(b) the annual accounts referred to in paragraph 1 (e) in conjunction with the second paragraph.
(4) Where the Statutes have been amended after the instrument of establishment, a copy of the documents shall also be presented. Article 293 of Book 2 of the Civil Code Statute as amended by the Statute.
5. The Minister shall decide no later than four weeks after receipt of the request, referred to in the first paragraph.
6. The Minister may require already approved applicants at any time to provide the most recent financial statements referred to in the first paragraph, part e.
The Training and Development Fund approved by the Minister as a grant applicant shall notify the Minister of circumstances without delay, who may have an influence on the recognition as a grant applicant.
The Minister shall withdraw the order for recognition as a grant applicant in writing, if it has been established that the Training and Development Fund no longer complies with one of the elements listed in Article 1 (a) (a) to (f).
A grant applicant granted on the basis of the ESF subsidy scheme 2007 to 2013 shall be considered to be a recognition pursuant to Article 1 of this Annex.
In the context of the justification for the final declaration, the beneficiary shall undercut the costs with original supporting documents. The European Regulation makes it possible to accept certified copies or full digital documents as evidence. To this end, a authentication procedure for the determination of authenticity is to be established by the Member State (Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1828/2006). This Annex lists the procedures established by the Netherlands.
The European Commission shall, on the basis of the above Article, accept at least the following documents as evidence:
a. Photocopies of originals;
b. Microfiches of originals;
c. Electronic versions of originals;
d. Electronic versions only, provided that the computer systems used comply with accepted security standards which ensure that the documents held comply with the legal requirements to be applied to them and that, in the case of checks, those documents may be supported.
Please find below the procedures for using these documents as accepted supporting documents in the framework of the ESF Administration.
Procedure for marking of converted documents (parts a, b and c)
The Tax Administration speaks of data conversion at the time when data is transferred from the original data carrier to another data carrier. In the list of the European Commission (Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1828/2006), it is the parts a, b and c: photocopies of originals, microfiches of originals, and electronic versions of originals.
You can use these converted data under conditions as supporting documents to support the ESF administration. If this is done correctly, it is no longer necessary, within the framework of the ESF, to retain the supporting documents on the original data medium. The converted piece of proof may not be allowed to be changed after conversion.
The document that is converted to a new data medium is certified by the grant applicant or by the owner of the document. This is to ensure the authenticity of the converted document.
The valuation procedure ensures that the converted documents can be used in the context of ESF justification, as well as the original supporting documents. This will be accomplished as follows.
1. Marking by the owner of the original supporting documents:
The staff member concerned shall make a mark by (1.) sign a signature and (2) the date of authentication of the original document or the converted document (at least the mark must be visible on the converted document). It specifies that it is a copy of the original to protect the ESF administration, or where the mark is placed on the original, that the document is certified for the purpose of the ESF administration.
In this way, the owner of the supporting documents guarantees the authenticity of the converted document used as the responsibility for the ESF project.
2. Authentication by the applicant for the subsidy:
The owner of the supporting documents shall not always be the applicant for the grant. In these cases, it is also permissible for the applicant to observe the converted documents (in practice, it is often a copy of copies). The applicant hereby guarantees the authenticity of the converted supporting documents by, inter alia, establishing a relationship with the other supporting documents in the project dossier. For example, an invoice includes a payment certificate, a certificate of participation, or a piece of evidence in relation to the procurement procedure. The mutual relationship of these documents ensures that the authenticity of the converted document is guaranteed and that it can be relied upon for audit purposes. If there are sufficient guarantees for the applicant of the authenticity of the converted piece of proof, he/she shall, in accordance with the commercial procedures described in point 1, verify this document.
Converted supporting documents certified in the manner described above should be certified as supporting documents for administrative accountability in the context of the ESF. The original documents need not be retained for the ESF administration. The two procedures described above can be applied within a project at the same time and by each other.
Procedure for the storage of documents consisting solely of an electronic version (part d)
Where a beneficiary makes use of electronic documents consisting exclusively of an electronic version, the computerised systems shall be provided with management and security measures which shall ensure reliability, authenticity and authenticity, and safeguarding the integrity of electronic data. It is up to the beneficiary to demonstrate this. This can be connected to the regulations that the Tax Service is making to digital administrations. For a pair of common situations, the requirements are detailed below:
1. Digital Hours Administration:
In order to meet the reliability, authenticity and integrity requirements of the electronic data, the beneficiary must be able to demonstrate that:
• The function separation within the system shall be ensured;
• The timeliness within the system shall be ensured;
• Determinations made after according by the supervisor are no longer necessary.
It shall be available to the grant applicant to demonstrate this.
2. Invoices that are digitally transmitted:
in order to meet the reliability, authenticity and integrity of the electronic data, the applicant can demonstrate through the mutual relationship with other documents (such as, among other things, a payment certificate) that the are supported on the digital invoice.
For what types of supporting documents, the procedures described in this Annex may be applied?
The procedures set out in this Annex shall apply to supporting documents, as in the case of: Article 16 (1) -which must be taken into account in the context of the ESF.
Documents that must be in original or certified part of the ESF project administration are, for example, invoices, payment certificates, hour and attendance records.
For documents which are not in the possession of the beneficial owner or the applicant, copies or digital versions of which no authentication has been carried out may also be retained.
These include, for example, documents held by the participants in projects, such as ID cards, pay strips and diplomas obtained.
