COUNCIL DECISION

of 12 December 2011

on the position to be taken by the European Union in the EEA Joint Committee concerning an amendment to Annex IV (Energy) to the EEA Agreement

(2011/886/EU)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Articles 114(1), 192(1) and 218 (9) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2894/94 of 28 November 1994 concerning arrangements for implementing the Agreement on the European Economic Area (1), and in particular Article 1(3) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

(1) Annex IV to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (2), (hereinafter ‘the EEA Agreement’) contains specific provisions and arrangements concerning energy.

(3) Directive 2009/28/EC repeals Directive 2001/77/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 September 2001 on the promotion of electricity produced from renewable energy sources in the internal electricity market (4), which is incorporated into the EEA Agreement and is therefore to be repealed under the EEA Agreement.

(4) Norway’s fulfilment of the target for share of energy from renewable sources in gross final consumption of energy in 2020 must be seen in the context of the initial high share of renewable energy compared to the EU Member States, and the uncertainty associated with supply and demand embedded in the combination of a hydro-based energy production system and a cold climate,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The position to be taken by the Union in the EEA Joint Committee concerning an amendment to Annex IV (Energy) to the EEA Agreement shall be based on the draft Decision of the EEA Joint Committee attached to this Decision.

DECISION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

of 13 December 2011

amending the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management as regards the multiannual financial framework, to address additional financing needs of the ITER project

(2012/5/EU)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (1),

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

(1) At the trilogue meeting of 1 December 2011 the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission have agreed on the modalities for providing additional financing to the ITER project. The financing requires a revision of the multiannual financial framework 2007-2013 in accordance with the Interinstitutional Agreement, so as to raise the ceilings for commitment appropriations under subheading 1a by EUR 650 million for the year 2012 and by EUR 190 million for the year 2013 in current prices.

(2) The increase of the ceilings for commitment appropriations under subheading 1a for the years 2012 and 2013 will be fully offset by a decrease of the ceilings for commitment appropriations for the year 2011 under heading 2 and of commitment appropriations for the years 2011 and 2012 under heading 5.

(3) In order to keep an appropriate relationship between commitments and payments, the annual ceilings for payment appropriations will be adjusted. The adjustment will be neutral in terms of payment requirements over the period 2007-2013.

(4) Annex I to the Interinstitutional Agreement on budgetary discipline and sound financial management should therefore be amended accordingly (2),

HAVE ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
