  2. Mobilisation of resources, crucial topic to make Strategy happen Once we agree on: • Priorities • Actions • Flagships Then we must align: • Policy • Instruments • Funding All sources of funding vital (EU, national, IFI, private) But Structural Funds = € 95 bn (2007-2013), and there is a large amt. (over 50%) still to be used

  3. Many SF priorities  Danube priorities (they reinforce each other) • MOBILITY (TEN-T) • ENERGY (TEN-E) • ENV (River Basin Mgmt. Plan) But also Danube added-value • Enterprise & Markets • Research • ICT, Knowledge (e.g. Bulgaria  Austria, Romania  Bavaria)

  4. In SF programmes we can draw on Baltic experience, as already discussed in Bratislava in March 2010 • introduce awareness in Operational Programmes (OP) of « Danube context » • « screen » OP versus STRATEGY • consider aligning selection criteria for: • Actions • Flagships • consider priority axis modification • utilise e.g. Art 37 (6) of the Regulation and other opportunities • seek « good practice » or « development links » Danube-wide • publicise/ communicate Danube-wide relevance (labelling, events etc.) • monitor & report to Annual Report/ Stakeholder Forum

  5. In all this you will have assistance • All priorities (MOBILITY, ENERGY, RTD, ENV) will have co-ordinators: Programmes, Policy, etc. As well as possible support for • Feasibility studies • Pilot projects (already often in INTERREG B) • Project development • Financial packages • Technical monitoring expertise • drawing on JASPERS, E.I.B. etc. As well as • Exchange of good practice (Bratislava) • Discussion of common techical issues • Facilitating practical links strategy  OPs • drawing especially on INTERACT

  6. In addition, there should be links to EU Commission expertise via • Line DGs • Good European practice • Governance & rule-of-law issues • Links to « Future 2014-2020 programming » discussions • Overall support through « Reference Docs » • Overall aim to make all interventions more effective, better value-for-money
