Q. According to the ENPI regulations the beneficiaries have to keep all programme documents seven years after closure. How shall we deal with cases when beneficiaries were dissolved without prior informing the JMA and/or handing over the documents to any partner?

A. Specific instructions should be issued for the project beneficiaries and partners on how to deal with the cases of liquidation of institutions with no successor. The transfer of all documents to the beneficiary should be recommended. In case of liquidation of the beneficiary, the documents should be transferred to one of the partners (theoretically the lead partner) and JMA be informed. If such instructions are clearly set for the closing projects, there is no additional responsibility for JMA.
