Parliament's amended version of the proposed regulation incentivises defence-related investments in the EU budget to implement the ReArm Europe Plan, amending several EU funding regulations. It lays down rules to boost defence investment through EU programmes, including Digital Europe, Horizon Europe, the European Defence Fund, the Connecting Europe Facility, the European Defence Industry Reinforcement through common Procurement Act and the Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform.
Key points
- Amends Regulations (EU) 2021/694, 2021/695, 2021/697, 2021/1153 and 2024/795 to incentivise defence-related investments in the EU budget.
- Aims to implement the ReArm Europe Plan by enabling defence-related investments under the EU budget.
- Extends the scope of existing EU funding programmes to cover defence-related investments.
- Sets conditions for defence-related investments to be eligible for EU funding.
- Requires member states and the Commission to ensure coherence and complementarity between defence investments and other EU policies.
- Provides for monitoring and reporting on the implementation of defence-related investments.
Who is affected
- EU member states and the European Commission, which must apply the amended rules for defence-related investments.
- Beneficiaries of EU funding programmes, including defence industry companies and research organisations.
Legal basis. Articles 114, 164, 172, 173, 175(3), 176, 177, 178, 182, 183, 188 and 192(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
