ANALYSIS PER MEMBER STATE 

Austria 

The  Austrian  Operational  Programme  (OP)  covers  the  entire  territory  of  Austria  which  is 
designated as a non-convergence region with one convergence region (Burgenland).  

Total  eligible  public  expenditure  of  the  OP  amounts  to  EUR  10  393  753,  out  of  which  the 
EFF allocation amounts to EUR 5 259 318, divided between the convergence (EUR 249 769 
with EUR 187 326 EFF allocation) and non-convergence region (EUR 10 143 984 with EUR 
5 071 992 EFF allocation).  

The allocation is almost entirely focused on axis 2 (98%). 

Overall  assessment:  There  is  good  progress  in  the  implementation  of  the  OP.  The 
management and control system is functioning well. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 678 790.50 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
881 027 was certified to the Commission.  

Belgium 

The OP covers the entire territory of Belgium (except Hainaut) which is designated as a non-
convergence region. 

Total  eligible  public  expenditure  of  the  OP  amounts  to  EUR  48  239  502,  out  of  which  the 
EFF allocation amounts to EUR 26 261 648.  

Allocation between priority axes: 44% for axis 1, 13% for axis 2, 30% for axis 3; 7% for axis 
4 and 5% for axis 5.  

Overall  assessment:  There  is  good  progress  in  the  implementation  of  the  OP.  The 
management and control system is functioning well. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 2 837 260.68 was committed by the Member State and no 
EFF expenditure was certified to the Commission. 

Bulgaria 

The OP covers the entire territory of Bulgaria which is designated as a convergence region. 
The total eligible public expenditure of the OP amounts to EUR 102 546 648, out of which 
the EFF allocation is EUR 75 876 747. 

Allocation between priority axes: 10 % for axis 1, 45 % for axis 2, 25 % for axis 3, 15 % for 
axis 4 and 5 % for axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  the  implementation  of  the  OP  in  2011  continues  to  show  low 
commitment and payment rates. 4 132 961 EUR were de-committed from the 2009 financial 
enveloppe. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 7 190 296.83 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
7 190 296.83 was certified to the Commission. 

The functioning of the management and control system for the EFF needs to be improved in 
order to ensure an effective imlementation of the OP. As a consequence, the progress of the 
Bulgarian EFF Programme is slow; this is likely to result in a de-commitment of funds at the

end  of  the  year.  The  high  turnover  of  personnel  has  significantly  affected  the  OP 
implementation.

Cyprus 

Cyprus represents 0.46% of the total EFF amount. The OP covers the entire territory of the 
Republic of Cyprus which is designated as a non-convergence region. The total eligible public 
expenditure of the OP amounts to EUR 39 448 836, out of which the EFF allocation is EUR 
19 724 418.  

Allocation between priority axes: 26.36% for Axis 1, 16.48% for Axis 2, 50.32% for Axis 3, , 
5.07% for Axis 4, and 1.77% for Axis 5. 

In  2011,  the  OP  was  modified  in  terms  of  its  financial  table  (Commission  Decision  C 
(2011)1658 of 16.03.2011).  

Overall assessment: The OP progresses very well both in financial and operational terms. The 
MA has issued calls for expression of interest activating measures under all the Priority Axes 
of the OP. There is no N+2 risk for de-commitment until the end of the programming period. 

In 2011, the EFF amount EUR 6 819 290 was committed by the Member State and  EUR 4 
367 980.78 was certified to the Commission. 

Czech Republic 

The OP covers the entire territory of the Czech Republic with the exception of Prague region 
and is designated as a convergence region.  

The total eligible OP public expenditure is EUR 36 142 234, out of which the EFF allocation 
is EUR 27 106 675 EFF. 

Allocation between priority axes: almost equally distributed between Axis 2 and 3 (44% and 
51% respectively).  

Overall assessment: good progress in implementation. Considering the deficiencies identified 
in  the  functioning  of  the  management  and  control  systems  (involving  mainly  the  Audit 
Authority), the Commission did not have reasonable assurance that the estimated error rate of 
0% reported by the Audit Authority was correct. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 5 279 250 was committed by the Member State and EUR 7 
671 187.20 was certified to the Commission. 

