Introduction by the President of the RegionLast year was the first year of the implementation of the Assembly-approved pro-gramme of the Regional Council (formed by a coalition of ČSSD and KSČM) . A re-port on its implementation, drawn up in December 2013, showed that the goals are indeed feasible and being implemented step by step .

In spite of significant pressure on budgetary expenses caused by extreme influences and stagnating income, the Region maintained its positive international rating with a stable outlook . We success-fully carried on in caring for the assets entrusted to us, did not assume undue debt and managed to draw money from operating programmes in a purposeful way . That is, after all, a permanent framework for our work . In the years to come, we will do every-thing to ensure that we draw European funds to the greatest pos-sible extent, to supplement our resources, which are insufficient for maintaining and increasing the level of services provided to people in our areas of responsibility .

In 2013, the planned difference between income and expenses was increased in the adjusted budget . The final balance amounted to CZK -547,162,000, which is CZK 1,817,441,000 better than had been expected . The improved result was achieved by greater income (primarily from taxes, but also non-tax income) vis-à-vis ex-penses and slower implementation of selected projects (multi-year projects), especially those co-financed from European financial re-sources and approved in the Region’s budget .

To obtain effective feedback on our activities directly in the territory under its administration, the Regional Council held its meetings in individual districts and communicated with the councils of the host cities and with representatives of key employers .

In a timely manner, the regional tripartite identified an increasing problem in the coal and steel sector, which provided a fundamental impetus for the Region’s leadership to launch into activities and communication directed at finding a solution, in cooperation with government bodies .

In terms of foreign relations, trips were made to countries and re-gions that may in the future be of key importance in terms of in-vestments in Europe and in the Czech Republic, directly in the Moravian-Silesian Region (e .g . People’s Republic of China) .

Fundamental conditions were set up for starting a process in co-operation with central government bodies of a real restructuring of the region that will go on until the end of the electoral term and is aimed at recovering the region’s dynamic development and mak-ing it attractive for people who live in it .

Dear Fellow Citizens,We have implemented the new style of work of the Region’s lead-ership together with municipal representatives and key employers in the Region, in order to bring the ideas embodied in the Coun-cil’s programme declaration to life, in the interest of our Region’s inhabitants .

The Regional Council regularly meets outside of the Regional Au-thority’s building, in order that it may better know and seek solutions to problems, together with those people whom they concern . The regional tripartite now has representative membership and deals with serious problems as soon as they arise, in the spirit of mutual cooperation and agreement of the partners . The Regional Author-ity is a reliable and stabilised backer of the political representation .

We will carry on in this work to make the Moravian-Silesian Re-gion a modern and self-assured region that has all that it needs for a happy future .

Basic Information about the Region The Moravian-Silesian Region, one of the fourteen regions of the Czech Republic, occupies the northeastern part of the country, along the Czech-Slovak-Polish bor-der . In the North and East, it borders on the Republic of Poland, namely with the Silesian and Opole Voivodeships . It shares its southeastern border with the Žilina Region of Slovakia . Nationally, its neighbours are the Zlín Region in the south and the Olomouc Region in the south-west .

With over 226,000 inhabitants, the Moravian-Silesian Region is the country’s third most populous region, but its 300 municipali-ties make it the region with the fewest settlements . Correspond-ing to this is a population density of 226 inhabitants per square kilometre, whereas the national average is 133 inhabitants per square kilometre . The average area of a municipality is 18 .1 sq km, the second largest in the country and 50% greater than the area of an average municipality nationally (12 .6 sq km) . Only less than 2% of the region’s inhabitants live in municipalities with fewer

than 499 inhabitants . Around 24% of the inhabitants live in munici-palities of 500 – 4,999 inhabitants and 14% of inhabitants live in municipalities of 5,000 to 19,999 inhabitants . Most of the region’s population (over 60%), which is unusual in the Czech Republic, live in cities of over 20,000 inhabitants . Nearly 300,000 people – roughly one-quarter of the region’s population – live in the region’s metropolis, Ostrava . Other large cities with over 50,000 inhabit-ants are Havířov (78,700), Karviná (59,200), Opava (58,400) and Frýdek-Místek (57,300) .

