Riassunto In June 2018, the European Commission proposed a total budget allocation of €100 billion to finance science, research
and innovation projects during the 2021-2027 period, of which the vast majority, €94.1 billion in current prices, would
be allocated to the Horizon Europe framework programme. The main aims are to strengthen science and technology,
to foster industrial competiveness, and to implement the sustainable development goals in the EU. Horizon Europe
introduces new features such as the European Innovation Council, missions to promote research results, and new
forms of partnerships. Horizon Europe also aims at reducing administrative burdens and promoting the concept of
open science. More operational synergies are expected through better linkage with other EU programmes. In March
2019, Parliament and Council reached a partial agreement on most aspects of Horizon Europe. However, the financial
aspects were only settled in December 2020 as part of the broader MFF negotiations, together with the sensitive issue
of third-country association. The final text was adopted in April 2021 and entered into force retroactively from 1
January 2021. Third edition of a briefing originally drafted by Cemal Karakas. The 'EU Legislation in Progress' briefings
are updated at key stages throughout the legislative procedure.

Riassunto This Briefing forms part of an EPRS series offering syntheses of the pre-legislative state of play and consultation on
key European Commission priorities during the current five-year term. It summarises the state of affairs in the relevant
policy field, examines how existing policy is working on the ground, and, where possible, identifies best practice and
ideas for the future on the part of governmental organisations at all levels of the EU system of multilevel governance.
An EPRS analysis of the positions of partner governmental organisations at EU, national, regional and local levels
suggests that they would like the following main considerations to be reflected in the discussion of the communication
on the global approach to research and innovation (R&I): • Governmental organisations stress that research and
innovation (R&I) are essential for the global competitiveness of the EU and greater investment is needed to ensure that
the EU does not lose its leading position. There is a particular emphasis on the need for SMEs and regional clusters to
take part in innovation cooperation, building on existing programmes such as Eurostars. • Public authorities state that
third-country participation is essential for a successful R&I policy. However, the exact balance between openness and
‘strategic autonomy’ is harder to define. Some organisations state that systematic cooperation with third countries
should be simplified in terms of red tape. Others express concerns about lower international participation in successive
EU R&I programmes. • Various priority regions to be targeted were emphasised, namely, the broader European
neighbourhood, the Mediterranean region (PRIMA and BlueMed programmes cited as positive examples) and Africa.
Other respondents emphasised the need to deepen ties with strong research capacity countries, such as Australia,
Canada, Japan and the UK. • Governmental organisations share the view that mobility of researchers is vital in both
the European and international context. At the same time, EU R&I programmes should seek to prevent a 'brain drain'
both away from the EU and within the EU, by promoting and incentivising research careers. • Local and regional
authorities also call on the Commission to strengthen the links between R&I policies and EU cohesion policies,
including regional funds.

Riassunto This note intends to provide general information about simplification as well as to look a bit more in detail on this issue
in the framework of Cohesion Policy, Common Agricultural Policy and Research. These three EU policies represent
sectors that largely benefit from the financing of the EU budget and have experienced simplification due to the
response of the Commission, the European Parliament and the Council to the requests of final beneficiaries. At the
same time, there have been repeated calls from the European Court of Auditors regarding these policies to reduce
their complexity and further apply simplification measures, without compromising their functioning and the sound
financial management of the EU budget.

Riassunto The IA underpinning the proposal on the EU partnership on metrology is based on solid sources. The relatively narrow
range of options is pre-determined by the Horizon Europe provisions, and the mostly qualitative and comparative
assessment gravitates early on towards the preferred option. While subsidiarity, competitiveness and coherence with
the overarching political priorities are consistently addressed, the consideration of benefits and costs of the options
could have been more complete and precise. The role of the actors in the metrology ‘value chain’ under both the
current and the future scheme could have been better explained. The IA does not include budgetary implications nor
effects of the Covid-19 pandemic (justified by the ongoing negotiations at the time of drafting the IA), nor does it
assess certain novelties of the Horizon Europe partnerships, such as additionally and directionality.

Riassunto On 13 September 2017, the Commission adopted a cybersecurity package with a series of initiatives to further improve
EU cyber-resilience, deterrence and defence. A year later, the Commission presented a proposal for the creation of a
European cybersecurity competence centre with a related network of national coordination centres. The initiative aims
to improve and strengthen the EU's cybersecurity capacity, by stimulating the European technological and industrial
cybersecurity ecosystem as well as coordinating and pooling necessary resources in Europe. The competence centre
is supposed to become the main body that would manage EU financial resources dedicated to cybersecurity research
under the two proposed programmes – Digital Europe and Horizon Europe – within the next multiannual financial
framework, for 2021-2027. Within the European Parliament, the file was assigned to the Committee on Industry,
Research and Energy (ITRE). The report was adopted on 19 February 2019 in the ITRE committee. On 17 April 2019
the Parliament adopted its position at first reading, after two trilogue meetings, before the European elections. A new
trilogue meeting took place more than a year later, on 25 June 2020, and further negotiations followed. During the fifth
trilogue meeting on 11 December 2020, the negotiators of the Council and the European Parliament reached a
provisional agreement. The Council adopted the legislation on 20 April 2021 at first reading. The ITRE committee
adopted the draft recommendation for second reading on 26 April 2021, and it is expected that the European
Parliament will adopt the text during the May 2021 plenary session.

