MEPs are insisting on shifting some of the spending towards Parliament's own priorities, including research on renewable energy and energy efficiency as well as the possibility of funding research on children's health, respiratory diseases (including those induced by allergies), plus research into neglected diseases.
EP politiskās grupas un Padome pirms otrā lasījuma arī vienojās, ka noteikumi par uzņēmumu, pētniecības institūtu un universitāšu dalību Pamatprogrammā jāpadara skaidrāki un vieglāk piemērojami.
