Description


During the Grant Agreement Preparation, for topics involving transnational/virtual access to research infrastructures, the consortium adds a type of access for their research infrastructures in the Infrastructures tab: 

  • trans-national access: Art 16.1 is flagged in the GA options screen
  • virtual access: Art 16.2 is flagged in the GA options screen

For more information about these articles, please consult the Annotated Model Grant Agreement.     

The following changes will trigger the setting of amendment type 49: 

  • adding infrastructures/installations of an access type that does not yet exist in the project or removing all infrastructures/installations of a particular access type (trans-national/ virtual) (which results in Art. 16.1 or Art. 16.2 becoming applicable / not applicable)
  • changing the "additional rules for the selection of user groups" of trans-national access  (Art. 16.1)

(warning) If Art. 16.1 / Art. 16.2 become applicable / not applicable, then the beneficiaries/linked third parties may (no longer) declare costs for providing trans-national / virtual access to research infrastructures.
