Abstract

CHAPTER 6 EUROPEAN ADDED VALUE, OPTION ANALYSIS, AND THE COMMISSION’S PROPOSAL FOR THE 7TH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME As discussed in earlier chapters, a broad range of inputs helped shape the Commission’s new Framework Programme proposal. Account was taken of the European societal challenges to be addressed, the role that S&T could play in addressing those challenges, Europe’s S&T weaknesses, the scope for public inter- vention, the European (research) policy context since Lisbon, the lessons learned from the implementation of past Framework Programmes, and the views of stake- holders.

The former consisted of making sure that the objectives of the actions proposed for inclusion in the Framework Programme were indeed best pursued at European rather than at national/regional level. The latter consisted of making sure that the implementation options selected were the best among the available options. The chapter is organised as follows. Section 1 considers the issue of European added value.
