14. General aspects of IDABC to value
• Legal basis
• Objetives + detailed list of work areas
• Management Committee
• Funding
• Pillars: PCIs (with legal basis) and HMs
• Long living services and infrastructures
• Capital:
• IDABC Community
• Common understanding of paneropean needs
• Services + Infrastructures
• Know-how + studies and reports
• Lessons learnt: things that worked and things that did not work.
• IDABC: recognized mark.
• Achievements thanks to action maintained along the time.

15. A possible future follow-on programme
Some thoughts about PCIs
• keep close contact with the sectors.
• A more selective support for sectors that add more value to the Pan-
European dimension.
• Promotion of sectoral services that support administrative cooperation and
capillarity in the participation of various levels of administration.
• Services that support multilateral or bilateral agreements.
• Facilitate the use of services delivered by MS that may be used by
other over common infrastructures like sTESTA.
• Sectors might be more interested in receiving advice and support and
not only funding.
• Examples with ‘community’ and ‘non-community’ projects.
• (For both PCI and HM): adequate funding according to scope,
objectives, target areas, EU dimension; and time enough for results.

16. A possible future follow-on programme
Some thoughts about Horizontal Measures
• Consolidate a first generation of basic infrastructures.
• Develop a second generation of services on top of basic infrastructures
that facilitate the deployment of multilateral services.
• Common infrastructures available to multilateral agreements.
• Common Infrastructures and services:
• Linked to the needs of the sectors.
• Facilitators of the Pan-European dimension.
• Capable of satisfying the needs of emerging services.
• Specific objectives and mandates in a new legal basis?
• Changing policies and priorities: Observe the needs of Pan-European
services to integrate needs of actors and elements EU policy.
• Promotion, diffusion and support of services and measures.
• Understanding, adoption and use by the sectors.
• Role of driving force in development of common infr.& serv. across EU.
