Poland is the largest beneficiary of funds from the European Union budget. Thus, countless projects that will receive support from these funds are being implemented in our country. In order to obtain funding, you must take part in a competitive, transparent and transparent competition organized by competent institutions. However, they are obliged to reliably assess these applications. Often, in order to be able to assess them, professional knowledge, experience and specific qualifications are required. These are not always owned by qualified clerical staff. For this purpose, based on many years of experience, the legislator in the Act on the rules for the implementation of tasks financed from European funds in the 2021-2027 financial perspective again enabled the competent institutions to use the substantive support of experts. The purpose of this article is to analyze the statutory duties and tasks of experts through the prism of the Act, taking into account the current practice, experience and jurisprudence. The purpose of this article is to analyze the legal solutions regarding the duties and rights of experts in the process of evaluating applications for co-financing from the European Union budget. The article uses the legal - comparative and historical method. On the basis of the conducted research, it should be clearly stated that the essence and basis for the functioning of experts in the application evaluation process have not changed in the new financial perspective. Guarantees of independence have been increased, and transparency in the work of experts has been increased.
