IMP@I@@S2@Implementation :@S1@@I@The Commission is responsible for the implementation IMP of the programme through specific programmes. Each specific programme IMP shall determine its precise objectives and provide for an evaluation IMP of the results achieved. IMP IMP The detailed rules for financial participation by the Community in IMP the programme as a whole shall be those provided for by the Financial IMP Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European IMP Communities. Under the terms of the Maastricht Treaty, the programme IMP will be funded within the bounds of the "maximum overall amount" set IMP by the legislative authority. The proposed allocation of ECU 14,700 IMP million is in line with the contents of the Commission's IMP communication COM(92) 2001 of 10 March 1992 on the financial IMP perspectives for the period 1993-1997. However, the final decision on IMP the financial perspectives may lead to modifications in the proposed IMP allocation. IMP IMP The conditions for financial participation by the Community are as IMP follows: IMP - Research and development projects carried out by outside IMP contractors: IMP . Participation in research costs, with a ceiling of 50% of costs, or IMP in the case of universities and similar organizations, 100% of the IMP additional costs; IMP . For projects of a specifically industrial nature (demonstration IMP projects, prototypes, etc.), contribution linked to the research IMP results of a predetermined amount within the ceilings determined by IMP the Community for this type of project; IMP .

IMP - Concerted actions consisting in the coordination of research and IMP development projects may receive a contribution of up to 100% of the IMP costs of concertation; IMP - Research activities carried out by the Joint Research Centre (JRC) IMP will in principle be fully funded. IMP IMP Research and development projects and concerted actions carried out IMP by outside contractors will be covered by: IMP - As a general rule, calls for proposals published in the Official IMP Journal of the European Communities followed, where appropriate, by IMP invitations for participation; IMP - Participation by at least two contractors, each independent of the IMP other and established in different Member States or in states fully IMP associated with the specific programme, on condition that at least IMP one of the contractors is established in a Member State; IMP - Contracts detailing the relevant financial and administrative IMP arrangements. IMP IMP Exemptions to these rules may be made only under the conditions set IMP out in each specific programme. IMP IMP During the third year of execution of the programme the Commission IMP shall assess its progress and communicate the findings of this IMP assessment to the Council and the European Parliament. When IMP implementation of the programme has been completed, a new evaluation IMP shall be made. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@The Commission's communication "Research after GEN Maastricht: an assessment, a strategy" (SEC(92) 682 of 7.4.1992) GEN contains the full analysis and grounds on which the fourth Framework GEN programme should be based. In light of this assessment, the GEN Commission is proposing that in the years ahead RTD should be guided GEN by a dual policy of continuity and novelty. While pursuing GEN traditional programmes, with the necessary adaptations, it intends in GEN future to increase the impact of Community RTD activity on European GEN competitiveness by concentrating efforts on a small number of key GEN technologies of major industrial interest. The fourth Framework GEN programme will give the JRC the means to maintain and consolidate its GEN expertise and its research, but the major part of the increase GEN proposed relates to RTD conducted under shared-cost actions, that is, GEN to research conducted in Member States. GEN GEN The scope of this fourth Framework programme has been determined on GEN the basis of one of the most important new RTD provisions introduced GEN in the Maastricht Treaty. Under this provision the programme is to GEN encompass all Community RTD activities, whatever their form and under GEN whichever common policy they fall, including basic research, basic GEN industrial research, applied research and technological development, GEN and demonstration projects. However, all these activities are GEN explicitly confined to the pre-competitive stage. GEN GEN Also to be included are measures which until now have been GEN implemented outside the programme and named APAS ("Action de GEN preparation, d'accompagnement et de suivi"). The most obvious case is GEN international scientific cooperation. Measures which until now have GEN been executed on an annual basis will now be subject to multiannual GEN planning. The same will apply to measures with a multiannual horizon, GEN such as SPRINT, and the horizontal measures needed to define, GEN implement and support RTD policy (studies, exploratory and evaluation GEN activities, promotion, support and coordination activities). Measures GEN which are not significant in size and are based on a demand that GEN varies from year to year (e.g. JRC technical support services to GEN other Commission Directorates-General) will be included in the GEN programme and implemented with the procedural flexibility required. GEN GEN The programme will be structured according to the four main GEN activities described in Article 130g of the Maastricht Treaty: GEN Implementation of RTD and demonstration programmes by promoting GEN cooperation with and between undertakings, research centres and GEN universities; promotion of cooperation in the field of Community RTD GEN and demonstration with third countries and international GEN organizations; dissemination and optimization of the results of GEN activities in Community RTD and demonstration; stimulation of the GEN training and mobility of researchers in the Community. The contents GEN of each of these activities are set out in the Commission's working GEN document on the programme (COM(92) 406 of 9.10.1992) as a series of GEN core thematic areas, the technical details of which will be given in GEN specific programmes. GEN GEN The Maastricht Treaty maintains the principle of the dual legislative GEN procedure introduced by the Single Act, i.e. adoption of the GEN Framework programme as a whole followed by the adoption of the GEN individual specific programmes. However, the Treaty introduces GEN important innovations compared with the Single Act, namely: GEN - The Decision on the programme must be adopted by the Council, GEN acting unanimously, under the co-decision procedure with the European GEN Parliament; GEN - The Decisions adopting specific programmes are adopted by a GEN qualified majority in the Council after consulting the European GEN Parliament; GEN - The rules for the participation of undertakings, research centres GEN and universities, as well as rules governing the dissemination of GEN research results, will no longer be adopted at the same time as each GEN of the specific programme but will be the object of a single Council GEN Decision to be adopted in cooperation with the European Parliament.

