1.3.3 Member States and regions should pursue the objective of equality between men and women as set out in Article 8 of the TFEU and ensure its mainstreaming in the preparation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of actions under all Funds covered by the CPR and the integration of the gender perspective as binding principle. ERDF, ESF and Cohesion Fund programmes should explicitly specify the expected contribution of these Funds to gender equality, by setting out in detail objectives and instruments. Gender analysis should be included in the analysis of the objectives of the intervention. Monitoring systems and data collection are also essential to provide a clear picture of how programmes are meeting gender equality objectives. Progress shall be demonstrated by applying horizontal indicators. The participation of the relevant bodies responsible for promoting gender equality in the partnership should be ensured. It is strongly recommended to organise permanent structures or explicitly assign a function to existing structures to advice on gender equality in order to provide the necessary expertise in the preparation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of programmes. Higher participation of women in the labour market, both as employers and employees, would invigorate the Union’s economy. Unblocking the potential for such an increase in activity, by increasing the female employment rate is crucial for reaching the Europe 2020 employment targets. Barriers to women’s labour market participation, must, therefore, be fully addressed. Member States and regions must ensure that in addition to the ESF, the ERDF, the CF, the EMFF and the EAFRD also finance activities that promote women's economic independence, contribute to attaining an appropriate balance between work and family life, and that advance women's opportunities as entrepreneurs.

Unblocking the potential for such an increase in activity, by increasing the female employment rate is crucial for reaching the Europe 2020 employment targets of 75% employment rate for women and men. Barriers to women's labour market participation, must, therefore, be fully addressed through, inter alia, reduction of labour market segmentation by occupation and sector by, amongst others, encouraging a better participation of women in the field of R & D and including female workers into training and vocational training in 'green jobs'; Member States and regions must ensure with specific actions that in addition to the ESF, the ERDF, the CF, the EMFF and the EAFRD also finance activities that promote women's economic independence, contribute to attaining an appropriate balance between work and family life, and that advance women's opportunities as entrepreneurs.

Community-led local development (based on the experience of LEADER under rural development) can complement and enhance the delivery of public policies for all CSF Funds. It aims at increasing effectiveness and efficiency of territorial development strategies by delegating decision-making and implementation to a local partnership of public, private and civil society actors. Community-led local development should be implemented in the context of a strategic approach followed by public policy-makers, to ensure that the 'bottom- up' definition of local needs takes into account priorities set at higher levels. Member States, in close cooperation with the partners referred to in Article 5 of this Regulation, will therefore have to define their approach to community-led local development across the CSF Funds. Under the EAFRD, LEADER will continue to be a compulsory element in each rural development programme. Existing LEADER groups should be able to continue successful development strategies.

2.5.2 Just as national infrastructure needs to be planned coherently, both by taking into account the development of Union cross border links, and by developing links across regions within a Member State, plans must be based on real and projected transport demand and identify missing links and bottlenecks. Investment in regional connectivity to the comprehensive network and to the core Trans European Network of transport infrastructure (TEN-T) network must ensure that urban and rural areas benefit from the opportunities created by major networks and missing links of sustainable transport modes in trans-border connections.

(4) The European Union is confronted with structural challenges arising from economic globalisation, technological change and an increasingly ageing workforce and growing skills and labour shortages in some sectors and regions. They have been compounded by the recent economic and financial crisis, which has resulted in increased levels of unemployment, hitting in particular young people and other vulnerable groups, such as migrants, refugees and asylum seekers. The ESF should aim to promote quality employment with particular attention to those who are the furthest from the labour market and support labour mobility, invest in education, skills and life-long learning, promote social inclusion ~~and~~, combat poverty and discrimination. In promoting the better functioning of labour markets by enhancing the transnational geographical mobility of workers, the ESF should, in particular, support European Employment Services (and related EURES activities) especially the EURES cross-border partnerships in relation to recruitment and the related information, advice and guidance services at national and cross- border level, taking into account particularly cross border workers.

