amending Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Annexes II and III to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on support for rural development by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 (1), and in particular Article 58(7) thereof,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing rules for direct payments to farmers under support schemes within the framework of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 637/2008 and Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 (2), and in particular Articles 6(3) and 7(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) In accordance with Article 11(6) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, Belgium, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, Italy, Cyprus, Latvia, Luxembourg, Hungary, Malta, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden and the United Kingdom notified the Commission by 1 August 2014 of their decisions taken under Article 11 of that Regulation, including the estimated product of reductions for the calendar years 2015 to 2019.

(2) In accordance with Article 7(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, the estimated product of the reduction of payments notified by Member States and referred to in Article 11(6) of that Regulation is to be made available as Union support for measures under rural development programming. As a result, Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 and Annex III to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 need to be adapted according to the amounts notified by Member States.

(3) In addition, in certain cases the product of the reduction of payments may be null due, in particular, to the structures of agricultural holdings in Member States and the anticipated distribution of direct payments and the possibility for Member States to apply Article 11(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013. Accordingly, Belgium, Luxembourg, Malta, Austria, Slovenia and Finland notified the Commission of their estimated product of reduction which is null for all the calendar years 2015 to 2019.

(4) Belgium, Germany, France, Croatia, Lithuania and Romania have decided to make use of Article 11(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013.

(5) In accordance with Article 136a(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 (3) and Article 14(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Greece, the Netherlands and Romania notified the Commission by 1 August 2014 of their decision to transfer a certain percentage of their annual national ceilings for calendar years 2015 to 2019 to rural development programming financed under the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) as specified in Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013.

(6) In accordance with the third subparagraph of Article 136a(2) of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 and Article 14(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, Hungary notified the Commission by 1 August 2014 of its decision to transfer to direct payments a certain percentage of the amount allocated to support for measures under rural development programming financed under the EAFRD in the period of 2016 to 2020 as specified in Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013.

(7) Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 and Annexes II and III to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 should therefore be amended accordingly,

(8) As this Regulation is essential for a smooth and timely adoption of rural development programmes, it is appropriate that it enters into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,
