(2)Taking into account the significant disparities between Member States regarding the level of costs for a particular type of operation, the definition and amounts of standard scales of unit costs and lump sums may differ according to the type of operation and the Member State concerned in order to reflect their specificities.

(3)Bulgaria has submitted methods for defining standard scales of unit costs for reimbursement of expenditure by the Commission.

(4)France, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Romania, Cyprus and Croatia have submitted methods for either, amending existing standard scales of unit costs, or defining additional standard scales of unit costs for reimbursement by the Commission concerning types of operation not yet covered by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2195^note.

(5)For the SSUCs relating to operations supporting education and applicable to all Member States except Denmark, amounts for Greece should be added and the conditions for reimbursement for vocational education and training should be clarified and reduced to reflect specific situations.

(6)Taking into account the objective of expanding the possibilities for Member States to seek reimbursement from the Commission on the basis of standard scales of unit costs or lump sums, the Commission has defined unit costs and amounts for each Member State on the basis of data published by Eurostat and as reported by national Public Employment Services for operations in the area of trainnig.

(7)Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2195 should therefore be amended accordingly,
