First Level Control Requirements

Poland has opted for a mixed system depending on the status of the Polish partners.

  1. Project partners from the Marshall Offices, Voivodes, Ministries and Central Offices

If Marshall Offices, Voivodes, Ministries and Central offices are project partners, a decentralised control system is implemented. In this case, these bodies propose their independent internal controller, to the following body :

Ministry of Regional Development
Territorial Cooperation Department
ul. Rakowiecka 2A
02-517 Warsaw

Contact person : Magdalena Rudzińska
E-mail : (secretariat) dwt@mrr.gov.pl
Phone : +48 22 330 33 70
Fax : +48 22 330 31 56

This body will authorise the internal controller proposed by the project partner (All project partners other than the Lead Partner) if the controller is considered to be sufficiently independent from project activities and finances and qualified to carry out the control of an INTERREG IVC project.

The controller has to be officially authorized before the first expenditure can be reported and confirmed.

Project partners from the above mentioned body can also ask to the Implementing Authority for European Programmes to carry out the first level control. The role of the Implementing Authority for European Programmes is described below.

The control will be free of charge for beneficiaries.

2. Project partners from other organisations

In all other cases, a centralised control system is applied. Expenditure of Polish project partners will thus have to be checked and confirmed by the following body :

Implementing Authority for European Programmes
ul. Rakowiecka 2A
02-517 Warsaw
Phone : + 48 22 461 87 39/+48 22 461 86 58
Fax : + 48 22 461 87 22

Contact person : Ms. Sylwia Tyszko
Phone : + 48 22 461 88 04
E-mail : sylwia.tyszko@wwpe.gov.pl

If partners mentioned under point 1 do not opt for an independent internal controller, they can use the above-mentioned body.

This Body will perform the first level control free of charge to Polish project partners.

For further information :

Further information on how to submit application to the central approbation body is available under the following link : http://www.ewt.gov.pl

Other Country Specific Information :

Polish lead partners can apply for funds from the state budget (up to 15% of the partner’s budget). This mechanism is reviewed each year. It is recommended that interested Lead Partners check the procedure which can be accessed on the website of the Ministry of Regional Development.
