A.   INTRODUCTION AND FINANCING OF THE GENERAL BUDGET

INTRODUCTION

The general budget of the Union is the instrument which sets out and authorises the total amount of revenue and expenditure 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 shall 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 budget is established in compliance with the principle of transparency, ensuring sound information on the implementation of the budget and the accounts.

The budget presents appropriations and resources by purpose (activity-based budgeting), 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.

The expenditure authorised by the present budget totals EUR 168 688 122 110 in commitment appropriations and EUR 153 566 205 917 in payment appropriations, representing a variation rate of + 1,50 % and of + 3,42 % respectively by comparison with the 2019 budget.

Budgetary revenue totals EUR 153 566 205 917. The uniform rate of call for the VAT resource is 0,30 % (except for Germany, Netherlands and Sweden for which the rate of call for the period 2014-2020 has been fixed at 0,15 %) whilst that for the GNI resource is 0,6507 %. Traditional own resources account for 14,43 % of the financing of the budget for 2020. The VAT resource accounts for 12,34 % and the GNI resource for 71,98 %. Other revenue for this financial year is estimated at EUR 1 928 450 061.

The own resources needed to finance the 2020 budget account for 0,89 % of the total GNI.

The tables below set out step by step the method used to calculate the financing of the 2020 budget.

Remarks

The common organisation of the market in the sugar sector provided that sugar, isoglucose and inulin syrup producers had to pay basic and B production levies. These levies were intended to cover market support expenditure. At present amounts entered under this article are a consequence of the revision of past established levies. Levies for the marketing year 2007/2008 till the marketing year 2016/2017 are entered under Article 1 1 7 of this chapter as a ‘production charge’.

Figures are net of collection costs.

Remarks

This article is intended to record revenue from the outstanding sugar storage levies as Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (OJ L 178, 30.6.2001, p. 1) abolished the storage levy.

It also covers the outstanding amounts due pursuant to Article 5 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 65/82 of 13 January 1982 laying down detailed rules for carrying forward sugar to the following marketing year (OJ L 9, 14.1.1982, p. 14) when the obligation to store sugar carried forward is not complied with, and the amounts due in accordance with Council Regulation (EEC) No 1789/81 of 30 June 1981 laying down general rules concerning the system of minimum stocks in the sugar sector (OJ L 177, 1.7.1981, p. 39) when the general rules concerning the system of minimum stocks in the sugar sector are not complied with.

This article is also intended for the recording of income charged by new Member States in the event of non-elimination of sugar stocks considered surplus within the meaning of Commission Regulations laying down transitional measures in the sugar sector by reason of the accession.

Figures are net of collection costs.

Legal basis

Council Decision 2014/335/EU, Euratom of 26 May 2014 on the system of own resources of the European Union (OJ L 168, 7.6.2014, p. 105), and in particular point (a) of Article 2(1) thereof.

Remarks

This article is intended to record revenue from the production charge levied on undertakings producing sugar, isoglucose or inulin syrup in accordance with Article 128 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.

The production charge was collected and declared by Member States for the last time under the general budget of the Union for 2017 following the end of the sugar quota system in marketing year 2016/2017 on 30 September 2017. Any incoming revenue under this article would only concern possible regularisations of certain files, for which estimates are not possible in advance.

Figures are net of collection costs.

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 and other revenue in any particular year. By implication, the GNI-based resource ensures that the general budget of the Union 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 (VAT-based payments, 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’ gross national income for financial 2020 year is 0,6507 %.

The budgetary imbalance correction mechanism in favour of the United Kingdom (UK correction) was introduced by the European Council in Fontainebleau in June 1984 and the resulting own resources decision of 1985.

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) No 608/2014.

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 27 02 01 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’.

Remarks

Under Article 7(1) of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89, Member States are to send the Commission a statement of the total amount of the VAT resources base for the previous calendar year before 31 July.

Each Member State is debited with an amount calculated on the basis of that statement in accordance with Union rules and credited with the 12 payments actually made during the previous financial year.

Any corrections to the abovementioned statements resulting from Commission controls in accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89 or/and any changes to the GNI of previous financial years that have an effect on the capping of the ‘VAT’ base will lead to adjustments of the ‘VAT’ balances.

The Commission shall inform the Member States of the amounts resulting from this calculation before 1 February of the year following that in which the data for the adjustments was supplied.

Legal basis

Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89 of 29 May 1989 on the definitive uniform arrangements for the collection of own resources accruing from value added tax (OJ L 155, 7.6.1989, p. 9).

Remarks

Article 3 of the Protocol on the position of Denmark and Article 5 of the Protocol on the position of the United Kingdom and Ireland, annexed to the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), 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 gross national income and its components from the preceding year, supplied by the Member States in accordance with Article 2(2) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1287/2003 of 15 July 2003 on the harmonisation of gross national income at market prices (OJ L 181, 19.7.2003, p. 1).

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.

Legal basis

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), and in particular Article 11 thereof.

Protocol on the position of Denmark, annexed to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 3 thereof, and Protocol on the position of the United Kingdom and Ireland in respect of the area of freedom, security and justice, annexed to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 5 thereof.

Remarks

Decision 2003/76/EC stipulates that the Commission is entrusted with winding up the financial operations of the European Coal and Steel Community which are still in progress upon expiry of the ECSC Treaty.

Pursuant to Article 4 of that Decision, net revenue from the investment of available assets will constitute revenue in the general budget of the Union earmarked for a specific purpose, namely financing research projects in sectors related to the coal and steel industry by the Research Fund for Coal and Steel. Unused revenue and appropriations deriving from this revenue still available on 31 December in any given year, as well as amounts recovered, shall be carried over automatically to the following year. Those appropriations may not be transferred to other budget items.

The net revenue available for financing research projects in year n + 2 appears in the balance sheet of the ECSC in liquidation for year n, and after the liquidation process has been completed will appear as assets in the balance sheet of the Research Fund for Coal and Steel. This financing mechanism took effect in 2003. Revenue coming from 2018 will be used for research in 2020. In order to reduce as far as possible the fluctuations that movements in the financial markets could cause in the financing of research, a smoothing arrangement is applied. The amount of net revenue expected to be available for research in 2020 is EUR 40 400 000.

In accordance with Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, 72,8 % of the fund’s appropriations will be for the steel-related sector and 27,2 % for the coal-related sector.

In accordance with point (b) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation, revenue will be used to provide additional appropriations under Chapter 08 05 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’.

Legal basis

For budget year 2020, it is provisionally estimated that an amount between EUR 2,5 and 3,0 million will be needed in order to finance the contribution to the expenditure of INEA’s staff and administration incurred as a result of the Agency’s role in the management of the Innovation Fund financed from budget item 34 01 06 01.

This will allow the preparation of a first call for proposals in 2020, expected to be launched at the beginning of the second half of 2020, in the range of EUR 1,0-1,5 billion.

The necessary appropriations for this call would be generated by the revenue arising from the auctioning as of January 2020 of the first tranche of the 50 million emission allowances allocated to the Innovation Fund from the market stability reserve and by unspent amounts from the previous NER300 fund. Payments for selected projects from the first call are expected to be made from 2021 onwards.

Remarks

This article is intended to record capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted from the appropriations in Chapters 22 02 and 22 04 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’ to Mediterranean third countries.

It also comprises 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/risk capital were granted at a time 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

To foster an effective dialogue among Members, the scientific community and journalists — especially in relation to current scientific and technological developments and issues — the European Parliament can benefit from a dedicated and authoritative structure to support discussion, training and dissemination of knowledge in this field. A European Science-Media Hub has been established for that purpose, and its operation will be overseen by the European Parliament’s Panel for the Future of Science and Technology (STOA Panel).

