Status

The term provision is used to describe a definable element in a piece of legislation that has legislative effect – such as a Part, Chapter or section.

Sometimes the text of a provision is changed, but the change(s) only apply to a particular geographical area. In some limited cases where this happens, the editorial team create a version for each different geographical area. Multiple versions are only created in this way where the change in question is a substitution so that there are different versions of the text for the different extents. Insertions and repeals of text do not give rise to such multiple versions.

Article 29W+S+N.I.Cross-checks

1.Where appropriate, the administrative checks shall include cross-checks:

(a)

on declared payment entitlements and on declared agricultural parcels, respectively, in order to avoid multiple granting of the same aid or support in respect of the same calendar or claim year and to prevent any undue accumulation of aid granted under area-related aid schemes listed in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 [F1and Annex VI to Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009(1),] and area-related support measures as defined in point (21) of the second subparagraph of Article 2 of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 640/2014;

(b)

[F2on the payment entitlements to verify their existence and the eligibility for aid;]

(c)

between the agricultural parcels as declared in the single application and/or payment claim and the information as contained in the identification system for agricultural parcels per reference parcel in accordance with Article 5(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 640/2014 to verify the eligibility for [F3direct payment scheme and/or] rural development measure of the areas as such;

(d)

[F4between the payment entitlements and the area determined in order to verify that the entitlements are accompanied by at least an equal number of eligible hectares as defined in Article 32(2) to [F5(6)][F5(4)] of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013;]

(e)

by means of the system for the identification and registration of animals, to verify eligibility for the [F6aid and/or] support and to avoid undue multiple granting of the same [F6aid and/or] support in respect of the same calendar or claim year;

(f)

F7. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(g)

F7. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

For the purposes of point (c) of the first subparagraph, where the integrated system provides for geo-spatial aid application forms, the cross-checks shall be carried out as spatial intersection of the digitised area declared with the identification system of agricultural parcels. In addition, cross-checks shall be carried out to prevent double claiming of the same area.

[F8Data from applications or concerning applicants found not to be admissible or not eligible for payment as referred to in Article 34(1) shall be used for the purposes of points (a), (c) and (e) of the first subparagraph of this paragraph.]

2.Indications of non-compliance resulting from cross-checks shall be followed-up by any other appropriate administrative procedure, and where necessary, by an on-the-spot check.

3.Where a reference parcel is subject to [F9an][F9a][F10aid application and/or] payment claim by two or more beneficiaries [F11under the same aid scheme or] under the same support measure and where the agricultural parcels declared are spatially overlapping or where the overall area declared exceeds the maximum eligible area determined in accordance with points (a) and (b) of Article 5(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 640/2014, and the difference falls within the measurement tolerance defined in accordance with Article 38 of this Regulation in respect of that reference parcel, [F12a relevant authority] may provide for a proportional reduction of the areas concerned, unless a beneficiary demonstrates that any of the other beneficiaries concerned over-declared his areas to the detriment of the former.
