Communication on sport (2011)

The Communication on “Developing the European Dimension in Sport” is the first policy document of the European Commission on sport in the framework of the new Treaty. It contains proposals developed in line with the EU’s new responsibilities, building on the experience gained in implementing the 2007 White Paper on Sport and the ongoing Preparatory Actions – financial incentive measures – in the field of sport. The Communication presents the Commission’s proposals for EU-level cooperation in sport for the coming years and puts forward measures to enhance the societal, economic and organisational dimensions of sport.
