WRITTEN QUESTION No. 1253/98 by Odile LEPERRE-VERRIER to the Commission. European youth action programme
Official Journal C 386 , 11/12/1998 P. 0100
WRITTEN QUESTION E-1253/98 by Odile Leperre-Verrier (ARE) to the Commission (29 April 1998) Subject: European youth action programme What progress has been made in the launch of a Euro-Mediterranean youth action programme apparently envisaged during one of the meetings of Euro-Mediterranean countries? What guidelines have been established and within what time frame might the measures be implemented? Answer given by Mr Marín on behalf of the Commission (25 May 1998) The Barcelona Declaration includes youth as a priority field of action between the EU and the twelve Mediterranean partners. The Work Programme states that "a Euro-Mediterranean youth exchange programme should be established based on experience acquired in Europe and taking account of the partners& apos; needs". The conclusions of the second Euro-Mediterranean conference of foreign ministers reiterate this aim, stating that "specific initiatives for youth will be put forward shortly". The Commission attaches particular importance to this sector and has established the necessary contacts for these initiatives, which it is working to set up in 1998.
