INTERPROCEDURE
Cooperating for a better management of the eligibility criteria in INTERREG programmes
Lead Partner: Navarre Regional Government
No of Project Partners (including Lead Partner): Three
Participating countries: Spain, Italy
ERDF allocated (EUR): 141 253.75
Project Duration: 01.01.05 - 31.03.06
Questions to be analysed by the Project
- The obstacles with the EU Regulations on financing expenses when linking European and national regulations.
- When the regulation is applied to actions articulated by cooperation between entities and/or regions from different States, as is the case in the INTERREG III Initiative, the problems are accentuated.
- Consequently, the management bodies of the programmes in a particular State find it difficult to control the expenses incurred by beneficiaries from other States, as the situation becomes extremely complex and difficult to tackle. Therefore, management and control mechanisms have to be articulated by complicated information flows which slow down the certification and payment processes.
Objectives
-
Identify the problems which project managers and beneficiaries from programmes in different INTERREG strands have to deal with currently.
-
Analyse the problems by contrasting them both at the level of the programmes in the project partnership and at transnational level. In this way, it will be possible to distinguish between those cases which require regional handling and those which should be approached from a European perspective.
-
Find and disseminate solutions to the problems perceived, combining the identification of best practice and the detection of new ideas, which can contribute to the project’s general objective.
Expected outputs
- Participation of at least 30 key disseminators to carry out the diagnosis and solution identification processes.
- Publication of a final document which will include the conclusions and recommendations achieved by the project.
- Organisation of four seminars which will be the main vehicle for disseminating the results achieved. At these seminars, the document on the conclusions of the project will be presented as a tool to facilitate effective impacts through the Member States.
