Amendment 4 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 2
2. Recalls that the macroeconomic framework seems to be essential to achieving the objective of reducing disparities in the levels of development as defined in Article 174 of the TFEU and that cohesion policy can be a strong driver for achieving this objective if accompanied by a sound macro-economic framework; is deeply concerned that, in an economic environment with high government debt levels and macro-economic imbalances, the absorption and effectiveness of ESI funds can be greatly diminished; therefore calls on the European Commission to propose tailor made measures which will support timely implementation and achievement of the Cohesion Policy and economic goals in these countries;

Draft opinion
Paragraph 3
3. Welcomes the closer links between the objectives of the European Semester process and the programming of the ESI Funds 2014-2020, and especially the systematic references to CSRs and NRPs (National Reform Programmes) in the programming exercise; takes note on the Study on Strategic Coherence of cohesion policy: Comparison of the 2007-2013 and the 2014-2020 programming period, which presents that CSRs are in a very limited way taken into consideration in PAs and OPs; considers that cohesion policy investments could play a very important role in supporting structural reforms and fulfilment of the EU strategic goals by following up the relevant CSRs; calls for steps to be taken to ensure compleimentarity and synergies between the ESI Funds, the European Fund for Strategic Investment (EFSI) and the other EU-subsidised programmes and initiatives, as well as national public investments and private financial instruments, in order to obtain maximum added value and synergy from the whole investments effected potential;

Paragraph 4
4. Urges the Commission and the Member States to ensure the quality of interventions co-financed by cohesion policy and compliance with most relevant CSRs; notes that, in the 2013 and 2014 financial years there were more CSRs with relevance for ESI Funds programming, and underlines that medium- term structural reforms related to ESI Funds investments are still necessary and should be included in CSRs eventhough they are very often contained in the ex-ante conditionalities of the ESI Funds common framework;

6. Urges the Member States to ensure swift and effective implementation of the respective CSRs for 2015 and those outstanding from previous years in order to achieve sustainable growth and jobs; deplores, in this connection, the non- binding natures of the recommendations; recalls that the quality of ESI Funds interventions as policy responses to the challenges identified in the CSRs will depend on how Member States connect their structural reforms, better spending and and smart fiscal consolidation with the use of ESI funds through the National Reform Programmes and theon how Member States ensuingre programme implementation;