The Moravian-Silesian Region is divided into catchment districts around 22 municipalities with extended powers: Bílovec, Bo-humín, Bruntál, Český Těšín, Frenštát pod Radhoštěm, Frýdek-Místek, Frýdlant nad Ostravicí, Havířov, Hlučín, Jablunkov, Karviná, Kopřivnice, Kravaře, Nový Jičín, Odry, Opava, Ostrava, Rýmařov, Třinec and Vítkov .

After the breakup of Czechoslovakia, the region has become a northeastern border region, bordering on Poland and Slovakia, and the most remote in terms of direct contact with the country’s metropolis and economic stimuli from developed EU countries . The D1 motorway between Lipník nad Bečvou and Bohumín, which is nearly 80 km long, ensures transport service and brings economic revival . The road system is supplemented by major in-ternational roads - the I/11 (E 75): Opava – Ostrava – Český Těšín – Mosty u Jablunkova, and the I/48 (E 462): Nový Jičín – Frýdek-Místek – Český Těšín, which cross the region’s eastern part . The Moravian-Silesian Region is bisected by two railway tracks of Eu-ropean importance: the electrified tracks No . 270 and No . 320 . Track No . 270 is a major section of the country’s main railway line between Prague and Bohumín . Access to the region by air is en-sured by Mošnov International Airport, the second largest airport in the country, with a 3,500 metre landing runway, which allows aircraft of all categories to land without any limitations .

The Moravian-Silesian Region features a high-quality educational system . 97,120 pupils attend 444 primary schools, completing their compulsory school attendance . There are 142 secondary schools offering diverse programmes (44 are academic-track sec-ondary schools) and 2 conservatories, plus 13 higher specialised schools and five tertiary schools (Ostrava Technical University, Ostrava University, Silesian University in Opava, Ostrava Business School, and Havířov Social and Administrative College – Institute of Life-long Learning), whose 16 faculties provide instruction to more than 38,000 students .

There are 248 inhabitants per physician in the region; in terms of districts, this number ranges from 173 (District of the City of Os-

trava) and 312 (District of Bruntál) . There are 6,013 hospitals beds in the region in 18 hospitals and another 2,781 beds in specialised medical institutions and facilities for those with long-term illnesses . Social service facilities offer more than 10,300 places, primarily for the elderly .

Traditional cultural centres in the region are Ostrava and Opava, and in the Těšín area, which has a significant Polish minority, Český Těšín . There are many theatres, museums, and galleries in the re-gion . Ostrava is home to the internationally renowned Janaček Philharmonic Orchestra . More than 400 libraries are available for book lovers . Towns and cities offer a wide range of sports op-tions at their stadiums, multi-purpose halls and hundreds of play-ing fields, gymnasiums, swimming facilities and pools . Aside from cultural and sports options in cities and towns, the picturesque and diverse nature of Northern Moravia and Silesia offers count-less possibilities for recreation, tourism, sightseeing and curative stays . In summer, the region offers great conditions for hiking and biking within its extensive network of tourist trails, and in winter, the mountain ranges of the Hrubý Jeseník and Beskydy are sought-after cross-country and downhill ski centres . The Moravian-Silesian Region can boast many cultural sights; for example, urban heritage reserves (centres of Příbor, Nový Jičín and Štramberk) . Beautiful chateaus can be found in Hradec nad Moravicí, Raduň, Kravaře na Opavsku and in Fulnek . The region’s most important castles include Sovinec in the Rýmařov area, Starý Jičín, and Hukvaldy in the Beskydy foothills . A unique feature of the region is its wealth of opportunities for industrial tourism (Technical Museum of Cars in Kopřivnice, Train Car Museum in Studénka, Museum of Mining in Ostrava-Petřkovice, Lower Vítkovice Grounds, Michal Mine, etc .) . Water sport enthusiasts love going down the Moravice and Odra Rivers, and those who prefer recreation by large bodies of water visit the Žermanice and Těrlicko Reservoirs and, to a lesser degree, Slezská Harta . The spa business in the region is based on the use of the medicinal properties of iodine-bromium water in Darkov Spa and rehabilitation facility; since the early 1990’s, there has been a new spa sanatorium in Klimkovice, whose buildings feature in-teresting architecture .