This appropriation also covers the cost of organising the relevant activities and expenses (including travel expenses, accommodation and catering) in connection with invitations to journalists, stakeholders and other experts to cover the activities concerned.

This appropriation, which is intended to enhance activities at the interface between the European Parliament, the scientific community and the media, will cover the costs of the European Science-Media Hub, in order specifically to promote networking, training and knowledge dissemination, by for example:

setting up and maintaining networks at the interface between the European Parliament, the scientific community and the media,

organising seminars, conferences and training courses on current scientific and technological developments and issues and on the nature and effectiveness of science journalism,

harnessing expert information and analysis from academia, the media and other sources in the field of science and technology for the benefit of policy-makers and citizens,

making European Parliament research and other relevant material in the field of science and technology more widely available by written, audiovisual and other means,

developing techniques and methods for increasing the ability to identify and disseminate trustworthy sources in the field of science and technology,

Remarks

Decision 2003/76/EC stipulates that the Commission is entrusted with winding up the financial operations of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) which are still in progress upon expiry of the ECSC Treaty.

Pursuant to Article 4 of that Decision, net revenue from the investment of available assets will constitute revenue in the general budget of the Union earmarked for a specific purpose, namely financing research projects in sectors related to the coal and steel industry by the Research Fund for Coal and Steel. Unused revenue and appropriations deriving from this revenue still available on 31 December in any given year, as well as amounts recovered, shall be carried over automatically to the following year. Those appropriations may not be transferred to other budget items.

The net revenue available for financing research projects in year n + 2 appears in the balance sheet of the ECSC in liquidation for year n, and after the liquidation process has been completed will appear as assets in the balance sheet of the Research Fund for Coal and Steel. This financing mechanism took effect in 2003. Revenue coming from 2018 will be used for research in 2020. In order to reduce as far as possible the fluctuations that movements in the financial markets could cause in the financing of research, a smoothing arrangement is applied. The amount of net revenue expected to be available for research in 2020 is EUR 40 400 000.

In accordance with Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, 72,8 % of the fund’s appropriations will be for the steel-related sector and 27,2 % for the coal-related sector.

In accordance with point (b) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation, revenue will be used to provide additional appropriations under Chapter 08 05 of the statement of expenditure in this section.

Legal basis

Council Decision 2003/76/EC of 1 February 2003 establishing the measures necessary for the implementation of the Protocol, annexed to the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the financial consequences of the expiry of the ECSC Treaty and on the Research Fund for Coal and Steel (OJ L 29, 5.2.2003, p. 22).

For budget year 2020, it is provisionally estimated that an amount between EUR 2,5 and 3,0 million will be needed in order to finance the contribution to the expenditure of Innovation and Networks Executive Agency’s staff and administration incurred as a result of the Agency’s role in the management of the Innovation Fund financed from budget item 34 01 06 01.

This will allow the preparation of a first call for proposals in 2020, expected to be launched at the beginning of the second half of 2020, in the range of EUR 1,0-1,5 billion.

The necessary appropriations would be generated by the revenue arising from the auctioning as of January 2020 of the first tranche of the 50 million emission allowances allocated to the Innovation Fund from the market stability reserve and by unspent amounts from the previous NER300 fund. Payments for selected projects from the first call are expected to be made from 2021 onwards.

Remarks

This article is intended to record capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted from the appropriations in Chapters 22 02 and 22 04 of the statement of expenditure in this section to Mediterranean third countries.

It also comprises 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. Those loans and risk capital were granted at a time the 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

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 by subsequent Council and Commission decisions. It was last approved by Commission Decision C(97) 2241 of 15 July 1997 and presented in the Commission communication on 12 July 2006 (COM(2006) 379 final, OJ C 245, 12.10.2006, p. 5).

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 including monitoring of fiscal positions,

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, macro and micro-based analysis of the combination of measures and coordination of economic policies,

the external aspects of the EMU,

macroeconomic developments in the euro area,

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

coordination with financial institutions and analysis and development of financial markets, and borrowing and lending operations involving Member States,

the facility providing financial assistance for Member States’ balance of payments and the European financial stabilisation mechanism,

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

deepening and expanding the EMU,

purchase of equipment, software development, maintenance and related training for the protection of the euro against counterfeiting.

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 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 Member States’ 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, audiovisual 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 Commission, when implementing this article, should take duly into account the outcomes of the meetings of the Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI).

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 final) and it reports regularly to the relevant committee of the European Parliament on the implementation of the programme and on planning for the coming year.

This appropriation is also intended to cover or to temporarily pre-finance costs incurred by the Union in concluding and carrying out operations linked with the borrowing and lending operations for macro-financial assistance, Euratom, balance of payment and European financial stabilisation mechanism.

Any revenue entered in Article 5 5 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with point (a) of Article 21(3) of the Financial Regulation.

The corresponding amount is estimated at EUR 1 660 000.

Remarks

Article 122(2) TFEU provides for the possibility of granting Union financial assistance to a Member State in difficulties or seriously threatened with severe difficulties caused 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 this stabilisation mechanism is to be limited to the margin available under the Union’s own resources for payment appropriations.

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

In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. In that 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

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 article only covers the grant element of MFA operations.

Appropriations under this article will also be used to cover costs incurred in relation to MFA operations, and in particular: (i) costs incurred to conduct operational assessments in the beneficiary countries to obtain reasonable assurances on the functioning of administrative procedures and financial circuits, (ii) costs related to the implementation of the ‘Better Regulation’ guidelines, in particular for ex-post evaluations of MFA operations, and (iii) costs to cover comitology requirements.

The Commission will inform the budgetary authority regularly of the macro-financial situation of the beneficiary countries and will report extensively on the implementation of MFA on a yearly basis.

Any revenue entered in Article 5 5 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with point (a) of Article 21(3) of the Financial Regulation.

Pursuant to Council Decision of 8 March 1977, the Union guarantees loans made by the European Investment Bank (EIB) in the context of the Union’s financial commitments in respect of the Mediterranean countries.

The European Parliament and the Council were to decide in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure on the activation in whole or in part of the optional mandate. The Union guarantee covers EIB financing operations signed during the period beginning on 25 July 2014 and ending on 31 December 2020 with an extension of six months if the European Parliament and the Council have not adopted a new decision granting the Union guarantee to the EIB against losses under its financing operations outside the Union before the end of 2020. Following a mid-term review, Decision No 466/2014/EU was amended by Decision (EU) 2018/412. The optional mandate of EUR 3 000 000 000 was activated and an additional private-sector lending mandate of EUR 2 300 000 000 was established 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. Consequently the maximum ceiling increased to EUR 32 300 000 000. A new guarantee agreement in accordance with the amended Decision was signed between the Commission and the EIB on 3 October 2018.

In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. In that 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.

This article constitutes the structure for the guarantee provided by the Union. It will enable the Commission, if necessary, to service the debt (repayment of principal, interest and other costs) should a debtor default on the loans granted by the EIB.

This appropriation is intended to provide the financial resources for payments to the Guarantee Fund for external actions in accordance with its provisioning mechanism and for payments of operational costs linked to the management of the fund and the external evaluation to be carried out in the context of the mid-term review of the European Investment Bank (EIB) external mandate.

Assigned revenue received under Articles 6 4 1 and 8 1 0 or Item 6 6 0 0 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations under this Article, in accordance with Article 22(1) of the Financial Regulation.