IMP@I@@S2@Implementation :@S1@@I@The Commission is responsible for implementing the IMP Council Decision on the European Year, assisted by a Steering IMP Committee of an advisory nature composed of a representative from IMP each Member State and chaired by the representative of the IMP Commission. National coordinating committees, composed on a IMP tripartite basis, act in liaison with the Advisory Committee on IMP Safety, Hygiene and Health Protection at Work. IMP IMP An amount of ECU 12 million is estimated as necessary to implement IMP the Decision. At least 50% of this amount is to be used to cofinance IMP actions by public and/or private organizations, up to a maximum of IMP 70% of the total costs of each action. The remainder will be used to IMP finance the total costs of actions by the Community, the Member IMP States and the social partners. IMP IMP The Commission shall inform the European Parliament, the Council, the IMP Economic and Social Committee and the Advisory Committee for Safety, IMP Hygiene and Health Protection at Work of the progress of the actions IMP carried out. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@In its Decision of 25 July 1991 (Official Journal No GEN L 214 of 2.8.1991), the Council declared 1992 to be "European Year GEN for Safety, Hygiene and Health at Work", starting on 1 March 1992 and GEN ending on 28 February 1993. This Decision was taken on the basis of GEN Article 118a of the Single European Act and with reference to the GEN Community's third action programme in the field of safety, hygiene GEN and health at work (1987-1992) GEN GEN Article 118a of the Single European Act enables action at Community GEN level as regards the improvement of the working environment to be GEN intensified and expanded in order to protect the safety and health of GEN workers. It provides in particular for the improvement of safety and GEN health conditions at work, which constitute an essential feature of GEN the social dimension of the internal market. In this context the GEN European Year aims to underscore the interdependence of the social GEN and economic aspects of problems relating to safety, hygiene and GEN health at work, and to help make young people, workers and employers GEN more aware of risks at the workplace and of what can be done about GEN them. GEN GEN Data available at Member State level give a good idea of the high GEN cost in human and social terms of the consequences of accidents at GEN work and occupational illnesses. For 1984 the amount of compensation GEN paid for such accidents and illnesses is put at some ECU 16,000 GEN million for the whole Community, i.e. 7% of total expenditure on GEN sickness insurance. GEN GEN The Advisory Committee on Safety, Hygiene and Health Protection at GEN Work recommended that the European Year take particular account of GEN the following four topics: GEN - Cleanliness of air at work; GEN - Safety at work; GEN - Well-being at work; GEN - Measures to combat noise and vibration.

IMP IMP An annual work programme, together with a report on results achieved, IMP is forwarded by the Commission to the Council, the European IMP Parliament and the Economic and Social Committee. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@In their Resolution of 29 May 1986 on a programme of GEN action of the European Communities on toxicology for health GEN protection (Official Journal No C 184 of 23.7.1986), the Council and GEN the representatives of the Governments of the Member States expressed GEN the political will to take the measures required to that by the end GEN of 1990 a series of priority actions in the field of toxicology could GEN be undertaken. GEN GEN The main purpose of the programme is toxicology aimed at health GEN protection through the prevention of diseases which can be caused by GEN exposure to toxic substances. The work carried out between 1986 and GEN the end of 1990 brought to light the increasing importance of a GEN targeted approach to deteriorations in organs or biological systems GEN as a whole and will be taken into account in future work aimed at GEN improving the means of early detection of conditions which are GEN conducive to the development of diseases. GEN GEN The programme has paid particular attention to the deterioration of GEN early biochemical and physiological parameters in the immune, renal GEN and reproductive systems. This is essential for the detection of GEN pathological deviations and may be a great help in combating GEN large-scale epidemics. GEN GEN Meeting on 15 May 1992, the Council and the Ministers of health of GEN the Member States, having examined the Commission's communication on GEN the programme (COM(91) 341 of 30.9.1991) and having taken note of the GEN results achieved, called on the Commission to disseminate these GEN results widely, to complete work in progress and, in light of the GEN experience acquired, to identify, if appropriate, action regarding GEN toxicology which might be implemented in the context of future GEN Community health policies (Official Journal No C 148 of 12.6.1992).

