Amendment 23 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4
Paragraph 4
4. Points out that the CEF is a grant facility and welcomes the Commission proposal to make that clear by incorporating the CEF financial instrument into the new InvestEU programme; deplores the fact that, in spite of the regrettable funding shifts benefiting the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) at the expense of the CEF, transport’s share of the EFSI is, quantitatively, nowhere near the 30% target figure and, in qualitative terms, falls far short of meeting the criteria for what constitutes European added value; stresses how important it is that, under the next MFF, the InvestEU programme should benefit projects with genuine European added value,; however, strongly underlines that this budget shall not be taken from the funding of the Horizon Europe Programme, but will be additional and congratulates the Commission for having proposed that one of the four areas of investment identified should be sustainable infrastructure;
