Official Gazette of the Basque Country, ERDF

Administrations publish their rules; files document their practice. This annex provides the rule.

The document

  • BOPV No. 247, of 28 December 2022: Order of the Department of Economic Development, Sustainability and Environment of the Basque Government concerning the aid regime within the ERDF framework.
  • Content: call, requirements, obligations of beneficiaries and of the Administration — the formal standard of the Basque aid circuit, published with all guarantees.

The comparison it enables

  • The Order publishes requirements of standing and representation of the applicants; the case's file documents an application processed without powers despite the express requirement (A.4).
  • The Order publishes the regime of justification and verification; the file documents a declaration of non-compliance that does not confront its own verifications and payments (A.5, A.6).
  • The rule and the practice come from the same administrative apparatus, a decade apart.

What the piece serves for

Against the argument that the case's demands are constructions of a party, this gazette responds with the least suspect source possible: the Administration itself, in its official journal, describing how its aid must be processed. The standard is not set by the claimant.

How to verify it

The BOPV is public and this issue is identified. Read the requirements of the Order and apply them, one by one, to this portal's GAUZATU file.

The factThe standard for processing aid that the case's file breaches is not formulated by the claimant: it is published by the Basque Administration itself in its official gazette.
The questionWhat explains that the case's file did not meet even the requirements its own Administration publishes as minimums?
