The centre’s draft budget is prepared by the director, who sends it simultaneously to the region and to the rector of the academic region. It must be put to the vote of the Board of Directors and adopted in real balance within thirty days of notification of the region’s contribution.
Without prejudice to the control of legality exercised by the representative of the State, the budget becomes enforceable within thirty days of the date of receipt by each of the two authorities mentioned in the first paragraph, unless the region or the rector of the academic region has made known its reasoned disagreement. In this case, or if the budget is not adopted within thirty days of notification of the region’s participation, the procedure provided for in e and f of article L. 421-11 of the Education Code shall be applied, subject to the second paragraph of article L. 114-13 of this Code.
As soon as the budget has been adopted or settled, it is sent to the accounting officer.
