of supplementary and amending budget Ho 1/1983.

- 5 -
INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY
Following Parliament's rejection of draft supplementary and amending
budget No 1/1982 it is the Commission's duty to present to the budgetary authority
new proposals to give effect to the Council conclusions of 30 May 1980
and 26 October 1982, bearing in mind the reasons which prompted Parliament
to reject this budget.
The Commission is alive to the concern expressed by Parliament and to its  
desire to see the ad hoc solutions of recent years replaced by a  
permanent arrangement for strengthening Community policies and will  
accordingly be presenting proposals in the near future for developing  
these policies and for introducing a more diversified system of own  
resources. The Commission feels that this preliminary draft supplementary  
budget is a first step towards a Community solution to the budgetary  
problems which made the preliminary draft necessary.
Having made these proposals, the Commission expects the other Community  
institutions to take the appropriate decisions as soon as possible so that  
the budget problems will thus be resolved. It takes the view that these  
decisions will have to be applied in such a way that no transitional measures  
will need to be taken.
x *
In the meantime, 692 million ECU of the 1.092 million ECU contained in the  
1983 budget for supplementary measures to compensate the United Kingdom
will be utilized in accordance with Regulation (EEC) ......in the form
of
 financial aid towards certain types of investment by the British  
public authorities and for certain projects which will serve the  
interests of the United Kingdom's socio-economic development and  
Community integration.
The remaining 400 million ECU will be used for special measures of  
Community interest under the energy strategy introduced in  
Regulation (EEC) ....

-  6 -
In accordance with the Council's conclusions of 26 October 1982, smother  
210 million ECU will he alloo&ted for special measures in Germany provided  
for in the same Regulation.
Although non-differentiated appropriations are not ideally suited for  
the implementation of energy measures, the Commission is proposing that  
these new appropriations requested for the speoial measures in the United  
Kingdom and Germany should not he differentiated in view of the  
undertakings inherent in the Council's conclusions of 26 October 1982 and  
the very nature of the planned operations.
The Commission is also proposing the allocation of 35 million ECU for  
various energy measures (coal, new sources of energy, energy—saving  
programme and promotion of energy investment).
Finally, the Commission is also proposing that a new entry — Article 617 - 
he made in the statement of revenue to accommodate repayments of any  
excess provisional payments made to a Member State under the supplementary  
measures in favour of the United Kingdom or the special measures of  
Community interest under the energy strategy once the exact amounts due  
have been determined. It should he noted that the conclusions of the 
Foreign Ministers of 26 October stated that the adjustments to he made  
fer 198O and 1981 on the basis of actual figures would he taken into  
account when the subsequent solution was negotiated.
The Commission is also proposing an amendment to the heading of Item 6150  
so that it can accommodate any repayment of aid not used under the 
supplement ary measures in favour of the United Kingdom and the special  
measures of Community interest under the energy strategy. A token entry  
will he made in both these oases.

- 7 -
The conversion raies to be used, for charging "to the budget  
1.092 million ECU in respect of operations in favour of the United  
Kingdom and 210 million ECU in respect of operations in favour of  
Germany (provided for in Articles 530 and 707) are those of  
December 1982.
The Commission’s proposals in this preliminary draft amending budget  
will increase the volume of expenditure in the 1983 budget by  
1.337*370 million ECU. The Commission is proposing that this  
expenditure be financed by the budget surplus from 1981 (661 million ECU)  
and by an advance (676 million ECU) on the estimated surplus from 1982.
The Commission feels obliged to propose this approach so that the budgetary  
authority is able, by adopting supplementary and amending budget No 1/83,  
to produce the most objective and accurate instrument of authorization  
and estimate possible on the basis of the financial data known at this  
stage.
*
*  *
In conclusion, the Commission is proposing that Article 203(9) of the  
EEC Treaty be applied: non-compulsory expenditure increases by
645 million ECU in appropriations for commitments and appropriations for  
payments. The total of these appropriations in the 1983 budget should  
therefore be 7.219.671.428 ECU and 5.882.725*428 ECU respectively.

