CoR Monitoring Report on Europe 2020

Mon, 13 Dec 2010 08:55:30 GMT

We got greetings from The Europe 2020 Monitoring Platform team concerning our contribution to the Europe 2020 Strategy and the flagship project "Youth on the move".

"We are glad to send you the first CoR Monitoring Report on Europe 2020. You will find all languages versions of the Report on the following website: http://portal.cor.europa.eu/europe2020/news/Pages/1stCoRMonitoringReport.aspx

Your contribution to the "Youth on Move" Quick Survey was of a great value and is duly acknowledged in the Annex of the document.

The Report was discussed by the CoR Bureau on November 30 and presented to the Commission President José Manuel Barroso on December 1.

Addressing the CoR Plenary Session, Mr Barroso congratulated on the considerable work the CoR has already done in monitoring the Europe 2020 Strategy. He declared that "(…) the Commission will carefully consider the whole of your first monitoring report on the Europe 2020 Strategy, and will take your contribution into account as we continue its implementation." The Committee of the Regions is committed to monitoring the implementation of Europe 2020 on the ground and will continue with successive editions of the Report, every December, in the coming years.

The Europe 2020 Monitoring Platform team, in cooperation with the Platform's political coordinators, is currently planning actions for 2011 in view of the 2nd Monitoring Report (December 2011), about which you will be updated soon.

Kind regards,

The Europe 2020 Monitoring Platform team"
