5.0 EU State Aid requirements
5.1: Any Local Restrictions Support Grant is given as aid under the Temporary Framework for State aid measures to support the economy in the current COVID-19 outbreak published on 19 March 2020. This means that businesses receiving support under these provisions can receive up to €800,000 in aid over three years (being the current and the previous two years).
5.2: Any grant awarded is required to comply with the EU law on State Aid. This will involve the applicant declaring to the Council if they have received any other de minimis State aid or aid provided under the EU Commission COVID-19 Temporary Framework.
5.3: If the applicant has not received any other de minimis State aid, they are not required to make that declaration to the Council or to complete any declaration statement.
