Overall programme conditionalities. Before the Financing Agreement between the Commission and the Government of Bulgaria is signed, the National Aid Coordinator will satisfy the Commission that adequate steps have been taken to staff and resource adequately the National Fund, CFCU, the Phare CBC Implementing Agency of the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works and project management units involved in implementing this programme. Before the Financing Agreement between the Commission and the Government of Bulgaria is signed, the National Aid Coordinator will confirm the availability of the national co-financing indicated in each project fiche, and the modalities for combining Phare and national co-financing when projects are contracted. Any project involving the supply of equipment and works requires national co-financing as shown in the relevant project fiche. In addition, all operational and running costs and the maintenance of the equipment will be provided by the final beneficiaries. If the total cost of equipment or works is less than the amount envisaged in the fiche, the amount of Phare support will be reduced to maintain unchanged the relative proportions of Phare support and national co-financing shown in the fiche. If the total cost is greater than the amount envisaged in the fiche, the extra support required will be provided by additional national co-financing. Before the Financing Agreement between the Commission and the Government of Bulgaria is signed, the National Aid Coordinator will satisfy the Commission that draft Guidelines for Applicants and technical specifications have been prepared, as appropriate, to allow each project to be launched immediately. For projects involving more than one Bulgarian Ministry or agency, the National Aid Co-ordinator will ensure that effective mechanisms for co-operation and co-ordination between such Ministries or agencies are in place. The National Aid Co-ordinator will undertake thorough reviews of progress on implementation of the projects listed at least every three months from the time the Financing Agreement is signed until the final date for contracting. If these reviews indicate that by the first quarter of the final year for contracting (2008 unless otherwise specified) there is a high risk of a project or component of a project not being contracted, the Commission reserves the right to take remedial action including, if necessary, reallocating funds to other purposes or cancelling projects or components thereof. Further project-specific conditionalities are described in each project fiche.
