"Madam President, Commissioner, I appreciate the Commission’s attempts at simplification, setting clear objectives and what you call mainstreaming, but there is no need for us to reinvent the wheel. If something works, then it just works and you do not need to approach it from a different angle or start calling it by a different name. In that case, we can just keep it exactly as it is.
The Intelligent Energy Europe programme did work, as you said, because it had a real impact on citizens and SMEs. Indeed, as previous speakers have already said, getting x much closer to having a true European Union is going to take x amount of time, and that applies when it comes to this issue, as well. Your fellow Commissioner, Oettinger, said that yesterday, too. He said that the programme had definitely already been planned and that he would let us know during the week under which line. However, it seems to me that we have actually been caused a small amount of unnecessary inconvenience. From now on, I would like to know these things in advance and I would like to know precisely what this and that means.
Could you perhaps tell us exactly under which facility this programme is going to be set up, the exact size of the budget that is going to be allocated to it and precisely what its objectives are going to be? Will it be expanded and how do you intend to measure its effectiveness in future? Above all, are we going to see it re-emerge, for example, under the next Multiannual Financial Framework or the next Horizon programme? Can we not just keep these kinds of programmes as they are?
Moreover, I would just like to add that a great deal of attention has also been devoted to research in the Horizon 2020 programme, as well; that is a good thing. This is the very kind of programme – the kind which is very practical and which benefits SMEs – of which we currently have far too few, so that is an area we need to pay more attention to."@en1
