you for the work for the Polish regions in the European Union and for your

Wielkopolska Brussels Office in Brussels together with the Assembly of
European Regions (AER) organized a Breakfast Briefing on the Common Strategic
Framework (CSF). The EU region’s standpoint on this document is being prepared

Marek Wózniak: "Common Strategic Framework must take into
account the regional specificities across the European Union"Marek Wózniak (PL/EPP), Marshal of the Wielkopolska region and Committee of the Regions (CoR) rapporteur of the draft opinion on the Common Strategic Framework (CSF), attended the European Parliament Committee on Regional Development (REGI) to share the CoR point of view on this issue.
Marek Wózniak said that, "The CoR fully supports the recommendation of the European Parliament (EP) and Council that the CSF should be adopted as an annex to the Common Provisions Regulation (CPR) rather than as a delegated act". He continued saying that this was because, "this is the only way for the CoR to be formally involved in the legislative work, in line with article 177 of the Treaty".