Further to the creation of the 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 through Decision (EU) 2018/412, external assigned revenue for the Guarantee Fund for external action shall also arise from the pricing of the EU guarantee for operations under that private-sector lending mandate. Relevant provisions are set out in the guarantee agreement signed between the Commission and the EIB on 3 October 2018.

The European Investment Fund (EIF) implements the SME window of the European Fund for Strategic Investments, which supports loan and equity financing of SMEs and mid-caps. The EIF is entitled to receive management fees for the implementation of the SME window. As provided for in Regulation (EU) 2015/1017, as amended by Regulation (EU) 2017/2396, fees due to the EIF are to be primarily met by revenues from the resources in the EFSI guarantee fund and the EFSI. However, to the extent that those revenues are not sufficient to cover the fees due to the EIF, those fees are to be covered by the general budget of the Union.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover payments in respect of commitments remaining to be settled from previous years.

Even though the end of the commitment period has been reached, the facilities have to be operated for several years during which time payments will be needed for investments and in order to honour guarantee obligations. Therefore reporting and monitoring requirements will continue until the end of the facility periods.

In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. In that case, Article 12 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom on the system of the European Communities own resources (OJ L 130, 31.5.2000, p. 1) applies.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget of the Union.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates for participating in Union programmes and entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with points (e), (f) and (g) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenues and repayments generated on Trust Accounts entered in Article 5 2 3 of the statement of revenue will be returned to the general budget of the Union or transferred to the succeeding financial instruments under the Union equity instruments for research and innovation under Horizon 2020 or the Equity Facility for Growth under COSME, as the case may be, in accordance with the Financial Regulation and Regulations (EU) No 1287/2013 and (EU) No 1290/2013.

Remarks

For concentrated groups of European citizens, housing deprivation has been a constant for decades. Roma are one of the minority groups in Europe with the highest rates of poverty and social exclusion. Despite long-standing efforts, including the EU framework for national Roma integration strategies (NRIS) for 2020, introduced as long ago as in 2011, tackling the socio-economic exclusion of and discrimination against Roma remains an objective.

The implementation of NRIS has hitherto largely relied on grant funding from European structural and investment funds (ESIF). The use of ESIF funds has unfortunately been limited by the lack of political commitment and capacity of national and regional authorities in charge of managing the funds. Scarce use has been made of financial instruments to date, such as loans and guarantees, to promote the socio-economic inclusion of marginalised Roma communities.

This pilot project is part of the Union’s efforts to:

Support social innovation and new, holistic approaches to social service provision, the empowerment of disadvantaged groups and delivering transformative solutions for key social challenges, in particular Roma inclusion;

Stimulate cross-sectoral collaborations and social impact partnerships (public-private and civic engagement) as a new avenue for public value creation;

Pioneer the use of new financial instruments and blended support (financial instruments, grant and capacity building) for projects with high social externalities;

In the longer term, support the development of the social investment market and social impact interventions through testing/refinement of a model which could be scaled up across Europe under, for example, the future single Union investment programme (InvestEU).

The InvestEU programme could be a game changer, with financial allocation to support social infrastructure (namely housing, health and education facilities), social innovation and social impact schemes. The next integrated investment programme of the Union could offer a significant opportunity to make progress in achieving the inclusion of Roma.

Scope of the pilot project:

This project will develop a housing model solution and improved life opportunities for a selected group of marginalised Roma communities. The target beneficiaries will typically reside in unregulated/illegal outskirt settlements and face adversity as regards access to income/gainful employment opportunities and to other inclusion opportunities.

In essence, this is a multiphase model which involves the preparation (in terms of financial literacy, motivation, job assistance and life skills, and construction assistance) of Roma families on the path to home ownership and empowerment.

Activities will therefore include:

The provision of financial education, job assistance and life skills training for selected participants from a disadvantaged background who are enrolled in the programme;

Support for savings schemes for each family, for about one year, to enable loan payments to be made for construction materials for new homes;

Engagement with public authorities for the allocation of land for the intervention, and providing training to public authorities so that they can implement and manage inclusion/desegregation programmes and further provide social services to the local community.

This multiphase model will trial innovative approaches combining financial instruments (loans, guarantees, etc.), grants and capacity building assistance.

The pilot may be carried out in partnership with an implementing organisation. Under a single grant contract with the Commission, the selected implementing partner would channel the support via:

A guarantee for de-risking portfolios of social housing loans to targeted beneficiaries, accounting for some 25 % of the budget; and

Capacity building grants for NGOs providing coaching/mentoring services to municipalities, enabling the purchase of apartments/houses, constructions (provision of land and necessary infrastructure) and local Roma communities for financial literacy and construction training, employment and civic education, accounting for some 75 % of the budget.

Activities will be closely aligned with and complement current pilot projects for Roma inclusion (ROMACT), cohesion policy funding tools which could be mobilised as a result, as well as relevant desegregation guidance and holistic approaches to local development principles.

The pilot project will test and develop integrated social finance models as part of a multicountry, pan-European approach, possibly as a pilot for a combined financial/advisory product under the InvestEU Programme post-2020. This should complement cohesion funding support and reinforce the objectives of social inclusion, desegregation, access to education, employment support and regional development. It could also provide models for replication under social outcome contracting mechanisms.

After being tested at multiple sites with substantial Roma communities, it will expand to different locations within the countries with substantial Roma communities (e.g. East Slovakia, East Czechia, Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary) and be replicated in an urban context.

Activities will be closely aligned with and complement current pilot projects for Roma inclusion (ROMACT) and additional Cohesion policy funding tools which could be mobilised. The pilot project will also contribute to policy development in the area of homelessness and housing exclusion and support preparation of the post-2020 EU framework for NRIS.

Target groups:

Marginalised Roma families, as one of the most excluded groups in Europe, whose fate embodies one of the most acute social challenges in central and eastern European countries and, indeed, the Union;

Public authorities, financial intermediaries and social impact actors (foundations, service providers).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to strengthen the competitiveness of enterprises, in particular that of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and to encourage entrepreneurship and foster the creation and growth of SMEs.

The implemented measures will include:

networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders,

market replication projects,

policy analyses, development and coordination with participating countries,

policies to foster entrepreneurship,

information sharing, dissemination, awareness raising and advisory services to increase SME’s competitiveness and help them participate in the single market and beyond,

support to joint actions of Member States or regions, as well as other measures under the programme for the competitiveness of enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (COSME).

The Union will provide support to activities such as the Enterprise Europe Network and entrepreneurship promotion. It will also support projects concerned with the first applications or market replication of techniques, practices or products (e.g. new business concepts for consumer goods) of Union relevance that have already been technically demonstrated with success but, owing to residual risk, have not yet significantly penetrated the market. Those projects will be designed to promote wider use within the participating countries and facilitate market uptake.

Projects will also seek to improve the framework conditions including through capacity building in clusters and other business networks notably with regard to support SME internationalisation in order to ensure that Union enterprises are competitive and sustainable, including in the tourism sector, by supporting coherence and consistency in implementation, as well as informed policy-making at Union level. In addition, projects will be put in place to support the implementation of the Single Market Strategy and the Start-up Initiative. Support actions, directly linked to the achievement of these objectives are also considered for funding: meetings (including workshops), studies, information and publications and participation in study groups.

Sustainable tourism activities will receive a special focus with initial priority given to soft mobility, cycling networks, eco-tourism and nature protection. Accessibility for all, particularly for people with reduced mobility and for socially disadvantaged people is also of high importance in this context.

