Inthiscontext,theCommissioniswellawareofthecntisismfrequently made
thatfoodaidmayharmacountry'sinterests (forexample,bydiscouraging
localproductionandbyincreasingthepeople'sdependence onimported
products).Thistypeofcriticism maybejustifiedincertaincases.For
thisreasontheCommission,consciousofthedifficulties sometimescaused
bypooruseoffoodaid,urgesthatmeasuresbeadoptedtoallowbetter
planningofaid(multiannual programming),improvedintegration offoodaid
inoveralldevelopmentpolicyinfoodstrategiesofthebeneficiaries and
theadaptationoffoodaidtotherealneedsofthepeopleconcerned

theCouncilbutnotyetaccepted^
Inpresentingthefoodaidprogrammesfor1981,theCommission wouldstress
thatsomeoftherecommendations madeinthe"hungerintheworld"debate
havebeenatleastpartlyimplemented andthatthe1981programmeswill
provideanopportunity forimplementing newtypesofoperationmadepossible
bythetwoResolutions oftheCouncilon18November1980ontheuseof
Communityfoodaidandhungerintheworld.(However,theCommission would
alsopointouttotheCouncilthatthereareproposalsstillwaitingtobe
adoptedwithregardtothediversification andmanagementoffoodaid.)
I.Actionalreadytaken
A.Consciousofthedevelopingcountries'veryextensivecerealimport
requirements,theCommunityincreaseditsparticipation underthe
renewedFoodAidConvention for1980/81by29%,i.e.from
1287000tto1650000t.Consequently,theamountinvolvedunderthe
cerealsfoodaidprogrammefor1981willbe927663t(insteadof
720500t,whichhasbeenthefiguresince1976/77).Thisincrease

TheCommission byincluding EUA1000000underthisHeadinthe

re-instating theseappropriations inthedraftBudget,haveshownthe
greatimportance whichtheyattachtothosemeasures.
II.Actionplanned
TheCouncilResolution ontheuseofFoodAidadoptedon18November1980

Underthefoodaidprogrammesfor1981,theCommissionwillpresent
proposalsforsupportingdevelopmentprojectsorprogrammes bymeans

Reference hasbeenmadetotheHungerintheWorldDebateanditsimportance
forthedevelopment offoodaidpolicyandprogrammes .Clearly^giving
assistance toMembersofParliament inpreparing reports andgathering
information wasanimportant taskin1980,Members havealsotabledseveral
questions relating totheCommissions actionsinthefieldoffoodaid,
aswellasundertaking relatedenquiries (e.g.useofdairyproducts in
developing countries ).
CourtofAuditors
TheCourtofAuditors haveundertaken aspecialenquiryintofoodaid.The
Commission services havecooperated fullywiththeCourtandhaveaccompagnied

Economic andSocialCommittee
TheEconomic andSocialCommittee hassetupaworkinggrouptoexaminefood

Theincreased workloadassociated withassisting thesedifferent investigations
hasnotprevented theCommission fromcontinuing tomakemodestprogress in
someoftheinitiatives ittooklastyear.
Inparticular triangular operations continued withpurchases forpeoplein
Kampuchea ,Nicaragua ,Pakistan (Afghanrefugees),EastAfricaand
Algeria.
Emergency Actions
FromJanuaryuntilendNovember 1980theCommission hadcommitted almost
100,000tcereals,14,000tofskimmedmilkpowderand3,120tofbutteroil
inemergency actionsresulting fromnaturaldisasters orcivilandmilitary

1981FOODAIDPROGRAMME INCEREALS
Cerealsquantities available
1.Thetotalquantity ofcerealsfoodaidproposed forallocation for1981
is927663t,inlinewiththedraftbudgetfortheyear.Thisrepresents
approximately 56%oftheincreased foodaidcommitment of1650000t
undertaken bytheCommunity anditsmemberstatesunderthenew1980
FoodAidConvention .Theremaining 722337tareallocated bythemember
statesbywayofnational actions.
2.Thenewquantityof927663tavailable forCommunity actionsrepresents
ausefulincrease fromtheprevioustotalof720500t,whichhadremained
frozenduringthefouryearssince1977.However,theCommission considers
thatthisamountisstillinadequate inviewoftheannually increasing
cerealsimportsofthedeveloping countries asawhole,andofrecent
highlysatisfactory grainharvests enjoyed bytheprincipal exporting
developed countries ,including theEEC.Suchamodestincrease hardly
constitutes anappropriate response torecentpublicandparliamentary
(1)concernatthecrisisofhungerintheworld.
Requests received
3.Asinallprevious yearsthequantities requested greatly exceedthose
available .Thetotalrequests received fromsomefiftycountries areover
twomilliontonnes,whilstthecerealsimportrequirements ofthese
countries areestimated for1980/81attwenty-two million tonnes.In
addition,substantial requests havebeenreceived fromvarious UN
andotheragencies .
C1)ItshouldbenotedthattheEuropean Parliament,inits
examination ofthe1981budget,proposed a
Community cereals programme of1155663t.

