"The sustained financial and economic crisis has put increasing pressure on national financial resources. In this context, ensuring a smooth implementation of cohesion programmes takes on particular importance as a tool for injecting funds into the economy. Nonetheless, the liquidity problems resulting from budget constraints are making it difficult to implement the programmes, particularly in the Member States which have been most affected by the crisis. In order to ensure that the Member States continue the implementation of the European Fisheries Fund (EFF) programmes on the ground and disburse funds to projects, the Commission proposes to increase Community cofinancing for the countries facing the greatest difficulties, with a corresponding reduction in the national effort required in order to take up funding. I welcome the Commission’s proposal, although I do share Mr Ferreira’s concerns over some parts of it. The Commission should assess the extent to which this measure will indeed ‘provide the Member States concerned with the funds necessary to support projects and the recovery of the economy’. Moreover, I think that the Commission needs to reconfigure the priorities of the EFF so that they are primarily focused on supporting productive activity and the development of coastal communities."@en1
