3.

Joint answer
to Written Questions P-1369/00 and P-1370/00
given by Mr Fischler on behalf of the Commission

(15 June 2000)

1.
The Community Tobacco Fund (Research and Information) was set up under Article 13 of Council
Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the market in raw
tobacco (1). This Article was amended by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1636/98 of 20 July 1998 (2), which
widened the purposes of the Fund and raised the deduction to 2 % of the premium paid to growers for
each crop. At the moment this corresponds to about € 19 million.

In practice the Commission launches projects financed from the ad hoc heading Community fund for
research and information (B1-185). The appropriations for this correspond to the estimate of actual costs
incurred for the financial year in question. The Commission ensures that appropriations/expenditure under
this heading do not exceed the product of the deduction.

2.
The Fund has not financed any new projects since 1997 but the appropriations available have
permitted financing of the projects in progress selected following two calls for proposals, in 1994 and in
1996. These multiannual projects are in effect financed in annual instalments.

The Commission plans to launch new projects in the coming months.

December 1993 laying down the trade arrangements applicable
to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural
products (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC)
No 2491/98 (2), and in particular the first subparagraph of
Article 8(3) thereof,

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1222/94 of
30 May 1994 laying down common detailed rules for the
application of the system of granting export refunds on certain
agricultural products exported in the form of goods not
covered by Annex I to the Treaty, and the criteria for fixing the
