The Netherlands took presidency over the Council of the EU until July 2016, followed by Slovakia and Malta. This 18month timetable puts great pressure on the Dutch to deal with the refugee crisis. For half a year, the country will have to tackle the various challenges. In a programme drafted with Slovakia and Malta, which will take the next two presidencies from July 2016, the Netherlands focused on a number of priorities in the area of Research and Innovation. An innovative Union focused on growth and jobs is one of the three starting poins for the 2016 Dutch Presidency. Innovation will have to top the EU agenda if the Union wishes to remain an economic powerhouse, according to the government.
