(notified under document number C(2007) 5985)
(2007/851/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the veterinary field (1), and in particular Articles 24(5) and (6), and Articles 29 and 32 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Decision 90/424/EEC lays down the procedures governing the Community’s financial contribution for programmes for the eradication, control and monitoring of animal diseases and zoonoses.
(2)
Commission Decision 2006/687/EC of 12 October 2006 on programmes which qualify for a Community financial contribution in 2007 for the eradication and monitoring of certain animal diseases, for the prevention of zoonoses, for the monitoring of TSEs as well as programmes for the eradication of BSE and scrapie (2) sets out the proposed rate and maximum amount of the Community’s financial contribution for each programme submitted by the Member States.
(3)
Commission Decision 2006/875/EC of 30 November 2006 approving programmes for the eradication and monitoring of animal diseases, of certain TSEs, and for the prevention of zoonoses presented by the Member States for the year 2007 (3) and Commission Decision 2006/876/EC of 30 November 2006 approving programmes for the eradication and monitoring of animal diseases, of certain TSEs, and for the prevention of zoonoses presented by Bulgaria and Romania for the year 2007 and amending Decision 2006/687/EC set out the maximum amount of the Community’s financial contribution for each programme submitted by the Member States.
(4)
The Commission has assessed the reports forwarded by the Member States on the expenditures of those programmes. The results of that assessment show that certain Member States will not utilise their full allocation for 2007 while others will spend in excess of the allocated amount.
(5)
The Community’s financial contribution to certain of those programmes therefore needs to be adjusted. It is appropriate to reallocate funding from programmes of Member States, which are not using their full allocation to those that are exceeding it. The reallocation should be based on the most recent information on the expenditure actually incurred by the concerned Member States.
(6)
Decisions 2006/687/EC, 2006/875/EC and 2006/876/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
