Amendment 103 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 20
(20) In order to avoid the cost over-runs and delays which have affected the progress of the programmes over the last few years, efforts need towill be stepped up to control risks which might lead to excess costs as requested by the Council and the Parliament in their respective conclusions and resolutions of 31 March 2011 and 8 June 2011, and as shown by the Commission's Communication to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions of 29 June 2011 entitled 'A budget for Europe 2020'13. Deployment and exploitation risks have been estimated to represent about EUR 1 005 million (at current prices) and have been included in the financial envelope of the programmes. Should additional financial resources be needed for these programmes, they should not be found at the expense of smaller successful projects that are financed by the general budget of the European Union. Any additional financial resources derived from these risks should be covered by the margin between the own resources and the ceilings of the multiannual financial framework.
