Financial support
Article 7
The Commission shall endeavour to facilitate access to existing Union funds, in accordance with the legal provisions governing those funds, in order to support the measures to be taken with a view to complying with the objectives of this Directive.
Those Union funds include present and future available funding under, inter alia:
1. the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation;
2. the European Structural and Investment Funds, including relevant funding under the common agricultural policy;
3. instruments for the funding of environment and climate action such as the LIFE programme.
The Commission shall evaluate the possibility of creating a one-stop shop, where any interested party can easily check the availability of Union funds, and the related access procedures, for projects which address air pollution concerns.
