Paragraph 4
4. Recalls that the Commission’s proposed Financial Framework for the period 2014 - 2020 excludes the GMES programme completely, and asks the Member States to conduct a thorough cost-benefit analysis and, on that basis, to decide whether they wish to continue to cover the costs of the launch and annual maintenance of the programme; considers that this would lead to a potential temporary suspension of the programme itself, an interruption in data provision as a result, and a dependence on non-European space infrastructure;
