safety performance gap between Member States.

The preparatory action will expand the number of participants of the EU Road Safety Exchange project and identify participating countries based on their potential for achieving significant road safety improvements. Twinning experts would be selected based on their proven record of implementing effective road safety measures on the subjects of interest. The preparatory action will set up a new mechanism for exchange and systematic follow-up to ensure that professionals in participating Members States have the necessary knowhow and tools to introduce long-term reforms in road safety, in line with national resilience and recovery plans. The activities envisaged include online thematic workshops, study visits on the ground, as well as systematic follow-up and a final conference to share knowledge and experience with a wider audience.

Remarks

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

The inland waterways transport is changing benefitting from emerging technologies that lead to a safer, digital and more sustainable sector. Autonomous vessel operations will open new business opportunities, as well as new challenges, supporting the digitalisation and sustainability challenges of the Union. EU Space Data from Galileo, EGNOS and Copernicus will be key enablers of this transformation, by facilitating reliable and robust positioning information and harmonised images of the fairways and environment, needed for safe and green autonomous operations.

The need for highly accurate, resilient positioning is agreed for operations like: navigation in narrow fairways, bridge passing, waterways locks, auto-mooring and simultaneous berthing operations. Further automation (with no human in the loop) would welcome additional features that will be provided by Galileo differentiators, not leveraged yet, such as authentication and integrity in the position.

The definition of autonomous operation may rely on robust images of the area to be navigated. Today, operators and manufacturers rely on diverse sources of such data that lead to a non-harmonised approach. However, Copernicus images will ensure a homogeneous Union approach, supporting the safe integration of simultaneous autonomous operations as well as integration with manned traffic. The preparatory action shall be focused on:

—attendance to existing working groups addressing solutions for autonomous vessels, including different public/private platforms and interviewing key industrial stakeholders, such as shipping associations, port operators, relevant maritime and inland waterways authorities;

—contribution to standardisation work within CESNI (Comité Européen pour l’Élaboration de Standards dans le Domaine de Navigation Intérieure);

—identification of the user requirements for the safe navigation in inland waterways where autonomous, remotely piloted and manually piloted vessels will co-exist;

—definition of concept of operations and positioning performance needs for different operations of autonomous vessels;

—identification of main challenges to be overcome to ensure safe operation and resilient positioning;

—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 in inland waterways navigation taking advantage of the three-dimensional synergies between satellite-based navigation, imagery and telecom;

—identification of the possible actions at national, regional and local level to boost business development, and support SMEs/start-ups to deliver EU Space based solutions to realize the future Union autonomous vessels capability for inland waterways;

—prototyping of onboard equipment that uses Galileo differentiators to address the main needs not covered so far by existing equipment, with focus on the use of Galileo authentication to prevent spoofing or use of fake signals, preventing accidents. Equipment prototypes developed within this pilot project should be based, when available, on existing commercial off-the-shelf components;

—design of a safety case with Copernicus images to define the waterways to be tested;

—analysis of how much information is needed to be transmitted to have updated inland electronic navigational charts and the minimum speed of communication to guarantee a safe operation, including whether the vessel needs to download the information of the fairway in the port or can do while navigating;

—implementation of several demonstrations along selected inland waterways where it is expected that in the future autonomous vessels will coexist with manually piloted vessels. The aim is to demonstrate feasibility and added value in line with the Commission guidelines on Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS).

The vessels in the demonstration shall be equipped at least with:

—High-end GNSS receivers that include Galileo authentication and EGNOS.

—High-bandwidth communication means to:

—download the information from Copernicus related to the fairway;

—download the information of the hull contour of all the vessels navigating in the same inland waterway;

—send to the monitoring centre all the sensors information;

—receive from the monitoring centre control inputs in case that there is the need to remotely operate the vessel.

—Contribution to draft a new standard for minimum requirements for EU Space Data to guarantee safe autonomous vessel navigation in inland waterways in support of future regulatory initiatives.

Remarks

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

Buildings are responsible for approximately 40% of Union energy consumption and 36% of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions because of their energy consumption. However, over their whole life-cycle they consume more energy than this. It is estimated that the life-cycle GHG emissions of buildings currently add up to something closer to 50% of the Union total, but there is no precise figure at Union level.

Therefore, the concept of the ‘whole life-cycle carbon’ of a building should be used to fully consider the total amount of operational and embodied carbon emissions throughout its life-cycle. It comprises four main phases: production, construction process, operation and end of life.

There is data available on emissions from industries related to construction (e.g. manufacture of steel and glass), however, this is only one part of the picture and other approaches are also relevant to fully comprehend the GHG emissions of buildings. Examples include urban mining and reuse of construction products, more efficient use of built spaces, action to lengthen the service life of buildings, and optimal use of low carbon materials. Without understanding the precise scale of the issue across the whole construction ecosystem, it is difficult to formulate effective policy responses, which would achieve maximum GHG reductions in a cost-effective manner.

There are various sources of potential data that could enable a study to calculate an estimate of embodied emissions of buildings at Union level. Typically, such a calculation would require estimates of the volume of construction work carried out, which materials have been manufactured and used in construction, which building types have been constructed/renovated, floor areas and heights/volumes built, how far the materials have been transported to the site. But the sources of such data are disparate, and nobody has carried out such calculations at Union level or in the vast majority of Member States. The use of reference building typologies would greatly aid such calculations, and also enable modelling of scenarios that are based on typical buildings.

The aim: this preparatory action aims to devise and put into practice a methodology to gather new and existing data on the embodied emissions of the Union building stock.

The preparatory action will make use of reference building typologies to model:

—a complete picture of the current embodied GHG emissions of the Union building stock; and

—the impact of scenarios of increased activity, such as accelerated rates of renovation and uptake of more circular approaches in construction.

The preparatory action will make use of various sources of data available from existing national initiatives, and assess the usefulness of other data sources. Examples of such sources include the EU Building Stock Observatory, the European Construction Sector Observatory, Eurostat, national data (for example on housing and construction output), information contained in Energy Performance Certificates (e.g. construction characteristics, dates of construction/renovation, building floor area/dimensions), and research work including new surveys where necessary.

