What am I required to do when the EROs come into effect?
To avail of the Staff Funding Additional Contribution, eligible Partner Services must submit an Application Change between the 13 to the 19 October 2025 and input a Change Effective Date from the 13/10/2025 in the “Staff Member and/or Capacity Change Effective Date” field, when submitting their Application Change.
This must be completed in the required timeframe above in order to generate their allocation value for the Staff Funding Additional Contribution for the 2025/2026 Core Funding Programme Year.
Any increase in the Staff Funding Additional Contribution will be effective from the Application Change submission date or the change effective date, whichever is the later. Therefore, to ensure a service is allocated the maximum funding available, it is important that Partner Service submit the Application Change within the required timeframe above, as any delay will result in the increase occurring later than the ERO effective date. Backdating will not be permitted.
What Review should Partner Services carry out to ensure Grant
Values are correct during an application change, before submitting?
It is important that on the summary page of your Core Funding application, before submitting your Application Change, that you review the information submitted as part of your Application Change and review the grant values associated with the Staff Funding Additional Contribution.