Introduction by the Director

Dear Fellow Citizens: In 2013, the Regional Authority of the Moravian-Silesian Region continued to fulfil its main mission in accordance with high-level standards – it provided quality services to the public, provided services and made other arrangements for the functioning of self-administration, and implemented steps within transferred powers . All this means that it functioned as a reliable public service organisation .The Annual Report confirms that in 2013, we took further steps to ensure that the Authority is seen as an effectively functioning, communicating and competent insti-tution with satisfied clients and partners . That is why I thank all of its employees for their great commitment and their good work .

In 2013, the Moravian-Silesian Region and its Regional Authority received an award from the Czech Ministry of the Interior for quality and innovation in public administration . At the tenth annual Na-tional Conference on Quality in Public Administration, we, and the Vice-President of the Region for Transport and the Environment, Daniel Havlík, received two bronze rewards for introducing an en-vironmental management and audit system (EMAS) and for devel-oping communication with the public and further activities fulfilling the principles of the local Agenda 21 . At present, this is the highest possible award that a region and its regional authority can receive .

I am proud to say that in the performance of all its work the Region-al Authority respects the environment . By introducing the EMAS system, we were the first regional authority in the Czech Republic to declare that it is not indifferent to the state of the environment . The functioning of the EMAS system has been checked by an in-dependent auditor on two occasions . Aside from a positive public response and a higher level of awareness among the Regional Au-thority’s employees about the environment and ways of protecting it, the introduction of the system brought specific savings for paper, electricity, and fuel, a reduction of the overall amount of waste gen-erated and an increase in the proportion of sorted waste . This also means a significant saving of public funds .

It is very important that the public should be given an opportunity to formulate its ideas and suggestions and that they are passed on to the appropriate authorities and institutions . The Region and its Authority offer the best conditions and opportunities for this . Since 2009, we have been implementing the principles of the lo-cal Agenda 21 (MA21) . The method has been fully implemented within the Authority’s structure and activities are under way in the social and healthcare sphere . We organise, for example, Sustain-able Development Forums, at which political representative of the Region and employees of the Regional Authority meet and discuss with citizens . Major successes have been the adoption of the Dec-laration of a Healthy Moravian-Silesian Region by Members of the Regional Assembly and the membership of the Moravian-Silesian Region in the National Network of Healthy Cities . An Action Plan of MA21 Development and other documents and programmes

have been created . Money has been set aside for the implementa-tion of activities in this sphere .

Like every year, the Ministry of Finance audited our finances, checking whether the Moravian-Silesian Region managed its mon-ey in line with the law and other regulations in 2013 . Ministry of-ficials checked our accounting, our adherence to the budget of the Moravian-Silesian Region, financial operations, how the Region uses funds provided from the government budgets, how it man-ages its assets, and the awarding and implementation of public contracts, among other aspects . They ascertained that in 2013 the Region’s assets were used purposefully and economically in line with the Region’s interests and the tasks arising from the Act on Regions . They did not find any errors, shortcomings or serious risks that may have an adverse impact on the finances of the ter-ritorial unit in the future . I am pleased that the Ministry of Finance arrived at this positive conclusion for the tenth time .

Last year the Moravian-Silesian Region had also been a major ap-plicant for support from European financial resources . The Regional Authority was responsible for all the tasks related to the prepara-tion and the implementation of projects financed from the Europe-an Union . The Region successfully gained a large volume of money in operational programmes . In appreciating its assets the Region was able to invest CZK 1 .891 billion (of which CZK 1 .179 billion was paid from European or government subsidies) and to imple-ment 154 projects co-financed from European resources .

In 2013, the employees of the Regional Authority also paid exten-sive attention to the provision of professional and methodological help to municipalities . I am also pleased that the Regional Authority is connected with an accommodating approach to the transforma-tion of in-patient social services and the effort to offer a higher qual-ity of required care to seniors, disabled people and other people in need .

