Sound Financial
Management: a principle overarching the implementation of this Agreement, namely

economy, effectiveness and efficiency (including all aspects of internal
control). The principle of economy requires that resources used in the pursuit
of the implementation of the Action shall be made available in due time, in
appropriate quantity and quality and at the best price. The principle of
effectiveness concerns the attainment of the specific objectives and the
achievement of the intended results. The principle of efficiency concems the
best relationship between resources employed and results achieved.

Article 2: General obligations

Implementation of the Action

2.1

The Organisation is responsible for the implementation of the Action described in Annex I,
regardless of whether the activities are performed by the Organisation itself, a Contractor or a
Grant Beneficiary. Both Parties will endeavour to strengthen their mutual contacts with a
view to foster the exchange of information throughout the implementation of the Action. To
this end, the Organisation and the Contracting Authority shall participate in coordination
meetings and other jointly organised common activities, and the Organisation shall invite the
European Commission to join any donor committee which may be set up in relation to the
Action.

Responsibility

2.2

2,3

The Organisation shall be responsible for the performance of the obligations under this
Agreement with a due degree of professional care and diligence, which means that it shall
apply the same level of duty and care which it applies in managing its own funds. The
Organisation shall respect the principles of Sound Financial Management, transparency, non-
discrimination and visibility of the European Union in the implementation of the Action.

The Organisation shall have full financial responsibility towards the Contracting Authority
for all funds, including those unduly paid to or incorrectly used by Contractors or Grant
Beneficiaries. The Organisation shall take measures to prevent, detect and correct
irregularities and fraud when implementing the Action. To this end, the Organisation shall
carry out, in accordance with the principle of proportionality and its positively assessed
Regulations and Rules, ex-ante and/or ex-post controls including, where appropriate, on-the-
spot checks on representative and/or risk-based samples of transactions, to ensure that the
Action financed by the EU Contribution is effectively carried out and implemented correctly.
The Organisation shall inform the European Commission and the Contracting Authority of
irregularities and fraud detected in the management of the EU Contribution and the measures
taken. Where funds have been unduly paid to or incorrectly used by Contractors or Grant
Beneficiaries, the Organisation shall take all applicable measures in accordance with its own
Regulations and Rules to recover those funds, including, where appropriate, by bringing legal
proceedings and by endeavouring to assign claims against its Contractors or Grant
Beneficiaries to the Contracting Authority or the European Commission. Where the
Organisation has exhausted such measures and the non-recovery is not the result of error or
negligence on the part of the Organisation, the Contracting Authority will consider the
amounts that could not be recovered from Contractors and/or Grant Beneficiaries as elıgible
costs.

Other obligations

2.4

The Organisation undertakes to ensure that the obligations stated in this Agreement under
Articles 2.6, 5-Conflict of interests, 7-Data protection, 8-Communication and Visibility, 16-
Accounts and archiving and Article 17-Access and financial checks apply, where applicable,
to all Contractors and Grant Beneficiaries.
