Since the beginning of the avian flu crisis, consumption of poultry and
eggs had fallen dramatically in some European Union (EU) Member States,
leading to a sharp reduction in prices (see GAIN Report E36038 and
E36055). On April 25, 2006, the European Agricultural Ministers approved
a European Commission proposal for EC financial aid for the European
poultry and egg sector (see GAIN Report E36070). The measure, Council
Regulation 679/2006, is intended to counter balance the negative market
impact of the avian flu crisis in the EU. On July 3, 2006, the details
of the market support measures were laid down in Commission Regulation
1010/2006 and published in the Official Journal of the European
Commission (see GAIN Report E36106). The Regulation describes the
maximum levels of compensation for destruction and depopulation. The
Commission Regulation can be downloaded from the website:

<http://europa.eu.int/eur-lex/lex/JOIndex.do?ihmlang=en>, Official
Journal L180.

On July 12, 2006, the EC amended the Annexes in Regulation 1010/2006.
These amended Annexes (attached to this report), were made public on
August 2, but have not been published in the Official Journal of the EC
up to this date. Regulation 1010/2006 describes the maximum levels of
compensation for destruction and depopulation (see Table 1 and Annexes
I - VII). From these figures, the maximum financial aid for destruction
and depopulation and the maximum financial aid per Member State are
calculated (see Table 2 and 3).

In most Member States, the support will be co-financed by the
governments on a 50-50 percent basis, putting in half of the support.
The EC reportedly calculated the maximum level of support at about Euro
75 million. The Member States need to send in a proposal for receiving
the subsidies. The subsidies will be transferred to the Member States
before December 31, 2006. The sector expects, however, that at most only
about half of this amount will be allocated. This is due to restrictions
laid down in Regulation 1010/2006, in particular the requirement that
sets the minimum time span for advancing the slaughtering of the
breeding flock at least six weeks before the standard date of
slaughtering (Article 4 of 1010/2006). Most support is reserved for the
destruction of hatching eggs and breeding birds (see Table 2b), Euro
33.1 million and Euro 32.3 million, respectively. The highest Member
State budget is reserved for the French poultry and eggs sector, namely
Euro 27.9 million. The following Member States will not receive any
financial aid through Regulation 1010/2006: the United Kingdom,
Luxembourg, Sweden, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia and Malta.
