         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 926/2011
   of 12 September 2011
   for the purposes of Council Decision 2009/470/EC as regards Union financial aid to the EU reference laboratories for feed and food and the animal health sector
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Decision 2009/470/EC of 25 May 2009 on expenditure in the veterinary field (1), and in particular Article 31(2) thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Decision 2009/470/EC lays down the procedures governing the Union’s financial contribution towards inspection measures in the veterinary field. Pursuant to that Decision, the Union is to contribute towards improving the efficiency of veterinary inspections by granting financial aid to EU liaison and EU reference laboratories. It provides that any EU liaison or EU reference laboratory designated as such in accordance with Union veterinary legislation and fulfilling the duties and requirements laid down therein, may receive Union aid.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               Regulation (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on official controls performed to ensure the verification of compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare rules (2) lays down the general tasks, duties and requirements for EU reference laboratories for food and feed and for animal health and live animals. EU reference laboratories for food and feed are listed in Part I while EU reference laboratories for animal health and live animals are listed in Part II of Annex VII to that Regulation.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Commission Regulation (EC) No 1754/2006 of 28 November 2006 laying down detailed rules for the granting of Community financial assistance to Community reference laboratories for feed and food and the animal health sector (3) lays down the detailed rules for the granting of Union financial aid for the operation of EU reference laboratories, as provided for in Article 31 of Decision 2009/470/EC and Article 32 of Regulation (EC) No 882/2004, and for the organisation of workshops.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               Under Regulation (EC) No 1754/2006, the relationship between the Commission and individual EU reference laboratories is to be laid down in partnership agreements. Partnership agreements are to run for 5 years and be supported by a multiannual work programme.
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               EU reference laboratories are listed in Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 882/2004. The Joint Research Centre was designated for some of them. As it is a directorate-general of the Commission, this Regulation does not apply. Rules governing the Union financial aid for the Joint Research Centre are laid down in an annual administrative arrangement.
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               The level of the annual Union financial aid for the activity of certain EU reference laboratories is decided on a yearly basis by annual financing decisions relating to feed and food safety and animal health and live animals.
            
         
               (7)
            
            
               In 2008, the Commission’s Internal Audit Service (IAS) performed an audit on grant management in food safety, animal health and welfare and plant health activity. The IAS concluded that the detailed rules for the granting of Union financial aid to EU reference laboratories for feed and food and the animal health sector should be simplified. To simplify the rules, the IAS suggested that the Commission continue adopting annual financing decisions on a yearly basis but without the need for partnership agreements between the Commission and each individual EU reference laboratory.
            
         
               (8)
            
            
               Meetings and training activities held by EU reference laboratories need to be regularly organised. Therefore, meetings and training activities should be added to the list of eligible expenditure of this Regulation.
            
         
               (9)
            
            
               For financial control purposes, Articles 9, 36 and 37 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 of 21 June 2005 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (4) are applicable.
            
         
               (10)
            
            
               Since a number of changes are to be made to Regulation (EC) No 1754/2006, that Regulation should be repealed and replaced by this Regulation in the interests of clarity, while taking into account Regulation (EC) No 882/2004.
            
         
               (11)
            
            
               This Regulation is to apply to all EU reference laboratories whose framework partnership agreements come to an end in 2011 and for EU reference laboratories whose framework partnership agreements are terminated by mutual agreement. For EU reference laboratories whose framework partnership agreements are not terminated, Regulation (EC) No 1754/2006 remains applicable.
            
