GROUNDS
On6November the Council decided tomake advance payments ofup
22.2 million EGAtothe United Kingdom under Article 5ofCouncil
Regulation (EEC)n°2744 /80,apayment of200million EUAtobe
made bythe endofthe 1980 year .
Thedraft supplementary and amending budget for 1980,adopted by
theCouncil on6November provides forthefinancing ofupto
119.7 million EUAofthe222,2 million EUA from surplus revenue
for 1980 .
The Commission would suggest tothebudgetary authority that,
subject toavailability ,the remainder ofthe advance payment
(viz.upto102.5 million EUA)bemade upbymeans ofanopen
transfer' ,,
The open transfer 'formula ,which ismore orless ten same asthat
adopted bytheCouncil in1973,1974,1973 and 1976,istheonly feasible
solution since itisimpossible tosayatthis stage how much ofthe
above sum can bereleased and from which budgetary heading .Itis
understood ,however ,that only appropriations which would otherwise
lapse on31December 1930 will betransferred ^namely s
(a)appropriations carried over from 1979 which cannotbeused in1980;
Cb)nori-differantiated appropriations for 1980which cannot' becarried
