I could not agree more with the proposals of both the Committee of Independent Experts and the European Parliament that, in each Member State, a single directorate-general should be entirely responsible for the implementation of the Structural Funds. This would improve coordination between the various departments of the Community, national and regional administrations involved.
I would also like to point up the need to concentrate more funding on project quality and on the real impact of the Structural Funds in the regions concerned.
