TJUGOFJÄRDE EKONOMISKA REDOGÖRELSE 
A. UTVECKLINGEN AV GEMENSKAPENS MARKNADS Fl NANS IE RING 
1. De slutgiltiga krediter som beviljades av EUGFJ:s garantisektion för budgetåret 
1994, d.v.s. krediterna enligt den ursprungliga budgeten, den justerade 
tilläggsbudgeten och överföringarna, uppgick till 34 787 miljoner ecu 
(kassareserven om en miljard ecu ej inräknad). 
Under samma budgetår fastställdes utgiftsramen för jordbruket, som bestämmer 
maximibeloppet för EUGFJ:s garantisektions utgifter på jordbruksområdet, till 36 465 
miljoner ecu, en minskning jämfört med budgetåret 1993 (36 657 miljoner ecu). 
De totala utgifterna uppgick till 32 970 miljoner ecu, till vilket skall läggas en utgift 
på 441,8 miljoner ecu för krediter som överförts från budgetåret 1993. 
Utgifterna har minskat påtagligt eftersom de 1993 uppgick till 34 590 miljoner ecu. 
Detta bör ses som en av de första positiva effekterna av reformen av 
gemenskapens jordbrukspolitik som har gjort sig märkbara under en allmänt 
gynnsam konjunktur (diagram 1 A).. 
2. Trots att utgifterna sjönk mellan 1993 och 1994 steg EUGFJ:s garantisektions andel 
inom Europeiska unionens allmänna budget från 53,8 % till 55 %. Detta beror på en 
ännu större minskning av utgifterna i den allmänna budgeten (uttryckt i 
betalningskrediter, diagram 1 B).

TOTALA UTGIFTER UTGIFTER EUGFJ:s GARANTISEKTION 
3. En närmare granskning av fördelningen av utgifterna efter utgiftsslag visar 
följande utveckling: 
- Utgifterna för bidrag visar en betydande minskning, från 10 159 miljoner ecu 
1993 till 8 161 miljoner ecu 1994. De representerar alltså inte mer än 25 % av 
EUGFJ:s garantisektions totala utgifter. 
- Utgifterna för intervention nådde 24 048 miljoner ecu 1994. De omfattar i 
huvudsak lagringsutgifter och kompenserande prisstöd (stöd till produktion, 
bearbetning och saluföring). Sedan marknaden sanerats har lagringsutgifterna 
minskat mycket kraftigt, från 5 386 miljoner ecu 1993 till 1 070 miljoner ecu 
1994. Däremot ökar de kompenserande prisstöden (21 339 miljoner ecu 1994 
mot 15 767 miljoner ecu 1993), på grund av den ökande vikten av de 
produktionsstöd (arealstöd, uttag av åkermark, am- och dikobidrag samt bidrag 
för handjur av nötkreatur) som inrättats genom reformen av gemenskapens 
jordbrukspolitik. 
4. Utgifternas fördelning mellan sektorer är följande: 
38 % av utgifterna går till jordbruksgrödor, som omfattar fyra tidigare utgiftstitlar 
(spannmål, oljeväxter, proteinväxter och uttag av åkermark). Därefter kommer 
mjölkprodukter med 13 %, vilket innebär en minskning jämfört med 1993. 
Produktionen av nötkött erhåller 11 % av medlen. Fördelningen till andra sektorer 
framgår av diagram 2 A. 
5. Fördelning mellan medlemsstater (diagram 2 B): 
Frankrike är, med 7 991 miljoner ecu eller 24 % av utgifterna, den huvudsakliga 
mottagaren av medel från EUGFJ:s garantisektion. Långt efter kommer Tyskland 
(5 174 miljoner ecu) och Spanien (4 284 miljoner ecu). Noteras bör den betydande 
minskningen av medelstilldelningen till Italien (från 4 754 miljoner ecu 1993 till 3 446 
miljoner ecu), som har fått nära 800 miljoner ecu mindre i bidrag. 
B. KASSA- OCH KREDITFÖRVALTNING 
1. Budgeten för budgetåret 1994 antogs i december 1993 och omfattade krediter på 
36 465,0 miljoner ecu för EUGFJ:s garantisektion. En justerad tilläggsbudget antogs 
under budgetåret som minskade dessa krediter med 1 678,0 miljoner ecu. 
Förutom krediterna från 1994 års budget har EUGFJ disponerat icke automatiskt 
överförda krediter från föregående budgetår till ett belopp av 510 0 miljoner ecu och 
krediter överförda enligt plan till ett belopp av 353,8 miljoner ecu.

3. Under budgetåret 1994 har kommissionen tagit tretton beslut om förskott, varav 
tolv reguljära och ett tilläggsbeslut för att anpassa beviljade förskott till budgetårets 
totala utgifter. Ett beslut har måst fattas om särskild revision i syfte att minska 
förskotten till två medlemsstater, eftersom de överföringar mellan utgiftstitlar som 
är nödvändiga för att täcka en viss utgiftsvolym, av tekniska och administrativa 
skäl inte har kunnat meddelas till budgetmyndigheten i rätt tid. I detta beslut 
fastställs att nämnda medel skall tas i anspråk under budgetåret 1995. 
4. På grundval av artikel 13 i rådets beslut 94/729/EG om budgetdisciplin som 
bemyndigar kommissionen att minska eller tills vidare innehålla utbetalningar av 
månatliga förskott till medlemsstaterna, om de redogörelser för utgifterna eller de 
upplysningar som meddelas av en medlemsstat inte gör det möjligt för 
kommissionen att fastställa att utnyttjandet av medlen överensstämmer med 
tillämpliga gemenskapsregler, har kommissionen beslutat minska förskotten under 
budgetåret 1994 med ett belopp av 19,8 miljoner ecu för utgifter betalda efter 
överskridande av den föreskrivna fristen och för vilka bevisningen inte har varit 
tillfredsställande. 
FÖREBYGGANDE OCH FÖRHINDRANDE AV BEDRÄGERI 
Kommissionen har under 1994 fortsatt och intensifierat sin verksamhet med 
bekämpning av bedrägeri och oegentligheter som skadar EUGFJ. 
Denna verksamhet har i huvudsak varit inriktad på följande tre områden: 
Tillämpning av legislativa åtgärder som berör kontroll och förbättring av 
regelsystem och metodologi. 
Genomförande av undersökningar och kontroller med en förstärkning av 
åtgärder "i fält". 
Inrättande och genomförande av särskilda kontrollåtgärder. 
Inom Integrerade administrations- och kontrollsystemet har under 1994 flera 
uppdrag genomförts i alla medlemsstater i syfte att objektivt undersöka 
organisationen och genomförandet av systemet och att göra administrativa 
kontroller på platsen. Inrättandet av ett system för identifikation av jordbruksskiften 
och tillämpningen av bestämmelserna i direktiv 92/102/EEG om identifikation och 
registrering av djur har undersökts särskilt ingående. 
Likaså har fjärranalys systematiskt utnyttjats av medlemsstaterna. Vissa länder har 
genomfört en del av kontrollerna genom flygfotografering kombinerat med 
kontroller på platsen. Dessutom har man med fjärranalys kunnat kontrollera de 
deklarationer som lämnats av jordbrukarna inom ramen för det integrerade 
systemet. 
Kommissionen har fortsatt sitt arbete med att förbättra regelsystemet för att 
förstärka och effektivisera kontrollen. När det gäller kontroll vid export av 
jordbruksprodukter har förordning (EG) nr 63/94 om ändring av förordning (EEG) 
nr 386/90 antagits av rådet, och kommissionen har antagit förordning (EG) nr 
3122/94 om fastställande av kriterier för riskanalys för exportbidrag. 
Inom regelsystemet för förstärkning av kontrollen (förordning EEG nr 307/91) har 
kommissionen antagit förordning (EG) nr 1196/94 som bl.a. medger en bättre 
förvaltning av gemenskapens anslag för detta ändamål. 
Dessutom har arbetet med antagandet av förordningen angående riskabla aktörer 
(svarta listan) gjort stora framsteg. En principöverenskommelse har nåtts på 
rådsnivå med reservation för parlamentets yttrande, och tillämpningsföreskrifter 
som skall antas av kommissionen har diskuterats med medlemsstaterna. 
Inom området exportbidrag har väsentliga ändringar gjorts när det gäller de 
sanktioner som skall tillämpas (artikel 11 i förordning (EEG) nr 3665/87). 
Parallellt härmed har kommissionen fortsatt och intensifierat sin närvaro i fält med 
en koncentration av insatserna inom risksektorerna. Flera undersökningar har 
igångsatts inom olika sektorer såsom spannmål, bomull, tobak, olivolja, frukt och 
grönsaker, och export av mjölkprodukter, nötkött och vinodlingsprodukter. 
I enlighet med förordning (EEG) nr 595/91 har medlemsstaterna rapporterat 1 610 
fall av oegentligheter omfattande ett sammanlagt belopp av 417,5 miljoner ecu. 
Som jämförelse registrerades 1993 totalt 1 298 fall till ett belopp av 248,3 miljoner 
ecu, en ökning av antalet fall med 24 % och av berörda belopp med 70 %. De 
viktigaste områdena var beträffande antalet fall och berörda belopp spannmål, 
nötkött och fetter. Genom beslut i samband med revision av räkenskaperna har 
betydande belopp återvunnits. 
Ar 1994 har också en förbättring av kontrollen ägt rum genom att särskilda 
åtgärder vidtagits. Bl.a. har kontrollmyndigheterna för olivolja företagit ett mycket 
stort antal kontroller hos producenterna och deras sammanslutningar, 
oljefabrikerna och förpackningsenheterna. Dessa kontroller på platsen har lett till 
att ett stort antal oegentligheter upptäckts. De två kontrollenheterna för frukt och 
grönsaker respektive vinodlingsprodukter har likaså företagit många kontroller 
under vilka oegentligheter har avslöjats. 
REVISION 
Under loppet av 1994 har kommissionen tagit två beslut om revision. Det ena 
avsåg revision av EUGFJ:s garantisektions räkenskaper för budgetåret 1991, det 
andra en särskild revision av de utgifter som redovisades av Italien under 
budgetåret 1991 avseende gratisutdelning av jordbruksprodukter till de f.d. 
sovjetrepublikerna. Dessutom har efter ett beslut av rådet som berör tillämpningen 
av mjölkkvoter i Italien, Spanien och Grekland, en omprövning av beslut om 
revision fattats den 30 november 1994. Endast det särskilda beslutet rörande 
Italien berörde budgetåret 1994. 
Kontrolluppdragen rörande utgifter under budgetåret 1992 (till ett belopp av 32 083 
miljoner ecu) började i oktober 1992 och avslutades i september 1994. Revisionen 
har genomförts genom granskning av system och kontroller på platsen för att 
kontrollera överensstämmelsen mellan de redovisade utgifterna och 
gemenskapens bestämmelser. 
Dessutom har medlemsstaternas utbetalande organ varit föremål för en kontroll av 
deras betalningssystem verkställd av externa kontrollföretag. För budgetåret 1992 
har dessa kontroller omfattat 26 av de 44 utbetalande organen, vilka svarar för 
mer än två tredjedelar av EUGFJ:s totala utgifter. 
Den 1 juli 1994 beslutade kommissionen, inom ramen för genomgången av 
revisionsförfarandet, att ett förlikningsorgan skulle inrättas för att säkra en bättre 
dialog mellan medlemsstaterna och kommissionen. Detta organ är i funktion från 
och med revisionen av räkenskaperna för budgetåret 1992. 
Under år 1994 har ändringar genomförts i förordning (EEG) 4045/89, medan 
diskussionerna om ändringar i förordningarna (EEG) 729/70 och 1723/72 som en 
följd av genomgången av revisionen fortsatt.

INTRODUCTORY NOTE 
a) Article 10 of Council 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 its 
expenditure and the conditions under which the Community financing has been effected". 
This Report covers the operations of the EAGGF Guarantee Section for 1994. 
The main task of the Guarantee Section is financing the expenditure arising from the 
common policy on agricultural markets and prices. Under Articles 2 and 3 of Regulation 
(EEC) No 729/70, expenditure consists of refunds on exports to non-Community countries, 
paid under the EEC market organizations, and intervention measures designed to stabilize 
agricultural markets. 
b) Up to and including 1986, the financial year was always the same as the calendar 
year. The amendments made in 1987 to the Regulations governing the financing of 
the common agricultural policy resulted, as regards the Guarantee Section in 
adjustments to the dates of closure of accounts for 1987(1), 1988?) and subsequent 
financial years?), with a corresponding displacement of the Guarantee Section 
financial year relative to the calendar year. This may make it difficult to compare 
these years with previous years, and should be taken into account in examining the 
various tables and annexes. 
N.B.: This report was completed on 21/09/1995 
0 OJ No L 94, 28.4.1970 
C) Financial year 1987: expenditure here covers a period of ten months, from 1 January 1987 
to end October 1987. 
0 Financial year 1988: expenditure here covers a period of eleven and a half months from 
beginning November 1987 to 15 October 1988. 
C) Financial year 1989 et seq.: expenditure here covers a period of twelve months from 
16 October to 15 October of the following year.

(1) The ecu is the unit of account used for the Communities' budget; all receipts and expenditures, 
agricultural and non-agricultural, are expressed in ecus. 
Conversion into national currencies is generally at market rates or "budget rates". 
The common agricultural policy, to operate efficiently, requires that exchange rates between 
national currencies remain fairly stable. In order therefore to lessen the effect on agricultural prices 
of any adjustments to the rates of exchange, conversion into national currencies of agricultural 
prices expressed in ecus is not effected at the real exchange rates of the ecu but at specific rates 
called "green rates". Hence the amount calculated in ecu under agricultural regulations is referred 
to as "ECU(A)". 
However, for the charging to the budget of the financial consequences of agricultural regulations, 
conversion into ecus of national currencies is not at the green rate but at the market or budget rate; 
hence, the amount in ecu to be entered in the accounts is referred to as "ECUfBV. 
(2) Although the monthly budgetary rates for the Belgium franc and the Luxembourg franc are identical, 
the average rate is different because it represents a weighted average, weighted according to 
monthly expenditure in national currencies.

TWENTY-FOURTH ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 
OF THE EAGGF 
GUARANTEE SECTION 
A. TRENDS IN COMMUNITY FINANCING OF PRODUCT MARKETS 
1. The final total of appropriations allocated to the EAGGF Guarantee Section in 1994, 
i.e. the original 1994 budget, the supplementary and amending budget and transfers 
from elsewhere, came to ECU 34 787 million (not including the monetary reserve 
of ECU 1 billion). 
In the 1994 budget year the agricultural guideline, which sets the maximum level of 
Guarantee Section spending, was fixed at ECU 36 465 million, a figure less than for 
budget year 1993 (ECU 36 657 million). 
Total expenditure came to ECU 32 970 million, to which one can add ECU 441.8 
million of spending out of carryovers from 1993. 
Expenditure overall was considerably down, since the total for 1993 had been 
ECU 34 590 million. In this one can see the early positive impact of the reform of the 
common agricultural policy in a generally favourable economic climate (see 
graph 1A). 
2. Despite the fall in spending between 1993 and 1994, the share of EAGGF Guarantee 
Section expenditure in the general budget of the Union went up from 53.8% to 55%. 
This was due to a major drop in spending under the general budget (measured in 
payment appropriations, see graph 1B).

3. Looking at the breakdown of expenditure by economic type of scheme, the following 
trends are apparent: 
- spending on export refunds declined considerably, from ECU 10 159 million in 
1993 to ECU 8 161 million in 1994, representing only 25% of total Guarantee 
Section expenditure; 
- intervention spending in 1994 came to ECU 24 048 million, mainly consisting of 
storage aid and price compensatory payments (production, processing, 
marketing). As a result of a return to more balanced markets, expenditure on 
storage was down by a significant amount from ECU 5 386 million in 1993 to 
ECU 1 070 million in 1994. On the other hand, price compensation was up from 
ECU 21 339 million in 1994 compared with ECU 15 767 million in 1993. This was 
due to the major expansion of production aid schemes (acreage payments, set-
aside, suckler-cow premiums and premiums for male bovines) introduced as part 
of the reform of the CAP. 
4. These trends are reflected in the sector-by-sector breakdown. 
Arable crops, which now unite four former expenditure headings (cereals, oilseeds, 
protein plants and set-aside), accounted for 38% of overall spending. They are followed 
by milk products (13%, down on 1993) and beef and veal (11%). See graph 2A for the 
shares of the other sectors. 
5. Breakdown by Member State (graph 2B). 
France is still the main recipient of Guarantee Section funding at ECU 7 991 million or 
24% of overall spending. It is trailed by Germany (ECU 5 174 million) and Spain 
(ECU 4 284 million). There was a significant drop in expenditure benefiting Italy (from 
ECU 4 754 million in 1993 to ECU 3 446 million in 1994), which claimed almost 
ECU 800 million less in export refunds.

B. CASHFLOW AND MANAGEMENT OF APPROPRIATIONS 
The 1994 budget adopted in December 1993 included an allocation of 
ECU 36 465.0 million for the EAGGF Guarantee Section. A supplementary and amending 
budget reducing these appropriations by ECU 1 678.0 million was adopted during the 
budget year. 
In addition to the 1994 budget appropriations, the EAGGF also had non-automatic 
carryovers from 1993 amounting to ECU 510.0 million and automatically carried-over 
appropriations of ECU 353.8 million.

3. The Commission adopted thirteen decisions granting advances in 1994, twelve of 
these of the regular kind and one supplementary decision to adjust advances to 
match the total spending for the budget year. An ad hoc clearance-of-accounts 
decision had to be adopted in respect of two Member States because, for technical 
and administrative reasons, the transfers between chapters which were needed to 
cover some spending could not be proposed early enough to the Budgetary Authority. 
The same decision made provision for this expenditure to be taken into account in 
1995. 
4. On the basis of Article 13 of Council Decision 94/729/EC on budget discipline, which 
allows the Commission to reduce or temporarily suspend monthly advances where 
expenditure declarations or information sent by Member States are not sufficient for 
the Commission to be sure that funds can be committed in conformity with Community 
rules, the Commission decided to reduce advances in 1994 by ECU 19.8 million in 
respect of spending made after the regulatory cutoff date for which the justification 
provided was not adequate. 
C. PREVENTION AND COMBATTING OF FRAUD 
The Commission both continued and stepped up its activities in 1994 to combat fraud and 
irregularities detrimental to the EAGGF. 
There were three main thrusts to this policy as far as the EAGGF was concerned: 
implementation of legislation on monitoring and to improve the regulatory framework 
and methodology; 
carrying out inquiries and checks, with more visits on the spot; 
establishment and proper operation of specific control systems. 
Measures were also adopted to strengthen administrative penalties and to punish fraud 
more severely. 
Under the Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS), several missions were 
conducted in all Member States in 1994, aimed at checking how the I ACS system was 
being organised and set up; this was in conjunction with on-the-spot administrative checks. 
Particular attention was paid to the establishment of systems for identifying parcels of 
agricultural land and applying Directive 92/102/EEC on the identification and registration 
of animals. 
XI 
Remote sensing has been used systematically by the Member States for monitoring 
purposes. Some countries have carried out a portion of their on-the-spot verifications on 
the basis of aerial photography. Remote sensing has also been employed to validate the 
declarations sent in by farmers under the Integrated System. 
The Commission has continued to improve the regulatory framework in order to tighten 
up controls and make them more effective. In the field of monitoring exports, the Council 
adopted Regulation (EC) No 63/94 replacing Regulation (EEC) No 386/90 and the 
Commission also adopted Regulation (EC) No 3122/94 laying down criteria for risk 
analysis as regards agricultural products receiving refunds. 
In the area of tightening controls (Regulation (EEC) No 307/91), the Commission adopted 
Regulation (EEC) No 1196/94 to enable it to manage more efficiently the Community 
funds set aside for this purpose. 
Good progress has been made on introducing a Regulation dealing with doubtful 
operators (black list). Agreement in principle has already been reached within the Council, 
subject to the opinion of Parliament, and the detailed rules which the Commission is to 
produce have already been discussed with the Member States. 
In the export refund sector, substantive changes have been introduced as regards 
penalties (Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87). 
At the same time the Commission has reinforced its presence on the ground, 
concentrating its activities on various risk sectors. A number of inquiries have been 
started in areas such as cereals, cotton, tobacco, olive oil, fruit and vegetables and 
exports of milk products, beef and wine-sector products. 
Under Regulation (EEC) No 595/91, the Member States reported 1610 cases of 
irregularity in all, representing a total of ECU 417.5 million. In 1993 there were 
1 298 cases involving ECU 248.3 million, so the increase in cases was 24% and in value 
terms 70%. The sectors with the most cases are: cereals, beef, oils and fats. 
Considerable sums were recovered via the clearance of accounts. 
XII 
During 1994, there was an improvement in controls through various specific mechanisms. 
In particular, the olive-oil control agencies carried out large numbers of verifications on 
producers and producer associations, oil mills and packaging plants, in the course of which 
a considerable number of irregularities were detected. The two teams of Commission 
inspectors (fruit and vegetables and wine) also carried out several control exercises during 
which irregularities were uncovered. 
D. CLEARANCE OF ACCOUNTS 
The Commission adopted two clearance decisions in 1994, one covering the Guarantee 
Section in budget year 1991 and the other an ad hoc measure relating to expenditure 
declared by Italy for 1992 involving the supply of free products to the republics of the 
former Soviet Union. After a Council Decision on the application of the milk-quota scheme 
in Italy, Spain and Greece, various past clearance-of-accounts decisions were reviewed 
on 30 November 1994. Only the ad hoc decision for Italy was booked under the 1994 
financial year. 
The control exercise to check expenditure for 1992 (totalling ECU 32 083 million) which 
began in October 1992 was finished in September 1994. This clearance exercise was 
based on a systems audit and on-the-spot checks to determine that declared expenditure 
was in line with Community rules. 
The paying agencies in the Member States were also subjected to validations of their 
payment systems, which were conducted by outside audit companies. These verifications 
covered 26 of the 44 paying agencies in 1992, through which over two thirds of total 
EAGGF spending took place. 
On 1 July 1994 the Commission decided, as part of its review of the clearance-of-accounts 
procedure, to create a conciliation body to ensure a better dialogue between the 
Commission and the Member States. This body will be operational starting with the 1992 
clearance exercise. 
Changes were made during 1994 to Regulation (EEC) No 4045/89, and discussions on 
amending Regulations (EEC) Nos 729/70 and 1723/72 in the wake of the reform of the 
clearance procedure continued.

