The right of victims of an EU antitrust infringement to compensation for the harm
caused by such an infringement has already been established by the Court of
Justice. The objective of this legislative initiative is to ensure effective damages
actions before national courts and to clarify the interrelation of such private actions
with public enforcement by the Commission and the national competition
authorities, notably as regards the protection of leniency programmes, in order to
preserve the central role of public enforcement in the EU.

The global objective of the review is to improve environmental protection at
national level by ensuring a more consistent an effective application of the
principles of environmental assessment and ensure consistency with the relevant
international obligations.
Programme de travail de la Commission / 2012 / CWP2012
A new EU dedicated legislative instrument will be proposed to address the policy
gap on invasive alien species and to ensure that there is a comprehensive EU
framework to effectively tackle the problem. The main policy objective is to
minimise the negative impact of IAS on EU biodiversity. This would require
working on a) the prevention of IAS entry into and spread within the EU territory; b)
early detection and rapid response to eradicate new IAS; c) control, containment
and other management options to minimise negative impacts of established IAS,
and d) horizontal/cross-cutting activities (monitoring and research, communication
and capacity building in particular).
Programme de travail de la Commission / 2012 / CWP2012
The aim is to bring about the policy changes needed to meet the EU's objectives
of a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy for 2020 and beyond, in the face of
the changing and increasingly systemic nature of the environmental challenge and
to address the continuing environmental degradation as set out in the EEA's 2010
SOER report. An essential part of this will be to deepen integration of
environmental considerations into other policy areas, increase policy coherence,
improve the implementation of existing environmental legislation and renew the
international dimension to the EU's environmental policy and provide a longer term
vision for environment policy.

The evaluation looks at the minimum harmonisation that the Directive ought to
bring (period of retention, types of data to retain, categories of crime for which
they can be used), the levelling of the playing field for economic operators
(reimbursement of costs), and avoiding removal of the distortion of the internal
market. Moreover, data protection concerns remain, but relate most of the time to
access and use of the retained data that are until now, covered by national law.
The cross-border use of retained data is very low.

(ii) further strengthen the EU internal market efficiency in the investment fund
sector and (iii) ensure that the UCITS legislative framework does not impair
financial stability on the market. More concretely, on the operational level, the aim
of the changes being considered within the UCITS framework will aim at providing

The proposal will seek to create a common framework governing the precontractual information that has to be provided to retail investors when buying
investments. The focus is intended to be on 'packaged retail investment products',
which are typically opaque and difficult for investors to understand, and which
represent the core of the retail investment market. The framework will provide a
starting point for further much more detailed work in the form of implementing
measures, which will tailor the information requirements as necessary for different
types of product, but also establish a common risk rating for all products and
measures for comparing their costs.

Recent experience has demonstrated that the Union's capacity to react is not
quick enough when confronted with sudden and massive VAT fraud phenomena in
certain Member States. Up until now, derogations have been granted to individual
Member States to stop this type of fraud in the affected sectors, but the procedure
for granting derogations is not flexible enough to ensure a prompt and suitable
reaction. The proposed new mechanism for adopting derogatory measures - quick
reaction mechanism - would considerably increase the speed to deal with these
problems. Its ultimate objective is to counter massive fraud schemes before they
start having a considerable impact on national budgets

The aim of the initiative is to ensure that the European nuclear sector can fully
benefit from the single market in a similar way to other industries. The current prior
authorisation system for intra-community transfers of non-sensitive nuclear items
is a disproportionate means of gathering the necessary information for fulfilling
Member States' obligations towards the IAEA under the Additional Protocol (AP).
Some of the possible options would replace an authorisation procedure by a
reporting procedure. The chosen approach should reduce administrative burden
for the Member States' administrations and business.

The general objective is to help clarify the third party liability regime applicable to
EU GNSS as one of the financial aspects of the further exploitation of the EU
GNSS. The specific objective is to put in place a uniform liability regime which
strikes a balance between the interests of all stakeholders: - of the users and third
parties, as possible claimants - and of all players in the GNSS chain, as possible
defendants. The operational objective is to define rules which are compatible with
the specifics of the EU GNSS implementation.

The revision objectives will be to: - replace many impractical and ineffective
administrative provisions which do not allow to retreive the manufacturers or
importers of a number of mass market radio equipment by more modern electronic
means. - create an environment more conducive to innovative technologies and
mitigate risks when interference phenomena are not known yet, and in particular
when there is no harmonised standard. - that too many players ignore the rules
and hence more focus on enforcement and better tools for national administration.

Harmonisation: due to certain options and vague definitions, the practical
application of provisions related to public authorities varies widely among MSs
creating differences in VAT treatment of public authorities. Neutrality: distortions of
competition between public and rivate sector and several economic inefficiencies
and tax avoidance schemes are main disadvantages of current rules.

The aim is to continue to ensure transparency by taking into account the
judgement of the Cour of Justice issued on 9/11/2011. Member States were
obliged to publish all subsidies to beneficiaries of payments under the CAP and
rural development policy. These obligations were challenged by two German
farmers (ECJ cases C-92/09 Volker und Markus Schecke GbR and C-93/09
Hartmut Eifert). The Court in its judgment of 9/11/2010 partially invalidates the
legal base in relation to the publication obligations (Art 42, point 8 and Art 44bis of
Reg 1290/2005). It also invalidates in its entirety Commission Reg 259/2008 on
the application of Council Reg 1290/2005 as regards the publication of information
on the beneficiaries of funds from the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund
(EAGF) and the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD).

The European Investment Bank requested to increase from 10% up to 15% the
part of the envelope dedicated to the financing of interest subsidies in the ACP
Investment Facility to be used to support project related technical assistance, as
the current envelope for technical assistance is too limited. This requires a slight
modification of Annex II (art. 1(3) and 2(9)) of the Cotonou agreement, to be
adopted by the ACP-EU Council of Ministers. This change will not constitute a
problem for Member States and ACP partners. It will not have a financial impact.

to the preparation of the Internal Agreement for the EDF 2014-2020 (11th EDF),
for which the Commission proposals are to be tabled in December 2011.
Whereas the Internal Agreement will fix the amount and define the various
financial envelopes, the contributions keys and the voting rights in the EDF
Committee, the EDF implementing regulation will define the general framework for

The European Capitals of Culture (ECoC), which were created in 1985, have
become a highly visible deliverable of the EU. Their aim is to promote the diversity
of European cultures as well as their contribution to the long-term development of
cities. The rules on ECoC were renewed in 2006 (Decision 1622/2006/EC) in order
to stimulate competition between the cities and the quality of the bids especially in
terms of long-term impact of the events. The current legal base for the ECoC
includes a chronological list of Member States indicating the order in which they
are entitled to host the title until 2019. As the selection procedure for an ECoC
starts six years in advance, the Commission will put forward in 2012 a proposal for
the continuation of the scheme.

