Art. 16 Legge federale del 5 ottobre 1990 sugli aiuti finanziari e le indennità (LSu) - Forma giuridica
LSu; Capitolo 3: Disposizioni generali per gli aiuti finanziari e le indennità
Art. 16 LSu · Forma giuridica
Gli aiuti finanziari e le indennità sono di regola concessi mediante decisione formale.
Un contratto di diritto pubblico può essere concluso qualora: a. l’autorità competente disponga di un ampio margine di discrezionalità; oppure b. occorra escludere che, nel caso di aiuti finanziari, il beneficiario rinunci unilateralmente all’esecuzione del compito.
Gli aiuti finanziari e le indennità sono di regola concessi ai Cantoni sulla base di accordi di programma.
Le prestazioni destinate a un gran numero di beneficiari possono essere concesse senza decisione o contratto formali.
Per la reiezione di domande è sempre necessaria una decisione formale.
