Voting Sessions in Parliamentary Committees

This morning, we had two long but successful voting sessions in my parliamentary committees:

Regional Development and Employment.

We adopted our position on the so-called cohesion policy mid-term review. We are adapting EU funds to new challenges.

Specifically: local authorities will be able to allocate EU funds to new priorities:

▪️ housing, defense and dual-use activities, and water resource management. In addition, there will be greater flexibility, large advance payments, and a higher co-financing rate. This is good news for local governments and residents.
