(6) The systems established under the European satellite navigation programmes are infrastructures set up as trans-European networks of which the usage extends well beyond the national boundaries of the Member States and their trans-border application should be a matter of priority. Furthermore, the services offered through these systems contribute, in particular, to the development of trans- European networks in the areas of transport, telecommunications and energy infrastructures and thus the integration of the services into initiatives such as ITS, ERTMS, RIS, SESAR is crucial.

Recital 12
(12) Since the Union is responsible, in principle, for financing the programmes in full, it should be transparent and provision should be made for it to own all tangible and intangible assets created or developed under these programmes. In order to comply fully with any fundamental rights relating to ownership, the necessary arrangements with existing owners should be made, particularly for essential elements of the infrastructures and their security. In order to facilitate adoption of satellite navigation by the markets, there is a need to ensure that third parties can make optimum use in particular of the intellectual property rights arising from the programmes which belong to the Union, in particular at social and economic level.
