No, the budget for 2012 is 3809k€ and 3794k€ for 2013, a little reduction for the program aimed at protecting national and ethnic minorities in Europe but nothing dramatic. The program sets few goals

1. The implementation of the FCNM by the 39 parties is supervised.
2. The implementation of the ECRML by the 25 parties is monitored and extended to other member states.
3. Policies and good practices on transversal issues on national minorities, including regional or minority languages, are examined by the monitoring mechanisms of both conventions.