The general objective of a renewed [food scheme] is to contribute to increased
social cohesion. The specific objectives of the renewed programme are: • To
start a process of social inclusion of poor people experiencing food poverty • To
strengthen social cohesion by promoting volunteering work, learning and caring. •
To meet, at least in part, the notional food demand of populations suffering most
from severe material depravation.
To revise the founding regulation of EUROFOUND in order to take account of the
conclusions and recommendations of the Inter-Institutional Working Group on
Agencies - composition of the Governing Board, nomination of Director.
Under Article 155 TFEU and conditional upon agreement by social partners
Following the adoption of a report on indirect land use change GHG impacts from
biofuels and bioliquids in December last year, the Commission agreed to carry out
an impact assessment on potential policy options for addressing these by July
2011. If appropriate, legislative proposals for amending the Renewable Energy
and Fuel Quality Directives will also be put forward.

...
This Regulation shall apply to all new passenger cars and light commercial
vehicles (categories M1 and N1 as defined in Annexe 2 of Directive 2007/46/EC)
which can technically be fitted with an eCall triggering system. The main objective
is to contribute to reduction of road fatalities and severity of injuries, thanks i.a. to
the reduction of response time by emergency services. This general objective will
be achieved through the following specific objectives:
Improvement of the
operation of the emergency services in the accident scene due to the information
received
Improvement of incident/road management and therefore reduction
of secondary accidents, road congestion and subsequent pollution
Contribution
to the Deployment of Intelligent Transport System (ITS) services applied to road
transports
The purpose of the proposal is to: - align Council Regulation (EC) No 1216/2009
on the trade arrangements for processed agricultural products/non annex I goods
with the differentiation between delegated and implementing powers of the
Commission introduced by Articles 290 and 291 of the Treaty on the Functioning
of the European Union (TFEU). - improve the comprehensibility and accessibility
of Council Regulation (EC) No 1216/2009.
The objectives of Regulation (EC) No 273/2004 on drug precursors are to
effectively prevent the diversion of drug precursors from the legal trade to the illicit
manufacture of synthetic drugs and psychotropic substances – in line with the EU
Drug Strategy 2005-2012, which aims to achieve a high level of protection, wellbeing and social cohesion by preventing and reducing drug use. The objectives of
the present initiative are to address certain weaknesses to achieve this goal for
the main heroin drug precursor AA and possibly also for all other drug precursors
of the same category (scheduled substances in category 2) whilst not creating
unnecessary obstacles to legitimate trade.

The proposal pursues the following general policy objectives: • Ensuring proper
functioning of the internal market; and • Providing for a high level of environmental
protection in the European Union. The specific objectives cover: • to have
emissions legislation and type approval requirements that reflect technical
progress and that address regulatory failures that have been identified; and • to
make use of simplification potential in the legal framework for the type approval of
motor vehicles; and • to improve the efficiency of driving patterns in order to
reduce air pollutants and GHG emissions.
General objective is to safeguard the long-term availability and security of EU
and national space infrastructures and services essential for the smooth running of
EU's economies and societies and for EU citizens' security. It aims at increasing
EU's capacity to - reduce the risks related to the launch of EU spacecrafts; assess and reduce the risks to in-orbit operations of EU spacecrafts in terms of
collisions, and to enable spacecraft operators to more efficiently plan and carry out
mitigation measures; - survey uncontrolled e-entries of spacecraft into the Earth's
atmosphere and provide more accurate and efficient early warnings to national
security administrations with the aim to reduce the potential risks to the security of
EU citizens

Following the entry into force of the TFEU, technical measures could no longer be
included in the annual Fishing Opportunities Regulation. Therefore, Council
Regulation 1288/2009 ensures that the temporary measures laid down in Council
Regulation 43/2009 would remain in place. That Regulation provided for a 18
months continuation of the measures until 30.06.2011. They were further extended
for another 18 months under Regulation 579/2011 until 31.12.2012. The present
initiative will address the discontinuation of these measures which would have
negative consequences for the stocks involved and impacts on vulnerable
habitats. It will ensure legal certainty for these measures while a new technical
measures regulation is developed under the CFP reform. The intention is to
incorporate these measures into the existing Regulation 850/98.
Following the entering into force of the Lisbon Treaty there is a need to align
Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 establishing a Community control system
to Article 290 TFEU.

Following the entering into force of the Lisbon Treaty there is a need to align

Article 290 TFEU.
Article 17(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 establishes a derogation from the
general access rule set out in Article 17(1), for the 12nm zone of Member States,
authorizing them to restrict access to certain vessels. This derogation is in place
from 1 January 2003 to 31 December 2012. The continuation of the 12nm access
regime is foreseen in Article 6(2) of the proposal for a new Regulation for the
Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) (COM(2011)425). In the event that the reform of
the CFP is not concluded by the end of 2012, it is necessary to extend the 12nm
access regime until the entry into force of the new Regulation of the European
Parliament and of the Council on the CFP, to ensure that fishing activities can
continue without interruption.
This proposal updates the EU rules transposing the measures adopted in the
framework of: - the International Convention for the Conservation of Atlantic
Tunas; - the Agreement for the Establishment of the Indian Ocean Tuna
Commission ; - the Convention for the Strengthening of the Inter-American
Tropical Tuna Commission established by the 1949 Convention between the USA
and the Republic of Costa Rica; - the Convention on the Conservation and
Management of Highly Migratory Fish Stocks in the Western and Central Pacific
Ocean, and - the Convention for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna

CCSBT to which the EU is a Cooperating Non-Member) and the measures
adopted are binding on the EU, which has to transpose them into EU law.

means that after August 2012 vessels operating in both EU and Norwegian waters

The burden of poverty-related diseases remains a major challenge in developing
countries, particularly in Africa. New medical interventions are urgently needed.
Developing a new drug, vaccine or microbicide is costly, especially the clinical
trials required. Related research efforts in Europe are still fragmented and thus
inefficient, and the research capacities and investments in developing countries
are inadequate. Based on the success of the first EDCTP launched in 2003, this
second phase aims to conduct 120 new clinical trials, to strengthen Africa's
capacities for clinical research and to train 350 African researchers and doctors
The objective of the proposal will be to improve governance of the ITER and the
management of Euratom contribution to this project by changing statutes of the

The Council Decision aims at approving the terms of Yemen's accession to WTO
before the EU can formally support Yemen's entry.
The scope of the Commission Decision is to terminate the suspended procedure
initiated under a Trade Barrier Regulation investigation launched in 1999 at the
request of the European pharmaceutical industry. The termination will be
warranted once the signature to the EU/Korea FTA will have taken place, as the
FTA will have achieved the objective at which the TBR case aimed, i.e. providing
access to innovation and ensuring that transparency and due process are granted
in the determination of pricing and reimbursement of pharmaceutical products.

