🇬🇧 English

This decision gives several senior staff in the communication directorate the power to sign budget, procurement, and public spending documents on behalf of the relevant ministers. It sets spending limits for each person, ranging from under EUR 5,000 to under EUR 1,000,000 excluding tax, and includes contract changes, purchase orders, and proof that a service was delivered. For businesses and vendors dealing with the directorate, this mainly changes who can approve and sign documents. It does not create a new policy or funding program, but it does speed up internal approval by letting named officials handle routine and mid-sized spending within their assigned limits. The earlier delegation from 30 September 2025 is revoked.
