Competence Centre of the E&S-Partners: Objectives and Duties Preparation of documents and papers of the Local Committee of the Structural Funds for the E&S-Partners Expert advise relating to monitoring and evaluation Acitivities for the improvement of background knowledge and providing of information about the structural funds and the cross sectional objectives Development and discussion of strategies concerning equal opportunities, sustainability, growth, employment, education and integration Consulting service for the partners and associated organisations for the Develepoment, Preparation and Realisation of ESF-Projects

Competence Centre of the E&S-Partners: Selected Activities 1.Information: Discussion fora with experts and representatives of the functional and governmental administration: e.g. Poverty and Exclusion, Sustainability, De- Minimis Rules, Civil Labour Market Programme. Workshops and education events for Partner-Organisations about problems, policies and strategies as well as aid programmes and directives in Saxony- Anhalt. 2. Support and Legwork: Summaries of documents and reports: e.g. annual reports for ERDF and ESF, monitoring tables of the EU-Managing Authority. Preparation of petitions and statements for E&S-Partners. Assistance with preparation and application of E&S-Partner-Projects. 3. Public Relations for E&S-Partners: Quarterly newsletters, Homepage.

Competence Centre of the E&S-Partners: Problems, Criticism and Prospects 1.Diversity of Interests among the E&C-Partners: Varying and conflicting interests (e.g. Economy vs. Employees vs. Environment). Partial interests and objectives sometimes insufficiently respected and handled. Especially emphasising of the cross sectional objectives (equality, sustainability) often provokes to opposition. 2. Imperative of neutrality: CC is not allowed to promote interests of individual partners. But: consulting and expert advise are not always neutral and uninterested. → neutrality of the CC is not always guaranteed. 3. Networking and co-operation still improveable: Co-operation is rather carried out sporadically and often depends on topics. Some E&C-Partners show little engagement and interest in particular issues and discussions. Arrangements are not always reliable.
