".
Bearing in mind that the intention of the report is to contribute to the debate on the future of the EU’s cohesion policy, we must point out our disagreement with some significant aspects of the report, as follows:
the idea that the granting of funds as part of cohesion policy is conditional on compliance with economic performance criteria established at Community level, as a means of exerting extra pressure on the way in which Member States define their social and economic policies;
the establishment of mandatory ceilings on the manner in which structural funds, either at Community level or in the Member States, are to be used, for example ‘to earmark at least 20% of the structural funds for promoting R+D+I’;
promoting the use of the structural funds for financing private investment by means of what are referred to as private-public partnerships;
the use of new cohesion indicators, namely employment, the level of disparities in GDP between neighbouring regions, decentralisation and accessibility index, infrastructure and transport provision, the level of research/innovation, education and training activity and the diversity of production, without safeguarding the idea that GDP per capita must continue to be used as the base indicator of eligibility when it comes to EU cohesion policy."@en1
