1.Assistance shall be implemented through multi-annual operational programmes. These operational programmes shall be drafted by the operating structures. They shall be established in close consultation with the Commission and the relevant stakeholders, and approved through a Commission Decision, in accordance with Article 8(1).

(d)information on the priority axis, the related measures and their specific targets. Such targets shall be quantified, when appropriate, using a limited number of result indicators.

(e)when some measures are intended to be implemented through aid schemes for enterprises, related modalities shall be described;
(f)a description of the technical assistance operations, which shall be undertaken under a specific priority axis.
