18: Policy Links
Facilitate public policy links across levels and between sectors Other Information:
One of the tasks which EU institutions could usefully perform is to use ICT tools to help facilitate public policy links between
local, regional, national and European levels in both directions, as well as links at a given level across Member States,
and also links to and between different sectors across Europe, There could be a strong EU role to monitor the buzz at different
levels as well as at the same level in different countries, and link them together through a service to aggregate, compare,
contrast, match and disaggregate as appropriate. Identify local issues and debates which may be local but which are similar
or could be useful elsewhere, as well as those which have European level relevance. Provide tools and mechanisms for hooking
these issues and debates together including semantic support in terms of language, culture, legal systems, etc. Learning and
cooperation between levels and across sectors should be promoted. Provide frameworks of incentives and support where appropriate.
