As part of the Open Days 2012, the Subsidiarity monitoring network is organising a workshop on TEN-T policy. The workshop will take place on 10 October from 11:15 to 13:00 at the premises of the Committee of the Regions in Brussels.
The Committee of the Regions has followed the development of TEN-T in two different ways. First, two CoR opinions focusing on the TEN-T Guidelines and on the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) have been adopted. Second, a consultation of the Subsidiarity Network was carried out; and finally, this year's Action Plan of the Network has analyzed the new TEN-T policy from a subsidiarity and multilevel governance point of view.
The workshop will formally present the results of the Second SMN Action Plan and its final report. It will also be devoted to further explore and analyse multilevel governance and the respect of the subsidiarity principle in the context of this policy field.
Chair:
- Michael Schneider (EPP/DE), coordinator of the Subsidiarity Monitoring Network
Speakers:
- Ismail Ertug, MEP (DE/PES)
- Jean-Eric Paquet, Director of the European Mobility Network, DG MOVE
