Amendment 63 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 2
2. Recognises that the main obstacle to the successful implementation of the programme is the insufficient financial allocation and deeply regrets that it was cut by 13.7 % under the MFF 2014-2020, which has dramatically reduced the number of financeable projects and means that the high demand cannot be met, causing frustration among candidates with valuable projects;deleted

Amendment 70 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3
3. Notes that, owing to budgetary constraints, the total number of funded projects is too small to achieve the programme’s ambitious goals and that only around 6 % of the European Remembrance and Civil Society projects were able to be financed in 2015, which is very low in comparison to the Creative Europe programme results for the same year (19.64 % for Culture and 45.6 % for MEDIA); indicates that the funding for these two strands of the Europe for Citizens programme should be substantially increased;

Paragraph 9
9. Considers that, given the low rate of success of the European Remembrance and Civil Society projects in the Europe for Citizens programme (6 %, as against 19.64 % for Culture and 45.6 % for MEDIA in the Creative Europe programme), a 60 % increase in the current budget would be necessary in order to achieve a target rate of 20 % of funded projects; calls, therefore, on the Commission, the Council and the Member States to consider a total financial envelope of approximately EUR 300 million for the Europe for Citizens programme under the next MFF;deleted