Germany 

The OP covers the entire territory of the Federal Republic of Germany with the exception of 
the Länder Hamburg, Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland, who do not participate to the 
program.  The  Länder  Brandenburg,  Mecklenburg-West  Pomerania,  Saxony,  Saxony-Anhalt, 
Thuringia  and  the  region  of  Luneburg  in  Lower  Saxony  are  designated  as  convergence 
regions and the rest of the Länder as non-convergence regions. 

The  total  eligible  public  expenditure  amounts  to  EUR  233  668  166,  out  of  which  the  EFF 
allocation is EUR 149 121 176.  

Allocation between priority axes: 4.5% for axis 1, 14.5% for axis 2, 47% for axis 3, 12.3% for 
axis 4 and 2.3% for axis 5. 

Overall assessment: The OP has a slow rate of implementation.

Denmark 

The OP covers the entire territory of Denmark which is designated as a non-convergence area. 

Total  eligible  public  expenditure  amounts  to  EUR  267  350  338  out  of  which  the  EFF 
allocation is EUR 133 675 169. 

Allocations  between  priority  axes:  30.20%  for  axis  1,  28.2%  for  axis  2,  27.3%  for  axis  3, 
9.3% for axis 4 and 5% for axis 5  

Overall assessment: The OP has a satisfactory rate of implementation. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 17 963 839 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
19 207 290.65 was certified to the Commission. 

Estonia 

The OP covers the entire territory of Estonia which is designated as a convergence region. 

Total eligible public expenditure of the OP amounts to EUR 112 757 386, out of which EFF 
allocation is EUR 84 568 039. 

The allocation between priority axes: 18% for axis 1, 29% for axis 2; 25% for axis 3, 23% for 
axis 4 and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  The  programme  implementation  is  running  smoothly.  Management  and 
control system functioning well. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 13 458 144 was committed by the Member State and EUR  
10 967 984.31 was certified to the Commission.  

Spain 

The Spanish OP covers Galicia, Castilla-La Mancha, Extremadura, Andalucia, Principado de 
Asturias,  Region  de  Murcia,  and  Ciudades  autonomas  de  Ceuta  y  Melilla  as  convergence 
regions and the rest of the country as a non-convergence region. 

Total  public  contribution  amounts  to  EUR  2  115  720  056,  out  of  which  EFF  allocation  is 
EUR 1 131 890 912.  

Allocation between priority axes: 39% for axis 1, 28.5% for axis 2, 26.4% for axis 3 and 4.4% 
for axis 4. 

Overall  assessment:  The  implementation  of  the  OP  slowded  down  in  2011.  National 
commitment were reduced by 43% in convergence area and by 67% in non convergence area. 
Certified amounts followed the same pattern. Axis 2, in particular in non convergence area, 
was more particularly affected by this slow down in 2011. Overall, in terms of commitments, 
the implementation rate was 39% in convergence area by the end of 2010 and was 48% by the 
end of 2011. In non convergence area, it was 49% by the end of 2010 and 54% by the end of 
2011. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 93 479 162 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
137 440 333.87 was certified to the Commission. 

Finland 

The OP covers  the  entire territory of  the country which is  designated as  a  non-convergence 
region. It also includes support for the Åland Islands. 

The total eligible public expenditure of the programme is EUR 91 848 827, out of which EFF 
allocation is EUR 39 448 827.

Allocation between priority axes: 8.7% for axis 1, 43.1% for axis 2, 37.5% for axis 3, 9.1% 
for axis 4 and 1.6% for axis 5. 

Overall assessment: The OP has a good rate of implementation. Finland reported an error rate 
of 3.23% in the 2011 annual control report.. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 6 947 151.70 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
5 424 406.97 was certified to the Commission. 

France 

The OP covers four convergence regions, Guadeloupe, Guyane, Martinique and Réunion (the 
DOMs) and the rest of the country designated as non-convergence region. 
Current  total  public  contribution  amounts  to  EUR  562  950  450.06  (following  3rd  OP 
modification on 04.05.2011 (C(2011)2935) out of which EFF allocation is EUR 216 053 084. 