The Union will coordinate, promote and support actions for sustainable tourism, such as:

preservation of long-term sustainable tourism resources through protection of natural, cultural, historical and industrial heritage,

coordination and support for access to sustainable tourism information and services for less-advantaged citizens living in poverty, as well as for persons with reduced mobility,

cross-border coordination of European cycling networks, together with rail and long-distance bus information and services.

The ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ programme aims to encourage European entrepreneurship, the sharing of knowledge and best practices, and the creation of valuable networks, partnerships, companies and jobs.

Due to the currently difficult economic situation it is indispensable to support European enterprises, in particular young innovative start-ups and female entrepreneurs, and to foster entrepreneurship by assigning enough funds to programmes like the COSME programme. It is particularly important to provide support and incentives for the most modern and innovative sectors, such as the sharing economy and the digital economy. The Union will provide support for young entrepreneurs in these sectors and develop and introduce instruments that will allow innovative start-ups to compete with rivals from third countries on world markets. Support will also be provided to increase SMEs’ participation in public procurement.

In particular the programme ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ has been very successful, efficient and effective in contributing successfully to fighting unemployment and supporting robust start-ups across Europe.

The financial means for the ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ programme are maintained in particular due to the following reasons:

the programme helps fostering European entrepreneurship, the sharing of knowledge and best-practices as well as creating valuable networks and partnerships,

the programme is very successful and has shown an increasing number of participants over the last years which is expected to increase further,

the programme effectively tackles the problem of unemployment as it helps people without work to become self-employed and existing SME to create jobs and increase their turnover by expanding or internationalising their business,

the number of applications exceeds by far the possibilities the Commission can fulfil with the financial means currently available.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, those amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with points (b) (e) and (f) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates for participating in Union programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations, according to the same ratio as between the amount authorised for expenditure on administrative management and the total appropriations entered for the programme in accordance with points (b), (e) and (f) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation.

The corresponding amount is estimated at EUR 4 815 000.

Remarks

This appropriation is to be used to improve access to finance small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), including companies of female entrepreneurs, in the form of equity and debt, in their start-up, growth and transfer phase.

A loan guarantee facility (LGF) provides counter-guarantees, direct guarantees and other risk sharing arrangements for debt financing which will reduce the particular difficulties that viable SMEs face in accessing finance either due to their perceived higher risk or their lack of sufficient available collateral and for securitisation of SME debt finance portfolios.

An equity facility for growth (EFG) allows investments in risk capital funds which invest in SMEs in the expansion and growth stage, whilst taking a gender-sensitive and non-discriminatory approach, and in particular in those operating cross-borders. It will be possible to invest in early stage funds in conjunction with the equity facility for RDI under Horizon 2020. In cases of joint investments in multi-stage funds, investments will be provided on a pro-rata basis from the EFG of the COSME programme and the equity facility for RDI under Horizon 2020. Support from the EFG will be (a) either directly by the European Investment Fund (EIF) or other entities entrusted with the implementation on behalf of the Commission or (b) by funds-of-funds or investment vehicles investing across borders.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, those amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with points (b), (e) and (f) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contributions from candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates for participating in Union programmes entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations, according to the same ratio as between the amount authorised for expenditure on administrative management and the total appropriations entered for the programme in accordance with points (b), (e) and (f) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation.

Any repayment from financial instruments pursuant to Article 209(3) of the Financial Regulation, including capital repayments, guarantees released and repayment of the principal of loans, paid back to the Commission and entered in Item 6 4 1 1 of the statement of revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 21(3) and Article 22(1) of the Financial Regulation.

The corresponding amount of assigned revenue is estimated at EUR 27 300 000.

Capitalising on the European Year of Cultural Heritage 2018, this action will showcase and promote the diversity and richness of European heritage and cultural manifestations (UNESCO World Heritage sites, music and food festivals, folklore and spirituality) as a reason to visit Europe, the continent of culture and creativity.

The activities carried out under this preparatory action could be linked to the theme of ‘Culture Europe - Promoting Europe’s treasures’, with individual countries, regions or macro-regions presenting their distinct heritage and cultural assets to a broad international audience.

The preparatory action builds on and continues the Destination Brand Europe pilot project, but it proposes an enlarged scope and an increased budget. The action will also include promoting less well-known but equally interesting locations and tourism sites, with the ultimate aim of diversifying the range of European destinations, creating new tourism products and supporting less developed regions.

VisitEurope.com, a portal developed with Union support, could be a suitable platform for promotional and marketing activities. Additionally, the ‘360° European Wonders’ app presented by the Commission in 2017 could be integrated into the promotional and marketing strategy.

Ultimately, the action will raise awareness around responsible and sustainable development as regards cultural heritage and the protection of resources for future generations.

The main objectives and actions include:

preserving Europe’s lead position among world tourist destination by promoting European cultural heritage;

developing and endorsing promotional and marketing channels (online and offline) that will enable destinations to maximise the reach of their tourism offer;

diversifying the range of European destinations by promoting less visible secondary destinations (so-called ‘hidden gems’) as new tourism products;

researching and identifying a number of well-developed and accessible alternative tourist destinations with high potential demand and appeal both internally and in overseas markets;

engaging with various stakeholders across Member States to raise the visibility of cultural heritage sites;

providing support to industry partners, especially SMEs in the hospitality and transport sectors, to develop tourism products that incorporate these alternative destinations into their travel packages.

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

The World Bridge Tourism pilot project was initiated in the 2015 budget. The main aim of the project was to ensure that Europe should benefit from world bridge tourism by increasing the GDP of the tourism sector. At the same time, it was to bring about significant economic growth, including the creation of sustainable employment opportunities.

The preparatory action focuses on China as the fastest-growing tourism source market in the world. As stated in the pilot project, Chinese tourists’ propensity to travel abroad is expected to continue rising in the coming decades. Beyond Asia and the Pacific, Europe is the largest destination region for Chinese travellers. As Europe has a prominent place on the Chinese ‘wish list’, it is necessary to think about how Member States could host Chinese tourists more effectively. This will involve mutual understanding and continuous and sustainable training of employees throughout Europe in the tourism sector.

The preparatory action will increase flows of Chinese visitors by facilitating business between European tourism providers and Chinese buyers.

2018 was EU-China Tourism Year, during the preparatory period for which the World Bridge Tourism project had a crucial role.

The main objectives and actions include:

identifying best practices and analysing the results of the pilot project;

continuing the awareness campaign among tour operators and agencies;

active involvement in the EU-China Tourism Year 2018;

enlarging the scope of the project by involving Chinese cultural institutes (e.g. the Confucius Institute) and other public outreach stakeholders;

increasing involvement of social networks and focusing on digitisation, and providing incentives for bringing tourist products and services into line with the needs of Chinese tourists, including the use of marketing tools (websites and flyers in Chinese) and promoting them on Chinese social networks (e.g. Weibo).

Knowledge and skills are crucial not only for the personal welfare of each citizen, but also for sustainable development and economic growth. It is therefore important to offer a perspective to people coming from countries in economic and social crisis, especially young people, so that they have an opportunity to create added value not only for themselves, but also for the general public.

It is therefore important to empower young migrants and refugees to gain access to knowledge and to develop skills they are able to use and leverage when they are back in their home countries.

This will make it possible for them not only to establish a livelihood, but also potentially to become entrepreneurs, build up their own businesses and create employment.

