Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8 a (new)

(8a) In order to ensure the visibility of the Union's assistance towards the citizens of the beneficiary countries and those of the Union, there should where appropriate be proper, targeted communication and information by adequate means, with due account being had to the specificities of each instrument. Appropriate minimum requirements should be defined in this regard by the Commission in close cooperation with beneficiaries, and the respect of those requirements should be monitored. This provision should not apply to the EIDHR where the confidentiality of the beneficiaries is important.
