"I welcome the attempt to simplify the budget policy rules from an administrative and financing perspective during the individual programme and project phases (submission of applications, evaluation and management), which the participants should benefit from as a matter of priority. Science and research are uncertain processes incorporating a specific risk, and funding based on results can restrict the aims of research projects to less risky projects and market-oriented research, which would frustrate top-level, cutting-edge research in the EU. Excessively strict interpretation of the financial regulation in recent years has unfortunately led to a general attempt to avoid risks and to a complete absence of trust in the participants in research programmes, reducing the effectiveness of implementation. The funding of European research should be based more on mutual trust and responsible partnership, tolerating risk in relation to participants in all phases, and with flexible EU rules applied in accordance with national rules and procedures. The evaluation of funding in the field of research should be based on the nature of the research and focused on top quality, importance and impact. Simplification is not a separate aim, but a means to ensuring the attractiveness and availability of EU funding intended for research. The simplification measures should also make it easier to limit errors."@en1
