On 21 December 2007 the European Commission approved an Operational Programme for the Wallonia region (Hainaut) in Belgium for the period 2007-2013. This Operational Programme comes under the Convergence objective and has a total budget of about 1.1 billion euros. The financing provided by the Community from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) amounts to 449 million euros, representing about 19.9% of total EU investment in Belgium in connection with the cohesion policy 2007-2013. The planned national contribution amounts to about 621 million euros and may be partly met by Community loans granted by the European Investment Bank (EIB) and other lending instruments. |
