Consequently all non Euro partners must convert their expenses from national currency into Euro.

14. The use of National Controllers is a new feature within the European Co-operation. National Controllers have one main task, to certify the partner expenditure. National Controllers are responsible for OLAF reporting, in case of any irregularities, however some uncertainty about this since OLAF reporting may have to be done on project level. Only costs certified by the National Controllers can be eligible for ERDF or ERDF equivalent funding National Controllers are appointed by the different Member States Different Systems in different countries Current list of National Controllers only indicates the responsible organisations in the different countries.

Maximum number requests two per year. Documents from Lead Partner to the Secretariat

36.

All changes are to be listed in the project activity report and should confirm the picture that the changes are of a minor degree when being described in its full context. Major changes are: A change with a major impact on the projects implementation or more than 40 000 Euro increase in one project budgetline A change with a major impact normally requires a formal request in a specific template and the Secretariat will provide information on how to make that request.
