Article L1614-2 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

The costs corresponding to the exercise of transferred powers are subject to an assessment prior to the transfer of said powers.

Any new burden falling on territorial authorities as a result of the State modifying, by regulation, the rules relating to the exercise of transferred powers is compensated under the conditions provided for in article L. 1614-1. However, this compensation only applies to that part of the cost which is not already compensated by the increase in the general decentralisation grant mentioned in article L. 1614-4.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L1614-2

Les charges correspondant à l’exercice des compétences transférées font l’objet d’une évaluation préalable au transfert desdites compétences.

Toute charge nouvelle incombant aux collectivités territoriales du fait de la modification par l’Etat, par voie réglementaire, des règles relatives à l’exercice des compétences transférées est compensée dans les conditions prévues à l’article L. 1614-1. Toutefois, cette compensation n’intervient que pour la partie de la charge qui n’est pas déjà compensée par l’accroissement de la dotation générale de décentralisation mentionnée à l’article L. 1614-4.
