RÅDETS BESLUT 
OM FASTSTÄLLANDE AV STORLEKEN PÅ 
GEMENSKAPENS FINANSIELLA BIDRAG FÖR 1995 TILL DE SVENSKA 
MYNDIGHETERNAS UTGIFTER FÖR FRISLÄPPANDE AV LAXYNGEL 
(framlagt av kommissionen) 

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
Article 125 of the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden provides that for 
three years from the date of its accession Sweden will benefit from a Community 
financial contribution to the financing Of the release of smolt in the Baltic 
This Community contribution, which must be the subject of a decision by the Council, 
acting by a qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission, must be assessed 
in the light of the balances existing immediately before accession. 
The contribution corresponds to that previously paid by the Community to Sweden 
under the bilateral agreement on certain measures for the purpose of promoting the 
reproduction of salmon in the Baltic Sea. 
Article 3 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2210/80 of 27 June 1980 on the agreement 
between the European Economic Community and the Government of Sweden on 
certain measures for the purpose of promoting the reproduction of salmon in the 
Baltic2 provides that the amount of the contribution must be determined so as to cover 
the actual costs to the Swedish authorities of breeding, tagging and releasing the 
quantity of smolt necessary to produce a quantity of salmon equal to the non-
reciprocal quota allocated to the Community in the Swedish fishery zone for the year 
during which the contribution is to be granted. 
Since the total catch from stock permitted in 1995 has been reduced, the amount of 
the financial contribution has been calculated by applying the reduction coefficient 
proportionally to the data existing immediately before accession.

Förslag till rådets beslut om fastställande av storleken på gemenskapens 
finansiella bidrag för 1995 till de svenska myndigheternas utgifter för 
frisläppande av laxyngel 
EUROPEISKA UNIONENS RÅD HAR ANTAGIT DETTA BELUT 
med beaktande av Fördraget om upprättandet av Europeiska gemenskapen, 
med beaktande av Anslutningsakten för Österrike, Finland och Sverige, särskilt artikel 
125 i denna, och 
med beaktande av följande: 
I artikel 125 i Anslutningsakten föreskrivs att rådet med kvalificerad majoritet på förslag 
av kommissionen årligen fastställer storleken på gemenskapens finansiella bidrag till d& 
behöriga svenska myndigheterna för frisläppande av laxyngel. 
Detta finansiella bidrag skall värderas mot bakgrund av den balans som fanns direkt före 
Sveriges anslutning. 
I artikel 3 i rådets förordning (EEG) nr 2210/80 av den 27 juni 1980 om ingående av ett 
avtal mellan Europeiska ekonomiska gemenskapen och Sveriges regering avseende vissa 
åtgärder avsedda att främja laxbeståndet i Östersjön1 föreskrivs att gemenskapens bidrag 
är lika stort som de faktiska kostnaderna som de svenska myndigheterna har för 
uppfödning, märkning och frisläppande i vatten av den nödvändiga kvantitet yngel för 
produktion av den kvantitet lax som motsvarar den icke-ömsesidiga kvot som tilldelats 
gemenskapen i den svenska fiskezonen under det år dä det finansiella stödel skall 
beviljas. 
Kommissionen har mottagit Sveriges ansökan om finansiellt bidrag från gemenskapen för 
1995, som motsvarar ansökan för 1994. 
EGTnr L 226, 29.4.1980, s. 7.

Den internationella Östersjökommissionen för fiske har föreslagit en TAC för 
laxbestånden i Östersjön och den del som skall tilldelas gemenskapen. 
Eftersom den TAC som fastställdes för 1995 har minskats, har den svenska ansökan 
undersökts igen. 
Storleken på gemenskapens finansiella bidrag har beräknats genom att proportionellt 
tillämpa den minskningen på den icke-ömsesidiga kvot som Sverige skulle ha tilldelat 
gemenskapen om det bilaterala avtalet hade tillämpats. 
HÄRIGENOM FÖRESKRIVS FÖLJANDE. 
Artikel 1 
Gemenskapens finansiella bidrag för 1995 för täckning av utgifterna för att främja 
reproduktionen av lax i Östersjön begränsas till 666 092 ecu. 
Artikel 2 
Detta beslut är riktat till Sveriges regering.

Financial statement 
1. Title of operation 
Financial contribution to measures to promote the reproduction of salmon in the 
Baltic. 
2. Budget heading involved 
B7 - 800 
3. Legal basis 
Article 125 of the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden. 
4. Description of operation 
4.1. General objective 
This Commission proposal fixes the amount of the 1995 Community financial 
contribution to the release of smolt by the competent Swedish authorities as 
provided for in Article 125 of the Act of Accession. 
4.2. Period covered and arrangements for renewal or extension 
The measure covers 1995. A new proposal will be made in 1996. 
5. Classification of expenditure/revenue 
5.1. compulsory expenditure 
5.2. differentiated appropriations 
5.3. no revenue 
6. Type of expenditure or revenue 
100% subsidy 
7. Financial impact 
7-1. Method of calculating cost of operation 
The amount of the Community financial contribution to the release of smolt 
carried out by the Swedish authorities has been calculated on the basis of the 
balances existing immediately before accession. Council Regulation (EEC) 
No 2210/80 of 27 June 1980 on the agreement between the European Economic 
Community and the Government of Sweden on certain measures for the purpose 
V 
of promoting the reproduction of salmon inthe Baltic!, provides;'i^^the^^0^Wr2. 
of the contribution must be determined so as to cover the actual costs to the ,. -
Swedish authorities of breeding, tagging and releasing a quantity of .smolt ; : ;, 
necessary to produce a quantity of salmon equal to the. non-reciprocal quota.,'„.. 
allocated to the Community in the Swedish fishery zone for the year during which 
the contribution is to be granted. 
Sweden allocated the Community a salmon quota of 220 tonnes for 1994. 
In 1995 the overall ACR for Baltic salmon was reduced by 16.666% and the 
quotas of each of the partners were reduced by the same proportion. 
To comply with existing balances it must be assumed that Sweden will allocate 
the same quantities reduced by the proportion by which the Swedish quota is 
reduced for 1995, i.e.: 
220 T - 220 x 16.666 - 183.33 T 
100 
The Swedes have indicated to the Commission that the actual cost of 1 smolt is 
17 Swedish krona and that 1 tonne of salmon is the equivalent of 2 000 smolt. 
The amount of the financial contribution for 1995 is thus: 
183.33 x-2 000x 17 SEK = 
6 233 220 SEK : 9.357900 =
