EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

1.           CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL

The accession of Croatia to the EU is scheduled for 1 July 2013. Although the Act of Accession[1]
has not yet been ratified by all Member States, the Commission has recently
updated its Multi-Annual Financial Framework proposals[2]
in view of Croatia's accession. A similar adjustment exercise should be
prepared for the CAP reform proposals to ensure that once they are adopted, Croatia will be fully covered as a new Member State.

The adoption of Regulation
(EU) No 671/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 July 2012 amending Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 as regards the application of direct payments to farmers in respect of the year 2013[3]
provides for voluntary adjustment for the United Kingdom whereby funds for
direct payments for calendar year 2013 would be made available for the next
rural development programming period. As a consequence a relevant provision to
allow transfer of the funds to the EAFRD should be made in the CAP reform proposal
for rural development.

2.           RESULTS OF CONSULTATIONS WITH THE
INTERESTED PARTIES AND IMPACT ASSESSMENTS

There was no need for consultation of interested parties or an
impact assessment since these adjustments follow, in relation to Croatia, from the Act of Accession and, in relation to the voluntary adjustment for the United Kingdom, from the adoption of Regulation (EU) No 671/2012.

3.           LEGAL ELEMENTS OF THE PROPOSAL

The adjustment will take the
form of an amendment to the proposal
COM(2011) 627 final/3 for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on support for rural development by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) in order to:

- introduce a temporary
additional measure on financing complementary national direct payments,

- provide for specific
conditions applicable to Croatia in relation to LEADER (minimum EAFRD
contribution reserved for LEADER of 2.5% instead 5%) and investments for the implementation of Council Directive 91/676/EEC[4]
for a maximum period of four years (provision of a support rate of 75%),

- introduction of an
empowerment to the Commission to adopt transitional rules for the transition of
  Croatia from support under IPARD to support under the new Rural Development
regime, also covering the ex-post evaluation.

In relation to
voluntary adjustment for the UK the adjustment consists in introducing a
reference to the amounts to be transferred in application of the relevant
provisions of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009.[5]

4.           BUDGETARY IMPLICATION

This amendment
has no budgetary implications, apart from those already set out in the
explanatory memorandum for the updated proposals for the Multi-Annual Financial
Framework.

replaced by the following:

"5. In addition to the
amounts referred to in paragraph 4, the implementing act referred to in the
same paragraph shall also include the funds transferred to the EAFRD in
application of Articles 7(2) and 14(1) of Regulation (EU No DP/2012 and the
funds transferred to the EAFRD in application of Articles 10b and 136 of Council
Regulation (EC) No 73/2009* in respect of calendar year 2013.

- OJ L 30, 31.1.2009, p.16."

(4)        In
Article 65, paragraph 5 is replaced by the following:

"5. At least 5%, and in the case of Croatia 2,5%, of the total EAFRD contribution to the rural development programme shall be
reserved for LEADER."

(5)          Article 95 is replaced by the
following:

"Article 95

approved by the Commission under Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 may be integrated
into support provided for under this Regulation, including for technical
assistance and for the ex-post evaluations. Those delegated acts may also
provide conditions for the transition from rural development support for Croatia under Regulation (EC) No 1085/2006 to support provided for under this Regulation."

(6)          In Annex I the fourth row is
replaced by the following:

1.3.        Nature
of the proposal/initiative (Legislative framework for the CAP post 2013)

x The proposal/initiative relates to a new action

 ̈ The
proposal/initiative relates to a new action following a pilot
project/preparatory action[7]

redirected towards a new action

1.4.        Objectives

1.4.1.     The
Commission's multiannual strategic objective(s) targeted by the
proposal/initiative

In order to promote resource efficiency with a view to smart,
sustainable and inclusive growth for EU agriculture and rural development in
line with the Europe 2020 Strategy, the objectives of the CAP are:

- Viable food production;

- Sustainable management of natural resources and climate action;

- Balanced territorial development.

