".
The Commission’s proposal reduces the number of urban areas that could benefit from the new URBAN programme in the period 2000-2006 from more than 100 to only 50. It also reduces appropriations by 30%.
Portugal will suffer unfairly as a result of this proposal, in spite of the fact that it already has greater needs in this area than any other country in the European Union. There has been a reduction in that only two projects will be financed whereas in Germany, ten have been planned, nine in the United Kingdom and eight in Italy.
So far, Portugal has had six projects financed, on behalf of the municipal authorities of Oporto, Gondomar, Lisbon, Odivelas, Oeiras and Amadora.
It is therefore crucial that the Commission review its position, particularly in terms of the way in which it allocates projects to Portugal, in order to maintain the important task of providing social and economic renewal for urban and suburban areas which will guarantee sustainable urban development."@en1
