THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 laying down common provisions on the European Regional Development Fund, the European Social Fund, the Cohesion Fund, the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development and the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund and laying down general provisions on the European Regional Development Fund, the European Social Fund, the Cohesion Fund and the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006(1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 61(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) In accordance with Article 61 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 revenues generated by operations are to be taken into account when the public contribution is calculated.

(2) Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 provides for the application of flat-rate revenue percentages to operations in the sector of research, development and innovation without calculating the discounted net revenue.