         
               (12)
            
            
               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
            
         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

      ANNEX IV
      
         Eligibility rules applicable to expenditure relating to workshops
      
      (see Article 15(4))
      I.   TRAVEL COSTS
      
      1.   TICKETS AND TRAVEL EXPENSES
      1.1.   General rules
      
      Participants must use the most appropriate and cost-effective means of transport. As far as possible, public or shared transport is to be used taking account, among other things, of the environmental impact.
      All travel is deemed to start on the premises of the laboratories. Participants are directly responsible for any detours made for private reasons, including departures from and/or returns to any other place, and must indicate such detours and pay the excess cost involved.
      Travel expenses incurred for the participation in the workshop are to be reimbursed exclusively based on the most appropriate and cost-effective means of transport between the laboratories’ premises and the place where the workshop is organised.
      Reimbursement must take into account the meetings’ duration and must be based on the best rates available from the preferential rates negotiated and other promotional fares available on the market.
      1.2.   Travel by rail
      
      Travel expenses are to be reimbursed for first-class travel by the shortest and most cost-effective route.
      1.3.   Travel by air
      
      
                  (1)
               
               
                  Air travel is to be booked, at the lowest available rates, taking into account the duration of meetings:
                  
                              (a)
                           
                           
                              in economy class or equivalent;
                           
                        
                              (b)
                           
                           
                              in business class or equivalent, if the journey includes at least one segment involving at least 4 hours continuous flying time.
                           
                        
            
                  (2)
               
               
                  Where the fare conditions require a weekend stay (Sunday rule), additional daily allowances may be paid if cost-effective overall.
                  Participants are to request and retain from the approved travel agency the different rates available (including/excluding a weekend stay) so that the most cost-effective decision is reached. Nevertheless, participants are not under an obligation to spend the weekend at the place of workshop for the sole purpose of more cost-effective travel arrangements.
                  Used tickets, original boarding cards and hotel invoices are to be provided to the Commission upon its request.
               
            1.4.   Travel by car for professional reasons
      
      Travel by car is authorised if cost-effective compared to travel by air or rail, particularly where the car is shared by a number of participants.
      Travel by private car for professional reasons is authorised. However, travel expenses relating to the distance covered are to be reimbursed up to a maximum of EUR 0,22 per km.
      1.5.   Taxis – Parking – Tolls – Public transport (bus, tram, metro)
      
      The daily allowance is normally considered to cover all expenditure incurred by the participants attending a workshop. Expenses relating to public transport, taxi fares, tolls and parking are not eligible costs for reimbursement.
      II.   DAILY ALLOWANCES
      
      
         Calculation
      
      Daily allowances are to be calculated as follows:

                  6 hours or less: 20 % of the daily allowance and any travel costs on the basis of supporting documents,
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  more than 6 hours but not more than 12 hours: half the daily allowance,
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  more than 12 hours, but not more than 30 hours: the daily allowance,
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  more than 30 hours but not more than 36 hours: one and a half times the daily allowance,
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  more than 36 hours but not more than 54 hours: two times the daily allowance,
               
            
                  —

         Method of length calculation
      
      The hours taken into account to calculate the daily allowance are:
      
                  —
               
               
                  for air travel: including 2 hours before the flight departure and 2 hours after the flight arrival,
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  for train travel: including 0,5 hour before train departure and 0,5 hour after the train arrival.
               
            
         Expenses covered
      
      The daily allowance is to be paid at a flat-rate amount and is considered to cover breakfast, two main meals and all other sundries, travel means as stipulated under point 1.5 and the cost of telecommunication tools.
      
         Amount of the daily allowance
      
      The amount of the daily allowance is to be determined in accordance with Article 1 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1066/2006 of 27 June 2006 adjusting from 1 July 2006 the scale for missions by officials and other servants of the European Communities in the Member States (1).
      III.   HOTEL COSTS
      
      The ceiling for hotel costs is to be determined in accordance with Article 1 of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1066/2006.
      IV.   OTHER
      
      If the maximum number of participants provided for in Article 15(1) of the present Regulation is not reached, but a minimum of twenty participants from National Reference Laboratories have attended the workshop, the Commission is to accept that a maximum of three participants from Union reference laboratories may receive daily allowances, depending on the length of their attendance at the workshop.
      Regarding travel and hotel costs of those three participants, the Commission is not to reimburse them, unless the workshop takes places in another town than that of the laboratory.
      In addition, payment of such daily allowance as well as travel and hotel costs is only to be made where the maximum Union financial aid is not exceeded.
