PE627.840v01-00 12/14 PV\1163005EN.docx EN 2.2. Opinions to the 2021-2027 programmes

2.2.1.Amendments to the financial envelopes of programmes

The coordinators endorsed the MFF rapporteurs’ approach to include, in the MFF/OR interim report and in the reports/opinions on the 2021-2027 programmes, explicit figures for the financial envelopes of the different programmes reflecting the EP position set out in the resolutions of 14 March and 30 May, and decided to recommend such approach at the upcoming meetings of the MFF contact group and of the Conference of Presidents. The coordinators also decided to instruct the rapporteurs of the BUDG opinions on the 2021-2027 programmes to amend the financial envelopes of the programmes using the figures presented in the MFF rapporteurs’ “technical translation” of those resolutions (expressed in 2018 prices, with current prices in brackets for ease of comparison). They instructed the secretariat to draft a standard justification for those amendments to clarify that further adjustments may be introduced at a later stage, within the overall level of 1,3% of the EU’s GNI.

2.2.2.Standard amendments

The coordinators decided not to endorse standard amendments to be tabled to opinions on MFF programmes. The text of the amendments that were proposed by some political groups will be brought to the knowledge of the rapporteurs for possible inclusion in their opinions, where appropriate and subject to the necessary adaptations.

2.3. EU-Mashreq delegation's mission to Egypt

The coordinators decided to decline the invitation to send a BUDG representative to the DMAS mission to Egypt.
