"Science, education and innovation are pillars of economic growth and job creation. Europe must invest in innovation if it is to develop new products and services. Research and innovation are at the heart of the Europe 2020 strategy. However, it is particularly difficult for smaller organisations – SMEs, high-tech start-ups and smaller institutes, universities and research centres – to cope with the procedural complexity involved in accessing the funds earmarked for this sector. The scientific community is urgently calling for harmonisation of the rules and procedures and for a general simplification of the financial accountability requirements. Recently, 13 000 researchers put their names to a petition requesting greater simplification and trust in EU research funding. It is certainly necessary to simplify the mechanisms involved in the framework programmes for research, technological development and demonstration activities, FP7 and FP8 and all the European Commission science and innovation programmes.
I believe that far more research activities are needed to measure the impact of environment and climate policies on employment and I ask the Commission to make this area a priority as part of the Eighth Framework Programme."@en1
