Checks for the scheme of authorisations for vine plantings
For the purposes of verifying compliance with the rules set out in Chapter III of Title I of Part II of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, Chapter II of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/273 and Chapter II of this Regulation, Member States shall make use of the vineyard register referred to in Article 145 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.
Verification of the information in the vineyard register
1. Member States shall make available the data in the vineyard register for the purposes of monitoring and verifying the measures financed under the national support programme referred to in Section 4 of Chapter II of Title I of Part II of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 to which they relate. 2. As regards areas planted with vines, at least the following checks shall be carried out in order to maintain an updated vineyard register: (a) administrative checks applied to all wine growers identified in the vineyard register who: (i) have activated an authorisation of planting or replanting or made a registration or a modification of data in the vineyard register following an application or a notification submitted concerning the scheme of authorisations for vine plantings; (ii) submit an application for the measures ‘restructuring and conversion of vineyards’ or ‘green harvesting’ under a national support programme referred to in Articles 46 and 47 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013; (iii) submit one of the declarations referred to in Articles 31, 32 and 33 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/273. (b) annual on-the-spot checks on at least 5 % of all wine growers identified in the vineyard register. Where the wine growers selected for the sample are subject in the same year to on-the-spot checks in the framework of the measures referred to in point (a)(i) and (ii), such on-the-spot checks shall be counted for reaching the 5 % yearly threshold without the need to repeat them. (c) systematic on-the-spot checks shall be carried out in areas planted with vines which are not included in any wine grower file as laid down in Annex IV to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/273.
Checks concerning the declarations
As regards the declarations referred to in Articles 31 to 34 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/273, Member States shall carry out any checks and take any measures necessary to ensure the accuracy of those declarations.