Expected outcome:

—The data gathered on the embodied emissions of the Union building stock will provide a basis for future interventions, including legislation, in the fields of resource efficiency, energy and climate policies, as well as creating a valuable resource for further research.

—The preparatory action will develop a methodology to integrate and make use of existing data sources on buildings embodied carbon, identify gaps and collect new data sources, enabling much needed comparability and interoperability of data.

—It will thus provide new data on the GHG emissions embodied in the various life-cycle phases of buildings, for each Member State across the Union’s building stock.

Contribution to the Union legislation:

—The preparatory action will greatly contribute to the European Green Deal and its objectives of reducing GHG emissions in the building sector.

—This preparatory action will feed into the Renovation Wave action ‘Developing a 2050 whole life-cycle performance roadmap to reduce carbon emissions from buildings and advancing national benchmarking with Member States’, which is due by 2023.

—The Construction Products Regulation, the Waste Framework Directive, and the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive will benefit from the results of this preparatory action.

—New legislation to specifically tackle whole life-cycle emissions of Union buildings could be foreseen in the future.

Remarks

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

In spite of the substantial efforts of the Commission and of the Parliament to disseminate information and best practise on keeping pigs with intact tails, routine tail docking is still practised in most Member States, in violation of Council Directive 2008/120/EC of 18 December 2008 laying down minimum standards for the protection of pigs (OJ L 47, 18.2.2009, p. 5) (Pigs Directive). To make progress towards compliance with the provisions of the Pigs Directive, it is of uttermost importance to reliably and cost-efficiently monitor the levels of tail docking and tail lesions in all pig farms. Such data will be extremely useful for advisory, benchmarking an potentially enforcement purposes. The automatic detection of pig tail length and lesions at the slaughterhouse provides the most promising tool for uniform and fair monitoring of tail condition across slaughterhouses and Member States. Several slaughterhouses and Member States are interested in adopting automated systems to score pig tail length and damage at slaughter, but return on investment has so far not been perceived as high enough, especially as there is no system ready for commercial application.

This preparatory action will consist of a joint effort between researchers, governments, industry partners and NGOs across Member States, to achieve a validated, harmonised and fair system of tail length and lesion assessment by automatically measuring lesions at the slaughterhouse. It will consist of the following work packages: a) developing, calibrating and testing an automated system based on the analysis of camera footage in slaughterhouses characterised by different conditions and docking levels; b) developing the software to connect the system to the ICT system of the participating slaughterhouses, and converting the data automatically into reports; c) validating the system and comparing the outcomes to other data sources, such as visual assessments by trained assessors; d) assessing the functionality and impact of the system (including the costs) by discussing the outcomes with relevant stakeholders and e) piloting the system in practise, in the first instance as an aid for farmers to further refine their farm management so as to prevent tail biting and avoid routine tail docking.

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

The objective of the preparatory action is to support the leverage of new technologies to improve market surveillance activities, also with the view to overcome the challenges posed by new technologies and e-commerce. Building on the pilot project "Assessing the challenges and opportunities for market surveillance activities in relation to new technologies and digital supply chain" and its final study, the aim of this preparatory action is to help developing technologies, including artificial intelligence, that have the highest potential to support market surveillance authorities in their daily tasks. One example is the developing of a product tracking compliance control tool, allowing market surveillance authorities to digitally obtain the product information needed to perform their inspections by using a scanning system reading the product ID. The preparatory action can also help financing the development of ecommerce surveillance systems.

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

The scope of this preparatory action is to prepare proposals with a view to the adoption of future actions for creating the basis for a future tourism common policy, building on the work being done in the context of the pilot project for quality of tourism accommodation.

A comprehensive European tourism policy must be developed supporting the creation of the European Tourism Union. This policy shall facilitate tourism to align with the Digital Agenda and the European Green Deal.

To create the basis for a tourism common policy the preparatory action will explore options to develop different instruments as the followings: data basis for policymakers, sharing good practices, technical and administrative support for tourism SMEs, diversification of the European tourism product such as cultural and sustainable tourism, agrotourism, wildlife tourism, ecotourism, common rules for overtourism a crisis management mechanism, harmonising the national rules and legislation for all tourism activities including skills and qualifications, an European travel guarantee scheme, promoting the European brand in third countries

The actions include:

—development of a tourism agenda based on the lessons drawn from deficiencies uncovered by the COVID-19 pandemic;

—establishment of a code of good practices relating to hotels star rating systems;

—increasing the consumers awareness on the inconsistencies between the hotel star rating systems and between the star rating and the quality of the services;

—a common framework for online accommodation platforms related to the volume and format of the information provided by the stake holders;

—a common framework for online accommodation platforms in order to allow consumers to combine the ratings and reviews and to compare different hotels;

—an online tool to combine customer reviews and star ratings;

—the establishment of a shared framework of criteria and procedures for a hotel star rating system stars at Union level;

—the creation of a multi-stakeholder platform to allow customers to evaluate the quality of the offered services based on consumers review and rating schemes.

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

The Tourism of Tomorrow Lab (To of To Lab) aims at creating the ‘European business intelligence Centre for Tourism’. It is a public and private European partnership of regions, destinations, tech travel providers, travel companies and other agents. A cooperation platform among destinations and for European tourism stakeholders with data providers (big data, intermediaries).

Since the outbreak, this project is even more necessary in the situation of managing the pandemic impacts and recovery of tourism as well as the design of the post-pandemic tourism regeneration. Having the correct tools to assess the impact of COVID-19 on the tourism sector, will allow destinations to prepare possible scenarios to be expected. Once the destinations understand the different situations ahead, it is useful to test the evolution of the main tourism origin markets and quickly detect signs of reactivation at a global level, national, regional or even local level.

Decision making process already integrates traditional data, however, still in a very limited way (for initial diagnosis, for a specific policy action, for a final analysis). Moreover, big data, involves high cost of many of the solutions available, requires a technical infrastructure and a high skilled technical team, not only for aggregating the great amount of data to be readable, but also data analysts that are able to make sense of this data. Big data is fragmented and requires an important normative work of conceptualization and measurement.

