30The first condition covers not only breaches of a provision of EU law as such, but also breaches of the provisions of national law which are applicable to operations supported by the Structural Funds of the European Union and thus contribute to ensuring the correct application of EU law relating to the management of projects financed by those funds. Thus, under Article 60(a) of Regulation No 1083/2006, it is the responsibility of the managing authority to ensure that operations selected for funding comply with applicable EU and national rules for the whole of their implementation period (see, to that effect, judgment of 1 October 2020, Elme Messer Metalurgs, C‑743/18, EU:C:2020:767, paragraphs 52 and 53 and the case-law cited).
