THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on the Maritime and Fisheries Fund and repealing Council Regulations (EC) No 2328/2003, (EC) No 861/2006, (EC) No 1198/2006 and (EC) No 791/2007 and Regulation (EU) No 1255/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council, and in particular Article 107(3) thereof,

(1) Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council lays down common provisions on the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), the European Social Fund (ESF), the Cohesion Fund, the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) and the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF). That Regulation requires the Member States' managing authorities to establish a system to record and store, in computerised form, data on each operation necessary for monitoring, evaluation, financial management, verification and audit, including data on individual operations.

(2) Annex III to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 480/2014 lists the data to be recorded and stored in computerised form for each operation within the monitoring system established by each Member State.

(3) Additional rules on data recording and transmission are needed for the functioning of the common monitoring and evaluation system provided for by Article 107 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014. In accordance with Article 107(3) of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, those rules should specify the information to be sent by Member States, whilst seeking the greatest synergies with other potential data sources such as the list of data to be recorded and stored as required by Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013.

(4) In order to allow for the prompt application of the measures provided for in this Regulation, this Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund,
