Recital 36 a (new)
(36 a) For many years, promoting European Territorial Cooperation (ETC) has been a major priority of EU cohesion policy. Under the General Block Exemption Regulation (GBER), support for SMEs in connection with the costs of ETC projects is already exempted from reporting requirements. Special provisions for regional aid for investments by undertakings of all sizes are also included in the Guidelines on regional State aid for 2014-2020 and in the regional aid section of the GBER.As aid for ETC projects have only a limited impact on competition and trade between Member States, and aid granted to SMEs in this context already benefits from a notification exemption, this exemption should be extended to all State aid granted in the context of European territorial cooperation projects to exempt them from reporting requirements under Article 108(3) TFEU.
