One of the features of the European Union’s funds redistribution, based on multiannual financial perspectives, is modification of legal and organisational frameworks related to the principles for transferring support to beneficiaries at the turn of subsequent perspectives. This may result in delays in funds distribution. Currently, this is the case of funds designated for enterprise development which is the focus of the article. The basic provisions that regulate transfer of money at the EU level were published only a few days before the new financial perspective started. While the basic provisions at the national level came into force after several months since the beginning of the eligibility period. Consequently, executory provisions and individual programmes are being developed only now.
