INTRODUCTORY NOTE
Article 10 of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 on the financing of the common  
agricultural policy requires the Commission to send each year to the Council  
and Parliament "a financial report on the administration of the Fund during  
the preceding financial year and, in particular, on the state of its resources  
and the nature of this expenditure and the conditions under which Community  
financing has been effected".
The present report covers the operations of the Guarantee Section of the EAGGF  
and the financing of Community food aid for 1982. The work of the Guidance  
Section is dealt with in a separate report.
The Guarantee Section finances expenditure resulting from the common policy on  
agricultural markets and prices. Under Articles 2 and 3 of Regulation (EEC)
No 729/79, expenditure consists in refunds on exports to non-member countries  
to bridge the difference between Community prices and world market prices and  
a wide range of market intervention measures designed to stabilize the  
agricultural markets (storage, product withdrawal, price compensation, guide  
premiums).
N.B. :  This report was completed on 1 June 1983·

SUMMARY OF THE TWELFTH FINANCIAL REPORT 
EAGGF GUARANTEE SECTION
A. Community financing of markets
1. Original appropriations for 1982 totalled 13 703*1 million ECU, and  
total expenditure eventually came to 12 405*6 million ECU, well within  
the appopriations* The latter amount includes the financial  
contribution of milk producers, 537*3 million ECU.
In contrast with the previous year, the original appropriations were  
not altered by amending budgets during 1982. However, the Commission  
did present two preliminary draft amending budgets, both of which were  
refused, the first by the Council in July 1982, and the second by  
Parliament in December 1982.
Compared with expenditure for 1981, 10 980*2 million ECU including the  
reduction in expenditure of 161 million ECU resulting from the 1974  
and 1975 accounts clearances, total expenditure in 1982 increased by  
13#* The increase was mainly accounted for by oils and fats, wine,  
sugar, fruit and vegetables and tobacco.
2. Vith regard to the breakdown of expenditure according to economic  
nature, refunds declined both in absolute value and as a percentage of  
total expenditure in 1982 as in 1981 (refunds in 1982, 40*7$ of total  
expenditure, as against 46.8$ in 1981). The decline was largely  
accounted for by lower expenditure on refunds in the milk products,  
beef/veal and cereals sectors resulting from a decline in exports,  
partly offset by an increase in refund expenditure on sugar,
non-Annex II products and tobacco.

-  I l l  -
With regard to intervention, the largest share of this type of  
expenditure was, as in previous years, price compensating aids (38.4$  
of total expenditure in 1982, compared with 32.6$ in 1981). The  
increase in 1982 is accounted for by an increase in aids for milk  
products, tobacco, oils and fats, and fruit and vegetables in  
particular.
Intervention stocks also built up in the second half of 1982,  
particularly stocks of cereals and milk products. Thus the value of  
products in storage at 31 December 1982 was about 4 000 million ECU,  
more than double the end-1981 figure.
As for the assessment of the overall cost of EAGGP guarantee spending,  
the figures show that the gross cost as a percentage of GDP, which was  
only 0.44$ in 1976, peaked out at 0.59$ in 1979 to fall back again to
0.50$ in 1981. The figure for 1982 was 0.52$. The net cost, after  
deduction of agricultural levies, shows a very slight increase for  
1982 overl981 (0.43$ in 1982, 0.42$ in 1981).
B. Cash position and financial management
The system of monthly advances, one of the key elements in the financing  
of the common agricultural policy, is designed to combine centralization  
of cash control decisions in the Commission - i.e. the provision in  
advance to the Member States of Community funds to cover expenditure  
chargeable to the EAGGF - with decentralized management by the Member  
States.
In 1982, the Commission adopted 17 decisions on advance payments, four of  
which were extraordinary and one supplementary, as against 19 decisions,  
seven extraordinary, in 1981.
As in previous years, the Commission endeavoured to ensure that the rate  
of utilization of advance payments was as high as possible. Thus the  
expenditure paid out in 1982 by the Member States in respect of EAGGF 
guarantee operations totalled 98.9$ of the funds placed at their disposal,  
a percentage higher than that for 1981 (97.6$).

- IV -
C. Investigations and irregularities
In 1982, the Commission organized 14 specific investigations (13 in 1981)  
and began a series of selective checks relating to the physical  
verification of public intervention.
The number of cases of irregularities notified by the Member States  
(excepting those concerning the milk non-marketing premium) totalled 213  
in 1982 (152 in 198l). These irregularities concern an amount of  
34«99 million ECU, of which 0*74 million ECU has been recovered.
The Commission continued its work on the setting up of a centralized  
computer file and on training programmes for national inspectors.
D. Clearance of accounts
As in previous years, the EAGGP's staff again made eveiy effort in 1982 to  
make good the time that has been lost with regard to the clearance of  
accounts and to improve the audit procedure.
In Januaiy 1983» the Commission adopted its decisions on accounts  
clearance of 1976 and 1977 expenditure; these decisions show a difference  
between expenditure charged on the basis of the monthly declarations of  
the Member States and that recognized as eligible for Community  
financing. The difference, amounting to 108.1 million ECU for the two  
years, will be credited to 1983·
The "dialogue" between the Member States and the Commission's staff on  
problems relating to 1978 and 1979 was begun in August 1982 and will  
continue in 1983, with a view to referral of the draft decisions to the  
Commission before the end of the year.
With regard to 1980 and 1981, auditing of expenditure by documentary 
evidence and on-the-spot will be probably be completed during the summer  
of 1983* After the dialogue stage with the Member States, draft decisions  
should go to the Commission in early 1984·

- V -
As for expenditure declared in respect of 1982, investigations on-the-spot  
should take place in the last quarter of 1983. This means that the time  
lost over previous years should have been made good by the end of 1983·
In connection with its efforts to improve clearance procedures, the  
Commission organized in June 1982 a seminar on "systems auditing", which  
provided fuller information for participants on this method of auditing.  
Initially, the Commission staff are planning to use it to verify all  
agricultural refunds expenditure for 1982 and subsequent years.
E. Financing of Community food aid
The procedures for financing food aid are similar to those employed in  
guarantee financing. In 1982 the Commission made monthly advance payments  
totalling 515*3 million ECU (including the balance available at  
31 December 1981). Expenditure declared by the Member States by the end  
of 1982 totalled 468.6 million ECU (1981 :  541.1 m ECU), which gives a
rate of utilization of Community funds of 90.9$·
Expenditure made by the Member States in 1982 (468.6 m ECU) mainly 
financed milk product aid programmes (267*5 m ECU) and programmes for  
cereals and rice (165*3 m ECU).
The Commission again made, as in the past, direct payments to certain  
non-member countries and agencies carrying out food aid operations. These  
totalled 68.3 million ECU in 1982.
To these expenditures should be added the refunds covering food aid  
operations entered in the Guarantee Section of the EAGGF, a total of  
166.4 million ECU (1981, 182 m ECU).

TITLE I
COMMUNITY FINANCING OP THE MARKETS
The original appropriations for 1982 totalled 13 703.1 million ECU, including  
the fisheries sector (31*8 m ECU) and the provisional appropriations entered  
at Chapter 100 (454 m ECU).
Account should, however, also be taken of carryovers from 1981 (161.7 m ECU),  
to be added to the original appropriations, yielding, as appropriations  
available at the beginning of 1982, a total of 13 864.8 million ECU.
A comparison of this last figure with total expenditure for the year,
12 405.6 million ECU, shows that major savings were achieved for 1982,  
amounting to 1 459-2 million ECU; these savings were achieved because market  
conditions both within the Community and outside developed along more  
favourable lines than had been forecast and because of the ongoing efforts  
being made to improve the operation of the market organizations.

- 2 -
1. Agricultural prices and adjustments to market mechanisms having financial  
implications
In 1982, EAGGF guarantee spending was forced up by the relatively  
substantial adaptation of agricultural prices for the 1982/83 season and  
the various adjustments to the operation of the common organizations  
adopted both under the related measures, when the agricultural prices were  
reviewed, and in the course of 1982.
Greece joined the Community on 1 January 1981, but the effect of the  
addition to the Community's membership was felt more in 1982. For  
example, in sectors which had previously been of minor importance,  
expenditure increased in that year. In addition, as a result of Greece's  
accession, the Community financing of expenditure was extended to a number  
of agricultural products which had previously not qualified, such as  
cotton, dried grapes and dried figs.
1.1. Agricultural prices
For the 1982/83 marketing year, the average increase in agricultural  
prices expressed in ECU was 10.4$ for the Community taken as a
whole(1).  Taking into account agri-monetary adjustments, the
average increase in prices when expressed in national currencies  
came to 12.2$ for the Community as a whole. This increase, varying 
from product to product, was more substantial for livestock products  
(milk, 10.5$) than for crop products (cereals, 8.5$). However, a  
number of Mediterranean crop products, such as wine, olive oil and  
certain fruits and vegetables were awarded above-average increases.
(l) Council Decisions adopted at a meeting held on 17/18 May 1982.

- 3 -
With regard to the financial implications of the Council's decisions  
on the agricultural prices and related measures, it has been 
estimated that they will entail an additional charge to the budget  
of 770 million ECU beyond the original 1982 budget. Spread over a  
period of 12 months, the additional expenditure resulting from these  
decisions should reach 1 450 million ECU.
Guarantee thresholds
In accordance with long-term objectives with regard to Community  
production, the Council decided, when it adopted the agricultural  
prices for the 1982/83 marketing year, to establish guarantee  
thresholds for cereals, milk, colza and tomatoes for processing.
Where, under procedures tailored to each sector, the thresholds are  
exceeded, involvement of the producers in market support will be  
implemented. This will take the form of a lower intervention price  
for cereals and a lower target and intervention price for colza.
This may also be the case for milk. As for tomatoes for processing,  
the Council has undertaken to adopt appropriate measures on  
Commission proposals should the guarantee threshold applicable from  
the 1982/83 season onwards be exceeded.
These arrangements signify the extension to other products of the  
co-responsibility principle.
1.2. Adjustments in certain sectors having financial implications
The adjustments indicated below include those decided when the  
agricultural prices were fixed as well as those adopted in the  
course of the year.

