The #EUEconomicGovernance will be discussed by @EUCouncil today.

We call for making a difference between expenditures and investments. Public authorities at all levels need further flexibility to undertake investments, if the EU should reach its goal of boosting the economy.

RT @KlisovicJosko: To address energy crisis we need concerted action of EU, national & local level. Which means:

• direct access to EU funds for local authorities @PES_CoR