Allocation between priority axes: 30.1% for axis 1, 25.1% for axis 2, 41.0% for axis 3, 2.6% 
for axis 4 and 1.2% for axis 5. 

Overall assessment: By the end of 2011, a total amount of EUR 79 303 704 had been certified 
to  the  Commission.  In  non-convergence  regions  implementation  was  very  high  for  axis  1 
(mainly for permanent and temporary cessation of fishing activities) while lagging behind for 
other axes. Implementation in convergence regions is very slow due to administrative delays, 
to the difficulty to identify new projects and to find private funding.  

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 27 178 892 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
19 528 675 was certified to the Commission. 

Greece 

Greece  represents  4.83%  of  the  total  EFF  amount.  The  OP  covers  the  whole  territory  of 
Greece (the regions of Sterea Ellada and South Aegean are non-convergence regions while the 
rest of the country is a convergence region). 

The total public contribution amounts to EUR 274 105 143 out of which the EFF allocation is 
EUR 207 832 237 (EUR 176 836 728 for the 11 Convergence regions and EUR 30 995 509 
for the 2 non-convergence regions). 

Allocation between priority axes: 37% was allocated to Axis 1, 28. 7% to Axis 2, 16% to Axis 
4, 15.55% to Axis 3, and 2.53% to Axis 5. 

Overall assessment: The rate of implementation of the OP is slow mainly due to:  

a)  the  complicated  national  legal  framework  (the  issue  of  a  Joint  Ministerial  Decision  is 
prerequisite for the  implementation of each  measure, long delays in the establishment of an 
institutional  framework  for  the  spatial  planning  of  aquaculture  that  aimed  at  clarifying  the 
licensing regime for aquaculture units),  

b)  the  numerous  political  changes  resulting  in  the  transfer  of  the  responsibility  of  the 
Managing Authority (MA) from the Ministry of Agriculture to the Ministry of Development, 
Competitiveness  and  Shipping,  where  a  Secretary  General  -who  inter  alia  chairs  the 
Monitoring Committee- had not been nominated until the recent governmental elections,  

c) the insufficient administrative capacity of the MA and the Intermediate body (staff losses, 
lack of specific competences such as legal officer specialized in EU law and IT officer), and  

EN 

8 

   EN 

 
d) the economic crisis resulting both in low commitment and payment rates at national level 
and  low  interest  from  private  beneficiaries  to  invest  despite  of  the  co-funding  facility.  The 
Managing Authority has worked on the setting up of a financial mechanism (a holding fund 
known as ENALIO), to facilitate guarantees and borrowing for private project promoters. The 
instrument, however, is not up and running yet, as further to the two (2) calls for tenders that 
have  been  launched,  it  is  proving  difficult  to  find  a  bank  to  manage  and  co-fund  the 
instrument.  

In  2011,  an  EFF  amount  of  EUR  91  812  784.42  was  committed  by  the  Member  State  and 
EUR 26 878 883.21 was certified to the Commission. 

One payment claim has been submitted to the Commission amounting to EUR 22 193 944.49 
for the Convergence regions and EUR 4 684 938.72 for the non-convergence. 

Hungary 

The Hungarian OP covers Budapest area (Közép-Magyarország) as a non-convergence region 
and the rest of the country as a convergence region. 

The total public contribution is EUR 46 840 816, out of which the EFF allocation is EUR 34 
850 860 (EUR 34 291357 for convergence regions and EUR 559 503 for the non-convergence 
region).  

Allocation between priority axes: 69.3% for axis 2; 25.6% for axis 3 and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  The  OP  rate  of  implementation  is  good  for  Axis  2,  but  rather  slow  for 
Axis 3. Management and control system is functioning well. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 6 209 679 was committed by the Member State and EUR 3 
077 169 was certified to Commission.  

Ireland 

The Irish OP covers the entire country which is designated as a non-convergence region. 

Total public contribution amounts to EUR 65 555 603 out of which EFF allocation is EUR 42 
266 603. 

Allocation  between  priority  axes:  82%  for  axis  1,  14.5  %  for  axis  3  and  3.5%  for  axis  4. 
Scrapping  which  takes  82%  (i.e.  EUR  34  800  000)  of  the  OP  is  at  a  satisfactory  level  with 
EUR 7 300 000 still to be spent. 46 vessels have already been scrapped.  