1.1 EAGGF Guarantee Section budget: appropriations and expenditure in 1994 
1.1.1. 1994 budget 
The initial budget for 1994, adopted on 16 December 1993, provided for EAGGF 
Guarantee Section appropriations totalling ECU 37 465 million. 
The original appropriations were altered by supplementary and amending budget 
No 2 which was adopted on 15 November 1994 and reduced the appropriations 
allocated to the EAGGF Guarantee Section to ECU 34 787 million.

1.1.2. Budgetary discipline 
The 1994 financial year, like previous ones, remained subject to the requirements 
of budgetary discipline and, in particular, observance of the guideline agreed by the 
Brussels European Council in February 1988 and extended to 1999 on the same 
basis by the Edinburgh European Council in December 1992. 
Reflecting the need for control of CAP expenditure, this guideline limits the annual 
rate of growth of this expenditure. 
The general trend in Guarantee Section expenditure since 1989 can be 
summarized as follows:

From 1993 the guideline includes not only all agricultural expenditure met by the 
Guarantee Section but also expenditure under the market organization for fisheries, 
set-aside, income aids and accompanying measures. 
The strengthening of budgetary discipline 
Following on from the Edinburgh European Council of December 1992, the Council 
adopted a new Decision 94/729/EC on budgetary discipline resulting in a number 
of adjustments principally as regards observance of payment deadlines, the nature 
of the information provided by Member States and accompanying measures. This 
Decision will have budgetary consequences from the 1995 budget. 
(a) Budgetarv discipline in relation to chapters (Article 6(7)) 
The new Decision adopted in agreement with and after consulting 
Parliament sets out the procedure to be followed in relation to the chapter. 
If it is concluded as a result of examination that there is a risk of the 
appropriations for a chapter being exceeded at the end of the year, the 
Commission takes action on the chapter concerned, using the management 
powers at its disposal, including those it has under the stabilizing measures, 
to remedy the situation, whenever such action might be effective. If these 
measures prove to be insufficient, the Commission submits proposals to the 
Council for appropriate action to control expenditure, which may include 
proposals for strengthening the stabilizing measures in the relevant sector. 
The European Parliament delivers its opinion within six weeks and the 
Council acts within two months of receiving the Commission's proposal in 
order to bring expenditure back into line with the provision for the budget 
chapter concerned, if possible by the end of the year in question. 
The Commission has said in relation to Article 6(7) that it will act whenever 
such action may affect the cause of the imbalance in the trend of supply and 
demand. It will do so therefore in all cases, except where the imbalance is 
due to unexpected imports or a drop in world prices due to external factors. 
In any event, the guideline must be respected. 
The Commission states that, in circumstances other than those set out in 
Article 6(7), when the appropriations in a given chapter are not sufficient, it 
reserves the right to propose measures to increase the necessary 
appropriations, including if necessary a supplementary and amending 
budget. 
(b) Provisional reduction or suspension of monthly advances (Article 13) 
if the declarations of expenditure or the information submitted by a Member 
State do not enable the Commission to establish whether the commitment 
of funds is in conformity with the relevant Community rules, the Commission 
can initiate a procedure that may result in the provisional reduction or 
suspension of monthly advances. 
The Commission has confirmed that it will apply Article 13 in a moderate way 
as follows. 
Monthly advances may be reduced especially in the following circumstances: 
- where amounts due are not paid into the Community budget by the 
specified deadline; 
- where accounting adjustments are made in the event of manifest errors; 
- where expenditure is clearly ineligible since it does not comply with the 
rules or exceeds maximum ceilings laid down by the rules. 
Monthly advances may be suspended provisionally pending clarification by 
the Member States, especially in the following circumstances: 
- where there is a discrepancy in the figures, with no adequate justification, 
compared with those provided earlier by the Member State itself; 
- where information required under the rules is notified late; 
- where no reasons are given for expenditure declared or where those 
given are inadequate or incorrect; 
- where there is compelling presumptive evidence of failure by the Member 
States to comply with the agricultural rules. 
Generally speaking, most expenditure at present arises directly under the 
rules establishing the market organizations and is therefore compulsory 
expenditure to be implemented by the Member States within a period which 
is often laid down in the rules. Failure to observe the deadline results in the 
expenditure being time barred and ineligible in so far as the EAGGF is 
concerned, with the Member State remaining liable. 
Otherwise a lack of stringency in the observance of deadlines is, firstly, 
harmful to the holders of rights and, secondly, may lead to expenditure being 
transferred to the following year and thus make the budgetary situation 
critical in relation to the guideline. 
This is why, at the end of the 1994 budget year, the Commission refused 
payments to some Member States for overrunning deadlines. 
(c) Special monitoring of expenditure on accompanying measures (Article 6(3) 
As well as drawing up the monthly expenditure profile for the chapters 
covering accompanying measures, the Commission has introduced special 
monitoring of such expenditure. 
This operates as follows: 
At the start of each year a reference table is drawn up for that year showing 
the amounts for each Member State based, in principle, on the forecasts 
contained in the financial statements for programmes, as revised where 
relevant. The table will be brought to the attention of the relevant committee 
(Standing Forestry Committee or Committee on Agricultural Structures and 
Rural Development) and the EAGGF Committee. The forecasts will be 
monitored on the basis of information which Member States are required to 
notify concerning commitments entered into or to be given relating to these 
measures and the resulting expenditure. 
Where the expenditure forecasts exceed the amounts shown in the 
reference table, the budgetary discipline arrangements apply. This means 
that the Commission examines the overrun in relation to the Member State, 
in relation to the measure for all Member States and, lastly, in relation to the 
chapter for all measures. If it concludes that corrective measures need to 
be taken and if it has insufficient powers to act, the Commission makes 
proposals to the Council for appropriate corrective action. 
1.1.3. The monetary reserve 
The ECU 1 billion entered as a provision in the monetary reserve was intended to 
cover significant and unexpected movements in the US dollar/ECU exchange rate 
in relation to the parity used to establish the budget. This reserve is not included 
in the guideline. 
Where savings are made in the Guarantee Section as a result of a favourable 
trend in the parity between the ECU and the dollar, they are transferred to the 
monetary reserve. Where the reverse happens, transfers are made to the budget 
headings for the Guarantee Section affected by this trend. A "franchise" of 
ECU 400 million is allowed, below which transfers to or from the monetary reserve 
are not made. 
The application of these provisions to the 1988, 1989, 1990 and 1991 financial 
years was presented in the 21st Financial Report concerning 1991 (see pages 2 
and 3). For 1992 see the 22nd Report (p. 3) and for 1993 see the 23rd Report 
(P- 2). 
Since the franchise of ECU 400 million was not reached in 1994, no transfers were 
made to or from the monetary reserve. 
As regards the impact of movements in the dollar parity on Guarantee Section 
expenditure in 1994(1), the trend during the period 1 August 1993 to 31 July 1994 
was dollar appreciation (3.6% higher than the budget parity). 
The savings stemming from a 3.6% increase in world prices in dollars converted 
into ecus using the switchover coefficient of 1.207509 amounted to 
ECU 233 million. 
However, the depreciation of the ecu in dollar terms which generated these savings 
was only one of the monetary changes which disturbed the currency markets during 
1994. Movements in the rates of certain Community currencies led, through 
operation of the switchover mechanism, to extra expenditure by the EAGGF 
Guarantee Section estimated at ECU 1 435 million. In addition, the impact of the 
correction factor on refunds and aids the level of which is influenced by trends in 
world prices is estimated at ECU 411 million. In total, therefore, the monetary 
realignments of 1992 and 1993 gave rise to additional expenditure of 
ECU 1 846 million, all of which could be covered from within the guideline because 
of the favourable economic climate in the agricultural sector. 
1.1.4. Transfers of appropriations and appropriations available 
On account of numerous unforeseeable factors, both internal and external, 
including the ECU/US dollar exchange rate, agricultural expenditure may frequently 
diverge in the course of the financial year from the initial budget which is only 
forecasts and is outlined some twelve months before the beginning of the financial 
year in question, i.e. more than twenty months before some expenditure. 
6 
(1) Report on the impact of EAGGF guarantee section expenditure of movements of the 
dollar/ECU exchange rate in 1994 - COM(94) 463 final of 28 October 1994. 
However, since the introduction of the early warning system (cf. 18th Financial 
Report on the Guarantee Fund, page 4), the Commission has been able to monitor 
more closely the trend of agricultural expenditure, chapter by chapter, act 
accordingly and thus ensure compliance with the budget. In view of the rate of 
utilization of the appropriations, however, some transfers proved necessary (see 
Table 6 below and Title II for more detail). 
1.1.5. Agricultural expenditure 
With the above amount of available appropriations, the total agricultural 
expenditure chargeable to the EAGGF Guarantee Section for the 1994 financial 
year and to the budget for that year amounted to: 
- ECU 32 970.4 million, not counting expenditure against carryovers of 
appropriations from 1993 (ECU 441.8 million); 
- ECU 33 412.3 million, taking account of such expenditure. 
Share of EAGGF Guarantee Section expenditure in the general budget 
Total expenditure in 1994 amounted to ECU 32 970.4 million, clearly down on 
1993, when it totalled 35 100.4 million. 
However, despite this reduction, the share of EAGGF Guarantee Section 
expenditure in the total budget of the European Communities increased (from 
53.8% in 1993 to 55% in 1994, see Table 4). This is because of an even greater 
reduction in expenditure under the general budget, which fell from 
ECU 65 268.5 million in 1993 to ECU 59 909.3 million in 1994. It should however 
be noted that this reduction in expenditure relates to payment appropriations, and 
that expenditure under the general budget is on the increase when expressed in 
terms of commitment appropriations. 
Guarantee costs compared with GDP 
Comparison of total expenditure by the EAGGF Guarantee Section in 1994 
(ECU 33 412 million) with the most significant economic indicator i.e. the 
Community's gross domestic product at market prices (GDP), shows a sharp drop 
resulting from the reduction in EAGGF Guarantee Section expenditure. 
The cost of the Guarantee Section represented 0.58% of estimated GDP in 1994, 
compared with 0.64% in 1993 (see Annex 11).

1.2. Fixing of farm prices and related measures for 1994/95 
The Council reached agreement on the 1994/95 prices on 18 and 19 July 1994(1), 
keeping, with a few changes (see below), the institutional prices applied in 
1992/93. 
- In France, production aid for durum wheat was introduced for an area limited 
to 50 000 ha outside traditional production regions. For Spain and Portugal, the 
ceilings referred to in Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 were increased by 
20 000 ha and 5 000 ha respectively. In Italy, Umbria will be considered a 
traditional region for 5 000 ha. 
- The threshold price for broken rice was set at 160-170% of the threshold price 
for maize, not including the monthly increments. The amount of each monthly 
increment was fixed at ECU 1.94/t for the intervention price and ECU 2.42/t for 
the guide price. 
- From 1995/96, production quotas will be introduced for potato starch eligible 
for Community aid. In Germany, a quota of 90 000 tonnes was added to the 
overall quantity to take account of the level of investments carried out in the 
new Länder. In addition, for 1996/97, Germany may, if necessary, have 
recourse to a reserve which may not exceed 110 000 tonnes to cover cases 
of production arising from irreversible investments made before 
31 January 1994. Similarly, a 2 000 tonnes quota has been added to the 
overall quantity for Spain. 
- Consumption aid for olive oil was reduced to ECU 10/100 kg. Production aid 
was fixed at ECU 117.6/100 kg and the related withheld quantities, the 
intervention prices, the representative market price, threshold price and 
quantities withheld from the consumption aid were all adjusted accordingly. 
- With regard to sugar, the amount of ECU 0.35/100 kg for the reimbursement 
of storage costs for white sugar was increased to ECU 0.40/100 kg per month. 
- With regard to fruit and vegetables, it was decided that a premium would be 
granted for the grubbing of apple trees during the 1994/95 marketing year. The 
premium was fixed at ECU 5 000/ha for the grubbing of entire orchards and at 
ECU 3 500/ha in other cases. 
- The premium for oriental tobacco varieties (groups VI, VII and VIII) was 
increased by 5%. 
9 
(1) The details of this agreement are contained in the issue of "CAP Working Notes" on the 
1994/95 agricultural prices - Council decisions. 
- The additional reduction in the intervention price for butter was increased to 
1%. 
- The changes in the rules governing the private storage of sheepmeat entered 
into force on 1 August 1994. 
I-3- The agrimonetarv situation 
On21 December 1993 the Council amended Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92totake 
account of the problems caused by revaluing currencies in the autumn of 1993. 
Briefly, the gap of 4 percentage points was increased to 5 points and made 
asymmetrical (-2/+3) and flexible up to an upper limit of +5 in order to limit price 
reductions in national currencies in countries with strong currencies(1). 
Under Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92, the switchover (SO) mechanism was to be 
abandoned from 1 January 1995, with a return to the fixed narrow margins of-2 
and +2. 
The Commission was to report to the Council by 31 December 1994 on the agri-
monetary situation and make appropriate proposals so that the Council could 
decide on future policy in this field. 
The Council took certain decisions on the basis of that report. Regulation (EEC) 
No 3813/92 provided for elimination of the correcting factor (SO). This meant that 
the agricultural conversion rates in force on 1 February 1995 were those in force 
on 31 January 1995 divided by 1.207509. Furthermore, prices and amounts in 
ecus whose equivalent in national currency was subject at 31 January 1995 to the 
correcting factor of 1.207509 were to be multiplied by this factor when first applied 
after 1 February 1995. Thus, the prices in national currency will not be modified. 
Regulation (EC) No 150/95 also confirmed retention of the five-point gap (-2/+5), 
flexible up to a maximum of 5 points. It also introduced the concepts of 
"appreciable reduction" and period of confirmation. When an appreciable reduction 
occurs, the conversion rate of a strong currency may not be reduced on the basis 
of a single reference period but must await confirmation periods. 
Articles .8 and 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 concerning compensatory aid 
were amended. 
10 
(1) It should be noted that the upper limit reached during 1994 was + 4.062 (Irish pound on 
21 January 1994). 
1.4. Introduction of new mechanisms under the reform of the CAP 
The main mechanisms for the reform of the CAP were set out in the 23rd Financial 
Report (pp. 8 -11). It is now possible to make an initial assessment of the 
introduction of this reform, with particular reference to the arable crops and 
beef/veal sectors and to accompanying measures. 
1.4.1. Crop production 
Final figures from all Member States on areas having received aid for arable crops 
are now available. 
They are summarized in the two tables attached (annexes 16a and 16b), on which 
the following comments may be made: 
1.4.1.1. Number of applications 
In the Community as a whole (see also Table 16a annexed), the total number of 
applications exceeded 2 500 000, of which 541 000 were for the general scheme 
(large producers) and 2 000 000 for the simplified scheme (small producers). 
The vast majority of large producers appear to have participated in the scheme 
since it was estimated when the reform was proposed (but before silage was 
included) that the general scheme would apply to 516 000 holdings. 
However, in the case of the simplified scheme, 3 800 000 applications were 
expected, 1 800 000 more than were actually received. 
1.4.1.2. Base area 
The total areas for which per hectare aid were paid was less than the base area 
in every Member State. 
The inclusion of areas of forage crops for which aid was not requested but which 
had to be taken into account in making the comparison with the base area 
increases the areas affected, although without exceeding the base area at national 
level. 
In the Community as a whole, the area for which applications were made was 
about 45.9 million ha, 3.1 million ha less than the Community base area of 
49 million ha (including the increase decided for Germany in December 1993). 
11 
(a) General comments 
. In general, professional producers (large producers) participated in large 
numbers in the aid scheme, as is shown by analysis of set-aside (see 
below). 
. No aid applications were received in respect of substantial areas held by 
small producers. This was particularly true in Italy (about 1.3 million ha), 
the regions of Galicia, Andalusia, Murcia, the Balearic Islands, Asturias, 
Cantabria and the Canary Islands in Spain (over 1 million ha), Portugal 
(almost 300 000 ha) and Greece (about 200 000 ha). 
(b) Overshooting 
In some regions of the Community it was found that the base areas had 
been exceeded: 
Germany 
Applications received in September 1993 showed that all the Länder of the 
former GDR had exceeded their base areas. 
In December 1993 the Council decided to increase Germany's base area by 
181 000 ha. The Commission also introduced a system for the gradual 
adjustment of penalties which, in the 1993/94 marketing year, added 
150 000 ha to the surface area and so absorbed the overshooting. 
Spain 
Base areas were exceed in the "Regadio" (irrigated) area for crops other 
than maize (about 49 000 ha). 
As a result of the persistent drought in southern Spain, the Commission 
decided to apply reductions only in the case of sunflowers. 
United Kingdom 
Scotland: Overshooting outside the less-favoured areas amounted to 16.6% 
(62 550 ha). Correction of the historical data on which the base areas in 
Scotland had been calculated reduced this figure to 5.4% (23 247 ha). 
In December 1993 it was decided to apply to Scotland a system for the 
gradual adjustment of penalties which reduced the overshooting on 1993/94 
to 0.54% of the base area (2 324 ha). 
12 
Belgium 
North: The base area for maize was exceeded by 16.7% (16 200 ha). This 
applied only to professional producers (4.4% of the total area for which 
maize applications were made) and was cancelled for the 1993/94 
marketing year by an amendment to the Council Regulation in December 
1993. 
Ireland 
The base area for maize was exceeded by 699% (1 100 ha) in the case of 
professional producers only. Ireland has a maize base of 200 ha while 
applications related to 1 400 ha, of which 1 130 ha was for small producers. 
As in the case of Belgium, this overshooting was cancelled for the 1993/94 
marketing year by an amendment to the Council Regulation in December 
1993. 
1.4.1.3. Set-aside

The area set aside which was not accepted for payments following the EAGGF 
checks may be estimated at about 70 000 ha. 
Three Member States exceeded forecasts: Germany (Eastern Länder), Portugal 
and particular/ Spain.In the last two cases the extent by which set-aside 
exceeded expectations was very considerable and may be explained either by 
errors in the historical statistics used or by the use of set-aside for agronomic 
purposes. 
In the Netherlands and, to a lesser extent, in Belgium, Italy, Denmark and France, 
many producers preferred, for economic reasons, to submit their applications as 
small producers, even if this meant a loss of aid for one or two hectares, or to 
transfer part of their area for arable crops to the "fodder cereals" scheme (which 
is not taken into account in calculating the set-aside obligation). 
13 
In other Member States, particularly France and especially the United Kingdom, 
a number of professional producers preferred not to receive per hectare aid for the 
first year of transition. 
The areas set aside and devoted to non-food crops amounted to some 
264 000 ha. The figure as a percentage of rotational set aide varied from 6% in 
Germany to 22% in Italy, with most Member States falling into the bracket 9-16%. 
In percentage terms, non-food set aside was negligible in Spain (6 000 ha) and 
was not measured in Greece, Ireland, Luxembourg and Portugal. 
It should also be noted that some 1 650 000 ha (including 800 000 ha in Italy) 
remain set aside under the five year programme. This means that abandonment 
of the five-year programme would have affected about 100 000 ha in the first year 
of application of the reform, the only area to have reached the end of the five 
years of the scheme. 
1.4.1.4. Budgetary aspects 
On the basis of information supplied by the Member States, expenditure on per 
hectare aid in the 1993/94 marketing year is estimated at about ECU 10.5 billion, 
divided as follows:

1.4.2. Livestock production 
Since the reform had little impact on milk and milk products under the quota 
system, only the beef/veal sector (i.e. aid to suckler cows and male bovines) is 
outlined. 
1.4.2.1. Suckler cow premiums 
Total applications in 1993 (paid quite all in 1994 the rest having to be paid in 
1995) for suckler cow premiums covered 9.2 million head, of which 800 000 were 
in mixed herds.

Compared with 1992 (9.8 million head), this represents a reduction and 
applications are still lower than potential entitlement (10.7 million head). There are 
still a number of unused entitlements in some countries (e.g. France and Ireland). 
The restrictions introduced by the reform (density factors, etc.) have also resulted 
in a reduction in the total number of applications (e.g. in Spain, Denmark and the 
Netherlands). 
15 
1.4.2.2. Male bovines 
Total applications for premiums for male bovines in 1993 amounted to some 
6.4 million head for the first age group and 3 million head for the second, as 
compared with 10.3 million head in 1992. This difference was due to a large extent 
to the fact that applications were very high during the reference year 1992. 
Applications are below the maximum ceilings of 11.52 million head for 1993 and 
1994 and 10.28 million head for 1995. This is partly a result of the density criteria 
introduced by the reform.