Most DMOs are engaged into (commercial) relationship with big data players. The Tourism of Tomorrow Lab will complement and enrich these relations. Many different big data solutions are being implemented, but due to their cost, they are just ‘one -time’ experience, and many times they are not used to solve a real problem or to ask a specific question.

This preparatory action will support aggregation of fragmented data to produce reliable information in a coherent manner, so this data can be used for evidence-based policymaking.

As such, the To of To Lab will deliver services as a common data department for any destination involved in a cooperative manner. It will offer space for cooperative competition. It will not be a data warehouse where destinations can obtain any kind of big or traditional data, but a place where traditional data and big data make sense together in order to solve real life problems, to adapt to the European Green Deal, European Climate Law, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and to become climate neutral by 2050.

Furthermore, the report on establishing a Union strategy for sustainable tourism adopted in March 2021 by the European Parliament asked for a European Agency for Tourism in the long-term and a short-term solution – creation of a tourism department in one of the existing executive agencies. The aim, among others, is to provide the Union and its Member States with data to allow them to implement informed strategies. This preparatory action is a first phase for the implementation of this objective. It is also in line with the European Data Strategy and the call for the Commission to incorporate tourism in the governance framework for common data spaces.

Thus, the preparatory action will consist of making possible to launch To of To Lab operationally:

1. Recruiting the team;

2. Gathering the users – investors and other public private players across DMOs and travel-tech players;

3. Ensuring the systematic connection with official statistic bodies to insert To of To Lab methodology in the Sustainable Tourism Measurement principles and ETIS already well established;

4. Creating a common methodology searching coherence and supporting destinations monitor SDG and European Green Deal;

5. Implementing the methodology through a pilot exercise involving destinations and using real data.

Remarks

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

A significant amount of public investment is spent through public procurement, and e-procurement was beneficial in fighting fraud, resulting in savings for all parties, increased transparency, and simplified and shortened processes. In this context, the creation of a European framework for enhancing transparency in public procurement would be a crucial step forward. Such a framework could be implemented through the Tenders Electronic Daily (TED) website, which already allows access to public procurement notices and could become a valuable tool to analyse and expose procurement data (e.g. values of contracts awarded per country, per company, by sector of activity, etc.; number of bids per procedure; information about subcontracting, namely towards third countries).

This preparatory action will focus on improving data normalization, accessibility and transparency:

—retrieving, processing and appropriately storing data contained in the notices published, for improved search and generation of predefined and customised reporting;

—implementing user-friendly, clear and self-explanatory visualisation of relevant data in TED, using graphics, dynamic tools and machine translation;

—further automating exchange and validation of data between national authorities and TED in order to limit discrepancies and errors, reduce red tape and facilitate reuse;

—privileging the use of normalised information, i.e. predefined lists of values rather than free text descriptions, and promote the use of key identifiers, e.g. buyer, seller;

—collecting expertise to find patterns and define rules to be used in building automated expert systems for infringement/fraud detection based on TED data;

—gathering best practices regarding automatized data exchange in the procurement workflow within and between Member States, in cooperation with Member States administrations;

—promoting innovative projects to increase the completeness, accuracy, accessibility and readability of TED data.

Remarks

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 scientific-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 scientific-based methodology. The Commission should also ensure that any contractors with existing or potential professionally conflicting interests are excluded from the procurement process.

With a view to contributing to Europe’s digital sovereignty and to a European Public Sphere, this preparatory action adapts existing technological tools and develops new solutions in order to create platforms capable of giving European citizens improved access to reliable information from across Europe.

Platforms should have the potential to extend the reach of participating news media providers by deploying embedded technical tools that include translation modules, e.g. text-to-text, speech-to-text and speech-to-speech, AI-based technologies, sophisticated search engines, and/or content recommendation algorithms. Furthermore, a user identification system provides citizens with cross-device access as well as a personalised browsing experience.

In the framework of this preparatory action, broadcasters and publishers cooperate with technology developers to craft user-friendly solutions. These solutions can be applied to other content genres, e.g. educational, sports, entertainment, and integrated into different digital applications, e.g. (re) player apps or news apps. Drawing on existing AI-based and open-source technologies, the use of algorithms is guided by the principle of maximum transparency: users are informed about why they see what they see.

Editorial propositions are based on the concept of networked newsrooms that draw together a diversity of perspectives from national news desks across Europe. The newsrooms focus on themes or stories with a pan-European resonance, ensuring that coverage adopts a constructive or solutions-based approach. Transparent and agreed rules covering editorial and legal aspects as well as technical workflows provide a clear cooperation basis.

The projects are based on common values including respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and human rights, thereby providing European citizens with a safe online environment. They can easily be complemented by other projects implemented by broadcasters and publishers, e.g. documentary collections or specific programmes for young audiences, while other stakeholders that subscribe to the same public service values, such as museums and libraries, may be invited to join the initiatives.

The project or projects may also include:

—an internal fact-checking process;

—a social media strategy;

—a public service algorithm which will act as the cornerstone for content recommendation systems.

Remarks

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

According to the 2019 World Press Freedom Index compiled by Reporters without Borders, the Union as well as the Balkans registered the second biggest deterioration in its regional score measuring the level of constraints and violations on press freedom. The 2019 report shows that the number of countries in the Union and the Balkans regarded as safe, where journalists can work in complete security, continues to decline.

With the deterioration of press and media freedom in Member States and candidate countries for several years in a row showing a worrying trend, it is crucial to continue providing concrete protection to journalists including fact-finding, advocacy, monitoring, informing the European public and awareness-raising through the pan-European rapid response mechanism on violations of media freedom.

The right to freedom of expression needs strong defence to protect democracy strengthen public discourse and guarantee an enabling environment for investigative and independent journalists.

The pan-European response mechanism on violations of press and media freedom will continue to make violations visible and provide practical help to journalists under threat, in collaboration with European, regional and local stakeholders in the field of media freedom. The practical help must encompass tools to protect journalists under threat: providing direct advice and legal support as well as offering shelter and assistance so they can continue their profession. Delegates will be sent to affected countries and advocacy will support fighting impunity. Monitoring of the situation will provide reliable and comprehensive information to the public as well as European authorities. This will help promoting awareness raising and allow early warnings. Instruments will be adjusted according to individual needs on a case-by-case basis. This unique toolkit contained in the rapid response mechanism will prevent further violations and will improve press and media freedom.

The pan-European response mechanism has been funded over the last two years in the context of a pilot project. Building on the success of the pilot project and to ensure its continuity, the pan-European response mechanism should now continue as a preparatory action.

The objective of this action is to strengthen the capacity of the European creators, in particular scriptwriters to create cutting edge fiction series that can attract cross-border audiences, and to nurture a community of European talents are able to work across national and linguistic borders.

It should enable European audiovisual talents, in particular scriptwriters, to co-write scenarios of television series at European level, thereby creating opportunities throughout their career across Europe. The aim is to foster the collaborative creation process focusing on the co-writing practices within an intercultural context, bringing creators from different nationalities together.

The focus of the present action should be on the co-writing of television series with international appeal. This action will not finance the development of scripts by producers, which is currently funded under the MEDIA programme. The skills component included in this action is an integral part of the project, and focuses on improving the quality of scripts produced by audiovisual talent.

Remarks

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

The work of independent media organisations and investigative journalists is crucial to reveal wrongdoing throughout the Union and beyond its borders, including money laundering and corruption. Quality investigative journalism requires proper tools and resources. Yet, investigative journalists are extremely vulnerable professionals with very limited resources.

The aim of this preparatory action is to create an emergency support fund for investigative journalists and media organisations to improve press and media freedom and to prevent violations thereof by supporting the production of quality independent journalistic content in the public interest, including through cross-border cooperation.

This preparatory action builds on the previous pilot projects on cross-border investigative journalism fund, which aimed to ensure continued trust in independent media sources and the protection of journalists across the Union by providing Union funding for collaborative investigative journalism in the public interest based on an expert jury model

The preparatory action promotes pan-European, collaborative projects which contribute to bottom-up change by modifying incentives for ethical and trusted journalism through innovative tools and processes. Such projects are particularly important in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis when the capacity for dedicated support of news organisations is limited.

Funding from this budget line should be accessible to professional organisations and associations, consortiums, editors, publishers as well as freelancers provided that they meet adequate criteria. To meet the needs of media organisations and to safeguard media independence, funding should inter alia be provided to cover expenditure for fact-finding missions, for training and tools contributing to the development of investigative capabilities, for TV-related investigative projects, for the subscription to software programmes correlating data and databases, and for the production of expensive documents required to support an investigation. Subject to strict conditions, the preparatory action should also provide funding to cover a bail and/or the legal fees of investigative journalists concerned if they are clearly related to a past or ongoing investigation.

When necessary, this pan-European emergency support fund could also be used as a model for longer-term core funding for media organisations and investigative journalists under threat. It should be flexible enough to adjust to changing needs to ensure that they can perform their work safely and independently, thus ensuring the sustainability of media and a greater diversity of journalistic sources in Member States and candidate countries.

The assessment of applications and the selection of beneficiaries from Union funding through this preparatory action will be carried out by an independent expert jury based on clear and transparent criteria to ensure a high degree of trust in beneficiaries and audiences.

Remarks

The preparatory action will fill the existing gap in communicating Europe to young Europeans, by creating a truly transnational public media sphere and better portraying the sense of togetherness, which is at the heart of European identity, reflected in a common culture, similar lifestyle and shared values. Existing policy is predominantly aimed at the bolstering and digital transformation of a struggling media sector severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The stated aims of the upcoming Media Freedom Act include strengthening media independence and diversity. Support for the growth of media spaces generating European public exchange however remains limited, despite its importance and lack of tested viable initiatives.

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 that gather thought-provoking journalistic content around topics relevant to their daily lives, empowering them to compare perspectives from across Europe and discuss and discover how their interests link to interests of young Europeans in other Member States.

The content will deal with topics that are of proven interest or concern for young Europeans, such as education and skills, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, gender and diversity as well as sustainability and climate change, a European peace and security architecture, foreign policy, democracy, and will be put into context in order to make it compelling and appealing to the target group. The European perspective is created by comparing and contrasting regional experiences and points of view on matters of pan-European importance. The aim is to address relevant topics of pan-European importance and at the same time give a forum to local 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 strengthen the existing preparatory action, which stimulates 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 and realities and greater engagement of Europeans towards European values and ideas, the action and subsequently contributes to a more active civil society. The Action Plan to support recovery and transformation of the media and audio-visual sectors aims not least to promote collaborative and cross-border journalism, relying on the sharing and networking of best practices in this domain. The preparatory action is of great benefit to that aim, as it supports such best practices relating to cross-border cooperation and to innovation in the media sector.

Aligning with a multitude of Union objectives as well as building on existing initiatives, this preparatory action will fill the gap of decisively supporting the European Public Sphere by driving innovation in the European media space to stimulate a lasting debate on a common future among European youth.

CommitmentsPaymentsCommitmentsPaymentsCommitmentsPayments
850 000212 500

Remarks

The objective of this preparatory action is to provide European fact-checking organisations with a concrete package of resources that can help them identify and debunk disinformation campaigns about climate and environmental disasters that have effects on public opinion. The proposal will build on 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 CNECT/2020/3029907 Integrity of Social Media) and the work of the European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO-Smart 2019/1087). The project must go beyond easy-to-debunk claims like "climate change doesn’t exist" that are increasingly residual, and focus on more complex narratives that are on the rise, such as disinformation about proposed solutions (especially those carried out by individuals that imply a change of habits) or that science behind them is unreliable.

The proposal will:

—assess the challenges and needs of Union fact-checkers with regard to crisis response and collect learnings from recent crises;

—provide fact-checkers with a toolkit-a package of resources-that can help them boost their crisis-readiness and response:

—provide training materials and courses on effective crisis communication

—provide guidance on how to quickly build a community of experts and practitioners on a crisis topic

—provide a mapping of the available fact-checking networks in the Union and a guide on how to leverage them effectively in a crisis situation

—provide visualisation and other technical tools, e.g. showing spread of disinformation on a map, that can act as ready-made building blocks for fact-checkers websites and communication tools (with due consideration for existing tools and avoiding duplication)

—test the package of resources with a group of European fact-checkers using climate change and related crises as an example.

Natural and semi-natural grasslands are amongst the richest European ecosystems in terms of plant, insect and bird species diversity. Many Natura 2000 sites throughout the Union have been legally designated to maintain and restore this extraordinary grassland biodiversity and the ecosystem services that flow from them. Grasslands often depend on dedicated management regimes like mowing or grazing. Despite a high level of protection on paper and several successful conservation and restoration initiatives at local level, the biodiversity of Natura 2000 grasslands has suffered further declines over the last few decades. The key to turning this around is to maintain the necessary mowing and grazing practices, with low fertilizer input, at a landscape scale as part of sustainable and economically viable farming system.

The evolution of grassland cover in Natura 2000 is increasingly well monitored in certain parts of the Union. This information is still highly heterogeneous and often not easily accessible to the public. Moreover, data on relative effectiveness of Natura 2000 site management is largely lacking. The strengthened earth observation capacities of the Union through its COPERNICUS programme offer unprecedented observation potential to map and monitor land cover with high accuracy. The current Copernicus catalogue of land cover products for Natura 2000 is only updated once every six years and offers mostly generic land cover information that is predominately used by experts. As such, the potential to apply these observation capacities for grassland monitoring and management is not yet fully exploited.

First-phase: pilot project `Copernicus for Natura 2000`

In late 2019, the pilot project `Copernicus for Natura 2000` (COP4N2K) was launched to use Copernicus technology to better monitor Natura 2000 sites. This project created an automated model system for tracking the evolution of grassland cover in Europe’s Natura 2000 network on a yearly basis, producing detailed land cover maps since 1992 (when the Habitats Directive was adopted). Efforts are being made to ensure that a large audience, including Member States` administrations, protected area managers, land users and the general public, will be able to access and understand the provided grassland trends and its related indicators. All data are being made public through a dedicated online Viewer `EU Grassland Watch`.

Second-phase: preparatory action `EU Grassland Watch`

The first-phase pilot project was to come to an end in late-2021 with promising results. An interim evaluation made clear that a second-phase pilot support would be required to assure timely follow-up for full implementation and accessibility. The preparatory action will focus on four main items that need significant further development:

(1) The available resources in the first phase only covered half of all Natura 2000 sites with significant grassland occurrence. Scaling up will allow the completion of the (historical) picture of EU Natura 2000 grasslands.

(2) The quality of the available maps will benefit from recent improvements in identification of different grassland types and higher spatial resolutions.

(3) Information on the current grassland cover will also be further refined at site level by linking-up with existing administrative databases, such as national Land Parcel Identification Systems (LPIS). This will help inform appropriate site management.

(4) The project will help bring the geospatial information on grasslands closer to decision makers and other key stakeholders by (a) an interactive and regularly updated public website; and (b) a series of direct interactions (e.g. webinar training, site visits, etc.) with selected actors at national or regional levels. These initiatives could bridge technological gaps by helping stakeholders to understand the benefit of these tools and use the available information, and in turn share their practical needs to inform future developments.

The fully functional `EU Grassland Watch` can help the Union and its Member States to better monitor biodiversity, the pressures it faces and the sustainability of Natura 2000 protected grasslands. The increased transparency and accessibility will not only help to prevent future negative impacts, but also to reverse historical declines by identifying priority areas for grassland restoration.

OTHER ANNEXES

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 2023 the proportionality factor is estimated at 2,93% (on the basis of 2021 figures), i.e. 2,74% for Norway, 0,15% 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 2,48% (on the basis of 2021 figures), i.e. 2,32% for Norway, 0,13% for Iceland and 0,03% 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 2023 is estimated at about EUR 738 512 616 in commitment appropriations. The EEA EFTA States will also share in the administrative expenditure directly linked to the implementation of these policies.

EXTERNAL ASSIGNED REVENUE UNDER THE EUROPEAN UNION RECOVERY INSTRUMENT

NextGenerationEU is an exceptional and temporary recovery financing mechanism. The financing is enabled by the Own Resources Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053, which empowers the Commission to borrow up to EUR 807 billion (or EUR 750 billion in 2018 prices) on behalf of the Union, for recovery measures linked to commitments over the period 2021-2023. EUR 421,1 billion (EUR 390 billion in 2018 prices) will be made available to Member States under the Recovery and Resilience Facility for non-repayable support, repayable support through financial instruments or for provisioning for budgetary guarantees and related expenditure. A further EUR 391,0 billion (EUR 360 billion in 2018 prices) will be made available in the form of loans of which EUR 225,6 billion in 2023. The necessary appropriations to cover the cost of the NextGenerationEU are provided in sub-heading 2b Resilience and Values.

Contributions from NextGenerationEU in 2023 are planned to provide an additional EUR 113,9 billion in commitment appropriations, whereas payments are estimated at EUR 130,7 billion. The majority of payments (EUR 109,2 billion, based on current information) reflect the estimated payments for the Recovery and Resilience Facility. However, the process of submission of national recovery and resilience plans by the Member States is currently ongoing, which means that the disbursement profiles to be set in the relevant Council implementing decisions may differ.

This annex provides the full overview of all budget lines and amounts concerned as laid down in point 41 of the Annex to the Interinstitutional Agreement.

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.

3. Effect on the budget

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 shall be limited to the margin available under the Union’s own resources for payment appropriations.

This item constitutes the structure for the guarantee provided by the Union. It will enable the Commission to service the debt should debtors default.

On 21 June 2013, the Council decided to amend Implementing Decision 2011/77/EU by extending the average loan maturity and providing the possibility to extend instalment maturities at the request of Ireland (Implementing Decision 2013/313/EU).

On 21 June 2013, the Council decided to amend Implementing Decision 2011/77/EU by extending the average loan maturity and providing the possibility to extend instalment maturities at the request of Portugal. In addition, measures to be adopted by the country in line with specification in the Memorandum of Understanding were specified (Implementing Decision 2013/323/EU).

On 22 October 2013, the Council decided to amend Implementing Decision 2011/77/EU by extending the availability of the financial assistance granted to Ireland (Implementing Decision 2013/525/EU).

3. Effect on the budget

Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the budget only if the guarantee is activated in case of default. At 31 December 2021, the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 46 800 000 000.

