ORGANIZATION SCHEME IN SPAIN
• In the most frequent model, MA and PA are separate
units integrated in the same administrative structure
(Regional Ministry), with similar ranges (General
Direction)
• Other models also used:
– Separate department: the MA is part of the Regional Finance
Ministry and the PA is part of the Regional Agricultural
Ministry
– the MA depends hierarchically from the PA Direction
– One unit accomplish the two tasks
• It´s usual that the MA and/or the direction of the PA keep
direct responsability over the management of some of
the measures of the RDP
Model 1: separate units in the same department
Regional Minister (competent authority)
DG 1: Director of Paying Agency
DG 2: Managing Authority
Model 2: separate units in separate departments
Agriculture Regional Minister
Finance Regional Minister
DG 1: Paying Agency
DG 2: Managing Authority
Model 3: one unit accomplish the two tasks
Agriculture Regional Minister
DG 1:
Paying Agency
+
Managing Authority
Model 4: hierarchical dependence between PA and MA
Agriculture Regional Minister : Director of Paying Agency
DG 1: Managing Authority
