  "text": "In order to respond to business strategies reflecting the diversity of production structures and of projects, the Programme measures aim to provide financial assistance for enterprises in the audiovisual sector submitting either:\n(a) proposals for developing project packages for companies with a larger investment capacity, or\n(b) proposals for developing project packages for companies with a smaller investment capacity, or\n(c) proposals for developing audiovisual works presented project by project.\nThe selection criteria will take account chiefly of the European and international nature of the projects, in particular of their:\nproduction potential;\npotential for transnational exploitation, and the marketing and distribution strategies envisaged;\nquality and originality.\nSupport for development will be granted on terms that require, once a project enters the production phase, the support for the project to be reinvested in the development of new production projects.\nThe contribution will generally be limited to 50 % of project costs but may be raised to 60 % for projects which contribute to the enhancement of European linguistic and cultural diversity.\nIn the report provided for in Article 12, the Commission will evaluate the comparative results of the systems referred to in this Annex with regard to the programme objectives. It will submit to the Committee, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 8(2), appropriate proposals for the implementing rules for the rest of the Programme.",
