French term

programme cadre

I'm revising the translation of a speech, and it's pretty bad. Here is the sentence in question:
" Ainsi, la Commission a-t-elle proposé de doubler, tout simplement, les moyens communautaires alloués à la Recherche pour le prochain programme cadre. "

The translator has "Framework Programme" for "programme cadre", but it seems a little too literal to be true. Also, I wonder about the capitalisation....

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Yes. I eventually checked this myself. I was short of time due to the appalling quality overall of the translation, and didn't think until later to add "site:eu.int" to my Google searches to get rid of the irrelevant stuff."