1.4.3. Accompanying measures 
The so-called accompanying measures are an essential component of the 1992 
reform of the CAP since Council Regulations (EEC) Nos 2078/92 (agri-
environmental measures), 2079/92 (early retirement) and 2080/92 (afforestation) 
offer farmers an alternative source of income while pursuing the reform in economic 
terms through the extensification of production and the conversion of agricultural 
land into woodland. 
In terms of implementation, the relevant regulations set out a general framework 
for assistance and the conditions of eligibility for Community finance but, in order 
to take better account of the great diversity of conditions from one country or region 
to another, the specific conditions for assistance (measures and levels of aid) are 
set out in national or regional (as appropriate) multiannual programmes drawn up 
by the Member States and approved by the Commission. 
The Member States submitted their programmes in the second half of 1993. 
Consequently, a limited number were approved in 1993 and the bulk in 1994. In 
terms of the financial estimates for the programmes, the Member States proved 
optimistic as regards the scope of implementation of the programmes and 
particularly as regards the rate of implementation. Unlike the Commission, they 
expected the start-up in 1994 to be very rapid and on a large scale. 
This situation forced the Commission both to reduce the expectations of the 
Member States to more realistic levels and to raise its own original estimates. 
However, to avoid expenditure getting out of hand, each decision approving 
programmes specified the total amount of expenditure for 1993-97. This amount, 
which was to be regarded as a ceiling and included provision for revision in the 
light of expenditure actually incurred, was broken down by year in the financial 
statement of each programme. 
The programmes approved at the end of 1994 and the estimated amounts they 
contain are given in Annexes 26 to 28. 
This financial framework was completed by the introduction by means of 
Commission Regulations Nos 1404/94,1405/94 and 1054/94 of a special system 
for monitoring expenditure based on the regular communication by the Member 
States of commitments entered into and to be undertaken under these measures 
and the consequent expenditure. 
17 
In the case of 1994, the appropriations originally entered were increased as a 
result of the estimates made in the programmes for 1994. Expenditure declared 
at 15 October 1994 amounted to ECU 412 million, ECU 155 million less than the 
amount originally entered (including carryovers) and ECU 224 million less than the 
amount proposed in supplementary and amending budget (SAB) No 2/94. 
The reasons of this under-utilization are due above all to the programmes being 
launched much more slowly than expected, the adoption at national level of the 
implementing and control provisions having been slower than was initially 
estimated by the Member States. 
This situation was aggravated: 
- in the case of afforestation, by the unfavourable climatic conditions affecting 
certain regions (drought in Spain); 
- in the case of early retirement, because the unattractiveness to farmers of the 
Spanish programme resulted in a very low level of implementation. 
However, it should be noted that expenditure which the Member States were 
unable to undertake and/or declare by the deadline as a result of these delays in 
implementation has been carried forward to 1995. These amounts total ECU 105 
million, of which ECU 95 million is for the environment, which, together with the 
ECU 412 million implemented in 1994, gives a total of ECU 517 million, which is 
close to the amount in SAB No 2/94. 
Chapter B1-50 also finances the so-called "former system" accompanying 
measures.These are commitments entered into under Regulations Nos 1096/88 
(early retirement) and 2328/91 (agri-environmental and afforestation measures), 
expenditure on which will decline as they are taken over by the new system. 
However, in 1994 expenditure on these measures turned out to be ECU 39 million 
greater than the appropriations originally entered as pending applications under 
the early retirement programme in Greece were settled, with the consequent 
retrospective payment of the aid in question. 
18 
2. FINANCING OF THE MARKETS 
2.1. Comparison between original appropriations and expenditure in 1994 
The original EAGGF guarantee appropriations amounted to ECU 36 465 million(1). 
Expenditure for the financial year totalled ECU 32 970.4 million. On top of this is 
expenditure incurred using carryovers from 1993 amounting to ECU 441.8 million. 
The difference between the original appropriations and actual expenditure is 
explained by the fact that agricultural expenditure, which is significantly affected 
by external factors (e.g. the weather, the international trade situation, fluctuations 
in the US dollar/ecu parity) often departs from the original forecasts made 
20 months before some items of expenditure are actually incurred. 
A supplementary and amending budget was accordingly adopted to take account 
of the new data available, thus reducing the gap between final appropriations and 
expenditure (see Table 7). 
Thus, taking into account supplementary and amending budget 2/94 adopted by 
the budget authority and transfers which brought the total EAGGF guarantee 
appropriations subject to the guideline to ECU 34 787 million(2), unused 
appropriations for 1994 totalled ECU 1 816.6 million. 
Differences between original appropriations and actual expenditure are the result 
of two types of factors, namely: 
- non-market factors, accounting for a total of ECU 590 million, such as the 
impact of monetary realignments within the EMS, the variation in the US 
dollar/ecu parity, the outcome of the clearance of accounts for previous years; 
- factors specific to the markets. 
(1) Not including the monetary reserve of ECU 1 billion. 
(2) As a consequence, since the initial budget for subsection B1 provided for appropriations 
of ECU 36 465 million, the appropriations allocated to that subsection were reduced by 
ECU 1 678 million during the financial year. 
19 
2.1.1. Non-market factors 
These can be summed up as follows: 
1. The impact of monetary realignments within the EMS: 
+ ECU 1 435 million 
The monetary realignments of September and November 1992 and January and 
May 1993 affected the switchover coefficient, raising it from 1.145 to 1.207 and 
incurring additional expenditure of ECU 1 435 million for 1994. 
The Council decided to extend the "switchover" system beyond 1 January 1993 
to 31 December 1994. 
2. The impact of the dollar: - ECU 233 million 
(see page 6). 
3. The budget impact of the clearance of accounts for previous years: 
- ECU 612 million 
In accordance with the Commission decisions in September 1992 and July 1993 
regarding the clearance of accounts for 1990, ECU 612 million was recovered 
from the Member States in 1994, including ECU 467 million by virtue of the 
correction relating to 1990 as a result of the failure of Italy and Spain to apply 
the additional levy on milk.

2.1.2. Budgetary analysis of the main chapters and/or articles 
The main events explaining the difference between the initial appropriations 
and actual expenditure(1) are summed up below. The differences shown are 
therefore those between expenditure and initial appropriations. However, the main 
events explaining the difference between expenditure and appropriations entered 
in supplementary and amending budget 2/94 will also be shown. 
CROP PRODUCTS 
Chapter B1-10: Arable crops - ECU 772.7 million 
The main reasons explaining this difference are the following: 
Article 100: refunds - ECU 318.8 million 
Article 110: storage - ECU 152.3 million 
Firstly, the new scheme of direct aid to producers was applied to cereals for the 
first time in 1993/94. The set-aside of 4.6 million hectares resulted in a substantial 
drop in production, which amounted to 163 million tonnes, i.e. less than the 1993 
harvest, which was already low because of the drought. The sharpest fall was in 
the production of durum wheat, which fell to 6.2 million tonnes as against the 
8.3 million tonnes forecast when the budget was drawn up. 
In addition, the fall in market prices during the first year of application of the reform 
led during the initial phase, to an increase in domestic consumption for 
feedingstuffs. 
Lower production together with a slow-down in placing on the market (taking 
account of the cash advance provided by the per-hectare aids) firmed up prices 
and slowed down the rate at which cereals were incorporated into feedingstuffs. At 
the end of the financial year the Commission therefore slowed down the export rate 
and returned cereals to the market from intervention stocks. The large exports of 
cereals from intervention stocks (13 million tonnes instead of the 6 tonnes initially 
planned) rather than from the free market therefore had the consequence of cutting 
both refund costs and storage costs. Storage costs were further reduced by the 
removal from storage of 6 million tonnes sold on the internal market in order to 
reduce the pressure on prices referred to above. 
(1) Monthly carryovers under the warning astern give a detailed view of actual expenditure 
compared with the appropriations allocated. 
The dollar rate and the large sales decided on at the end of the year explain the 
lower expenditure in relation to the supplementary and amending budget, which 
could not take account of these late developments. 
Articles 104 and 105: aids per hectare -ECU 379.1 million 
Expenditure on the balance (50%) for aid for oilseeds (1993/94 marketing year) 
was lower because of a drop in the level of aid following an increase in the 
average price. On the other hand, the payment of the advance (50%) on aid for 
oilseeds (1994/95 marketing year) was higher owing to a higher reference area 
than expected. 
Expenditure on per hectare aid for cereals and protein crops was lower than the 
appropriations provided for. the eligible area was less than planned for the 
simplified scheme for small producers and the additional aid for durum wheat 
covered a lower area than expected (general scheme). 
Article 106: Set-aside + ECU 39.9 million 
The level of expenditure on set-aside was close to that provided for, except for 
expenditure on the five-year set-aside scheme, the increase in which explains the 
slight overshooting on the appropriations in the SAB. 
Chapter B1-11: Sugar - ECU 37.5 million 
Community output of white sugar was higher than the forecasts, while consumption 
fell, resulting in greater quantities to be sold on the world market. World supply 
being weaker than demand, world prices rose, facilitating the disposal of non-quota 
sugar. 
Article 110: Refunds - ECU 21.6 million 
Exports of sugar produced within quota were at the level of the budgetary 
assumptions. However, the actual average level of the export refund was lower 
than that used in the budget. This combined with the favourable development of 
the dollar parity resulted in a saving. 
Article 111: Intervention - ECU 15.9 million 
Expenditure was close to the initial estimates for the various items. 
24 
Chapter B1-12: Olive oil - ECU 179.5 million 
After the bumper crop of 1991/92, the production of 1992/93 was lower, market 
prices consequently increased. 
Article 120: Refunds - ECU 54.2 million 
Moderate production led to lower exports than anticipated at average refund levels 
lower than those provided for in the budget. 
Article 121: Production aid - ECU 63.6 million 
In view of the drop in production, the percentage of the advance paid to producers 
was increased. However, since Italy had put off payment of the balance from 
1992/93 and Greece that of the advance for 1993/94, there was considerable 
under-utilization of the appropriations in the SAB. 
Article 122: Consumption aid - ECU 44.6 million 
Expenditure was close to the appropriations provided for in the initial budget. 
However, the appropriations of the SAB were under-utilized because payments 
were less than expected in Italy. 
Chapter B1-13: Dried fodder and dried vegetables 
+ ECU 11.4 million 
Article 130: Production aid + ECU 13.4 million 
for dried fodder 
The important increase in production is one of the reasons for the overspending, 
which was however mitigated by a drop in the average rate of aid and by dollar-
rate savings. 
Article 131: aid per hectare - ECU 1.7 million 
for dried vegetables 
Expenditure corresponded to the initial appropriations because the drop in the area 
for which aid was paid was offset by an increase in the amount of aid. 
25 
Chapter B1-14: Fibre plants + ECU 55.5 million 
Article 140: Fibre flax and hemp - ECU 13.8 million 
Although the aid was paid for the area envisaged, the amount of aid was lower. 
Article 141: Cotton + ECU 70.2 million 
Despite dollar-rate savings, the harvest and average rate of aid were higher than 
expected, hence the high level of expenditure. The overrun of the MGQ would 
have led to a 20% reduction in prices had the Council not limited it to 15%: the 
increase in production was therefore not fully offset by the stabilizer. The overrun 
on the appropriations of the SAB can be explained by the very early start to the 
1994/95 harvest, resulting in payments at the end of the financial year. 
Chapter B1-15: Fruit and vegetables - ECU 165.2 million 
Article 150: Fresh fruit and vegetables - ECU 56.9 million 
Refund expenditure was higher than anticipated; the SAB took account of this. 
However, requirements for citrus-fruit processing were lower than expected, so 
total expenditure fell short of the appropriation. 
Article 151: Processed fruit and vegetables - ECU 108.3 million 
The lower expenditure is the result of a drop in the aid for the processing of 
tomatoes (smaller eligible quantities than anticipated and a reduction in the aid). 
In addition, there was a drop in the aid for the processing of fruit and a smaller 
area eligible for aid per hectare for grapes. 
Chapter B1-16: Wine - ECU 390.8 million 
Table wine production was very low and withdrawals and distillation were therefore 
lower than the budget estimates. Moreover, the premiums for the permanent 
abandonment of areas planted to vineyards were lower than expected. 
Chapter B1-17: Tobacco - ECU 177.6 million 
The lower expenditure results from a decrease in the rhythm of payment for 
premiums following a smaller harvest in 1993 and a smaller quantity offered for 
intervention (although intervention has been abolished as from the harvest 1993, 
the 1992 harvest can be taken into intervention until 1995). 
26 
Chapter B1-18: Other crop products - ECU 106.9 million 
This chapter covers the financing of various operations. Most of the under-
utilization is due to hops, the Poseican programme and rice: at the end of the 
financial year, only part of the aid for hops for 1994/95 had been paid; expenditure 
under POSEICAN was lower than anticipated because of a large proportion of 
supplies from outside the Community; rice production once again dropped 
suddenly following a serious drought. 
LIVESTOCK PRODUCTS 
Chapter B1-20: Milk and milk products + ECU 4.8 million 
Expenditure was close to the initial appropriations, which amounted to ECU 4.2 
billion. Under-utilization and over-spending cancelled each other out. 
Milk production remained below the quotas, with particularly low production in the 
five new German Länder. The stagnation of production is due to the shrinking of 
the dairy herd following the retirement of a significant number of old producers; 
this has not been fully offset by the rise in yields. The Articles with the biggest 
gaps are as follows: 
Article 200: Refunds - ECU 65.2 million 
There was a drop in exports of butter and skimmed-milk powder (while cheese 
exports increased); this development was due to the high price of these products 
in relation to the purchasing power of potential customers and the loss of 
competitiveness in relation to the main competitors. 
Article 201: Intervention storage of skimmed milk powder + ECU 74.4 million 
Large-scale, unexpected buying-in operations were necessary to relieve the 
internal market of the unexported quantities. 
Article 202: Intervention in the form of aid for the use of skimmed milk powder 
- ECU 31.8 million 
The under-utilization reflects the fact that aid covered a smaller quantity than 
expected because of lower milk production and increases in casein exports. 
27 
Article 203: Intervention storage of butter and of cream - ECU 119.4 million 
The lower expenditure is mainly explained by smaller quantities bought into 
intervention. 
Article 204 Other measures + ECU 94.4 million 
Butterfat 
The quantities of butter coming directly from the market and benefiting from 
special disposal were larger than anticipated. 
Article 206: Other measures + ECU 70.9 million 
The rise in expenditure is especially due to the continuation of the scheme to 
supply milk to schools following the Council's decision that the Community budget 
should bear a higher cost than originally proposed, after the abolition of the co-
responsibility levy, which had provided most of the funding for the measure. 
Chapter B1-21: Beef and veal - ECU 1 319.4 million 
The rebalancing of the internal market (with production falling to a level close to 
that of domestic consumption, which has itself fallen slightly), together with very 
high export levels, allowed market to be rationalized, with prices recovering and 
a spectacular reduction in public stocks. 
Article 210: Refunds + ECU 806.4 million 
Overspending was due to a very large volume of exports from the free market. 
Article 211: Storage - ECU 1 817 million 
Intervention buying-in stopped almost completely and sales boomed at good 
prices. 
Article 212: Intervention other than storage - ECU 308.8 million 
The new arrangements under the CAP reform were applied for the first time to 
applications submitted in 1993. The number of animals eligible for the premium for 
male bovines was smaller than anticipated. 
28 
Chapter B1-22: Sheepmeat and goatmeat - ECU 307.2 million 
There was a reduction in number of animals eligible for the premium and prices 
rose. 
Thus, in view of market trends, expenditure on the premium for both 1993 and 
1994 was less than anticipated. Moreover, there were changes in the rate of 
payments and payments were late in certain Member States. 
Chapter B1-23: Pigmeat + ECU 222.3 million 
Article 230: Refunds + ECU 137.1 million 
The substantial overspending can be explained by the payment of special refunds 
for exports to the CIS decided on to relieve the market, suffering from 
overproduction. Moreover, exports of sausages and preserves as well as the 
refund rates for carcasses were higher than anticipated. 
Article 231 : Private storage - ECU 24.1 million 
The contracts concluded in 1993 and paid in 1994 concerned very small quantities 
and no contracts were concluded in 1994 in view of the special exports mentioned 
above. 
Article 239: Other measures + ECU 109.3 million 
Expenditure on controlling epizootic diseases was very high to cope with outbreaks 
of classical swine fever in Germany, Belgium the Netherlands. The destruction of 
more than 1.5 million pigs and piglets had to be financed. 
Chapter B1-24: Eggs and poultry + ECU 62.6 million 
Article 240: Refunds for eggs - ECU 5 million 
Exports of egg for hatching were lower than those provided for in the budget. 
29 
Article 241 : Refunds for poultry + ECU 67.6 million 
Overspending was due to an increase in poultry exports despite the fall in refunds. 
Chapter B1-25: Other livestock products - ECU 38.7 million 
Again, under-utilization of appropriations is mainly due to the Poseican 
programme, which absorbed few funds: beef and veal imports came from public 
stocks at low prices and without aid. 
Chapter B1-26: Fisheries - ECU 1.5 million 
Under-utilization is due to the fact that expenditure on the programmes for the 
remotest regions did not absorb all the appropriations credits provided for. This is 
despite the introduction, alongside the aid for cephalopods, of a new measure 
financing the excess cost of disposal of fishery products. 
OTHER SECTORS 
Chapter B1-30 chapter: Refunds for non-Annex II products 
+ ECU 54.4 million 
Exports of goods obtained by processing agricultural products were higher than 
anticipated. 
Chapter B1-32: MCAs + ECU 3.5 million 
The introduction of the single market on 1 January 1993 implied, by the same 
token, the abolition of MCAs, the dismantling of which had almost been completed 
before the currency realignments of September and October 1992. 
However, the devaluation of certain Community currencies involved the creation 
of negative MCAs in Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain and Greece until 1 January 
1993, the date the system was abolished. 
This expenditure corresponds to outstanding payments. 
30 
Chapter B1-33: Refunds on food aid - ECU 70 million 
The reason for the under-utilization was a reduction in the quantities exported in 
the form of food aid, particularly cereals, rice and milk powder. 
Chapter B1-34: Interest - ECU 26.7 million 
This fall in expenditure is due to the interest-rate reduction granted to the Member 
States concerned as well as to the fall in the general level of expenditure. 
Chapter B1-35: Distribution of agricultural products to deprived persons 
in the Community 
- ECU 38.6 million 
Not all the appropriations, which had been increased at the request of Parliament, 
could be used because certain Member States were not able to dispose of the 
goods allocated to them within the time limits laid down. 
Chapter B1-38: Rural development schemes linked to market operations 
- ECU 93.3 million 
The number of applications for the premium for suckler-cows in mixed herds in 
1993 was smaller than anticipated. It was decided to restrict advance payments 
of the ewe premium in mountain, hill and less-favoured areas to 90% in 1994, and 
even then certain countries could not make all the payments. Lastly, expenditure 
on quality promotion measures was very low because the promotion policy was still 
in the launching phase. 
Chapter B1-40:lncome Aid - ECU 28 million 
The under-utilization arises from a slower rate of implementation than expected. 
31 
Chanter B1-50: Accompanying measures - ECU 54.9 million 
Article 500: old arrangements + ECU 39.4 million 
Article 501 : new arrangements - ECU 94.3 million 
The rate of implementation of the programmes under new measures approved 
by the Council on 30 July 1992 is the reason for the under-utilization. Although 
many programmes were approved, which explains the increased appropriations 
allocated in the SAB, many Member States were not, for administrative reasons, 
able to declare payments before the end of the financial year.

2.2. Breakdown of expenditure by economic type 
On the basis of total expenditure against the 1994 budget, i.e. ECU 32 208.7 
million, expenditure on export refunds amounted to ECU 8 160.5 million (25.3%) 
and that on intervention to ECU 24 048.1 million (74.7%) (see Annex 5). Last year, 
out of total expenditure against the 1993 budget (ECU 34 433.9 million), 
expenditure on refunds amounted to ECU 10 159.3 million (29.5%) and that on 
intervention to ECU 24 274.6 million (70.5%). 
2.2.1. Refunds 
The breakdown of expenditure on refunds by main product group is as follows: 
SECTORS 1993 1994 
- Arable crops 28.0% 18.5% 
- Milk products 22.5% 23.6% 
- Beef and veal 16.8% 20.9% 
- Sugar 15.1% 16.9% 
- Non Annex II products 7.3% 7.7% 
2.2.2. Intervention 
According to article 3 par.1 of the Regulation (EEC) 729/70, intervention 
(ECU 24 048.1 million) covers not only storage expenditure (ECU 1 069.6 million 
i.e. 4.4% of the total of intervention expenditure) and withdrawals (ECU 725.7 
million i.e. 3.0%), but also price compensating aids (ECU 21 339.2 million i.e. 
88.7%) and guidance premiums (ECU 911.6 million i.e. 3.8%) (see annex 6). 
On the basis of expenditure against the 1994 budget, expenditure on intervention 
related mainly to the following product groups: 
SECTORS 1993 1994 
- Arable crops 34.6% 46.3% 
- Milk products 12.0% 9.5% 
- Olive oil 9.8% 7.3% 
- Beef and veal 9.4% 7.3% 
- Fruit and vegetables 6.1% 5.4% 
- Sheepmeat and goatmeat 7.4% 5.3% 
- Wine 5.8% 4.6% 
- Tobacco 4.6% 4.2%

2.2.2.1. Price compensating aids remain the most important type of intervention. 
This heading groups aids granted for production, processing and marketing so 
that consumer prices are competitive with products imported from third countries. 
Aids per hectare, set-aside, the premium for male bovine animals and the suckler 
cow premium, introduced under the CAP reform, are booked as this type of aid 
since they are production aids. Since 1994 is the first financial year in which the 
reform was fully applied, expenditure on these aids accounts for most of the 
increase in this type of expenditure. 
This type of aid accounts for 88.7% of total intervention (1993: 65.1%) and 66.3% 
of total expenditure against the 1994 budget (1993: 45.8%). 
SECTORS 1993 1994

- Sheepmeat and goatmeat 1 797 1 278 
- Tobacco 1 119 965 
- Beef and veal 892 1 967 
Annex 7, which gives the breakdown of those aids, shows that production aids are 
mainly granted for arable crops (cereals, oilseeds and protein crops), beef, 
sheepmeat and goatmeat and olive oil. However, aids for processing and 
promotion are concentrated on milk products, olive oil and fruit and vegetables. 
2.2.2.2. Storage intervention totalled to ECU 1 069.6 million, i.e. 4.4% of all intervention 
(1993:22.3%) and 3.3% of all expenditure against the 1994 budget (1993:15.6%). 
This type of intervention covers the costs of storage, whether public or private (the 
details of expenditure are given in Annex 9). On the basis of a total of 
ECU 1 069.6 million, expenditure on private storage totalled ECU 811 million and 
that on public storage ECU 258 million.

