B.

calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden:

In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL), Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution.

Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany:

Germany's theoretical VAT contribution = (Germany's capped VAT base / (EU capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)) × 1/4 × United Kingdom correction

Example: Germany

Germany's theoretical VAT contribution = 9 919 942 000 / (53 473 109 000 – 9 693 423 000 ) × 1/4 × 5 251 202 631 = 297 464 591

calculation of the frozen rate:

Frozen rate = (UK correction – theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)) / (EU capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D + NL + A + S))

Frozen rate = 5 251 202 631 – (297 464 591 + 76 765 475 + 34 259 575 + 39 897 761 )) / (53 473 109 000 – (9 693 423 000 + 9 919 942 000 + 2 559 999 000 + 1 142 499 000 + 1 330 523 000 ))

Frozen rate = 0,166609823430018 %

Uniform rate

0,5 % – 0,166609823430018 % = 0,333390176569982 %

TITLE 08

RESEARCH

Overall objectives

The Commission's policy initiatives to achieve the European Research Area are devised, developed and followed up within this policy area.

European research contributes to attaining the objectives of the other Community policies and, in return, promotes the incorporation of research policy needs in these policies.

Community actions required to achieve the European Research Area are devised and implemented within this policy area, in particular the research and technological development framework programmes.

This domain contributes to implementing the Lisbon strategy for employment, international competitiveness, economic reform and social cohesion in the European Union, in particular in connection with the establishment of an area of education, training, research and innovation.

Remarks

These remarks apply to all the budget headings in this title (with the exception of Chapter 08 22).

These appropriations will be used in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1906/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 laying down the rules for the participation of undertakings, research centres and universities in actions under the Seventh Framework Programme and for the dissemination of research results (2007 to 2013) (OJ L 391, 30.12.2006, p. 1) and Council Regulation (Euratom) No 1908/2006 of 19 December 2006 laying down the rules for the participation of undertakings, research centres and universities in action under the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community and for the dissemination of research results (2007 to 2011) (OJ L 400, 30.12.2006, p. 1).

For all appropriations under this title the same definition of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as is used for the horizontal SME-specific programmes within the same framework programme will be applicable. That definition reads as follows: 'An eligible SME is a legal entity that complies with the SME definition set out in Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC and is not a research centre, research institute, contract research organisation or consultancy firm’. All research activities conducted pursuant to the seventh framework programme will be carried out in compliance with fundamental ethical principles (in accordance with Article 6(1) of Decision No 1982/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007 to 2013) (OJ L 412, 30.12.2006, p. 1)), including animal welfare requirements. This will include, in particular, the principles laid down in Article 6 of the Treaty on European Union and in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. Particular account will be taken of the need to step up efforts to enhance the participation and role of women in science and research.

Also entered against these articles and items are the costs of high-level scientific and technological meetings, conferences, workshops and seminars of European interest organised by the Commission, the funding of high-level scientific and technological analyses and evaluations carried out on behalf of the Community to investigate new areas of research suitable for Community action, inter alia, in the context of the European Research Area, and measures to monitor and disseminate the results of the programmes, including measures under previous framework programmes.

These appropriations also cover administrative expenditure, including expenditure on staff, whether covered by the Staff Regulations or not, information, publications, administrative and technical operation, and certain other expenditure items relating to internal infrastructure linked with the achievement of the objective of the measure of which they form an integral part, including the action and initiatives necessary for preparation and monitoring of the Community's RTD strategy.

The participation of third countries or organisations from third countries in European cooperation in the field of scientific and technical research is possible in the case of some of these projects. Any financial contribution will be entered in Items 6 0 1 3 and 6 0 1 6 of the statement of revenue and may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from third parties sharing the cost of projects with the Community (firms in European Free Trade Association Member States, industrial consortia, etc.) entered in Article 6 0 1 5 of the statement of revenue may give rise to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contribution from outside bodies for participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 3 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Additional appropriations will be made available under Article 08 21 04.

In order to be able to meet the goal of 15 % SME participation in the projects financed by these appropriations, as laid down in the regulation, more specific action is needed. Qualifying projects under the SME Specific Programmes should be made eligible for funding under the thematic programme when they fulfil the necessary (thematic) requirements.

