The requirement that expenditure is to be effected in accordance with the applicable governance systems, laid down in Article 37(1), point (b)(ii), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2116, is controlled by the paying agencies, and afterwards verified by certification bodies on an annual basis, and by the Commission in the form of reviews of the certification body’s opinions and reports and as a part of follows up on the findings, as well as during conformity procedures referred to in Article 55 of that Regulation. Those procedures provide the necessary assurance that realised outputs are achieved in compliance with Union law. Together with the biennial performance review referred to in Article 135 of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, those procedures also ensure that Member States achieve the milestones and targets referred to in Article 109(1), point (a), of that Regulation, set by them as a part of their performance systems in the CAP Strategic Plans. Article 54 of Regulation (EU) 2021/2116 should therefore be deleted.