Private storage aids relate mainly to sugar (ECU 551 million), but costs in this 
sector are covered by the collection of storage levies from sugar manufacturers 
(see Annex 13); then come storage costs for milk products (ECU 167 million) and 
for wine/alcohol (ECU 54 million). 
A detailed analysis of the large reduction in public stocks (in terms of both quantity 
and value) is contained in paragraph 2.3. It explains the drop in expenditure in this 
field. 
2.2.2.3. Withdrawals and similar operations affect only a limited number of sectors. They 
account for 3% of total intervention and 2.3% of total expenditure, as against 4.8% 
and 3.4% respectively in 1993. 
2.2.2.4. Guidance premiums are granted only in the fruit and vegetables, wine, milk 
products and tobacco sectors. They account for 3.8% of total intervention and 
2.8% of total expenditure against the 1994 budget, compared with 5.0% and 3.5% 
respectively for 1993. 
In the fruit and vegetables sector, these premiums make up the Community's 
contribution to the financing of schemes for developing and improving the 
consumption and use of nuts and/or locust-beans, and to the financing of 
expenditure on schemes for grubbing fruit trees. In the wine sector, these 
premiums are granted for permanent abandonment land under vines. In the milk 
sector, they are granted for the permanent abandonment of milk production, as 
compensation for temporary suspension of milk quotas and the surrender of milk 
quotas, this latter measure arising from the implementation of the Community 
programme for the redistribution of milk quotas to producers in regions of the 
Community where production conditions are difficult. In the tobacco sector 
premiums are granted for varietal conversion. 
2.2.2.5. Set-aside and income aid 
At ECU 1 742.9 million, including ECU 1 712.9 million for set-aside, this category 
accounts for 8.2% of intervention expenditure (against 2% in 1993) and 7.2% of 
total expenditure (intervention + refunds); this is due to the sharp increase in 
expenditure on set-aside under the reform. 
2.2.3. Supporting measures 
For the same reason (reform of the CAP), expenditure on supporting measures 
has increased sharply, and amounts to ECU 490.1 million, compared with 
ECU 221.7 million in 1993.

2.3. Trend of public stocks (see Annexes 9 and 10) 
Between 1 October 1993 and 30 September 1994, the date on which public 
storage accounts were closed, the book value of public stocks fell considerably, 
from ECU 2 659.7 million to ECU 1 499.5 million, a drop of 44%. 
An initial examination shows that the proportion of total book value of stocks 
accounted for by cereals and rice, which had been in decline until the 1989 
financial year, has continued to increase: from 52.8% in 1992 to 70.6% in 1994. 
The same applies to oils and fats. The share of milk products, again in terms of 
percentage of book value, after showing a decline between 1992 and 1993, 
increased again because of the increase in stocks of skimmed milk powder. Beef, 
on the other hand, fell back sharply (from 34.5% in 1992 to 19.3% in 1993 and to 
9.4% in 1994). 
More detailed analysis of the 1992 and 1993 figures shows the following: 
a) Cereals and rice 
- A substantial reduction in the quantities of stocks of 45.2% (1993: 
29 081 653 t; 1994: 15 942 5221). The reduction was particularly marked 
for common wheat, durum wheat, barley and maize; sorghum stocks were 
the only ones to rise slightly. 
- A resulting fall in the book value of cereals stocks of 39.3% (1993: 
ECU 1 745.7 million; 1994: ECU 1 059.2 million). During 1994,depreciations 
affecting stocks of cereals and rice totalled ECU 303.6 million. 
b) Oils and fats 
- After growing considerably between 1992 and 1993, in terms of quantities, 
olive-oil stocks fell from 167 275 t in 1993 to 125 625 t in 1994; 
- Accordingly, the book value of olive-oil stocks fell from ECU 187.5 million 
in 1993 to ECU 120.8 million in 1994. For 1994, depreciation amounted to 
ECU 43.5 million. 
42 
c) Tobacco 
After the sharp decline in quantities in 1992 and 1993, stocks remained 
stable, falling from 13 540 t in 1993 to 13 284 t in 1994. 
Similarly, the total book value of tobacco stocks varied little, falling from 
ECU 4.2 million in 1993 to ECU 4.1 million in 1994. The financial 
depreciation of tobacco stocks totalled ECU 19.9 million in 1994. 
d) Milk products 
Stocks of butter and skimmed-milk powder followed quite different trends. 
The quantity of butter stocks fell sharply, from 160 3651 in 1993 to 98 3311 
in 1994, while there was a significant increase in the case of skimmed-milk 
powder (from 39 7511 in 1993 to 89 4131 in 1994); but those stocks are still 
lower than in the late eighties.lt has to be mentionned that stocks of 
Parmesan and Grana Padano disappeared in 1994; 
These divergent trends resulted in an overall decline in the book value of 
stocks of milk products (1993: ECU 192.9 million; 1994: ECU 157.7 million). 
During 1994 the financial depreciation for butter and skimmed-milk powder 
totalled ECU 120.9 million only. 
e) Beef 
- Quantities in stock (carcase equivalent) fell sharply from to 899 945 tonnes 
on 30 September 1993 to 248 775 tonnes on 30 September 1994; 
- Accordingly, there was a sharp fall in the book value of stocks (1993: 
ECU 514.8 million; 1994: ECU 141.3 million). Financial depreciation for the 
year totalled ECU 23.5 million. 
f) Alcohol 
- Stocks of public alcohol were 10% up on 1993: from 2 839 796 hectolitres 
in 1993 to 3 118 269 in 1994; 
- The book value rose by 12% (1993: ECU 14.7 million; 1994: 
ECU 16.4 million); the financial depreciation during 1994 totalled 
ECU 162 million.

2.4. Revenue of agricultural origin 
Revenue of agricultural origin makes up part of the Community's own resources 
and consists of the following: 
- import levies, which are variable charges to offset the difference between world 
market prices and Community prices; 
- levies imposed under the sugar market organization to limit surpluses in the 
sector by involving producers in financing them.

(2) Including the elimination levy (ECU 84.9 million in 1990, ECU 16.5 million in 1991 and ECU 1.1 million 
in 1992) and the special elimination levy ((•) ECU 19.9 million in 1990, ECU 30.7 million in 1991, 
ECU 0.9 million in 1992 and ECU 1.2 million in 1994. (This levy was not applied in 1993). 
Import levies fell by 10.4%, from ECU 1 029 million in 1993 to ECU 922.5 million 
in 1994. They are imposed mainly on imports of cereals into the Community. The 
volumes of revenue in this sector decreased as a result of the application of 
measures adopted under the agricultural reform, which brought internal prices 
closer to world prices, thereby reducing the incorporation into feedingstuffs of 
cereals imported in the form of cereal substitutes. In addition, the situation of many 
agricultural products on the world market is improving, particularly in the case of 
cereals, sugar and milk products. 
47 
The sugar levies, for their part, were up by 23.9% in relation to 1993, with a total 
of ECU 1 382.1 million in 1994. This substantial increase was mainly due to the 
increase from ECU 25 to ECU 30/tonne of the storage levy for the 1993/94 
marketing year, which was necessary in order to maintain a balance between 
revenue and expenditure on the sugar storage arrangements. In addition, a slight 
drop in internal consumption led to an increase in exports and, accordingly, to an 
increase in the production levies payable by producers. 
The details on storage costs, revenue and the self-financing arrangements in the 
sugar sector are given in Annexes 13, 14 and 15.

3. SUPPLY OF FOOD AID FROM INTERVENTION STOCKS TO THE MOST 
DEPRIVED PERSONS IN THE COMMUNITY 
During the particularly harsh winter of 1986/87, the Community introduced an 
emergency programme to supply foodstuffs to the most deprived persons in the 
Community free of charge for a limited period. 
Thereafter, many appeals were made to the Community to apply this kind of 
measure on a permanent bases. The Commission therefore proposed a legal basis, 
which was adopted by the Council at the end of 1987: Council Regulation (EEC) 
No 3730/87 laying down the general rules for the supply of food from intervention 
stocks to designated organizations for distribution to the most deprived persons in 
the Com m unity (1), and an implementing Regulation which was subsequently 
replaced by Regulation (EEC) No 3149/92(2), last amended by Regulation (EEC) 
No 2826/930. 
Since the first plan based on the new scheme in 1988, the Commission has 
adopted a plan, each year, broken down by Member State, involving products from 
intervention stocks. The appropriations for implementation of these annual plans 
amounted to ECU 100 million in 1988 and 1989, ECU 150 million in 1990 to 1993 
and ECU 175 million in 1994. When allocating the resources among the Member 
States, the Commission takes account of the best estimates regarding the number 
of deprived persons in the Member States concerned, together with the experience 
and uses made during previous years. 
Before drawing up the annual plan, the Commission consults the chief 
organizations familiar with the problems of the deprived. 
The bodies responsible for distributing the products to the most deprived persons 
are designated by the Member State concerned. 
When products included in the plan are not available from intervention stocks in the 
Member State where those products are needed, the Member State may, on the 
terms laid down, obtain supplies from another Member State. 
The foodstuffs distributed are either products which are withdrawn unprocessed 
from intervention storage and then processed and or/packaged or products sourced 
on the market; in the latter case, payment is made to the supplier in products of the 
source category from intervention stocks.

0 The allocation of resources between Member States is made on the basis of the best estimates of the 
numbers in the most deprived persons in each Member State. The figures are then weighted on the basis 
of the actual utilization of allocations in the previous three years for example, the law rate of utilization the 
Netherlands led to their allocation of ECU 3 million in the 1994 plan being reduced to ECU 2.3 million in 
the 1995 plan. 
In assessing the rate of utilization under the plan, account must be taken of the fact that the figures are 
not final, since some expenditive will always be made during the following financial year. 
Furthermore, Greece and Luxembourg were unable to carry out distribution in 1994 for logistical reasons. 
Natural disasters in Greece in October 1994 created additional needs which could not be covered under 
the 1995 plan. By a decision of 23 December 1994, the Commission therefore approved the withdrawal 
from stock of 1000 tonnes of boned beef which had not been utilized.

Title II 
CASH POSITION AND MANAGEMENT OF APPROPRIATIONS 
4. Management of appropriations 
The appropriations for the 1994 financial year break down into three types: 
1. 1994 budget appropriations, 
2. Appropriations carried over non-automatically from the 1993 financial year, 
3. Appropriations carried over automatically from the 1993 financial year. 
4.1. The budget for the 1994 financial year 
4.1.1. Appropriations 
4.1.1.1 The initial budget 
The initial budget for 1994 was adopted in December 1993. Initial appropriations 
totalled ECU 36 465.0 million. 
This includes ECU 15.0 million entered in Chapter BO-40 (provisions for measures 
the legal basis for which has not yet been adopted). It does not comprise the 
ECU 1 000 million allocated to the monetary reserve, which may be used only in 
the event of variations in the ecu/dollar ratio and to cover, if necessary, costs 
arising from currency realignments within the European Monetary System (cf. 
point 4.1.1.4.). 
4.1.1.2. Supplementary and amending budget (SAB) 
The short-term reviews of appropriation requirements for the EAGGF Guarantee 
Section conducted throughout the financial year indicated that appropriations were 
likely to be under-utilized at the end of the year. A PDSAB was proposed to the 
budget authority to reduce appropriations by ECU 1 678 million. The SAB was 
adopted during November. 
4.1.1.3. Transfers of appropriations within the EAGGF Guarantee Section 
In accordance with the conclusions of the European Council of 11 and 
13 February 1988, the Commission, anxious to make adjustments to appropriations 
as far as possible before any chapter is seen to have been used up, proposed 
appropriation transfers from chapter to chapter to ensure that appropriations are 
available before the payment of advances. 
*~*-S3 
Transfers from chapter to chapter were carried out as follows: 
- transfer of ECU 15 million from the BO-40 reserve after adoption of the legal 
basis; 
- transfer of ECU 600.5 million concerning several chapters; 
- transfer of ECU 11.8 million from chapter B1 -37 (clearance of accounts) of an 
equivalent amount received following an "ad hoc" clearance decision to chapter 
B1-18 (other sectors/food aid); 
- transfer of ECU 165.0 million concerning several chapters; 
- transfer of ECU 165.0 million to Chapter B1 -18 (other sectors/food aid) to allow 
the free supply of agricultural products, mainly to countries in the Caucasus and 
Asia. 
However, a transfer of ECU 45.9 million which became necessary following the 
adoption of the SAB could not be submitted in time to the budgetary authority, so 
that part of the expenditure declared by the Member States could not be booked 
under the 1994 financial year. 
4.1.1.4. Transfers to or from the monetary reserve 
The average dollar exchange rate during the financial year was higher than that on 
which the 1994 budget was based, leading to a saving of ECU 250 million. 
Since this amount did not exceed the "franchise" of ECU 400 million, no transfer 
to the monetary reserve was necessary. 
4.1.1.5. The appropriations available 
The appropriations available at the end of the financial year totalled 
ECU 34 787.0 million, not including ECU 1 000 million for the monetary reserve. 
Table 6 shows expenditure against appropriations during the financial year. 
54 
4.1.2. Utilization of appropriations

The following table shows in detail the budget operations covering 1994 budget 
appropriations:

4.1.2.2. Automatic carryovers 
Appropriations to be carried over automatically represent the difference between 
sums committed and charged. For this year they concern ECU 64.3 million 
corresponding to appropriations committed by the Commission for expenditure 
incurred directly by itself and which had not yet been paid at the end of the 
financial year. 
4.1.2.3. Non-automatic carryovers 
The Commission may ask for the carryover of appropriations concerning 
expenditure planned in the previous year's budget which could not be incurred 
before the financial year and for which no appropriation is allocated in the following 
year's budget to cover such expenditure. Since it is unlikely that all of the 
appropriations will have been used at the end of the 1995 financial year, the 
Commission has requested no carryovers of appropriations from the 1994 financial 
to the 1995 financial year. 
55 
4.2. Non-automatic carryovers from 1993 
A request for the carryover of appropriations totalling ECU 510.0 million was made, 
and was granted by the budget authority. 
Since there was no provision in the 1994 budget for this additional expenditure, the 
appropriations still available at the end of 1993 had to be carried over to 1994. 
The appropriations were used as follows: 
in ECU 
1. Appropriations available

4.3. Automatic carry-overs from 1993 
The 1993 appropriations carried over automatically to 1994 cover direct payments 
amounting to ECU 353.8 million, broken down as follows: 
- ECU 315.1 million paid to the Member States, in advance, to make payments 
in 1994 concerning: 
. compensation for non-allocation of milk quotas (SLOM, Reg. (EEC) 
No 2187/93, i.e. ECU 275.1 million), 
. the programme for the restructuring of milk production (Reg. (EEC) 
No 1560/93, i.e. ECU 40 million), 
the details of these payments are given in Annexes 19a and 19b 
- ECU 38.8 million for direct payments committed in 1993 but not yet paid at the 
end of the financial year. 
For details, see point 5.2. and in particular Table 10. 
The following table shows how these carryovers were utilized during the 1994

5. SYSTEM OF ADVANCES AND DIRECT PAYMENTS 
5.1. Advances to the Member States 
5.1.1. System of monthly advances on entry into the accounts 
Council Regulation (EEC) No 2048/88 of 24 June 1988(1) amending Regulation 
(EEC) No 729/70(2) makes the system of monthly advances on entry of expenditure 
in the accounts a permanent feature. Advances are paid to the Member States at 
the beginning of the second month following that in which expenditure is effected 
by the paying agencies. 
Strictly speaking, these are not advances but rather reimbursements of expenditure 
which the Member States have already effected. The term "advance" stresses the 
provisional nature of such payments. Advances are worked out on the basis of 
monthly declarations of expenditure forwarded by the Member States; such 
expenditure is entered definitively in the accounts after verification on the spot in 
the following financial years (cf. TITLE IV on accounts clearance). 
The system of advances covers payments made by the Member States from 
16 October 1993 to 15 October 1994. They involve more than 99% of expenditure 
defrayed by the EAGGF Guarantee Section. For the remainder, the Commission 
itself makes direct payments for a limited number of measures. 
(1) OJNOL185, 15.7.1988, p. 1. 
(2) OJ No L 94, 28.4.1970, p. 13. 58 
5.1.2. Decisions on advance payments taken in respect of 1994 
With regard to the 1994 financial year, the Commission adopted 13 decisions, 12 
of which were routine (annexes 18a and 18b). 
An extraordinary advance to adjust the advances granted to total expenditure 
chargeable to the year was passed in December 1994. 
An 'ad hoc' clearance of accounts decision was necessary to recover part of the 
advances paid to two Member States because of a shortfall of appropriations in 
certain chapters. 
Moreover, with regard to the advances paid at the beginning of December to cover 
the expenditure incurred by the Member States during the first two weeks of 
October 1994, the EAGGF recovered ECU 79.2 million corresponding to 
compensation for the non-allocation of milk quotas ("SLOM") and the programme 
for restructuring milk production advanced during 1993 and not used until 
15 October 1994. 
5.1.3. Reduction of advances 
Payment deadlines were introduced to ensure equal treatment of recipients in all 
the Member States and to avoid delays in payment leading to situations where the 
aid no longer has the desired economic effect. Moreover, the freedom to pay 
according to the administrative convenience of the various paying agencies 
hampers the proper management of budgetary discipline. 
Pursuant to Article 13 of Council Decision 94/729/EC of 31 October 1994 
concerning budgetary discipline^), the EAGGF departments noted at the end of 
the financial year that certain Member States did not always respect the payment 
deadlines fixed in the Community rules for paying aid to recipients and proposed 
that the Commission reduce the advances for 1994 on account of late payment by 
ECU 19.8 million. This reduction was decided by the Commission at the same time 
as the advances for October expenditure.

5.2.1. Direct payments for certain agricultural measures 
In certain cases the Commission makes direct payments to operators in connection 
with certain schemes that are not conventional market measures but are intended 
to increase the scope for disposal of products, in particular olive oil, fibre flax and 
nuts and to finance rural development and measures to combat fraud. 
Table 10 gives details of direct payments. 
Some of these measures are financed by withholding a proportion of the aid to be 
paid to producers. Annex 20 gives an overall picture of sums withheld in relation 
to expenditure. 
5.2.2. Direct payments for the free supply of agricultural products 
The Commission also made direct payments for the supply of agricultural products 
to countries in the Caucasus and central Asia and to Moldova.

