ANNEX
COUNCIL STATEMENT
The Council supports the political objectives of the Chips Act and wishes to maintain the financial
level of ambition of the proposal. At the same time, the Council reiterates its commitment to the
Joint Declaration by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on the re-use of
decommitted funds in relation to the research programme 1 as regards the limit of EUR 0.5 billion in
the period 2021-2027 for making available again these decommitted funds to the benefit of the
research programme.
To maintain the overall foreseen budget of EUR 3.3 billion, the Commission is invited to support
the Council in exploring alternative solutions that could be discussed in the course of the
forthcoming trilogue negotiations with the European Parliament, while respecting the prerogatives
of the Budget Authority. The Council underlines that the Horizon Europe contribution to the Chips
Act budget should be maintained at EUR 1.65 billion.
The Council also recalls the Joint Statement by the European Parliament, the Council and the
Commission on the financing of the European Chips Act and the Secure Space Connectivity
Programme approved on 23 November 2022 2 .
