The Commission shall timely inform the Managing Authority whenever there is a risk of de-commitment pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation (EU) No 236/2014.

On the basis of information received as of 15 February, the Commission shall inform the Managing Authority of the amount of the de-commitment resulting from that information.

The Managing Authority shall have two months to agree to the amount to be de-committed or to submit its observations.

By 30 June, the Managing Authority shall submit a revised financial plan to the Commission reflecting the impact of the reduced amount of support on the thematic objectives or technical assistance of the programme for the financial year concerned. Failing such a submission, the Commission shall revise the financial plan by reducing the Union contribution for the financial year concerned. The reduction shall affect the thematic objectives and technical assistance proportionately.

The Commission shall amend the decision adopting the programme.
