The Commission supports the common position, which reflects a compromise which the Commission, the Council and the European Parliament can agree on. It incorporates a large majority of Parliament’s amendments in the text, either in full or using different wording. On the whole, the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission had convergent views on this Programme.
The Commission has added a declaration stating that non-governmental organisations set up at national level in the Member States may take part in the programme.