A first instalment of EUR 300 000 000 was disbursed in June 2021 and the remaining second instalment of EUR 300 000 000 was disbursed in May 2022.

3. Effect on the budget

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), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 31(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). 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 212(1) of the Financial Regulation the provisions made to cover the financial liabilities arising from financial instruments, budgetary guarantees or financial assistance shall be held in a common provisioning fund (CPF).

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

—one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from each relevant compartment of the CPF to maintain its target amount,

—activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

The macro-financial assistance of up to EUR 1 000 000 000 under Decision (EU) 2022/1201 of the European Parliament and of the Council and of up to 5 000 000 000 under Decision (EU) 2022/1628 of the European Parliament and of the Council constitutes a financial liability for the Union within the overall volume of the External Action Guarantee under 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).

The total amount of up to EUR 6 000 000 000 of Union’s exceptional macro-financial assistance loans to Ukraine under the two Decisions benefits from 9 % of paid-in provisioning available for macro- financial assistance loans under the External Action Guarantee. The amount of provisioning shall be financed from the financial envelope programmed for macro-financial assistance under Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council for a total amount of EUR 540 000 000. That amount shall 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). In addition, during the period from 2021 to 2027, following request by Ukraine, the interest rate subsidy for the loans under these Decisions shall be borne by the financial envelope referred to in Article 6(2), point (a), first indent, of Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

The Commission also agreed in July 2022 to the repurposing and disbursement of a further EUR 1 590 000 000 of the European Investment Bank loans to Ukraine guaranteed under the External Lending Mandate 2014–2020 (ELM). The Union budget applies the same precautionary approach to those exposures as it does to the macro-financial assistance loans under the covered MFAs. Decision (EU) 2022/1628 of the European Parliament and of the Council therefore applies a 70 % provisioning rate to the repurposed ELM loans of EUR 1 590 000 000 as well as to any further disbursements of ELM loans to Ukraine, financed from the Union budget.

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, Council 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). 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 shall constitute external assigned revenue in accordance with Article 21(2), point (a)(ii), of the Financial Regulation.

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), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 31(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). 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,

—activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

From 1 January 2007, loans with Bulgaria and Romania cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 of 22 December 2004 amending Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28)) and are therefore covered directly by the Union budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

Pursuant to the Council Decision of 8 March 1977, the Union guarantees loans to be granted by the European Investment Bank as part of the Union’s financial commitments towards the Mediterranean countries.

3. Description

Under the Financial Protocols concluded with Mediterranean third countries, global amounts are laid down for loans to be granted by the European Investment Bank from its own funds. The European Investment Bank (EIB) grants the loans for purposes which may contribute to the economic and social development of the countries in question (transport infrastructures, ports, water supply, production and distribution of energy, agricultural projects and promotion of small and medium-sized businesses).

On 14 April 1997, the Council decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in the following Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, Gaza and the West Bank. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 7 105 000 000, of which EUR 2 310 000 000 is for the abovementioned Mediterranean countries. It covered a period of three years beginning on 31 January 1997 (with a possible extension of six months).

The EIB is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

On 29 November 1999, the Council decided to grant a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans for projects for the reconstruction of the earthquake-stricken areas of Turkey. The guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 600 000 000 and covered a period of three years beginning on 29 November 1999 (with a possible extension of six months).

The EIB is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This percentage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

On 22 December 1999, the Council decided once again to grant the EIB the Community guarantee against losses resulting from loans for projects carried out in the following Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, Gaza and the West Bank. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2000/24/EC is equivalent to EUR 19 460 000 000. The guarantee is limited to 65 % of the total value of the appropriations made available plus all the related amounts. It covers a period of seven years from 1 February 2000 to 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period the loans granted by the EIB had not reached the abovementioned total values, the period was automatically extended by six months.

On 4 December 2000, the Council decided to establish an EIB special action programme in support of the consolidation and intensification of the EC-Turkey Customs Union. The value of those loans is limited to an overall ceiling of EUR 450 000 000.

Decision 2005/47/EC restructured the Mediterranean regional mandate to exclude Cyprus, Malta and Turkey, which were included in the South Eastern Neighbours mandate.

Decision 2006/1016/EC grants a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects outside the Community for loans in the following Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Egypt, West Bank and Gaza, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya (eligibility to be decided by the Council), Morocco, Syria and Tunisia. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2006/1016/EC is equivalent to EUR 27 800 000 000 and covers the period beginning on 1 February 2007 and ending on 31 December 2013 with a possible extension of six months. The Community guarantee is restricted to 65 %.

Decision 2006/1016/EC has been replaced by Decision No 633/2009/EC.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000 (EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU granted an EU guarantee to the EIB against losses under financing operations supporting investment projects outside the Union (pre-accession countries, neighbourhood and partnership countries, Asia and Latin America, South Africa) throughout the period 2014-2020. It has been amended by Decision (EU) 2018/412. The maximum ceiling of the EIB financing operations, as per the amending Decision, is not to exceed EUR 32 300 000 000 broken down into regional ceilings and sub-ceilings as well as into:

(a) a maximum amount of EUR 30 000 000 000 under a general mandate, of which EUR 1 400 000 000 is earmarked for projects in the public sector directed towards the long-term economic resilience of refugees, migrants, host and transit communities, and communities of origin as a strategic response to addressing root causes of migration; and

(b) a maximum amount of EUR 2 300 000 000 under a private-sector lending mandate for projects directed towards the long-term economic resilience of refugees, migrants, host and transit communities, and communities of origin as a strategic response to addressing root causes of migration.

The EU guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregated outstanding amount.

4. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 31(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). 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,

—activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default,

—the granting, in a series of cases, of interest-rate subsidies of 2 % in non-repayable aid, subject to the overall amounts laid down by the Financial Protocols.

Loans with new Member States cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 of 22 December 2004 amending Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28)) and are therefore covered directly by the Union budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

In response to a call made by the Council on 9 October 1989, the Board of Governors of the European Investment Bank (EIB) decided on 29 November 1989 to authorise the Bank to provide loans from its own resources to finance investment projects in Hungary and Poland for a total amount not exceeding EUR 1 000 000 000. These loans are granted to finance investment projects which satisfy the Bank’s usual requirements for loans from its own resources.

