The following running costs incurred in 2005 (1 January – 31 December) and corresponding to the stipulations of the call for proposals can be included, providing they are reasonable and essential to the good operation of the organisation and of the normal activities provided for in the programme of activities:
ü  Personnel costs
The costs of personnel paid by the organisation submitting the grant application will be based on gross real emoluments or salaries plus social charges and other costs included in the remuneration, to the exclusion of all other expenses. These emoluments or salaries will be in conformity with the good practice in the country concerned.
ü  Rental and associated costs
The cost of rental or depreciation of the building, maintenance, heating, electricity and insurance are calculated based on the principles, rules and accounting methods in effect at the beneficiary organisation.
ü  Equipment [6]
Where fixed assets are purchased, only the annual depreciation can be taken into account.
ü  Telecommunications and post
ü  Office supplies
ü  Travel and accommodation
This item relates to the travel (using the most economic form of transportation) and accommodation costs incurred for the statutory meetings of the organisation, as well as any other working meetings necessary for the normal operation of the organisation. This does not include costs linked directly to any one-off activity of the organisation.

This item relates to the costs incurred for the organisation of the statutory meetings as well as any other working meetings necessary for the normal operation of the organisation (only the costs not covered by the other budget headings). This does not include costs linked directly to any one-off activity of the organisation.

These costs may include the costs of the organisation's regular publications and information activities, insofar as these are not included under another budget heading. Please give, for each publication, an estimate of the number of pages and planned circulation, the frequency, an indication of the production costs per copy, any translation expenses, as well as an estimate of the dissemination costs (if not included under the item 'Telecommunications and post').
