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 11a thereof,

Article 11 of that Regulation provides for an adjustment for reasons of financial discipline. Provision                              should be made to ensure an optimal application of those adjustments in 2013.

(2)In the interest of transparency and predictability, it is appropriate that the method of calculation of both adjustments in                              the process of calculating the amount of the payments to be made to farmers in respect of 2013 corresponds to the method for                              calculating the reduction due to modulation under Articles 7 and 10 of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 and to financial discipline                              under Article 11 of that Regulation as provided for in Article 79(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1122/2009 of 30 November                              2009 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 as regards cross-compliance,                              modulation and the integrated administration and control system, under the direct support schemes for farmers provided for                              that Regulation, as well as for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 as regards cross-compliance under                              the support scheme provided for the wine sector(2).