Remarks

New article

Increasing investment in research and development up to the 3 % objective and improving its effectiveness is a top priority of the Lisbon strategy for growth and employment. Thus, the development of a coherent mix of policies to leverage public and private research investments is a major concern for public authorities. Actions under this heading will support the development of effective and coherent research policies at regional, national and Community level, through the provision of structured information, indicators and analysis, and through actions aimed at the coordination of research policies, in particular the application of the Open Method of Coordination to research policy.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

(7)  The third paragraph of Article 268 of the Treaty establishing the European Community reads: ‘The revenue and expenditure shown in the budget shall be in balance’.

(8)  The base to be used does not exceed 50 % of GNI.

(9)  Calculation of rate: (79 152 835 808) / (116 942 340 000) = 0,676853531475426 %.

(10)  Rounded percentages.

(11)  The amount of pre-accession expenditure (PAE) corresponds to payments made to the 10 new Member States (which joined the EU on 1 May 2004) under 2003 appropriations, as adjusted by applying the EU GDP deflator for 2004 and 2005. This amount is deducted from total allocated expenditure to ensure that expenditure which is unabated before enlargement remains so after enlargement.

(12)  The ‘UK advantage’ corresponds to the effects arising for the United Kingdom from the changeover to capped VAT and the introduction of the GNP/GNI-based own resource.

(13)  These windfall gains correspond to the net gains of the United Kingdom resulting from the increase — from 10 to 25 % as of 1 January 2001 — in the percentage of traditional own resources retained by Member States to cover the collection costs of traditional own resources (TOR).

(14)  p.m. (own resources + other revenue = total revenue = total expenditure); (114 287 945 060 + 1 209 273 561 = 115 497 218 621 = 115 497 218 621).

(15)  Total own resources as percentage of GNI: (114 287 945 060) / (11 694 234 000 000) = 0,98 %; own resources ceiling as percentage of GNI: 1,24 %.

Calculation of the uniform call rate for VAT own resources (Article 2(4) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

| Uniform rate (%) = maximum call rate – frozen rate |
| --- |
| A. | The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2007. |

Uniform rate (%) = maximum call rate – frozen rate

A.

| B. | Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom): |
| --- | --- |

B.

Calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden:

In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL), Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution.

Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany:

Germany's theoretical VAT contribution = (Germany's capped VAT base / (EU capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)) × 1/4 × United Kingdom correction

Example: Germany

Germany's theoretical VAT contribution = 9 919 942 000 / (53 473 109 000 – 9 693 423 000 ) × 1/4 × 5 251 202 631 = 297 464 591

Calculation of the frozen rate:

Frozen rate = (UK correction – theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)) / (EU capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK + D + NL + A + S))

Frozen rate = (5 251 202 631 – (297 464 591 + 76 765 475 + 34 259 575 + 39 897 761 )) / (53 473 109 000 – (9 693 423 000 + 9 919 942 000 + 2 559 999 000 + 1 142 499 000 + 1 330 523 000 ))

Frozen rate = 0,166609823430018 %

Uniform rate

0,5 % – 0,166609823430018 % = 0,333390176569982 %

Remarks

Article 15 of the Financial Regulation states that the balance from each financial year, whether surplus or deficit, is entered as revenue or expenditure in the budget of the subsequent financial year.

The relevant estimates of such revenue or expenditure are entered in the budget during the budgetary procedure and, where appropriate, in a letter of amendment submitted pursuant to Article 34 of the Financial Regulation. They are drawn up in accordance with the principles set out in Article 15 of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000.

After the closure of the accounts for each financial year, any discrepancy in relation to the estimates is entered in the budget for the following financial year through an amending budget.

A deficit is entered in Article 27 02 01 of the statement of expenditure of Section III ‘Commission’.

Legal basis

Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom on the system of the Communities’ own resources (OJ L 130, 31.5.2000, p. 1), as amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2028/2004 (OJ L 352, 27.11.2004, p. 1).

Council Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom of 29 September 2000 on the system of the European Communities’ own resources (OJ L 253, 7.10.2000, p. 42), and in particular Article 7 thereof.

Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1), as amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1995/2006 (OJ L 390, 30.12.2006, p. 1), and in particular Article 15 thereof.

(1)  AB No 1 to No 3/2007 included.

