ERDF Programme Monitoring Committee (PMC)

Government Office for the North East chairs the Programme Monitoring Committee (PMC) for the ERDF Competitiveness Programme 2007-13.

The PMC exists to engage key partners in the region and oversee the strategic delivery of the programme. It performs the tasks and responsibilities laid down by the European Commission to satisfy itself of the quality and effectiveness of the programme’s implementation.

The PMC is responsible for the programme’s strategic direction and formal monitoring, ensuring that targets are met and redirecting work as and when required. The PMC is not an executive body and therefore does not award grants.

Membership of the PMC is governed by EU Commission regulations and is made up by representation from sectors across the region. PMC members include:

Government Office for the North East
Voluntary Organisations’ Network North East (VONNE)
Association of Colleges
Unis4NE
Trades Union Congress
Northern Business Forum
Local authorities
Commission for Equality and Human Rights
Natural England
Department for Communities & Local Government
The European Commission
One NorthEast

The PMC has agreed that One NorthEast will establish a Programme Executive Group (PEG) to take forward the day to day management of the new programme.
