Amendment 6 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3
3. Is strongly concerned by the sharp downfall in public and private investment in the productive economy and especially at the local and regional level; Is of the opinion that decisive measures are needed to reform product and labour markets, adopt cautious wage policies and base the future growth model on innovation and shift production towards high value-added activities; Expresses its firm belief that the Structural and Investment Funds are essential in order to prevent and mitigate any shortfall in the aforementioned respects; and for boosting public investments; points out to opportunities which could be used in the Member States to support public investments from the Structural Funds by providing certain flexibility to the financial procedures of these funds, e.g. by increasing the co- financing rates of the states which enter into an adjustment programme and receive the EU financial assistance or by prolonging the decommitment rule by one year for all Member States in the programming period 2007 - 2013 (as will be the case in the programming period 2014 - 2020).