The core of this initiative will be targeted mentoring programmes from different organisations, such as civil protection and community services, as well as companies (including local suppliers). Elements of a dual-training system would help beneficiaries to identify the specific needs of organisations or companies on the ground.

The legal situation regarding the waiting period for taking up an economic activity differs considerably from Member State to Member State. To make the preparatory action a success, it will therefore also be necessary to conduct a review of current national legal frameworks and to identify best practices which could be promoted in order to speed up procedures, so that young migrants can take advantage of the proposed programmes as soon as possible upon arrival.

Industrial modernisation is critical to improving the Union’s competitiveness and is therefore an absolute cornerstone of its policy. In this regard, the ability of industrial companies not only to develop but also to absorb and successfully implement new technologies is crucial. However, this remains a big challenge for many companies.

Different stages can be identified in the process of developing and deploying new technologies. There is mounting evidence that market failure occurs at the demonstration stage (TRL 6-8) of the innovation process: between applied research, prototyping and market entry. Testing and validation of prototypes in an industrial environment and certifying new applications remain both very costly and highly uncertain. In many cases this prevents, or at least substantially delays, market uptake of very promising innovations from research and industry, including those previously financed by the Union. On the one hand, industrial companies very often do not have all the necessary equipment and skills to carry out further prototyping activities, validation tests, certification procedures, cost comparisons and other post-prototyping activities needed before full production and market launch. These activities are usually categorised as so-called ‘non-recurrent costs’ and contribute to what is commonly known as the ‘Valley of Death’. On the other hand, very few regions have all the demonstration capabilities in place to help companies carry out the full spectrum of post-prototyping activities in a specific technology domain.

There is a strong need and rationale to establish an inter-regional innovation structure with pan-European shared demonstration facilities (industry commons) accessible by industry and able to speed up technology deployment in and by industrial companies. Shared demonstration facilities can be established by connecting and upgrading the complementary facilities which already exist in the regions, or by creating new shared facilities if needed.

In the past, and in ongoing activities under Vanguard Initiative (VI) pilot projects (www.s3vanguardinitiative.eu), various regions have found that setting up ‘shared demonstration facilities’ usually involves a non-profitable component. This funding gap occurs when setting up shared facilities and meeting initial operating costs. Once this funding gap is closed, industrial demonstration activities can take place. If they are successful, companies can then upscale their production, generate revenues in the marketplace and hence generate growth and jobs. In order to speed up technology deployment and industrial modernisation, stronger public intervention is therefore needed to unlock innovation and growth potential. At the moment, there is no suitable cross-regional, pan-European instrument to support very much needed investments in innovation infrastructure.

In this context, this preparatory action will complement and further expand the ongoing activities under the VI and the Thematic Smart Specialisation Platform for Industrial Modernisation (TSSP IM). While the TSSP IM and its inter-regional partnerships, such as VI, are instrumental in detecting and initiating inter-regional collaboration for technology uptake, this action will support the development of investments, operations and services, and defray coordination costs for shared demonstration facilities serving a customer base of industrial organisations throughout Europe.

This preparatory action will be particularly important in generating input for the (re)designing of various Union policies, including innovation (Ninth Framework Programme), investment (European Fund for Strategic Investments) and cohesion policy. The action will identify the scope and limitations of existing funds and financial instruments for ultimately stimulating the uptake of market-creating technologies and the promotion of follow-up investments by the private sector, including through close or closer cooperation with industry associations, thereby providing useful input for policy makers.

This preparatory action will focus on the specific VI pilot project for shared demonstration facilities for ‘High Performance Production through 3D Printing’ (3DP). The 3DP pilot project is among the most advanced, but it faces a huge investment challenge for several of its industrial applications. 3D printing has also been identified as a disruptive technology significantly impacting a broad range of industrial sectors.

Specifically, the preparatory action will focus on the following activities:

(1)

setting up an operational platform of connected demonstration facilities between regions by, inter alia:

connecting demonstration facilities to form a virtual support platform;

monitoring the provision of know-how, equipment and services to industry, ensuring broad sectoral coverage;

if needed, expanding the network of connected facilities to improve industrial and/or geographical coverage;

setting up a network of accredited service providers throughout Europe (for support, training, certification, etc. within the networked demonstration facilities);

(2)

attracting industrial demonstration projects via the platform by, inter alia:

interacting with key stakeholders;

promoting the platform and identifying opportunities;

further developing 3DP demonstration cases and use cases, creating new value chains;

identifying the specific coordination costs and investment support needs;

communicating and working with a wider audience, including making use of the TSSP IM;

working on synergies between the relevant pilot project and related initiatives;

gaining specific knowledge on funding issues to address specific investment needs;

(3)

providing an overview of specific proposals for changes to Union policies, in consultation with the Commission.

For proper implementation and evaluation, a timeframe of three years (2018-2020) is needed, including an annual update of the roadmap by a strategy board that will also include Members of the European Parliament.

Remarks

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

This preparatory action will create a business-enabling network for SMEs to seize circular economy business opportunities. It will advance a new type of environmentally friendly industry, where the worthless is turned into valuable by making full use of all materials, including side flows and waste.

The major chemical-using industries, businesses and associated supply chains in different parts of Europe (notably in Finland, France, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom) attempt to create new business out of side flows and wastes. Side flows can be recovered and used as raw materials in new industries. By refining raw materials in the Union, most added value is created in the single market, thus benefitting European economies. This will create jobs and benefit the environment.

The Cir©Lean target group is export-orientated industrial service SMEs which are willing and able and have an international outlook. Cir©Lean will build a systematic, long-term business-enabling network for Union-based SMEs by utilising cross-border, cross-sector and cross-industry knowledge and by developing innovative circular economy business models. The action will help SMEs find ways to increase the value of (currently unidentified) waste and residues by turning them into valuable products to be sold in both the domestic and international markets. The action will enhance industrial symbiosis by increasing the degree of processing of residual waste and landfill and generate new residual waste business.

New business models will be created in cross-border, cross-sector and cross-industry Open Innovation Business workshops where SMEs, primary industries, business developers, educators, researchers, authorities and financiers pool their skills. The Sustainability Assessment Tool developed in Finland will be applied in this work. The workshops will contribute to the development of new knowledge for all participants, creating new commercial products and services that span national borders.

Approximately 20 SMEs will participate in the Cir©Lean preparatory action. As a milestone for the action, 100 SMEs will participate in professional development activities, and, as part of the action, they will gain new contacts and establish cross-border cooperation. When the action is completed, exports will increase and the number of SMEs with new business models will grow. New long-term and sustainable contacts and partnerships with permanent cooperation structures will be established as a result.

Cir©Lean will set up a circular economy business-enabling network that will continue after the preparatory action ends.

Youth unemployment remains a significant challenge for Member States. As of February 2018 it stood at 15,9 % in the EU28 and 17,7 % in the euro area. The aim of the initial pilot project was to contribute to reducing youth unemployment through the provision of worker co-operatives by establishing entrepreneurship and sustainable job opportunities for young people to both work in and own part of the company simultaneously, as well as establishing best practice in the area for the Union as a whole.

The pilot project was launched in the three Member States with the most experience in this field, and included objectives such as improving knowledge of the co-operative business concept, guiding students in implementing their own ideas and helping them start up businesses in the form of a co-operative, providing training and internships/apprenticeships in co-operatives and examining how to create synergies with related Union programmes.

The preparatory action continues to build on the impact of the pilot project in these three Member States and extends actions to other Member States still struggling with high youth unemployment, such as Greece and Spain.

