Fiche récapitulative
The project will support a number of investment schemes eligible to the Structural Funds and Cohesion Fund grants in the programming period 2007-13. These will be included in the relevant Operational Programmes in the areas of industry, services, transport, environment, local basic infrastructure, research and development, information society, measures of rural development and others.
The project aims at both facilitating and accelerating the implementation of investment schemes responding to EU policy priorities for the further development of the economy and its faster integration into the Union’s. Through the support of its technical services, as well as that from Jaspers, Jeremie and Jessica, the EIB group will also give a contribution to the overall programme implementation of the Bulgarian NSRF and Rural Development.
These will be verified according to current environmental impact legislation in the Republic of Bulgaria in line with relevant EU legislation (namely Directive 85/337/EEC as amended by Directive 97/11/EC and 2003/35/EC).
EU Directives for procurement have been transposed into national Bulgarian legislation. Tenders will be organized in compliance with EU requirements, which is also a precondition for EU grant support. Tender notices will be published, as appropriate, in the EU Official Journal. Application of EU procedures by the Bulgarian authorities for the tender of services, supplies and civil works will be reviewed by the Bank’s services during appraisal.