TITLE III 
FRAUD PREVENTION^ 
6.1 General 
This Title deals with the most important activities and factors in the context of the 
prevention of fraud against the EAGGF in 1994. It is a matter which closely 
concerns the European citizen, since the EAGGF's resources come from tax­
payers* money. Proper management and systematic and effective checks are 
therefore necessary. 
The responsibility for combating fraud affecting the EAGGF falls firstly on the 
Member States, whose task is to apply the Community regulations and to take all 
measures necessary to ensure that operations financed by the EAGGF Guarantee 
Section are implemented in accordance with the rules(2). To that end the Member 
States have suitable national departments for conducting verifications and 
investigations. 
In this area the Commission's role is essentially to encourage, coordinate and 
monitor the control work of the Member States and to urge the latter to conduct the 
relevant investigations, conducting investigations itself where necessary. 
The Commission has intensified its efforts to improve the situation regarding 
recoveries, in particular by improving cooperation with, and the motivation of, the 
Member States and, in duty substantiated cases, by making corrections when the 
accounts are cleared. 
Using the legal instruments at its disposal, independently of checks carried out for 
the purposes of the clearance of accounts, the Commission can request the 
Member States to carry out investigations, in which it may participate, carry out 
checks itself, or organize checks where several Member States are concerned or 
where problems arise in a particular sector. 
There are also arrangements for the exchange of information between the Member 
States and with the Commission to step up the effectiveness of the fight against 
fraud. 
In 1994 the Commission continued and stepped up its activities with regard to the 
prevention of fraud and irregularities involving EAGGF funds. This work 
concentrated on three main objectives: 
the application of legislative provisions on controls and improvements to the 
regulations and methodology; 
(1) Certain items under this Title also appear in the 1994 annual report on the fight against 
fraud ("Protecting the financial interests ^ the Community: The fight against fraud"). The 
points enlarged upon in that report are only outlined in brief in this title. 
(2) Article 8 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 729/70, OJ No L 94, 28.4.1970 
conducting of investigations and special checks, with a greater number of 
officials in the field; 
setting up and operation of specific control mechanisms and application of 
suitable, effective verification techniques and methods. 
6.2. Application of control measures and improvements to the rules 
6.2.1. Integrated administration and control system as part of the reform of the CAP 
With the reform of the CAP, it was necessary to set up a totally different set of 
arrangements for management and control in order to find suitable solutions, 
particularly with regard to direct area-based aid and animal premiums. 
Council Regulation (EEC) No 3508/92 of 27 November 1992 establishing an 
integrated administration and control system for certain Community aid schemes(1) 
essentially provides for: 
- a computerized database, 
- an alphanumeric identification system for agricultural parcels, 
- a system for the identification and registration of animals(2), 
- aid applications, 
- an integrated control system (administrative checks, on-the-spot checks and, 
where appropriate, verification by aerial or satellite remote sensing). 
By collating all the information relating to areas, animals and producers available 
to it, the control authority is in a position to carry out a very detailed administrative 
check. This procedure should make it possible to detect far more irregularities or 
anomalies at the aid application stage and to reduce the number of elements that 
have to be checked on-the-spot. Computerizing these administrative checks makes 
for greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness. 
Regulation (EEC) No 3508/92 provides for the integrated system to apply as from 
1 February 1993 with the exception of the alphanumeric identification system for 
agricultural parcels and the computerized database, which will be applicable as 
from 1 January 1996. 
This Regulation also provides for the Community to contribute towards the 
expenditure incurred in setting up the integrated system over four years from 1992 
and over three years from the 1 January 1995 for the new Member States. 
(1) OJ No L 355, 5.12.1992. w 
(2) In accordance with Articles 4, 5, 6 and 8 of Council Directive 92/102/EEC of 
27 November 1992 (OJ No L 355, 5.12.1992). 
In 1994 Commission staff carried out several visits to all the Member States in 
order to study the organization of the introduction of the system and the 
administrative and on-the-spot checks. Particular attention was given to the 
introduction of systems for identifying agricultural parcels and the application of 
Directive 92/102 EEC concerning the identification and registration of livestock. 
The Commission presented a report to the Council (COM(94) 286) on Community 
part-financing. In view of the major work still to be done, and because the 
transitional period for setting up the integrated system expires at the end of 1995, 
the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission, amended Regulation 
(EEC) No 3508/92 to extend the part-financing scheme to the end of 1995(1). 
6.2.2. Identification and registration of animals 
Directive 92/102/EEC of 27 January 1992 provides that the Council is to undertake 
a review of the Directive before the end of 1996 with a view to defining a 
harmonized Community system of electronic identification and to taking a decision 
on its introduction in the light of progress achieved in this area by the International 
Organization for Standards (ISO). 
Accordingly, the Commission decided to contribute towards the financing of a 
project developed by three research institutes for a large-scale trial involving the 
electronic identification of livestock (cattle, sheep and goats), to see if the 
generalized application of such an identification system could be achieved for all 
livestock qualifying for Community premiums paid in respect of individual animals. 
The project has been completed and the final results were presented on 
13 December 1994. These results were sufficiently positive for the Commission to 
plan to develop this type of identification on a larger scale. 
6.2.3. Determination of the sex of boned beef 
The Commission's staff took an interest in the possibilities offered by laboratory 
tests whereby the sex of boned beef (fresh or frozen) can be determined. Such 
tests could clearly be useful in checks on both intervention aid and export refunds. 
Delegations from those Member States which were interested were invited to take 
part in the procedure and expressed an interest in its development. The method 
and its applications are currently being studied by experts of the Veterinary 
Committee. 
65 
(1) Regulation (EC) No 3233/94 of 20 December 1994. OJ No L 338, 28.12.1994, p. 13. 
6.2.4. Reinforcing monitoring (Regulation (EEC) No 307/91) 
Regulation (EEC) No 307/91 provides for the Community to part-finance, for a 
limited period and up to an annual maximum of ECU 20 million, expenditure 
incurred by the Member States to reinforce the monitoring of certain expenditure 
chargeable to the EAGGF Guarantee Section in the field of exports of agricultural 
products and products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex II to 
the Treaty (Article 1 ) as well as in connection with certain intervention measures 
(Article 2). 
The expenditure claimed by the Member States in 1993 amounted to 
ECU 10.370 million, i.e. a take-up rate of 52% in relation to the total available 
amount. 
The take-up rate on the Community appropriations varied from Member State to 
Member State. For Denmark, Germany and France it was fairly high (between 60 
and 80% of the allocated appropriations). Spain, Ireland and Portugal utilized 
about 50% of the available funds, while Belgium, Greece, Italy and the United 
Kingdom used between 11% and 16% of the total amount made available to them. 
Only the Netherlands absorbed the entire financial allocation and were granted 
additional funding, in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 1116/94 
of 16 May 1994. 
Most of the expenditure declared by the Member States in 1993 (see table in 
annex), was for the remuneration of additional staff (67% of the total eligible 
amount). In total, 508 officials were declared (most of whom were redeployed, not 
newly recruited). 
Training costs remained very low (2%) and mainly concerned the organization of 
courses on methods for checking agricultural products. 
Expenditure on equipment (18% of total eligible expenditure) mainly went towards 
the purchase of micro-computers and vehicles. 
Lastly, requests for the financing of laboratory analyses (in the context of checks 
on exports) were rather high for Denmark, Greece, Ireland and Portugal. 
In the light of the experience gained in the first three years of application of the 
Regulation, on 16 May 1994 the Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 1116/94 
(mentioned above) amending Regulation (EEC) No 967/91. This new Regulation 
provides, in particular, that the Member States may transfer unused Community 
financing from one article to another within the overall financial allocation granted 
them and grants access also to the funds unused by other Member States. These 
new provisions meet the wishes of certain Member States at the same time as 
ensuring better management of Community funds. 
66 
Expenditure forecasts for 1994, drawn up on the basis of the Member States' 
declarations, amount to ECU 7.2 million, or 36% of the available funds. Definitive 
utilization will not be known until after 15 May 1995, when the Member States will 
present the Commission their statements of actual expenditure. 
6.2.5. Physical checks on exports of agricultural products 
Regulation (EEC) No 386/90(1) provides that physical checks carried out when 
agricultural products are exported must cover a representative sample of at least 
5% of export declarations in respect of which applications are submitted for 
refunds or other amounts linked to export operations. 
In order to improve monitoring conditions and acting on a proposal from the 
Commission, the Council adopted Regulation (EC) No 163/94(2) of 
24 January 1994, which provides for the 5% inspection rate to cover all agricultural 
product sectors insofar as a selection system is applied based on a risk analysis 
carried out in accordance with criteria to be laid down in accordance with a 
procedure laid down by the Commission. However, a minimum rate of 2% remains 
compulsory per product sector. In addition, the new rules include the principle of 
physical checks by the office of exit to mitigate the risk of substitution. 
Pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 163/94, the Directorate-General for Agriculture 
prepared and the Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 3122/94 laying down 
criteria for risk analysis as regards agricultural products receiving refunds(3). This 
Regulation lays down a certain number of criteria to assist in the selection of 
export declarations which should be the subject of a physical check. The purpose 
of this risk analysis is to target physical checks on those goods, natural or legal 
persons and sectors presenting the greatest risk. In this way checks can be more 
effective in preventing fraud. 
6.2.6. Operators who present a risk ("black list") 
As part of the measures to protect Community financial interests, the Commission 
has proposed to the Council a Regulation to introduce a system of identification 
and communication between the competent national authorities concerning 
operators who do not provide the necessary guarantees, in particular on account 
of fraud committed, who would then be subject to appropriate preventive measures 
(more stringent checks, suspension of payment of aid, debarring from subsequent 
participation in Community aid schemes).

at the time of export of agricultural products receiving refunds or other amounts.

(2) OJNOL24, 29.1.1994, p. 2 67 
(3) OJ No L 330, 21.12.1994, p. 31. 
On 6 December 1994 an agreement in principle was reached in the Council 
concerning this Regulation, subject to the opinion of, and any amendments 
proposed by, Parliament. The detailed rules to be adopted by the Commission 
have already been discussed by the Member States in the EAGGF Committee. 
However, at its session of February 1995 the European Parliament adopted a 
number of amendments (mainly concerning the definition of irregularity within the 
meaning of the Regulation in question and a strengthening of the role to be played 
by the Commission in its practical application) so that the Commission presented 
to the Council an amended proposal taking account of the amendments requested 
by Parliament. 
6.2.7. Strengthening the provisions on export refunds 
During 1994 important legislative measures were adopted to strengthen and 
standardize the administrative steps to be taken following wrongful payment of 
export refunds (or attempts to defraud). 
Regulation (EC) No 2945/94 amends Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87, Article 11 of 
which now provides for: 
- the obligation to reimburse the amount of a wrongfully paid refund increased 
by either 50% or 200% (if it is established that the application intentionally 
supplied false information); 
- the principle that the subrogation of the right to payment of the refund entails 
joint and several responsibility of the assignor and the assignee with regard to 
the repayment of unduly paid refunds (however, the assignee does not have 
to pay the penalty increase referred to above); 
- the new arrangements also concern the interest due and the possibility for 
bodies to obtain reimbursement by offsetting the undue refunds against refunds 
still to be paid. 
6.2.8. Strengthening of surveillance in the cereals sector 
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1755/94(1), which amends Article 9 of 
Regulation (EC) No 891/89(2), introduces additional surveillance measures for 
exports in the cereals and rice sectors, as follows: 
- a copy of the contract must be attached to export licence applications involving 
advance fixing of the refund. The Member State concerned must inform the 
Commission of the quantities concerned on the day on which the application 
is lodged; 
- the rights arising from the licence are not transferable; 
68 
(1) OJNOL183, 18.7.1994. 
(2) OJ No L 94, 7.4.1989. 
- if the purchaser-importer fails to fulfil the contract, the Community exporter may 
export to another destination, but only with the refunds applicable to other third 
countries on the date of the initial application. 
6.3. Investigations 
The Commission can conduct the controls it considers useful, including 
on-the-spot checks(1), or have such checks carried out by the national authorities, 
possibly with the participation of Commission officials?). It may also ask for 
information from the Member States concerned and carry out inspection visits in 
this connection. 
This Chapter covers a series of investigations in which the Commission 
participated actively. Commission officials conducted several on-the-spot checks, 
in conjunction with the Member States. 
These investigations in 1994 were particularly fruitful. They could have been more 
numerous and the results much more beneficial if the number of officials allocated 
to the EAGGF for this task had been greater. However, thanks to the efforts of a 
small number of officials and to the effective methods used, a significant number 
of investigations were carried out and many cases of fraud covering a substantial 
amount detected. 
6.3.1. New cases 
By way of an example, the following investigations are worth quoting: 
Cereals 
(a) Intervention stocks 
The Commission felt (risk analysis) that the second consecutive reduction 
in the intervention prices for cereals as a result of the reform of the CAP in 
the field of storage continued to pose a high risk of frauds, involving in 
particular selling into intervention before the new marketing year cereals 
harvested at the beginning of 1993/94 or replacing public stocks with 
privately-owned cereals. 
Like last year, it was agreed firstly with all the Member States that suitable 
checks should be conducted by the national authorities on the basis of a 
programme drawn up in conjunction with the Commission. 
(1) Council Regulation (EEC) No 729/70, OJ No L 94, 28.4.1970. 
(2) Council Regulation (EEC) No 595/91, OJ No L 67, 14.3.1992. 
Following an examination of data forwarded, the Commission organized 
inspection visits to France and Germany in June and July 1994 to verify the 
actual existence of intervention stocks. 
It was noted in both Member States that the stocks registered by the 
intervention agencies were present. In a small number of cases the 
calculation of volumes gave results below the tolerance provided for in the 
Community rules. Verifications of these cases are underway. 
Last year's investigation in France revealed shortcomings in the 
management and control of intervention stocks. This situation continues in 
many cases. Financial corrections are therefore being contemplated. In 
Germany, the results of the investigation have prompted the Commission 
departments to propose improvements to the central system for the updating 
of intervention stock figures. 
In Italy, where on-the-spot inspections in Calabria, Sicily and Puglia in 1993 
revealed major fraud, some attempts were made in 1994 to improve the 
management and control arrangements. Greece also supplemented the 
checks it had commenced with the EAGGF, thereby revealing certain cases 
of fraud. 
(b) Prefinancing 
During this investigation in the cereals sector, verifications were carried out 
to check the administration and control arrangements set up in Germany 
and France for the prefinancing of export refunds. Shortcomings, many of 
which were serious, were found in France in particular. The EAGGF will take 
the necessary steps to improve the situation. 
At the same time, the EAGGF asked the Member States concerned to 
introduce the necessary arrangements to substantially improve the 
management of cereals under customs supervision in the context of the 
prefinancing of refunds. 
Special hill premium and premium for the maintenance of suckler cow herds 
In the light of information received by the EAGGF staff and certain 
anomalies found in dossiers examined by them, an inspection visit was 
carried out in Haute-Corse on 9 to 16 September 1994 concerning the 
application of the rules governing the special hill premium and the premium 
for the maintenance of suckler cow herds. It was also necessary to ascertain 
whether there was a link between these premiums and forest fires. 
70 
The investigation uncovered instances of fraud. The Member State 
concerned must take concrete action against the beneficiaries identified by 
the EAGGF who deliberately committed the most flagrant irregularities, which 
can for the most part be explained by the serious shortcomings in the 
management and control arrangements set up at local level. 
* The inspection revealed serious problems in the management of the 
special hill premium, with the following financial consequences: 
- for 1993, the suspension of advances and payment of aid until the 
individual dossiers have been regularized, 
- for 1994, suspension of advances and payment of aid until the Member 
State concerned has adopted the administrative measures needed to 
ensure proper application of Community rules. 
* In view of the shortcomings found in the administration and control carried 
out by the Member State in connection with the suckler cow premium, the 
EAGGF's staff will apply a financial correction (flat-rate reduction) on the 
1994 expenditure of Special hill premium and premium for the 
maintenance of suckler cow herds. 
For 1995, the payment of premiums is suspended and will remain so until 
the French authorities have set up appropriate management and control 
arrangements. 
With regard to the connection between premiums granted and forest fires, 
it is recommended that the grant of suckler cows be subject to stringent 
conditions regarding protection of the environment. 
Exports of olive oil to third countries 
On the basis of information received during an investigation in the Lebanon 
concerning olive oil, it would appear that similar fraud has taken place in other 
undertakings. It was established during an investigation that false declarations were 
made concerning exports of olive oil during 1992 and 1993. Not only was the 
content of the consignment falsely declared (soya oil fraud) but the quantities were 
also wrongly described. 
The amount granted in respect of these exports totals ECU 3 million, to which must 
be added the consumption aid. 
71 
Exports of raw tobacco 
During 1994 several inspection visits were made to Greece(3) and ltaly(1) to 
ascertain (in agreement with the national inspection services) whether tobacco 
exported to Albania and Bulgaria in particular was entitled to the refund and, where 
applicable, to the processing premium. The Commission staff expect to reach a 
conclusion at the end of 1995. 
These inspections are an integral part of the tobacco investigation file opened by 
the EAGGF in 1992. The file goes back as far as 1987. Since the accounts 
clearance for 1989 and before had already been completed before the investigation 
was opened, the Member States were asked to initiate investigations under their 
national laws (Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 595/91). With regard to 1990 and 
after, the EAGGF invoked Article 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 so as to carry 
out its own investigations. However, irrespective of the legal basis invoked, 
pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 the Member States remain 
responsible for suppressing any fraud or irregularity they find. 
Taking account of the evidence which the EAGGF already had (which has also 
been communicated to the Member States concerned), certain financial 
consequences were already drawn during the 1990 and 1991 clearance exercises. 
However, these corrections were subject to a reservation pending the final results 
of the national investigations underway. 
So far, the results of thèse national investigations have been minimal, or even 
non-existent: 
- Italy has indicated that the results of investigations carried out in 
26 undertakings will be communicated shortly. In addition, legal proceedings 
have already been commenced against several persons involved in trafficking 
involving fictitious exports to Bulgaria (in this case, an appeal has been made 
to the Court of Cassation). 
- The situation in Greece is very serious. Greece entrusted the investigation to 
a national committee comprising all the national departments concerned 
(Agriculture, DIDAGEP, EOK, Finance, Customs). 
This Committee was set up on 19 May 1994, more than a year after the 
EAGGF asked Greece to open an investigation. No concrete results have yet 
been achieved. 
72 
These two Member States have been informed that 19 May 1995 is the 
deadline by which definitive conclusions must be communicated to the EAGGF. 
Other investigations concerning tobacco were also launched in 1994. The main 
ones concern the export of 66 containers (approx. 1 140 tonnes of tobacco) from 
several Italian exporters which, after staying in the port of Constansa were rejected 
by the Romanian authorities. Examination of their contents revealed waste 
products unsuitable for any economic use. The export refund and the processing 
premium concerned amount to ECU 2.5 million. 
Withdrawal of peaches 
Two visits were made to Greece and Italy regarding withdrawals of peaches and 
nectarines. 
Verifications were carried out to ascertain whether producers' organizations comply 
with the terms of the Council Regulation when withdrawing peaches from the 
market. In Greece it was found that none of these organizations had an 
intervention fund and that the procedures for the approval of producers' 
organizations do not guarantee that those organizations are capable of playing the 
role assigned them by the rules. It was also found that the withdrawal coefficients 
were being incorrectly applied. Clearance of accounts corrections have been 
proposed in the light of these findings. 
In the case of Italy, the inspection report shows that the Italian Ministry of 
Agriculture has not really checked the rules on the intervention fund and the 
marketing rules laid down by the producers' associations. As a result the 
withdrawal coefficients are incorrectly applied and financial corrections might 
result. 
Investigation concerning the quality and quantity of olive oil in intervention storage 
in Spain 
Just as investigations were held concerning the quality of olive oil stocks in Italy 
(the results can be found in the 23rd Financial Report, on page 76, and the action 
taken as a result is described on page 78 of this Report), during the week from 18 
to 23 April 1994 the EAGGF staff held an investigation concerning the quantity and 
quality of olive oil from the 1992/93 marketing year held in intervention storage in 
Spain. 
73 
102 samples representing 69 367 tonnes of olive oil from 1992/93 were taken from 
the 11 storage centres visited. 
The samples were sent to an Italian laboratory, which carried out all the necessary 
analyses. 
The results show that 38 253 899 kg of olive oil declared as "extra virgin" must be 
down-graded to "virgin" quality exclusively on the basis of the organoleptic test; 
478 950 kg were excluded from intervention for having a trichloroethylene content 
higher than the limit laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91. 
The results were forwarded to the Member State in November 1994. 
Exports of wine to Croatia 
According to information received, considerable quantities of wine exported from 
Spain to Croatia was diverted to Germany. 
During an inspection visit of the EAGGF staff to Croatia in November 1994 it was 
found that concentrated grape must from Spain had been added to Croatian wine 
which was subsequently exported to Germany. 
It was also noted that the grape must in question was sent to Croatia under 
temporary import arrangements. The criteria laid down in Article 18 of Regulation 
(EEC) No 3665/87 for the payment of differentiated refunds were therefore not 
complied with. The temporary import arrangements in question area also applied 
to tobacco. 
The Spanish authorities were asked to recover the wrongly paid refunds. In 
addition, there is a general problem regarding export procedures in Spain. The 
other Member States were also informed. 
Thus the temporary import arrangements, whereby goods may be imported at a 
very reduced levy, are open to abuse and the risk of potential fraud is particularly 
high. 
74 
Exports of concentrated grape must 
The case in question came to light during the second half of 1993, when the Dutch 
authorities noted that large quantities of concentrated grape must had transited via 
Rotterdam. Investigations revealed that abnormally large quantities of this product 
had been being exported from Spain since November 1991 and serious doubts 
arose as to whether the quantities shipped actually remained in Sweden. 
The refunds wrongfully received by Spanish undertakings for the part of the 
exports diverted from Sweden to the United States amount to about 
ECU 18 million. 
During an inspection visit to Sweden in March 1994 the books and other 
supporting documents of three of the main Swedish importers were scrutinized, 
and staff were questioned. 
It was found that all the quantities of the product in question, supposedly imported 
into Sweden for local consumption, had been immediately redispatched to the 
United States and Canada, countries for which no export refunds are paid. 
It is quite clear that the Spanish exporters are still trying to export the product in 
question to the United States and Canada. The Spanish authorities have already 
determined that the fraud involves Ptas 2 925 million (18 ECU million) and the 
investigations have reached their closing stages. The procedure for recovering 
other amounts implicated in this case has not yet been commenced. 
The payment of refunds for Sweden were suspended as soon as the fraud was 
discovered. Traffic continued via Norway, for which refunds were also applied.. As 
a result of this fraudulent practice, it has been decided to completely abolish 
refunds for concentrated grape must. 
Exports of cheese, meat and milk products from Denmark and Germany 
reimported into Greece 
Following requests by the Greek authorities for the verification of a number of T2L 
certificates, the German and Danish authorities discovered these documents to be 
forged. 
75 
After investigations, it was found that these T2L import licences corresponded to 
German and Danish exports to the Lebanon, Jordan and Bulgaria for which 
substantial refunds had been paid. The proofs of arrival were also found to be 
forgeries and the goods had actually entered Greece under forged T2L certificates. 
The notified fraud involves DM 3.4 million and Dkr 15.4 million. Steps have been 
taken to initiate legal action in Greece. Moreover, measures have been taken to 
develop a coordinated action plan to bring these fraudulent practices to an end. 
Exports of beef to Egypt, refusal of certain Quantities 
The Egyptian authorities have rejected certain parts of consignments of beef 
exported from the Community, for which full refunds have been paid. 
The meat in question comes from the Netherlands, France, Ireland, Germany, Italy 
and Belgium. 
During an investigation on the spot it was found that the quantities involved totalled 
258118 boxes at a net weight of 6 319.324 tonnes, from 48 different 
consignments between 1991 and September 1993. 
The export operations from which these rejects came have been traced. Some of 
the reasons for the refusals have been discovered (poor health and veterinary 
status, high bacteria counts, etc.). 
Recovery procedures are underway. 
6.3.2. Old cases 
In 1994 there were significant developments as regards the files opened in earlier 
years and presented in the 1993 Financial Report on the EAGGF Guarantee 
Section. 
These files can be classified as follows: 
76 
(a) Cases which resulted in a financial adjustment under the 1991 accounts 
clearance operation 
- Premium for the abandonment of winegrowing areas 
corrections: Italy: LIT 7 314 669 876 
Greece: DRA 7333 908. 
- Exports of meat to the Lebanon and the United Arab Emirates 
corrections: the Netherlands: HFL 1 091 617 
Germany: DM 997 814. 
- Exports of livestock on the hoof to the Near and Middle East and North 
Africa - the IMEX case: country involved: Germany - correction: 
DM 56 692 508. 
- Livestock exports to Poland claimed to be pure-bred breeding animals 
corrections: Germany: DM 54 275 090 
Netherlands: HFL 550 150. 
- Beef exports to Zimbabwe: country involved: Germany; 
correction: DM 518 181. 
- Exports of beef as food aid. This case was the subject of an 'ad hoc' 
clearance decision: Decision 94/28/EC. The Decision was contested by 
the Member State concerned (Italy) before the European Court of Justice 
(Case 198/94). 
(b) Other files 
- Intervention stocks of durum wheat 
Italy: the irregularities noted in 1993 resulted in a correction to the 
advances paid to the Member State of ECU 62.4 million. A further flat-
rate correction of 10% was applied to overall expenditure in the sector for 
the 1991 financial year and the same correction is proposed for 1992. 
All the cases of irregularities have also been communicated in the 
context of Articles 3 and 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 595/91 and the 
EAGGF is closely monitoring the Member States in their recovery of 
sums from operators. 
77 
France: the cases found during the 1993 EAGGF investigation have been 
communicated in the context of Articles 3 and 5 of Regulation (EEC) 
No 595/91 and the Member States have recovered sums from operators. 
Following this investigation, other cases have been discovered by the 
Member State and the sums in question recovered. In all, nine cases 
have been communicated, accounting for a total of ECU 4 150 000, fully 
recovered from the operators. 
Greece: All the cases noted in 1993 have been communicated by the 
Member State, together with other cases it has discovered, in the context 
of Articles 3 and 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 595/91. The checks were 
extended to quality problems and corrections will be made under the 
1993 accounts clearance. 
- Durum wheat - prefinancing of refunds: 
since the fraud was discovered, Italy has been unable to rectify the 
financial situation. Only 16% of the sum to be reimbursed has been 
returned to the EAGGF. Taking account of the fact that the damage was 
mainly caused by incorrect application of the refund prefinancing 
arrangements and that there is no hope of the EAGGF being rapidly 
repaid, preparations are being made to include this file in an accounts 
clearance decision to be adopted concerning 1992. 
- Olive oil in intervention: 
the results of the analyses earned out on samples taken in Italy show 
that 13 016 tonnes are not eligible for intervention and must therefore be 
excluded. These findings are currently being verified by the Italian 
authorities and a further, definitive analysis will be carried out on the 
samples held by the EAGGF staff. 
- False declaration of type and destination in olive oil exports: 
unduly paid refunds amounting to ECU 4 million. In addition, ECU 4.7 
million of olive oil consumption aid must be recovered. Taking account 
of the findings of the EAGGF staff during the physical check on departure 
from Greece (customs and State laboratory), it is planned to include this 
case in a future accounts clearance operation. 
78 
- Exports of beef - use of false documents: 
beef exported from Germany destined for the Lebanon was diverted to 
Turkey. Wrongfully paid refunds amounting to ECU 4 million were 
recovered. 
- Reimport of exported beef into the Community: 
exports of beef to certain third countries although the T1 documents were 
never cleared and the goods in question were placed for consumption on 
the Community market. The Belgian authorities have commenced 
procedures to recover the wrongfully paid refunds, amounting to 
ECU 1.3 million. 
Cotton 
During an investigation carried out in Greece in 1992 by Commission 
officials in collaboration with the Greek authorities, a certain number of 
irregularities were found to have been committed by operators (ginning 
undertakings, intermediaries, producers) and shortcomings were found in 
the Greek control arrangements. 
The Greek authorities had to carry out additional checks to determine the 
scale of the irregularities. They failed to carry out those checks and 
Greece's failure to cooperate was noted accordingly. 
For these reasons, at the end of 1994 the Commission decided to apply an 
appropriate correction in the context of the clearance of accounts. This 
correction was set at 25% of the aid granted for 1991. 
This figure will be lowered if controls and cooperation are found to have 
improved in 1995. 
In this context, by common agreement a joint working party of the 
Commission and the Greek authorities has been set up with a view to 
improving the Greek inspection arrangements. The working party met in 
1994. Regular meetings will be held each quarter and will be followed by 
visits to the production zones to evaluate the progress made. A report will 
be drawn up at the end of 1995. 
79 
6.4. Cases of fraud and irregularities reported 
Fraud and irregularities detected by the Member States are reported quarterly to 
the Commission under Articles 3 and 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 595/91. Details of 
cases reported in 1994 broken down by sector are given in Annex 21. 
Annex 22 shows the trend of Member States' reports of cases of fraud and 
irregularities established up to and including 1994 and the situation regarding the 
recovery of amounts unduly paid. 
For 1994 the breakdown by Member State of the number of cases of irregularities 
amounting to ECU 4 000 or more and the financial implications for EAGGF 
Guarantee Section funds was as follows:

In ECU million at the most recent rate available. 
It will be noted that: 
- the cases reported by the Member States under Regulation 595/91 also include 
the many cases uncovered by the EAGGF staff during their investigations; 
- the Member States are still very reluctant to report the cases of fraud found by 
their inspectors and are late in reporting them (which completely neutralizes 
any motivation the other might have to prevent fraud). 
For the four quarters of 1994, 1 610 cases totalling ECU 416.8 million were 
reported. This represents an increase on 1993, of 24% in the number of cases (up 
from 1 298) and 70% in the amount involved (previously ECU 248.3 million). A 
comparison between 1994 and 1992 (1 030 cases amounting to ECU 118 million) 
shows an increase of 56% in the number of cases and 254% in the amount 
involved. 
80 
This considerable increase in the number of cases reported has only been 
achieved thanks to the work of the Member State and the on-the-spot inquiries and 
audits carried out by unit G.4 of the EAGGF. 
The major sectors in terms of the number of cases found and the size of the sums 
involved are: 
- Cereals 
For the second year running, this was the sector where the best results were 
achieved: 201 cases totalling ECU 221.9 million (ECU 75.6 million more than 
the previous year). Italy reported the most serious cases: 22 cases involving 
ECU 115.7 million, followed by Spain, with 10 cases involving ECU 42.7 million 
and France with 59 cases involving 10 million. Portugal reported 53 cases but 
the sums involved were minimal. 
- Beef and veal 
Another high-risk sector: 135 cases were reported, involving ECU 65.2 million 
(ECU 44.2 million up on the previous year). The major cases were reported by 
Italy, with 7 cases involving ECU 39.2 million and Germany with 31 cases 
involving ECU 17 million. 
- Oils and fats 
208 cases were reported, involving ECU 62.2 million. The major cases were 
reported by Italy, with 143 cases involving ECU 60.7 million. 
- Significant results were obtained thanks to the integrated administration and 
control system, although the system has only recently become operational. 
Under these arrangements 241 cases were reported involving ECU 3.3 million. 
6.5. Recovery of amounts unduly paid 
The situation regarding the recovery of amounts unduly paid in the agricultural 
sector continued to improve in 1994. ECU 79.1 million were recovered, i.e. 22% 
of the amounts involved. 
The best results were achieved by Italy with the recovery of ECU 68.1, Germany, 
with ECU 3.3 million, and the United Kingdom, with ECU 2.2 million. 
81 
Of the 9 787 cases of irregularities entered in the "lrene-3" data base, 6 310 cases 
had been completed at the end of 1994, i.e. 64% of all cases. 1 100 more cases 
were completed than during the previous year. These also included cases reported 
during earlier years. In particular, of the 1 610 cases reported in 1994, 554 were 
completed (34% of the total). 
To have a better idea of the efforts made during recent years to improve the 
recovery rate, the totals at the end of each of the last four years must be 
compared. 
All regularities reported by Amouts recovered Percentage 
the Member States since recovered 
reporting began 
end 1991 ECU 762,3 million ECU 80,1 million 10,5 
end 1992 ECU 914,7 million ECU 94,5 million 10,3 
end 1993 ECU 1.124,3 million ECU 158,1 million 14,1 
end 1994 ECU 1.458,1 million ECU 342,2 million 22,1 
The recovery rate more than doubled between 1991 and 1994. This has been 
achieved through the efforts of the EAGGF's staff to assist and motivate Member 
States to recover sums (particularly during discussions in the Irregularities 
Committee) and, above all, following the substantial corrections made in the 
context of the clearance of accounts. In the latter case, losses are attributed to the 
negligence of the Member State which allowed the irregularity to happen or slowed 
down the recovery procedure. 
The fact that the recovery rate is not greater can be explained by: 
- the size of the sums in question (all possible means are used by the 
defrauders with such sums at stake); 
- the slowness of legal proceedings in the different Member States. 
82 
6.6. EAGGF Irregularities and Mutual Assistance Group meetings 
These meetings are held pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 595/91, 
under the chairmanship of an EAGGF representative. They bring together 
Commission officials and Member States' representatives responsible for control 
and investigations. Three plenary meetings were held in 1994 at which procedures 
for the notification of irregularities were discussed together with many alleged or 
established irregularity cases, and the action to be taken in each case was 
considered. 
At meetings of the Group: 
- major cases of fraud can be discussed with the Member States and 
discussions held on experience gained in various sectors; 
- an exchange of views can take place on the application of the Community rules 
and Member States' authorities can be alerted to new methods and techniques 
(risk analysis, remote sensing, etc.); 
- all fraud cases reported can be discussed and assessed with a view to the risk 
analysis to be completed by the individual Member States. 
6.7. Specific control arrangements 
6.7.1. Control agencies for olive oil 
Pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2262/84(1) and Commission Regulation 
(EEC) No 27/85(2), control agencies for olive oil were set up in the main producer 
Member States: Italy, Greece, Spain and Portugal (see 18th Financial Report on 
the EAGGF, pp. 53, 54). 
The main changes to the operation of the agencies in 1994 arise from the changes 
to the support policy in this sector. Consumption aid has been cut drastically and 
production aid strengthened, with strengthened checks on the latter necessary as 
a result. 
83 
(1) OJNoL208, 3.8.1984. 
(2) OJ No L 4, 5.1.1985. 
The need to reinforce checks on production aid was first communicated to the 
agencies at the time of the comments on the 1994/95 activity programme. It 
includes strengthening the verification of the destination of the oil produced as 
proof of the existence of the quantities declared in the aid application. 
These changes will increase the effectiveness of the crossed checks, which have 
in recent years been confirmed as the most effective. 
The four agencies carried out their control tasks during the 1993/94 marketing year 
in accordance with the forecasts in the activity programmes and the forward 
estimates approved by the Member States' authorities and the Commission. 
In Italy, during the 1993/94 marketing year the agency checked 1 591 producers, 
including 112 field checks, 838 mills, 14 producers' associations and the 
637 packaging undertakings. 
As a result of these checks the agency has proposed the withdrawal of approval 
from 60 mills, six producers' associations and 43 packaging undertakings. The aid 
applications of 26 producers have been contested. 
Most of the cases have been notified to the judicial authority and/or other control 
authorities. 
In Greece, during the 1993/94 marketing year, the agency carried out 709 checks 
on the 2 766 mills in operation and proposed 14 withdrawals of approval and 
33 fines. The checks on associations did not give rise to any proposals for 
penalties. 2 411 producers were checked. The 919 checks on 235 packaging 
undertakings resulted in the quantities declared being challenged in 164 cases. 
In Portugal, for the 1993/94 marketing year, the agency carried out checks on 856 
producers, 396 of whom were found wanting. The number of approved mills rose 
to 1 650, of which the agency inspected 352 and proposed 66 withdrawals of 
approval. The agency checked 8 of the 29 existing producers' associations. 
The 56 inspections carried out at packaging plants which had submitted aid 
applications found no shortcomings. With regard to quality, three cases of 
infringement were noted by the national authorities. 
84 
In Spain, for the 1993/94 marketing year the agency checked 1 080 mills, two 
unions and 40 producers' organizations, 1 163 producers and 465 packaging 
plants. It proposed withdrawal of approval from seven producers' organizations, 
62 mills and 45 packaging plants. 
6.7.2. Tobacco control agencies 
Regulation (EEC) No 85/93 provided for the creation in Italy and Greece, by 
30 April 1993, of two autonomous control agencies in the tobacco sector, to be 
part-financed by the European Union and the two Member States in question, 
which produce most of the Community's tobacco. 
In Greece, creation of the agency was delayed because of discussions regarding 
its statutes. The Greek authorities finally forwarded a draft plan to the Commission 
in December 1994. The statutes, together with the internal regulations of the 
agency, are being studied by the Commission's staff. 
The Italian agency has neither yet been set up, despite repeated requests by the 
EAGGF. Adoption of its statutes would appear to have been impeded by the 
reform of the body responsible for paying Community agricultural aids (AIMA), 
which is currently bogged down in the Italian Parliament. The EAGGF staff are still 
trying to push the matter forward so that the Italian agency can be set up as soon 
as possible. 
6.7.3. Community control body in the wine sector 
The activities of the Commission's body of specific officials for the wine sector 
in 1994 were sharply down on previous years because of the drastic reduction in 
the number of officials, of whom there are now only two. 
Their activities mainly centred on two themes: the introduction of the rules on the 
documents accompanying consignments of wine products and the vineyard 
registers on the one hand and the assessment of methods for forecasting wine 
yields of the other. 
85 
Following the entry into force of Council Directive 92/12/EEC on the general 
arrangements for products subject to excise duty and on the holding, 
movement and monitoring of such products and the Regulations concerning the 
accompanying administrative document for the movement under 
duty-suspension arrangements, on the one hand, and the simplified 
accompanying document for the intra-Community movement of products 
subject to excise duty which have been released for consumption in the 
Member State of dispatch, on the other, as well as Regulation (EEC) 
No 2238/93 on the accompanying documents for the carriage of wine products 
and the relevant records to be kept, the officials of the control body visited 
Italy, Spain and Portugal to find out how these Regulations had been 
introduced and whether operators had any difficulties in complying with them. 
The other producer Member States will also be visited in 1995. After which 
general conclusions on the all-round application of the Regulations will be 
drawn. 
The reform of the market organization for wine, which is currently being 
discussed by the Council, lays great emphasis on controlling yields. Reducing 
yields per hectare is one of the methods provided for to this end, with 
compensation for loss of earnings caused by lower production (section A of 
future regional wine-growing adjustment programmes). Three inspection visits 
were organized to Beaujolais (France), Dao (Portugal) and Peidmont (Italy) to 
assess on the spot a method for estimating the yield of individual parcels 
several weeks before the harvest. 
The main conclusion of the investigation was that a financial assessment of the 
loss of income caused by a voluntary reduction in yields poses control 
problems. 
The officials of the control body also verified the application of the aid for the 
utilization of rectified concentrated grape must in Italy (Emilia-Romagna) and 
the permanent abandonment of vineyards in Greece (Viotia). These checks 
revealed no serious infringements. 
Lastly, the control body was involved in the search for solutions in certain 
cases where producer Member States could not reach an agreement, 
particularly by organizing bilateral contacts, chiefly on matters of conformity of 
wine following analyses showing unusual levels of certain chemical 
components. 
86 
6.7.4. Community control body in the fruit and vegetables sector 
The activities of the Community control body in the fruit and vegetable sector were 
also cut back as a result of the small number of officials (two in total) assigned to 
it-
During the year the checks were targeted at the application of Commission 
Regulation (EEC) No 2251/92 on quality inspection of fresh fruit and vegetables. 
The Member States visited had mostly taken the necessary measures to comply 
with the above-mentioned Regulation. However, certain provisions (particularly 
exemption from checks) are applied using criteria which vary from country to 
country and the Regulation is sometimes interpreted very freely (general 
exemption for all operators). 
Since this is the beginning of the application of the new arrangements, these 
differences in interpretation should be corrected immediately. 
The inspection visits showed that the Community rules on compliance with 
standards are applied differently in the Member States and that shortcomings are 
to be found in most of the Member States of the Union. 
Thus, there were found to be inadequate checks on the domestic market in 
Greece, there is a growing tendency to overclass products in France and, in 
Denmark, the level of compliance with standards in the wholesale market in 
Copenhagen, and even the retail market, is far from satisfactory. In the former 
DDR, a market seems to be growing up for second-rate produce which do not 
even satisfy the minimum requirements. 
It is planned to visit it all the Member States by the end of 1995 and to draw up 
a report on the application of Regulation (EEC) No 2251/92 on quality inspection 
of fresh fruit and vegetables. 
6.8. Remote sensing 
The mechanism for checks by remote sensing developed gradually since 1990 by 
a specific small team of EAGGF services is common to all participating Member 
States and makes use of outside contractors. The tasks are shared between the 
national authorities, the contractor and the Commission. The main stages can be 
summarized as follows: 
87 
- selection of control areas, selection and administrative processing of files 
lodged in those areas, transfer of files to the contractor; 
- acquisition of satellite images or aerial photographs for those areas; 
- collection of the necessary topographical documents and digitization of the 
boundaries of the declared parcels; 
- acquisition of field data (reference parcels) 
- processing of images and/or photos, automatic classification and/or photo-
interpretation of parcels on images or photos; 
- classification of files, delivery of results and field documents; 
- on-the-spot checks of part of the files and decisions regarding eligibility. 
The purpose of photo-interpretation is to filter declarations with a view to reducing 
the number, duration and cost of on-the-spot checks. Contractors are involved only 
in the activities relating to photo-interpretation. The processing of files upstream 
and downstream in the process is done by the national authorities. The 
mechanism is therefore normally invisible to the farmers, because no third parties 
are involved in their relations with the authorities. The calculation of penalties, 
fines or financial consequences for the farmer is never entrusted to contractors. 
For the 1994 checks the Commission issued an invitation to tender and published 
common general conditions in agreement with the Member States in 
November 1993. All Member States took part with some variations, except 
Luxembourg. Although the contracts are now signed by the Member States 
pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 165/94, the checks were financed by the EAGGF 
up to a maximum of ECU 15 million (including images). From 1995, pursuant to 
the same Regulation, the Member State will have to finance half of the 
expenditure. 
In order to ensure the adequate distribution of the checks throughout the area 
concerned, 56 sites in all were identified in 1994 (as against 44 in 1993 and 27 
in 1992). The number of declarations and the figures for the checks carried out by 
remote sensing are shown in the table below. At least 5% of the files lodged must 
be checked, and 54% of that minimum have already been covered by remote-
sensing (as against 29% in 1993).

In 1994 three Member States (Germany, Spain and Italy) also earned out some 
checks using aerial photography. This is a simplified method whereby the area of 
declared parcels can be determined, but land utilization often has to be checked 
on the spot. 
The rules also call for "historical" checks over reference periods, carried out too 
by remote sensing in some Member States. A large number of selected files were 
checked in this way in the United Kingdom against archive images from 1986 
to 1991. More restricted tests were carried out in Denmark, Ireland and the 
Netherlands. 
A sum of approximately ECU 1.5 million (out of the ECU 15 million planned) has 
been earmarked by the Commission for the purchase of satellite images. A 
contract has been signed directly with LANDSAT and SPOT (suppliers of images). 
The images are lent to the contractors and recovered on completion of the 
contract. 
89 
In addition, there are two advantages to the Commission's purchase: the cost is 
lower because of the number of images bought and the images can be reused by 
other Commission departments (Joint Research Centre, etc.). 
In 1994, the second year of application of the integrated administration and control 
system, there was found to be a general improvement in the quality of the 
declarations submitted by farmers, as well as in the quality of the photo-
interpretation work done. 
The 1994 results were presented at a meeting attended by representatives of all 
the Member States on 6 and 7 December 1994. The average percentage of files 
approved by photo-interpretation is around 58% with 28% refused and 14% 
doubtful. The proportion of refusals and doubtfuls seems rather high, but this is 
because if a single "group of crops" exceeds a fixed tolerance threshold the photo-
interpreter must refuse the file. A subsequent examination of the same figures by 
parcel places them at 82%, 9% and 9% respectively. This means that only 18% 
of parcels did not succeed in being photo-interpreted and had to be checked on 
the spot. 
The average cost of checks in the Community was ECU 307 per declaration in 
1992 and ECU 249 in 1993. In 1994 it fell to ECU 201 per file, i.e. ECU 24 per 
parcel or ECU 6/ha, including images. The cost of buying the images is around 
ECU 25 per file. The average cost of equivalent checks on the ground has been 
put by the Member States at between ECU 160 and ECU 600 per holding. 
The three new Member State participated in the assessment of the 1994 results 
and have already prepared to participate in the 1995 checks.

