  • [01] 600 travailleurs lituaniens du secteur textile vont bénéficier d'une aide du Fonds européen d'ajustement à la mondialisation

    La Commission européenne a approuvé aujourd'hui une demande d'aide du Fonds européen d'ajustement à la mondialisation (FEM) introduite par la Lituanie. La demande va maintenant être transmise au Parlement européen et au Conseil pour décision. La contribution du FEM aidera les 600 travailleurs les plus touchés du secteur textile, qui ont été licenciés, à retrouver un emploi. La demande d'aide – d'un montant de 298 994 euros – a été introduite après que 1 089 travailleurs ont été licenciés par Alytaus Tekstilė à Alytus, dans le sud de la Lituanie.

    [02] Emissions Trading: Commission to connect EU with UN carbon credit registry before December

    The European Commission, Member States and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Secretariat have successfully completed all the testing required for connecting to the UN's international carbon credit registry. The EU's Community Independent Transaction Log (CITL) and Member State registries will be connected to the UN's International Transaction Log (ITL) before December 2008 at the latest. The link will mean carbon credits issued under the Clean Development Mechanism can be transferred to the registries of EU Member States.

    [03] Call for tender for an evaluation of the Farm Advisory System within the context of the CAP

    The European Commission has launched a call for tender for a retrospective evaluation of the effectiveness, efficiency, coherence and relevance of the Farm Advisory System within the context of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). The aim of this retrospective evaluation is to assess the impacts of the implementation of the instrument (including the support provided by the rural development policy) by the Member States with respect to achieving the objectives laid down in Council Regulations (EC) No. 1782/2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes and other support schemes under the CAP. In particular, the evaluation will assess the impact of the implementation of the System with respect to: (1) Farm and land management; (2) Farmers' income; (3) Achievement of global objectives in terms of meeting the standards of modern, high-quality agriculture; (4) Other impacts, and unintended side-effects; (5) Administrative requirements for the Member States and the farmers and (6) Efficiency, relevance and coherence of the instrument. The maximum budget attributed to this project is € 400,000. The deadline for submitting offers expires on 27/10/2008. The Commission intends to award the contract before the end of 2008, following the evaluation of the offers received. The contractor will have to carry out the evaluation within 10 months from the signature of the contract.
