Indicative Audit Programme available

Published on | 1 year ago

Programmes HorizonEU L+F Digital Europe

The Indicative Audit Programme (IAP) has been published by the Commission on 15 July. This document is designed as a guide for financial audits in EU grants.
It is based on the corporate EU Model Grant Agreement that is used for all EU Programmes for the 2021-2027 EU financial framework and describes the context, objectives and standard procedures to ensure the conformity of project expenditure.

Together with the EU Grants AGA — Annotated Grant Agreement, it helps to explain the cost eligibility rules and the standards applied.

It is primarily designed for EU auditors, but can also be used as reference tool for other EU services, beneficiaries, etc.

Be aware: this is just a guide. It aims to define general principles and standards. The actual audits will be based on audit checklists and sampling methods that will be adapted to each programme and audit, and that may differ depending on factors such as type of funding programme, type of stakeholders, complexity, type of grant, type of action, specific risk factors, etc.

Miricle - Mine Risk Clearance for Europe

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
