A clearer path is needed to show what will happen to future EU funding in Wales and how it will be used by a wider variety of organisations to help some of our poorest areas – these are the main conclusions in two separate reports from the National Assembly for Wales published in July 2010 The European and External Affairs Committee has released its second report on the future of Cohesion Policy and has warned that Wales will need further support from European Structural Funds post 2013. In a separate report, the Enterprise and Learning Committee believed more must be done to ensure European Structural Funds are used more creatively in stimulating sustainable long-term improvements in the Welsh economy such as growing the digital, creative and green industries. Its inquiry found that while there was plenty of praise from the European Commission for the Welsh Government and the Welsh European Funding Office (WEFO) over the administration of the Structural Funds, there are important issues that need to be addressed, such as the need to engage smaller players from the third and private sectors. |
