Summary sheet
The project concerns the Land Brandenburg’s expenditure for public sector research for the period 2005-2008.
The project is designed to assist the Federal State of Brandenburg in maintaining, and further strengthening, its position as a top tier location for public sector research in Germany.
The Federal Republic of Germany and the Federal States are subject to applicable EU Law and have adopted environmental legislation in line with standards mandated by relevant EU Directives. The R&D activities to be considered will not materially change current German R&D practice, and will be carried out within existing university infrastructures and research facilities managed by the German science foundations. Project promoters will have to consider the environmental impact of proposed R&D investments in the context of prevailing planning and environmental regulations. The environmental consequences of the project should, therefore, be acceptable. The R&D itself may result in the production of goods and services with improved environmental characteristics.
German public procurement law complies fully with Directive 2004/18/EC and its predecessors, Directives 92/50/EEC, 93/36/EEC and 93/37/EEC. Hence any required tenders will be organised in compliance with these procurement directives.
