    The have cut it in a draft. Read to the end

    The budget decision is not yet official – so there is still a chance to allocate funds for NGI. It is therefore very important to contact Ursula von der Leyen (President EU Commission), DG Connect, to ask them to make the funds available.

    It’s not over yet!
