Amendment 288 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 31
(31) The positive results of the first Blending Call for proposals launched under the current programme in 2017, confirmed the relevance and added value of using EU grants for blending with financing from the European Investment Bank or National Promotional Banks or other development and public financial institutions as well as from private-sector finance institutions and private-sector investors, including through public private partnerships.

The Programme should therefore continue to provide for dedicated Calls enabling combination between EU grants and other sources of financing.