Riassunto With less than seven per cent of the global population, the European Union (EU) accounts for almost 20 per cent of
global investment in research and innovation (R&I). However, despite the well-known correlation between research,
development, innovation and competitiveness, when it comes to R&I expenditure as a percentage of GDP, the Union
performs poorly compared to South Korea, Japan, the United States (US) and China. Moreover, regional disparities in
R&I and a lack of private investment are significant indicators of certain R&I related shortcomings at EU level. While
the EU has reacted relatively rapidly to the challenges deriving from the coronavirus pandemic, challenges remain. To
better withstand unexpected future shocks and to strengthen the EU's R&I capacity, this Briefing explores a number of
options: (i) R&I related funding and budget lines should be increased. Public and private investments should be
promoted to bridge regional disparities and to meet the Barcelona objective of spending 3 % of GDP on R&I; (ii)
European and national laws could be more innovation-friendly, while the Union should further promote guidelines and
best practice to enhance R&I; (iii) the EU could translate visions into meaningful EU-wide missions and better support
the market launch of promising innovations; (iv) The Union should enhance its strategic autonomy in the digital field
and empower entrepreneurs and citizens to use digital skills; and (v) the realisation of the European research area and
European universities initiative has to proceed while further promoting the open access/science approach.

Riassunto This briefing is one in a set looking at the Commissioners-designate and their portfolios as put forward by Commission
President-elect Ursula von der Leyen. Each candidate faces a three-hour public hearing, organised by one or more
parliamentary committees. After that process, those committees will judge the candidates' suitability for the role based
on 'their general competence, European commitment and personal independence', as well as their 'knowledge of their
prospective portfolio and their communication skills'. At the end of the hearings process, Parliament votes on the
proposed Commission as a bloc, and under the Treaties may only reject the entire College of Commissioners, rather
than individual candidates. The Briefing provides an overview of key issues in the portfolio areas, as well as
Parliament's activity in the last term in that field. It also includes a brief introduction to the candidate.

opinione | Stato membro UE | tecnologia nucleare
Riassunto Energy policy is a competence shared between the EU and its Member States. Whereas the EU has responsibility
under the Treaties to ensure security of supply, Member States are responsible for determining the structure of their
energy supply and their choice of energy sources. EU legislation on security of supply focuses on natural gas and
electricity markets, and is closely related to other EU objectives: consolidating a single energy market, improving
energy efficiency, and promoting renewable energy sources to decarbonise the economy and meet the Paris
Agreement goals. The 2014-2019 legislature saw numerous initiatives in connection with security of supply. The EU
institutions reached agreement on a revised regulation on security of gas supply, a revised regulation on security of
electricity supply, a revised decision on intergovernmental agreements in the energy field, a targeted revision of the
gas directive to apply its key provisions to pipelines with third countries, and also new targets for energy efficiency and
renewables by 2030. Parliament also adopted several own-initiative resolutions in the energy field, including one on
the new EU strategy on liquefied natural gas and gas storage, which is key to gas supply security. Meanwhile, EU
projects of common interest (PCIs) finance energy infrastructure that improves interconnection and supports security of
supply. There is growing expectation among EU citizens that the EU will step up its involvement in energy supply and
security. Whereas this view was shared by just over half of EU citizens in 2016 (52 %), it is now expressed by roughly
two thirds (65 %). The EU will retain a key role in monitoring security of supply throughout the energy transition from
the old system of centralised generation dominated by fossil fuels in national markets, towards a new system
characterised by a high share of renewables, more localised production and cross-border markets. However, the EU
would need to use a special legislative procedure if it wanted to intervene directly in determining the energy supply of
its Member States. This procedure requires decision-making by unanimity in Council and only a consultative role for
the Parliament. This is an update of an earlier briefing issued in advance of the 2019 European elections.

