PF: Does the limitation of the Grant Agreement suspension to 30% of the total project duration include the periods of suspension covered by the Long-term leave allowance (maternity, paternity, etc.)?

In principle, suspensions of a fellowship, other than for long-term leave, may NOT exceed 30% of the duration of the action. So, the long-term leave does not count within the 30% maximum duration of suspension.

PF: If the duration of a leave is less than 30 days, agrant suspension is not necessary. But is it still possible to ask for a suspension?

It is, of course, possible to suspend the project for a period shorter than 30 days, but it will not be covered by the Long-term leave allowance.