EU Guidelines for the application of State
aid rules in relation to rapid deployment of
broadband networks
COMP
State aid will play an important role to extend basic broadband and very high
speed where market operators are unlikely to invest on commercial terms in the
near future. The Digital Agenda (in Key Action 8) calls Member States "to use
public financing in line with EU competition and State aid rules" in order to meet
the coverage, speed and take-up targets defined in Europe 2020. The State aid
Broadband Guidelines – which lay down how public funding should be granted to
broadband development in line with the EU State aid rules – forms a fundamental
cornerstone of this strategy.The existing Broadband Guidelines of 2009 need to be
updated on the basis of future important market, technological and regulatory
developments (as stipulated in the final provision of the current version).

The current Rescue and Restructuring guidelines expire in October 2012. A new
set of guidelines will have to be adopted by that date reflecting recent policy
development in the field of state aid and experience gained during the financial
crisis.
Programme de travail de la Commission / 2012 / CWP2012
The current regional aid guidelines expire on 31.12.2013. Elements to take into
consideration for preparing the new guidelines for the period 2014-2020 include
socioeconomic conditions in Member States, national policies aimed at providing
financial support to businesses, the Europe 2020 strategy, the review of EU
Cohesion Policy and Commission general policy regarding State aid control. The
proposal will seek to simplify and to improve the efficiency of control procedures
for regional State aid.

The reference rate provides a proxy for the market rate. It thus allows to
determine when a measure does not contain aid (because it was in accordance
with the reference rate), and to calculate the grant equivalent of aid or the aid
element in interest subsidy schemes. Since the start of the financial crisis market
rates (in particular risk premiums) have risen. Therefore, the current method for
setting the reference rate seems no longer appropriate under the new market
conditions since it leads to rates that are too generous in comparison to market
prices and results in potential distortions of competition. The objective of the
revision is to determine a new method that provides a good proxy for market rates
in the post-crisis area.

The Guarantee Notice provides guidance to determine when a guarantee can be
considered as being provided on market terms and therefore not involving State
aid. Since the start of the financial crisis market rates (in particular risk premiums)
have risen. Therefore, the current rules may no longer be appropriate under the
new market conditions since they could be too generous in comparison to market
prices and result in potential distortions of competition. The objective of the
revision is to adapt the notice in order to ensure that the rules reflect the new
market conditions in the post-crisis area. The revision goes together with the
revision of the Reference rate Communication.

In view of the expiry of the Communication end of 2012, the purpose of the
revision exercise is to determine whether the current Communication should
continue to apply, be modified or expire in 2012. Issues to be examined include in
particular: the qualification under the State aid rules, the definition of marketable
risk, the demonstration that a risk is temporarily non-marketable, potential
distortions at the level of exporters, pricing etc. At the same time, it will be
examined whether the scope of the Communication should be broadened with a
view to also covering e.g. export credits granted in forms other than insurance, as
well as the medium and long-term export credit segment.

CSOs and LAs Platforms and Networks), the Communication will be built primarily
upon the results of the "Structured Dialogue for an effective partnership in
development". The consultation, launched by the EC in March 2010 and lasted 14
months, represented an innovative window of opportunity for dialogue with a broad
variety of traditional and emerging development actors. The objective is to create
an updated framework of reference for EU support to Civil Society and Local
Authorities in development. The EU has embarked in a strategic shifting of its
relationship with the aforementioned actors and the policy Communication would

A policy response is needed at European level to address the implementation
issues related to the current EU water policy framework and to develop measures
to tackle in particular water availability and water quantity problems. The Blueprint
to Safeguard Europe's Water will be the policy response to those challenges with
the aim to ensure good quality water in sufficient quantities for all legitimate uses.
The time horizon of the Blueprint is 2020 since it is closely related to the EU 2020
Strategy and in particular to the planned Resource Efficiency Roadmap. The
Blueprint will be the water milestone on that Roadmap. The Blueprint will
synthesise policy recommendations drawing from several ongoing evaluation
exercises and will be accompanied by a number of reports and new initiatives.

2003/87/EC, as amended by Directive 2009/29/EC, involve State aid within the
meaning of Article 107(1) of the TFEU. These state aid measures are not covered
by the Community Guidelines on State aid for environmental protection. In
accordance with Article 108 of the TFEU, state aid must be notified and authorised
by the Commission before it is granted. In order to ensure transparency and legal
predictability, the new Guidelines will explain the compatibility criteria which will be
applied to the State aid measures necessary in the context of implementing of
Directive 2003/87/EC, as amended by Directive 2009/29/EC.

When the temporary crisis-related rescue and restructuring rules for banks based
on Article 107 (3) (b) will expire (possibly as of 1 January 2012), a return to the
existing rescue and restructuring guidelines does not appear appropriate for the
financial sector. Rather, a new regime for the rescuing and restructuring of
financial institutions should be in place, which has to be based on Article 107 (3)
(c) but also takes account of lessons learnt during the financial crisis.

Programme de travail de la Commission / 2011 / Annexe II
Approximately 7.5 million workers in the EU are exposed to "environmental
tobacco smoke" (ETS) at the workplace. This exposure to ETS can cause lung
cancer, cardiovascular diseases and a range of other health problems. There is
evidence that exposure to ETS at work accounted for over 7000 deaths in the EU
in 2002. While many Member States have already taken actions in this area, there
is no uniform or comprehensive protection for workers in the European Union as
regards exposure to ETS. In December 2008, the Commission launched a firststage consultation of the European social partners, in accordance with Article 154
TFEU, on the possible orientation of an EU initiative as regards workers exposure
to ETS at the workplace.