- 4 -
1.2.1. Milk products
a) The co-responsibility levy and related measures
The co-responsibility levy, which represents the financial  
contribution of milk producers towards achieving equlibrium on  
the market (Reg. (EEC) No 1079/77), was fixed at 0.5# of the  
target price for milk during the period from June 1978 to June  
1980 for. Eor the 1980/81 campaign, the rate was raised to 2#.  
Raised further to 2.5# for the following marketing year, it was  
reduced again to 2# for 1982-83*
As for the preceding marketing year, dairy farmers in Greece,  
the south of Italy and in mountain and hill regions were  
exempted from the levy.
The funds accruing from this scheme, which ranks as a market  
stabilization scheme, totalled 537*3 million ECU in 1982.
The funds are used :
a) to finance some or all of the specific measures details of  
which are given in Annex 9 (market development, promotion,  
and publicity measures; milk and butterfat disposal  
schemes);
b) to provide a contribution to EAGGP guarantee spending in the
milk and milk products sector1
The specific measures include the following two schemes :
1. The resumption of reduced-price sales of storage butter for  
direct consumption in the form of concentrated butter.
(l) The gross expenditure was
2 948.2 m ECU in 1977  
4 170.8 m ECU in 1978  
4 621.7 m ECU in 1979  
4 974.9 m ECU in 1980
3 821.2 m ECU in 1981  
3 865-0 m ECU in 1982

- 5 -
2. The retention of the scheme for reduced-price sales of milk  
and certain milk products to school children, while lowering  
national financial contributions and stepping up the share  
accounted for by the EAGGF.
b) Other measures
The other measures adopted in this sector include :
the provision for small dairy farmers during the 1982/83  
marketing year of an amount of 120 million ECU as income  
support,
the introduction of a guarantee threshold equivalent to the  
quantity of milk sent to dairies during 1981 + 0.5$,
the retention of butter consumption subsidies in Denmark,  
Ireland, Luxembourg and the United Kingdom.
In addition, because of the increase in skimmed-milk powder and  
butter stocks and therefore of the need to find outlets for  
their disposal, specific measures were adopted in the course of  
the year :
the reactivation and amendment, with a view to improving its  
efficacity, of the scheme for the sale at reduced prices of  
skimmed-milk powder from public stocks for use as feed for  
pigs and poultry;
the payment of a subsidy of 130 ECU/100 kg, entirely  
chargeable to the Community, covering a quantity of  
120 000 tonnes of butter for direct consumption ("Christmas  
butter").

- 6 -
1.2.2.Cereals
During the year, the main innovation in the common organization  
was the introduction of a guarantee threshold covering all types  
of cereals except durum wheat.
The Council also decided, with regard to durum, not to restrict  
the aid to the first ten hectares, but to confine the aid, as in  
the past, to the regions in which this type of cereal constitutes  
a traditional and important part of agricultural production. Prom  
the 1983/84 marketing year onwards, the aid will be paid in the  
mountain and hill areas and less-favoured areas on Italy, Greece  
and France, and in other limited administrative regions of the  
same Member States.
The cultivation of colza has expanded sharply in recent years, and  
it was therefore decided, as in the two preceding years to set a  
guarantee threshold for colza seed.
The disposal of sunflower seed was being obstructed by the sharp  
increase in production in past year, and the system of  
differential amounts, previously operated for colza and rape  
seeds, was extended to this product as well.
The aid for cotton seed, which had been operated since the 1971/72  
marketing year, was discontinued, Greece having joined the  
Community, and has been replaced by an aid for cotton, unginned.
Aubergines and apricots have been added to the list of products  
subject to price and intervention arrangements because of their  
importance for certain categories of farmers.1.2.3. Oilseeds and olive oil
1.2.4. Fruit and vegetables

- 7 -
The scheme for preventive withdrawals of apples and pears, which  
should have come to an end on 30 June 1982 was extended until  
30 June 1987· Experience in the last three marketing years has  
shown that this system has ensured more effective support and  
stabilization of the market. Under the regulations, the Member  
States have been authorized to carry out preventive withdrawals of  
apples in quantities, which, because of the exceptional harvest in  
1982, were eventually fixed at 700 000 tonnes.
With regard to processed fruit and vegetables, the main measure  
introduced in 1982 in the regulations was a guarantee threshold  
for tomatoes for processing, as supplies of this product were  
tending to grow immoderately.
Stocks of dried grapes of the "Sultanine" variety at the end of  
the 1981/82 marketing year were so heavy that there might well  
have been not enough room to accommodate the new harvest.  
Consequently, it was decided to pay an aid of 57.1 ECU per tonne  
for the restorage of 30 000 tonnes of dried "Sultanine" grapes of  
the 1981 harvest.
1.2.5· Wine
To maintain or, where appropriate, restore, balance on the market  
for table wines, major adjustments were made, under the current  
regulations, to the common organization of the wine market, in  
particular with regard to the arrangements for distillation.
Table wines now enjoy a guaranteed minimum price of 82$ of the  
guide price, but it was also decided that in years of very heavy 
harvests there would be obligatory distillation of table wines in  
order to reduce stocks foreseeable at the end of the marketing  
year to a level corresponding to five to six months' use. In  
addition, preventive distillation may be carried out between the  
beginning of the wine marketing year and the time at which any  
compulsory distillation is ordered.

- 8 -
The alcohol deriving from compulsory distillation operations may 
he sent to the intervention agencies. The net losses resulting  
from the acceptance of alcohol under the compulsory preventive  
distillation scheme are entirely chargeable to the EAGGF. The  
disposal of the alcohol accepted in connection with the  
distillation of by-products of wine-making and that of wines other  
than table wine is subject to Community monitoring. If, as a  
result of such monitoring, additional losses are incurred, such  
additional losses are also chargeable to the EAGGF.
1.2.6. Beef/veal
Pending a review of existing premium schemes and their  
replacement, where appropriate, by a more uniform direct aid to  
farmers' incomes, it was decided, under the measures related to  
the adoption of the agricultural prices for 1982/83, to keep the  
calf premium in Italy at its current level, i.e. 32 ECU, but to  
include Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Greece within its scope for 
the 1982/83 marketing year. In addition, the facility under which  
a slaughter premium can be paid for certain large slaughter bovine  
animals, used so far only by the United Kingdom, was renewed for  
the 1982/83 marketing year.
With a view to underpinning the improvement of the situation  
enjoyed by farmers in Ireland and Northern Ireland*, the  
supplementary premium for the maintenance of dairy herds, granted  
on certain conditions in the 1981/82 marketing year, was retained  
for 1982/83, the amount being fixed at 20 ECU per cow. These  
premiums constitute intervention and are therefore chargeable in  
part or wholly to the EAGGF Guarantee Section.
1.2.7* Pigmeat
An outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in Denmark entailed the  
introduction of market support measures in the form of aid to  
private storage. The quantities concerned were about  
71 500 tonnes.
*in addition to the basic premium for suckler cows (Reg. (EEC) No 1357/80)

1.2.8· Sheep- and goatment
Experience since the entry into force in 1980 of the regulation on  
the common organization of the markets in the sheep- and goatmeat  
sector had highlighted a number of problems (fraudulent trading)  
between Ireland and Northern Ireland following the introduction of  
the variable slaughter premium allowed in the basic regulation.
The Council therefore decided to rank Northern Ireland as a region  
separate from that of Great Britain, with which it had previously  
been grouped. The same rules now apply in Northern Ireland as in  
Ireland, and there is therefore no longer any incentive to fraud.
1.2.9· Raw tobacco
To assist tobacco growers and first processing and tobacco  
packaging undertakings affected by the earthquake in Italy in  
November 1980, a number of special measures were adopted in  
February 1982. These measures, consisting in special aids, are  
financed by the Community budget as aids to Community disaster  
victims; the total amount may not exceed 20.3 million ECU. For  
the management and control of these aids, the provisions of Reg.  
(EEC) No 729/70 are applied mutatis mutandis.
1.2.10. Peas and field beans
The Community demand for proteins for animal feed exceeds by far  
their production in the Member States, and special schemes had  
therefore been adopted in 1978 to step up the use of peas and  
field beans for animal feed.
In 1982, Regulation (EEC) No 1431/82^, superseding previous  
regulations, also included an aid for the 1982/83 marketing year  
onwards for Community peas and field beans prepared for human  
consumption.

2. Financing of the market
2.1. Expenditure compared with original appropriations
Table No 1 below enables expenditure by the end of the year to be  
compared with the original appropriations entered in the budget  
(13 703*1 m ECU).
2.1.1. The agricultural sectors
A detailed analysis of the various sectors prompts the following  
observations :
a) Cereals and rice
Total expenditure on this sector (l 875 m ECU) fell short of  
the original forecasts (2 101 m ECU).
However, analysis shows that this was a net result of increases  
as well as reductions.
For example, expenditure on refunds for cereals was lower than  
forecast (original appropriations, 1 327 m ECU; expenditure,
1 065 m ECU) because world prices held firm during 1981/82.  
Expenditure on end-of-season carryover payments was low 
(73 m ECU; the original appropriations were 141 m ECU) because  
of the price increase approved by the Council for the 1982/83  
marketing year the effect of which was to narrow down the price  
difference between the end of the 1981/82 marketing year and  
the beginning of the 1982/83 marketing year.
On the other hand, expenditure on public storage increased  
substantially (380 m ECU; the original appropriations were  
249 m ECU) not only because of the bumper harvest in 1982, but  
at 130.5 million tonnes (all cereals) (7*1$ above that for  
1981), but also because of export difficulties.

