Press release
The EGTC (European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation) is an EU legal tool
existing since 2006 for increasing efficiency of cross-border institutional
cooperation. EGTC is an independent legal entity having own budget and staff,
and it may pursue entrepreneurial activities. Hungary and Slovakia were among
the forerunners transposing the 1082/2006/EC Regulation as the Community
legal basis into their national legal order.
Until the end of 2014 some 50 EGTCs were registered in the EU, one-quarter (!) of
which were established at the Hungarian-Slovakian border. The research of the
Civitas Europica Centralis Foundation in Budapest and the J. Selye University in
Komrno financed by the International Visegrad Fund points out the 13 EGTCs at
the Hungarian-Slovakian border have reached different level of development
(maturity) in the last 5-8 years.
There are EGTCs (Pons Danubii, Arrabona, Ister-Granum) that are already
significant actors of developments aiming at the revitalization of border regions.
Other (Abaj-Abajban, Bodrogkzi, Novohrad-Ngrd, Saj-Rima) cooperation
are mainly restricted to hunting CBC grants yet. The long-term viability of
county-level EGTCs (Rba-Duna-Vg, Via Carpatia) mainly depends on the
decision on the management of the small project fund of the Hungary-Slovakia
CBC Programme 2014-2020. In addition, there are EGTCs (Karszt-Bdva, UngTisza-Tr-Saj, Svinka, Torysa) which are already/yet not functioning, they do not
fulfil the legal requirements.