Riassunto Through its industrial policy, the European Union (EU) has been striving to create conditions conducive to increasing
industry growth and competitiveness since 1992. European industry remains a cornerstone of the economy, providing
one job out of five, and is responsible for the bulk of EU exports and investment in research and innovation. Today, the
aim of EU policy is to enable a successful transition towards digital, knowledge-based, decarbonised and more circular
industry in Europe. To achieve this goal, the EU supports, coordinates and supplements Member State-level policies
and actions, mainly in the areas of research and innovation, SMEs and digital technologies. In a Eurobarometer poll
conducted for the European Parliament, more than half of EU citizens expressed support for increased EU action on
industrial policy. Despite this, it is still the least understood policy area covered by the poll. Since 2014, efforts have
been made in a number of areas, including investment (mainly through the European Fund for Strategic Investment,
which supports industrial modernisation); digitalisation (for example setting up a number of research partnerships, or a
growing network of digital innovation hubs); financing (making it easier for industry and SMEs to access public markets
and attract venture funds); greener industry (for example through the revised 2030 emission targets, or measures on
clean mobility); standardisation (bringing together relevant stakeholders to collectively develop and update European
standards); and skills (mobilising key stakeholders to close the skills gap and providing an adequate workforce for
modern industry). The European Parliament has called for ambitious policies in many of these areas. In the future, EU
spending on key areas relevant to industrial policy is expected to rise moderately. The European Commission is
proposing to boost the share of EU spending on research, SMEs and key infrastructure, although not as much as
Parliament has requested. In the coming years, policies are likely to focus on seeking fairer global competition,
stimulating innovation, building digital capacities and increasing the sustainability of European industry. This is an
update of an earlier briefing issued in advance of the 2019 European elections.

Riassunto The ERA is a coordination system for national research infrastructures, and itself constitutes an infrastructure designed
to create a single market for science. The main implementing instrument for the ERA is the European Union (EU)
framework programme for research and innovation (R&I), currently Horizon 2020, alongside national roadmaps for
implementing the common priorities. While the ERA offers a way to improve joint programming for research and
innovation activities, interaction between research infrastructures, the use of public-public partnerships between
Member States, the application of smart specialisation strategies (S3) and the mobility of researchers, challenges still
remain. The Horizon 2020 focus on excellence as the main criterion for receiving funding – a requirement designed to
cement the EU's reputation in science and its global competitiveness – has led to a concentration of funding as well as
R&I capacities in some countries and regions, while increasing the (innovation) gap between EU-15 and EU-13
countries. Other main challenges include the absence of a clear, shared definition of the ERA concept, the
multiplication of instruments, and the non-use of binding legislation for ERA implementation. One way to improve the
ERA and to broaden participation and cohesion without undermining the criterion of excellence might be to enhance
the interoperability between funding and programmes and to continue working on making the EU state aid rules more
R&I-friendly.

Riassunto The world of research and innovation is becoming increasingly multipolar with China joining the ranks of science and
technology leaders. For the EU, increased global research capacities offer a larger global talent pool and opportunities
for specialisation, but also increased competition for investment, talent and the position as world-leader in critical
technological fields. To be a global centre for excellent research, the EU and its Framework Programme must support
the further integration of the intra-EU excellent research pole and at the same time being open for foreign talent and
internationally connected with strong extra-EU partners.

Riassunto Artificial intelligence is changing the transport sector. From helping cars, trains, ships and aeroplanes to function
autonomously, to making traffic flows smoother, it is already applied in numerous transport fields. Beyond making our
lives easier, it can help to make all transport modes safer, cleaner, smarter and more efficient. Artificial intelligence-led
autonomous transport could for instance help to reduce the human errors that are involved in many traffic accidents.
However, with these opportunities come real challenges, including unintended consequences and misuse such as
cyber-attacks and biased decisions about transport. There are also ramifications for employment, and ethical questions
regarding liability for the decisions taken by artificial intelligence in the place of humans. The EU is taking steps to
adapt its regulatory framework to these developments, so that it supports innovation while at the same time ensuring
respect for fundamental values and rights. The measures already taken include general strategies on artificial
intelligence and rules that support the technologies enabling the application of artificial intelligence in transport. In
addition, the EU provides financial support, in particular for research.

Riassunto The autocratic policies pursued by Belarus's long-standing president, Alexander Lukashenko, have strained EU-
Belarus ties over the years. Against this backdrop, the EU has geared its support towards the Belarusian people at
large. The crisis in Ukraine slowly rekindled EU-Belarus relations, but the backbone of cooperation remains civil
society support and people-to-people contacts.

Riassunto Within the context of the multiannual financial framework the Commission is proposing Horizon Europe as the
framework programme for research and innovation to succeed Horizon 2020. This initial appraisal of the Commission’s
impact assessment on the proposal acknowledges the necessity for impact assessments in relation to financial
framework programmes to have a simplified format and scope differing from standard impact assessments and that the
document in question sets out the rationale for the new programme and explains the choices made in its design rather
effectively. It however questions the extent of the departure from the standard methodology and format of impact
assessments set in the Commission’s better regulation guidelines.