This Communication should set out strategic orientations for a comprehensive
agricultural promotion and information policy. A new and simplified promotion and
information policy focused on EU added value is needed in order to respond
adequately to the current needs of agricultural and food markets (e.g: need of
more information on internal market or need to facilitate access to external
markets). This communication will be based on the contributions to the
Commission's Green Paper on agricultural promotion and information policy
adopted on 14 July 2011.
The report is made by the Commission pursuant to Council Decision
2003/530/EC on the compatibility with the common market of an aid that Italy
intends to grant to its milk producers. Under Article 1 of that decision, the aid,
constituted by Italy making payment to the Community of the amount due by
producers by virtue of the additional levy on milk for the period 1995/96 to 2001/02
and by allowing these producers to pay their debt by way of deferred payment
without interest, is exceptionally considered compatible with the common market
under certain conditions. Article 3 of the Decision requires the Italian authorities to
report annually to the Council and the Commission on the progress made in this
regard. The Commission must then assess this information and report to the
Council.
In 2007, the Council revised the organic farming legislation in place since 1991
and replaced it by the Regulation 834/2007. Article 41 of this regulation requires
the Commission to submit a report to the Council by 31/12/2011 to review the
experience gained from the application of this regulation. In particular: (a) the
scope of the Regulation, especially as regards organic food prepared by mass
caterers; (b) the prohibition on the use of GMOs, including the availability of
products not produced by GMOs, the vendor declaration, the feasibility of specific
tolerance thresholds and their impact on the organic sector; (c) the functioning of
the internal market and controls system, assessing in particular that the
established practices do not lead to unfair competition or barriers to the production
and marketing of organic products.
The Nordic Aid is a national aid paid in the northern regions of Finland and
Sweden in order to maintain agricultural activities. This aid was accepted by the
Act of Accession, Article 142, in 1995. The implementation of the aid schemes has
to be reported by the Commission to the Council every five years according to
Article 143 (last report in 2007). The report shall inform about the implementation
of the schemes and the results of the aid granted under this authorisation. The
content of the report is based on information submitted by the national authorities.
The Nordic Aid schemes focus on primary production. The schemes have
monetary constraints as well as production level ceilings for different categories of
produce. Milk production is by far the most important agricultural production line
and the sector receiving most aid.
The revised Energy Taxation Directive proposes a harmonised CO2 tax on all
sectors, while exempting those sectors which have been recognised to be subject
to a significant risk for carbon leakage. For industries participating in the EU
emission trading scheme (ETS) the Commission has adopted a decision which
lists the "carbon leakage sectors". For agriculture to benefit from the exemption
from the proposed CO2 tax, evidence of its exposure to the carbon leakage risk is
needed. So far no formal assessment of the carbon leakage risk in the sector has
been made. However, considering the exposure of EU agriculture to global
competition, it is reasonable to assume that such a risk is significant. This fact was
acknowledged in the Commission Communication "A roadmap for moving to a
competitive low carbon economy" (COM(2011) 112).

The purpose of this Commission Recommendation to the Council is for the
Council to authorise the Commission to open and conduct negotiations with the
International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) on the terms and conditions for
the official participation of the European Union in the OIV. The OIV is an
intergovernmental organisation drawing up recommendations and establishing
references in vine and wine sectors. The EU, by virtue of the powers vested in it
and the instruments it adopts, plays a leading role in matters with which the OIV
deals. To ensure consistency in the Union's position in its external relations and
facilitate coordination of common positions on matters of its competences,
participation with a particular status of the EU in the OIV is considered necessary,
while the essential roles of national experts is preserved.

The communication takes stock of results of the UNFCCC conference in Durban
end of 2011 and other EU policy developments. It sets out implications for further
development of climate policies. General objectives are: • To continue steering
international negotiations by proposing an efficient international framework
allowing parties to deliver the necessary emission reductions to keep temperature
increase below 2°C. • To take stock of the progress in policy tools to foster
mitigation in the EU for the transition to a low carbon economy which also
enhances energy security and sustainable growth, while ensuring that carbon
leakage is avoided.
Other simplification
SAM links to the Europe 2020 growth strategy. It shall minimise harmful effects of
the economic crisis on the internal market and assist in exiting the crisis. For this
purpose, SAM intends to refine state aid policy and enforcement by supporting
growth-enhancing 'good aid' aiming at rectifying actual market failures, increasing
efficiency through focusing procedure on the most important and potentially most
distortive cases and simplifying and clarifying state aid rules. These objectives are
closely interrelated and will be implemented by several initiatives regarding
different building-blocks of State aid policy: notion of aid, de minimis, blockexemptions, analysis of compatibility, guidelines and procedures. The
Communication will describe the objectives, building blocks and legal acts
required for implementation.

for development, including aid effectiveness, aid for trade, tax governance and
fast start climate finance. The 2012 Communication might also cover the followup to the High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness in Busan of late 2011.

The main objective is to step up the fight against world hunger and malnutrition,
thereby accelerating the achievement of MDG 1. In order to contribute to that
objective, the Implementation Plan proposes to provide an operational framework
for the EU in order to enhance coordination, effectiveness and accountability of
action. Specific objectives are the policy lines contained in the policy framework.
Following the 2010 Food security and nutrition initiatives including the
operationalisation of this policy framework, the Council invited the Commission to
propose an implementation plan.

could be feasible in 2010.

Traité sur l'Union européenne:

Decision77/270/Euratom of 29
March 1977 empowers the
Commission to contract, on
behalf of Euratom borrowings,
the proceed of which will be
allocated in the form of loans to
finance, within the European
Union, investment projects
relating to the industrial
production of electricity in
nuclear power stations and to
industrial installations in the
nuclear fuel cycle.
The cooperation between Euratom and the EIB in the Euratom lending context
provides in essence that, in order to ensure a homogeneous treatment of the loan
applications, the EIB will appraise Euratom loans according to its usual banking
practices and using the same economic, financial and technical criteria applicable
to EIB loans. The terms of the EIB-Euratom cooperation were initially set out in
Council guidelines. Implementing rules for the cooperation have thus far been set
out in exchanges of letters by the Commission and the EIB. Euratom and EIB
deem it appropriate that the arrangements for cooperation between themselves in
respect of potential financing of nuclear power projects within the European Union
be updated and consolidated in a single document.
Council Decision 2010/320/EU may be amended, on the basis of a Commission
Recommendation, with a view to taking into account the most recent economic
developments. The modifications made to the Council decision inevitably have an
impact on the policy conditions mentioned in the MoU, thus warranting an update
of the latter. The Commission has to empower Mr Rehn, in agreement with the
President, to prepare, negotiate with the Greek authorities and sign, after approval
by the lending Member States, the revisions to the MoU setting the detailed policy
conditions attached to the loan, which are necessary as a result of the amended
Council decision.
According to the loan facility agreement between Greece and the euro-area
Member States the quarterly releases of loans are conditional upon the euro-area

