THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 of 19 January 2009 establishing common rules for direct support schemes for farmers under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers, amending Regulations (EC) No 1290/2005, (EC) No 247/2006, (EC) No 378/2007 and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 (1), and in particular Article 142(d) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | The second subparagraph of Article 19(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1120/2009 (2) specifies an upper limit for the allocation of payment entitlements from the national reserve to farmers in a special situation, which should be set at the maximum number of payment entitlements that a farmer can receive in accordance with Article 17 of that Regulation. However, reference was erroneously made to Article 22 of that Regulation instead. That error needs to be corrected, with effect from the date of application of Regulation (EC) No 1120/2009. |
