European Commission Work Programme 2006

Item 5 is our regular agenda item that enables us to track the areas of the European Commission's work programme that the committee has previously expressed an interest in.

Updated paper EU/S2/06/4/5 provides information on the proposed European institute of technology, on which there has been some progress. Members will recall that, at the last meeting, the minister also identified this issue in the key dossier that was presented to us. Do members have any comments to make on the paper?

I am happy to note it. It seems like good progress is being made.

Are members happy to agree the recommendation in the paper and for the item to be included in the committee's general work programme at the next meeting?

Members indicated agreement.
