Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 12 a (new)
Paragraph 12 a (new)
12a. Stresses that only with respect of a true integrated multi-level governance between local, regional, national, cross- border and EU public authorities, EU, national and regional policy can be efficient and effective; Calls on the Commission to evaluate the possibilities of innovation related territorial cooperation, both national and international, in each cohesion policy objective, and to analyse the possibilities of reinforcing the European territorial cooperation objective with regard to fostering innovation related cooperation between regions; In parallel to the reinforcement of the Territorial Cooperation Objective (Objective 3), the possibility to develop transnational territorial cooperation actions in the framework of Objective 2 should also be reinforced. Such possibility is today made possible by article Art. 37.6.b of regulation EC 1083/2006; Is of the opinion that the reinforcing of territorial cooperation should be accompanied, without changing the overall cohesion objectives' budget, by a reshifting towards a larger budget for this enlarged territorial cooperation;