I

- 12 -
b) Sugar
Total expenditure on sugar (1 242 m ECU) slightly exceeded the  
original forecasts (1 226 m ECU). Despite falling prices on  
the world market, refunds also fell short of the original  
forecasts (744 m ECU; the original appropriations were  
789 m ECU)because exports were lower than had been expected.
The result of the lower exports combined with a carryover of  
about one million tonnes of "C" sugar from the 1981/82  
marketing year to the 1982/83 marketing year was an increase in  
stocks and therefore in expenditure on reimbursing storage  
costs, which were thus higher than foreseen (490 m ECU; the  
original appropriation was 419 m ECU).
c) Olive oil
In 1982, expenditure on olive oil (493 m ECU) fell well short  
of forecasts (684 m ECU).
Expenditure for production aids (255 m ECU) was lower than  
forecast (390 m ECU) because the advance payments for the  
1981/82 harvest were low and the 30% balance of the aid for the  
two previous marketing years was suspended for Italy pending  
the results of an inquiry being carried out on a review of all  
aid applications submitted by Italian growers.
Consumption aids also cost less than forecast (expenditure,
152 m ECU; the initial appropriations were 207 m ECU), as the  
quantities qualifying were lower than expected in both Italy  
and Greece.

- 13 -
d) Oilseeds and protein plants
Consumption of appropriations for oilseeds exceeded forecasts  
(expenditure, 721 m ECU; initial appropriations were  
'  527 m ECU) mainly because of very heavy expenditure on  
production aid for colza, rape and sunflower. This was the  
result of the very heavy harvests in 1982, well above the  
average, and a deterioration of the world market.
e) Fruit and vegetables
In 1982, total expenditure on fruit and vegetables (914 m ECU)  
exceeded the original forecasts (849 m ECU).
The increase in expenditure is the result of market withdrawal  
operations on a larger scale than forecast (expenditure,
192 m ECU; original appropriations, 120 m ECU) relating to the  
1981/82 year as well as to 1982/83·
For 1981/82, products of large unit value (peaches, mandarins,  
and oranges) were withdrawn on a scale larger than in previous  
years.
For 1982/83, the exceptional harvest of table apples engendered  
heavy withdrawal expenditure.
It should also be noted that financial compensation to  
encourage the processing of Community citrus fruit (99 m ECU)  
exceeded original forecasts (80 m ECU).
On the other hand, the consumption of appropriations in respect  
of processed fruit and vegetables, totalling 556 million ECU,  
was very close to the forecast (564 m ECU).

- 14 -
f) Wine
In 1982, expenditure on wine (571 m ECU) exceeded the original  
forecasts (416 m ECU) but this is the net result of opposing 
trends.
On the one hand, with expenditure on distillation gathering  
momentum sharply so as to account for virtually all the  
residual payments of previous years, the original  
appropriations for this purpose proved insufficient  
(expenditure, 390 m ECU; original appropriations, 220 m ECU).
Again, because of average storage exceeding forecasts and  
larger quantities of wine being re-stored, the appropriations  
approved (91 m ECU) fell short of needs (expenditure,
108 m ECU).
On the other hand, delays in payments in respect of obligatory 
distillation of the by-products of wine making meant lower 
consumption of appropriations for this item (expenditure, ,
9 m ECU; original appropriations, 36 m ECU). '
Expenditure in respect of aid to the use of must (31 m ECU)  
also fell short of forecasts (37 m ECU).
g) Tobacco
In the past year, expenditure on tobacco (623 m ECU) fell short  
of the original appropriations (648 m ECU, including 30 m ECU  
in Chapter 100).

- 15 -
"Premiums for tobacco" is by far the largest item, with  
expenditure (575 m ECU) coming very close to the original  
appropriations (587 m ECU, including 30 m ECU in Chapter 100).
The increase in expenditure over previous years is mainly due  
to the enlargement of the Community to include Greece, for  
which the first expenditure in respect of this sector was  
entered in 1982 (205«5 m ECU).
h) Milk and milk products
By the end of the year expenditure on milk and milk products  
came to a sum (3 328 m ECU) well below the appropriations  
(3 930 m ECU).
The main reasons for this were the refund rate - lower than  
expected - and the sharp contraction in exports to non-member  
countries.
For example, exports of butter and butteroil were 29% below 
those for 1981, exports of skimmed-milk powder 34% down, and  
exports of all other milk products 6% down (refund expenditure  
proper, 1 391 m ECU; corresponding original appropriations,
2 098 m ECU).
The decline in exports combined with a substantial increase in  
milk production in 1982 (by 3>5%) led to a sharp expansion of  
stocks by the end of the year, the effect of which, in respect  
of expenditure, will be felt in 1983» and to very heavy  
expenditure to be incurred for the disposal of milk products on  
the internal market. For example, intervention in the form of  
aids for the use of skimmed-milk powder for animal feed  
(753 m ECU) and aid to skimmed-milk processed into casein  
(243 m ECU) exceeded the original appropriations (679 m ECU and  
217 m ECU respectively).

- 16 -
Similarly, measures concerning the disposal of butteroil  
surpluses generated expenditure of 414 million ECU in 1982.
The "Christmas butter" operation, concerning the sale at  
reduced prices of 120 000 tonnes of butter, should also be  
mentioned. The cost of this operation has been estimated at  
142.5 million ECU, of which 57-6 million ECU are chargeable to  
1982, although no appropriations had been made for this purpose.
i) Beef/veal
Expenditure on beef/veal (1 159 m ECU) fell short of the sums  
originally appropriated (l 415 m ECU).
This was a general phenomenon under all headings.
Expenditure on refunds (644 m ECU) was lower than forecast  
(788 m ECU), quantities of meat exported to non-member  
countries having been lower than expected.
Expenditure on storage (541 m ECU) was also lower than the  
original appropriations (417 m ECU) because demand on the  
Community market was strong and this meant less need for  
private or public storage.

- 17 -
Among the intervention schemes other than storage, it may be  
noted that the premium for the slaughter of adult bovine  
animals cost only 8 million ECU, although 25 million ECU had  
been originally appropriated. This was because the amount  
chargeable to the EAGGP was lower than expected in view of  
favourable conditions on the United Kingdom market.
j) Sheep- and goatmeat
Utilization of the appropriations (252 m ECU) for this sector  
exceeded the forecasts (224 m ECU).
This was because of a decline in sheepmeat market prices in  
Great Britain, entailing the payment of heavier slaughter  
premiums than expected, with non-use of storage facilities only  
partly offsetting this.
k) Pigmeat
In 1982, for original appropriations of 159 million ECU,  
expenditure was only 112 million ECU.
Under-utilization of appropriations was mainly the result of  
savings with regard to export refunds (expenditure, 96 m ECU; 
original appropriations, 121 m ECU), as both the refund rates  
and the quantities actually exported fell short of forecasts.
It may also be noted, with regard to intervention operations,  
for which expenditure was only 16 million ECU, that the  
quantities coming under private storage contracts were also  
lower than forecast (original appropriations, 58 m ECU).
l) Eggs and poultry
1982 expenditure (104 m ECU) was below forecasts (116 m ECU).

- 18 -
Despite heavier exports, the savings are mainly accounted for  
by lower refund rates for poultry in particular (refund  
expenditure for poultry, 80 m ECU; original appropriations,  
92 m ECU).
m) Refunds on merchandise deriving from the processing of  
agricultural products
m.l. Refunds adapted for cereals exported in the form of  
certain spirituous beverages.
The total expenditure on refunds (144 m ECU) exceeded the  
original appropriations (85 m ECU). This was mainly  
because the Council adopted (Regulation (EEC) No  
1188/81^·^) provisions differing from those proposed by  
the Commission, which are the ones used for the  
establishment of the budget. The refunds covering  
1975-1981 accounted for the bulk of expenditure in 1981  
and 1982; these payments have stopped; the expenditure  
will decline sharply in 1983·
m.2. Refunds for certain goods deriving from the processing of  
agricultural products.
The under-utilization of appropriations (original  
appropriations, 325 m ECU; actual expenditure, 270 m ECU)  
is accounted for by the fact that world prices for basic  
agricultural products were in fact better than forecast,  
despite their deterioration in the course of the year.

In 1982, the performance of the currencies within the European 
Monetary System was less stable than in 1981 :  in February and
June 1982 the central rates of certain currencies were altered  
within the EMS. The "green" (representative) rates were also  
adapted to narrow the gap between these rates and the central  
rates. Sterling also fluctuated rather widely, and this meant  
wide variations in the MCAs.
From the point of view of financing, developments in the currency  
exchange area generated increased EAGGF guarantee spending in  
respect of the MCAs. From 238.4 million ECU in 1981, expenditure  
under this heading rose to 313*1 million ECU in 1982.