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

Tourism is a key sector for economic development and job creation in Europe. Tourism bodies are in a never-ending dispute over a unified classification system for hotels, restaurants and other facilities. As the needs and expectations of consumers evolved, consequently stimulating supply in the hotel sector, it became essential to regulate this area of activity by adopting measures to protect the rights and interests of consumers.

However, consumers’ perceptions often do not match what they receive owing to insufficient and ineffective communication.

This project will draw up:

a framework for comprehensively mapping the existing public and private initiatives (star systems, certification schemes, etc.) for tourism that will harmonise the classification system in terms of accuracy and how up-to-date the information is, and will bring transparency and consistency to service quality evaluation and performance;

a framework for the content of information provided by travel agencies, tour operators, online booking sites and review sites; the information provided to consumers should be examined, compared and compatible with Union level criteria for the initiatives in question;

a framework for trans-national cooperation between public authorities and industries to improve the content of ‘terms and conditions’ and ensure a fair ‘agreement’ between the service provider and the tourist; the agreement should specify, among other things, the payment conditions and the rights of the tourist, especially in cases where the contracted services are not adequately performed;

the feasibility of establishing principles at Union level for tourism service quality, including Union competence, added value and technical viability.

One major objective of the Union institutions is to improve coordination of policy at Union and Member State level as regards promoting the use of ICT in education, training and learning systems. One condition for integrating ICT is to increase the availability and quality of connectivity to broadband internet services for schools and classrooms, especially in rural and low population density areas, by adopting dedicated policies.

The Commission has allocated resources for enhancing school connectivity to the internet, promoting policy coordination through various initiatives. One such initiative was set out in the Commission communication of 25 September 2013 entitled ‘Opening up Education: Innovative teaching and learning for all through new Technologies and Open Educational Resources’ (COM(2013) 654 final), which clearly stated that ‘Enhancing local ICT infrastructure (broadband, content, tools) is still needed in some parts of Europe...’ and that ‘Member States are investing in upgrading their national educational infrastructure (ICT, digital educational resources, broadband) but fragmentation and incoherence among Member States persists. On average, 93 % of EU students access the internet at home, but only 72 % have access to it at a place of education, sometimes not in the classroom.’

Innovation in the education sector remains a key priority for the Commission as is clearly stated in the Commission communication of 14 September 2016 entitled ‘Connectivity for a Competitive Digital Single Market — Towards a European Gigabit Society’ (COM(2016) 587 final). The European Parliament, in its resolution of 1 June 2017 on internet connectivity for growth, competitiveness and cohesion: European gigabit society and 5G (OJ C 307, 30.8.2018, p. 144), welcomed the ambitious plan to provide ultra-fast internet in primary and secondary schools, universities and libraries by 2025, in line with the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality. It also stressed that faster and better connectivity provides huge opportunities to enhance teaching methods, to foster research and to develop high quality educational services online as well as to create better opportunities for distance learning.

The European Parliament also emphasised that, in order for the gigabit target to have its full impact on Union economy and not to miss opportunities, it is important to close the digital divide and prevent the opening of new divides, and to this end funding opportunities should be explored by Member States and the Commission in support of the achievement for the main socio-economic drivers (schools, universities, public administrations).

In 2016, many schools in the Union still lacked broadband access (especially primary schools, 25 % of which had no broadband access or even no internet access at all). The main reasons for this are:

poor awareness among schools and local authorities of the technical options available to access broadband internet;

a limited number of dedicated, large national institutional support programmes;

lack of knowledge about possible funding options, including voucher schemes, and how to implement them.

In 2015, the Commission published a call for tenders for a feasibility study on the provision of satellite broadband for schools located in rural areas and not covered by any fixed wired or wireless broadband.

That study, called ‘Satellite broadband for schools: Feasibility study’ (SMART 2015/0061), was published in September 2017. It confirmed that the use of satellite-based access and distribution is an efficient solution to make broadband internet and educational multimedia content immediately available to schools that are now unconnected or poorly connected and would otherwise remain so for some time to come.

Objective of the pilot project

The objective of the pilot project was to build on the results of the feasibility study with field trials in Union regions containing schools in digital divide areas. In particular, it helped assess the benefits of immediate connectivity via satellite broadband for schools affected by the digital divide, with the support of regional or national authorities, in advance of the even greater benefits that the European Gigabit Society will subsequently make widely available.

Accordingly, the two-year pilot project:

(i)

identified Union regions that have a large number of schools (particularly primary schools) affected by long-term digital divide;

(ii)

applied simple, efficient and cost-effective voucher schemes to subsidise procurement of satellite broadband for access to and distribution of educational multimedia content, for example through the creation of digital libraries, as recommended in the feasibility study; and

(iii)

fostered outreach and communication, for example through workshops.

In this process the pilot project involved relevant European stakeholders in the ICT supply chain and ensured coordination with educational stakeholders (education ministries, Commission, etc.).

The pilot project could be carried out by means of a grant awarded without a call for proposals to the Network of European Regions Using Space Technologies (NEREUS), which is a dynamic platform for all European regions wishing to use space technologies to improve their public policies for the benefit of their citizens. The pilot project ran for two years (2018 and 2019) on the basis of that grant.

The preparatory action will build on the success of the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs Global (EYE Global)/Achieve Leadership in Entrepreneurship and Cooperation Opportunities (ALECO) pilot project. It will contribute towards achieving objectives of the Union in the field of entrepreneurship and economic growth by supporting the creation of start-ups across the Union.

The action is a one-way mobility scheme for new entrepreneurs of the Union providing for a stay of up to three months in the US, Canada, Singapore or South Korea. The destination countries have been selected on the basis of the progress made by the current pilot, trade relevance (including the existence of Free-Trade Agreements) and the existence of advanced start-up support ecosystems.

Up to 350 candidates from Member States will be selected from the target group and given the opportunity to gain experience from successful and experienced host entrepreneurs and to interact with the host’s start-up ecosystem.

The target group of participants includes profiles with the following eligibility criteria: (a) future entrepreneurs with ready-to-implement business plans and giving a binding commitment to start up a firm; (b) entrepreneurs who have started a business in the last three years, either alone or in partnership.

The Union budget will support the participating entrepreneurs by covering travel costs and subsistence costs in the chosen destinations for the duration of their stay and by funding the necessary measures to identify host entrepreneurs and promote the programme in the destination countries.

Arrangements for implementation of the action will build on existing arrangements for the EYE Global pilot project, including delegation to the relevant executive agency where applicable, with provision being made for resources to be adjusted where necessary.

Remarks

A smart destination is the result of several factors, including information and communication technologies that promote an innovative territory, cooperation and co-creation, mainly by visitors. On the basis of an understanding of this aspect, accessibility is one of the features of an intelligent tourist destination, both physically and virtual. Smartness enhances the quality of the experience at the destination for both visitors and residents.

A smart city can be seen as an urban space that takes advantage of information and communication technologies and data science to answer today’s challenges, namely to become more efficient in services and infrastructure management and to deliver enhanced quality of life to the people who live or work in the city or visit the city, including support for combating climate change.

In this context, city authorities are under pressure and are going through a digital transformation process that is reflected in the proliferation of smart-cities initiatives around the world. This is part of the strategic response to the challenges and opportunities of growing urbanisation and climate change, together with the emergence of cities as a space for social and economic development framed by an urgent need for global sustainability.

A study on smart cities will cover a concept of urban intelligence and its building blocks that result from the city digital transformation process, which will lead to a paradigm shift turning the city into a platform where urban planning and management for sustainability is supported by urban analytics and real-time data.

