Introduction

We are interested in your views on the D2N2 EU programme for 2014-20, as well as your experience of the last EU programme (if you were involved) and the lessons we can learn to ensure the success of the 2014-2020 programme.

We have developed a questionnaire to seek your views on:

1. The potential investment themes of the programme;
2. The balance of funding by theme, match funding and financial instruments;
3. How the programme should be managed in D2N2;
4. Approaches to monitoring, evaluation and review; and
5. Other comments.

We recognise that not all sections of the questionnaire will be relevant to you – please just complete those that you can. If you have had very little involvement in the funds and just want to make a short submission just go to section five (other comments) of the form. Also please feel free to pass the survey on to other interested parties, and advertise it as appropriate.

In order to ensure that your comments are reflected in the first draft of the programme, we would be grateful if you could complete the questionnaire by Friday 23rd August. If you complete the survey after this date though, we can still incorporate your views.
