Press Release: No European Heritage Label without the regions and cities, stresses the CoR

Europe is planning to better promote its heritage through a new label. The Committee of the Regions' message is clear: since the financial management of these sites falls mainly to the local and regional authorities, it is incomprehensible that the current Commission proposals foresee no role for them in this process. Mireille Lacombe (FR/PES), Member of Puy-de-Dôme General Council and rapporteur on the label, stressed this point at the Committee's plenary session in Brussels on 10 June 2010.