In the years to come, we will do everything to maintain this good reputation .

Now that it has been in place for two years, we can state clearly that there has been a positive qualitative shift in the performance of the Regional Authority in reducing adverse environmental impact . We have reduced, for example, our consumption of paper, energy, and fuel, and our production of waste . We would like to continue to focus on improving our environmental performance in all of our activities within the framework of the EMAS system and, no less important, to serve as an example of good practice and for mo-tivating other institutions, industry professionals, as well as the general public,” said the Director of the Regional Authority of the Moravian-Silesian Region, Tomáš Kotyza .

20 September: Regional bureaucrats came to work without their cars . Like last year, this Day without Cars, a part of the campaign called European Mobility Week, running from the 16th to the 22nd September, was supported by the employees of the Regional Au-thority . Nearly 200 of them came to work by means other than their cars on 20 September . Wearing white T-shirts with the logos of the European Mobility Week and of the Moravian-Silesian Region, they came to work by public transit, bike, scooter, in-line skates, or on foot, supporting the Europe-wide campaign that has the subtitle “Clean Air is Up to Us!” this year. The campaign focuses on in-creasing awareness about air pollution as a result of automobile traffic in towns and cities .

And the Director of the Regional Authority Tomáš Kotyza came to work by bus. “This year’s subtitle “Clean Air is Up to Us!” especially invites us to think about the problems that large cities have with automobile traffic . Up to one-third of all air pollution comes from it . That is why I think it is necessary to use all means to promote mass transit and other, alternative, means of transport,” said the Director of the Regional Authority Tomáš Kotyza .

It has friendly relations with the cities and the regions in which the automobile manufacturer operates (apart from in the Czech Republic, there are three Hyundai auto-mobile factories in Korea and China, three in India, and one in the USA, Turkey, Russia, and Brazil) . For that reason, the Korean side approached the Moravian-Silesian Region with a proposal for de-veloping friendly relations in the sphere of administration, finance, culture, education, tourism and sport . The proposed Memoran-dum of Understanding expresses the partners’ goodwill and will-ingness to cooperate and is the foundation for potentially entering into a cooperation agreement in the future .

The handing-over cer-emony was attended by 54 representatives of the municipalities that established the volunteer fire-fighting units which received the equipment. “Modern equipment for volunteer fire-fighting units that cooperate closely with the Fire Rescue Service of the Moravian-Silesian Region is extremely important, as it increases the possibil-ity of fast professional help . We purchase additional equipment for the volunteer fire-fighting units every year . The Fire Rescue Service of the Moravian-Silesian Region is one of the best-equipped units in the country and we want it to stay that way in the future,” said the 1st Vice-President of the Moravian-Silesian Region, Josef Babka .

The economic management of the region

Basic information regarding the Regional budgetary management for the year 2013The Assembly of the Moravian-Silesian Region approved the Regional budget in its Resolution No . 2/30 of 20 .12 .2012 . The budget of the Moravian-Silesian Region was compiled and approved as a deficit budget amounting to CZK 7,609,322 thousand . The approved level of resources consisted of incomes amounting to CZK 6,280,193 thousand and funding of CZK 1,329,129 thousand .

The approved income budget constituted tax incomes of CZK 4,302,600 thousand, non-tax incomes of CZK 184,620 thousand, capital incomes of CZK 85,980 thousand and grants received amounting to CZK 1,706,993 thousand . The approved expenditure budget of CZK 7,609,322 thousand was classified under routine expenditure of CZK 4,674,368 thousand and capital expenditure of CZK 2,934,954 thousand .

The Regional budget was increased during the year based on budgetary measures taken by the bodies of the Region during the year – an increase in the income budget of CZK 9,884,006 thousand to CZK 16,164,199 thousand and an increase in the expenditure budget of CZK 10,919,480 thousand to CZK 18,528,802 thousand . Four hundred and thirty-six budgetary measures were carried out, all having been approved by the Regional Council within the scope of its powers .

