PURPOSE: to create a mechanism to resolve legal and\nadministrative obstacles in a cross-border context.
\nPROPOSED ACT: Regulation of the European Parliament\nand of the Council.
\nROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: the European\nParliament decides in accordance with the ordinary legislative\nprocedure and on an equal footing with the Council.
\nBACKGROUND: since 1990, programmes under the 'European\nterritorial cooperation' objective, better known as\n'Interreg', have supported cross-border cooperation\nprogrammes in EU border regions, including those with EFTA\ncountries. Thousands of projects and initiatives that have helped\nto improve European integration have been funded.
\nIn recent decades, the European integration process\nhas helped internal border regions to transform themselves from\nmainly peripheral areas into areas of growth and\nopportunities.
\nHowever, the evidence gathered by the Commission shows\nthat, in general, border regions generally perform less well\neconomically than other regions within a Member State. Access\nto public services such as hospitals and universities is generally\nlower in border regions. Navigating between different\nadministrative and legal systems is often still complex and costly.\nThese programmes alone can hardly compensate for these\ndifferences.
\nIn its Communication\nof 20 September 2017 on EU border regions, the Commission\nhighlighted ways in which the EU and its Member States can reduce\nthe complexity, length and costs of cross-border interaction and\npromoted the pooling of services along internal borders.
\nIn 2015, the Luxembourg Presidency and several Member\nStates studied the possibility of creating a new instrument to\nsimplify cross-border projects by making it possible, on a\nvoluntary basis and agreed by the competent authorities in charge,\nfor the rules of one Member State to apply in the neighbouring\nMember State. This would apply to a specific project or action\nlimited in time, located within a border region and initiated by\nlocal and/or regional public authorities. The Commission supports\nthis idea and therefore proposes a voluntary mechanism to address\nlegal obstacles in border regions.
\nIMPACT ASSESSMENT: the Commission considers that a\nvoluntary mechanism to remove legal and administrative obstacles in\nall border regions would provide a cost-free legal framework in\norder to reduce the costs and time to complete certain cross-border\nprojects. If 20% of existing legal and administrative obstacles\nfound along internal borders were addressed, border regions would\nincrease their GDP by 2%.
\nCONTENT: the proposal for a Regulation sets up a\nmechanism to allow for the application in one Member State,\nwith regard to a cross-border region, of the legal provisions from\nanother Member State, where the application of the legal provisions\nof the former would constitute a legal obstacle hampering the\nimplementation of a joint project.
\nCharacteristics of the mechanism: the mechanism shall consist of the conclusion of a\nEuropean Cross-border Commitment, which is self-executing, or a\nEuropean Cross-border Statement which requires a further\nlegislative procedure in the Member State.
\nThe mechanism shall:
\nMember States opting for the Mechanism set up under\nthe proposed Regulation are obliged to establish a national or, in\nthe case of federal states, regional Cross-border Coordination\nPoints.
\nProcedure: the procedure\nfor concluding a commitment or statement consists in:
\nImplementation: the\nCommitment is implemented by, where relevant, amending\nexisting administrative acts based on the normally\napplicable law or adopting new administrative acts based on the law\npulled over the border.
\nThe Statement must be implemented by one or\nmore submissions of proposals to the competent legislative body in\norder to amend the national law to cover the necessary\nderogations.
\nIn both cases, once all steps planned are implemented,\nthe Cross-border Coordination Point must inform its counterpart in\nthe other Member State and the EU coordination point.