(6) At the same time, it is crucial to support the on-going development and competitiveness of European micro-, small and medium-sized enterprises, including cultural and creative undertakings, in order to create quality jobs, and to ensure that people can adapt, through acquiring appropriate skills and through lifelong learning opportunities, to new challenges such as the shift to a knowledge-based economy, the digital agenda, and the transition to a low-carbon and more energy-efficient economy. By pursuing its primary thematic objectives, the ESF should contribute to addressing these challenges. In this context, the ESF should support the labour force transition towards greener skills and jobs, in particular in the energy efficiency, renewable energy and sustainable transport sectors, taking into account the Union's intention to increase the proportion of the EU budget that is related to climate mainstreaming to at least 20%, with contributions from different policy fields.ESF should also contribute to cultural and creative skills in order to increase job opportunities.

Recital 5

(5) At the World Summit on Sustainable Development at Johannesburg in 2002, the Union and its Member States committed to act against the continued decline of many fish stocks. Therefore, the Union should improve its Common Fisheries Policy to ensure that as a matter of priority exploitation levels of marine biological resources stocks are restored and maintained at levels capable of producing maximum sustainable yields from the populations of harvested stocks by 2015, wherever possible and tailored to each fishery. Where less scientific information is available, this may require applying proxies to maximum sustainable yield.

(10) It is important that the management of the Common Fisheries Policy is guided by principles of good governance. Those principles include decision-making based on best available scientific advice, broad stakeholder involvement in shared management and shared responsibility and a long-term perspective. The successful management of the Common Fisheries Policy also depends on a clear definition of responsibilities at Union, national, regional and local levels and on the mutual compatibility and consistency of the measures taken with other Union policies.

(14) Rules in place restricting access to resources within the 12 nautical mile zones of Member States have operated satisfactorily benefiting conservation by restricting fishing effort in the most sensitive part of Union waters. Those rules have also preserved traditional fishing activities on which the social and economic development of certain coastal communities is highly dependent. Those rules should therefore continue to apply, reserving the 12 nautical miles for small- scale fishing in areas where this is possible.

(16) The objective of sustainable exploitation of marine biological resources is more effectively achieved through a multi-annual approach to fisheries management, establishing as a priority multi-annual plans reflecting the biological specificities of different ~~fisherie~~species and the special characteristics of each fishery. In order to develop the management plans, it is essential first of all to compile an atlas of existing fisheries that identifies these and existing fishing areas; an inventory then needs to be drawn up of existing management systems and the last step is to define the specific management units in order to produce final management plans.

Recital 22

(22) In view of the precarious economic state of the fishing industry and the dependence of certain coastal communities on fishing activities, ~~it is necessary to ensure the relative stability of fishing activities by allocating fishing opportunities among Member States, based on a predictable share of stocks for each Member Stat~~and the fact that the principle of relative stability has caused a significant discrepancy between the quotas allocated to the Member States and the actual needs and uses of their fleets, making it inappropriate for the allocation of fisheries at present, and thus provides no guarantee that fishing rights still belong to the corresponding coastal communities, it is necessary to abolish the principle of relative stability since it has lost its original meaning and should not prevail over the provisions of the Treaties, in order to avoid harming Member States that are discriminated against by the application of this principle.

Member States may exclude vessels up to 125 meteres’ length other than vessels using towed gear from transferable fishing concessions. Such a system should contribute to industry- induced fleet reductions and improved economic performance while at the same time creating legally secure and exclusive transferable fishing concession of a Member State’s annual fishing opportunities. Since marine biological resources are a common good, transferable fishing concessions should only establish user entitlements to a Member State’s part of annual fishing opportunities which may be recalled according to established rules.

To that end, the future financial instrument should earmark a specific percentage for small-scale fisheries, shellfishing, and extensive aquaculture, and a specific support programme should be established for small-scale fisheries, aimed at coastal communities which depend on fishing and giving priority, as regards access to the resources concerned, to those who fish and gather shellfish in the environmentally and socially most sustainable way.

Recital 7

(7) Producer organisations are the key actors for the appropriate application of the Common Fisheries Policy and the Common Market Organisation. It is therefore necessary to strengthen their objectives to ensure that their members carry out fishing and aquaculture activities in a sustainable manner, improve the placing on the market of products, and collect economic information on aquaculture. When realising these objectives, producer organisations should take account the different conditions of the fishery and aquaculture sectors prevailing in the Union, in particular the specificities of small-scale fisheries and extensive aquaculture.