On 14 May 1991 and 15 March 1993, the Council decided that this guarantee should be extended to any loans that the EIB might make in the other countries of central and eastern Europe (Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and Romania) over a period of 2 years up to a maximum of EUR 700 000 000.

On 13 December 1993, the Council decided to renew for 3 years the Community guarantee for EUR 3 000 000 000 in EIB loans for projects in Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Albania.

The budget guarantee covers all aspects of debt-servicing (repayment of capital, interest, related costs) in connection with these loans.

On 14 April 1997, the Council decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in Albania, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 7 105 000 000, of which EUR 3 520 000 000 is for the abovementioned countries of central and eastern Europe. It covers a period of 3 years beginning on 31 January 1997. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period was automatically extended by six months.

On 19 May 1998, the Council decided to grant a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans for projects in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 150 000 000 for a period of 2 years beginning on 1 January 1998. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period was automatically extended by six months.

On 14 December 1998, the Council decided to amend Decision 97/256/EC in order to extend the Community guarantee to the EIB to loans for projects in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is EUR 100 000 000 for a period of two years beginning on 22 December 1998. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period was automatically extended by six months.

The EIB is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

On 22 December 1999, the Council decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in Albania, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2000/24/EC is equivalent to EUR 19 460 000 000. The guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. It covers a period of seven years beginning on 1 February 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period was automatically extended by six months.

The EIB is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This percentage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

On 7 November 2000, the Council decided to extend the guarantee granted by the Community to the EIB to loans for projects in Croatia.

On 6 November 2000, the Council decided to extend the guarantee granted by the Community to the EIB to loans for projects in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

Decision 2005/47/EC restructured the Mediterranean regional mandate to exclude Cyprus, Malta and Turkey which were included in the South Eastern Neighbours mandate.

Decision 2006/1016/EC grants a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects outside the Community for loans in the following candidates: Croatia, Turkey, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and potential candidate countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Kosovo. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2006/1016/EC is equivalent to EUR 27 800 000 000 and covers the period beginning on 1 February 2007 and ending on 31 December 2013 with a possible extension of 6 months. The Community guarantee is restricted to 65 %. This Decision has been replaced by Decision No 633/2009/EC.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000 (EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU granted an EU guarantee to the EIB against losses under financing operations supporting investment projects outside the Union (pre-accession countries, neighbourhood and partnership countries, Asia and Latin America, South Africa) throughout the period 2014-2020. It has been amended by Decision (EU) 2018/412. The maximum ceiling of the EIB financing operations, as per the amending Decision, is not to exceed EUR 32 300 000 000 broken down into regional ceilings and sub-ceilings as well as into:

(a) a maximum amount of EUR 30 000 000 000 under a general mandate, of which EUR 1 400 000 000 is earmarked for projects in the public sector directed towards the long-term economic resilience of refugees, migrants, host and transit communities, and communities of origin as a strategic response to addressing root causes of migration; and

(b) a maximum amount of EUR 2 300 000 000 under a private-sector lending mandate for projects directed towards the long-term economic resilience of refugees, migrants, host and transit communities, and communities of origin as a strategic response to addressing root causes of migration.

The EU guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregated outstanding amount.

4. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 31(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). 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,

—activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

Loans with new Member States cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 of 22 December 2004 amending Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28)) and are therefore covered directly by the Union budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

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), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 31(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). 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 of 9 % of the guaranteed operations,

—activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

3. Description

In accordance with the provisions of Decision 95/207/EC, the Union will guarantee European Investment Bank (EIB) loans to South Africa up to a maximum total amount of EUR 300 000 000.

The budget guarantee covers all the debt-servicing (repayment of principal, interest and ancillary costs) in connection with these loans.

On 14 April 1997, the Council decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in the Republic of South Africa. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 7 105 000 000, of which EUR 375 000 000 is for the Republic of South Africa. It covered a period of three years beginning on 1 July 1997 (with a possible six-month extension).

The EIB is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

On 22 December 1999, the Council decided to renew the Community guarantee to the EIB for loans for projects in the Republic of South Africa. The guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2000/24/EC is equivalent to EUR 19 460 000 000. It covers a period beginning on 1 July 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007. As at the end of that period, the loans granted by the EIB had not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period was automatically extended by six months.

The EIB is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This percentage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

Decision 2005/47/EC was the basis for a restated and amended contract of guarantee between the European Community and the EIB signed in Brussels on 30 August 2005 and in Luxembourg on 2 September 2005 setting up a guarantee restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums.

Decision 2006/1016/EC grants a Community guarantee to the EIB against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects outside the Community for loans. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available for all countries under Decision 2006/1016/EC is equivalent to EUR 27 800 000 000 and covers the period beginning on 1 February 2007 and ending on 31 December 2013 with a possible extension of six months. The Community guarantee is restricted to 65 %. That Decision has been replaced by Decision No 633/2009/EC.

Decision No 1080/2011/EU, which entered into force on 30 October 2011, increased the aggregate amount of credits disbursed and guarantees provided under EIB financing operations from EUR 25 800 000 000 to EUR 29 484 000 000 (EUR 2 000 000 000 for financing of climate change operations and EUR 1 684 000 000 for enhancing EIB risk operations).

Decision No 466/2014/EU granted an EU guarantee to the EIB against losses under financing operations supporting investment projects outside the Union (pre-accession countries, neighbourhood and partnership countries, Asia and Latin America, South Africa) throughout the period 2014-2020. It has been amended by Decision (EU) 2018/412. The maximum ceiling of the EIB financing operations, as per the amending Decision, is not to exceed EUR 32 300 000 000 broken down into regional ceilings and sub-ceilings as well as into:

(a) a maximum amount of EUR 30 000 000 000 under a general mandate, of which EUR 1 400 000 000 is earmarked for projects in the public sector directed towards the long-term economic resilience of refugees, migrants, host and transit communities, and communities of origin as a strategic response to addressing root causes of migration; and

(b) a maximum amount of EUR 2 300 000 000 under a private-sector lending mandate for projects directed towards the long-term economic resilience of refugees, migrants, host and transit communities, and communities of origin as a strategic response to addressing root causes of migration.