- 20 -
With regard to rates of conversion between the ECU and the  
national currencies, it should be remembered that despite the  
introduction in 1979 of the ECU into the common agricultural 
policy, there is still a dual-rate effect because of the gap  
between the representative rates ("green" rates) fixed by the  
Council and the various values in ECU of the currencies on the  
market. The dual-rate effect is, however, quite different from  
that before 1978, and, for 1982, can be put at about  
180 million ECU.
2.2. Breakdown of expenditure by economic type
The following conclusions can be drawn from the table in Annex 4 :
a) Refunds '
A comparison of 1982 with 1980 shows that the downward trend in  
expenditure on export refunds, already appreciable in 1981,  
continued in 1982, although for different reasons.
Total expenditure of this type, which was 5 209 million ECU in  
1981, was only 5 054 ECU in 1982, a reduction of about 3$*
As a proportion of total expenditure in previous years, the  
share accounted for by refunds was 47*7$ in 1979» 50.3$ in 1980,  
46.8$ in 1981 and only 40.7$ in 1982.
This was mainly accounted for by lower expenditure in the  
following sectors :
- milk products :  1 521 million ECU in 1982 compared with
1 886 million ECU in 1981, a reduction of  
365 million ECU due to lower exports,  
especially of butter;
- beef/veal :  644 million ECU in 1982, compared with
625 million ECU in 1981, a reduction of 
181 million ECU because of a contraction in  
exports of meat;
- cereals :  1 065 million ECU in 1982 compared with
1 206 million ECU in 1981, a reduction of  
141 million ECU due to fairly high world  
prices.

- 21 -
This downward movement was partly offset by an increase in  
expenditure on refunds on other products, including :
- sugar :  744 million ECU in 1982 against
409 million ECU in 1981, an increase of  
335 million ECU occasioned by the decline in  
world market prices;
- non-Annex II products: 414 million ECU in 1982 compared with
282 million ECU in 1981, an increase of  
132 million ECU, due mainly to the payment of  
refunds for exports of cereals-based  
spirituous beverages, most of the refunds  
relating to the 1973-1981 period having been  
paid in 1982 (refunds for cereals exported in  
the form of spirituous beverages :  expenditure  
1981, 41 m ECU; expenditure 1982, 144 m ECU).
b) Intervention
In 1982, intervention for all agricultural sectors came to a  
total of 7 352 million ECU, as against 5 935 million ECU  
in 1981. This was an increase of 1 419 million ECU, or 24#·  
Compared with total expenditure, intervention accounted for a  
share of 59*3# in 1982, while it had only been 53*2# in 1981.
Intervention, broken down by economic nature of the scheme  
concerned, consists of aids to public or private storage,  
withdrawals and similar operations, price compensating aids,  
which are, in fact, aids for the internal market, and lastly,  
guidance premiums.

- 22 -
bl) The most important intervention is price compensating aid. This  
heading covers aids granted on the Community’s internal market  
to ensure that the price chargeable to the consumer is below the  
producers' price and competes with products imported from  
non-member countries, e.g. aids to the production and  
consumption of olive oil, aids to skimmed milk, aids to the  
production of processed fruit and vegetables. Expenditure on  
price compensating aids increased by "5 1%, from 3 632 million ECU  
to 4 769 million ECU in 1982, and their share of total  
expenditure came to 38$ as compared with 33$ in 1981.
This increase in aids was accounted for mainly by milk products  
(l 324 m ECU in 1982 as against 997 m ECU in 1981, i.e. an 
increment of 327 m ECU), tobacco (575 m ECU in 1982 against  
286 m ECU in 1981, i.e. an increment of 289 m ECU), oils and  
fats (l 145 m ECU in 1982 against 971 m ECU in 1981, i.e. an  
increment of 174 m ECU), fruit and vegetables (663 m ECU in 1982  
against 492 m ECU in 1981, i.e. an increment of 171 m ECU),  
sheepmeat (252 m ECU in 1982 against 192 m ECU in 1981, i.e. an  
increment of 60 m ECU) and, lastly, cotton (96 m ECU in 1982  
against 552 m ECU in 1981, i.e. an increment of 41 m ECU).
On the other hand, less was spent, in particular, on beef/veal 
(99 m ECU in 1982 as against 116 m ECU in 1981, i.e. 17 m ECU 
less).
Annex 7, which gives the volume of the aids and their breakdown,  
shows that, for the products mentioned above, the increase in  
expenditure for tobacco, oils and fats, sheepmeat and cotton, is  
due to an increase in production aids and, for milk products and  
fruit and vegetables, to the granting of more substantial  
processing aids.
b2) The guidance premiums, which concern only milk products and
beef/veal, declined substantially in 1982, from 223 million ECU  
in 1981 to 162 million ECU, and now only account for 1.3$ of the  
total expenditure, as against 2.1$ in 1981.

- 23 -
b3) Storage intervention covers both private storage costs and
public storage costs. Details of this type of expenditure are  
given in Annex 5· Storage costs expenditure totalled  
1 818 million ECU in 1982 (l 631 m ECU in 1981), of which  
787 million ECU represents intervention for private storage  
costs (529 m ECU in 1981). Sugar storage costs account for more  
than half (490 m ECU)^ of the figure of 787 million ECU.
Details of public storage are given in paragraph 2.3 and Annex 6.
b4) Intervention in respect of withdrawals and similar operations  
increased substantially, rising, for fruit and vegetables, from  
106 million ECU to 192 million ECU and for wine, mainly in the  
form of distillation, from 315 million ECU to 391 million ECU.
c) Expenditure in respect of the monetary compensatory amounts
(MCAs), which had been steadily declining for some years, rose  
again in 1982, from 238 million ECU (2.1$ of total guarantee  
expenditure) to 313 million ECU (2.5$ of total guarantee  
expenditure). This percentage is very close to that for 1980  
(2.6$), but still below the figures for 1 9 7 9 (6.8$),
1978 (10.5$) and 1977 (17*4$).
The main expenditure in 1982 in this sector, as compared with 
1981, was due to the various currency changes made in the course  
of the year and to the adjustment of the central rates and the  
decisions for dismantling the MCAs approved by the Council for  
the 1982/83 marketing year.
2.3. Public storage (cf. Annexes 5 and 6)
The table in Annex 6 shows an increase in stocks for almost all  
products.
For all cereals, stocks rose from 4*4 million tonnes at the end of  
1981 to nearly 10 million tonnes at the end of 1982, rye being the  
only product stocks of which declined. This situation was due to  
continuing high production since the 1979/80 marketing year, well  
above average, despite the export of large quantities of cereals.
It is recalled that storage costs in the sugar sector are covered by the
receipt of storage levies paid by sugar manufactures (see Annex 10).

- 24 -
It must also be noted that in this sector too, public storage costs  
are only slightly higher than in 1981 (380 m ECU as against  
342 m ECU in 198l), although quantities in store at 31 December  
doubled between the two years. This paradox is explained by the  
fact that expenditure is not only a function of the actual costs of  
the product, but also of the length of time of storage and the sales  
price.
Stocks of milk products also increased, with skimmed-milk powder 
rising from 298 000 tonnes at the end of 1981 to 605 000 tonnes at  
the end of 1982 and butter rising from 14 000 tonnes at the end of  
1981 to 139 000 tonnes at the end of 1982, the reason for this being 
a very sharp increase in milk production in 1982 (3»5%) and a 
decline in exports.
Stocks of leaf tobacco and processed tobacco occurred for the first  
time in 1982 because of the accession of Greece; stocks of baled  
tobacco declined, on the other hand, because the tender procedures  
were expedited.
As a result of the increase in stocks, the capital immobilized also  
increased, from 1 875 million ECU at the end of 1981 to  
4 Oil million ECU at the end of 1982.
2.4* Corrections to be made to the breakdown of expenditure by Member  
States on monetary compensatory amounts (MCAs)
The Council agreed in April 1976, on the basis of Article 2a of  
Regulation (EEC) No 974/71 concerning the application of monetary  
compensatory amounts, that negative MCAs would be paid by the  
exporting country on behalf of any requesting importing country.
This agreement is still in force.
Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 1172/76, of 17 May 1976, which set  
up a financing facility, stipulates that, for the purposes of  
establishing net balances by Member States, the monetary  
compensatory amounts are to be attributed to the country where  
changes in exchange rates have created the need to make the payments.

- 25 -
The table below shows the corrections to be made as a result of this  
rule.

2.5· Assessment of the total cost of the Guarantee Section  
2.5*1* General development of expenditure

1977 6.830,4 22,3
1978 8.672,7 27,0
1979 10.440,7 20,4
1980 11.314,9 8,4
1981 10.980,2 - 3,0
1982 12.405,6 13,0
The annual rate of increase in expenditure, which from 1976 to  
1979 was running at an average 23$, fell to 8*6$ for the 1979-1981  
period.
But in 1982 expenditure rose again, from 10 980 million ECU in  
1981 to nearly 12 406 million ECU, an increase of 13$·
The overall increase in expenditure in 1982 was a result of  
appreciably higher Community costs mainly for sugar, fruit and  
vegetables, tobacco, oils and fats, wine and non-Annex II  
products. Production of most Community agricultural products was  
heavy in 1982, and this was not offset by a corresponding increase  
in internal consumption, which showed little, if any, increase.

- 27 -
2.5*2. Agricultural revenue
The common agricultural policy generates expenditure, but is also  
a source of Community revenue, in the form of the ordinary levies  
and the sugar levies, which totalled 2 227*8 million ECU in 1982.

TOTAL 2.137,7: 2.283,3:2.143,5:2. 002,3:1*747,4:2.227,8
The figures show that these resources, which declined between 1978  
and 1981, increased again by 27*5$» total revenues rising from  
1 747 million ECU in 1981 to nearly 2 228 million ECU in 1982.
The recovery in revenue is due to the substantial improvement in  
ordinary levies (20.3$) as a result of the very sharp increase,  
from 40 to 60$, in cereals levy rates as world market prices  
sagged. In respect of the sugar levy, it is due to the heavy  
Community production of sugar, entailing increased storage  
levies. In addition, the sharp decline in world market prices  
made the disposal of sugar more difficult and more costly, which,  
given the system of co-responsibility in the form of production  
levies on A and B quota sugar, led to a sharp increase in these  
levies.