IMP@I@@S2@Implementation :@S1@@I@The Commission is responsible for the implementation IMP of the programme. IMP IMP The programme is the subject of joint financing by the Member States IMP and the Community. In eligible areas the total contribution by the IMP European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) during the 1991-1993 period IMP is estimated at ECU 200 million. Loans from the European Investment IMP Bank (EIB) may also be made available under certain conditions to IMP finance part of the costs not covered by the Structural Funds.. IMP IMP The amount of Community support given to the operational programmes IMP (OPs) depends on their quality and on the population of the eligible IMP regions. In assessing the quality of the programmes, the Commission IMP takes into account in particular the following points: IMP - Their contribution to the development of the areas concerned and IMP the integration of the Community market; IMP - Monitoring and evaluation methods, defined in agreement with the IMP Commission; IMP - The additionality of financial resources available to TELEMATIQUE IMP compared to those presently foreseen in the Community Support IMP Frameworks for similar purposes, and other national spending in the IMP fields concerned. IMP IMP In the preparation and implementation of programmes, the Commission IMP provides the technical assistance required to ensure that the systems IMP are adapted to the needs of the regions and SMEs, given the existing IMP infrastructure and networks. The Member State and the Commission IMP define jointly the monitoring and assessment methods. A Monitoring IMP Committee, representing the regions, the Member State and the IMP Commission, is set up for each OP. IMP IMP Member States, taking into account the proposals of regional IMP authorities, businesses and bodies concerned, were required to submit IMP detailed proposals for OPs before 25 July 1991. The Commission may IMP not take account of proposals received after that date. However, IMP after the adoption of an OP, individual projects meeting the criteria IMP of the OP may still be submitted to the relevant authorities. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@For the period 1989-1993, resources amounting to more GEN than ECU 60 billion are available, via the three European Funds GEN (ERDF, ESF, EAGGF-Guidance section), for the structural actions of GEN the Community. The major part of these resources is allocated to the GEN Community Support Frameworks (CSF), multi-annual agreements signed GEN between Member States and the Commission of the European Communities, GEN on the basis of which operational programmes can be implemented. In GEN addition, ECU 5.5 billion have been reserved for Community GEN Initiatives, and ECU 300 million for Pilot Projects. GEN GEN TELEMATIQUE is one of the Community Initiatives, adopted by the GEN Commission on 25 January 1991 within the meaning of Article 11 of GEN Regulation (EEC) No 4253/88 concerning the restructuration of the GEN Structural Funds. It aims to develop, around specific objectives, the GEN process set in motion by the STAR initiative (1987-1991) by GEN encouraging small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to use services GEN linked to advanced telecommunications systems. It is also designed to GEN assist SMEs located in Objective 1 areas to initiate or develop such GEN services. Finally, it is intended to promote the development in the GEN public sector of services for data communication likely to contribute GEN to regional development. GEN GEN The emphasis is on services, and not on investments in infrastructure GEN which are considered only where they are directly linked to the GEN promotion of the services targeted by the initiative. The overall GEN purpose is to exploit, in the fast-changing area of advanced GEN telecommunications services, the potential of an integrated European GEN market in order to contribute to strengthening the Community's GEN economic and social cohesion.

GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@This second phase of the TEDIS programme continues GEN and expands the activities carried out under the initial two-year GEN programme (1988-1989). GEN GEN During its first phase TEDIS coordinated a number of projects GEN launched at the initiative of various sectors of European industry GEN with the aim of implementing EDI, such as ODETTE (European motor GEN industry), CEFIC-EDI (chemical industry), EDICICE (electronics and GEN computer industries), EAN-COM (distribution and retail trade), RINET GEN (reinsurance), TEDIS Transport Group, etc. It has provided logistical GEN support for these industrial groupings and encourages the transfer of GEN information between them. GEN GEN TEDIS has made a substantial contribution to the unification of GEN standards by the support of EDIFACT. Through the secretariat of the GEN EDIFACT Board, it has helped to encourage work on bringing GEN international standards on EDI into line by taking an active part and GEN giving its support to the work of the Western European EDIFACT Board. GEN The Commission EDIFACT Board Information System (CEBIS) has also been GEN developed under the programme to assist the work of the EDIFACT GEN board. GEN GEN Close ties have been forged with national committees for the GEN simplification of trade procedures (COMPROS). TEDIS participates in GEN the meetings of these bodies to coordinate initiatives on EDI. GEN Furthermore, an "EDIFORUM" has been set up in a number of Member GEN States and good relations have been established with these.

Experts cooperating GEN in TIDE come from industries of all sizes, university and handicap GEN research institutes, and organizations representing the disabled and GEN elderly people. GEN GEN Work in TIDE conforms to five main principles: GEN - Market orientation: GEN Projects should emphasize taking advantage of the opportunities GEN presented by the completion of the Single Market and lead in the GEN short term to the development of technology based prototype products GEN and services with good commercial potential; GEN - Technology adaptation and innovation: GEN Emphasis is on innovation and the adaptation and advanced application GEN of new technology and its integration with appropriate international GEN standards; GEN - Multi-disciplinary approach: GEN Projects will harness the scarce scientific, technical and commercial GEN resources in the Member States, providing significant added value GEN from pan-European cooperation, with due account taken of the social, GEN economic and regulatory context of the technical work; GEN - Technology verification: GEN Assistive technology is to be evaluated with real (potential) GEN consumers in field trials or by using scenarios; GEN - User-focused approach: GEN Users are involved in projects, and projects should deliver GEN statements of end user requirements and make statements of GEN anticipated benefits of the technological solutions to the end users. GEN GEN All technology projects are expected to participate in the TIDE GEN initiative horizontal activities, including consensus, market study, GEN cost benefit and effectiveness and standardization.

