10 — Obligations Orange Corners Innovation Fund Grant Programme 2024–2030

Obligations

The grant decision will set out the obligations tied to the grant, including in any event an obligation to notify RVO if the grant recipient cannot (or cannot fully) comply with the conditions of the grant and/or cannot (or cannot fully) carry out the activities for which the grant has been awarded. It will also forbid the grant recipient and the primary supplier from using child and/or forced labour.

15 Any form of labour that the International Labour Organization seeks to prevent with the Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (no. 29), the Abolition of Forced Labour Convention, 1957 (No. 105) or the Minimum Age Convention, 1973 (No. 138).

The grant recipient must also immediately notify RVO of any facts or circumstances that would suggest these organisations are using child and/or forced labour.

The grant decision will also provide for an initial three-month period to fine-tune the grant recipient’s cooperation with the OCIAC, and where necessary make adjustments to avoid duplication and ensure synergy. At the end of the three months the grant recipient will submit an action plan agreed with the OCIAC to guide the implementation of activities.

The reporting obligations will include a stipulation that the grant recipient must arrange for an audit to be carried out by an independent external auditor halfway through the grant period and after its conclusion.

The grant recipient will also be asked to submit a report one year after the activities have been concluded, reporting on the progress made by the entrepreneurs supported by the project. RVO will use this report to assess the programme’s sustainability.

As great importance is attached to adaptive programming, a grant recipient will be able to modify the action plan during the course of the activities if new insights are obtained or new situations arise. The grant recipient will set out these insights in its annual report and submit a request for amendment if it wishes to modify certain elements.

The grant decision may also require the grant recipient to ensure that the organisations or persons it intends to work with do not appear on EU or UN international sanctions lists,

as these are excluded from funding. In appropriate cases, this obligation will be formulated so as to ensure that the grant recipient must apply it to agreements with third parties.