- 28 -
In this connection, Annex 10 shows the ratio of storage levies  
charged to storage cost reimbursements made since 1968/69» by  
sugar marketing year. The aim of the common organization of the  
sugar market is equilibrium, taking several years together,  
between the levies and the reimbursement of storage costs.
2.5«3· Cost as a proportion of GDP
A comparison of total EAGGF guarantee expenditure in 1982 with the  
most significant indicator of the general performance of the  
economy - Community gross domestic product at market prices  
(GDP) - shows that the upward movement of expenditure, after  
slowing down in 1981, gathered a little momentum again in 1982.
A more detailed analysis of changes since 1976 (cf. Annex 8) shows  
that the increase, steady until 1979 (0.44$ in 1976, 0.59$ in  
1979), was followed in 1980 and 1981 by a decline; in 1982 the  
ratio again rose a little (0.50$ in 1981, 0.52$ in 1982).
The corresponding figures after deduction of agricultural charges  
(net expenditure) are 0.35$ in 1976, 0.47$ for 1979 and 1980,
0.42$ for 1981 and 0.43$ for 1982.
3. Changes in the regulations governing the EAGGF Guarantee Section  
3*1. Council legislation
a) Measures ranking as intervention to stabilize the agricultural  
markets, and therefore financed by the Guarantee Section, are  
listed in the annex to Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78^^. This  
list is regularly updated to include measures adopted, extended  
or repealed since the last amendment.
The last updating was made by Regulation (EEC) No 1262/82 of
(2)17 May 1982 .  A further amendment was proposed in
January 1983·

(2) OJ No L 148, 27.05.1982, p. 1

- 29 -
b) As a result of changes in the regulations governing the common  
organizations, allowing public storage of certain products  
previously excluded from this facility (alcohol produced from  
certain wine distillation operations, and sheepmeat), the  
Council decided, in Regulation (EEC) No 3045/82, of  
15 November 1982^, to adapt Regulation (EEC) No 3247/81^  
on the financing by the EAGGF Guarantee Section of certain  
intervention measures, in particular those consisting of the  
buying-in, storage and sale of agricultural products by 
intervention agencies.
3.2. Commission legislation
a) Pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 3247/81 (referred to above) and
in particular Article 7 of this Regulation, the Commission(  )
adopted, on 2 June 1982, Regulation (EEC) No 1365/82v . This
regulation determines the financing by the EAGGF Guarantee  
Section, on a flat-base basis, of expenditure incurred in the  
free distribution of fruit and vegetables withdrawn from the  
market by producers' organizations or bought in by intervention  
agencies.
b) On 12 October 1982, the Commission also adopted Regulation (EEC)
/  (4)No 2723/82 ,  determining the rate of interest to be used for
calculating the costs of financing intervention measures 
comprising buying-in, storage and disposal. In view of current  
interest rates, the rate was kept at for 1983.
c) The Commission also updated the flat-rate amounts dating from 
1 January 1980 for physical operations connected with the  
storage and processing of agricultural products bought in. A  
Commission decision of 15 November 1982 updated these amounts as  
from 1 January 1982. The decision entailed an increase in  
relevant expenditure of about 21 million ECU per year.

- 30 -
D) The first paragraph of Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78  
stipulates that intervention stocks must be valued at the end of  
the year at the average buying-in price. Consequently, the  
Commission adopted on 7 January 1983 Regulation (EEC) No  
44/83^ fixing the prices to be referred to for the purposes  
of calculating the value of the agricultural products stored at  
31 December 1982 and to be carried over to 1983· The second  
paragraph of Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78, allowing  
of financial depreciation of quantities held in intervention at  
31 December, was not used in 1982.

chargeable to the EAGGF Guarantee Section.
4.2. Commission Regulation (EEC) No 580/78 provides detailed rules for
(2)the operation of a system of advance payments .  These rules and
those relating to the charging of the member countries'
disbursements to the Community budget are set out in Title VIII of
(3)the Financial Regulation' ' (cf. Tenth Financial Report (1980),  
pp. 20 to 22).
4.3· As for 1981, data sent in every month by the Member States on the

5· Advance payments to the Member States(1)
5·!· Decisions in 1982
In respect of 1982, the Commission adopted 17 decisions on advance  
payments, four of which were extraordinary and one of which was  
supplementary for December. Among the extraordinary advance  
payments, three concerned a single Member State following the  
under-estimating of expenditure for July, October and November, the  
other, for December, concerned five Member States, and was the  
result of the very rapid increase in financial needs at the end of  
the year.
The latter decision, and the supplementary advance payment, resulted  
from the uncertainty as to appropriations remaining available for 
1982 at the time of the decisions on advance payments for December,  
since a procedure for adoption of the supplementary and amending  
budget designed to reduce the EAGGF guarantee appropriations was  
under way.
With regard to the milk non-marketing and dairy herd conversion 
premiums (Regulation (EEC) No 1078/77)» 60$ of which are chargeable  
to the Guarantee Section and 40$ to the Guidance Section, the  
Commission adopted 12 decisions on advance payments. In this  
report, this expenditure is included in its entirety in respect of  
cash aspects but only up to 60$ in respect of budgetary aspects.
5.2. Funds available in the Member States during the year
Total funds placed at the disposal of the Member States for
(2)expenditure to be disbursed in 1982 were 12 592 million ECU ,
12 531.7 million ECU for the Guarantee Section and 60*3 million ECU
(3)for the Guidance Section .
(1) See Annexes 11 and 12.
(2) Not including direct payments of 4*8 m ECU.
(3) These funds available constitute the share of the Guidance Section (40$)  
in the milk non-marketing and dairy herd conversion premiums.

Utilization of these refunds was 12 459·4 million ECU, thus leaving  
a balance at 31*12.1982 of 132.6 million ECU, of which 
130.9 million ECU were for the Guarantee Section.
5.3. Rate of utilization of funds available
The ratio of expenditure paid out in 1982 and the funds at the  
disposal of the Member States for this purpose show that 98.9$ of  
the funds placed at their disposal were used (Table No 6, column f).
A comparison of the average of the funds available to cover  
expenditure in each month with the average of the balances available  
after payment indicates an average rate of utilization of 88.6$ 
(Table No 7, column c), well above the corresponding rate for 1981  
(81.3$).
5»4· Direct payments
The Commission makes direct payments to operators in certain cases.  
These are payments for certain measures which are not traditional  
market operations but are designed, for example, to broaden the  
scope for disposal of products in the olive oil and hemp and flax  
sectors, financed on the basis of sums withheld from producers.  
Following a judgment of the Court of Justice, compensatory payments  
also had to be made to certain grits and maize operators.
Thus, in 1982, the Commission made the following direct payments to  
beneficiaries :
a) a sum of 624 528.71 ECU against appropriations carried over from  
1981,
b) a sum of 2 104 904*54 ECU against 1982 appropriations.
A sum of 2 645 437*27 ECU was also committed in 1982 and carried  
over automatically to 1983*
6. Administration of appropriations
On 10 May 1982, the Council approved the carryover of "non-automatic"  
appropriations of 161 700 000 ECU, including 100 million ECU for the milk  
products sectors for schemes to scale down public stocks of skimmed-milk  
powder and 61.7 million ECU for various sectors, designed to cover  
expenditure resulting from reduced-price deliveries of certain products to  
Poland.

in fact be used as soon as they are received.

6.2. Transfers of appropriations
Given the expenditure situation, the Commission proposed and the  
budgetary authority approved certain transfers from the EAGGF  
Guarantee Section.
These were carried out as follows :
- 12.5 million ECU from Chapter 10 (cereals and rice) and
13 million ECU from Chapter 21 (beef/veal) to Chapter 95 to cover  
the financing of emergency aid for Lebanon (10 m ECU) and Poland  
(15.5 m ECU),
- 20.3 million ECU from Chapter 17 (tobacco) to Chapter 69 to cover  
the payment of special aids in the raw tobacco sector following 
the earthquake in Italy in November 1980,
- 44.828 million ECU in Chapter 20 (milk and milk products) and  
195.363 million ECU in Chapter 100 (provisional appropriations) to  
a number of other chapters of the Community budget replacing the  
preliminary draft supplementary and amending budget No 1/82 which  
had been rejected by the Council.
In February 1983 the Commission proposed, and the Council approved  
in March 1983 , a set of chapter-to-chapter transfers within Titles I  
and II for a total of 408.2 million ECU. This type of transfer is  
inherent in the EAGGF Guarantee Section financing system, namely  
decentralized payments at national level by the use of Community  
advance payments. Thus, only after the governments have made their  
disbursements is the Commission in a position to ascertain  
accurately the scale of expenditure for each agricultural policy  
measure, and therefore for each budgetary heading. The amounts  
involved in these transfers were fairly large because of the  
appreciable short-term changes occurring during the year, in  
particular with regard to oilseeds, fresh fruit and vegetables and  
tobacco as a result of the heavy 1982 harvests, and in the processed  
fruit and vegetables, textile plants and wine sectors, because of  
the speed-up of payments.

6.3. Expenditure
6.3.1. Expenditure charged for 1982 totals 12 405.6 million ECU. In
addition to expenditure declared by the Member States as paid in  
1982 (12 400.8 m ECU), this amount includes direct payments of  
4.8 million ECU.
A detailed analysis of expenditure by sector is given in the first  
part of this report in Table No 1 and in Annex II. Table No 9  
below gives a breakdown of expenditure by Member State.
This breakdown definitely cannot be treated as a reliable  
indication of actual shares of the Member States, since payment  
lead-times vary widely from Member State to Member State and since  
expenditure by paying agencies in any given Member State cannot  
really be treated as peculiar to this Member State because the  
Community is a unified economic area for agricultural products.  
Thus, for example, certain export refunds for products from one  
Member State are paid by another Member State.