IMP IMP Concerted actions consist of action by the Community to coordinate IMP the individual activities carried out in the Member States. They may IMP benefit from funding of up to 100% of coordinating expenditure. IMP IMP The accompanying measures will be implemented through: IMP - The organization of seminars, workshops and scientific conferences; IMP IMP - Internal coordination through the creation of integrating groups; IMP - Independent scientific and strategic evaluation of the operation of IMP the projects and the action; IMP - Contributions to studies and enquiries. IMP IMP In the course of the second year of implementation the Commission IMP shall review the action and forward a report to the Council, the IMP European Parliament and the Economic and Social Committee. At the end IMP of the action, an evaluation of the results shall be conducted by a IMP group of independent experts and submitted to these same bodies, IMP together with the Commission's comments. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@By its Decision 90/221/Euratom, EEC, of 23 April 1990 GEN (Official Journal No L 117 of 8.5.1990) the Council adopted a third GEN Framework programme for Community activities in the field of research GEN and technological development (1990-1994). Article 4 of the Decision GEN stipulated that measures to disseminate the knowledge gained from, GEN and to exploit the results of, the specific R&D programmes under the GEN Framework programme should be implemented, on the one hand, through GEN the programmes themselves and, on the other, by means of a GEN centralized action. The Decision included for this action an amount GEN of ECU 57 million, drawn proportionally from each specific programme GEN and representing 1% of the amount deemed necessary for the whole GEN Framework programme. GEN GEN The centralized action, details of which are set forth in Council GEN Decision 92/272/EEC of 29 April 1992, provides the necessary GEN continuity for some of the measures carried out under the 1989-1993 GEN VALUE programme. It also introduces new topics concerned particularly GEN with the repercussions of RTD activities and their results on society GEN as a whole. GEN GEN Under the action a network of relay centres will be set up to promote GEN the dissemination and exploitation of Community R&D results. Taking GEN into account and building on the existing structures in Member States GEN designed for the same purpose, these will have special access to GEN Community information, under the control of the Commission, and will GEN have as their main task the tailoring and interpretation of this GEN information to local needs. GEN GEN Another aim of the centralized action will be to update and expand GEN the CORDIS computerized information service. It is foreseen that the GEN service may provide new functions, use new sources of information, GEN harmonize and/or integrate databases, use electronic storage devices GEN (CD-ROM and video discs) and develop user-friendly systems for GEN electronic data exchange in cooperation with related Community GEN programmes. The development of computerized methods does not exclude GEN the use of more traditional methods (e.g. publication of bulletins GEN and bibliographies) to provide wider access to information services. GEN GEN The centralized action is to be conducted in accordance with the GEN following guiding principles: GEN - Horizontality: GEN Measures to publish and utilize research results must apply to the GEN whole range of Community R&D activities covered by the Framework GEN programme. This criterion will be implemented through coordination GEN and liaison between RTD specific programmes and the centralized GEN action; GEN - Internal complementarity: GEN The centralized action will coordinate and supplement the measures GEN taken under the specific RTD programmes and will also concentrate on GEN activities requiring special infrastructure and skills or special GEN capabilities for transferring know-how to fields of activity in other GEN disciplines; GEN - Subsidiarity: GEN The centralized action will build on the synergies between GEN decentralized (public and private) and Community R&D activities and GEN is designed to establish a coherent mechanism for the utilization and GEN transfer of the technologies and the know-how obtained from these GEN activities, using wherever possible the existing structures in Member GEN States.

GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@This second phase of the IMPACT programme continues GEN and extends the activities begun under the 1988-1990 phase. GEN GEN One of the major changes in IMPACT 2 as compared with IMPACT 1 is a GEN shift in emphasis from the supply side to the demand side of the GEN information services market. Thus the central theme chosen for the GEN new phase is "Info Euro Access", i.e. to improve the accessibility of GEN information at the European level for all interested parties. In this GEN context activities undertaken by the programme will aim to stimulate GEN and develop the information services market in Europe by removing GEN barriers and stimulating European initiatives. Technology will play a GEN key role, but the development of new technologies is not a major GEN objective. GEN GEN The European Information Market Observatory (IMO) will continue and GEN extend the scope of its activities for the identification of the GEN Community's strengths and weaknesses in the sector in order to keep GEN Community institutions and Member States informed in drawing up their GEN policy. During the initial phase of IMPACT, the IMO focused its GEN investigations on the supply of database services. These GEN investigations will be enlarged to include neighbouring publishing GEN markets, with particular attention to the market for business and GEN trade press and for scientific, technical and medical publishing. A GEN permanent inventory of existing market data sources will be kept and GEN additional surveys will be launched or stimulated when the data GEN required are not available, incomplete or unreliable. The intention GEN of the IMO is to supplement, and not to supplant, the efforts of GEN Member States, private sector companies and other organizations. GEN GEN With regard to legal and administrative barriers, one category of GEN work will contribute to the improvement of the coordination of GEN sectoral initiatives on legal problems of a horizontal nature (e.g. GEN protection of privacy, responsibility, intellectual property, proof GEN and authentication of electronic signatures). Actions will be GEN undertaken to reinforce the expertise and documentary resources GEN acquired with the help of the Legal Advisory Board (LAB) in order to GEN provide Member States and Community institutions with easier access GEN to reference documents and to information on current work. To this GEN effect, the Commission will examine the possibility of encouraging GEN the development of a specialized database. A second category of work GEN will concentrate on contributing to the preparation of initiatives GEN specific to certain segments of the information market. Inter alia, GEN the Commission will draw up proposals for harmonizing the rules on GEN the marketing of data files held by public or quasi-public bodies and GEN draw up Communityguidelines to harmonize the conditions for opening GEN up electronic information services to the public. GEN GEN As a complement to current efforts for Open System Interconnection GEN (OSI), the development of open information interchange standards will GEN be promoted in cooperation with existing standardization structures GEN such as EWOS, ETSI and CEN/CENELEC. The development of generic GEN interfaces providing flexible and economic solutions to access a GEN large spectrum of information services will be encouraged. GEN GEN Actions aimed at supporting information multipliers, experts and GEN end-users will include the development of appropriate tools in all GEN Community languages, the organization of conferences, workshops, GEN training actions, etc., participation in exhibitions, publication of GEN a regular newsletter, provision of a central help desk with a free GEN phone enquiry service, and operation of the multilingual host service GEN ECHO. GEN GEN Actions to support strategic information initiatives will focus on GEN electronic scientific and technical information services and GEN information services in strategically important market sectors GEN relevant to Community internal market policies.