equal footing as regards the provisions in the Decisions setting up each of the

provisions restricts the selection of high level experts to be appointed by the

Report on the need for EU-wide
sustainability criteria for solid and gaseous
biomass and if appropriate a proposal to
address this.
ENER
mars 2012
The general objective is to achieve the EU target of increasing the share of
renewable energy to 20% by 2020 and contribute to reducing GHG emissions.The
specific objectives are to: i) to optimize GHG savings and prevent adverse land
use change, such as deforestation, and negative impacts on biodiversity and the
environment; ii) to lift barriers to biomass trade and prevent potential disruptions
and distortions to the internal market; iii) to ensure industry is given the certainty in
investment conditions they need in order to meet the 2020 renewable energy
target and deliver security of supply and green jobs benefits. The fulfilment of
these objectives will contribute to ensure public endorsement for the use of
biomass in electricity and heat generation.
The implementing measures, in the form of binding network codes, will be the
result of a procedure that is defined in the Third Internal Energy Market Package,
to bring market integration forward. Through a structure in which the Commission
defines priorities, the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER)
develops framework guidelines, and the European Network of Transmission
System Operators (ENTSO) draws up network codes, detailed rules will be
proposed through comitology that will harmonise the network access and
operations in the EU. This will facilitate cross-border access to markets and lead
to enhanced market integration.

To aim of the GP is to achieve a more accurate picture of the current situation of
the availability, use and needs of phosporus, seeking to identify future trends and
possible policy measures that could lead to efficiency gains throughout the
phosphorus cycle.
Green Infrastructure combines the maintenance and restoration of ecosystems
with the provision of a service they perform (i.e. water retention and purification,
carbon sequestration). Further to the introduction of the concept in the 2009 White
Paper on Climate Change Adaptation and as a follow up of the 2010 Biodiversity
Communication, the objective of this initiative would be to (a) propose a common
understanding at EU level on the concept of Green Infrastructure; (b) help to
promote its further implementation in a consistent way (in particular in the context
of EU-funded investments – e.g. regional policy and CAP funding and (c) facilitate
exchange of good practices.

Traité sur l'Union européenne:
articles 77 and 218
The draft Council Regulation presented by the Commission amending Regulation
(EC) No. 539/2001 listing the third countries whose nationals must be in
possession of visas when crossing the external borders of Member States and
those whose nationals are exempt from that requirement provides the transfer of
certain third countries from Annex I (negative list) to Annex II (positive list). The
implementation of this transfer shall be depended on the conclusion of visa waiver
agreements with these countries. If the Council adopts the draft Council
Regulation the Commission shall consequently present mandates for the
negotiation of a visa waiver agreements between the EC and these countries
Evaluate the application of the AVMS Directive (every 3 years) and, possibly,
make new legislative proposals if appropriate. The report will also evaluate if the
quantitative and qualitative rules related to TV advertising accompanying or
included in children's programmes have afforded the level of protection required.
The overall objective of the strategy is to provide an EU-wide strategic
framework that will allow coping with the amplitude, the global and changing nature
of the use of new technologies by young people in Europe. It will aim at making
children more responsible and informed users of ICT while at the same time
providing them with the best protection means and fighting against illegal
practices. The overall objective would enable young generations to acquire
deeper insights on global challenges and events and develop essential skills
contributing to Europe 2020 objectives of 'smart and inclusive growth'. This
objective is in line with the overall objective of the Digital Agenda for Europe as a
"digital European".
The Commission Recommendation to the Member States will outline what the
Commission expects from them in terms of the access to and management of
publications and data, and in particular their policies in relation to open access.
The Communication will set out the actions that the Commission intends to take
itself on open access to publications and data in its management of research
projects funded by the Union budget, and set this and the actions required from
the MS in the Recommendation in the general context of access to and
preservation of scientific information.
Provide Member States “MS” with guidance in the application of universal service
in a broadband environment, regarding in particular the new Recital 5 of the
Citizens' Rights Directive (CRD), which recognises MS' flexibility in certain
circumstances to include broadband connections within universal service
obligations and decide on the speed of connection, in the light of national
conditions. The guidance would cover the following elements: confirmation of the
role of the universal service rules under the revised EU regulatory framework as a
means to tackle the risk of social exclusion; criteria to be applied when MS
consider whether to include broadband access within the scope of Universal
Service; the principles and procedures applicable to the designation of universal
service providers in the MS.
The purpose of this Communication would be to report on the actions undertaken
in response to the Competitiveness Council conclusions from December 2009 on
the Communication "Moving the ICT Frontiers: strategy for research on future and
emerging technologies in Europe" and to identify the challenges ahead. The
Communication would in particular reinforce the links between Future and
Emerging Technologies (FET) research and major policy challenges.
To take stock of progress made on actions and targets of DAE
(1) Delineation of the scope of interoperability information to be covered
(protocols, API’s and file formats etc) and the market segmentation; (2) Legal
frame: what can be done; (3) Typical licensing terms and conditions that could be
standardised.

