Section III U.K. Irregularities

Article 54 U.K. Common Provisions

1. For any undue payment following the occurrence of irregularity or negligence, [F38 the relevant authority] shall request recovery from the beneficiary [F39 within 18 months] after the approval and, where applicable, reception, by the paying agency or body responsible for the recovery, of a control report or similar document, stating that an irregularity has taken place.

F40 2. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

3. On duly justified grounds, [F41 the relevant authority] may decide not to pursue recovery. A decision to this effect may be taken only in the following cases:

(a) where the costs already and likely to be effected total more than the amount to be recovered, which condition shall be considered to have been met if:

(i)

the amount to be recovered from the beneficiary in the context of an individual payment for an aid scheme or support measure, not including interest, does not exceed [F42 EUR 100] [F42 £100]; or

(ii)

[F43 the amount to be recovered from the beneficiary in the context of an individual payment for an aid scheme or support measure, not including interest, falls between [F44 EUR 100] [F44 £100] and [F45 EUR 250] [F45 £250] and the [F46 relevant authority] concerned applies a threshold equal to or higher than the amount to be recovered under [F47 the law applying in the constituent nation] for not pursuing national debts.]