IMP IMP With regard to the aim of the research carried out (to provide the IMP basis for a Community policy for supporting R&D in the advanced IMP materials sector and for coordinating national programmes), the IMP Commission was called on to make, every two years: IMP - An assessment of European R&D capacity in the advanced materials IMP sector, by area, by Member State and in the Community as a whole, by IMP comparison with the technological capacity of Japan and the US; IMP - A medium-term analysis and estimate of requirements in the various IMP sectors of the European industry in relation, if necessary, with IMP other Community programmes related to materials. IMP IMP The Commission was authorized to negotiate agreements with third IMP States, in particular those involved in European Cooperation in the IMP field of Scientific and Technical research (COST), with a view to IMP associating them wholly or partly with the programme. IMP IMP An early evaluation of the programme (the research had just started IMP and in some cases the contracts had not been signed) was carried out IMP by a panel of external independent experts and published by the IMP Commission in November 1988. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@Part of the first Framework programme (1984-1987) GEN under activity 3: "Improving the management of raw materials", EURAM GEN followed a similar programme concerning substitution materials, GEN undertaken during the period 1982-1985, as well as other more GEN specific actions, including the concerted European action on magnets GEN (CEAM) which was part of the STIMULATION programme. The BRITE GEN programme (1985-1988) also contained a significant element of GEN materials research. GEN GEN This first EURAM programme was implemented as a subprogramme of the GEN 1986-1989 research programme on materials. The other subprogrammes GEN covered primary raw materials (minerals), secondary raw materials, GEN and wood (including cork) as a renewable raw material. EURAM was GEN subsequently integrated with BRITE as part of BRITE/EURAM I GEN (1989-1992). GEN GEN The programme was based on new material families generally in the GEN initial phase of development and having, in most cases, a limited GEN market in the years to come. A very small part of the programme was GEN devoted to the upgrading of traditional materials. In view of the GEN fact that materials for electronics were covered by ESPRIT, ferrous GEN materials by the ECSC, and superalloys by the COST 50, 501 and 505 GEN programmes, only two major families of materials were missing from GEN EURAM: polymers and elastomers. Also missing were super-conductor GEN ceramics, a field which had not yet appeared at the time when the GEN programme was conceived.

GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@Part of the specific programme of research and GEN technological development in the field of telematic systems in areas GEN of general interest (1990-1994) under Area 5: "Libraries", this first GEN Community action devoted to libraries is designed to promote: GEN - The availability and accessibility of modern library services GEN throughout the Community, taking into account existing geographic GEN discrepancies in library provision; GEN - A more rapid but orderly penetration of new information GEN technologies in libraries in a cost-effective way; GEN - Standardization, because of its practical consequences and economic GEN impact; GEN - Harmonization and convergence of national policies with respect to GEN the above. GEN GEN In 1984, the European Parliament drew political attention to the GEN importance of libraries to the Community in a Resolution (known as GEN the Schwencke Resolution) which called for action by the Commission GEN in this sector (Official Journal No C 117 of 30.4.1984). The Council GEN of Ministers with responsibility for cultural affairs adopted a GEN Resolution of 17 September 1985 on "Collaboration between libraries GEN in the field of data processing" (Official Journal No C 271 of GEN 23.10.1985). This Resolution acknowledged the importance of libraries GEN in the European Community, both as a major force on the information GEN market and as intermediaries to knowledge and culture. It invited the GEN Commission to take action to help libraries which should be aimed, GEN inter alia, at preparing a work programme in close collaboration with GEN those responsible for libraries in Member States. GEN GEN The preparation of the Community action was in two phases. An GEN exploratory phase started in 1985 and concluded with a broad informal GEN consultation on a discussion document which described a possible plan GEN of action. A series of preparatory activities started in late GEN 1989-1990, using as template this draft plan of action. These GEN included more in-depth consultations and investigations as well as a GEN small number of test-bed pilot projects.

GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@The completion of the Single European Market defined GEN in the Single European Act of 1989 and reinforced by the Maastricht GEN Treaty 1992 inevitably creates new needs for information exchanges GEN between Member States of the European Community. The free movement of GEN persons, goods, services and capital, coupled with increasing GEN economic and social cohesion in the Community, implies that GEN Administrations can provide their services to citizens, business and GEN other Administrations throughout the Community. In this respect, GEN Administrations can play a key role in overcoming the non-technical GEN barriers in the Community and, as leading-edge users, contribute to GEN the improvement of an essential service infrastructure for business GEN and the economy in general. GEN GEN The present action, part of the specific programme of research and GEN technological development in the field of telematic systems in areas GEN of general interest (1990-1994) under Area 1: "Support for the GEN establishment of transeuropean networks between administrations", GEN aims to establish a full definition for an "Overlay Network" which GEN would be implemented on the existing European telecommunications GEN infrastructure, thus enabling inter-administration communications to GEN take place in Europe. GEN GEN In preparation for the launching of the work in this area, the GEN Commission invited interested parties to contribute to the definition GEN of the Workplan within the framework of a Planning Exercise. This GEN Planning Exercise included three complementary consultative GEN processes, an open invitation, the collaboration of some 300 GEN organizations in Technical Panels and the consultation of the GEN Commission services. GEN GEN Depending on the nature and urgency of the requirements, three GEN categories of actions have been identified: GEN GEN - Immediate requirements to be met on the basis of the existing GEN service and equipment offerings; GEN - Medium-term requirements which could benefit from pre-competitive GEN and pre-normative R&D and demonstration of the application GEN feasibility in the form of pilot projects; GEN - Requirements which depend on new technology which will not be GEN available for some time. GEN GEN The priority subareas are those most closely linked to the completion GEN of the internal market. In the first instance work may concern such GEN areas as customs, social services, emergency services and statistics. GEN GEN Close collaboration will be maintained with the other areas of the GEN Telematics Systems of General Interest programme (AIM, DRIVE, DELTA, GEN ORA) and also with the relevant actions in other programmes and other GEN Community actions (INSIS, CADDIA, TEDIS, ESPRIT, RACE). In addition GEN there is a strong user link to each of the ongoing ENS/Administration GEN projects.

