4. Implementation challenges and issues

1. Division of the tasks/duties between MoF and MoH at the beginning of Norway Grants – 2 bodies – cause the lengthening and delay of every procedure (announcing calls, releasing grant agreements)Lesson learned: One PO responsible for the whole implementation due to time reasons

2. Role of the Norwegian Programme Partner – how much the Partner can interfere, what are Partner´s dutiesLesson learned: Clear specification of the Partner´s duties

4. Implementation challenges and issues

3. Blue BookDifferent requirements on the Programmes focus stated in the Blue Book and later on when approving the Programme by Norwegian Partner and FMO.Lesson learned: better and clear specification of Programmes focus right at the beginning

4. Outlook for the future- One Programme Operator with full responsibilites for the whole

Programme- Clearly specified Norwegian Partner´s role and duties- Clearly specified the areas of support by Norway Grants

Areas of support – Czech priority areas- Care for senior, dying citizens, palliative care, long-term ill- Focus on health care more then prevention
