Article 4
Poland shall carry out administrative and on-the-spot checks in accordance with Articles 59 and 60 of Regulation (EU) 2021/2116 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 37 ) . In particular, Poland shall verify: (a) the eligibility of the applicant submitting the request for support; (b) for each eligible applicant: the eligibility, the quantity and the value of the actual loss of production; (c) that funding has not been received by any eligible applicant from any other sources to compensate the losses referred to in Article 2 of this Regulation. Aid can be paid to eligible applicants whose administrative checks are completed, without waiting for all the on-the-spot checks to be performed on selected applicants. Nevertheless, all on-the-spot checks shall be made not later than six months after the payments. In cases where the eligibility of an applicant is not confirmed, the aid shall be recovered and sanctions applied in accordance with Article 59(1) of Regulation (EU) 2021/2116.