Universities and other research centres have the option of IMP requesting, for each project, either 50% funding of total expenditure IMP or 100% funding of the additional marginal costs. Contracts must as a IMP general rule be concluded following a selection procedure based on IMP calls for proposals published in the Official Journal of the European IMP Communities. IMP Up to 10% of the programme budget can be allocated to shared-cost IMP contracts for Focused Fundamental Research in areas where industrial IMP progress is hindered by weakness in basic science. These projects, IMP which need not be performed by industrial partners, must involve at IMP least two partners established in different Member States. Their size IMP is typically much less than Industrial Research Projects, but they IMP must cover at least five man-years of activity. IMP IMP Concerted actions consist of action by the Community to coordinate IMP the individual research activities carried out in the Member States. IMP They may benefit from funding of up to 100% of coordinating IMP expenditure. IMP IMP About 2% of the programme budget is reserved for Specific Training IMP actions aimed at the training of researchers for European industry. IMP These are intended to cover specialized, multidisciplinary training, IMP including a training role within projects. Research fellowships are IMP provided to enable researchers to gain practical experience of IMP international collaborative research in the technical areas covered IMP by chosen projects. IMP IMP The Commission is authorized to negotiate, in accordance with Article IMP 130n of the Treaty, international agreements with third countries IMP which are members of COST, in particular the member countries of the IMP European Free Trade Association (EFTA) and Central and Eastern IMP European countries, with a view to associating them with the whole IMP programme or a part of it. Where framework agreements for scientific IMP and technical cooperation have been concluded between the Community IMP and European non-Member States, bodies and enterprises established in IMP those countries may, on the basis of the criterion of mutual benefit, IMP be allowed to become partners in a project undertaken within the IMP programme. IMP IMP No contracting body based outside the Community and participating as IMP a partner in a project undertaken within the programme may benefit IMP from Community financing for this programme. Such bodies shall IMP contribute to the general administrative costs. IMP IMP The total Community funds estimated as necessary for the execution of IMP the BRITE/EURAM II programme, including aeronautics research, amount IMP to ECU 670 million, of which a sum of ECU 6.7 million (1%) is IMP earmarked as the contribution from the programme to the centralized IMP scheme for the dissemination and exploitation of results. The IMP knowledge acquired in the course of the projects will be disseminated IMP both within the programme and by means of the centralized scheme. IMP Specific information on projects will be provided in close IMP cooperation with CORDIS. IMP IMP The Commission will review the programme during the second year and IMP send a report to the European Parliament and the Council. At the end IMP of the programme an evaluation of the results achieved will be IMP conducted by a group of independent experts and submitted to these IMP same bodies.

GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@Information stored, processed and transmitted GEN electronically plays an increasingly important role in economic and GEN social activities. The advent of efficient global communications and GEN the pervasive use of electronic handling of information emphasizes GEN the need for adequate protection. Thus the European Parliament has GEN repeatedly stressed the importance of the security of information GEN systems in its debates and resolutions. The Economic and Social GEN Committee has also emphasized the need for Community action to GEN address issues in this area. GEN GEN The complexity of the security of information systems calls for the GEN development of strategies to enable the free movement of information GEN within the single market while ensuring the security of the use of GEN information systems throughout the Community. Moreover, the GEN responsibilities of the Member States imply a concerted approach GEN based on close collaboration with senior officials of the Member GEN States. GEN GEN In view of the above, the Community action comprises: GEN - Development of overall strategies for the security of information GEN systems (action plan) for an initial period of 24 months; GEN - Setting up a Senior Officials Group with a long-term mandate to GEN advise the Commission on action to be undertaken in the field of the GEN security of information systems. GEN GEN The Commission shall consult the Senior Officials Group GEN systematically on issues relating to the security of the information GEN systems for the various activities carried out by the Community, in GEN particular on the definition of work strategies and programmes. GEN GEN The action plan includes preparatory work under six main themes GEN (action lines). It aims to take into account, promote and complement GEN the European and international standardization activities underway in GEN the field of security of information systems.