TITLE III
7. INVESTIGATIONS, IRREGULARITIES AND RELATED WORK
7.1. Verification of expenditure chargeable to the EAGGE Guarantee Section  
The Member States' authorities must verify that the operations  
financed by the EAGGF have actually taken place and that the  
requirements have been complied with.
To help the authorities combat any improper and/or fraudulent use of  
funds paid by the Guarantee Section, the Commission has legal  
instruments which, in addition to those concerning on-the-spot  
auditing in connection with accounts clearance, enable it to carry 
out selective checks and to organize special investigations where  
there is presumption of irregularity or fraud.
7.2. Selective checks
In 1982, Financial Control completed a selective check in the Member  
States concerning intervention in the fruit and vegetable sector.
This operation, the results of which were notified to the Member  
States, suggested a number of improvements to the national  
management and auditing systems and to Community legislation.  
Thereafter, Financial Control organized a further series of  
selective checks with regard to aspects of the physical verification  
of public intervention stocks. This operation was completed in  
early 1983.
7.3. Specific investigations carried out by the Member States at the  
request of the Commission
Community law allows the Commission to ask a Member State to carry  
out inquiries relating to operations financed by the Fund,  
particularly if it takes the view that irregularities have taken  
place at the expense of the EAGGF Guarantee Section.
In 1982, on the basis of information from various sources, the  
Commission asked the Member States to carry out such investigations  
on 14 occasions.
The investigations concerned the following sectors :  fruit and
vegetables ( 5), milk products ( 4), beef/veal (3), cereals and wine
(1 each).

- 43 -
The breakdown among Member States was as follows :
:  B :  DK :  D :  F :  GR :  IRL :  I :  L :  NL :  UK :  Total :
s  1  :  0  :  1  :  1  :  0  :  1  :  6  :  0  :  1  :  3  :  14:
The total number of investigations organized was the same as that in
the two previous years, which shows that the Commission is pursuing  
its efforts in this field and that it attaches considerable  
importance to this type of investigation.
Of the 14 investigations started, 12 are still under way and no  
estimate can now be made of the total sum involved.
Of the nine investigations still under way at the end of 1981, three  
have been completed. For one of them, the recovery procedure is  
still in hand.
7.4· Mutual information system provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 283/72
The Member States and the Commission's staff have introduced and  
developed a mutual information system involving :
a) prompt exchange of information on irregularities which are  
liable to exert effects very rapidly outside the Member State  
concerned and those revealing new fraudulent practices (Article  
4 of Regulation (EEC) No 283/72).
The number of notifications under the prompt exchange of  
information system in 1982 was as follows :
:  B:  DDK:  FGRIRLILNLUKCOMTotal

••:100:120111025011110
Total1981 J  4
••:  20:  0031006016
Total1982 :  8:  00:  3000013116

- 44 -
The number of notifications under the system shows little  
change, and this indicates that cooperation between the Member  
States and the Commission is effective.
The notifications under the system concern mainly beef/veal and  
milk products (butter and cheese).
b) Mutual assistance organized under Regulation (EEC) No 1468/81  
"to ensure the proper implementation of the customs and  
agricultural regulations".
Under this arrangement, the competent authorities of each Member  
State send to the other Member States any information hampering 
or liable to hamper the proper implementation of the customs and  
agricultural regulations and send to the Commission information 
on merchandise involved in fraudulent operations and on the  
methods used.

- 45 -
Regulation (EEC) No 1468/81 is administered by the Customs Union 
Service. The Directorate-General for Agriculture and the  
Directorate-General for Financial Control collaborate when  
agricultural regulations are involved.
7*5* Irregularities detected
Irregularities are notified on a quarterly basis by the Member  
States to the Commission under Articles 3 and 5 of Regulation (EEC)  
No 283/72. Details of the notifications are given in Annex 17«
For the third year running, the number of irregularities shows an  
increase and is well above the average for previous years.
The table below does not include notifications concerning the milk  
non-marketing ptemium. This scheme was started only in 1977 and is  
not operated in all the member countries (eight countries in 1982).  
In addition, a considerable proportion of the cases constitute  
irregularities which are not fraudulent.

Here too, the number of cases notified has risen steadily, from 40  
in 1979 for five Member States to 176 in 1982 for six Member States  
(see Annex 19)·
The uneven distribution in numbers of cases of irregularities  
notified by the Member States persists.
The fact that the number of cases communicated is higher in certain  
Member States does not necessarily imply that fraud i s more prevalent  
in those Member States than in the rest of the Community.

- 47 -
7.6.The sums involved
The breakdown by type of expenditure is as follows :
1982 1981
54.88$
56.87$
8.25$Refunds 13*14$ 
Intervention 86.26$  
MCAs 0.60$
In 1982, the fruit and vegetables sector alone accounted for 78$ of  
the total of amounts which should not have been paid.
There were 28 cases of irregularities, involving an amount of  
27*15 million ECU for 1978 and 1979» in connection with the  
Community aid schemes for the processing of tomatoes. The cases  
were discovered after the relevant years and it took the Member  
State concerned some time to cariy out the appropriate investiga­
tions before notifying the Commission. The amount concerned will  
probably be reduced as a result of the legal actions now in hand.
7*7* Recovery of amounts wrongly paid
A list of the sums recovered is given in Annex 18.
The amounts of money recovered at the end of the 1982 financial  
exercice (0.7 m ECU) may appear small in relation to the sums paid  
in error. However, account must be taken of the large amounts  
involved in the case of aid for processing of tomatoes referred to  
in point 7*6 above. Recovery operations cannot begin until after  
completion of the judicial enquiries currently in progress in Italy,  
and the resulting court cases.
7*8. Meetings of the EAGGF irregularities working group
This group meets to review with the Member States' representatives  
responsible for auditing and investigations the cases of presumed  
and definite irregularities. The group has been asked to work out  
what action should be taken with regard to prevention and  
prosecution. Apart from the group's regular meetings, a number of  
special meetings were organized in 1982 attended only by the experts  
of the Member States concerned with specific problems. At these  
meetings the action to be taken to prevent smuggling of agricultural  
products on the Belgo-Netherlands frontier was studied. The  
products concerned were beef/veal, eggs, poultry and certain  
products for use in feed.

- 48 -
These fraudulent operations, which consisted of false declarations  
of quantities, or sometimes of the complete absence of the  
declaration, involved the MCAs, and built up as a result of the  
diverging fluctuations of the currencies of the two countries in 
1982, which had led to the introduction of MCAs between the two  
Member States for the first time. Cooperation between the  
Commission's staff and the national authorities led to more rigorous  
checks at customs stations in both Belgium and the Netherlands.
7.9· Computer treatment of irregularities
A meeting with national experts was held in 1982 to consider the  
best approach to the establishment of a computerized irregularities  
file. Consultation among the Commission's various departments led  
to agreement on the main lines of an action programme, but, for 
budgetary reasons, action was deferred. The question has been  
solved under the 1983 budget, and preparatory work has now begun.
7*10. Training of EAGGP inspectors
In 1982, as in previous years, the Commission's staff organized, as  
part of its arrangements to help national inspectors responsible for  
operations relating to the EAGGP Guarantee Section financing system,  
a seminar to discuss and contrast views and experience in connection  
with the practical implementation of Directive 77/435/EEC for the  
safeguard of Community funds.
7»11· Audit of commercial documents
Directive 77/435/EEC, the "audit directive", concerned the  
institution in each Member State of regular and systematic  
verification of the commercial documents of firms the receipts  
and/or fees of which, connected with the EAGGP, have exceeded  
120 895 ECU in the year before the verification. Experience has  
shown that most irregularities against the EAGGP have been  
discovered in the course of subsequent audit work.
Except for Greece, which is now making the necessary implementing  
arrangements, all the Member States have adopted the national 
regulations for the full implementation of the directive.

- 49 -
TITLE IV
8. CLEARANCE OF ACCOUNTS
In 1982 the EAGGP staff again made every effort to make good the time lost  
with regard to accounts clearance work and to make improvements in the  
clearance procedure. This work has been carried out in strict cooperation  
with the Financial Control and Legal Service staffs.
On 14 January 1983, the Commission adopted its accounts clearance  
decisions relating to expenditure in 1976 and 1977. The stage of  
"dialogue" with the Member States on problems connected with 1978 and 1979  
was started in August 1982, when official letters were sent. It continued  
in 1983 with bilateral talks with the various delegations, and draft  
decisions will go to the Commission in the course of 1983·
With regard to 1980 and 1981, the EAGGF intends to complete by the summer  
of 1983 documentary and on-the-spot checks started in the autumn of 1982.  
The following "dialogue" phase should be completed by the end of 1983» so  
that draft decisions can go to the Commission in early 1984«
For expenditure declared for 1982, verification on-the-spot should be  
carried out in the last quarter of 1983·
8.1. The 1976 and 1977 accounts
In an effort to make good some of the time lost, the accounts for  
1976 and 1977 were audited together, so that the total amount  
involved is 12.4 billion ECU. The relevant work was carried out by  
the responsible departments within one year for both sets of  
accounts.
The following points should be stressed ;
- the dialogue procedure between the EAGGF and the Member States,  
introduced for the first time for the 1974 + 1975 accounts  
clearances, was again used for 1976 + 1977· The purpose of this  
procedure is to sift out as far as possible all disputes with  
regard to the implementation of Community regulations and to  
provide the Commission with the fullest information before  
adopting its rulings.

