MIL-OSI Europe: Written question – Just Transition Fund – E-001480/2025

Question for written answer  E-001480/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Marcin Sypniewski (ESN)

In light of the start of work on the MFF for the next programming period, I would like to inquire about the fate of the Just Transition Fund. Decarbonisation affects many regions in Europe, including Poland, and especially Silesia.

In this connection:

• 1.At the current stage of work, is the continued existence of the Just Transition Fund in the new MFF being questioned, and will it retain its current character, i.e. as a separate fund under cohesion policy?
• 2.At the current stage of work, is the Fund intended as a measure exclusively for regions with a coal-based economy, or is an expansion of its scope envisaged?
• 3.Please present the current assumptions for the Fund and a timetable for further work.