Communication on guidelines for
standards-based public procurement of
ICT systems
Communication based on reports to be provided by the national authorities on the
application of Art. 13, 16 and 17 of the AVMS Directive in each Member State.
Objective: to monitor the promotion of European and independent works in EU
television and on-demand audiovisual media services.
To provide NRAs with guidance on how to calculate prices for selected access
products (imposed under Art.12 of Access Directive) enabling alternative
operators to get access to the networks of dominant operators. Currently, cost
methodologies and cost bases used by NRAs differ widely, leading to inconsistent
access prices in the EU. The key objective is to achieve consistent access pricing
across Member States in order to avoid and/or remove barriers to market
integration.
To provide NRAs with guidance on how to tailor the obligation of nondiscrimination (Art. 10 of Access Directive) in relation to access by alternative
operators to the networks of dominant operators. This includes the "last-resort"
remedy of functional separation (Art.13a of Access Directive). The key objective is
to achieve a (currently lacking) consistent imposition of conditions of
equivalence on access providers across Member States.
Following on the (2009)479 Communication "A public-private partnership on the
Future Internet", the planned Communication will identify progress made to date,
report on the implementation to date of the Future Internet-Public Private
Partnership (FI-PPP); other Future Internet (FI) research, Future Internet MS
activities and joint programming, and Future Internet innovation. A set of options
will identify next steps for European FI policy and the way forward for 2013 – 2018
The purpose of the accompanying Staff Working Paper will aim to identify
challenges/bottlenecks facing EU industry on the web, carry out a gap analysis,
and identify priority actions that could strengthen the competitiveness of EU
economy on the web.
Report on EU coordination and follow-up actions based on WRC-12
A follow-up action of the Communication on Telemedicine COM(2008)689 final –
to publish an analysis of the Community legal framework applicable to
telemedicine services. The objective of this initiative is to provide legal clarity to
telemedicine. This will be achieved mainly through the following steps: raising
awareness about the existence of Community legislation which, although not being
exclusively dedicated to telemedicine, is applicable to this area; analysing the
provisions of this legislation applicable to telemedicine.
Open the possibility for undertakings to trade or lease spectrum rights of use in
the same bands in all Member States, as made possible by Article 9b(1) and (3) of
the revised Framework Directive.
In accordance with Article 4 of the amended e-Privacy Directive (2002/58/EC)
the Commission may adopt technical implementing measures on the
circumstances, format and procedures for the information and notification
obligations relating to personal data breaches, following broad consultations and a
comitology procedure.
The bands 1900-1980 MHz, 2010-2025 MHz, 2110-2170 MHz (the 2 GHz band)
are currently used in Europe to deploy UMTS networks. The 2 GHz band is also
one of the bands, where the Commission, in close cooperation with the Member
States, plans to implement technology and service neutrality through the
application of the WAPECS concept. This would result in a technical
harmonisation Decision on the 2 GHz band pursuant to the provisions of the Radio
Spectrum Decision, establishing least restrictive technical conditions for the use of
this band throughout Europe.
The objective of the Communication is to identify how and ensure that public
authorities make best use of the full range of relevant standards when procuring
hardware, software and IT services, for example by selecting standards which can
be implemented by all interested suppliers, allowing for more competition and
reduced risk of lock-in. Practical guidelines will be included in the Communication.

Fisheries Partnership Agreements (FPAs) are based on a scientific assessment
of stocks which could be exploited by the EU fishing industry in these waters,
taking into account the third country's economic and social interests. Specific
measures of the FPA support a sustainable fisheries policy by the third country.
The proposal authorises the Commission to open and conduct negotiations on
behalf of the EU for the conclusion of an Agreement and a new protocol to the
FPA with Cook Islands setting the fishing opportunities and the financial
contribution.
The Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA) is aimed at ensuring
the long-term conservation and sustainable use of fishery resources other than
tuna in areas falling outside national jurisdictions. The EU has participated in the
work undertaken under the SIOFA Agreement. Pending the necessary ratification
by parties this Agreement is likely to enter into force in 2012. This proposal will
establish the principles and orientations to be followed for the establishment of EU
positions for SIOFA negotiations.
In the framework of Communication COM(2009)466 and the suggested
implementation of the Integrated Maritime Policy in the Mediterranean through a
sub-regional approach, this Communication aims to develop tailor-made actions to
tackle maritime specificities and challenges in this sub-region. This includes taking
stock of existing initiatives, complementing various sectoral actions and giving
prioritisation. This approach could provide an example for other Mediterranean sub
regions.
The Council and EP requested the Commission to submit an evaluation of
progress made within the remit of the EU Integrated Maritime Policy (IMP) by
December 2012. The Report will summarise the activities pursued by the
Commission to reach the 6 strategic priorities defined in 2009: (i) integrated
maritime governance, (ii) cross-cutting policy tools, (iii) definition of the boundaries
of sustainability, (iv) sea-basin strategies, (v) international dimension of the IMP,
(vi) economic growth, employment and innovation.
The regulation is setting the annual fishing opportunities for the Member States
for the commercially most important fish stocks in the Black Sea for 2013.
This Communication should explore the potential of marine energy, apart from
offshore wind, as a contribution to sustainable growth in maritime sectors and
coastal regions, in particular in the Atlantic. To this end, the Communication will
identify risks and opportunities, assess potential and propose actions. It will
contribute to priority policy concerns including energy security, reducing
greenhouse gas emissions and identifying technological export opportunities for
EU businesses.

These guidelines aim at improving the access to cross border services for

The report explains the impact of the changes in the legal and institutional
framework on the delegation of powers to the Commission and how the new
framework fits into the Lamfalussy process. Moreover, it takes stock of the
implementing measures adopted by the Commission on the basis of the preLisbon empowerment provisions and makes a general assessment of the need to
amend these provisions.
The purpose of the report is to review the application of the Third Anti Money
Laundering Directive (2005/60/EC), on the basis of evidence gathered from an
external study, work carried out by the ESAs joint Anti Money Laundering
Committee AMLC), as well as consultations with private stakeholders and Member
State regulators. New international standards will be adopted in February 2012 by
the Financial Action Task Force, and the report will therefore also need to conside
the implications for the EU framework. A new Directive is planned for proposal by
the commission in autumn 2012 – the report will be an important milestone in its
preparation.
In order to ensure that a determination of the equivalence of third country
accounting standards is made in all cases that are relevant to EU markets, the
Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 1569/2007 establishing a definition of
equivalence and a mechanism for the determination of equivalence. The
Commission then adopted a Decision and a Regulation which identified as
equivalent to IFRS the US GAAP, the Japanese GAAP, and accepted financial
statements using the GAAP of China, Canada, India, and South Korea within the
EU on a temporary basis, until 31 December 2011. This prolongation of the
equivalence mechanism (all three acts) would give more time to countries which
had committed to converge or replace their GAAP to IFRS and have made
important progress towards that goal but not yet enough (e.g. India).
The Prospectus Directive 2003/71/EC was recently amended in order to increase
efficiency and legal clarity, enhance investor protection and reduce administrative
burdens. The Commission aims to adopt delegated acts in relation to the format
and modalities to disclose the consent to use the initial prospectus given by the
issuer or the person responsible for drawing up the prospectus to financial
intermediaries placing or subsequently reselling the securities. These delegated
acts will also clarify some of the existing technical requirements. According to the
empowerments granted by the legislator, the Commission is already in the
process of adoption of delegated acts in relation to the format of the final terms to
a base prospectus, to the format and content of the summary and to the
proportionate disclosure regime introduced.
The main issues likely to be covered by the future Treaty are the introduction of
an exception to copyright to be incorporated into the national laws of WIPO MS to
facilitate the availability of books in accessible formats for the benefit of persons
with print disabilities and the subsequent cross-border exchange of accessible
format copies made under the exception

