Collection of Monitoring Data Questionnaire: –Comparability with other JPIs - based on JPND but adjusted for different stage in process –Questionnaire will be sent to the GA for comments on content next week – ed to all GA members w/c 24 June for completion – deadline

Working with other JPIs Desire for as much harmonisation as possible Rationale for collaborating – avoids duplication, increases comparability, allows pooling of expertise Meeting 11 June organised by JPI CO-WORK All 10 JPIs interested in potentially collaborating on evaluation

Working with other JPIs Areas where we might collaborate: –Indicators that might be included in evaluation of any JPI –Harmonising core data collection –Commissioning data collection/analysis

Working with other JPIs Impact on JPI MYBL: –Should we delay development of further indicators and plans for evaluation in order to harmonise and work together with other JPIs (timetable to be set out by CO-WORK)? –Delaying WP6 deliverables - CO-WORK project officer happy that a case could be made (CSA is to facilitate JPI – JPI not a slave to the CSA) –May need to harmonise data collection

Working with other JPIs Q’s for GA – are we willing to: –Collaborate with other JPIs on a set of core indicators (monitoring and evaluation)? –Put data collection mechanisms in place now to facilitate a harmonised approach to evaluation? –Collaborate with other JPIs in outsourcing some aspects of evaluation? Letter to go to Chair (from CO-WORK) to set out above questions

Suggested recommendation for GA Proceed with monitoring progress against current indicators Hold initial meeting of evaluation expert group to inform ongoing work and discussions – subsequent meetings to inform collaborative discussions with other JPIs Recommend delaying further indicator development in order to collaborate as far as possible with other JPIs