The EU guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregated outstanding amount.

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 Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 (78) 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 Council Regulation (EU) 2020/672 of 19 May 2020 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 should be 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 Regulation (EC) No 332/2002 (79). 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 if the guarantee is activated in case of default. As at 31 December 2021 the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 89 637 000 000.

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. As a result, the depth of its socioeconomic impact is extraordinarily uncertain.

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. 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. Repayments of the principal of the funds is planned to start before the end of the MFF 2021-2027 period, with a minimum amount, insofar as amounts not used for interest payments due under the borrowing allow it, with due regard to the procedure set out in Article 314 TFEU. All liabilities are scheduled to be fully repaid at the latest by 31 December 2058. This will avoid placing immediate pressure on Member States’ national finances and enable them to focus their efforts on the recovery. 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 MFF 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 NGEU, the Union has a headroom that is 0,6 percentage points higher than the standard one, for the period until 2058.

XV.   BLENDED FINANCE AND EUROPEAN GUARANTEE OPERATIONS TO PARTNER COUNTRIES

1. Legal basis

Commission Decision C(2022)3529 of 7 June 2022 establishing the Investment Windows for the European Fund for Sustainable Development Plus.

2. Description

Upon entry into force of the Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and the 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 and repealing Regulation (EU) 2017/1601 and Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 209, 14.6.2021, p. 1), the European Fund for Sustainable Development Plus, as part of the External Action Guarantee, may support financing and investment operations in partner countries.

3. Effect on the budget

Pursuant to Article 212(1) of the Financial Regulation the provisions made to cover the financial liabilities arising from financial instruments, budgetary guarantees or financial assistance shall be held in a common provisioning fund (CPF))

The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from each relevant compartment of the CPF to maintain its target amount.

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.

All other amounts are converted at the rate applicable at 31 December 2022.

Column 3 ‘Initial amount paid up to 31 December 2022’: with reference to 1986, for example, this column shows the cumulative total of all amounts received up to 31 December 2022 under loans signed in 1986 (Table 1), including refinancing (which produces some duplication).

Column 4 ‘Amount outstanding at 31 December 2022’: these are net figures, with no duplication as a result of refinancing operations. They are obtained by subtracting from the column 3 figure the cumulative total of repayments made up to 31 December 2022, including repayments in respect of refinancing operations (total not given in the tables).

Column 7 = column 4 – column 5.

MFA 2011: following the loan agreement signed by Montenegro on 9 February 2010 pursuant to Council Decision 2008/784/EC of 2 October 2008 establishing a separate liability of Montenegro, and reducing proportionally the liability of Serbia with regard to the long-term loans granted by the Community to the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro (formerly the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia) pursuant to Decisions 2001/549/EC and 2002/882/EC (OJ L 269, 10.10.2008, p. 8), the loans initially granted to Serbia and Montenegro in 2001, 2003 and 2005 have been re-initiated with a virtual starting date in 2011 in order to implement the splitting of the countries.

NOMENCLATURE CHANGES

Introduction to the nomenclature

The nomenclature for the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) 2021-2027, as decided following the adoption of Budget 2021, allows for clearer, more informative and better aligned links between the MFF headings and programmes.

Since the 2021 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 the Article 49 of the Financial Regulation.

Two complementary nomenclatures

The main nomenclature of the Commission is complemented by two nomenclatures under the annexes 1 and 2 of its section:

—In accordance with Article 65 of the Financial Regulation, Annex 1 set 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 2022 budget and the 2023 budget.

Remarks

The main objective of the pilot project will be to investigate and analyse the possibilities for a creation, under the current framework, of a European Diplomatic Academy. This pilot project will establish a robust evidence base to decide on options as regards the possibilities for a creation, under the current framework, of a European Diplomatic Academy providing training, including in support of preparation for possible entry into the EEAS and Union delegations, through a developed teaching of courses and subjects:

—A study of existing national, and where appropriate, international academies and their programmes with the aim of envisaging what a European Diplomatic Academy would be able to add to this landscape. This can also entail an analysis of existing academic institutions such as the European University Institute (EUI), the College of Europe and other structures such as the European Security and Defence College (ESDC) and the European School of Administration (EUSA). This study will also analyse the potential set-up and delivery model of such an academy as well as its cost.

—Several projects can be run in parallel to the study in order to test possible features of the European Diplomatic Academy in practice and evaluate their impact and inform the study, such as a European Diplomatic Academy pilot course / dry run consisting of a two-month residential pilot programme for a selected group of 60 recruits and trainee diplomats from Member States and Union institutions; and ‘Erasmus for Diplomats’ allowing some 60 young diplomats in their first years of service to spend up to two months in the Foreign Service of another Member State or in the EEAS, including a randomly selected Union delegation. This pilot course of ‘Erasmus for Diplomats’ can also explore the possibility for EEAS staff to spend up to two months at headquarters in Member States different from the one of their nationality. If these pilot courses are successful, they can lead to a one-year academic programme.

The pilot project will be able to finance the study, under the actual conditions, of the creation of such a European Diplomatic Academy, and the running of these two pilot courses as described above.

Extending the pilot project by one year will provide a more solid basis, thereby ensuring sustainability of the project. The aim of the second phase of the pilot project will be two-fold:

—Through an extension of the study, provide more analysis and options for the creation of a European Diplomatic Academy by providing a training needs analysis, and by looking in particular into target groups of a future academy, including the possibility of those interested in becoming Union diplomats in the future who are not diplomats of a Member State. The study should also analyse the preparation for possible entry into the EEAS and Union delegations.

—Organise a second pilot academic year (following on the one foreseen in the first phase of the pilot project), in order to incorporate its results, as of the dimension of the participation of diplomats of Member States in the future European Diplomatic Academy. Participants should, in principle, as during the first phase, be around 60 recruit and trainee diplomats from Member States and Union institutions.

With this second year, the two elements of the pilot project, i.e. the study and the pilot academic programme as mentioned above, should deliver the necessary robust evidence base and analysis concerning the legal and administrative set-up, delivery model, governing bodies and budgetary requirements for a future European Diplomatic Academy.