Overall assessment: The OP implementation is progressing well. A second interim payment 
claim was received on 22 December 2011 thus removing any risk of de-commitment.  

In 2011, no project was committed by the Member State and an no EFF amount was certified 
to the Commission. 

Italy 

The  OP  includes  Sicily,  Puglia,  Campania,  Basilicata  and  Calabria  as  convergence  regions 
and the rest of the country as a non-convergence area. 

The total public contribution amounts to 848 685 708 out of which the EFF allocation is EUR 
424  342  854  (EUR  318  281  864  for  convergence  regions  and  EUR  106  060  990  for  non-
convergence).

Allocation between priority axes: 39% for axis 1, 25% for axis 2, 25.5% for axis 3, 5.5% for 
axis 4 and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  Italy  has  a  large  programme  with  substantial  allocation  to  axis  1 
representing  a  major  challenge  for  absorption.  The  complex  management  system  where  the 
regions  manage  their  share  of  the  OP,  and  delays  in  the  implementation  of  Axis  3  and  4 
contributed to the low rate of absorption in the earlier stage of the programme. Eventually, in 
2011 the implementation of the operational program boosted, mainly thanks to a massive use 
of  Axis  1  measures  (permanent  and  temporary  cessations  of  fishing  activities  in  the 
framework  of  a  Fishing  Effort  Adjustment  Plan).  Also  Axis  4  eventually  started  the 
implementation  and  in  late  2011  five  fishieries  groups  were  selected  with  about  30  more 
groups in the pipeline, although not yet producing certified expenditure. On the other side, the 
measure "modernisation of fishing vessesls" had to be interrupted due to the findings of the 
Court of Auditors in its audit on overcapacity. In general, measures managed by the central 
Managing authority and by non-convegence  regions  had better implementration rate  than in 
convergence regions. Nevertheless, no decommitments of EFF allocations occurred in 2011. 
In  late  2011  the  Managing  authroity  approved  a  shift  of  EFF  allocations  to  reinforce  the 
implementation of Axis 1 and 4. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 74 548 985 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
59 267 535 was certified to the Commission. 

Lithuania 

The OP covers the entire territory of the country which is designated as a convergence region. 

Total public contribution amounts to EUR 71 256 575 out of which EFF allocation is 

EUR 54 713 408. 

Allocation  between  priority  axes:  14%  for  axis  1,  51%  for  axis  2,  18%  for  axis  3,  12%  for 
axis 4 and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  The  implementation  of  the  programme  is  running  smoothly,  with  great 
progress in priority axes 1 and 2 and some delays in axis 4 and 3. Management and control 
system is functioning well. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 8 950 374.19 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
4 675 239.50 was certified to the Commission. 

Latvia 

The  OP  covers  the  entire  territory  of  the  country  which  is  designated  as  a  whole  as  a 
convergence region. 

Total  eligible  public  expenditure  of  the  OP  for  the  whole  programming  period  amounts  to 
EUR 166 687 419, out of which EFF allocation is EUR 125 015 563. 

Allocation  between  priority  axes:  21%  for  axis  1,  39%  for  axis  2,  22%  for  axis  3,  14%  for 
Axis 4 and 4% for Axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  The  OP  has  a  good  execution  rate  and  the  implementation  is  running 
smoothly. The management and control system is functioning well. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 36 649 096 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
25 474 344 was certified to the Commission.

The  OP  covers  the  entire  territory  of  the  country  which  is  designated  as  a  whole  as  a 
convergence region. 
The total public contribution amounts to EUR 11 163 105, out of which the EFF allocation is 
EUR 8 372 329. 
Allocation between priority axes: 25.98% for axis 1, 20.4% for axis 2, 48.9% for axis 3, and 
4.7% for axis 5. 
Overall  assessment:  In  Malta  the  EFF  Operational  Programme  was  implemented  smoothly 
with  important  progress  made  in  Axis  1  –  the  objectives  for  de-commissioning  were  by  far 
more than achieved. A substantial processing and marketing project was fairly advanced, and 
port installations up-graded. A national aquaculture strategy for the forthcoming programming 
period  was  prepared  through  a  preparatory  study.  No  major  difficulties  are  foreseen  in  the 
implementation of the Operational programme. 

