The European Commission on 2 August 2005 decided to fund 13 projects selected under the 'Preparatory Action for Security Research' to improve the security of EU citizens and strengthen the European industrial base. It was decided that the eight technology projects and five supporting activities selected would receive EU funding of €15 million. Given the increasing importance of security research, the Commission proposed to substantially increase the yearly budget from €15 million to roughly €250 million a year from 2007. |