1.4.3.     Expected
result(s) and impact

It is not possible to set quantitative targets for impact indicators
at this stage. Although the policy can steer in a certain direction, the broad
economic, environmental and social outcomes measured by such indicators would
ultimately also depend on the impact from a range of external factors, which
recent experience indicates have become significant and unpredictable. Further
analysis is on-going, to be ready for the period post-2013.

As regards the direct payments, Member States will have the
possibility to decide, to a limited degree, on the implementation of certain
components of the direct payment schemes.

For rural development, the expected results and impact will depend
on the rural development programmes that Member States will submit to the
Commission. Member States will be asked to set targets in their programmes.

1.4.4.     Indicators
of results and impact

The proposals provide
for the establishment of a common monitoring and evaluation framework with a
view to measuring the performance of the Common Agricultural Policy. That
framework shall include all instruments related to the monitoring and
evaluation of CAP measures and in particular of the direct payments, market
measures, rural development measures and of the application of cross
compliance.

The impact of these
CAP measures shall be measured in relation to the following objectives:

(a)      viable food production, with a focus on agricultural
income, agricultural productivity and price stability;

(b)     sustainable management of natural resources and climate
action, with a focus on greenhouse gas emissions, biodiversity, soil and water;

(c)      balanced territorial development, with a focus on rural
employment, growth and poverty in rural areas.

By means of
implementing acts, the Commission shall define the set of indicators specific
to these objectives and areas.

Moreover, as regards
rural development, a reinforced common monitoring and evaluation system is
proposed. That system aims (a) to demonstrate the progress and achievements of
rural development policy and assess the impact, effectiveness, efficiency and
relevance of rural development policy interventions, (b)     to contribute to
better targeted support for rural development, and (c) to support a common
learning process related to monitoring and evaluation. The Commission will
establish, by means of implementing act, a list of common indicators linked to
the policy priorities.

1.5.        Grounds
for the proposal/initiative

1.5.1.     Requirement(s)
to be met in the short or long term

In order to meet the multi-annual strategic objectives of the CAP
which are a direct translation of the Europe 2020 strategy for European rural
areas and to fulfil the relevant requirements of the Treaty, the proposals, as
amended to take account of the Accession of Croatia, aim to lay down the
legislative framework for the Common Agricultural Policy for the period after
2013.

1.5.2.     Added
value of EU involvement

The future CAP will not only be a policy that caters for a small,
albeit essential, part of the EU economy, but also a policy of strategic
importance for food security, the environment and territorial balance. Thus,
the CAP, as a truly common policy, makes the most efficient use of limited
budgetary resources in maintaining a sustainable agriculture throughout the EU,
addressing important cross-border issues such as climate change and reinforcing
solidarity among Member States.

As mentioned in the Commission communication "A Budget for
Europe 2020"[8], the CAP is a genuinely
European policy. Instead of operating 28 separate agricultural policies and
budgets, Member States pool resources to operate a single European policy with
a single European budget. This naturally means that the CAP accounts for a
significant proportion of the EU budget. However, this approach is both more
efficient and economical than an uncoordinated national approach.

1.5.3.     Lessons
learned from similar experiences in the past

On the basis of the evaluation of the current policy framework, an
extensive consultation with stakeholders as well as an analysis of future
challenges and needs, a comprehensive impact assessment has been carried out.
More details can be found in the impact assessment and the explanatory
memorandum that are accompanying the legal proposals.

1.5.4.     Coherence
and possible synergy with other relevant instruments

The legislative proposals concerned by this financial statement
should be seen in the broader context of the proposal for a single framework
regulation with common rules for the common strategic framework funds (EAFRD,
ERDF, ESF, Cohesion Fund and EMFF). That framework regulation will make an
important contribution to reducing administrative burden, to spending EU funds
in an effective way, and to put simplification into practice. This also underpins
the new concepts of the common strategic framework for all these funds and the
upcoming Partnership Contracts which will also cover these funds.

The common strategic framework, which will be established, will
translate the objectives and priorities of the Europe 2020 Strategy into
priorities for the EAFRD together with the ERDF, ESF, Cohesion Fund and EMFF,
which will ensure an integrated use of the funds to deliver common objectives.