The increase in the income and expenditure budget mainly happened as a result of an adjustment to the level of expected grants for special purposes from public budgets and from abroad totalling CZK 9,710,469 thousand . This primarily involved part of a grant from the chapter of the Minister of Education, Youth and Sport intended for financing the direct education costs for the schools and the educa-tional facilities promoted by the Region and the municipalities amounting to CZK 9,108,680 thousand . In contrast to this, there was a re-duction in the adjusted budget on the resource side (incomes and funding) and on the expenditure side of the budget of CZK 1,358,482 thousand as a result of shifting the implementation of projects jointly financed with European resources . Another significant adjustment to the budget arrived as a result of including a part of the balance of budgetary management for the year 2012 of CZK 1,332,535 thousand and, within the bounds of special-purpose transfers to the Region’s adjusted budget, as a result of incorporating funds from a credit facility from ČSOB for the pre-financing of operations jointly financed with European funds of CZK 264,523 thousand . The remaining budgetary measures had no significant impact on the overall size of the Regional budget .

There was an increase in the planned balance of incomes and expenditures during the year 2013 from -CZK 1,329,129 thousand to -CZK 2,364,603 thousand . In actual fact, however, the balance of incomes and expenditures was -CZK 547,162 thousand as of 31 .12 .2013, an outcome that is CZK 1,817,441 thousand better than expected . However, this result does not correspond to the level of the remainder of funds in the Region’s accounts, which without including the resources from monetary funds not included in the Regional budget until 31 .12 .2013 was CZK 1,661,271 thousand, as a result of the difference between the level of the adjusted budget and the actual situation in relation to financing items .

The improved result was achieved by way of the higher payment of incomes (in particular tax and non-tax) as opposed to expenses and the slower implementation of selected operations (multi-year projects), in particular operations jointly financed by the European funding approved in the Region’s budget .

FinancingThe budget for the Moravian-Silesian Region for the year 2013 was approved as a deficit budget (the difference between incomes and expenditures being CZK 1,329,129 thousand) . As was the case in previous years, the approved Regional budget for 2013 was partly built on financing through the use of part of available funds from 2012 of CZK 492,394 thousand, on the receipt of long-term borrowed re-sources of a total of CZK 1,938,377 thousand and the budgeted repayments of these borrowed resources of CZK 1,081,642 thousand . The level of resources and expenditures was balanced by including resources from 2012 and borrowed, returnable sources of financing . Budgetary adjustments concerning the area of financing were successively made from the beginning of 2013, both in connection with the precise enumeration and the subsequent inclusion of the positive balance for budgetary management for 2012 and in relation to the level of received long-term borrowed resources .

There was an adjustment to the financial resources as of 31 .12 .2013 representing resources for the year 2012 – these were intended to cover individual expenditures in the budget for 2013 – from CZK 492,394 thousand to CZK 1,824,929 thousand . The main reason for this was the inclusion of purpose-bound financial resources in operations jointly financed using European funding and operations involving the capital improvement of the Region’s assets, for which there occurred the extension or shift of the period of implementation, and funds involved in relation to the payment of other obligations in the sphere of the Region’s self-governing activities, in particular those relating to contractual obligations for the year 2012 . Financial resources amounting to CZK 28,284 thousand were set aside outwith the Region’s budget for the year 2013 during the year, representing a transfer to the Environmental Fund of the Moravian-Silesian Region, in that resources amounting to CZK 24,980 thousand were included and simultaneously used within the scope of the Region’s budget for the year 2013 . Moreover, the resources from the Securing Fund of CZK 2,090 thousand and the resources from the Regional Development Fund of CZK 2,600 thousand were also included and simultaneously used in 2013 within the scope of the Regional budget for 2013 .

Aggregate budgetary adjustments within the bounds of projects financed using European funds were also made during 2013 . With regard to the changes made in connection with the preparation and the implementation of individual projects, the budgeted payment of a repayment of the credit facility framework provided by Československá obchodní banka, a .s . for the year 2013 was reduced by CZK 436,808 thousand, among other, and the budget for drawing on credit facility frameworks for the year 2013 was also reduced by CZK 590,755 thousand in relation to Československá obchodní banka, a .s . and by CZK 164,500 thousand in relation to the European Investment Bank .

