The Commission chose\nart. 173 TFEU as a legal basis for the regulation, together with art. 182, 183 and 184 TFEU.\nThis neglects that the Programme has two different, but in the proposal clearly mentioned,\ngoals, one being the competiveness and innovation capacity of the defence industry, the other\nbeing the improvement of the strategic autonomy\" of the Union (art. 3(1)). Art. 173 and the\nother articles omit the second goal of the programme. As both goals are inextricably linked\nand none could be identified as inferior, the programme would need to have a dual or\ndifferent legal basis. This is supported by ECJ ruling C-411/06 which clearly points out that a\ndual legal basis has to be taken as a starting point when two purposes are equal to each\nother.","location":[["Proposal for a regulation","\u2013"]],"meps":[124839,96833,124826,1854],"meta":{"created":"2019-07-03T05:56:46"},"new":["The Committee on Foreign Affairs calls","on the Committee on Industry, Research","and Energy, as the committee responsible,","to propose the rejection of the","Commission proposal."],"orig_lang":"en","peid":"PE627.696v01-00","reference":"2018/0254(COD)","seq":"16","src":"http://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/AFET-AM-627696_EN.pdf"},{"authors":"Bodil Valero on behalf of the Verts/ALE Group","changes":{},"committee":["AFET"],"date":"2018-09-14T00:00:00","id":"PE627.696-17","justification":" According to the Commission between 25 and 100 Billion EUR could be saved on an annual\n basis if Member States would cooperate in an efficient manner in the defence sector. Behind\n this background the first task is not to invest an additional 13 Billion EUR of public money in\n the very same sector, but to modernize relevant structures and introduce rules which would\n guarantee cooperative, transparent and efficient defence research and development projects.\n Instead of the present European Defence Fund which lacks any mechanisms for ensuring\n sustainable and efficient cooperation in Europe, the Union, and in particular the\n Commission, should focus on creating the regulatory conditions for the emergence of a\n modest European defence market which is characterized by a high efficiency rate and high\n quality products which enable European armed forces to implement national, EU, UN or\n NATO tasks. Instead of this European Defence Fund, the Commission should make proposals\n on how to better enforce the two Directives of the 2009 Defence Package and propose new\n legislative and other proposals on key issues such as standardisation, norms, certification and\n security of supply. As regards collaborative defence industrial projects, the Commission\n should offer its expertise, and its administrative capacity in order to help advancing in\n particular defence research, development and procurement projects which are relevant for\n implementing the military task of Article 43(1) TEU.","location":[["Proposal for a regulation","\u2013"]],"meps":[124993],"meta":{"created":"2019-07-03T05:56:46"},"new":["The Committee on Foreign Affairs calls","on the Committee on Industry, Research","and Energy, as the committee responsible,","to propose the rejection of the","Commission proposal."],"orig_lang":"en","peid":"PE627.696v01-00","reference":"2018/0254(COD)","seq":"17","src":"http://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/AFET-AM-627696_EN.pdf"},{"authors":" Sabine L\u00f6sing, Neoklis Sylikiotis","changes":{},"committee":["AFET"],"date":"2018-09-14T00:00:00","id":"PE627.696-18","justification":" The prior aim of the regulation is the development of EU - defence capabilities in the\n framework of CSDP/CFSP.

PURPOSE: to establish the European defence fund for\nthe period 2021-2027.
\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.
\n\nBACKGROUND: in an environment marked by the\nemergence of new threats, such as hybrid and cyber-attacks, and the\nreturn of more conventional dangers, EU citizens and their\npolitical leaders agree that the EU should collectively take more\nresponsibility for its security.
\nThe defence sector is largely fragmented across\nnational borders, with considerable\nduplication, resulting in inefficiencies that prevent economies of\nscale. At the same time, the cost of defence equipment and in\nparticular R&D costs have increased, while cooperation\nbetween Member States on investment in R&D and defence\nequipment has remained limited. In 2015, only 16% of defence\nequipment was procured through European collaborative\nprocurement.
\nIn June 2017, the Commission adopted a communication\nlaunching the European Defence Fund consisting of 'windows' for\nresearch and for capability. The communication was accompanied by a\nlegislative\nproposal for a Regulation establishing the European defence\nindustrial development programme under the capability\nwindow.
\nA two-step approach was proposed,\ninvolving:
\nCONTENT: the proposal for a Regulation - presented for\na Union of 27 Member States - concerns the establishment of the\nEuropean defence fund under the multiannual financial\nframework for the period 2021-2027 with a view to fostering the\ncompetitiveness and innovation capacity of the European defence\nindustry and technological base and thus contributing to the\nstrategic autonomy of the Union.
\nThe new fund shall promote cooperation between\nMember States and contribute to cost savings in the production\nof interoperable and advanced defence technologies and equipment.\nIts objective shall be:
\nEligible actions: the\nproposed Regulation shall enable the Commission to set up a\nfinancing programme, implemented mainly through grants awarded\nfollowing annual calls for proposals. Cross-border participation of\nSMEs and mid-cap companies shall be encouraged by offering\nhigher financing rates.
\nTo be eligible, actions shall, in principle, be\ncarried out in cooperation between at least three legal entities\nbased in at least three different Member States and/or associated\ncountries. Furthermore, the EU shall only co-finance the\ndevelopment of common prototypes if Member States commit themselves\nto buying the final product.
\nOnce assessed as eligible, a 'PESCO bonus', in the\nform of a higher funding rate, shall be granted to eligible\npermanent structured cooperation in defence\nprojects.
\nThe fund shall also take into account defence\nactivities implemented through the European peace facility,\nan off-budget instrument proposed outside the multi-annual\nfinancial framework.
\nProposed budget: the\nFund shall have an overall budget of EUR 13 billion (at\ncurrent prices) for the period 2021-2027, of which:
\nUp to 5% of the financial envelope shall be devoted to\nsupport disruptive technologies for defence.
\nPURPOSE: to establish the European defence fund for\nthe period 2021-2027.