1 2
A. REVENUE
1. Entry of the balances from 1981 and 1982
The situation should be assessed from the financial and budgetary angle  
and from the point of view of the regulations.
1. Financial and budgetary angle
In order to understand the basic situation arising at financial and  
budgetary level at the end of 1982 and beginning of 1983 when the  
budgetary authority failed to adopt supplementary and amending budget  
No 1/1982, it should be borne in mind that the preliminary draft submitted  
by the Commission on 5 November 1982 would have enabled the following  
three operations to take places
(a) the financial consequences of the supplementary measures in favour  
of the United Kingdom and the special energy programme for Germany  
(mainly covered by savings in the EAGGF Guarantee Section) could have  
been covered in the statement of expenditure}
(b) the estimates of traditional own resources in the statement of  
revenue could have been updated to reflect the actual outturn as  
accurately as possible}
(c) an advance on the budget balance from the previous year and the  
VAT balance could have been entered in the statement of revenue in  
accordance with Article 16(2) of Regulation No 2891/77 and. Article 27  
of the Financial Regulation (the VAT balances from 1979 and. 1980 were 
also taken into account).
Although new expenditure totalling 1.308 million ECU was proposed in  
this preliminary draft supplementary and amending budget, this proposal  
would have resulted in additional final expenditure of 163 million ECU  
as a result of savings in the EAGGF Guarantee Section and the updating  
of the estimates of revenue to take into account the balance for I 98I 
and the VAT adjustments for previous financial years. No increase in  
the VAT rate would then have been required in 1982.

1 3
The fact that the budgetary authority was finally unable to adopt this  
supplementary budget had the following four consequences at financial  
and budgetary level:
- the new expenditure provided for in the supplementary budget could  
not be authorized in 1982 and must therefore be authorized in the 1983  
budget;
- although not reflected at budgetary level by an adjustment of the  
estimates, the updating of the estimated revenue for 1982,  including  
the VAT balance from I 98I and the adjustments to the VAT balances from  
1979 and 1980,  was actually included in the accounts for 1982 in 
accordance with the appropriate rules;
- the balance of 661,494 million ECU from 198I - which could not be  
taken into account when the 1982 budget was being implemented because  
budgetary authorization had not been given - remains available in full  
at the end of the 1982 financial year and is therefore carried over to  
1983;
- an advance on the estimated balance from 1982,  arising from  
implementation of the budget for that financial year, is now added to  
the balance from I 98I in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation
No 2891/77. The table on the next page records the main figures behind  
the estimate of 675»^76 million ECU.
2. The regulations aspect
The balance from a financial year is not established definitively for  
accounting purposes until the accounts are finally closed in accordance  
with Article 15 of Regulation No 2891/77; because of the supplementary  
period for the EAGGF Guarantee Section which ends on 31 March of  
year "n+ 1", the final calculation is first contained in the revenue and  
expenditure account which the Commission draws up by 1 June.

(differentiated appropriations remaining avaiLabLe under specific  
budget headings are carried over automaticaLLy).
(2) When the revenue and expenditure account and financiaL baLance for 1982  
are drawn up, the provisionaL balance wiLL have to be adjusted by a  
certain amount to take into account exchange differences for aLL the  
institutions (changes in assets in reLation to the ECU); no reLiabLe  
assessment can be made at this stage.