(2)  The figures in this column correspond to those in the 2006 budget (OJ L 78, 15.3.2006, p. 1) plus Amending Budgets No 1 to No 6/2006.

(3)  The third paragraph of Article 268 of the Treaty establishing the European Community reads: ‘The revenue and expenditure shown in the budget shall be in balance’.

(4)  AB No 1 to No 3/2007 included.

(5)  The figures in this column correspond to those in the 2006 budget (OJ L 78, 15.3.2006, p. 1) plus Amending Budgets No 1 to No 6/2006.

(6)  The own resources for the 2007 budget are determined on the basis of the budget forecasts adopted at the 136th meeting of the Advisory Committee on Own Resources on 19 May 2006.

(7)  The third paragraph of Article 268 of the Treaty establishing the European Community reads: ‘The revenue and expenditure shown in the budget shall be in balance’.

(8)  The base to be used does not exceed 50 % of GNI.

(9)  Calculation of rate: (77 305 204 097) / (116 942 340 000) = 0,661054021126993 %.

(10)  Rounded percentages.

(11)  The amount of pre-accession expenditure (PAE) corresponds to payments made to the 10 new Member States (which joined the EU on 1 May 2004) under 2003 appropriations, as adjusted by applying the EU GDP deflator for 2004 and 2005. This amount is deducted from total allocated expenditure to ensure that expenditure which is unabated before enlargement remains so after enlargement.

(12)  The ‘UK advantage’ corresponds to the effects arising for the United Kingdom from the changeover to capped VAT and the introduction of the GNP/GNI-based own resource.

(13)  These windfall gains correspond to the net gains of the United Kingdom resulting from the increase — from 10 to 25 % as of 1 January 2001 — in the percentage of traditional own resources retained by Member States to cover the collection costs of traditional own resources (TOR).

(14)  p.m. (own resources + other revenue = total revenue = total expenditure); (112 440 313 349 + 3 056 905 272 = 115 497 218 621 = 115 497 218 621).

(15)  Total own resources as percentage of GNI: (112 440 313 349) / (11 694 234 000 000) = 0,96 %; own resources ceiling as percentage of GNI: 1,24 %.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on implementation of a programme to promote alternatives to international road haulage, designated ‘Marco Polo II’.

The programme Marco Polo II proposes five kinds of measures to achieve its objectives:

| — | modal transfer actions, to transfer, in the short term, an important share of road traffic to other less saturated transport modes, |
| --- | --- |

—

modal transfer actions, to transfer, in the short term, an important share of road traffic to other less saturated transport modes,

| — | catalyst actions, that enable structural market barriers to be overcome through the implementation of new innovative services, |

—

catalyst actions, that enable structural market barriers to be overcome through the implementation of new innovative services,

| — | common learning actions, with a view to improving cooperation, share of know-how and knowledge development in the logistics industry, |
| --- | --- |

—

common learning actions, with a view to improving cooperation, share of know-how and knowledge development in the logistics industry,

| — | actions to provide high-quality logistic services based on short sea shipping, that will be comparable to motorways and therefore called ‘motorways of the sea’, |
| --- | --- |

—

actions to provide high-quality logistic services based on short sea shipping, that will be comparable to motorways and therefore called ‘motorways of the sea’,

| — | traffic avoidance actions, that will involve an active role for manufacturing industry and logistics systems within one coherent strategy to develop sustainable operations. |
| --- | --- |

—

traffic avoidance actions, that will involve an active role for manufacturing industry and logistics systems within one coherent strategy to develop sustainable operations.

The transport infrastructure networks of the newest Member States are not at the moment adequate to serve the increased post-enlargement trade flows; in such cases intermodal transport solutions constitute the best response and thus there is huge scope for Marco Polo II as a continuation and strengthening of the successful Marco Polo I programme.

The support for commercial action in the market for freight transport services is different from the support given through research and development programmes and the trans-European network programme. Marco Polo II will foster modal shift projects in all segments of the freight market, not only in combined transport.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Legal basis

Regulation (EC) No 1692/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 2006, establishing the second Marco Polo programme for the granting of Community financial assistance to improve the environmental performance of the freight transport system (Marco Polo II) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1382/2003 (OJ L 328, 24.11.2006, p. 1).
