Hi Peter, Normally an EU project pays 75% of the employment costs of people in the following categories - Manager, Researcher, Technical, Admin. with a maximum daily rate in each depending on the country. eg in Bulgaria it is 79, 71, 55, 37 Euros in Spain 295, 265, 204, 143 Higher in the UK and Germany. 75% just means that you demonstrate you did 100 days and got paid by the grant for 75 of them. Up to 30% of the project can be subcontracted although in practice its usually a lot less. Subcontracts up to 12000 Euros do not need to be tendered. Typically subcontracts are used for translations, professional consultancy and such like. This is why it is difficult to delegate work from a project to just anyone in the community. You have to say at the application stage who is getting paid for what and how much budget goes to each partner. There is some flexibility though through subcontracting. -- Ian Ofqual Accredited IT Qualifications A new approach to assessment for learning www.theINGOTs.org - 01827 305940 You have received this email from the following company: The Learning Machine Limited, Reg Office, 36 Ashby Road, Tamworth, Staffordshire, B79 8AQ.
