While the RDP Regulation provides for a structure according to measures and sub-measures, the annual breakdown is made at aggregate level and is not formally subdivided down to measure/sub-measure level or scheme level. Essentially, any unspent EAFRD funds in a year are carried forward to subsequent years.
