Amendment 36 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 5
(5) The ERDF should contribute to the Europe 2020 strategy, thus ensuring greater concentration of ERDF support on the priorities of the Union. According to the category of regions supported, the support from the ERDF should be primarily concentrated on research and innovation, small and medium-sized enterprises and climate change mitigation. The degree of concentration should take into account the level of development of the region as well as the specific needs of regions whose GDP per capita for the 2007-13 period was less than 75% of the average GDP of the EU-25 for the reference period.

Amendment 41 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 7 a (new)
(7 a) A shift towards sustainable mobility - based on multimodal transport, integrated transport systems and diversion of international and transit traffic out of the city centres - is crucial to achieve its EU 2020 targets, given that transport accounts for 24 % of all CO2 emissions in the Union and transport in the Union has seen its emissions increase by 34 % since 1990. The sustainable mobility will require major investments, e.g. in bypassing urban areas, promotion of modern and environmentally friendly public transport, intelligent traffic management systems as well as public logistic platforms or intermodal terminals.

Amendment 48 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
(10) The ERDF should address the problems of accessibility to, and remoteness from, large markets facing areas with an extremely low population density, as referred to in Protocol No 6 on special provisions for Objective 6 in the framework of the Structural Funds in Finland and Sweden to the 1994 Act of Accession. The ERDF should also address the specific difficulties encountered by certain islands, mountainous areas, border regions and sparsely populated areas whose geographical situation slows down their development, with a view to supporting their sustainable development. As a next point, the ERDF should address the problems of regular transport services to and from national and regional capitals, links between cities and their surrounding areas - including rural areas - or regions, connections of industrial zones and international airports as well as cultural exchange and tourism infrastructure.

Recital 4
(4) In order to address the specific needs of the ERDF, and in line with the Europe 2020 strategy12 that cohesion policy should support the need to deliver smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, it is necessary to set out within each thematic objective laid down in Article 9 of Regulation (EU) No […]/2012 [CPR] the ERDF-specific actions as ‘investment priorities’. This list of investment priorities should not be interpreted as rules of eligibility but as areas where the focus of support should be directed, thus setting the objectives of the ERDF at a more specific level.
