THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing,                           management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94,                           (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008(1), and in particular Article 16(2) thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)In accordance with Article 16(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 the annual ceiling for the European Agricultural Guarantee                              Fund (EAGF) expenditure shall be constituted by the maximum amounts set for it under Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013(2), Annex I, sub-ceiling for Market related expenditure and direct payments.

(2)Article 10c(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009(3) provides that the amounts resulting from voluntary adjustment referred to in Article 10b(5) of that Regulation and from the                              application of Article 136 of that Regulation are to be made available to the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development                              (EAFRD) for financial year 2014.

(3)Commission Implementing Decision 2013/146/EU(4) fixes the amount resulting from the application of voluntary adjustment in the United Kingdom for the calendar year 2013.                              This amount should be made available for the EAFRD in the year 2014.

(4)Article 136 of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 provides that Member States were allowed to decide, by 1 August 2009, to transfer,                              from the financial year 2011, an amount calculated in accordance with Article 69(7) of that Regulation to Union support under                              rural development programming and financing under the EAFRD instead of having recourse to Article 69(6)(a) of that Regulation.                              The amounts available for transfer have been calculated and fixed in Annex III to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1120/2009(5).

(5)Article 136b of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, as inserted by Regulation (EU) No 1310/2013 of the European Parliament and of                              the Council(6), provides that Member States that, in accordance with Article 136 of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, have decided to make an                              amount available from the financial year 2011 for Union support under rural development programming and financing under the                              EAFRD, are to continue to make the amounts of Annex VIIIa to that Regulation, as inserted by Regulation (EU) No 1310/2013,                              available for rural development programming and financing under the EAFRD for financial year 2015.

(6)Therefore, the amounts set out in Annex VIIIa to Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 for Germany and Sweden shall be made available                              for rural development programming and financing under the EAFRD for financial year 2015.

(7)Article 66(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council(7) provides that, for Member States having applied the first subparagraph of Article 4(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 637/2008(8), the relevant annual budget available pursuant to Article 5(1) of that Regulation is to be transferred with effect from 1                              January 2014 to the EAFRD. Greece has applied the first subparagraph of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 637/2008.

(8)It is therefore appropriate to fix the net balance to be made available for EAGF expenditure for the budget years 2014 to                              2020. For the sake of clarity, the amounts to be made available to EAFRD should also be published,
