Give your opinion on Framework Programme implementation
by CORDIS
In 2010, the European Commission plans to issue a Communication on possibilities for simplifying the implementation of the EU RTD Framework Programmes. For gathering ideas, the Commission has opened a first, informal consultation. Contributions can still be made until 30 September.
Ideas are sought under two broad headings:
- improvements to processes and systems that could be implemented under the current legal basis of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) (e.g. better guidance and communication, improved workflows, improved IT systems);
- more profound changes of the modes of implementation of the EU research budget that would require adaptations to the legal basis (in particular the Framework Programme, Rules for Participation, model grant agreements).
Contributions from citizens, organisations and public authorities are welcome.