The Managing Authority was shifted from the Resources (Fisheries) towards the Office of the 
Prime Minister where the administration of the Structural Funds is situated. This change led 
to a second modification of the Operational Programme. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 2 447 671.89 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
1 131 003 was certified to the Commission. 

The Netherlands 

The OP covers the entire territory of the Netherlands which is designated as a whole as a non-
convergence  region.  Total  eligible  public  expenditure  of  the  OP  amounts  to  EUR  120  578 
417, out of which the EFF allocation is EUR 48 578 417.  

Allocation  between  priority  axes:  35%  for  axis  1;  15%  for  axis  2;  35%  for  axis  3;  10%  for 
axis 4 and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall assessment: The OP has a rather slow rate of implementation. The management and 
control  system  has  been  accepted  by  the  Commission,  but  some  shortcomings  in  its 
functioning have been observed. The Dutch authorities reported an error rate of 5.9% in the 
2011 annual control report. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 5 786 964 was committed by the Member State and EUR 4 
638 743.45 was certified to the Commission. 

Poland 

The  EFF  OP  covers  the  entire  territory  of  Poland  which  is  designated  as  a  whole  as  a 
convergence region. 

The  total  eligible  public  expenditure  amounts  to  EUR  978  790  099,  out  of  which  the  EFF 
allocation is EUR 734 092 574.  

Initially,  the  allocation  between  priority  axes  was  23%  for  axis  1,  20%  for  axis  2,  20%  for 
axis  3,  32%  for  axis  4,  and  5%  for  axis  5.Following  an  OP  modification  on  21  December 
2011 (decision C(2011) 9964), the allocation between priority axes is as follows: 19.1% for 
axis 1, 22.2% for axis 2, 21.7% for axis 3, 32% for axis 4and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall assessment: The management and control systems were approved by the Commission. 
The implementation level was further improving in 2011, notably in axes 2 and 3. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 141 544 199.90  was committed by  the  Member State and 
EUR 102 119 571.92 was certified to the Commission.

The  Portuguese  OP  includes  Lisbon  and  the  autonomous  Region  of  Madeira  as  a  non-
convergence  regions  and  the  rest  of  the  country  as  a  convergence  regions.  Total  public 
contribution amounts to EUR 325 790 279, out of which the EFF allocation is EUR 246 485 
249.  

Allocation between axes: 25.5% for axis 1, 30.10% for axis 2, 33.84% for axis 3, 7.06% for 
axis 4 and 3.5% for axis 5.  

Overall  assessment:  The  implementation  of  the  OP  made  good  progress  in  2011  mainly  for 
commitments but is still delayed in terms of achievements. The overall rate of commitment is 
62%  for  convergence  but  only  47%  for  non-convergence  regions.  The  management  and 
control system was accepted by the Commission. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 30 175 775 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
29 368 170.52 was certified to the Commission. 

Romania 

The Romanian OP covers the entire territory of the country which is designated as a whole as 
a convergence region. 

The total eligible public expenditure of the programme amounts to EUR 307 618 942.7 out of 
which the EFF allocation is EUR 230 714 207. Allocation between priority axes: 4.32% for 
axis 1, 45.51% for axis 2, 13% for axis 3, 32.51% for axis 4 and 4.66 % for axis 5. 

Overall assessment: The OP is a large programme in financial terms if compared with the size 
of the fisheries sector; implementation of the OP in 2011 showed relative progress, since the 
description  of  the  Management  and  Control  System  (MCS)  was  only  approved  on  16 
November 2011. Nevertheless, this step ahead was overshadowed by a Report received from 
the  Romanian  Audit  Report  on  the  functioning  of  the  MCS  and  outlining  a  number  of 
deficiencies.  Romania  also  experienced  a  de-commitment  of  EUR  68  563  Euro  in  2011, 
which  prove  significant  deficiencies  in  the  implementation  of  the  OP.  These  deficiencies 
concern  the  functioning  of  the  MCS,  and  the  heavy  and  complicate  administrative 
environment.  The  high  turnover  of  personnel  continued  with  a  series  of  staff  changes  at  all 
hierarchical levels thus affecting the OP implementation. 

