On 21 June, Mr Franz, CULT's rapporteur for opinion on the 2022 EU budget, presented his approach to the 2022 budgetary procedure for the main programmes and budget lines of interest to the CULT committee.

Mr Franz proposed, inter alia, limited increases for the Erasmus+ programme and the European Solidarity Corps, in order to boost efforts to 'green' the programmes. Under Creative Europe, more support should be provided to support the post-pandemic recovery of the cultural and creative sectors, which have been severely affected.
The vote on CULT's budgetary amendments will take place on 13 July.
