How To Apply : Stage One
The aim of a First Stage Application is to filter out those projects that do not meet the eligibility criteria and also to flag up any potential for collaborative bids between projects.
A First Stage Application must be submitted for each individual project.
To formally notify their interest in applying for Structural Funds, applicants are requested to submit an outline of their proposed project that will include the following information:
- Structural Fund Programme and Priority
- Proposed outline of expenditure
- Level of Grant sought and proposed grant intervention rate
- Sources of co-finance and anticipated dates of confirmation
- A brief description of the proposed project, including an outline of anticipated timescales, objectives, target groups, geographical coverage, partnerships and outputs and results
For the Second Application Round in 2008 the First Stage Application process will form part of the new €UROSYS system
