4. Project changes

During the project lifecycle some changes might be

necessary

o Which changes are major changes (with or without previous approval of the MA/MC) and which are minor changes?

o What is administrative change?

oCan I change the spending forecast?

Project changes can be requested only twice in the project duration, therefore a coordinated action of the partnership is crucial.

The first change request is foreseen at the end of 2013, and the second 6 months before project end (December 2014).

All project changes requiring an approval of the programme bodies can be implemented only after approval has been given.