Minimum capital requirements for banks under the CRD are risk sensitive: the
higher the risk, the more capital a bank needs to hold to meet that risk and cover
potential losses. As credit and market risks increase in a downturn, minimum
capital requirements for banks will also increase to meet those higher risks. Banks
may need to raise additional capital to meet these higher requirements at a time
when opportunities for raising capital are scarce and costly. This may potentially
constrain banks' lending capacity into the economy. Article 156 of he CRD
requires the Commission to periodically monitor whether the CRD has significant
effect on the economic cycle and, in the light of the examination, submit a biennial
report to the European Parliament and to the Council together with any appropriate
remedial measures.
Further to a request of the European Parliament, draw up a list of main rights

remuneration, risk management), protection of minority shareholders,
shareholder/investor engagement (short termism, role of asset managers and
proxy advisers, employee share ownership), and general issues concerning the
operation of the "comply or explain" system and monitoring across the Member
States.
The purpose of this green paper is to launch a public consultation on challenges
faced by customers (individual users, SMEs and businesses) in having access to
a reliable and effective delivery of parcel items, with a special focus on cross
borders issues and on the facilitation of delivery of products bought on line. Parcel
delivery, notably cross-border, was identified in the Communication on ecommerce as one of the key obstacle to the development of e-commerce potential
in the single market.

The first initiative revising the Financial Conglomerates Directive (FICOD 1) was
published as a quick fix, because the review revealed lessons learned during the
financial crisis of 2007-2009 and needed to empower supervisors for the observed
gaps. Knowing that there would be more elements to be reviewed as to whether
the Directive is achieving its objective, a second round (FICOD 2) was announced
The FICOD 1 adopted text therefore included a provisions requiring COM to
deliver a review report before 31 December 2012, and a legislative follow up after
that if deemed necessary.

The main policy objective of a European Retail Action Plan is to ensure a
consistent and systemic approach in the treatment of problems identified as
hampering the provision of more efficient and fair retail services in Europe. As
requested by the EP, the Action Plan will not only announce new initiatives in area
identified as problematic but it will also take stock of the ongoing initiatives already
developed by the Commission. This will allow the EU institutions, Member States
and stakeholders to have a general overview of the various ongoing and foreseen
actions in the Retail Sector. The adoption of an Action Plan will also demonstrate
the importance attributed by the Commission to this sector, which is essential for
the EU economy (4.2% of GDP, employing 17.5 million individuals and
representing 20% of European SMEs).
The communication will clarify the rules to ensure that infrastructure charges
(vignettes and tolls) levied on foreign cars are proportional and nondiscriminatory.Experience has shown the need to clarify the treaty rules in this
area.
This Communication will assess the current situation, including current and future
threats, and propose a strategic approach for the next five years for all transport
modes. The objective is to have a properly functioning, transparent transport
system which is secure and well-protected. Terrorism is multimodal and often
international. A harmonised general approach, covering all transport modes, is the
basis for sectoral security effectiveness.

Commission's policy on inland waterway transport but is not endowed with own
budgetary means. The present initiative will define Commission's policy after 2013
In addition to addressing new challenges such as integration into co-modal logistic
transport changes, environmental performance, deployment of new technologies,
it will identify the appropriate budgetary resources since the lack of those has
turned out to be the major shortcoming of the current NAIADES programme.

This is a report on the outcome of the pilot project that assesses the feasibility of
vessel traffic for customspurposes, which are indispensable pre-requesite for
implementing the Blue Belt.
This new communication will update the current interpretative communication in
line with the experience gained during practical application of Regulation and
include recent developments in the EU law and case-law. The communication will
provide additional clarifications on the scope of the Regulation and on the
derogations to the freedom to provide services laid down in the Regulation. Apart
from the clarification the Commission's concern is the transparency. The
Commission has addressed several questions of interpretation of the Regulation
on a bilateral basis. A new communication will present those positions to all
persons interested in application of the Regulation.
To assess the implications of the complete liberalisation of the maritime
cabotage over fifteen years after the entry into force of the regulation. The report
depicts the legal national measures regarding maritime cabotage, market
developments, manning issues and presents the conclusions of the consultation
undertaken by the Commission in 2009.
The main policy objectives of the Communication will be to draw lessons from
the implementation of the EU's external aviation policy as defined in 2005, to
analyse the achievements made since then, to describe the key challenges today
and on this basis assess whether the 2005 policy is still fully appropriate and well
suited to meet the challenges facing the EU in international aviation policy. Based
on this assessment, recommendations may be made as to how best to design the
EU's future external aviation policy.
The initiative should identify the key provisions of the Regulation where diverging
implementation in Member States/regions could jeopardise the achievements of
the objectives of the Regulation and attempt to propose guidance to stakeholders
and authorities on its correct interpretation. The initiative should also identify best
regulatory and contractual practices.
This Communication will present an inventory of past and future measures for
internalising external costs in all modes of transport. Follow-up to the 2011 White
Paper and 2008 Greening transport package.

Airline bankruptcy is a growing concern in the Single European Aviation Market.
A central question is whether consumers, in this Internal Market which is
European, competitive and liberalized, enjoy sufficient and reasonable protection
especially in the case of air carrier bankruptcy. The need for assessment and the
will to take action were confirmed by the European Commission to the European
Parliament in October 2009. The objective of the impact assessment is to assess
whether a new legal instrument, such as a Regulation, is needed to tackle this
issue. The Commission will proceed to an evaluation of various scenarios
presented in a previous study published in January 2009. A complementary public
consultation on air passenger rights (that included airline bankruptcy) has been
closed on 28 June 2010.
Develop a common approach on road traffic injuries and emergency services
(common definitions, injuries reduction target).This could possibly include an EU
injuries reduction target.
As part of the Implementation of the ITS Directive several specifications need to
be adopted between 2012 and 2014. The ITS Directive defines the priority actions
for which the Commission shall adopt specifications, as well as a target timeline
for their adoption. In addition, the Commission, in a Statement to Council and EP,
has provided a detailed indicative timetable for the adoption of these
specifications. - data and procedures for the provision, where possible, of road
safety related minimum universal traffic information free of charge to users (by the

The EURO-ARGO array is the European component of a world wide in situ globa
ocean observing system, based on autonomous profiling floats. The ARGO
objective is to develop a global array of floats (spaced 300 km apart, on average)
throughout the ice-free areas of the deep ocean. The floats are battery powered,
with a design life of between ¾ to 5 years, i.e. about 800 floats must be deployed
per year to maintain the target array. The data are transmitted in real time by
satellite to data centres for processing, management and distribution. The EUROARGO objective is to provide a sustained European contribution to the
international ARGO.

