Certain justified changes are allowed in the project, however, these need previous confirmation. Please get in touch with the Joint Technical Secretariat as early as possible regarding any changes in your project!

In the following cases the decision on the request for changes, budget re-allocation or prolongation can be taken by the Joint Technical Secretariat:
* Request includes minor changes in activities, which do not considerably affect the project and delivery of its results.
* Budget re-allocation request is up to 20% of the total project budget and only of technical nature.
   NB! It is allowed to re-allocate funding between budget lines and/or work packages, except budget line “Preparation costs”.
* Request to prolong the project up to 6 months.
* Due to reforms in partner organisation, official name of the partner organisation is changed.

In the following cases the decision on the request for changes, budget re-allocation or prolongation has to be taken by the Monitoring Committee.
* Request includes major changes in activities, which do considerably affect the project and delivery of its results.
* Request includes changes in partnership of the project.
* Budget re-allocation request is over 20 % of the total project budget.
  NB! It is allowed to re-allocate funding between budget lines and/or work packages, except budget line “Preparation costs”.
* Request to prolong the project for more than 6 months.

In case the project requests re-allocation of budget more than once during the project, the calculation, whether 20 % of the total project budget is exceeded or not, is done cumulatively based on all the submitted requests. The same cumulative principle applies for requesting prolongation of the project.

The prolongation request has to be submitted to the JTS the latest one month before the end date of the project.

All other requests can be submitted to the JTS the latest before approval of the last progress report by the JTS.
