Paragraph 6
6. Considers that there is a need for further simplification and greater flexibility among Union funds, programmes and instruments to make EU funding for strategic investment projects simpler and more efficient, in particular for the regions whose development is lagging behind, as they are more restricted in their access to, or use of, funding, mainly due to bureaucratic and administrative difficulties; hopes, in this regard, that reforms will be promoted within the Member States to make the principle of sound administration more efficient.