1 5
In these circumstances, Article 27 of the Financial Regulation states  
that the balance shall be entered "in the budget of the subsequent  
financial year upon adoption of the amending budget referred to in  
Article 16(2) of Regulation No 2891/77" (the amending budget which takes  
into account the adjustments to the VAT own resources of the previous  
year).
If this Article were to be applied literally, the surplus from 1982 would  
not be entered in the budget until autumn 1983; however, in view  
of the present circumstances, it goes without saying that the estimated  
balance from 1982 should be entered in the budget now as an advance  
for two reasons:
- the size of the surplus already known for 1982, made up mainly of  
lapsed EAGGF Guarantee appropriations;
- the possibility of covering supplementary expenditure for 1983  
without having to increase the VAT rate (which would be superfluous  
at this stage).
The Commission is therefore making a cautious estimate, as is evident  
from the figures contained in the table above. It feels obliged to  
propose this approach so that the budgetary authority is able, by  
adopting supplementary and amending budget No 1/1983, to produce the  
most objective and accurate instrument of authorization and estimate  
possible on the basis of the financial data known at this stage.

2. Comments concerning the revenue shortfall in 1982
The provisional figure for revenue in 1982 is 588,091 million ECU lower  
than the budget estimates and is unlikely to change significantly, since  
the final figure for own resources is already known. Only the figure  
for other revenue, currently estimated at 233,730 million ECU, is not  
yet final.
The breakdown of the shortfall is as follows:
million ECU
Own resources - estimates in preliminary  
draft supplementary and  
amending budget No 2/82
- agricultural levies 370,960
- sugar and isoglucose  
levies 51,255
subtotal: - 422,215
- additional shortfall in  
outturn - 158,757
- 580,972
VAT balance from 1981 and adjustments to  
the balances from 1979 and 1980 (estimates  
in preliminary draft supplementary and  
amending budget No 2/82):
- 1981 VAT balance - 141,934
- adjustments to 1979  
VAT balance +4,611
- adjustments of 1980  
VAT balance + 60,986
subtotal: - 76,337
Surplus of other revenue
Total+ 69,218
- 588,091

1 7
If the supplementary and amending budget had been adopted the shortfall  
would have been no more than some 89,539 million ECU, since the VAT  
balance and the major portion of the shortfall in own resources would  
have been included.
The sizeable additional shortfall in own resources is due to the fall in  
sugar storage levies (— 21,480 million ECU), probably as a result of  
a drop in disposals at the end of the year, and customs duties <- 123,683  
million ECU). As regards the latter, preliminary draft supplementary  
and amending budget No 2/82 made no provision for adjusting the  
estimates. The downward trend observed in the third quarter became  
more pronounced over the last three months of the year, with the  
recession probably causing imports of goods subject to heavy duties to  
shrink. However, full figures on imports giving rise to customs duties  
in the third quarter will not be available for some time.
The surplus in other revenue is made up of both revenue where outturn was  
higher than the estimates, which was the case in particular with revenue  
from bank interest, the commercial exploitation of projects in the  
hydrocarbons sector and revenue from services provided by the  
Joint Research Centre to third parties, and of incidental revenue for  
which only a token entry can be made under the relevant headings. This  
includes, in particular, repayments of unused Community aid, interest  
on late payments, fines and penalties and revenue available for re-use  
but not used.
It should also be noted that whereas an estimate would normally have been  
entered against the heading for revenue from the levy on staff  
remunerations, only a token entry was made in the 1982 budget because  
detailed arrangements for the application of the levy had not yet been  
adopted when the budget was drawn up.