With that in mind, a study will be carried out on the basis of an implementation plan in a specific city/region with a view to ensuring:

quantitative and qualitative data on tourism and smart destinations;

better knowledge of the impact of tourism;

the development and creation of a European methodology of tourism analysis based on big data applied at Union level for smart destinations;

better research and development for solutions designed at Union level;

scope for local testing and future applicability (implementation plan in a specific city).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the costs of the functioning and activities of European non-governmental and non-profit organisations representing the interests of small and medium-sized enterprises and consumers, as well as environmental and social interests, in standardisation activities.

Such representation in the standardisation process at European level forms part of the statutory objectives of such organisations, and they have been mandated by national non-profit organisations in at least two thirds of the Member States to represent those interests.

Contributions to such European organisations have previously been covered by the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, the consumer policy and the Financial Instrument for the environment, LIFE+. In Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 the actions in the field of standardisation financed by specific programmes have been brought together in a single legal act.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the Agency’s staff and administrative expenditure (Titles 1 and 2), and operational expenditure in connection with the work programme (Title 3).

The Agency must inform the European Parliament and the Council about transfers of appropriations between operational and administrative expenditure.

The contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto, must be added to the appropriations entered in this article. By way of information, those amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with points (b), (e) and (f) of Article 21(2) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under the ‘European Economic Area’ Annex to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

The amounts repaid in accordance with Article 17 of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/715 of 18 December 2018 on the framework financial regulation for the bodies set up under the TFEU and Euratom Treaty and referred to in Article 70 of Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 122, 10.5.2019, p. 1) constitute assigned revenue in accordance with point (b) of Article 21(3) of the Financial Regulation, to be charged to Item 6 6 0 0 of the statement of revenue.

In 2020, the Agency’s revenue from fees and charges and the surplus carried over from previous year will not be sufficient to cover for the expected expenditure, which implies the need of a balancing subsidy from the Commission. The Union contribution for 2020 amounts to a total of EUR 61 879 520. An amount of EUR 3 051 863, coming from the surplus, is added to the amount of EUR 58 827 657 entered in the budget.

Remarks

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

In recent decades, Europe has made substantial improvements in fire safety by continuously enhancing regulations and the implementation of national fire safety measures. The rate of fire fatalities in Member States fell by 65 % between 1979 and 2007, although with significant disparities across Member States. A better understanding of these differences will help identify best practices. According to statistics, fire fatalities represent about 2 % of accidental deaths in the Union (Commission study regarding Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 on the toxicity of smoke produced by construction products in fires).

The Commission’s study revealed an important data gap in the coverage of statistical information on fire safety and fire casualties in buildings across Europe. In addition, the nature and format of data collected varies greatly across Member States, which hinders data comparison and thereby to effectively assessing potential best practices and successful safety approaches.

Furthermore, recent tragic events have rightly triggered renewed attention on how to improve fire safety in buildings in Europe. One example is the Directive (EU) 2018/844 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 amending Directive 2010/31/EU on the energy performance of buildings and Directive 2012/27/EU on energy efficiency (OJ L 156, 19.6.2018, p. 75), in which the Council and the European Parliament emphasise the importance of fire safety, in particular the renovation of existing buildings in Europe.

The planned enhanced efforts to renovate the building stock in Europe present an added opportunity to further improve fire safety, while recognising that the issue of fire safety and prevention remains relevant in a context going beyond renovations. Electrical safety is another key aspect and might be influenced by the increased deployment of infrastructure for electric vehicles in buildings as well as enhanced interactions between buildings and the grid.

This pilot project addresses the data gap in Europe in the area of fire casualties, fire safety measures and fire prevention measures.

The pilot project takes into account and make use of any initiatives by the new Fire Information Exchange Platform (FIEP), recently established by the Commission. The results of this project will also support the work of the FIEP.

The pilot project funds a Union-wide analysis and assessment of available fire safety data, identify data gaps and draw up recommendations for:

(a)

Union-level actions to support enhanced data collection and data streamlining in statistics regarding fire casualties, fire safety and fire prevention (closing data gaps)

(b)

Union-level actions to support the domestic fire safety and fire prevention efforts of Member States, including in relation to the renovation of buildings (Union-wide fire safety awareness campaign)

The pilot project could lead to subsequent preparatory action to launch Union-level actions and initiatives in support of Member States’ fire safety and fire prevention efforts, including their building renovation efforts, thereby supporting safety for Europeans as well as sustainable growth and job creation in Europe.

The pilot project is implemented by the Commission with possible assistance by external contractors, research facilities and relevant stakeholders.

Remarks

As a follow-up to the existing pilot project under Item 02 03 77 07, and having regard to paragraph 40 of the European Parliament recommendation of 4 April 2017 to the Council and the Commission following the inquiry into emission measurements in the automotive sector (OJ C 298, 23.8.2018, p. 140), this preparatory action will continue to fund measures relating to third-party testing of RDE in relation to transposition of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007.

In the past, qualified third parties provided authorities at Union and national level with reliable information on the emission behaviour of vehicles. That information was rarely made available by the authorities responsible. Funding should be made available to allow them to provide reliable data from on-road emissions testing of passenger cars which is independent of the data provided by manufacturers and regulatory authorities in order to promote transparency and improve market surveillance.

Third parties will use validated test procedures as laid down in Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1151, including the four RDE packages and the guidelines outlined in the Commission notice of 26 January 2017. They will publish the results of their measurements in order to support the development of best practice procedures and the provision of broader information to the authorities responsible and the public.

The focus of the work will be on lifetime compliance that can be assessed by testing vehicles which are outside the parameters currently regulated by either in-service conformity or market surveillance, i.e. vehicles more than five years old or which have been driven for more than 100 000 km. Such testing will provide extremely useful information on the quality of current emission control systems and will help in providing necessary information for the development of the new legislative proposal on emissions. The testing should include RDE tests and laboratory tests on older vehicles, as well as measurement of all possible pollutants, including those not currently regulated.

Independent third parties will thus contribute to better oversight of how exhaust standards are performing in practice and the extent to which the Union’s objectives in terms of air quality and climate policy are being achieved. They will contribute to a broader understanding of exhaust reduction strategies with regard to acceleration, high speed, ambient temperature and other criteria.

Remarks

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

Vehicle emissions tests using PEMS or remote sensing show that some EURO 5 and EURO 6 vehicles still emit significantly more NOx under real-world conditions compared to laboratory test results. Only since the introduction of the real driving emission (RDE) test with EURO 6d (from 1 September 2017 onwards) have discrepancies between type- approved and real-world emissions been reduced.

In order to improve the real-world environmental performance of type-approved EURO 5 and EURO 6 vehicles (before the introduction of RDE), retrofitting of vehicles is required.

On 16 April 2018, the Commission awarded the Horizon Prize on Engine Retrofit for Clean Air. The prize demonstrated the effectiveness of retrofits and the relatively low costs, and spurred the development of new technologies that can be applied to recent EURO 5 and EURO 6 diesel engines.

Further work to assess the effectiveness of retrofit options, building on the Horizon Prize on Engine Retrofit for Clean Air, is required. A broad range of technologies should be assessed on a variety of engine technologies of various EURO classes, including Gasoline Particle Filters retrofit options. Moreover, possible certification schemes for retrofit solutions should be assessed, in order to provide clear information to consumers and enhance trust in the effectiveness of retrofit options.

