It was supplemented by additional information provided in accordance with Article 8(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013. That application complies with the requirements for determining a financial contribution from the EGF as laid down in Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013.\n(4)\nThe EGF should, therefore, be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution of EUR 1 192 500 in respect of the application submitted by the Netherlands.\n(5)\nIn order to minimise the time taken to mobilise the EGF, this decision should apply from the date of its adoption,\nHAVE ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