- 50 -
The procedure has substantially improved cooperation between the  
EAGGF staff and the Member States;
- in its decisions on accounts clearance for 1976^ and
(2)1977 ,  the Commission, when assessing disputes, was guided by
the effective application of Community law by the Member States.
In a number of cases, expenditure was allowed for EAGGF financing  
although not all Community requirements had been complied with to  
the letter by the Member States.
In such cases, the EAGGF took account once again of extraordinary 
situations or special circumstances arising in certain specific  
cases. The EAGGF, nonetheless, was satisfied that there had in no  
case been a relaxation of control and that the expenditure had  
been made properly.
On this occasion, the Commission again stresses that acceptance of  
such expenditure definitely does not mean that the Commission  
acknowledges that the administrative practice followed by the  
Member State concerned is in line with the relevant provisions.
It is therefore clear that the Member States concerned must change  
their management of the measures concerned in line with the  
Commission's observations in order to comply fully with Community  
law;
- the financial results of the accounts clearance work as a whole 
can be summarized as follows (cf. Annexes 20 to 22) (3):
a) the expenditure declared for the clearance of the 1976 accounts 
totalled 5 379*2 million ECU, while the expenditure charged for  
that year was 5 362.5 million ECU.
After corrections made on the basis of accounts clearance work,  
Community financing was reduced by 69*2 million ECU, about 1.3$ of  
expenditure declared.

OJ No L 40, 12.02.1983, p. 40-63·
Parities applicable on 14 June 1982.

- 51 -
The clearance of the 1976 accounts therefore releases, under  
Article 99 of the Financial Regulation, an additional amount of  
52.5 million ECU for the current year.
b) The expenditure declared for the clearance of the 1977  
accounts, not including measures taken in accordance with  
Regulation (EEC) No 1078/77, totalled 6 628.8 million ECU,  
while the expenditure charged was 6 614*4 million ECU. After  
corrections on the basis of accounts clearance work, Community 
financing was reduced by 70.1 million ECU, about 1.1% of 
expenditure declared.
Under Article 99 of the Financial Regulation, the clearance of the  
1977 accounts therefore released an additional amount of  
55*7 million ECU for the current year.
8.2. The 1978 and 1979 accounts
Again to save time, the documentary evidence for 1978 and 1979 and  
the on-the-spot checks were carried out together. A total of  
18.88 billion ECU was checked. All the main paying agencies were  
visited for checks in respect of th main categories of expenditure.  
At the end of the dialogue phase with the Member States and after 
consultation of the Fund Committee on the results of the checks and  
the draft decisions, the Commission plans to adopt decisions as  
early as possible in 1983 on the final clearance of the accounts.
It must be remembered in this connection that because of additional  
investigations on various items of expenditure for preceding years,  
which have been allowed subject to reservation by the Commission,  
the accounts clearance work, especially for 1978, is a good deal  
heavier. The Commission also had to await the judgments of the  
Court of Justice in Cases No 45/82, No 61/82 and No 60/82 before  
reaching final conclusions in similar cases. These judgments were  
handed down on 15 March 1983 and all the complaints of the Member  
States concerned were rejected (cf. point 8.4 of the Eleventh  
Financial Report).
(5)

- 52 -
8.3 The 1980 and 1981 accounts
Inspection of documents and the visits are now being made, so that  
the dialogue phase can begin during 1983. However, most of the work  
for 1980 and 1981 - the two years are being taken together - can be  
carried out only in 1984* The Commission's formal decisions should  
be adopted also in 1984.
As regards the prompt submission of accounts clearance declarations 
by the Member States, Table No 10 below shows that the situation for  
1981 has improved over that of 1980 for only a few Member States.

maintained.
8.4· Complaints from the Member States in respect of the 1976 and 1977  
accounts clearance decisions
As mentioned above, the Court of Justice gave rulings  
on 15 March 1983 with regard to complaints from Italy and the  
Netherlands concerning the 1974 and 1975 accounts clearances, and  
dismissed all the complaints.

- 54 -
Luxembourg and Italy have submitted complaints against the 1976 and  
1977 accounts clearances.
In Case No 49/83» Luxembourg contests the non-recognition of certain 
expenditure in the wine sector. 9 639 938 Flux from the 1976  
exercise and 5 149 799 Flux from the 1977 exercise are involved.
In Case No 55/83» Italy requests the recognition of 8 461 391 059  
Lit for distillation of table wine, and of 401 250 000 Lit spent on  
the publicity campaign in the beef sector, which were refused in the  
1976 exercise.
In Case No 56/83» Italy requests the recognition of 9 368 828 535  
Lit for distillation of table wine, and 543 747 547 Lit for the  
costs of financing for the month of December quantities of cereals  
transferred to Italy, which were refused in the 1977 exercise.
8.5* Strengthening of preventive action in connection with the audit of  
EAGGF guarantee expenditure
Experience since 1977 gained in accounts clearance work shows that  
preventive action designed to ensure proper implementation in  
accordance with Community regulations by the Member States must be  
strengthened.
The purpose of this action is to ensure better applicability of the  
agricultural provisions of the Community having financial  
implications and the improvement and strengthening of audit  
provisions in the Community regulations.
Over the years the number of questions raised both by Member States  
and by operators concerning the interpretation of rules under the  
common agricultural policy having financial implications has  
steadily increased. Since 1981, important interpretative questions  
raised by one Member State have been regularly sent in appropriate  
forms to all the other Member States for information, with the view  
of the Commission's staff as to the answers to these questions.

8.6. Systems audit
The Commission keeps under permanent review, with a view to their  
improvement, the methods it uses for the verification of the EAGGF's  
Guarantee Section expenditure. The most efficient way of verifying  
heavy expenditure consists in the use of the systems audit method.
In June 1982, the services of the EAGGF, with the participation of  
Financial Control, organized a seminar in Brussels on systems  
auditing of the EAGGF Guarantee Section attended by experts in  
various fields. Although the seminar was not empowered to take  
formal decisions, it was noted that most of those attending felt  
that this method should be adopted.
Thereafter, the Commission services tried out systems auditing for a  
specific EAGGF scheme :  refunds on cereals exported in the form of
whisky. This scheme, which ended only in 1983» has shown that  
systems auditing is a suitable method for verifying EAGGF guarantee  
expenditure. It has advantages both for the Commission and for the  
Member States, in particular in that it enables the latter to  
improve their systems with a view to better control.
The Commission proposes to use systems auditing to verify  
expenditure on export refunds for the entire range of agricultural  
products for 1982 and subsequent year.

8.7· Special report from the Court of Auditors
On 12 October 1982, the Court of Auditors adopted, under  
Article 206a(4) of the EEC Treaty, a special report on the clearance  
of the accounts of the EAGGF Guarantee Section (structure and  
operation of the system) The report had been sent first to
the Commission on 7 April 1982. The Commission's replies to the  
Court's comments were annexed to the report as published.
8.8. Memorandum
The Commission's staff have presented a completely revised  
Memorandum concerning the submission of documents by the Member  
States. Under Regulation (EEC) No 1723/72, the Memorandum is used  
as an adjunct to the standardized and comparable presentation of the  
documents required for accounts clearances purposes. This document,  
No VI/38/83,  supersedes all previous documents; it is regularly  
updated to take account of changes in instruments having an impact  
on expenditure under the common agricultural policy. The objective  
is to facilitate the work of clearing the accounts of the Member  
States and to enable documents to be sent in more quickly to the  
Commission.

TITLE V
9. FINANCING OF COMMUNITY FOOD AID FOR PRODUCTS FALLING UNDER THE COMMON  
ORGANIZATION OF MARKETS
9*1· Main features of Community food aid  
9*1*1· General situation
The Council adopted the following Community food aid programmes in  
1982 :
- 1 million tonnes of cereals by Decisions 82/270/EEC of  
26.4*1982^ and 82/836/EEC of 3*12.1982^;
- 150 000 tonnes of skimmed-milk powder by Regulation (EEC)
No 1037/82 and 1038/82 of 26.4*1982^;
- 45 000 tonnes of butteroil by Regulation (EEC) No 1039/82 and  
No 1040/82 of 26.4.1982^;
- 10 000 tonnes of sugar, of which 6 086 tonnes under the  
convention with UNRWA and 3 914 tonnes for various developing  
countries.
On 31*12.1982, there were still 340 000 tonnes of cereals,
65 000 tonnes of skimmed-milk powder and 25 000 of butteroil to be  
implemented.
To cope with special and emergency situations in certain  
non-member countries, it has also been decided to provide food aid  
of 7 034 tonnes of red kidney beans and 12 378 tonnes of vegetable 
oils.
An exceptional food aid operation was also approved by the Council  
on 21.12.1981 in Regulation (EEC) No 3 7 2 3 / 8 1 ^ The  
appropriations totalled 40 million ECU to be used by 31.12.1982.  
Virtually all this amount was in fact spent and used for the  
delivery of various food products such as cereals, vegetable oils,  
legumes and sugar to the least developed countries (LLDCs). The  
cereals and rice were consigned through the intervention agencies  
of the Member States.
(1) OJ No L 120, 01.05.1982
(2) OJ No L 352, 14.12.1982
(3) OJ No L 375, 29.12.1981.