The common strategic framework will also set out coordination mechanisms
with other relevant Union policies and instruments.

Moreover, as regards the CAP, significant synergies and
simplification effects will be obtained by harmonising and aligning the
management and control rules for the first (EAGF) and second (EAFRD) pillar of
the CAP. The strong link between the EAGF and the EAFRD should be maintained
and the structures already in place in the Member States be sustained.

1.6.        Duration
and financial impact

x Proposal/initiative of limited
duration (for the draft regulations on direct payment schemes, rural
development and transitional regulations)

–
x   Proposal/initiative in effect from
01/01/2014 to 31/12/2020

–
x   Financial impact for the period of the next
multi-annual financial framework. For rural development, impact on payments to
2023.

x Proposal/initiative of unlimited
duration (for the draft regulation on the single CMO and the horizontal
regulation)

–
Implementation from 2014.

1.7.        Management
mode(s) envisaged[9]

x Centralised direct management
by the Commission

 ̈ Centralised indirect management with the delegation of implementation tasks to:

–
 ̈  executive agencies

–
 ̈  bodies set up by the Communities[10]

–
 ̈  national public-sector bodies/bodies with public-service mission

–
 ̈  persons entrusted with the implementation of specific actions
pursuant to Title V of the Treaty on European Union and identified in the
relevant basic act within the meaning of Article 49 of the Financial Regulation

x Shared management with the
Member States

 ̈ Decentralised management with third countries

 ̈ Joint management with international organisations (to be specified)

Comments

No
substantive change compared to the present situation, i.e. the bulk of
expenditure concerned by the legislative proposals on the CAP reform will be
managed by shared management with the Member States. However, a very minor part
will continue to fall under centralised direct management by the Commission.

2.           MANAGEMENT
MEASURES

2.1.        Monitoring
and reporting rules

In terms of monitoring and evaluation of the CAP, the Commission
will present a report to the European Parliament and the Council every 4 years,
with the first report to be presented not later than end 2017.

This is complemented by specific provisions in all areas of the CAP,
with various comprehensive reporting and notifications requirements to be
specified in the implementing rules.

As regards rural development, rules are also provided for monitoring
at programme level, which will be aligned with the other funds, and which will
be coupled with ex ante, on-going and ex post evaluations.

2.2.        Management
and control system

2.2.1.     Risk(s)
identified

There are more than seven million beneficiaries of the CAP,
receiving support under a large variety of different aid schemes, each of which
having detailed and sometimes complex eligibility criteria.

The reduction in the error rate in the domain of the common
agricultural policy can already be considered as a trend. Thus, most recently
an error rate close to 2% confirms the overall positive assessment of previous
years. It is the intention to continue the efforts in order to achieve an error
rate below 2%.

2.2.2.     Control
method(s) envisaged

The legislative package, in particular the proposal for the
regulation on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural
policy, envisages maintaining and reinforcing the current system established by
Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005. It provides for a compulsory administrative
structure at Member State level, centred around accredited paying agencies,
which are responsible for carrying out controls at final beneficiary level in
accordance with the principles set out under point 2.3. Every year, the head of
each paying agency is required to provide a statement of assurance which covers
the completeness, accuracy and veracity of the accounts, the proper functioning
of the internal control systems and the legality and regularity of the
underlying transactions. An independent audit body is required to provide an
opinion on all these three elements.

The Commission will continue to audit agricultural expenditure,
using a risk-based approach in order to ensure that its audits are targeted to
the areas of highest risk. Where these audits reveal that expenditure has been
incurred in breach of Union rules, it will exclude the amounts concerned from Union financing under the conformity clearance system.

As regards the cost of controls, a detailed analysis is provided in
annex 8 to the impact assessment accompanying the legislative proposals.

Furthermore the publication of information on the beneficiaries of
the EAGF and EAFRD will reinforce the public control of the use of the money
and contribute to the visibility and better understanding of the CAP.

