Andalusia cancels aid for freelancers and professionals

La crisis, settled for years in Andalusia, has also reached the aid that the Board distributed among the self-employed and professionals with the intention of encouraging economic activity in the region. Has been the Ministry of Economy, Innovation, Science and Employment which has just closed the existing aid for freelancers, businessmen and professional associations.

The grants have been canceled by direct order of the Director Antonio Ávila and have focused on suspension of two types of subsidies that were awarded automatically every January. The first of the grants was exclusively for SMEs and freelancers who developed actions around the prevention of occupational hazards.

The second type of aid that has been left without effect are those that were granted to professional associations for the promotion of economic activity. They were non-refundable grants ranging from 1.500 to 18.000 euros depending on the type of aid.

The suspension of aid has occurred after have been published in the Official Gazette of the Junta de Andalucía, although all previous grants that are being awarded will continue to be effective. Until new order those grants will be canceled although from the Junta de Andalucía it has been reported that when the economic situation improves it will be very possible that these subsidies will be recovered.

Although they will continue to be given grants to SMEs already autonomous the rules that will be followed from now on will be much more restrictive so the conditions that will have to be met the natural and legal persons who access the aid will be much greater. On the other hand, the subsidies will also have to comply with the European standards that regulate these aids.