The pilot project has the following goals:

to carry out a broad testing exercise, testing the effectiveness of various retrofit options to determine which technologies under which conditions are able to meet the EURO 6 emission limit values (ELV) and the relevant access requirements for low-emission zones (LEZ), using laboratory tests and the RDE test, and covering a broad range of driving conditions, engine technologies and EURO classes;

to assess a variety of possible certification schemes for retrofit solutions.

The project builds on the work already carried out by the Commission in the context of the Horizon Prize.

Legal basis

Remarks

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

Europe is increasingly reliant on space technologies, with the satellite sector providing new applications in both the civilian and military spheres. The risk of interference between space actors and space objects is increasing. There is a clear need for space traffic management (STM) in order to ensure that space activities (exploration and utilisation of space, space applications and services) are carried out safely and to shape the development of the legal and regulatory framework for space activities. The legal foundation is provided by international space law treaties. The Space Situational Awareness (SSA) programme could be a basis for STM.

STM could comprise the following actions:

(1)

interdisciplinary research;

(2)

opinion building;

(3)

advancing technical prerequisites and international cooperation;

(4)

preparation in United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNCOPUOS), International Telecommunication Union (ITU), International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and inter-governmental forums;

(5)

raising public awareness.

Objectives of STM:

(1)

guaranteeing the prosperity and advancement of future generations by keeping spaceflight safe and space exploration and use sustainable;

(2)

dealing with the problems and promises of spaceflight by addressing all phases of traffic entering, operating in and returning from outer space;

(3)

tackling the ongoing decline in safety and sustainability by tying together existing technologies, infrastructures and legal instruments.

Remarks

This project will analyse the threat of GNSS jamming and cyber-attacks to aviation and identify mitigation measures.

This is a two-year project to be led by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency in coordination with European partners to ensure the safety of civil aviation by implementing integrated security measures and jamming-proof mechanisms. The project will identify good practices for regulators and operators, and provide policy guidance in connection with security for the GNSS system and possible future initiatives in the area of aviation security.

The project will also address the issue of GNSS/PNT equipment (most notably receivers) by proposing installation and operation strategies that can be implemented for current equipment as well as strategies that can result in more resilient new and/or improved products.

Moreover, the project will assess whether the proposed strategies are applicable to non-aviation domains.

Remarks

Sudden cardiac arrests account for 20% of deaths in the Union. This figure could be significantly lower if early chest compression and early defibrillation were performed on all victims. Indeed, research shows that a first defibrillation less than three minutes after cardiac arrest results in a survival rate of 74%. Yet less than 5% of cardiac arrest victims are treated with early chest compression and defibrillation.

Nowadays, more and more information campaigns are being carried out to encourage people to learn how to perform cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and to encourage individuals, private organisations and public authorities to acquire automated external defibrillators (AEDs). However, the location of these devices is in many cases unknown to others, including the emergency services. This results in a situation where heart attack victims cannot be resuscitated in time. Hence, it is essential to develop and promote measures to map publicly accessible AEDs.

At the same time, the added value of the European global navigation satellite systems EGNOS and Galileo as regards location-based services has already been demonstrated. Those systems should also be used to save lives by locating AEDs.

A registry of all accessible AEDs should be made available to emergency call-takers, who could advise persons calling emergency services as to where the nearest defibrillator is located. Where possible, the registry should also be made directly available to members of the public.

It should however be taken into consideration that:

some defibrillators are not accessible on a round-the-clock basis, since they might be located in places that are closed at specific times (offices, shops, schools, etc.);

in some instances, such as in large buildings, the address of the defibrillator might not be sufficient to find it quickly. Location information should therefore also include important details such as the floor level;

information that defibrillators are in proper working order is also very important. For instance, modern defibrillators are now able to communicate battery power status.

Information provided in the registry should be made available in two ways:

by fitting AEDs with Galileo chipsets so that their exact position can be accurately tracked, and

by manually adding details for AEDs that are not equipped with chipsets.

The project will demonstrate the added value of Galileo in saving lives. Due to its performance in terms of accuracy and signal availability, Galileo will help reduce intervention time for victims of heart attacks, bearing in mind that every minute lost before chest compression or defibrillation lowers survival rate by 10%.

The central objective of the pilot project is therefore to:

analyse the best possible way of developing, organising and managing a registry of publicly accessible AEDs, taking advantage of the location information provided by Galileo;

find an alternative solution to a registry, based on Galileo.

Legal basis

Pilot project within the meaning of Article 58(2) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 July 2018 on the financial rules applicable to the general budget of the Union, amending Regulations (EU) No 1296/2013, (EU) No 1301/2013, (EU) No 1303/2013, (EU) No 1304/2013, (EU) No 1309/2013, (EU) No 1316/2013, (EU) No 223/2014, (EU) No 283/2014, and Decision No 541/2014/EU and repealing Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 966/2012 (OJ L 193, 30.7.2018, p. 1).

Remarks

The aim of this appropriation is to:

enable operations of Copernicus services, tailored to the needs of users;

contribute to ensure access to data of the observation infrastructure necessary to operate Copernicus services;

create opportunities for increased private sector usage of information sources, thereby facilitating innovation by value-adding service providers.

This appropriation will, in particular, fund the set-up, the establishment and operation of the six services mentioned in Regulation (EU) No 377/2014 and the related activities.

This appropriation may also fund cross-cutting activities among the services or their articulation and co-ordination, as well as for the in-situ co-ordination, user uptake and training and communication.

The budget envelope will be managed either directly by the Commission services or indirectly via delegation agreements with Union agencies and international organisations, or any entity eligible under Article 62 of the Financial Regulation.

When the Commission manages the budget directly, it may entrust the Joint Research Centre (JRC) with scientific and technical support tasks. The funding of these tasks may be entered into the JRC’s indirect budget under point (g) of Article 21(2) and point (d) of Article 30(1) of the Financial Regulation.

In addition, in support of competiveness and growth, this appropriation may also fund data dissemination and the incubation of new businesses by supporting more robust and innovative IT structures in Europe.

Copernicus services will facilitate access to key data required in policy formulation at Union, national, regional and local level in fields such as agriculture, forest monitoring, water management, transport, urban planning, climate change and many others. This appropriation covers mainly the implementation of delegation agreements for the Copernicus programme, pursuant to Article 58 of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

The aim of this appropriation is to:

build an autonomous Union’s Earth observation capacity by funding the space infrastructure and favouring the European industry in that regard, namely in the construction and launch of satellites;

contribute to the availability of the observation capacity necessary to enable the Copernicus services, in particular through the operations of the ground segment of the space infrastructure;

create opportunities for increased private sector usage of information sources, thereby facilitating innovation by value-adding service providers.

The development of a European space infrastructure has a key role in enhancing competitiveness and innovation, and requires consistent public intervention to sustain the industrial effort.

This appropriation will fund the development and construction of satellites, as well as their operation. The data and information obtained through the space infrastructure is subject to the free, full and open data policy, which will increase their availability and thereby boost the downstream market.

To supplement the data needed by users, this appropriation may also fund the acquisition of data from third parties and the access to contributing mission from Member States, as well as the dedicated dissemination platform (core ground segment) which will serve, in priority the operational services funded by Article 02 06 01.

The budget envelope will be managed either directly by the Commission services or indirectly via delegation agreements with Union agencies and international organisations, or any entity eligible under Article 58 of the Financial Regulation.

When the Commission manages the budget directly, it may entrust the Joint Research Centre (JRC) with scientific and technical support tasks. The funding of these tasks may be entered into the JRC’s indirect budget under point (g) of Article 21(2) and point (d) of Article 30(1) of the Financial Regulation.