Title IV 
CLEARANCE OF ACCOUNTS 
INTRODUCTION 
Under Article 5 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 729/70, the Commission is 
required to clear the annual accounts submitted by the Member States relating to 
payments from the Guarantee Section of the EAGGF. In addition to the correction 
of accounting errors (unfortunately still too frequent), the clearance of accounts 
has the purpose of checking that only the expenditure carried out in accordance 
with Community rules is reimbursed. 
An annual work programme, which is designed on the basis of certain criteria (e.g. 
risk analysis), makes it possible to direct controls towards the most significant 
measures in financial terms and those which present the greatest risks of 
irregularities, while ensuring a degree of equal treatment between the Member 
States. 
During 1994, the Clearance of Accounts Unit concentrated its main efforts in three 
fields: 
- the preparation and approval of the decision clearing the accounts for the 1991 
budget year; 
- the finalization of inspection visits and conclusion of the dialogues with Member 
States on the results of these visits in connection with the clearance exercise 
for the 1992 budget year; 
- carrying out inspection visits relating to the clearance of accounts for the 1993 
budget year. 
The reform of the clearance of accounts has lead to amendments to Council 
Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 on the financing of the common agricultural policy as 
well as Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1723/72 on making up accounts for the 
European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund, Guarantee Section 
(see 7.4.). 
In addition, changes were made to Council Regulation (EEC) No 4045/89 on 
scrutiny by Member States of transactions forming part of the system of financing 
by the Guarantee Section of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee 
Fund. The changes introduced are designed to provide better targeting of 
inspections and in particular an enhancement of risk-analysis techniques 
(see 7.5.). 
91 
7.1. Reform of the clearance of accounts procedure 
7.1.1. In March 1993 the Commission adopted guidelines for this reform, which aim at 
establishing a better bilateral dialogue, strengthening legal and financial security 
and dissociating purely accounting-type clearance from decisions resulting from 
scrutinizing the conformity of checking procedures. In addition, a new constructive 
spirit is to stress prevention rather than penalization. 
In July 1994 a conciliation body was set up by the Commission to guarantee a 
better dialogue (see 7.1.5.). 
7.1.2. An amendment to the basic Regulation (729/70) and the Financial Regulation, 
designed to put the other elements of the reform in place, was adopted by the 
Council on 22 May 1995(1) after having been the subject of numerous discussions 
during 1994 within the Council of Ministers and the Parliament. The Court of 
Auditors also gave its opinion on 22 December 1994. The European Parliament 
gave its opinion on 17 March 1995. 
7.1.3. The essential elements contained in the Commission proposal, and which were the 
subject of discussions within the Council of Ministers, are as follows: 
- the criteria for refusal of financing on the part of the Commission; 
- the period for which a refusal of financing would be valid; 
- cases of obvious abuse; 
- the coordinating body within each Member State; 
- the clearance procedures of the intervention agencies in each Member State; 
- the date of application of modifications; 
- the definition of 'paying agency'; 
- certification of the accounting procedures of each intervention agency and/or 
paying agency by an external body; 
- negative expenditure; 
- interest on sums due; 
- the protection of the data transmitted by the Member States to the 
Commission. 
O Council Regulation (EC) 1207/95 OJ L 125, 8.6.95. 
92 
7.1.4. In addition, the opinion of the EAGGF Committee was requested on 1 June 1995 
on the Commission Regulation on new making up accounts for the European 
Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund, Guarantee Section (1723/72) in order 
to finalize matters as quickly as possible following the adoption of the Regulation 
amending Regulation (EEC) No 729/70. 
7.1.5. Creation of a conciliation procedure within the framework of reform of the 
clearance of the EAGGF Guarantee Section's accounts 
A detailed but nevertheless essential aspect of the reform of the clearance of 
accounts as proposed by the Belle Group was the creation of a conciliation 
procedure, under which the Commission and the Member States would try to 
reconcile their respective positions concerning the action to be taken on the 
observations made by the Commission when checking the conformity of measures 
financed by the EAGGF Guarantee Section. 
Since the current provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 and those of 
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1723/72 on the clearance of accounts do not 
exclude the possibility of the Commission's setting up such a conciliation 
mechanism, the Commission has - by Decision 94/442/EC of 1 July 1994 - already 
implemented this aspect of the reform of the clearance procedure without waiting 
for the adoption by the Council of the proposed amendments to Regulation (EEC) 
No 729/70, so that the principles of the reform could begin to apply from the 
clearance exercise for budget year 1992. 
With regard to the terms of reference of the conciliation body, it is envisaged that 
it can be approached before consultation of the EAGGF Committee on the matter 
by any Member State to which, following checks in accordance with Article 9 of 
Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 and after bilateral discussion of the results, the 
Commission has communicated formally the conclusion that it intends to make a 
financial correction covering an amount which exceeds ECU 0.5 million or which 
accounts for more than 25% of the total annual expenditure of the Member State 
under the budget heading in question, or where questions of principle are involved. 
The Member State has a thirty-day deadline to refer the matter to the conciliation 
body, counting from the receipt of the report from the Commission staff informing 
it of their conclusions, by making an argued request for conciliation. 
Non-referral to the conciliation body does not affect the Member State's rights with 
regard to the subsequent clearance exercise or recourse to the Court of Justice. 
93 
The conciliation body is to work as rapidly and informally as possible, while giving 
equal hearing to the Commission and the national authorities concerned and 
communicating to them, at the end of its examination, a report on the results of the 
reconciliation process accompanied by any observations that the body considers 
useful if disagreement persists in whole or in part. 
If within four months of receiving a request the conciliation body has not reached 
a final conclusion, the reconciliation process is regarded as having failed. 
The report drawn up by the conciliation body within the time-limit referred to above 
is to be transmitted to the Member State concerned, to the other Member States 
through the EAGGF Committee, and to the Commission when preparing its 
proposal for the corresponding clearance decision. 
The opinion expressed by the conciliation body may not bind the Commission with 
regard to its own final decision, since it has exclusive competence in this field. 
With regard to the practical operation of the conciliation body, it is worth noting 
that, after consulting the EAGGF Committee, the Commission decided to appoint 
as its members five independent and highly qualified persons who are nationals 
of different Member States and give every assurance of being properly 
independent, as well as six alternate members fulfilling the same criteria. 
Several Member States have already referred requests for conciliation to the body 
on proposals of corrections of the clearance exercise for budget year 1992. 
7.2. Control of EAGGF Guarantee Section expenditure and the accounts 
clearance procedure for the 1991 financial year 
7.2.1. For the clearance of budget year 1991 (ending on 15 October 1991), controls 
commenced in April 1992 (after receipt of the annual statements) and were 
essentially completed in March 1993. Certain important files required several 
detailed controls, like milk quotas and expenditure connected with the accession 
of the new Länder; these controls were not completed until the first quarter of 
1994. 
This clearance exercise will be the last not to be affected by the reform of the 
clearance procedure. As from the clearance exercise for budget year 1992, some 
of the guidelines of the reform (e.g.request the conciliation body) were 
implemented. A large share of the Unit's human resources are involved in 
preventive investigations. The conclusions of these investigations can be brought 
by the Member State before the conciliation body set up on 1 July 1994. 
94 
Clearance checks on the 1991 accounts required 1 168 man/days of visits in the 
Member States, i.e. an average of almost 100 man/days per Member State. To 
this total must be added the work done by the external auditors who assessed the 
controls and examined the accounts of 12 of the largest paying agencies. By 
means of financial audits, practised by EAGGF for a number of years, it is possible 
to have some degree of certainty regarding the accounts accuracy of overall 
declared expenditure. 
7.2.2. The accounts clearance for budget year 1991 covers declared expenditure totalling 
ECU 31 360 million. , 
The total of unrecognized expenditure for that year was ECU 1 518 million. An 
amount never attained before. 
7.2.3. As in previous clearance operations, the EAGGF worked in close cooperation, 
during the various stages of the procedure, with the Legal Service and the 
Directorate-General for Financial Control. The latter took part in several inspection 
visits. 
The financial corrections were based on the Commission Decision of 
20 December 1985 on the criteria of correction to be applied and concern cases 
of failure to observe Community law, the granting of illegal aids by the Member 
States and infringements. The financial consequences for 1991 are set out in detail 
in Annex 23 to this report. 
The final results of controls relating to the clearance of accounts can be found in 
summary report Vi/320/94 of 21 December 1994. 
In addition, Commission Decision 94/871/EC on the clearance of accounts for 1991 
of the EAGGF Guarantee Section was published in Official Journal No L 352 of 31 
December 1994. 
The budgetary consequences of this decision will be booked to the 1995 budget. 
7.2.4. The salient points of the aforementioned decision are as follows: 
Milk products 
The lion's share of the financial corrections (ECU 1 175.3 million) concerns the 
dairy sector, as a result of the failure of certain Member States to comply with the 
milk quotas, the late collection of the levies by others, and the failure of two 
Member States to comply with the conditions of a programme for the restructuring 
of milk production. 
As regards clearance of accounts regarding milk quotas, on 21 October 1994 the 
Council and the Commission adopted joint conclusions providing for: 
95 
the increase in the quotas previously decided by the Council from 1993/94 to 
be applied retroactively to 1991/92 and 1992/93; 
the Commission to revise the clearance of accounts decisions for 1989 and 
1990 to base the financial corrections on the quotas allocated at the time and 
not on the retroactive application of the increase in quotas decided by the 
Commission initially for 1988/89 and 1989/90. The clearance of accounts 
decision for 1991 to be taken on the same basis; 
the withdrawal of appeals to the Court of Justice for the 1989 and 1990 
clearance decisions; 
the payment in four equal annual instalments (from 1995 to 1998) of the 
charge resulting, for the three Member States in question, from 
non-retroactivity of the quota increase for 1989 and 1991; 
the possibility of a variation of + 5% in the amounts of the corrections to be 
collected in national currency. 
Export refunds 
The corrections in this sector amounted to ECU 89.3 million, for the following 
reasons: 
the incorrect use of refund rates; 
ante-dated advance-fixing certificates; 
incorrect classification of exported products and non-recovery of amounts 
following irregularities noted; 
inconclusive destination certificates. 
Olive oil 
The olive oil sector continues to pose problems. The battery of control provisions 
was still being set up. Only one Member State implemented the olive oil register 
and the computer file of applicants for production aid. 
In Italy, many of the irregularities discovered were not followed by recovery of aid, 
either because the security, limited in the time, had expired, or because the 
recipients' cases are still before the national courts. In addition, production aid paid 
long after the legal deadlines was the subject of a correction with a negative 
reserve so that it can be cancelled if Italy provides evidence supporting the 
eligibility of the late payments. 
96 
Almost no checks other than administrative controls were carried out on production 
aid in Greece. 
The amount recovered in this sector totalled ECU 90 million. 
Cotton 
The 1991/92 cotton harvest greatly exceeded the estimates initially presented by 
Greece. In the absence of explanations from the Greek authorities, a special 
investigation covering budget years 1991 and 1992 was undertaken in cooperation 
with the national authorities. 
This investigation revealed a whole series of gaps and inaccuracies which 
inevitably had effects on Community finance. First of all, DYDAGEP did not check 
the various aid applications submitted by the Cotton Board. It was then found that 
cotton deliveries to ginning plants in one of the main production regions were 
made almost exclusively by intermediaries and that numerous delivery declarations 
had consequently been falsified. 
A comparison of quantities of cotton delivered for ginning and acreages revealed, 
in several files, extravagant yields without this leading to investigations by the 
competent authorities. 
The areas declared as sown to cotton are almost never checked, so there are 
doubts as to whether the financial advantages granted to small producers are 
justified. 
Lastly, existing methods for determining moisture content and impurities in cotton, 
with a view to calculating aid, are not accurate enough to guarantee the necessary 
reliability. 
The Greek authorities have therefore been asked to carry out an inquiry under 
Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 595/91 in order to detect frauds in this sector. 
The correspondence from the Greek authorities to the EAGGF on the inquiry has 
not provided the precise information which the EAGGF has been asking for since 
February 1993. Indeed, the Greek authorities have communicated neither the final 
conclusions of the inquiry nor an exact assessment of the financial impact of the 
irregularities found, as required by the inquiry procedures laid down in 
Regulation 595/91. In addition, the information provided does not make it possible 
to assess whether real improvements have been made to the Greek control 
arrangements. 
97 
The EAGGF considers that, in addition to the shortcomings in applying the rules 
governing checks on the eligibility of cotton production aid, Greece failed to comply 
with its obligations under Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 according to 
which the Member States must take the necessary steps to prevent and penalize 
irregularities. 
Accordingly, a financial correction of 25% of expenditure was decided, i.e. 
ECU 60.7 million. A correction of this order is provided for in guidelines on flat-rate 
correction rates set out in the document VI/216/93, which specifies that it is 
possible to refuse all the expenditure and that in such cases a higher correction 
rate (than 10%) can be deemed suitable in exceptional circumstances. 
When the Greek Authorities were informed of this correction amounting to 25% of 
expenditure (plus the threat not to recognize any cotton expenditure at all 1992), 
on 21 November 1994, they set up with the Commission a working party whose 
task is to ensure the application of substantially strengthened inspection 
procedures. The financial correction can therefore be reduced, in a later clearance 
decision, to 10% if these strengthened controls are actually implemented before 
31 December 1995. If these shortcomings and the absence of collaboration 
continue, the correction will be changed to 100% during the clearance of accounts 
of the next financial year. 
Public storage 
Large corrections are proposed owing to inadequate controls on the public storage 
of cereals (in Italy: ECU 24.7 million). 
With regard to beef and veal, two Member States accepted multiple tenders from 
closely associated operators circumventing the provisions restricting tenders to 
only one per operator. The Member States (Denmark, Ireland) argue that they 
cannot refuse multiple tenders as long as each tenderer is legally separate and 
different, but they never tried to do so, even in the most obvious cases. Since this 
state of affairs is not limited to these two countries, it was decided to disjoin the 
expenditure concerned until the clearance of the 1992 accounts pending the 
outcome of an investigation in all the Member States, thereby ensuring equal 
treatment. 
The corrections concerning missing cereals stocks in 1993 in Italy and in Greece, 
and those concerning beef and veal taken into intervention in 1992-93 for Ireland, 
Italy, the United Kingdom and France will be the subject of later decisions. 
98 
Livestock premiums 
Member States have great difficulty in ensuring a satisfactory level of checks on 
livestock premiums to detect or prevent frauds and irregularities. Corrections, often 
covering a region rather than an entire Member State, were decided for Germany 
(ECU 1.6 million), Spain (ECU 1.3 million), Ireland (ECU 0.8 million), and Italy 
(ECU 40.9 million). 
Wine 
This clearance exercise included the financial consequences of inaccurate 
production estimates made by the Member States, which resulted in the 
Commission fixing an insufficient quantity of wine for distillation (France 
ECU 5.9 million; Greece ECU 0.5 million; Spain ECU 4.1 million; Italy 
ECU 4.3 million). As the Member States contested the causal link between the 
communicated forecasts and an increase in expenditure, the EAGGF is studying 
the files in greater detail and therefore has proposed to isolate the expenditure 
concerned, the file being re-examined for 1992 clearance. 
Tobacco 
The accounts clearance includes the refusal to finance tobacco exported irregularly 
from Greece and Italy to Albania and Bulgaria (100% of expenditure: Greece 
ECU 12.8 million; Italy ECU 6.4 million), with reservations making it possible to 
reduce the corrections in the light of the results of the current investigations. 
Moreover, these two countries did not immediately pass on to recipients the 
reductions in the tobacco premiums required by the rules following the overrun of 
the MGQs (corrections: Greece ECU 17.9 million; Italy ECU 16.7 million). 
Dried fodder 
The aid for the production of dried fodder is initially intended to finance the drying 
costs. The EAGGF initially denied that there was any legal basis on which Member 
States could grant aid for the drying of grasses. Such aid can amount to 50% of 
the total aid granted under this measure. But since the Commission departments 
have now accepted, at Management Committee level, the payment of aid for the 
drying of grasses provided that the minimum protein content is complied with, and 
since the legal provisions are not sufficiently clear, the EAGGF has accepted that 
a refusal of financing would be unfair. A major review of the legal framework has 
accordingly been proposed in the context of the 1994/95 price proposals. 
99 
Accounting errors 
The Member States continue to make many substantial accounting errors in their 
declarations. In 1991 these amounted to ECU 8.6 million net. The most frequent 
errors concern the declaration of corrections to storage costs indicated by the 
EAGGF after the end of the financial year. If the reform of the clearance of 
accounts is adopted, Member States will have to certify the accounts of their 
disbursing agencies, which, hopefully, will put an end to accounting practices 
which are all too often approximate. 
Amounts corrected with reservations and separated out 
Corrections with reservations requiring additional information or further 
investigations have been made regarding cereal levies in France, aid for olive oil 
in Italy, cotton in Greece, tobacco premiums and export refunds in Italy, and export 
refund irregularities not recovered by Germany. The reservations concerning dairy 
levies in Spain in 1989 have been withdrawn. 
Some of the expenditure on public storage of beef and veal in Denmark and 
Ireland has been separated out pending the results of investigations underway in 
all the Member States. The same applies to some of the expenditure in the wine 
sector (see above). 
Financial consequences of judgements of the Court of Justice 
In addition to the above-mentioned case concerning cereal levies, the Court of 
Justice has handed down three judgements since the summary report for 1990, 
within the framework of appeals by the Member States against clearance 
decisions. In these three cases, the Court rejected the appeals, except with regard 
to a sum of DM 24 365. 
7.2.5. "Ad-hoc" clearance of accounts 
On 29 April 1994, the Commission adopted an ad-hoc clearance decision 
(94/281/CE) concerning the expenditure declared by Italy for the 1991 financial 
year pertaining to the free supply of agricultural products to the republics of the 
former Soviet Union in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 598/91. 
At the time of distribution in the recipient Republics, part of the tinned beef 
produced in Italy from frozen meat bought in by the German intervention agency 
was found to be unsuitable for human consumption. 
100 
After analysis of the samples taken in agreement with the Italian authorities and 
the producing firm, it was found that the meat produced could not be used owing 
to inadequate sterilization. Moreover, it was found that the Italian intervention 
agency had failed to provide the permanent control required by the Community 
rules, that it had paid for the manufacture of the tinned meat and released the 
wrong securities. 
Since there was an urgent need, because of the food shortage and for reasons of 
Community prestige, to replace the damaged goods already transported to the 
recipient Republics, the Commission decided that it could not wait for the normal 
accounts clearance procedure to recover the amounts necessary to organize 
replacement. 
7.3. 1992 
7.3.1. Expenditure claimed by the Member States in respect of 1992 totalled 
ECU 32.083 million.

The 1992 financial year began on 16 October 1991 and finished on 
15 October 1992. 
The above table shows that the Member States' transmission of accounts 
clearance data for the 1992 financial year did not take account of the deadline for 
transmission of these data, namely 31 March 1993. 
7.3.2. On-the-spot checks were carried out between October 1992 and September 1994, 
involving 1 408 working days in the Member States. In all there were 
148 inspection visits for the 1992 clearance exercise. 
7.3.3. The consultation procedure started with the notification in writing to the Member 
States of the results of the checks carried out. The Member States had the 
opportunity of giving their comments in their replies. Between 3 October 1994 and 
24 January 1995 bilateral meetings were held between the representatives of the 
Member States and the EAGGF staff to enable the parties to dialogue on the 
points still outstanding. 
In the meantime the Member States have received the official communication on 
the corrections that the Commission intends to make to their annual declarations 
of EAGGF Guarantee Section expenditure. 
These official communications enabled the Member States to request an opinion 
from the conciliation body on the specific corrections proposed by the 
Commission's staff. The summary report for 1992 is being drawn up, but the 
adoption of the clearance decision must await the outcome of the requests for 
conciliation, examination of which by the conciliation body can last up to four 
months (see 7.1.5.). 
7.3.4. Detail of clearance of accounts checks for 1992 
On the basis of the risk analysis carried out for the various agricultural measures, 
the EAGGF inspection teams focused their efforts on the following points: 
a. Export refunds 
- analysis of the customs administrative procedures in all the Member States, 
in particular the on-the-spot physical checks on goods exported under 
Regulation (EEC) No 386/90; 
- monitoring of the measures adopted by the Member States to rectify the 
shortcomings found during previous inspection visits; 
102 
- examination of the procedures relating to the prefinancing arrangements 
provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87; 
- checking whether or not refunds were granted on products in intervention. 
b. Milk products 
- on-the-spot checks of the application of the system of quotas and levies. 
c. Cereals, fruit and vegetables 
- checks on the procedures for public storage of cereals; 
- checks on the withdrawal arrangements for fruit and vegetables; 
- analysis of aid for the processing of fruit and vegetables. 
d. Oils and fats 
- check on production and consumption aid for olive oil; 
- check on production aid for cotton; 
- check on aid for dried fodder. 
e. Meat and fish 
- checks on the procedures for meat in intervention; 
- checks on the system of livestock premiums. 
f. Wine and tobacco 
- analysis of the inspection procedures for leaf tobacco premiums under the 
old common organization of market; 
- preventive inspection visit for the new market organization or tobacco 
(Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92); 
- checks on the measures for grubbing areas under vines; 
- checks on wine stocks at the end of each marketing year. 
103 
g. Integrated checks, arable crops 
Preventive audits were carried out in the arable crops sector, in particular 
concerning oilseeds, set-aside, arable crops and livestock premiums. 
h. Ex-post controls 
Preventive checks were also carried out in all the Member States pursuant to 
Regulation (EEC) 4045/89 whereby Member States must investigate operations 
which have been financed by the EAGGF Guarantee Section. 
The aim of these inspection visits was to encourage Member States to use 
control techniques based on risk analysis and detailed checks. In addition, 
EAGGF staff developed mutual assistance between Member States to ensure 
proper checks on transactions involving several Member States. 
i. Financial audits 
The object of the financial audits executed in 1994 was still the annual 
declaration for the 1992 financial year as drawn up by the paying agencies and 
the Member States. 
The purpose of the audits was to assess the procedures and measures of 
internal control in the financial departments of the paying agencies. The 
auditors had to check whether amounts stated in the annual declaration are 
based on complete receipts and correct payments and whether receipts and 
payments had been properly authorized and correctly classified, booked and 
reported as to date and measure. For that reason, the auditors had to establish 
the existence of adequate systems and procedures to ensure the conformity 
of the transactions with the conditions of Community legislation and their 
reliability. However, in general, the examination did not address compliance 
with Community rules and regulations governing specific "market" aspects. 
For the 1992 financial year the EAGGF carried out audits at 26 of the 
44 paying agencies, and together these agencies account for over two-thirds 
of the total expenditure of EAGGF. The total costs of audits carried out in 1993 
and 1994 was ECU 751 910. 
104 
During the audits the auditors described and appraised controls over payment 
schemes, and computer systems in particular, as adequate descriptions were, 
in most cases, not available. As well as verifying the accuracy of the 
declaration, the auditors paid attention to the improvement of the paying 
agencies' systems, and made recommendations. 
7.4. 1993 
7.4.1. Expenditure claimed by the Member States totalled ECU 34 748 million. The 
breakdown of expenditure in national currency by Member State and the dates on 
which the 1993 expenditure was notified to the EAGGF are shown in the following 
table. The Member States subsequently submitted many additional corrections in 
certain cases. 
A total of 103 on-the-spot checks were carried out for the 1993 financial year 
between 14 February 1994 and 10 March 1995, to which should be added the 
work performed by external auditors.