IMP@I@@S2@Implementation :@S1@@I@The Commission, assisted by a Committee consisting of IMP representatives of the Member States, was responsible for the IMP implementation of the programme, following the guidelines set forth IMP in the Commission communication to the Council entitled "A IMP methodological approach to an information system on the state of the IMP environment and the natural resources in the European Community". IMP IMP The information collected is available to the public, subject to IMP compliance with the rules of the Commission and Member States on the IMP dissemination of information, particularly with regard to IMP confidentiality. IMP IMP In 1988 the Commission submitted a progress report to the European IMP Parliament and to the Council with proposals for future guidelines. A IMP final report on the results obtained was submitted to these same IMP bodies in 1991. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@CORINE was initially set up to provide the 1982-1986 GEN Community action programme on the environment (Official Journal No C GEN 46 of 17.02.1983) with consistent and comparable information on the GEN state of the environment and natural resources in the Community for GEN the purpose of action in the following priority areas: incorporating GEN the enviornmental dimension into the other Community policies, GEN combating local and transfrontier atmospheric pollution, protecting GEN biotopes of major importance for nature conservation in the Community GEN and protecting the environment in the Mediterranean region. GEN GEN Data on the priority topics were collected, supplemented by a series GEN of basic data, and organized in an operational geographic information GEN system. Themes covered by the system include: biotopes, protected GEN areas, air pollution (CORINAIR inventory), land and water resources, GEN coastal and soil erosion, natural potential vegetation, land cover, GEN water pattern, bathing water quality, soil types, climate, GEN administrative units, coastline and national bounderies, ERDF GEN regions, urban centres, socio-economic data, air traffic and nuclear GEN power stations. Data from the system is available either on a GEN magnetic support (digital form) or on a "paper" support (maps, GEN extracts from lists, tables, reports). GEN GEN The results of the programme have demonstrated that a permanent GEN information system on the state of the Community environment is GEN necessary and technically feasible. Furthermore, the programme has GEN permitted the precise definition of the conditions necessary for the GEN realization and operation of such a system. In light of these GEN results, the Council of Environment Ministers took the decision to GEN transform the CORINE prototype into a permanent information system GEN within the framework of a European Environmental Agency supported by GEN a European Environment Information and Observation Network (Council GEN Regulation (EEC) No 1210/90 of 7 May 1990, Official Journal No L 120 GEN of 11.5.1990).

IMP@I@@S2@Implementation :@S1@@I@The Commission is responsible for implementing the IMP programme on the basis of practical workplans drawn up in close IMP cooperation with the Member States and after consulting the Advisory IMP Committee on Safety, Hygiene and Health Protection at Work. GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@In order to confirm its will to reinforce the social GEN dimension of the completion of the internal market, the Commission GEN decided, without awaiting the expiry of the second action programme GEN in the field of safety, hygiene and health at work (1984-1988), to GEN draw up a new action programme based on Articles 117 and 118 of the GEN EEC Treaty and taking full advantage of the opportunities afforded by GEN the provisions of the new Article 118a of the Single European Act. GEN GEN Article 118a sets the objective of harmonizing conditions, especially GEN in the working environment, for protecting the health and safety of GEN workers and, to this end, stipulates that the Council, acting by a GEN qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission, in cooperation GEN with the European Parliament and after consulting the Economic and GEN Social Committee, shall adopt, by means of directives, minimum GEN requirements for gradual implementation, having regard to the GEN conditions and technical rules existing in each of the Member States. GEN GEN In its Resolution of 21 December 1987 on safety, hygiene and health GEN at work, the Council welcomed the Commission's communication on the GEN new action programme (Official Journal No C 28 of 3.1.1988) and GEN invited the Commission to draw up practical plans of work, preferably GEN on an annual basis, in close cooperation with the Member States and GEN after consulting the Advisory Committee on Safety, Hygiene and Health GEN Protection at Work, taking account of the following criteria in GEN particular: GEN - The seriousness of the risks of accidents at work and/or GEN occupational diseases; GEN - The number of workers exposed to risks; GEN - The possibilities for prevention. GEN GEN The Council further invited the Commission to maintain close contacts GEN with national experts, to cooperate with the social partners in the GEN preparation of directives, to examine how the exchange of information GEN and experience could be improved, particularly as regards the GEN gathering and dissemination of data, and to examine the advisability GEN of setting up Community machinery to study the repercussions at GEN national level of Community measures. It stressed that the GEN information, increased awareness and, if necessary, the training of GEN employers and workers would play a fundamental role in the success of GEN the measures recommended in the Commission's communication, and GEN agreed to suggest that a European year in the field of health and GEN safety at work be organized in 1992. GEN GEN In the context of the first two programmes of action on safety and GEN health at work the Commission drafted 10 directives on the protection GEN of workers exposed to physical and chemical agents and on the GEN prevention of major accident hazards related to chemicals. Seven of GEN these had been accepted by the Council before the end of 1987.

IMP IMP The CRAFT scheme is aimed primarily at SMEs with limited or no RTD IMP resources of their own. It provides financial support to groups of IMP industrial companies, in particular SMEs, which face a common IMP industrial or technological research need. CRAFT enables these SMEs IMP to come together and to contract a third party (a research centre, IMP university or company) to carry out RTD research on their behalf. IMP IMP The proposed RTD should conform with the objectives and contents of IMP the BRITE/EURAM II programme. Research proposals must be: IMP - The result of a "bottom-up" approach, i.e. projects should be IMP proposed by SMEs and reflect their current industrial problems or IMP technological challenges; IMP - A response to common problems or RTD opportunities affecting a IMP number of companies within one or more industrial sectors, rather IMP than specific problems occurring in individual companies; IMP - Submitted by undertakings which are to take part in planning and IMP piloting the research and implementing the results. IMP IMP Subject to the availability of funds, projects may be presented at IMP any time during a two-year period following the publication of a call IMP for proposals in the Official Journal of the European Communities. IMP Proposals are received in two steps, as "outline proposals" and as IMP "final proposals", with an intervening expansion and definition IMP phase. An award of up to ECU 15,000 may be provided by the Commission IMP to help defray the costs of the expansion and definition phase. IMP IMP The Prime Proposer should be an SME and the research must be carried IMP out in Europe. Each proposal should include in its final stage two IMP distinct groups of participants: IMP - The Proposers: Industrial companies, mainly SMEs, which have no or IMP limited research facilities and are active in the field of the IMP programme (mining, manufacturing, construction, processing, IMP recycling, etc.). Participation of large companies as well as SMEs IMP with well established R&D resources is possible if this is at the IMP special request and interest of the proposing SMEs; IMP - The RTD performers who will carry out the project work, e.g. IMP research centres, universities, higher education institutes, and/or IMP companies. IMP IMP The CRAFT scheme has a budget of approximately ECU 57 million. (9% of IMP the BRITE/EURAM II budget). Projects should have a maximum duration IMP of 2 years and maximum total costs of ECU 1 million. Up to 50% of the IMP costs are funded by the Commission. The balance must be provided by IMP the SMEs, which may provide in-kind contributions or find additional IMP industrial funding sources. IMP IMP Participants from third European countries who are members of COST IMP and Central and Eastern European countries are allowed to participate IMP on a project-by-project basis. They cannot act as Prime Proposer nor IMP receive any funding from the Commission. They should contribute to IMP the general administration of the programme.