Riassunto Research and innovation have become indispensable elements in many areas of our daily lives, including health and
wellbeing (e.g. radiotherapy, vaccinations), the search for a sustainable environment (e.g. weather forecasts, solar
energy), safety and security (e.g. tsunami alerts, biometric border control) and end-user products (e.g. smart phones,
e-cars). Despite the correlation between research, development, innovation and competitiveness, when it comes to
international comparisons, most Member States lag behind the 'Barcelona target' to invest 3 % of national gross
domestic product (GDP) in scientific research and innovation. Better coordination of transnational research activities
and the completion of the European Research Area (ERA) could benefit the EU economy by an extra €16 billion per
year. The instruments, governance and scope of the framework programmes (FP) for research have changed
dramatically over time. These changes include the development of public-public and public-private partnerships, the
establishment of the European Research Council (ERC) and the European Institute for Innovation and Technology
(EIT), and the introduction of specific instruments for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as individual
mobility grants. To date, the current FP, Horizon 2020, has supported over 18 000 projects with more than €31 billion
in funding. Nevertheless, Horizon 2020 has shortcomings, including complex procedures, a high administrative burden,
a lack of flexibility when it comes to reacting to unforeseen circumstances, and insufficient synergies with other EU
funds and public interventions and/or private finance.

Material use in the European Union: Towards a circular approach

Riassunto Global material use has tripled during the past four decades, in particular as a result of increasing living standards. The
use of materials, which need to be extracted from our environment, can pose environmental challenges. It can also be
threatened by resource scarcity and price volatility. This is particularly true for Europe, which is strongly dependent on
imported materials. There are a number of ways to consider material use in the European Union (EU). The breakdown
of material use by types of materials indicates that non-metallic minerals, which include sand and gravel, account for
almost half of the materials used in the EU. Material flows provide an overall picture of how materials enter, are used
and finally leave the economy. Some of these materials stay in stocks, which are growing year after year. However, the
efficiency of material use, measured through resource productivity, has increased substantially since 2000, in part as a
result of the economic crisis. Material use in the EU is steered by policies related to different areas such as energy,
waste and industry. Relevant policy documents include the 2011 roadmap to a resource-efficient Europe, the 2013
seventh Environment Action Programme and the 2015 circular economy action plan. The EU supports these policies
with funding. Funding channels include the Horizon 2020 framework programme for research and innovation, which
allocated about €635 million between 2014 and 2020 for research on raw-material-related challenges. The European
structural and investment funds also support developing more efficient material use practices. The European
Parliament has advocated making the use of harmonised indicators for resource efficiency legally binding in the
Member States and setting targets for increasing resource efficiency. Parliament has also supported broadening the
scope of eco-design requirements to gradually include all relevant resource-efficiency features in product-design
requirements.

Riassunto The preparation process for an EU framework programme for research and innovation includes a variety of activities:
evaluation of the previous programme; expert studies to define the scope and priorities of the new programme; and
proposals for new instruments. The EU institutions, the advisory committees, the Member States and other
stakeholders also put their expectations and opinions forward on the shape and content of the programme. This paper
provides an overview of all the activities developed to contribute to the preparation of FP9. It also analyses the position
of all the actors on 10 key discussion points including: the difficult battle over the FP9 budget; the tensions between
support for excellence and the need for cohesion; streamlining of instruments and simplification of processes; requests
for greater EU added value from the programme, linked to its collaborative nature; the role of the Member States in the
programme's governance and implementation; and the expected innovations: the European Innovation Council and a
mission-oriented approach.

Riassunto As required by the regulation, the interim evaluation of Horizon 2020 – the European Union (EU) framework
programme (FP) for research and innovation – began in October 2016 with a public consultation to gather feedback
from stakeholders three years in. The Commission performed its own mid-term evaluation and asked experts to
evaluate the programme's specific instruments. In parallel, the European Parliament, the Council of the EU and the
advisory committees conducted their own, separate evaluations of the programme. The Commission adopted its
conclusions on the interim evaluation of Horizon 2020 in January 2018, confirming that the programme was relevant
and presented clear EU added value. Implementation was considered to be efficient and the first results suggested
that the programme was also effective in reaching its objectives. The integration of research and innovation and the
Horizon 2020 pillar structure provided for greater internal coherence compared with previous framework programmes.
All the evaluations highlighted four key issues to be addressed by the next FP. First, the programme budget needs to
match better the funding required to bring the success rate back to acceptable levels. Second, the unbalanced
distribution of FP funding across the EU raises concerns regarding the impact of the use of the excellence criterion and
calls for changes to enable the various EU funds to generate more synergistic effects so as to maintain EU
competitiveness and promote EU cohesion in research and innovation. Third, the evaluations highlight the will to
improve the shared, multi-level governance between the EU, Member States and regions and to promote the co-
design and co-construction of the FP with the public and civil society. Finally, there is widespread agreement that the
EU research and innovation funding landscape has become too complex and should be streamlined, questioning the
EU added value of each of the instruments and partnerships.
