Visit of Siim Kallas, Chairman of the High Level Group of Independent Experts on Monitoring Simplification for Beneficiaries of the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESI Funds), to Corina Creţu, Member of the EC
In line with the initiative "EU budget focused on results" and with the efforts for Better Regulation, today the Commission is taking stock of the work conducted by the High Level Group on Simplification for the beneficiaries of the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESI Funds). Red tape can be a deterrent for small businesses and start-ups; they might sometimes give up on the opportunities offered by the ESI Funds because of the administrative procedures. It means precious potential for improving Europe's competitiveness is left untapped. This is why a year ago the Commission launched a High Level Group on Simplification to find solutions and facilitate access to the European Structural and Investment Funds for businesses.
