- Cohesion policy – the driving force in implementing the EU agenda for cities
Written by an AI from the text voted on. The outcome and the numbers come from Parliament’s official record. The report concerns cohesion policy as the main framework for integrated urban development and welcomes the Commission's EU agenda for cities, which aims to strengthen the urban dimension of EU policies. Parliament adopted the text as its official position, so it now states Parliament's view that cities should be recognised as genuine actors in EU policy-making, not only as implementers. The report calls for the partnership principle and multilevel governance to be applied more concretely, with structured and permanent involvement of cities in EU decision-making, including in future national and regional partnership plans. It also asks for simpler procedures and welcomes the idea of an EU platform for cities that should evolve into a one-stop shop for urban authorities, with particular focus on small and medium-sized cities, island cities and rural areas.
