EU: Northern Dimension

Question
Whether they support the extension of the Northern Dimension Action Plan beyond 2006.
Answer

The European Union has not yet decided how, and in what form, the Northern Dimension should be extended when the current action plan expires in 2006. Extension of the action plan is one of the options for consideration. The UK supports the Northern Dimension. During our presidency of the EU we will work with partners to agree on a way forward that ensures the goals of the Northern Dimension are met in an effective and efficient way.
