Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 718/2007 of 12 June 2007 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1085/2006 establishing an instrument for pre–accession assistance (IPA)(2) provides for detailed rules for the implementation of the IPA Regulation.

(3) In the specific provisions for the cross-border component, the derogation clause for eligible expenditure as regards operating costs should be aligned to that of the transition assistance and institution building component.

In the light of the experience gained in the implementation of these rules, the pre-financing paid by the Commission to the countries benefiting from the human resources development and the rural development component should be increased and these provisions should be aligned with the provisions governing pre-financing for the regional development component.