GEN@I@@S2@General information :@S1@@I@Part of the third Framework programme for Community GEN activities in the field of research and technological development GEN (1990 to 1994) under subactivity II.5.: "Energy", this eleventh GEN Community Fusion programme embraces all activities undertaken in the GEN Member States (plus Sweden and Switzerland) in the field of GEN controlled thermonuclear fusion by means of magnetic confinement. Its GEN long-term objective is the joint creation of safe, environmentally GEN sound prototype reactors. A step by step strategy towards the GEN prototype commercial reactor is envisaged, including, after JET GEN (Joint European Torus), an experimental reactor (Next Step) and a GEN demonstration reactor (DEMO). GEN GEN The major physics goal of the Next Step will be the achievement of GEN self-sustained thermonuclear burn of a deuterium-tritium plasma and GEN its control during long pulse operation. The Next Step should GEN demonstrate the safe operation of a device that integrates important GEN technologies of a fusion reactor, and should test components and GEN subsystems essential for a fusion reactor. It should provide the GEN basic data for the engineering of a demonstration reactor capable of GEN producing significant amounts of electricity while taking due account GEN of environmental constraints. GEN GEN A large proportion of the 1990-1994 fusion activities will be in GEN support of the Next Step. The Conceptual Design Activities have been GEN successfully completed in the European framework, NET (Next European GEN Torus), and also in the quadripartite (EC, Japan, USA, USSR) GEN framework of ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor). GEN The Engineering Design Activities (EDA) will begin as soon as the GEN ITER EDA Agreement is signed. Construction of the Next Step may be GEN proposed during the period of the fourth Community Framework GEN programme. Where appropriate, JET equipment and expertise will be GEN used to perform specific developments in support of the Next Step. GEN GEN The Community has concluded Cooperation Agreements in the field of GEN controlled thermonuclear fusion and plasma physics with Sweden and GEN Switzerland. It has entered into an Agreement of Participation in GEN ITER Conceptual Design Activities, together with Japan, the USA and GEN the Soviet Union, and has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with GEN the Government of Canada on the involvement of Canada in the European GEN contribution to these activities. The Council, in its Decision of 6 GEN April 1992, approved the conclusion of a six-year Agreement of GEN cooperation in the ITER EDA, together with Japan, the USA and the GEN Russian Federation. Commission Decision 92/439/Euratom of 22 April GEN 1992 empowers the President of the Commission to designate the person GEN authorized to sign the Agreement and its protocol, the texts of which GEN are appended to the Decision (Official Journal No L 244 of 26.8.1992).

IMP@I@@S2@Implementation :@S1@@I@The Commission is responsible for the implementation IMP of the programme, assisted by a committee composed of representatives IMP of the Member States and chaired by a representative of the IMP Commission. IMP IMP The programme comprises research and technological development (RTD) IMP projects, cooperative research projects, accompanying measures IMP (including feasibility premiums) and concerted actions. IMP IMP The projects are the subject of shared-cost contracts, with Community IMP financial participation not normally exceeding 50%. Universities and IMP other research centres have the option of requesting, for each IMP project, either 50% funding of total expenditure or 100% funding of IMP the additional marginal costs. Contracts relating to shared-cost IMP research projects must as a general rule be concluded following a IMP selection procedure based on calls for proposals published in the IMP Official Journal of the European Communities. Projects must, as a IMP general rule, provide for the participation of at least two partners, IMP each independent of the other, established in different Member IMP States. These two partners will normally be industrial firms except IMP in the case of projects in the field of basic research. Where basic IMP research is undertaken by a group consisting solely of research IMP centres and universities, industrial support will be sought. IMP IMP Cooperative research projects are intended for a group of IMP undertakings, in particular SMEs, which do not have their own IMP research facilities, in order to resolve common technical problems. IMP One or more outside organizations (research associations, IMP universities or undertakings) will be appointed to carry out the IMP research. 50% of the research costs of these projects will be covered IMP for a period normally not exceeding two years. These projects must be IMP submitted by undertakings which are to take part in planning and IMP piloting the research and implementing the results. IMP IMP The accompanying measures consist of: IMP - The organization of seminars, workshops and scientific conferences; IMP - Internal coordination through the creation of integrating groups; IMP - Specialized training programmes, with emphasis being placed on IMP multidisciplinarity; IMP - An information exchange system; IMP - Promotion of the exploitation of results; IMP - Independent scientific and strategic evaluation of the operation of IMP the projects and the programme. IMP IMP Feasibility premiums are subsidies of up to ECU 30,000, covering up IMP to 75% of research lasting a maximum of nine months and intended to IMP determine the feasibility of an innovative device, concept or IMP process. Such premiums are reserved for independent, technologically IMP based SMEs established within the Community.
