Editor's Notes
The six countries concerned are France, UK, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Denmark Of the 450,000 jobs mentioned, around 200,000 were created in France, more than 100,000 in the UK, 75,000 in the Netherlands, almost 40,000 in Spain, around 25,000 in Sweden, and the rest (around 5,000) in Denmark The estimates for the Convergence regions are derived from the Hermin modal. This argues that around 2,0 million jobs will be created thanks to cohesion policy between 2000 and 2013. Of these, 1.4 million are created during the 2007-2013 period. These jobs are created essentially (but not only) in the new Member States: almost 400,000 in Poland, 330,000 in the Czech Republic, almost 270,000 in Romania and around 150,000 in both Hungary and Spain.
