"I voted in favour of this recommendation because the Council adopted its position at first reading, which is based on the agreement negotiated after Parliament’s first reading. Special attention is given in the Commission’s proposal to the added value of this label as compared to other initiatives within the field of cultural heritage. The label is not about a site’s beauty or its architectural quality, but rather its symbolic value for European integration and the history of the Union. It is not about conservation of sites in itself, but rather about the activities they can offer and their educational dimension, especially for young people. Finally, it will help labelled sites become more effective through working together. The European Parliament and the Council have agreed that each Member State may pre-select up to two sites, a national and a transnational site, every two years. The coordinating country only applies a quota for the transnational site so as not to discourage Member States from actually taking part in these site initiatives. A panel of independent experts will choose a maximum of one site per country to be eligible for the label."@en1
