(8) As a 24/7 operational centre at Union level with capacity to follow and support operations in various types of emergencies, within and outside the Union, in real-time, the Emergency Response Coordination Centre (‘ERCC’) should be further strengthened. This should include enhanced coordination of the ERCC with Member States’ national crisis systems and civil protection authorities, as well as with other relevant Union bodies. The work of the ERCC is supported by scientific expertise, including that provided by the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre.

(8a) The ERCC should always act in coordination with national civil protection departments, the strategic importance of which has already been widely recognised. Indeed, national civil protection departments are an asset to be exploited, given that they are organised in a functional and efficient way, as already demonstrated during the COVID-19 emergency, and should be key partners in order to avoid wasting information and resources.

(17) In order to increase flexibility as well as achieve optimal budget execution, indirect management should be included as a method of budget implementation only where justified by the nature and content of the action in question. In all other cases, direct management should always be the preferred option.