The balance of incomes and expenditures was -CZK 2,364,603 thousand, within the bounds of the adjusted budget as of 31 .12 .2013 (the adjusted financing budget therefore stood at a total of CZK 2,364,603 thousand) .

The indebtedness indicator according to Moody´s Investors Service, which is used for re-evaluating the Region’s international rating, was 14 % as of 31 .12 .2013 . It is expressed as a ratio of debt (i .e . the value of all credit facilities actually drawn by the Region and outstanding) to the operating incomes of the Region (i .e . tax incomes, non-tax incomes and non-investment grants) . In order to sustain the Region’s rating at its current level of A2, representatives of the company recommend not overstepping the value of 20 % over the long-term .

The Region is bound to comply with another indicator by a Contract on Financing the Project Czech Republic – Infrastructure in the Moravian-Silesian Region, which the Regional Assembly decided to enter into with EIB in its Resolution No . 5/209/1 of 23 .6 .2005 and which is effective to the end of 2018 . The Regional Assembly, in its Resolution No . 6/415 of 19 .9 .2013, stated that it considers the cur-rent limitation of the level of indebtedness of the Region determined based on the financial indicators defined in the Contract on Financing the Project Czech Republic – Infrastructure in the Moravian-Silesian Region, entered into with EIB in 2005, to be sufficient . The indica-tor is expressed as a percentage of the total indebtedness in operating incomes . The threshold value in this case is 50 % . All financial obligations, meaning credit facility obligations and guarantees provided, and other long-term obligations are included in the value of total indebtedness . Tax incomes, non-tax incomes and operating grants are included in the value of operating incomes . This indicator had a value of 17 .5 % on 31 .12 .2013 .

ExpensesThe total expenses of the Moravian-Silesian Region were budgeted in the approved budget for 2013 at CZK 7,609,322 thousand .

In cases in which it was no longer possible to support projects within the scope of the grant programmes in 2013 (mainly due to the fact that they did not fully comply with all the terms and conditions of the grant programme or the acceptance of applications for the grant programme had come to an end), the Moravian-Silesian Region provided individual grants . Individual grants were provided in the areas of transport, crisis management, culture, the presentation of the region and the publishing plan, regional development, tourism, social affairs, education, health, the environment, finance and asset management .

The finances earmarked for the implementation of grant programmes in the approved budget for the year 2013 accounting for 1 .4 % of the total budgeted expenditure of the Region . The aim of financial aid was to use the funds provided as part of projects to support important cultural activities in the region, to help restore cultural monuments and the protected realty of the Moravian-Silesian Region, to provide the requisite social services, to apply the social policy of the Region, including support for preventative projects aimed at eliminating the oc-currence of crime and other social-pathological phenomena, supporting quality education and leisure time for children and young people, increasing the environmental stability of the landscape, influencing the territorial and economic development of the Region and, last but not least, raising its publicity profile by offering opportunities for active relaxation in the Region and promoting tourist destinations in relation to this . No less important was financial aid for the preparation of project documentation for the submission of applications to programmes financed by European financial resources and support for the development plans of municipalities with up to 10 thousand inhabitants by pro-viding investment grants from the Regional budget for the joint financing of their own share when drawing grants from European Union funds .

Individual grants

Individual grants totalling CZK 128,963 thousand were provided for municipalities, voluntary associations of municipalities, other public budgets and other legal and natural persons in 2013 outwith the grant programmes provided from the Regional budget . Grants for organ-isations promoted or established by the Region, grants provided according to special law (for example, for transport services, the regional operation of libraries etc .) and grants financed from other sources (for example, with grants, a contribution from HMMC for the assurance of assignments to be carried out by fire rescue units, fees for the taking of underground waters etc .) are not included in this amount .

