A Government amendment to allow EU delegated-cooperation

A Government amendment allowing the Italian cooperation offices on the field to receive financial transfers from the European Commission and EU member States was tabled for discussion in the lower house of Parliament. If approved, the Italian cooperation would be able to fully take part into various EU pilot experiences on delegated cooperation, otherwise forbidden by law. this amendment, Italy could propose itself as EU leading donor in different countries and sectors, as part of the full implementation of the EU Division of Labour proposal. The government-sponsored amendment is a clear evidence that after Accra the implementation of the EU aid effectiveness agenda is fully supported by the Government.
