| 5Transeuropean Networks Mobility & Transport

A few logical Questions from the concept paper– some already answered in the draft Declaration, some still missing, but perhaps worth also discussing?

1. Target: aiming high; what overall (& why)?

2. Arriving at a 2-year roadmap with quarterly milestones, incl. nomination of monitoring entity

3. What is missing in public European support (apart from the absolut level of financial support and the existing directive on clean fuels), i.e. are there any political obstacles and gaps in the pipeline?

4. Details: a. Tasks: what in detail? b. Players: who does what? c. Overall budgetary requirements