Operations jointly financed by European funding within the 2007 – 2013 programme period

The Czech Republic’s accession to the European Union opened up a wider range of possibilities for using funding from the common budget of the European Union, in particular through structural funds and the Cohesion Fund . The year 2013 saw the Moravian-Silesian Region continued its preparation and implementation of individual projects and of global grants as part of the operational programmes specified in more detail in the following table .

The expenditure actually drawn by 31 .12 .2013 stood at CZK 16,914,008 thousand, which represents fulfilment at a level of 91 % of the ad-justed budget . The drawing of funding for the implementation of projects was affected by the following:

• the inclusion of the grants received in the Regional budget for the implementation of multi-year individual projects that are provided on the basis of advance payments; the budgeted expenses do not therefore correspond to the actual need in the relevant budget year;

• a shift of the time schedule for the implementation of projects;• time delays within the process of selecting building contractors (the prolongation of the time limits for submitting offers with regard

to the considerable number of inquiries, the repeated call for offers, the process of discussing objections, passing on the results of tenders to a management body for checking);

• the long approval process for submitted applications for a grant.

The Social Fund

The statutes of the social fund were approved by the Resolution of the Regional Council No . 155/5570 of 5 .12 .2007 and came into effect on 1 .1 .2008 (replacing the statutes of the social fund approved on 7 .3 .2003 and their five addenda) .

The closing level of the fund as of 31.12.2013 after final settlement of accounts: CZK 586 thousand

The Securing Fund

The Securing Fund was created based on the Resolution of the Regional Assembly No . 13/352/2 of 12 .12 .2002 . The new statutes of the Securing Fund were approved by the Resolution of the Regional Assembly No . 20/1601 of 22 .6 .2011 in connection with the repeated floods having struck the Moravian-Silesian Region in recent years and the experiences gained from these natural disasters . The main purpose of the fund is to create a special-purpose source, mainly for financing extraordinary, unforeseen and unexpected expenditure in connection with the damage caused by forces and phenomena brought on by the activities of humans, by the influences of nature and by accidents that endanger life, health, property or the environment (crisis situations) and that require rescue, clear-up and reconstruction work .

The final change led to an amendment to the use of the fund, in that the statutes of the fund now allow the fund to be used in order to ensure the Aid Programme for Small and Medium-sized Businesses in the Moravian-Silesian Region (Program podpory malých a středních podniků v Moravskoslezském kraji), which is implemented through the provision of micro-loans.

The purpose of the fund is to create special-purpose sources for financing development projects and grant titles in the Moravian-Silesian Region, including support for regional development in individual areas according to Act No . 248/2000 Coll ., On Support for Regional Development and Act No . 129/2000 Coll ., On Regions (the Establishment of Regions), as amended .

Some CZK 2,500 thousand were transferred from the fund to a joint resources account in 2013 as the share of the Region in the joint project entitled Aid Programme for Small and Medium-sized Businesses in the Moravian-Silesian Region, which the Region is carrying out together with the Chartered City of Ostrava . The aim of the project is to offer public support for small and medium-sized business undertakings or start-up businesses in the Moravian-Silesian Region by providing loans with which to finance their projects under favour-able conditions .

The economic management of organisations receiving contributions

The Region promotes organisations receiving contributions for the activity that falls within its powers; these organisations are usually non-profit organisations whose scope, structure and complexity requires independent legal personality .

The Region was the promoter of 229 organisations in the region receiving contributions as of 31 .12 .2013 . The number of organisations was reduced from 235 to 229 during 2013 at the decision of the Regional Assembly . Changes were made in the sphere of education, where 4 organisations receiving contributions were amalgamated with other successor organisations and 2 organisations receiving con-tributions were dissolved and transferred to a different promoter (municipality) during the year 2013 .

The organisations in the region receiving contributions engage in economic activity using funds that come from different sources . These are mainly funds received from the budget of the promoter, meaning the Moravian-Silesian Region, from the State Budget and from re-sources provided from the budget of European funds via the budget of the promoter . In addition to the above, an organisation receiving contributions engages in economic activity with finances provided from the budgets of self-governing territorial units or from state funds that were not provided via the budget of the promoter - the Moravian-Silesian Region .
