On 29 November 2007 the European Commission approved the operational programme for cross-border cooperation 'Italy – France (Alps – ALCOTRA)' to receive Community assistance from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) under the European Territorial Cooperation objective in Italy and France. The total cost of the programme is approximately 200 million euros. The maximum contribution from the ERDF to the operational programme is 150 million euros, which represents around 1.7% of EU contributions under the European Territorial Cooperation objective. The 'Italy - France (Alps - ALCOTRA)' programme is the fourth cooperation programme along the land border between Italy and France. It encompasses three Italian regions (Val d’Aoste, Piemonte and Liguria), two French regions (Rhône-Alpes and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur) and the Principality of Monaco. Monaco will take part in the programme but will not receive any of the ERDF funding available under Article 21(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1080/2006 for non-EU countries. |
