A. whereas Amending Budget No 5/2006 comprises three different elements, namely the mobilisation of
new funds for the financial support to encourage the economic development of the Turkish Cypriot
community, an increase in the appropriations for the European Year of Equal Opportunities for All
(2007) and the creation of two new budget lines following the modernisation of the Commission's
accounting system,

the economic development of the Turkish Cypriot community go back to the decision of Council taken
on 26 April 2004 in Luxembourg, following the results of the referenda in Cyprus, and have not been
budgeted yet due to delays in the adoption of the legal basis,