On  the  other  hand,  Romania  made  some  progress  on  Axis  4  in  2011,  which  led  to  the 
selection of 15 FLAGs at the beginning of 2012.  

In  2011,  an  EFF  amount  of  EUR  36  992  536.83  was  committed  by  the  Member  State  and 
EUR 22 029 538.97 was certified to the Commission. 

Sweden 

The  OP  covers  the  entire  territory  of  the  country  which  is  designated  as  a  whole  as  a  non-
convergence region. 

Total  eligible  public  expenditure  amounts  to  EUR  104  774  205,  out  of  which  the  EFF 
allocation is EUR 54 664 803.  

Allocation  between  priority  axes:  25%  for  axis  1,  20%  for  axis  2,  35%  for  axis  3,  15%  for 
axis 4 and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  The  OP  has  a  satisfactory  rate  of  implementation.  Sweden  reported  an 
error rate of 3.7% in the 2011 annual control report.

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 5 616 079 was committed by the Member State and EUR 5 
523 684.63 was certified to the Commission. 

Slovenia 

The  OP  covers  the  entire  territory  of  the  country  which  is  designated  as  a  whole  as  a 
convergence region. 
The total public contribution amounts to EUR 28 853 712, out of which the EFF allocation is 
EUR 21 640 283. 

Allocation  between  priority  axes:  10%  for  axis  1,  37%  for  axis  2,  35%  for  axis  3,  10%  for 
axis 4 and 8% for axis 5. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 7 499 761.55 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
3 523 408.72 was certified to the Commission. 

Slovenia  continued  its  heavy  investment  in  the  up-grading  of  fishing  harbours  and  gave 
widespread  support  to  aquaculture  be  it  in  fresh-  or  seawater;  preparations  took  place  for 
implementing Axes 1 and 4. 

Overall  assessment:  No  major  difficulties  are  foreseen  in  the  implementation  of  the 
Operational Programme. 

The Management and Control System remained unchanged, and the committed funding could 
be completely absorbed. 

Slovakia 

The  OP  covers  the  entire  territory  of  the  country  which  is  designated  as  a  Convergence 
region, with the exception of Bratislava and surrounding districts in Non-Convergence. 

The  total  OP  public  expenditure  was  reduced  from  EUR  18  922  750,  applying  the  rule  of 
automatic de-commitment to EUR 18 705 554, out of which EFF allocation is EUR 13 579 
930. 

Allocation between priority axes was also modified with this decision: 84% for axis 2, 11% 
for axis 3 and 5% for axis 5. 

Overall  assessment:  The  slow  initial  progress  in  the  implementation  improved  during  2011. 
However,  axis  3  and  the  non-convergence  region  continue  to  be  a  concern  with  very  small 
commitment rate. Slovakia reported an error rate of 2.33% in the 2011 annual control report.. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 5 878 933 was committed by the Member State and EUR 1 
257 371.92 was certified to the Commission. EUR 108 598 in non-convergence objective was 
de-committed 

United Kingdom 

The OP covers Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, West Wales and the Valleys, Highlands and 
Islands as convergence regions and the rest of the UK as non-convergence region.  

The total OP public expenditure is EUR 246 800 000 out of which the EFF allocation is EUR 
137 827 889. 

Allocation between priority axes for all areas: 28.8% for axis 1, 24.4% for axis 2, 36.0% for 
axis 3, 8.4% for axis 4 and 2.5 % for axis 5.

Overall  assessment:  As  in  previous  years,  EFF  implementation  progress  varies  between  the 
devolved  administrations.  While  England  and  Scotland  show  the  best  progress,  Wales  and 
Northern Ireland are lagging behind. 

In 2011, an EFF amount of EUR 83 000 000 was committed by the Member State and EUR 
27 814 843.45 was certified to the Commission. 

The  main  achievements  of  the  year  2011  are  the  acceptance  of  Management  and  Control 
System for Priority Axis 1, 2, 3 and 5 and launching Priority Axis 4. Following the mid-term 
evaluation, in 2011 preparations started for the Operational Programme modification.