2.3.        Measures
to prevent fraud and irregularities

The legislative package, in particular the proposal for the
regulation on the financing, management and monitoring of the common
agricultural policy, envisages maintaining and reinforcing the current detailed
systems for controls and penalties to be applied by the paying agencies, with common
basis features and special rules tailored to the specificities of each aid
regime. The systems generally provide for exhaustive administrative controls of
100% of the aid applications, cross-checks with other databases where this is
considered appropriate as well as pre-payment on-the-spot checks of a minimum
number of transactions, depending on the risk associated with the regime in
question. If these on-the-spot checks reveal a high number of irregularities,
additional checks must be carried out. In this context, the by far most
important system is the Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS),
which in financial year 2010 covered around 80% of total expenditure under the
EAGF and the EAFRD. For Member States with properly functioning control systems
and low error rates, the Commission will be empowered to allow for a reduction
of the number of on-the-spot checks.

The package further envisages that Member States shall prevent,
detect and correct irregularities and fraud, impose effective, dissuasive and
proportionate penalties as laid down in Union legislation or national law, and
recover any irregular payments plus interests. It includes an automatic
clearance mechanism for irregularity cases, which provides that if recovery has
not taken place within four years of the date of the recovery request, or
within eight years in the case of legal proceedings, the amounts not recovered
shall be borne by the Member State concerned. This mechanism will be a strong
incentive for Member States to recover irregular payments as quickly as
possible.

3.           ESTIMATED
FINANCIAL IMPACT OF THE PROPOSAL/INITIATIVE

The amounts indicated in this financial
statement are expressed in current prices and in commitments.

In addition to the changes resulting from the
legislative proposals as listed in the accompanying tables below, the
legislative proposals imply further changes which have no financial impact.

For any of the years in the period 2014-2020,
the application of financial discipline cannot be excluded at this stage.
However, this will not depend on the reform proposals as such, but on other
factors, such as the execution of direct aids or future developments in the
agricultural markets.

As concerns direct aids, the extended net
ceilings for 2014 (calendar year 2013) included in the Commission proposal
regarding the application of direct payments in the transitional year 2013
(COM(2011)630)[11] are higher than the
amounts allocated to direct aids indicated in the accompanying tables. The
purpose of this extension is to ensure a continuation of the existing
legislation in a scenario in which all the other elements would remain
unchanged, without prejudice to the possible need for applying the financial
discipline mechanism.

The reform proposals contain provisions giving
Member States a set degree of flexibility in relation to their allocation of
direct aids respectively rural development. In case Member States decide to use
that flexibility, this will have financial consequences within the given
financial amounts, which cannot be quantified at this stage.

The reform proposal for direct payments
contains a provision on progressive reduction and capping of direct payments.
The product of capping, to be transferred to rural development, has been
estimated in order to determine the net ceilings of direct payments (Annex III
of the proposal). This estimation was based on assumptions as concerns the
implementation of direct payments by Member States and will therefore be
revised once Member States have notified their decisions on the implementation.
Moreover, for Croatia, it is not possible to estimate the product of capping at
this stage due to unavailability of data. A first rough estimate, based on
preliminary information, showed that the product of capping would be null for Croatia. It will be revised once data are available.

This financial statement does not take into
account the possible use of the crises reserve. It should be underlined that
the amounts taken into account for market-related expenditure are based on no public
intervention buying-in and other measures related to a crisis situation in any
sectors.

"unspent amounts" will cease to apply by the end of 2013.

(2)           The amounts
relate to the proposed annual ceiling for the first pillar. However, it should
also be noted that it is proposed to move negative expenditure from accounting
clearance (currently under budget item 05 07 01 06) to assigned revenue (under
item 67 03). For details, see estimated revenue table on the page below.

(3)           The 2013 figures include the amounts for
veterinary and phytosanitary measures as well as market measures for the
fisheries sector.

