Training, youth and education: participation of the Czech Republic on Community programmes

The Committee has adopted the report by Dietrich ELCHLEPP (PES, A) on participation by the Czech Republic in EU programmes in the areas of training, youth and education (consultation procedure). The basic proposal seeks to alter the distribution of costs to take account of the Czech Republic's budgetary difficulties. The Culture Committee adopted only one amendment, which emphasises the need for a balance between the exchanges. The report is due to be debated at the July part-session.�
