1 0(02 Brussels, 17 April 2001 $GGLWLRQDO JHQHUDO LQIRUPDWLRQ RQ &RPPXQLW\ IXQGLQJEDVHGRQWKH,17(55(*,,, %DFNJURXQG The INTERREG Initiative was introduced in 1990 to develop cross-border cooperation and help areas on the internal and external borders of the Union to overcome the problems arising from their isolation. The new INTERREG III Initiative for provides further support for that goal while also supporting interregional and transnational co-operation. The importance of these types of cooperation is now even greater with the impending enlargement of the European Union, which will increase the number of internal borders and move its external frontiers further east. The main challenge for INTERREG III is to build on the positive experiences of cooperation already undertaken and extend this successful co-operation to the whole Union and to relations with neighbouring countries. 7KH6WUDQGV The guiding principle behind INTERREG III is that national borders should not be a barrier to the balanced and harmonious development of Europe. To this end, three different types of co-operation will be supported through INTERREG III. They are: - 6WUDQG$FURVVERUGHUFRRSHUDWLRQbetween contiguous border communities aiming to develop cross-border economic and social centres and joint spatial development approaches. This type of co-operation is focused on the local dimension at the internal and external borders of the Union; - 6WUDQG % WUDQVQDWLRQDO FRRSHUDWLRQ between local, regional and national authorities with a view to promoting wider European integration and sustainable and balanced development in the European Union and better integration with neighbouring countries. Some 13 programmes will cover the whole of Europe, encouraging a more strategic approach to spatial development issues; and - 6WUDQG&LQWHUUHJLRQDOFRRSHUDWLRQto improve the effectiveness of regional development tools through the creation of networks, especially for the less favoured regions and those regions suffering from industrial decline. This strand will focus on non-contiguous co-operation. Further information and maps are provided in Annex 1. 7KH,QWHUUHJ3URJUDPPHVIRU The guidelines for INTERREG III are based on the experience of the period and seek to build on the results already achieved by ensuring that the regions and territories involved co-ordinate their efforts and engage in real co-operation. This means that they must employ joint strategies and programmes. Regions and territories must also create joint administrative structures for the preparation and promotion of these programmes, the selection of operations, general management, co-ordination and monitoring the implementation of programming.

2 INTERREG III programmes must involve not only institutions but also socioeconomic actors, non-governmental organisations and further education institutions. Finally, the programmes established must complement the measures developed under Objectives 1, 2 and 3 of the Structural Funds and must also be co-ordinated with the instruments of the Union s external policy (including PHARE, TACIS, MEDA).,17(55(*,,,DQGWKH$GULDWLF The Commission is especially aware of the political situation in the Adriatic region and is monitoring the situation closely. The Commission has made a special statement annexed to the INTERREG III guidelines which states When the political conditions to encourage co-operation under INTERREG III between the Italian regions and those of the third countries of the Adriatic are met, the Commission will examine the most suitable methods of encouraging this co-operation with the other co-operation instruments. )LQDQFLQJ The total contribution of the ERDF to INTERREG for has been set at EURO million at 1999 prices. Co-financing is available at up to 75% of the total cost of projects and programmes in Objective 1 regions and up to 50% elsewhere. The Commission has also adopted today the indicative financial allocation per Member State for INTERREG III. These allocations (see Annex 2) have been calculated on the basis of objective criteria. Member States should allocate, on an indicative basis, at least 50% of their total INTERREG III indicative allocation to cross-border co-operation (strand A). The Commission invites the Member States and the designated regional authorities to submit detailed proposals within six months from the date of publication of the final notice in the 2IILFLDO-RXUQDORIWKH(XURSHDQ&RPPXQLWLHV.
