Approval of the training course may be withdrawn after three months’ notice on the grounds of the results of checks carried out by the bodies or departments responsible for carrying out administrative, financial or technical inspections.

The State public establishment to which the management of remuneration may be entrusted, in application of article L. 6341-6, is a public administrative establishment.
