The quality assessment of the project applications submitted within the first Call for Proposals was performed by selected external assessors during February 2010.

Project Selection Committees (for Priority 1, 2 and 4) met for the second time to review the conclusions of the assessors and make their recommendations to the Joint Monitoring Committee on project proposals to be selected on 23 and 24 March 2010 in Budapest. The PSCs took their decisions independently from each other.

At the end of the whole evaluation process, JMC will be convened for definitive approval of the selected proposals and of the maximum amounts awarded to the projects. This final decision making JMC meeting is planned to be organized in second half of April 2010.

Information about the result of the selection process will be delivered to the Applicants only after the JMC meeting.
