If EU really has intensions to catch US (so called Lisbon strategy), the funding strategy must be changed radically.

Research proposals should be evaluated on the merit of proposed idea and researchers experience. After rigorous evaluation it is completely unnecessary to plan small details such as procurement planning, equipment to be purchased, and other administrative requirements on purchases making implementation very complex. Such planning usually fails and is a heavy burden on researcher. Every simplification will make research more productive.

On behalf of my colleagues I ask the European Council of Ministers and the Parliament to urgently simplify the financial and administrative provisions related to the Framework Programme.

When evaluating research we ought to understand that it is very important and critical to start
research and finish it ASAP. Such an requirement of global competition and it is a pity taht EU with
larege resuurces suffer from red tape (bureaucracy ) and did not get results. Risk is rateher typical
situtaion if we compare situation ir EU with US resaerach support.

Too many papers, but shortage of good suoorted ideas

17 Feb 15:50   Lithuania   Klaipėda University  Angelija Bučienė
The trust has to be mutual

Bureaucracy is a good think, but it shold not be a backpedal...

18 Mar 08:23   Lithuania   Nature Research Center  Jonas Šečkus
Seems like the administrative tools are of higher importance as scientific idea

31 Mar 12:49   Lithuania   University of Šiauliai  Virginija Šidlauskienė
STOP Bureaucracy in EU!

17 Feb 16:30   Lithuania   Vilnius University  Izolda Pasakinskiene
I had participated in GRASP project (FW 5).
Now I am in the process of writting up ESF project (Global Grants).

Its very demanding for time to write up the project.
