". Next year will mark the 20th anniversary of the Treaty of Maastricht and the concept of ‘citizen of the European Union’. The establishment of European citizenship impacted millions of people, bringing with it a series of advantages including cross-border access to health services. However, a recent survey by Eurobarometer has shown that 48 % of citizens say that they are not sufficiently well informed about their rights as European citizens and only 30 % feel that they can personally influence the European process. A study performed by Eurobarometer in 2011 showed that only one third of EU citizens are fully or partially satisfied with the efficiency of the EU administration, its availability to offer services and its transparency; the rest are dissatisfied, especially with regard to the last aspect. In spite of the small budget allocation (EUR 1 million compared to the 2011 European Year, which had EUR 11 million at its disposal), we need to capitalise on the European Year of Citizens to remind our citizens about what the European Union can do for each of us."@en1
