Objections
The period within which an applicant can object is 6 weeks after the day on which the decision was announced. Once this period has expired, it is no longer possible to submit an objection.
If you have requested further reasoning for the advisory committee’s advice and have not yet received it, you must still submit a notice of objection within 6 weeks of the rejection letter, so that the objection period does not expire. You can do this by sending a short letter or email (stating your application number) to the Mondriaan Fund in which you indicate that you are considering submitting an objection (this is also known as a pro forma objection). After you have received further reasoning for the advice from us, the Mondriaan Fund will set a new deadline to give reason to the objection in writing.
No, the objection procedure is not intended to supplement, rewrite or further explain the application. Such information will not be taken into consideration when assessing your objection.
No. Because it is not possible to send a publication with the application, it is also not possible to send a publication with the notice of objection. The objection procedure is not intended to supplement the application.
Information from after the application date cannot be included in the objection procedure. Such information will not be taken into consideration when assessing the objection.
No. The Mondriaan Fund is guided by its own experts when assessing applications. Third-party valuation generally takes place in a different context than an assessment of an application based on the Mondriaan Fund regulations. In addition, it is quite possible that experts have different opinions.
