Dear all,

Please find attached a mail from Commission related to move towards the
electronic only signature and transmission of the Forms C instead of
submission of signed Form C.

Please let us know by e-mail if you agree with this change proposed by
Commission or you prefer the current method (submission of signed hard
copies).

We´ll only request this modification if all the partners agree.

Dear Coordinator,








This is to inform you that the Commission adopted on 14/12/2012 a decision
regarding the implementation of FP7 grant agreements.





1. Entry into force of the new Financial Regulation





Further to the entry into force of the new Financial Regulation (Regulation
(EU, Euratom) No 966/2012 on the financial rules applicable to the general
budget of the Union repealing Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No
1605/2002) the following new rules will be applicable to this grant
agreement as of 1 January 2013, with no need to amend the grant agreement
(i.e no action is needed from the consortium):



      ·   time-to-pay: the time limit allowed for making payments to
      beneficiaries is reduced to 30 days for the pre-financing and to 90
      days for the interim and final payments;
      ·   interest on pre-financing: the beneficiaries of EU funds will no
      longer be obliged to deposit pre-financing on interest-bearing bank
      accounts and to declare the interest yielded by these accounts.





However please note that until 31/12/2012 the provisions regarding interest
on pre-financing mentioned in the grant agreement will continue to apply.
For example for an on-going project if the reporting period covers 1.6.2012
to 31.5.2013, only the interest on pre-financing which has been generated
from 1.6.2012 to 31.12.2012 should be declared, no interest from 1.1.2013
to 31.5.2013.








2. Electronic-only signature and transmission of Form C and electronic-only
transmission of certificates on financial statements and on methodology





The Commission also decided to allow consortia of ongoig projects to opt
for the application of the electronic-only signature and transmission of
financial statements (Form C), and electronic-only transmission of
certificates on financial statements and certificates on the methodology
(Forms D and E). To this end beneficiaries must introduce a request for an
amendment via the coordinator. Instructions on how to request such an
amendment and the template amendment letter to be sent by the coordinator
to the Commission are enclosed to the present email. Please note that
before requesting such an amendment, you should make sure that all
beneficiaries have nominated a LEAR empowered to assign the person(s)
authorised to act as signatory/signatories of financial statements (forms
C).


Once the grant agreement is amended, the consortium shall transmit the
reports and other deliverables through the coordinator to the Commission
using the electronic exchange system set up by the Commission. In
particular:
      ·   Form C must be electronically signed and transmitted through the
      electronic exchange system by the authorised person(s) within the
      beneficiary's organisation.
      ·   The certificates on the financial statements and the certificates
      on the methodology must be hand-signed by an authorised person of the
      auditing entity on paper and a scanned copy of the certificates shall
      be transmitted through the electronic exchange system.





More information on these changes is included in the enclosed guidance note
"FP7 Quick Information letter on the electronic-only transmission and
signature of Form C and electronic-only transmission of certificates (Forms
D and E)".


Should you have any question regarding the present email please do not
hesitate to contact the FP7 helpdesk at
https://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/page/contactus.





Please inform the other benficiaries of this grant agreement about these
changes.
