Technical webinar on designing & implementing SCOs and FNLC in the 2021-27 programming period.

In the framework of the programming seminars to prepare Managing authorities for challenges of the next MFF, the European Commission is organising a technical webinar on designing & implementing SCOs and FNLC in the 2021-27 programming period. The key objective of the webinar is twofold: to discuss in detail the SCOs & FNLC provisions of the new CPR as well as to provide practical information on submission of SCO/FNLC schemes under Article 88 of the new CPR. This will allow the Managing Authorities to best prepare for the submission of SCO/FNLC schemes to the Commission as part of their programmes. The event will take place on 23 February 2021, 9.30 - 13.00 on WebEx. It is open to the Managing, Coordinating & Audit Authorities at the level of the Member State. The Member States should coordinate the composition of their delegations (the number of delegates per Member State should not be more than 3 persons from Managing / Coordinating Authorities + 3 persons from Audit Authorities). Please note you can also follow the webinar via the webstreaming (see below). Participants can submit their questions in advance by sending them to REGIO-SCOS@ec.europa.eu by 4 February 2021. The webinar will be recorded. The agenda below is tentative and will be revised to cover questions that will be submitted by the Member States. The event will also be livestreamed: https://webcast.ec.europa.eu/2021-2027-technical-seminars-webinar-on-designing-implementing-scos-and-fnlc . There is no limit of participants in this case.