- 58 -
Expenditure of 14 460 930.03 ECU was charged during 1982. For the  
other products, the Commission's staff made the consignments  
directly and paid the successful tenderers a total of  
24 754 912.85 ECU. The balance, 784 157.12 ECU was not used and  
was cancelled (cf. Annex 27)· These operations were carried out  
on the basis of world prices, the amounts corresponding to the  
refunds not being included in the appropriations of 40 million ECU.
Independently of Community food aid as such, the Member States'  
annual participation (1982) under the 1980 Food Aid Convention,  
implemented on 1 July 1980 for a period of one year and renewed  
until 30 June 1983, totals about 722 000 tonnes of cereals  
(national aid under the Convention).
All these aids ranked for Community financing, full or partial  
according to case, through the charging to the EAGGF guarantee  
budget of the amounts corresponding to the refunds, the equivalent  
of the aids expressed in world prices being charged to Chapter 92  
(Community aids) or the national budgets (national aid under the  
Covention or outside it).
This Title is concerned solely with expenditure under Chapter 92  
of the budget of the European Communities, not including items  
9250 (expenditure under the Convention between the EEC and UNRVA),  
item 9270 (exceptional implementing measures) and item 9271  
(quality control of products supplied as food aid), as these items  
are managed by another department (Directorate-General for  
development).
9.1.2. Mobilization procedure
The products to be supplied as food aid are normally mobilized  
under the common organizations of markets.
„.ciÎL

- 59 -
As a rule mobilization takes the form of a tendering procedure,  
whether the products come from public intervention stocks or are  
bought on the Community market. In the former case, the call for  
tenders covers freighting and any processing required as well, in  
the latter it covers the value of the merchandise plus the other  
costs mentioned.
Exceptionally, the products may be bought on the Community or  
world market by private contract (emergencies, non-availability on  
the Community market, etc.). Community financing may be f.o.b.,  
c.i.f. or free at destination within the beneficiary country,  
depending on the terms laid down by the Council when the annual  
programmes or individual schemes are adopted.
9.1.3· Food supplied
The table below gives figures for the food supplied by group of  
products in 1982, based on tonnages delivered in 1982 at least to  
f.o.b. stage.

Total deliveries gathered momentum in 1981 and this continued in  
1982, although deliveries of cereals slowed down a little. This  
was one of the reasons why total expenditure for 1982, at  
536 936 076.05 ECU, was relatively high, though 10.7^ down on  
1981. The breakdown is as follows (cf. Annex 28) :
- expenditure declared by the Member States :  468 594 783*02 ECU
- direct payments made by the Commission's
staff :  68 341 293*03 ECU

9*1.4· Payments
Food aid payments are made through the intervention agencies on  
presentation by the successful tenderer of the appropriate  
documents. The provision of the necessary funds for the Member  
States under Chapter 92 was made by the technique of monthly  
advance payments in a similar way to the Guarantee Section.

- 61 -
However, for products bought on the world market, the payments  
were made directly by the Commission. The contracts concerning  
the funding of aid in the form of non-traditional agricultural  
products (olive oil, sunflower) bought on the Community market 
were also handled by the Commission's staff and inter alia under 
operations for least advanced countries (cf. 9*1*1·)·
9*2. Cash position
9*2.1. Advance payments
The advance payments requested by the Member States and approved  
by the Commission totalled 493 940 735*83 ECU for 1982 (see  
Annex 24, col. b).
The table below gives a breakdown by Member State of the advance  
payments approved, the expenditure made and the rate of  
utilization of the advance payments.

Financial Report (cf. p. 93 Annex 20, col. e), a sum of 21 393 824.33 ECU  
(ECU rate valid for advance payments of January 1982, namely that of  
2 0.1 1.1 9 8 1 .)
(2) Expenditure declared by the Member States.

- 62 -
Comparison of these figures with those for 1981 shows a  
contraction in food aid expenditure carried out under the advance 
payments arrangement of about 13*7$. The rate of utilization of  
the advance payments, which was 96$ in 1981 fell to 91$ in 1982.
Annex 24 shows the cash position as at 31*12.1982. The sum 
available for the Community (before adjustment and given in a  
breakdown by Member State) was 46 759 777*14 ECU. This amount,  
corresponding to advance payments not used by the Member States at  
31*12.1982, has been readjusted in relation with the ECU rate  
valid for advance payments of January 1983 (Annex 24, col. e).
This accounting operation has no impact on the food aid accounts  
balances held in national currencies by the Member States.
The appropriations available and committed in 1982 were the  
following (cf. Annexes 26, 27 and 29) in ECU :
- carried forward from 1981 because of  
deferred implementation of certain9*2.2. Changes in the cash position

The corresponding amount for 1981 was 718 198 505*87 ECU (the
increase for 1982 is 17*9$)·

- 63 -
9.3*2. Payments
a) Expenditure declared by the Member States
Table No 13 and Annexes 24 to 28 show the expenditure declared  
by the Member States, namely a total of 468 594 783.02 ECU.
The amounts charged to the budget in 1982 will not necessarily  
be the same as those in the final annual accounts to be shown  
subsequently in the Commission's clearance decisions. The  
differences between the advance payments approved and actual  
expenditure constitute the balances available at  
31 December 1982. They are considered as advances for 1983 and  
the Member States may therefore use them to meet expenditure  
incurred in 1983«
b) Direct payments
Apart from the advance payments made to intervention agencies  
in the Member States, the Commission made - as in the past - a  
number of direct payments to certain countries and agencies as  
contributions towards the cost of transporting and distributing  
food aid supplies. A number of contracts were also concluded  
through the Commission for purchases of food on the world  
market and the EAGGP Guarantee Section made the relevant  
payments.
The total for these direct payments in 1982 was
68 341 293.03 ECU (cf. Annex 28). The breakdown by beneficiary
is given in the table below.
The increase in direct payments over 1981 was 18.1$.

9.3*3· Charging to the budget
The amounts of expenditure declared by the Member States are  
normally charged as a global sum to the budget every month, while  
direct expenditure by the Commission's staff under the 1977  
Financial Regulation is charged on a case-by-case basis.
9.3.4· Transfers
During the year, transfers within Chapter 92 proved necessary to  
adapt the appropriations made under specific headings to the needs  
arising from the monthly charging of expenditure declared by the  
Member States. The table in Annex 26 shows all the transfers made  
under the appropriations for 1982. The negative balance of  
16 million ECU represents an amount transferred to item 9260 to  
allow of the execution of an education programme agreed under the  
Convention between the EEC and UNRWA (Palestinian refugees) from  
items 9213 (8 815 600 ECU) and 9201 (7 184 400 ECU).
Among the transfers made, it should be noted that the items for  
previous rice and sugar programmes had no appropriations, hence  
the need for transfers for the charging of the expenditure  
declared by the Member States.
Also with regard to the other headings relating to previous  
programmes, the budgetary appropriations proved inadequate, hence  
the execution of transfers from the corresponding headings of the  
1982 programmes.
These transfers proved possible because deliveries under the 1982  
programme were not as large as foreseen.
9*4· Appropriations carried over to 1985
Under the 1977 Financial Regulation, the 1982 budget appropriations  
were committed as soon as the programmes were adopted by the Council  
for that year, i.e. from 26 April 1982 onwards. Not all the  
appropriations committed led to payments, because of the relatively  
late date by which the programmes were adopted. The difference  
between the appropriations committed and total payments was  
therefore carried over automatically to 1983·

-  66  -
The rate of execution of the operations planned was as high in 1982  
as in 1981, so that the appropriations to be carried over to 1983  
are smaller than in previous years; they concern an amount of  
51 725 459 ECU, or 10 *1% of the appropriations for 1982. (The  
figure was 21.3# in 1981).
9«5· Closure of accounts
9.5.1. Verification
- For each food aid scheme, a detailed statement of expenditure is  
made out by the relevant intervention agency, following  
procedures laid down in the Financial Regulations.
As soon as they are received, the vouchers and documents are  
checked carefully on the basis of information available to the  
Commission, including the intervention prices, the tender award  
prices and the amounts relating to refunds. Further  
verification is then carried out at the headquarters of the  
paying agencies.
- Vith regard to the payments made directly by the Commission,  
these are subject to the general management rules set out in the  
1977 Financial Regulation.
9*5.2. Clearance of accounts
Verification of 1975 was completed in 1982 and the Commission  
should be in a position to adopt a clearance decision in the near  
future.
The clearance of food aid accounts is hampered by problems similar  
to those arising in connection with the Guarantee Section, because  
so much time has been lost. To overcome these difficulties, a  
decision has been adopted to handle more than one year at a time.  
1976, 1977, 1978 and 1979 will be cleared together and a  
Commission decision should normally be adopted in the first  
quarter of 1984* 1980, 1981, 1982 and 1983 will also be cleared
together in order to eliminate the entire backlog in this field.
It is expected that these years will be cleared by the end of 1984.

A = Balance at the beginning of the nonth at that aonths' rate 
B ■ Advances for the aonth 
C = Total available for the month 
D = Expenditure for the month 
E ■ Balance still available
The differences between the amounts against E and those against A of the following month are due to exchange 
differences. The balances remaining available at the end of the month represent the difference between the amount 
available at the beginning of each month and the expenditure declared for that month to the Commission, without taking 
into account sums paid after the 20th of the month in respect of the following month. This procedure explains why 
negative balances are shown at the end of the month for some Member States.

A = Balance at the beginning of the month at the month's rate 
B & Advances for the month 
C = Total available for th month 
D = Expenditure for the month 
E = Balance still available
The differences between the amounts against E and those against A of the following month are due to exchange 
differences. The balances remaining available at the end of the month represent the difference between the amount 
available at the beginning of each month and the expenditure declared for that month to the Conmlssion, without taking 
into account sums paid after the 20th of the month in respect of the following month. This procedure explains why 
negative balances are shown at the end of the month for some Member States.