Foodoutlookfor1981
4.Thefoodoutlookinthedevelopingcountrieshasingeneraldeteriorated
furtherduringthepastyear.WorldcerealsproductionaccordingtoFAO

whereanincreaseof6milliontonnestoarecord94milliontonnesis

consumption.Asregardsexportprices,wheatreacheditshighestlevel
everduringOctober1980,coarsegrainsregistered analmostsimilar
increase,andriceshowsnosignofdeclinefromtherecordprice

5.Withinthesetoflow-incomedevelopingcountriesonwhichtheCommunity's
foodaidisconcentrated,thepatternisdiverse.Thetrendnotedbythe
Commission ayearagohascontinued :someimprovement inAsia(except
Indochina),butasharpdeterioration inAfrica.Inseveralcountries
ofEasternandSouthernAfricatherehavebeenfamineornear-famine
conditions,arisingfromthesecondyearofdroughtandexacerbated,particu­
larlyintheHornofAfrica,bythemassivemovementsofdisplacedpersons.
Italsoappearsthatthehoped-forimprovement intheSahelregionwill
notmaterialisethisyear.

6.TheprincipalcriteriausedbytheCommissioninpreparingitsproposals
for1981havebeenthesamethreeasinpreviousyears:basicfoodneeds,
economicdevelopment,externalfinances.Thesecriteriawereapprovedby
theCouncilinMarch1977.Theyarehoweverinterpreted withacertain
flexibility.TheCommissionconsidersthatthechoiceofrecipients
andtheamountofaidtobegrantedshouldalsobebaseduponother

-18-
elements ofappreciation :forexample,thelevelofaidexpected from
otherdonorsandofcontracted commercial imports,andtheplanned and
pastuseoffoodaidbythecountry concerned .Attention hasbeenpaid
inparticular towhether acountryplanstousetheCommunity 'saidas
partofadefined foodstrategy.
7.Foodneedshavebeenassessed onthebasisofcerealsimportrequirements ,
asestimated byFAOwhenavailable,andsupplemented byinformation from
requesting countries themselves orbyCommission delegations onthespot.
Ricerequirements havebeenadjusted upwardsinviewoftherice/cereals
ratioapplied bytheEECforfoodaiddeliveries .Asinprevious years,the
Commission hasusedgrossrequirements beforededuction ofanticipated
commercial ornon-commercial imports,inordertoensureequityof
treatment forallpotential recipients .
8.Thesecondmajorcriterion -levelofeconomic development -hasbeen
applied byreference tothelatestestimates ofGNP/capita,usingwhere
available the1979figuresproduced byIBRDinJuly1980.Itshould
benotedthatwhenoriginally proposed bytheCommission thecriterion
wasUS2300(1970),whichisroughlyequivalent to2680today.This
latterfigurerepresents theFY1981guideline forIDAeligibility ,and
isproposed bytheCommission asthebasiccriterion forthepresent
programme .
9.Theexternal finances oftheapplicant countries havebeentakeninto
account byexamining thelatestavailable IMFfiguresforbalance
ofpayments asanabsolute figure,andthebalanceofpayments ratio
(exportsofgoodsandservices asapercentage ofbalanceofpayments
oncurrent account).Consideration hasalsobeengiven,wheredataare
available ,tothelevelofexternal debtandtothedebtservice
ratio(debtservice payments asapercentage ofexportsofgoodsand
services).Theresultsoftheseanalyses aregiveninAppendixI.Whilstthe

30730 tonnes
870 tonnes
Remarks ^This reserve represents anabsolute minimum ,asquantities
will have tobeallotted tocountries for which atoken
entry hasbeen made forthetime being .
However ,thefollowing quantities are still available inthe reserves
under earlier programmes :
This quantity -1634 t-istheminimum needed tocover anyemergency
operations approved between now andtheend of1981 .
Itshould also bepointed out that theCommission hasrequested at
various times anincrease inthe quantities ofbutteroil tobesupplied
asfood aid .Ifitsrequest isnotgranted another solution will have
befound inorder tomeet thedeveloping countries' substantial oils
andfats requirements ;this could take the form ofsupplying vegetable
oils andfats ,which arealso much cheaper (450 EUA/tforcolza oil
ascompared with 4000 EUA/tforbutteroil ).
Asinprevious years ,anindicative programme hasbeen drawn upfor
dairy product allocations totheNGOs ,LICR0SS andthe ICRC .This
programme could beamended atthe request oftheorganization concerned ,