1 8
B. EXPENDITURE
1. Supplementary measures in favour of the United Kingdom
Regulation (EEC) No 2744/80 of 27 October 1980 establishing supplementary  
measures in favour of the United. Kingdom (0J L 284 of 29 October 1980), 
which was designed to give effect to the Counoil conclusions of 30 May 1980,  
provided for net compensation to be paid to the United Kingdom in order to  
limit its contributions to the 1980 and 1981 budgets.
Regulation (EEC) No /83 (aimending the above regulation and designed
to give effect to the Council conclusions of 26 October 1982) provides  
that, out of the total of 1,092 million ECU required to produce net  
compensation to the United Kingdom of 850 million ECU, 692 million ECU  
shall be devoted to financing new supplementary measures. This amount  
is entered in Chapter 53·
This payment, which covers the last of the three years provided for in  
the conclusions of 30 May 1980, is charged to the existing Article 530  
and classified as compulsory expenditure.
There is a provision that 10$ of the Community’s contribution may only be  
paid after the Commission has duly satisfied itself about all aspects of  
the projects being carried out.
2. Energy policy
The Commission has grouped under Article 707 (Special measures of Community  
interest under the energy strategy) the budgetary proposals which it had  
presented earlier and which were the result of the political undertaikings  
given by the Council on 26 October. It also took account of Parliament’s  
comments made when rejecting draft supplementary and amending budget No 1/82.
Hence:
- Expenditure under this airtiole is part of an overall energy strategy  
which includes special measures of Community interest. In addition to  
the 210 million ECU originally earmarked exclusively for Germany, it  
includes 400 million ECU of the total of 1, 092 million ECU to be paid  
under the supplementary measures to the United Kingdom. These special  
measures of Community interest will be the subjeot of a Council  
regulation.
The total appropriations under this article amount to 610 million ECU.

1 9
- The Commission proposes that, since a new Community policy is concerned,  
expenditure under Article 707 should he classified as non—compulsory *
All expenditure in the energy sector, of which this forms part, is  
already so classified.
- In the proposal for a regulation, the methods of financing and inspection  
have been brought into line with the general rules and with the suggestions  
previously made by Parliament. Hence 10$ of the Community contribution  
may be paid only after the Commission has duly satisfied itself about
all aspects of the projects being carried out.
The Commission also proposes that supplementary appropriations be entered  
under the following headings:
7020 - Hew technologies for burning solid fuels and using the residues
thereof
7021 - Projects for the liquefaction and gasification of solid fuels
7031 - Projects concerning geothermal energy
7032 - Projects concerning solar energy and biomass
704 - Community energy-saving programme  
and
705 - Promotion of energy investments.
The total amount involved is 35 million ECU in commitment and payment  
appropriations.
These appropriations are required because of the development of operations  
in these sectors and are broken down as follows:
15 million ECU for Item 7020»
3 million ECU for Item 7021;
4 million ECU for Item 7031»
4 million ECU for Item 7032;
4 million ECU for Article 704?
5 million ECU for Article 705·

2 0
3. Correction of an error concerning financial compensation to Member  
States which are not effectively and fully participating in the  
European Monetary System
The compensation to the United Kingdom entered -under Article 820 has  
been increased by 366.000 ECU and that for Greece, entered under Article 821  
by 4.000 ECU. In both cases this is a result of the revision of the Member  
States' VAT bases.
Because of the small inorease in the United Kingdom's share in the Community  
base, the amounts payable to the United Kingdom and to Greece to compensate  
for their contribution towards financing interest subsidies granted under  
the European Monetary System need also be increased.
C. AMEMDMEMTS TO TEE NOMENCLATURE OF THE STATEMENT OP REVENUE
The Commission has decided to adopt the ideas contained in two of Parliament  
amendments (Mbs 3 and 4) to the statement of revenue in draft supplementary  
and amending budget Mo ^ / 82. It has therefore introduced a new heading,  
Article 617, to accommodate repayments of any eioess provisional payments  
to a Member State under the supplementary measures in favour of the  
United Kingdom or the special measures of Community interest under the  
energy strategy once the exact amounts due have been determined. It should  
be noted that on 26 October 1982 the Foreign Ministers agreed that  
corrections in respect of 1980 and 1981 to be made on the basis of actual  
figures would be taken into account when the subsequent solution was  
negotiated.
The Commission is also proposing an amendment to the heading of Item 6150  
so that it can accommodate any repayment of aid not used under the  
supplementary measures in favour of the United Kingdom and the special  
measures of Community interest under the energy strategy. A token entry  
would be made in both cases.
