Payment of grants: conditions as to carrying out of the worksN.I.
68.—(1) It is a condition of payment of every grant that the eligible works are carried out within 12 months from—
(a)the date of approval of the application concerned, or
(b)where Article 67 applies (delayed payment of mandatory grant), the date specified in the notification of the Executive's decision,
or in either case, such further period as the Executive may allow.
(2) The Executive may, in particular, allow further time where it is satisfied that the eligible works cannot be, or could not have been, carried out without carrying out other works which could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time the application was made.
(3) In approving an application for a grant the Executive may require as a condition of payment of the grant that the eligible works are carried out in accordance with such specifications as it determines.
(4) The payment of a grant, or part of a grant, is conditional upon—
(a)the eligible works or the corresponding part of the works being executed to the satisfaction of the Executive, and
(b)the Executive being provided with an acceptable invoice, demand or receipt for payment for the works and any preliminary or ancillary services or charges in respect of which the grant or part of the grant is to be paid.
For this purpose an invoice, demand or receipt is acceptable if it satisfies the Executive and is not given by the applicant or a member of his family.
