supplementing Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 as regards the basis of calculation for reductions to be applied to farmers by Member States due to the adjustment of payments in 2013 and financial discipline for calendar year 2013

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,

Whereas:

| (1) | Article 10a of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, which applies as from 1 January 2013, provides for an adjustment of direct payments in respect of 2013.

(1)

Article 10a of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, which applies as from 1 January 2013, provides for an adjustment of direct payments in respect of 2013. 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). |
| --- | --- |

(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).

Reductions due to the adjustment of direct payments in 2013 provided for in Article 10a of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 as well as reductions due to financial discipline provided for in Article 11 of that Regulation for calendar year 2013 shall be applied to the sum of the payments from the different support schemes listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 to which each farmer is entitled to after the application of Article 78 of Regulation (EC) No 1122/2009.

Those reductions shall be applied before the reductions provided for in Article 79(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1122/2009 are applied.

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,

(1)

Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation.

| (2) | Methionine-zinc, technically pure, was authorised without a time limit in accordance with Council Directive 82/471/EEC of 30 June 1982 concerning certain products used in animal nutrition (2) as an amino acid for use on ruminants by Commission Directive 88/485/EEC (3). This feed additive was subsequently entered in the European Union Register of feed additives as an existing product, in accordance with Article 10(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |

The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
