Inhoudsopgave
Strengthening European territorial cooperation
SUMMARY OF:
Regulation (EU) No 1299/2013 - support from the European Regional Development Fund for European territorial cooperation
SUMMARY
WHAT DOES THE REGULATION DO?
It sets out the objectives, criteria and funds available under the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) for 2014-20 with specific reference to European territorial cooperation (ETC) - one of the goals of EU regional policy.
KEY POINTS
Overall aims
European territorial cooperation (ETC) is a core objective of EU regional policy and is financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). The regulation describes the background and general principles of ETC and specifies the scope of the ERDF in achieving the objectives of territorial cooperation for the period 2014-20.
The aim of ETC is to encourage regions and cities from different EU countries to work together and learn from each other through joint programmes, projects and networks.
ETC programmes come in 3 types:
— |
cross-border cooperation: financing joint projects implemented directly at EU borders, for example between neighbouring land or maritime border-regions, or a region in at least one EU country and non-EU country on the external borders of the EU. These regions in non-EU countries must not be covered by programmes under the EU's external financial instruments; |
— |
transnational cooperation programmes: involve national, regional and local partners over larger areas of cooperation, such as the Baltic Sea Region; |
— |
interregional cooperation: all EU countries are eligible to participate in projects of this type. It includes projects and networks for the exchange of experience and good practice between regional and local bodies in different countries. These projects aim to ensure that cohesion policy resources are applied effectively. |
Management of programmes
As ETC programmes consist of a group of EU countries and sometimes non-EU countries, they are managed by a body jointly designated by the participating countries.
Reporting
Regulation (EU) 2015/207 lays down the detailed rules that managing authorities need to follow for drawing up the annual and final implementation reports.
Budget
The budget within the ERDF for ETC is €8.9 billion over the 2014-20 period. The contribution to the 3 main types of programme is broken down as follows:
— |
cross-border cooperation: €6.6 billion; |
— |
transnational cooperation: €1.8 billion; |
— |
interregional cooperation: €500 million. |
List of cooperation programmes
Commission Implementing Decision 2014/366/EU sets out the list of cooperation programmes and the amount of ERDF support for each programme.
BACKGROUND
The ERDF is 1 of 5 European Structural and Investment Funds that work together to support economic, social and territorial cohesion and deliver the objectives of the EU's Europe 2020 strategy to generate smart, sustainable and inclusive growth.
