Die Welt reports that an EU financed ski-slope on the Danish island of Bornholm –which due to a lack of snowfall is only operational for several days a year – is to receive a further €33,000 of EU funds for the purpose of expanding its ski lifts. The article notes that the ski-slope, highlighted in Open Europe’s 2008 “100 Examples of EU Fraud and Waste”, is not an isolated example, and cites other cases from Open Europe research.
