After consulting the Advisory Committee on Own Resources,

Whereas:

(1) Under Article 371 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (2), Ireland may continue to exempt the transactions referred to in Annex X, Part B to that Directive, if it exempted those transactions at 1 January 1978; those transactions must be taken into account for the determination of the VAT own resources base.

(2) In its letter of 28 April 2014 (3), Ireland requested an extension to the authorisation from the Commission to use certain approximate estimates for the calculation of the VAT own resources base for transactions referred to in point 10 of Annex X, Part B to Directive 2006/112/EC until and including the financial year 2018. Ireland should be authorised to continue to calculate the VAT own resources base using certain approximate estimates.

(3) For reasons of transparency and legal certainty it is appropriate to limit the applicability of the authorisation in time.

(4) It is therefore appropriate to amend Commission Decision 2010/5/EU, Euratom (4) accordingly,
