ORAL QUESTION H-0504/00
for Question Time at the part-session in June 2000
pursuant to Rule 43 of the Rules of Procedure
by Pedro Aparicio Sánchez
to the Commission

The CONNECT initiative was launched in 1999 at the European Parliament's instigation. Ninety-one of the 517 projects submitted have been co-financed by the Commission.

 

What is the Commission's assessment of the initiative's first year of operation?

 

Does the Commission consider that the CONNECT objectives and activities are sufficiently well incorporated into the new education and culture programmes?

 

If not, how can the discontinuation of the initiative with effect from 2002 be justified?