(4)           The amounts in
the table above are in line with those in the Commission communication "A
Budget for Europe 2020" (COM(2011)500 of 29 June 2011) and the
Commission's amended proposal for the MFF 2014-2020 (COM(2012)388 of 6 July
2012). However, it remains to be decided if the MFF will reflect the transfer
that is proposed for the envelope of one Member State of the cotton national
restructuring programme to rural development as from 2014, implying an
adjustment (4 million EUR per year) of the amounts for respectively the EAGF
sub-ceiling and for pillar 2. In the tables in the sections below, the amounts
have been transferred, irrespective of them being reflected in the MFF.

(5)           It includes the
maximum amounts of the special reserve for de-mining for Croatia.

(6)           In accordance
with the Commission communication "A Budget for Europe 2020"
(COM(2011)500 final), a total amount of up to 2.5 billion EUR in 2011 prices
will be available under the European Globalisation Fund for providing
additional support to farmers suffering from effects of globalisation. In the
table above, the breakdown by year in current prices is only indicative.
The proposal for the inter-institutional agreement between the European
Parliament, the Council and the Commission on cooperation in budgetary matters
and on sound financial management (COM(2011)403 final of 29 June 2011) sets
out, for the EGF, an overall maximum annual amount of 429 million EUR in 2011
prices.

proposals of 12 October 2011.

(2)           For 2013, preliminary
estimate based on Draft Budget 2012 taking into account legal adjustments
already agreed for 2013 (e.g. wine ceiling, abolition of potato starch premium,
dried fodder) as well as some foreseen developments. For all years, the
estimates assume that there will be no additional financing need for support
measures due to market disturbances or crises.

(3)           The 2013 amount includes an
estimate of wine grubbing-up 2012. The amounts for 2014-2020, shown in Table 2,
do not include the special reserve for de-mining for Croatia, whereas the
corresponding amounts, shown in Table 1 include the special reserve.

(4)           The product of capping was estimated
based on assumptions as concerns the implementation of direct payments by
Member States and will therefore be revised once they have notified their
decisions on the implementation. Moreover, for Croatia, it is not possible to
estimate the product of capping at this stage due to unavailability of data. A
first rough estimate, based on preliminary information, showed that the product
of capping would be null for Croatia. It will be revised once data are
available.

(5)           The change compared to 2013
is solely due to the proposed transfer of the cotton national envelope to rural
development (4 million EUR per year). In addition, the updated MFF proposals
(COM(2012)388) foresee an additional amount of 333 million EUR per year.

(1)           The 2013 needs are estimated
based on the Commission's Draft Budget 2012, except for (a) the fruit & vegetables
sectors where the needs are based on the financial statement of the respective
reforms and (b) any legal changes already agreed.

(2)           The
2013 amount corresponds to the ceiling set by Regulation (EU) No 121/2012  . As
from 2014, the measure will be financed within Heading 1.

(3)           The envelope for the cotton
restructuring programme for Greece (4 million EUR/year) will be transferred to
rural development as from 2014. The envelope for Spain (6.1 million EUR/year)
will go to the Single Payment Scheme as from 2018 (already decided).

(5)           In addition to expenditure
within chapters 05 02 and 05 03, it is anticipated that direct expenditure
within chapters 05 01, 05 07 and 05 08 will be financed by revenue that will be
assigned to the EAGF.

year) of the amounts for respectively the EAGF sub-ceiling and for pillar 2. In
table 8 above, the amounts have been transferred, irrespective of them being
reflected in the MFF.

(3)           The product of capping was estimated
based on assumptions as concerns the implementation of direct payments by
Member States and will therefore be revised once they have notified their
decisions on the implementation. Moreover, for Croatia, it is not possible to
estimate the product of capping at this stage due to unavailability of data. A
first rough estimate, based on preliminary information, showed that the product
of capping would be null for Croatia. It will be revised once data are
available.

(4)           The
2013 amount for technical assistance was fixed based on the initial rural
development envelope (transfers from pillar 1 not included).

Technical assistance for 2014-2020 is fixed at 0.25%
of the total rural development envelope.

(5)           Covered
by the amount available for technical assistance.
