The first is a Fixed Fee payment, and the second is a Performance Related Payments (PRP). What are these payments link too? The Fixed Fee payment is link to targets set by the Board. These target come in two forms, a set of quantitative targets, which the Board believes, are realistic for it county, across a few area seen as vital by the ECB. The second area of the Fixed Fee payment is set against a number of key objectives agreed by the board after it has completed an assessment of its activities and consulted with its stakeholders. These key objectives will vary in the time they will take to implement, so the ECB asks the Board to produce a yearly plan out lining what it will have achieved by September 31st each year.
