Due to EC requirements, the recording, reporting and evidencing rules of the RDPE programme may be over and above those required to evidence expenditure or outputs on Agency Single Pot projects. Projects will need to bear this in mind when being developed. This includes document retention policies particularly where it supports claimed project expenditure and adherence to EC publicity, procurement and State Aid regulations.

To read more on the policies, select the Commission Requirements section.
