Article 15 U.K. Assessment of revised performance plans and targets and adoption of corrective measures

1. The Commission shall assess each revised performance plan, or part thereof, and its performance targets on the basis of the criteria laid down in Annex IV.

2. Where the Commission finds that a revised performance plan, or part thereof, and its performance targets are consistent with the Union-wide targets and are adequately contributing towards them and are consistent with all the criteria laid down in Annex IV, it shall notify the Member State(s) concerned thereof within five months after receiving the revised performance plan.

3. Where the Commission finds that a revised performance plan, or part thereof, and some or all of its performance targets are still not consistent with the Union-wide targets and are not contributing adequately to them, and/or are still not consistent with one or several of the criteria laid down in Annex IV, the Commission shall, within five months after receiving the revised performance plan, or part thereof, and in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 5(3) of Regulation (EC) No 549/2004, decide that the Member State(s) concerned shall take corrective measures.

4. Such decision shall identify precisely, against the criteria laid down in Annex IV, which part of the plan and target(s) are to be revised and the rationale of the Commission’s assessment. It may stipulate the level of performance expected for those targets in order to allow the Member State(s) concerned to take the appropriate corrective measures, and/or may contain suggestions for such corrective measures.

5. Within two months after the Commission’s decision, the corrective measures adopted by the Member State(s) concerned shall be communicated to the Commission, together with the elements demonstrating their consistency with the Commission’s decision.
