Q : What does the ‘acquisition of infrastructure’ presented in the definition of LIPs (Art. 2p of the ENI CBC Implementing Rules) mean? Does the definition refer only to costs of works and services related to (re)construction, renovation, installation of infrastructure?

A: The “acquisition of infrastructure” mentioned in the definition of LIPs provided for in the ENI CBC IRs includes not only costs of works and services related to (re)construction, renovation, installation of infrastructure and its supervision but also other activities like, for example, costs of preparation of the technical documentation and costs of supplies related to the infrastructure component, including purchase of fixed assets.
