USF has also appreciated to receive some of the information useful to understand the document on the JRC Strategy which has not been included in the list of documents sent to us before the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>USF is concerned that the principal document describing the proposed JRC new strategy has been exclusively published on Connected, an internal JRC platform,<\/p>\n<p>In absence of further information from your side, USF assumes that this document published on Connected is the base for the COCORE discussion.<\/p>\n<p>USF wants to share with you some general considerations on such document which seems to be based on three main references: Euratom Treaty, Ex- post Evaluation of the direct actions of the JRC under the 7th framework programmes and the 2014 Change of the Commission. That is why USF sent a letter to COCORE about this.<\/p>\n<p>USF observes that the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.consilium.europa.eu\/en\/documents-publications\/publications\/euratom-treaty\/\">Euratom Treaty<\/a>\u00a0has not been recently revised, the Ex-post Evaluation of the direct actions of the JRC document has been considered by all a very positive judgment of the JRC\u2019s contribution to the FP7 programmes, therefore, the proposal of a new JRC Strategy, we deduct, has to be linked just to the change of the Commission\u2019s portfolio (from the Research&amp;Innovation to Education, Culture, Youth and Sport) and Commission\u2019s priorities.<\/p>\n<p>USF is wondering about the new objectives that DG-JRC wishes to reach with the proposed document on JRC strategy.<\/p>\n<p>We noted that the objectives are not clearly listed in the document as well as the field of knowledge to be managed by the JRC in the future.<\/p>\n<p>However, deep changes in the DG structure are very clearly suggested. Those changes will reduce\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bruxelles.unionsyndicale.eu\/en\/?s=jrc&amp;lang=en\">JRC<\/a>\u00a0involvement in the frontiers of science and its capacity to perform in house experimental science, but puts a lot of emphasis on knowledge management.<\/p>\n<p>The major changes USF noted are related to the three main pillars :<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Staff ratio (70% F \u2013 30% T instead of 60% F \u2013 40% T, ref. NPPR 1997)<br \/>\n\u2013 Management and usage of the infrastructures<br \/>\n\u2013 JRC internal scientific management and JRC job orientation.<\/p>\n<p>Which, in our view, should be part of a much more broader negotiation phase at the Commission level after the approval of a new Strategy for DG-JRC.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the unclearness of the mandate which should support the nature of these deep changes and the lack of well-structured and comprehensive document, USF cannot share and support your proposal of a new JRC Strategy and considers untimely its presentation to the Board of Governors of the 11th of March 2016.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bernd LOESCHER<\/strong><br \/>\nPresident<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_large\"><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium with_line width_50 thick_3 style_solid color_primary align_center\"><div class=\"w-separator-h\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-2 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_auto\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover in this page, the USF letter of the 8.03.2016 to the COCORE  concerning the most recent JRC strategy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7008,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[],"dossier-special":[],"class_list":["post-7059","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
