The Provisional Council approved in November

the total cost-base to be apportioned
among the States;
– suppresses the under-utilisation factor;
– includes the loan interest actually paid,
instead of a notional calculation.
 The introduction of standard tables, demonstrating
the reconciliation of the forecast costbase
with the final cost-base and linking the
final cost-base to the Agency’s Annual
Accounts.
