PRELIMINARY DRAFT AMENDING BUDGET No 7 TO THE BUDGET FOR 2004 - GENERAL STATEMENT OF REVENUE(presented by the Commission)Having regard to:- the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 272 thereof,- the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, and in particular Article 177 thereof,- the Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities [1], and in particular Articles 15 and 37 thereof,[1]  OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1.The European Commission hereby presents to the budgetary authority the preliminary draft amending budget No 7 to the 2004 budget for the reasons set out in the explanatory memorandum.***EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUMThe present Preliminary Draft Amending Budget (PDAB) aims at budgeting the surplus resulting from the implementation of the budget year 2003. As provided for in the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities [2], under Article 15, it is the only subject of this PDAB and it is submitted within 15 days following the submission of the provisional accounts, which took place on 1 May 2004.[2]  OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, P. 1.1. REVENUE1.1. Balance of budget 2003The implementation of the budget year 2003 shows a surplus of EUR 5 469 843 705,65 shared between a component resulting from an over-registering in revenue (+EUR  850 023 235,85), an under-spending in expenditure (+EUR 4 728 809 433,65) and a negative balance of monetary exchange (-EUR 108 988 963,62).The over-registering of revenue can be analysed by title as follows:&gt;TABLE POSITION&gt;The under-spending of payment appropriations in 2003 can be analysed by heading of the Financial perspective as follows.&gt;TABLE POSITION&gt;* not including payment appropriations corresponding to assigned revenue.This budgeting of the surplus will diminish accordingly the global contribution of the Member States to the financing of the EU Budget. However, the effect by Member State of this global decrease is also influenced by the updated own resources forecast including the updated amount of the UK correction and the budgeting of the surplus of the guarantee fund for external loans. This will be the subject of a separate Preliminary Draft Amending Budget, to be presented by the Commission at the end of May, which is expected to change further the amounts of the contributions by country.
