States need to take actions to prevent, detect and correct irregularities in the use of EU funds. They have to report irregularities, monitor procedures used and recover amounts unduly paid. Furthermore, Regulation (EC) 1083/2006 obligates Member States to notify irregularities to the European Commission (EC) and to keep the EC informed of the progress of administrative and legal proceedings. The Member States need to continue their efforts to minimise the rate of irregularities. The European Academy for Taxes, Economics & Law invites to the seminar “Handling Irregularities in EU Funded Projects”.

At this seminar participants from all European MSs will learn from the first-hand experiences of leading experts from:
• Department for Communities and Local Government, United Kingdom
• Higher Education Authority, Ireland
• Marshal’s Office of the Swietokrzyskie Regional Government, Poland
• OLAF Coordination Bureau, National Tax and Customs Administration, Hungary

What will they learn at this seminar:
• How to identify irregularities and distinguish them from clerical and technical errors
• How to distinguish irregularities from fraud cases
• What are possible measures to prevent irregularities in the first place
• How to manage financial risks of irregularities
• How to exactly conduct corrections
• How to deal with irregularities in the procurement process
