Kaleidoscope: Community action programme 1996-1998 to support artistic and cultural activities with a European dimension

In adopting the report by Mr AUGIAS (PSE, I), the European Parliament approved the joint text but added a statement in line with that issued by the Commission on the adoption of the joint text. This statement says that the Commission will notify the Kaleidoscope Committee of all projects it intends to finance under the programme, in compliance with the procedures and interinstitutional agreements in force. Parliament, for its part, was not opposed to the committee being so notified, though it noted that the committee could not state a position on the selection of individual projects. It asked to be given the same information as that forwarded by the Commission to the committee. �
