Duration, Funding and Management of TRESMED 3
TRESMED 3 is financed by the Commission of the European Union.
Its expected duration is thirty months: from 1 January 2008 until 30 June 2010.
The Economic and Social Council of Spain will be responsible for organization and technical, administrative and financial management of the project.
The ESC of Spain was created by act 21/1991, of 17 June, in order to comply with the constitutional function to reinforce the participation of the economic and social agents in economic and social life.
It is a consultative body of the government on socio-economic and employment matters. It has its own legal personality, full capacity and organic and functional autonomy to perform its role. It issues reports- which may be mandatory or advisory, on issues which the government submits to it for consultation, and acts on its own initiative in undertaking studies and issuing reports on questions within its area of competence.
It is composed of sixty-one councillors nominated by the most representative trades union and business organizations, professional organizations active in the agricultural sector, fisheries producers’ organizations, the consumers’ and users’ council, cooperative associations, employment societies representing the social economy sector, and six experts in the socio-economic and employment field.
The Spanish ESC managed TRESMED and TRESMED 2.
