Article 43
1. Any payment, whether made as a single payment or as a series of related payments, need not be taken into account in the report if it is below EUR 100 000 within a financial year. 2. The report shall disclose the following information in relation to activities as described in points (1) and (2) of Article 41 in respect of the relevant financial year: (a) the total amount of payments made to each government; (b) the total amount per type of payment as specified in points (5)(a) to (g) of Article 41 made to each government; (c) where those payments have been attributed to a specific project, the total amount per type of payment as specified in point (5)(a) to (g) of Article 41, made for each such project and the total amount of payments for each such project. Payments made by the undertaking in respect of obligations imposed at entity level may be disclosed at the entity level rather than at project level. 3. Where payments in kind are made to a government, they shall be reported in value and, where applicable, in volume. Supporting notes shall be provided to explain how their value has been determined. 4. The disclosure of the payments referred to in this Article shall reflect the substance, rather than the form, of the payment or activity concerned. Payments and activities may not be artificially split or aggregated to avoid the application of this Directive. 5. In the case of those Member States which have not adopted the euro, the euro threshold identified in paragraph 1 shall be converted into national currency by: (a) applying the exchange rate published in the Official Journal of the European Union as at the date of the entry into force of any Directive fixing that threshold, and (b) rounding to the nearest hundred.
