New Mechanism For Independent Scientific Advice - and the JRC?
Today Commissioner Moedas announced in a Press Conference about the new mechanism for independent scientific advice in the European Commission.
In an information note addressed to the College of Commissioners - written in agreement with the President and the first Vice-President - he states that ... the new scientific advice mechanism will receive operational support from DG Research and Innovation as the lead service, who will ensure close collaboration with other Commission services, including the Secretariat General, the European Political Strategy Centre, the Joint Research Centre, and those services responsible for existing specialist scientific advisory bodies.
On the same topic, see also the inputs given by Anne Glover and our Director General on Future Directions for Scientific Advice in Europe and the analysis given by ScienceInsider.
R&D has been following the debate that has been going on inside the Commission since the abolition of the Chief Scientific Adviser role last year (see our previous letters sent to his attention).
We are working on our position and welcome any comments you may have on this very important and sensitive topic.
