Organisation and management

The Dutch Province of Limburg manages the programme as the Managing Authority (MA). The partners are closely involved in implementing the programme, however, for one thing owing to their membership of the Monitoring Committee. The European Commission and Meuse-Rhine Euregio Foundation are also members of this Committee.


In addition to acting as the Managing Authority, the Province of Limburg is also the designated Certifying Authority(CA), responsible for arranging the payments. The Joint Secretariat, located in Eupen (Belgium), concerns itself mainly with organising projects and monitoring their finances. All these people work on a cross-border basis with the Regional Antennas and other regional contacts. They are the main contact persons for project applicants and project operators.

See the public summary for more information about the Interreg V EMR programme and its organisational structure.
