ACTIVITIES OF THE COMMON SECRETARIAT SINCE JULY 1998  JULY 1998 – MARCH 1999   1. After the meeting of the Management Committee (July 20, 1998)  After the meeting of the Management Committee on July 20, 1998 the Common Secretariat finished the minutes of the meeting, informed all project co-ordinators about the approval of their projects, corrected the rules of procedure of the Management Committee and finished the written procedure for the project amendment of C1.  At the beginning of September 1998 the Common Secretariat sent the first progress report to the European Commission, GD XVI.  On September 22, 1998 the presidency passed to Germany. The chairman of the Management Committee is now Mr. Buchholz, the chairman of the Common Secretariat is Ms. Amor.  In October the Common Secretariat sent the application form of an additional project part of B1 in Germany to the members of the Management Committee. This additional part was approved by written procedure.   2. Meeting of all INTERREG II C and Pilot Action Programme Secretariats  On October 19, 1998 the Common Secretariat went to a meeting of all INTERREG II C and Pilot Action Programme secretariats in Brussels. The secretariats discussed the following points: • State of progress of the various programmes • Scope for co-operation between the Secretariats (e.g. evaluation, financial management system, joint exhibition) • Participation in the ESDP Forum (February 1999) • Any other business   1. Meeting of the Common Secretariat   On October 29, 1998 the members of the Common Secretariat met in Munich to discuss the following points: • Current situation in all countries: approved projects, application for new projects • Discussion about public relations in the programme • Discussion and preparation of the ESDP-seminar in Vienna • Next steps  It was decided to prepare a brochure about the programme for the ESDP-seminar in Vienna. The members of the Common Secretariat discussed the contents of the brochure and the presentation of the programme during the seminar.    MARCH 1999   SECOND PROGRESS REPORT   3 1. ESDP-Seminar in Vienna  The Common Secretariat participated at the ESDP-Seminar in Vienna November 25/26, 1998. In Workshop B ”The eastern Alps” the Common Secretariat had the opportunity to present the programme and distributed a brochure. The project co-ordinator of A1 presented the first results of the project REGIONALP and an expert/consultant of the commission prepared a critical assessment about the coherence between ESDP-policy options and the priorities of the pilot action programme. Mr. Ambrosi, the representative of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, gave an outlook of the experiences of this region and Mr. Dufeil gave his comments and suggestions about the pilot action programme and the ESDP.   2. Meeting DG XVI with secretariats  On December 2, 1998 the Common secretariat went to a meeting of the DG XVI with all secretariats and co-ordination of INTERREG IIC and Art. 10 pilot action programmes in Brussels. The aim of this meeting was the preparation of the final ESDP forum in Brussels (February 2/3, 1999).    3. ESDP Forum in Brussels  On February 2/3, 1999 the Common Secretariat participated at the final ESDP Forum in Brussels. The ”Alpine Space” pilot action has been the subject particularly of Session 2 ”Spatial planning in practice” and of the related document entitled ”The ESDP in practice, a guide for transnational cooperation: Interreg IIC & pilot actions - Synthesis report on the workshops”. In the occasion of the Forum, the final and ”official” version of the ”Alpine Space” presentation brochure (with a new cover, not linked to the Workshop B of the Vienna Seminar) has been distributed.     II. SECOND CALL PROJECT APPLICATION  BEGINNING OF OCTOBER – DECEMBER 11, 1998   The Common Secretariat submitted the application form to all project co-ordinators of the Alpine Space Programme at the beginning of October (in the form of a limited call).  For the special requirements of the national co-financing the respective national secretariats used the separately developed application forms, which were then submitted to the project co-ordinators together with the transnational application form.   After submission of the application documents the Common Secretariat assisted and advised the project co-ordinators and project partners in preparing the application documents.       MARCH 1999   SECOND PROGRESS REPORT   4 III. SECOND CALL PROJECT REWIEV  DECEMBER 11, 1998 – FEBRUARY 1999   By the deadline December 11, 1998 the following projects/project-parts were submitted: Project Description A2 ”Good practice guide” for the implementation of programmes and projects concerning sustainable spatial and regional planning A3 additional Austrian part Local authorities network ”Alliance in the Alps” C2 new modules, additional parts Regional and spatial planning instruments for Alpine areas, with special reference to the balanced and sustained development of settlements in densely and sparsely populated regions  The first step was the pre-review of the projects by the secretariats. Obvious faults were reported to the project co-ordinators and project partners for correction.  After that the secretariats evaluated resp. reviewed the projects with the summary sheet for transnational projects. For the summarised results see enclosure 1 and financial table (enclosure 2).    IV. SECOND CALL PROJECT APPROVAL   DECEMBER 1998 - END OF FEBRUARY 1999   The results of the project review / evaluation of the Common Secretariat were presented to the German national committee on February 20, 1999 and to the Austrian national committee on February 27, 1999. Both committees approved the projects resp. the recommendations of the Common Secretariat. The German national committee approved one of the German project parts of measure C2 with less ERDF-funds than asked in the application form. So the application form was corrected and the project then approved by written procedure. The Italian national committee approved the projects in it's meeting on December 15, 1998 resp. in a written procedure in February 1999.   On February 26, 1999 the results of the project review / evaluation were presented to the transnational Management Committee. The Management Committee confirmed the results of the project reviews resp. the approvals of the national committees.  In the meeting Mr. Buchholz and Mr. Pössinger declared the willingness of Germany to participate in the project A1 e.g. by organising one of the scheduled seminars together with Switzerland. After having clarified some details Germany will fill in an application form and start a written procedure.   MARCH 1999   SECOND PROGRESS REPORT   5 V. PROGRAMME EVALUATION   In the meeting on February 26, 1999 the transnational Management Committee discussed about the evaluation of the programme. The participants discussed whether to carry through an interim or an ex-post evaluation. Due to the limited budget its not possible to have both.  The results of the discussion were: • The participants of the meeting agreed on an interim evaluation of the programme implementation.  • The evaluation should especially give an answer to the following questions: what is a transnational project, is the current definition satisfactory, how do you have to accompany such projects, what is the real meaning of integrated sustainable regional planning in the Alpine region?  • The participants agreed on the proposed budget of EURO 25.000,-- (A and I EURO 10.000,--, D EURO 5.000,--).  • In the enclosure of the minutes the members of the Management Committee received the original draft terms of reference for the evaluation and a proposal of Austria. The members were asked to comment on these proposals within two weeks. The call for tenders should be done in April. The Management Committee will decide on the selection of the evaluator in May by written procedure or, if necessary, in a meeting under the Italian chairmanship. • Each national committee was asked to nominate possible applicants. • In addition to the evaluation the Common Secretariat should prepare a short report on the experiences in this programme for the European Commission.
