The five European Structural and Investment Funds;
| The European Regional Development Fund
| The European Social Fund
| The Cohesion Fund
| The European Maritime and Fisheries Fund
| The European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development
ESI FUNDSTHE 5
| EU Member States are required to draw up and implement
strategic plans with investment priorities covering the five ESI
Funds.
| These Partnership Agreements (PAs) are negotiated between the
European Commission and national authorities, following their
consultation of various levels of governance, representatives from
interest groups, civil society and local
and regional representatives.
AGREEMENTSPARTNERSHIP
Regions covering 88.10% of the population of the Czech Republic
will continue to be eligible for regional investment aid at a maximum
aid intensity of 25% of the eligible costs of the relevant investment
project.
| Whereas overall aid intensities have slightly decreased as compared to
the previous aid map (between 5 and 15 percentage points, depending on
the region), the population coverage remains nearly identical. This is in line
with the overall approach of the regional aid guidelines, which aim at
supporting the most disadvantaged regions of Europe.
AID PERCENTAGESMAXIMUM
| The region of the City of Prague, where 11.9% of the Czech population
lives, has a GDP per capita exceeding 100% of the EU average and will
thus not be eligible for regional aid between 1 July 2014 and 31 December
2020.
| This does not alter the current situation, since this region ceased to be
eligible for aid under the current map in 2009, after a transitional period
where aid was allowed in part of the region with a 10% aid intensity.