Further to the adoption of the internal control framework concerning the Human
Frontier Science Programme Organisation (HFSPO) (I(2004)22857), the adhesion
of a new country to the HFSPO requires a decision of the College by written
procedure. Historically, the European Union has been a beneficiary of the HFSPO
because the participation of the Commission opens up the possibility to scientists
from all the non-G8 Member States of the EU to participate to the Human Frontier
Science Programme. Further enlargement of the HFSPO is beneficial as it
provides the EU with access to the scientific, human and financial resources of
new members.
C –ERIC is to establish a distributed infrastructure for exploiting the full scientific
potential of the Central European Area in the synchrotron light and other
microscopic probes for analytical and modification techniques, notably for
materials preparation and characterization, structural investigations and imaging in
Biology, Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, Cultural Heritage, Enviroment and
Materials Sciences.
The Agreement will associate Switzerland to Horizon 2020 Framework

The Commission has a legal obligation to report to the European Parliament and
to the Council every three years on the application of the Directive on Injunctions
for the protection of consumers' interest. This will be the second report.
Article 44 (4) and (6) of Regulation (EC) No. 882/2004 require the Commission to
establish and submit to the European Parliament and Council an annual report on
the overall operation of controls in the Member States in the light of (a) the annual
reports submitted by the national authorities; (b) EU audits and inspections carried
out in the Member States; and (c) any other relevant information. This third report
aims to give an overview of the EU system of food safety controls and draws on
the latest information from all three main sources of information on controls (a) the
annual reports from the Member States for 2010; (b) the results of the
Commission’s control activities; (c) other relevant information on controls
The initiative proposes common technical specifications for the organ and donor
characterisation to ensure safer transplantation and improve the quality of organs
exchanged between MS, as well as for the data needs for traceability and
reporting.
The initiative aims to remove barriers to the free movement of patients and
health products by ensuring that the validity of the prescriber from one MS can
easily be verified in all MS, by ensuring safe therapeutic substitution when the
prescribed product in one member state is not available in another member state
and by monitoring the number of patients and dispensers concerned by crossborder prescriptions.
The Scoreboard provides a regular monitoring that is designed to identify which
markets are malfunctioning in terms of economic and social outcomes for
consumers, and where intervention may be needed. In-depth market studies into
the malfunctioning markets are then carried out.

l'Union européenne: Art. 168
Implementation of a requirement of the Directive 2004/23/EC on human tissues
and cells. Introduces a new non binding mechanism to facilitate European and
international traceability of human tissues and cells.

of 24 May 2009 on expenditure in the veterinary field which stipulates that every
four years, the Commission shall submit to the European Parliament and to the
Council a report on the animal health situation and cost-effectiveness of the
implementation of programmes in the various Member States, including details of
the criteria adopted.
The market for internet service provision (ISP) will undergo an in-depth market
study that will be based on results of the 4th edition of the Consumer Markets
Scoreboard and indications stemming from the political context. The
Communication and related market study will assess the nature of consumer
problems, the extent of the phenomena and what remedies and policy initiatives
should be envisaged.
The report will describe the influence of genetic parameters on identified
deficiencies resulting in poor welfare of chickens. It will also identify potential
options to improve the situation such as the use of animal welfare indicators.

semiconductors that integrate other elements (e.g. sensors, lenses) with the chip.
They are a particular strength of European industry and are not covered by the
Information Technology Agreement (ITA) of 1997. The purpose is to establish duty
free treatment with main trading partners (United States, Japan, China, Korea and
Taiwan) similar to what has been done with the MCP Agreement of 2006 (multichip).
The policy objective is to review (and emphasise) the IPR strategy of the
Commission towards third countries, so as to confirm its legitimacy, make it more
visible to EU institutions, industry and other right holders, authorities of third
countries, and other stakeholders such as NGOs. Ultimately, the objective is to
reduce the level of IPR infringements outside the EU, which detrimentally affect
EU right holders in third countries, while considering in a better balanced way
specific situations such as that of developing countries.

Following entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty which confers to the EU an
exclusive competence on foreign direct investment, the EU will seek to obtain from
our trading partners the best possible standards of protection for EU investors and
investments, to ensure that they are able to operate in a stable, fair and
predictable environment. The ongoing negotiations with negotiating partners are
considered to present a valuable opportunity to improve the potential benefits of
future agreements by broadening the existing scope of negotiations on
investment. The proposed modifications are therefore intended to authorise the
Commission to engage in comprehensive negotiations on investment, covering
investment protection with this partner.

comprise general provisions as well as specific provisions on areas such as Trade
in goods, Services, Government procurement, Competition, Trade defence,

Following entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty which confers to the EU an
exclusive competence on foreign direct investment, the EU may seek to obtain
from its negotiating partners – in addition to investment market access - the best
possible standards of protection for its investors and investments, to ensure that
they are able to operate in a stable, fair and predictable environment. The best
prospects for integration of investment protection into the common commercial
policy arises in ongoing trade negotiations, where the EU has so far focused on
market access for investors only. But the EU should also explore the desirability
and feasibility of stand-alone investment agreements with countries which receive
a high proportion of EU investments and with whom wider trade negotiations are
not envisaged in the foreseeable future

The Joint Communication will propose concrete measures for the EU (and other
partners) to support more effectively Pacific Island Countries and Territories in
attaining the Millennium Development Goals, while tackling climate change and
natural disasters challenges. The Joint Communication will recall that strong
partnership with the Pacific is of strategic importance for EU's external action and
will make the "Pacific case" to EU Member States, to attract their bilateral climate
change funds and offer them enhanced visibility for their contributions within a
coordinated and financially substantial EU-wide initiative. This renewed and
enhanced EU-wide engagement in the Pacific is expected to be the reference for a
long-term strategy ensuring coherence and continuity in EU support.
Following consecutive EU-LAC Summits (Madrid, 2002; Guadalajara 2006 and
Vienna, 2006), it was agreed to negotiate a comprehensive Association
Agreement between the European Union and the Andean Community. The
Commission adopted draft negotiating directives in December 2006 and the latter
were approved by the Council in April 2007. The negotiations were launched in
June 2007 and the first round took place in September 2007. The Association
Agreement aims at consolidating and strengthening the relations of both regions in
respect of their political dialogue, cooperation and trade