7.4.2. The checks carried out by the EAGGF inspection teams furthered the verifications 
commenced in all the sectors referred to in 7.3.4. Very detailed investigations were 
carried out with regard to the prefinancing of exports, public storage of cereals, 
production and consumption aid for olive oil, application of the vineyard registers 
in the wine sector, the measures accompanying the reform of the CAP and the 
integrated system for livestock premiums. 
7.5. Amendments to Regulation (EEC) No 4045/89 concerning ex-post checks to 
be carried out bv the Member States on the operations financed bv the 
EAGGFGuarantee Section 
The procedure set in motion in June 1994 with a view to amending Regulation 
(EEC) No 4045/89 was completed on 20 December 1994 with the publication in 
Official Journal L 328 of the new Regulation No 3094/94. 
The new Regulation focuses on: 
- the constituent components of a commercial document; 
- the selection of undertakings in the context of checks based on risk analysis; 
- strengthening mutual assistance between Member States; 
- increasing the flexibility of the arrangements for the Community's contribution. 
The new Regulation provides that the measures covered by the integrated 
administration and control system introduced by Regulation (EEC) No 3508/92 do 
not fall within the scope of Regulation (EEC) No 4045/89. 
7.6. Appeals to the Court of Justice against clearance decisions 
JUDGEMENTS HANDED DOWN BY THE COURT 
Since the Summary Report for 1991 was drawn up, the Court of Justice has 
handed down two judgements in respect of appeals lodged by Member States 
against clearance decisions for the 1988 and 1989 financial years. 
106 
- Judgement of 5 July 1994 (Case C-411/92) concerning co-responsibility levy 
in the cereals sector in France. The Court rejected the Member State's appeal. 
- Judgement of 9 August 1994 (Case C-413/92) concerning aid for the 
manufacture of casein. The Court annulled the 1989 clearance decision for 
failing to charge a sum of DM 24 365 to the EAGGF. 
APPEALS PENDING AT 30 SEPTEMBER 1994

TITLE V 
RELATIONS WITH THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT 
AND 
THE COURT OF AUDITORS OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES 
8.1. Relations with the European Parliament 
8.1.1. The European Parliament, one of the branches of the budgetary authority with the 
Council, is one of the Commission's, and therefore the EAGGF's, most important 
talking partners. The natural framework for this interinstitutional relationship is 
provided by the Parliamentary sessions, in which all Community budget matters 
are dealt with. 
The European Parliament has three parliamentary committees which deal with 
agricultural budgetary matters to varying degrees. The first two deal with the 
Community budget as a whole and the third with all matters relating to the 
Common Agricultural Policy. 
The Committee on Budgets concentrates on horizontal issues, including the 
definition and exercise of Parliament's budgetary powers. It is responsible in 
particular for the following: 
- estimates of revenue and expenditure, 
- financial resources, 
- the financial implications of Community acts, 
- transfers of appropriations authorising expenditure, etc. 
The Committee on Budgetary Control monitors correct implementation of the 
budget. In particular it is responsible for: 
- following the management of the EAGGF guarantee section expenditure (early 
warning system) 
- verifying that expenditure incurred is lawful and proper. 
- being informed of any fraud committed to the detriment of the budget, 
- making proposals for improving the effectiveness of expenditure and for the 
effectiveness of public accounting techniques in the Community, 
- cooperating with the Court of Auditors of the European Communities, whose 
reports such as the annual report, are important elements in the procedure of 
discharge 
- preparing the decision on which the European Parliament grants budgetary 
discharge to the Commission, etc. 
111 
The budgetary discharge is of special significance in that it is the decision by 
which the budgetary authority - in this case Parliament, after having studied the 
Council's recommendations - "frees" the executive - the Commission - from its 
administration, by closing the budget. 
The Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development is responsible for all 
matters relating to the Common Agricultural Policy. Within this framework, it looks 
into the activities of the EAGGF Guarantee Section, in particular those relating to 
the annual farm price proposals. 
8.1.2. The EAGGF is represented in the Parliamentary committees by its Director when 
agricultural budget issues are debated. In 1994 it took part in the dialogue which 
the Commission established with Parliament, in particular on the following subjects: 
- Discussions on the 1995 draft Community budget in the Committee on Budgets 
and the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development. 
Following debates in Parliament, on 15 December 1994 the 1995 Budget was 
adopted by Parliament's President. Parliament had amended some agricultural 
budget headings classed as compulsory expenditure (CE) by reclassifying them 
as non-compulsory expenditure (NCE) or mixed expenditure (CE/NCE). 
- Discussions on the decision to grant a budget discharge for 1992 in the 
Committee on Budgetary Control. 
On 1 December 1994 the Committee on Budgetary Control recommended to 
the Parliament not to grant the Commission a budget discharge for 1992 
(eleven votes against a discharge, nine for and one abstention), and to hold 
over a decision to 1995. The issue preventing a discharge from being given 
was the non-recovery by the Commission of ail the amounts originally laid 
down in the clearance decisions of 1992,1993 and 1994 (relating to the 1989, 
1990 and 1991 financial years respectively) for the non-application of the milk 
quota system in Italy, Spain and Greece. 
Parliament criticised the changes to the original corrections made after the 
Council agreement in 1992 increasing milk quotas in Spain and Italy. That 
agreement was reached after it had been shown that the national statistics 
serving as the basis for the allocation of quotas did not reflect the real milk 
production situation in those countries. According to Parliament, such a 
correction entails the retroactive application of the increased quota system, and 
consequently is to the detriment of the financial interests of the European 
taxpayer. In addition Parliament considered the information provided by the 
Commission to be too late and incomplete. 
112 
8.1.3. As regards legislation, the opinion of the European Parliament was asked in 1994 
concerning two major proposals for Regulations on the EAGGF Guarantee Section. 
They should be adopted by the Council in 1995, as should the Commission 
Regulations implementing them. The proposals are: 
- Proposal for a Council Regulation (EC) amending Council Regulation (EEC) 
No 729/70 on the financing of the common agricultural policy. 
This proposal amends the procedure for clearance of the EAGGF accounts to 
make it more effective, rapid and transparent. The procedure will be divided 
into two stages: verification of accounts and examination for conformity. In 
addition, the proposal provides for a conciliation procedure to try to iron out any 
differences between the Commission and the Member States on cases in 
which Community funding is denied. 
Parliament, which endorses the amendment, would like to play a role in the 
procedure and be able to submit the Commission's clearance decisions to a 
case-by-case discharge exercise after the opinion of the Court of Auditors has 
been heard. 
- Proposal for a Council Regulation (EC) on the measures to be taken in respect 
of certain beneficiaries of operations financed by the EAGGF Guarantee 
Section ("blacklist"). 
This proposal is aimed at identification by the Member States' national 
authorities of operators who are known to be or suspected of having been 
involved in irregularities against the EAGGF Guarantee Section and lays down 
the measures to be taken to prevent them from committing further irregularities. 
Parliament has endorsed this proposal but has suggested that some articles 
should be strengthened (see 6.2.6). 
8.2. Relations with the Court of Auditors of the European Communities 
8.2.1. Relations between the Court of Auditors and the EAGGF are a logical 
consequence of the nature of the responsibilities of the former and the part of the 
budget administered by the latter. 
The basic purpose of the Court of Auditors is to audit the Community accounts. In 
addition, the Maastricht Treaty has given this Community institution a very 
important role, beginning in 1995 for the 1994 budget year, in that it is called upon 
to provide a statement of assurance as to the reliability of the Community accounts 
and the legality and regularity of the underlying transactions. The issue of this 
statement is certification of the fact that the accounts give an accurate picture of 
the year in question. It will also be a determining factor in the procedure for 
granting a discharge to the budgetary authority, which will use it in the debate on 
granting such discharge. 
113 
8.2.2. The Court of Auditors carries out a large number of audits in the Commission's 
departments to perform its auditing tasks. Court agents often visit the EAGGF 
departments to gather data and information to enable it to deliver an opinion, post-
audit letters or special reports. Where appropriate, it suggests guidelines to the 
Commission to improve its budgetary administration and the effectiveness of 
Community measures. 
8.2.3. Annual report 
The Court of Auditors draws up an annual, general report on the previous budget 
year in which it analyses, in various chapters, the life and administration of the 
budget in question. It devotes some chapters of the report to the activities of the 
EAGGF Guarantee Section. 
Publication of the report is preceded by meetings between the Court of Auditors 
and the Commission to enable each institution to take stock of the Court's 
arguments and conclusions, and of the Commission's replies and explanations. The 
report is the result of audits made by the Court in the Community institutions and 
inspection missions in the various Member States. 
The annual report on the 1993 financial year accompanied by the Commission's 
replies (OJ C No 327, 24.11.1994) included three chapters on the EAGGF 
Guarantee Section. The arguments put forward by the Court in these chapters and 
the replies given by the Commission are summarized as follows: 
Management and budgetary control (Chapter 2) 
a) Clearance of accounts and milk quotas. 
a. 1 ) The Court regretted that the milk quota system was not fully implemented in 
all the Member States right from the moment the regulations became 
applicable. 
The Commission pointed to the special adjustment difficulties encountered 
by the Member States in the earlier years of application of the system. It 
pointed out that significant financial corrections had been made for the 1987 
financial year and subsequent years under the clearance procedure, and that 
the quota system was now applied in full in all Member States, except in 
Italy, where major progress had nevertheless been made. 
114 
a.2) The Court criticised the changes in the corrections made to the clearance 
decisions of 1992 and 1993 for the 1989 and 1990 financial years (see 
above). It argued that these decisions did not have a sufficient legal basis 
in that the agreement of the Council did not bind the Commission which, 
according to the Court, applied the new quotas retroactively. 
In the Commission's opinion, the legal basis was Regulation (EEC) 
No 729/70 on the financing of the common agricultural policy. It pointed out 
that the objective considerations which led the Council to increase the 
quotas in 1993/1994 were also valid in respect of previous years and that 
as a result the financial corrections should be calculated on the basis of the 
increased quotas. 
b) Controls over EAGGF expenditure by the Member States. 
The Court's staff, who in 1994 completed their round of audits at the paying 
agencies of the twelve Member States, went this time to Denmark and 
Germany, where they revealed weaknesses in the functioning of the paying 
agencies. In Denmark the difficulties related to export refunds and public 
storage. The problems in Germany are a result of the highly decentralised 
administration which in some cases leads to management difficulties. 
Organisation and management of the viticultural product market (Chapter 3) 
In its report, the Court of Auditors points to the existence of a permanent 
imbalance on the viticultural product market and the inadequacy of current 
measures to deal with the situation. Among other things, the Court criticises 
insufficient staffing of the inspection body assigned specifically to this common 
market organisation. 
Although it accepts the Court of Auditor's criticisms to a large extent, the 
Commission pointed out that a draft Regulation reforming this market containing 
some of the ideas put forward by the Court was before the Council for adoption. 
Aid for the production of skimmed milk from casein and caseinates (Chapter 4) 
The Court of Auditors proposed that the Commission should harmonise procedures 
in the parts of the regulations covering the submission of aid applications and the 
various penalty systems so as not to obstruct free competition on this market. It 
also proposed that the aid should be granted only for the production of high-quality 
casein making up the greater part of milk disposals. Finally, it suggested that the 
method for fixing the aid should be reformulated. 
The Commission undertook to examine the changes proposed by the Court and 
will adopt those it considers to be appropriate to make this aid more effective.

TITLE VI 
CHAPTER B2-5K1) 
COMPLETION OF THE INTERNAL MARKET 
CONTROLS 
AND 
OTHER OPERATIONS IN THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR 
9.1. Measures financed 
This Chapter was allocated ECU 205.8 million in commitment appropriations (CA) 
and ECU 133.4 million in payment appropriations (PA) in the 1994 budget. It 
covers a wide range of measures linked to the different sectors of agriculture, such 
as the eradication of livestock diseases (item B2-51000, CA/PA 110/60); other 
measures in the veterinary field, vaccinations, emergency funds (B2-5101, CA/PA 
19/14); plant health measures, comparative trials, licences, etc. and measures in 
the remotest regions (Poseidon, Poseima, etc.) (item B2-5102, CA/PA 4/3); the 
financing of olive oil inspection agencies, implementation of vineyard registers (B2-
511 CA/PA 28.5/18); part-financing of the farm accountancy data network (FADN) 
(item B2-5120, CA/PA 7.7/7.2); agricultural statistical surveys (item B2-513, CA/PA 
4.3/4.254); information (item B2-514, CA/PA 3.3/3.2); protection of forests against 
fire and atmospheric pollution (item B2-515, CA/PA 19/16); payment of 
contributions of the Union to international agreements on wheat and sugar, part-
financing of the International Olive Oil Council (item B2-516, CA/PA 3.7/3.5); the 
launching of measures for the conservation of genetic resources in agriculture 
(item B2-517, CA/PA 3.8/2.7). 
9.2. Management in 1994 
The main problem was that of clearing the potential debt incurred by the Union for 
livestock disease eradication measures decided on before 31 December 1993 
(item B2-5100). At the beginning of 1993 this debt had been estimated at more 
than ECU 300 million, and it was planned to clear it by partly blocking the 
appropriations earmarked for such measures in 1993, 1994 and 1995. 
Following brisk action by the Commission's departments, the debt was reassessed 
and could be fully cleared in 1994, when appropriations were also unblocked and 
new eradication measures launched to the tune of ECU 65.4 million. 
(1) Chapter B2-51 is not covered by the EOGGF Guarantee Section but since it concerns 
expenditure in the agricultural sector, itlhâts been thought useful to include this Title in the 
report. 
The Council also adopted new rules introducing greater transparency and allowing 
better management of the appropriations for disease eradication (Decision 
94/370/EC of 21 June 1994). 
Important expenditure was incurred under item B2-5101, which covers the 
emergency veterinary fund, as a result of the outbreak of classical swine fever in 
1994. In relation to the initial allocation of ECU 19 million (CA) and ECU 14 million 
(PA), this item ended the year with a final utilization of ECU 35.7 million (CA) and 
ECU 31.8 million (PA). 
With regard to other items, salient points are the under-utilization of the 
appropriations of item B2-511 (agricultural controls), mainly because of the 
problems arising in the implementation of the vineyard registers; the poor 
utilization of payment appropriations of item B2-515 (forestry: ECU 11.9 million 
spend, as against ECU 14 million allocated) as a result of the lack of dossiers from 
the Member State, and the fact that none of the appropriations for the conservation 
of genetic resources were utilized because the Council only adopted the necessary 
legal basis on 20 June 1994 (Council Regulation (EC) No 1467/94), too late to 
utilize appropriations in 1994, in view of the tendering procedures to be launched 
and the projects to be selected. 
In all, in relation to the initial amounts of ECU 205.8 million (CA) and 
ECU 133.45 million (PA), and after reallocation from under-utilized items to over-
utilized items, ECU 192.7 million were actually committed and ECU 126.5 million 
were actually paid in accordance with the breakdown shown in the table in the 
annex. 
The EAGGF was responsible for carrying out certain controls on these allocations, 
which resulted in adjustments being made.

REMARKS 
The budget nomenclature is changed each year to take account of developments in 
the common agricultural policy and its financing. Thus, in 1994, certain expenditure 
was not booked in the same chapter as it had been in 1993: 
1993 1994 
Cereals Chap. 10 
Cereals and rice Chap. 10 
Arable crops 
Rice Chap. 10 
Cereals and rice Chap. 18 
Other crop products

Oils and fats Chap. 12

Arable crops 
Dried fodder Chap. 13 
Protein crops Chap. 13 
Dried fodder and dried 
vegetables 
Set-aside Chap. 40 
Set-aside Chap. 10 
Arable crops 
As a result, there has been a change in the way expenditure is grouped in the 
following summary tables (Annexes 3, 4, 8 and 30b). 
in order to ensure that comparisons with past data are not distorted, i.e. to avoid 
cases where there seems to be a large difference in the amount of expenditure from 
one year to the next in a given sector, simply as a result of a change of grouping, the 
following principle is followed: 
- the most recent nomenclature is used (1994) in this report, 
- the aggregates for previous years are recalculated for this nomenclature. 
122 
However, this means that certain sub-totals published in this report are different 
to those published in the reports of previous years. For example: 
1990 expenditure of Chapter 10, Cereals and Rice, amounted to ECU 3 261.5 
million (Annex 3 to the Twenty-Third Financial Report, page 145). This is the 
"real" expenditure in the accounting meaning of the term. 
To make comparisons possible, 1990 expenditure under Chapter 10, Arable Crops, 
as recalculated is given as ECU 7 834.5 million in this Report (Annex 3). 
This figure was obtained as follows: 
1990 expenditure under old Chapter 10, Cereals and Rice 3 884.6 
- 1990 expenditure on rice - 85.1 
+ 1990 expenditure on oilseeds + 3 477.0 
+ 1990 expenditure on protein crops + 834.8 
- 1990 expenditure on dried fodder - 298.0 
+ 1990 expenditure on set-aside +21.2 
New total 1990 expenditure under Chap. 10, Arable Crops: 7 834.5 
2. Certain totals or sub-totals of expenditure in the following tables sometimes differ 
by ECU 0.1 million from the amount obtained arithmetically by adding the lines 
or columns. This difference is due to rounding up and down. The totals are 
generally expressed in ECU million while the calculations are carried out using 
amounts in ecus.

Footnote to Annex il: 
The breakdown of expenditure by Member State is made purely for accounting purposes and must be treated with the utmost caution if analytical conclusions 
are to be drawn from it, given that, firstly, the deadlines for payments may differ very considerably depending on the Member State and, secondly, that the 
expenditure incurred by the latter on account of the fact that the Community constitutes for agricultural products a unified economic area. As an example of this, 
some export refunds for a product coming from one Member State are paid by another Member State or buying-in may take place in a neighbouring country.

CLEARANCE OF ACCOUNTS IN RESPECT OF COMMUNITY FOOD AID 
FOR PRODUCTS SUBJECT TO EEC MARKET ORGANIZATION 
The Commission took the decision relating to the clearance of accounts for 1984,1985,1986 
and 1987 on 31 March 1992 (92/235/EEC)(1). With these clearance operations the old system 
of financing Commmunity food aid to developing countries came to an end. 
Nonetheless, the Commission voiced some reservations concerning specific aid operation, 
which are the subject of legal proceedings. 
These reservations will be lifted where appropriate in the light of the outcome of these 
procedures.

FREE SUPPLY OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS TO THE COUNTRIES OF CENTRAL 
AND EASTERN EUROPE AND THE FORMER USSR 
Since 1989 the Community, acting under various regulations, has provided free supplies of 
agricultural products for the populations of a number of central and eastern European 
countries and the former USSR (see Financial Reports for 1990, 1991 and 1992). 
The following tables show the cumulative expenditure, specify, where appropriate, the 
expenditure for 1994. 
1. Free supply of agricultural products to Poland and Romania decided on in 1989 and

The costs incurred by the delay in taking over products by the authorities to which they 
were consigned at the dates planned are to be repaid by the Commission (Decision 
C(91) 1672). So far ECU 727 322.2 has been repaid in this way. 
However, it should be noted that the total cost to the budget, including the costs of 
delays, is ECU 198.4 million (ECU 7.3 million to the 1989 budget, ECU 183.3 million to 
the 1990 budget, ECU 7.4 million to the 1991 budget and ECU 400 000 to the 1992 
budget). 
Not all of this amount has been charged to the Guarantee Section. ECU 51.3 million, 
the cost of the second tranches for Poland and Romania, was prefinanced by the 
EAGGF and finally taken over following its charging to the budget line for cooperation 
with developing and non-member countries. 
These products have been placed on sale in local markets and the proceeds of those 
sales used to set up local currency counterpart funds. These funds will be used, in 
conjunction with the Phare programme, for projects related to the modernization of 
agricultural structures in the countries concerned.

Free supply of agricultural products to Bulgaria. Romania and the CIS decided on in 
1991 
The general climate of political change in the East, which began in 1989/90 in central 
and eastern Europe, spread in 1991 to the former Soviet Union. 
Following the Rome European Council in December 1990, the Council of Ministers 
adopted measures to assist Bulgaria (ECU 27 million), Romania (ECU 53 million) and 
the former Soviet Union (ECU 250 million) by supplying food and by providing 
ECU 500 million in loan guarantees for exports of agricultural and food products. 
The detailed rules for the application of these various programmes were adopted 
between May and July 1991. 
All these operations, costing a total of ECU 330 million, were financed by the EAGGF 
from appropriations carried over from 1990. 
Under the regulations adopted, the total quantities supplied from 1991 were as follows:

O Amount recovered: ECU 11.8 million 
The operations concerning the former Soviet Union mainly involved packaged products 
specially purchased on the Community market. 
204 
These goods were carried and distributed to the addressees in the former Soviet Union 
(the whole territory apart from the Baltic Republics) mainly under the responsibility of 
non-governmental organizations. 
Implementation in the former Soviet Union using non-governmental organizations 
proved particularly difficult. 
As a result of manufacturing faults, part of the goods supplied to certain places was 
found to be unfit for human consumption (tinned meat). With the recovered funds, which 
amounted to ECU 11.8 million, a fresh supply was therefore arranged for the peoples 
of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. 
On 31 May 1994 the Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 1251/94 laying down 
detailed rules for the supply of 3 800 tonnes of boned beef in storage in Ireland, 3 000 
tonnes of butter stored in Spain and 5 000 tonnes of flour produced in France. 
Free supply of agricultural products to Moscow. St Petersburg and other Russian towns, 
decided on in 1992 
Following the European Council on 9 and 10 December 1991, it was decided to send 
emergency food aid to the people of Moscow, St Petersburg and other Russian towns, 
worth a total of ECU 200 million. 
Two Council Regulations, one based on the market organization regulations 
(ECU 95 million), the other on Articles 43 and 235 of the Treaty (ECU 100 million) were 
approved by the Council on 19 December 1991 and 10 February 1992 respectively. 
Funding was provided by the EAGGF Guarantee Section: ECU 100 millipn from 
appropriations carried over from 1991 and ECU 95 million from 1992 appropriations.

4. Free supply of agricultural products to Albania, decided on in 1992 
A group of experts from the Commission, in its capacity as coordinator of G-24, visited 
Albania in 1991 and noted the alarming state of the economy in that country. To meet 
the basic and urgent needs of the population, the Council decided on aid in the form of 
food aid consisting of agricultural products from intervention stocks. 
Italy had established a military supply system to channel food aid from that country to 
various regions within Albania. This system was kept in place by Italy and used to 
transport Community food aid by land (Pellicano). 
The Commission bore the costs of land transport which had been met by Italy between 
1 January and 31 December 1992.

The Council decided on 2 July 1992 on aid amounting to ECU 120 million as 
humanitarian assistance to refugees and displaced persons in the former Yugoslavia. 
210 
Out of this total, ECU 72.5 million was intended for food aid from the EAGGF Guarantee 
Section appropriations. This portion was mobilized through the adoption of two 
Regulations: 
Council Regulation (EEC) No 2139/92 of 23 July 1992, which provided for the 
mobilization of intervention products, and 
Council Regulation (EEC) No 2793/92 of 21 September 1992, which also provided 
for the purchase of products on the Community market.

N B : These appropriations were used primarily to finance the food 
components (sugar, cheese, corned beef, tinned fish, etc.) of 
family parcels for distribution, by way of priority, to refugees. 
Furthermore, in addition to normal expenditure on withdrawals, the EAGGF has met the 
costs of sorting, packing and transport to the Community frontier of fruit and vegetables 
withdrawn from the market, particularly potatoes and oranges, which have been made 
available to charitable organizations approved by the Member States for that purpose 
and distributed free of charge to victims of the conflict in the former Yugoslavia.

7. Free supply of agricultural products to the peoples of Georgia. Armenia. Azerbaijan. 
Tajikistan and Moldova 
On 27 July 1994 the Council adopted Regulation (EC) No 1999/94, which provides for 
the free supply of agricultural products to the above countries with a view to improving 
the food situation and taking account of the wide variety of local situations without 
compromising development towards supply in accordance with market rules. 
Of the total budget for the operation (ECU 204 million), ECU 165 million were taken 
from EAGGF appropriations.
