Thematic Objectives
Thematic objectives constitute the basis for the Common Strategic Framework, which shall outline key actions for each thematic objective In the case of Cohesion Policy every action financed must be linked to a particular thematic objective
Reporting (on financial progress, indicators etc.) can also be linked back to particular thematic objectives
Technical assistance is the exception TA is not linked to any of the thematic objectives

European Union
Investment priorities
Each thematic objective is translated into investment priorities (in Fund-specific regulations) The list of investment priorities is exhaustive Investment priorities are also objectives, not types of intervention. This leaves flexibility to design the optimal mix of actions

Investment priorities
Example Thematic objective: Promoting climate change adaptation, risk prevention and management Investment priorities (ERDF): supporting dedicated investment for adaptation to climate change promoting investment to address specific risks, ensuring disaster resilience and developing disaster management systems
11

Investment priorities
Example Thematic objective Investing in education, skills and life-long learning Investment priorities (ESF): Reducing early school-leaving and promoting equal access to good quality early-childhood, primary and secondary education Improving the quality, efficiency and openness of tertiary and equivalent education with a view to increasing participation and attainment levels Enhancing access to lifelong learning, upgrading the skills and competences of the workforce and increasing the labour market relevance of education and training systems

European Union
Investment priorities
Example Thematic objective: Protecting the environment and promoting resource efficiency: Investment priorities (Cohesion Fund) addressing the significant needs for investment in the waste sector to meet the requirements of the Union's environmental acquis addressing the significant needs for investment in the water sector to meet the requirements of the Union's environmental acquis protecting and restoring biodiversity, including through green infrastructures improving the urban environment, including regeneration of brownfield sites and reduction of air pollution

Timeline
March 2012: Staff Working Document on Elements for a Common Strategic Framework During 2012-2013: Dialogue between COM and MS on Partnership contracts and operational programmes Adoption of legislative package, immediate entry into force + 3 months: COM adopts CSF by delegated act + 6 months: MS to transmit Partnership contracts and programmes (incl. ex-ante evaluations); COM to make observations within 3 months, adoption within 6 months; PC to be adopted before OPs + 9 months: ETC programmes to be submitted to COM PCs can already be adopted before 2014

CSF can be reviewed and revised, if there are major changes to the Union strategy of smart, sustainable and inclusive growth
If this takes place, MS should review their PCs and operational programmes to establish whether they are still consistent with the CSF and whether changes are needed Where necessary, MS should submit proposals for amendment of the PC and the operational programmes

Partnership Contract
Prepared at national level with close involvement of partners
Agreed between the Commission and Member State, includes: The contribution of the CSF Funds towards the achievement of thematic objectives, translating Europe 2020 priorities in a national and/or regional context Summary of the main results expected The main priority areas for cooperation An integrated approach for territorial development supported by the CSF Funds Arrangements for effective implementation: involvement of partners, ex-ante conditionalities, performance framework, additionality Arrangements for efficient implementation: administrative capacity, administrative burden reduction

Partnership Contract
Added value of the Partnership Contract
Coordination between CSF Funds at national level Framework for thematic concentration Demonstrating overall contribution to EU 2020 A coherent approach to territorial development at Member State level Framework for all cooperation activities Overview of all commitments taken at regional and national level
22
European Union
Partnership Contract
The institutional and constitutional arrangements of each Member States shall be respected
Three possible processes for ensuring coherence between EU, national and regional objectives:
1) Centralised arrangements: PC as the strategic basis for the preparation of operational programmes (top down process) 2) Mixed arrangements: iterative process between strategic development and the preparation of operational programmes (parallel process)
3) Federal arrangements: PC is built on commitments taken under regional and national operational programmes (bottom-up process)

Principles of programming
Operational programmes will constitute the main management and monitoring unit under cohesion policy Member States will have the flexibility to choose the appropriate level of programming. As a general rule, operational programmes under ERDF and ESF should drawn up at the appropriate geographical level and at least at NUTS level 2, in accordance with the institutional system specific to the Member State. Operational programmes can be established both at regional and at national level. Where appropriate, the Member State may reach an agreement with the Commission to prepare operational programmes covering smaller regions than NUTS 2. Operational programmes with support from the Cohesion Fund shall be drawn up at national level.

Categories of intervention
Will be approved by implementing acts Many categories are implicitly linked to a thematic objective (e.g. railways are linked to transport) However there is no one to one link, e.g.:
Housing linked to energy efficiency Housing linked to social inclusion
OP will need to contain a list of categories (priority theme) per priority axis
