A. INTRODUCTION AND FINANCING OF THE GENERAL BUDGET

INTRODUCTION

The general budget of the European Union is the instrument which sets out and authorises the total amount of revenue and expenditure deemed
necessary for the European Community and the European Atomic Energy Community for each year.

The budget is established and implemented in compliance with the principles of unity, budgetary accuracy, annuality, equilibrium, unit of account,
universality, specification, sound financial management and transparency.

— The principle of unity and the principle of budgetary accuracy mean that all Community revenue and expenditure and that of the European Union

when it is charged to the budget must be incorporated in a single document.

— The principle of annuality means that the budget is adopted for one budgetary year at a time and that both commitment and payment appro-

priations for the current budgetary year must, in principle, be used in the course of the year.

— The principle of equilibrium means that forecasts of revenue for the budgetary year must be equal to payment appropriations for that year:
borrowing to cover any budget deficit which may arise is not compatible with the own resources system and will not be authorised.

— In accordance with the principle of unit of account, the budget is drawn up and implemented in euro and the accounts shall be presented in

euro.

— The principle of universality means that total revenue is to cover total payment appropriations with the exception of a limited number of rev-
enue items which are assigned to particular items of expenditure. All revenue and expenditure is entered in full in the budget without any
adjustment against each other.

— The principle of specification means that each appropriation must have a given purpose and be assigned to a specific objective in order to pre-

vent any confusion between appropriations.

— The principle of sound financial management is defined by reference to the principles of economy, efficiency and effectiveness.

— The budget is established in compliance with the principle of transparency, ensuring sound information on implementation of the budget and

the accounts.

The budget presents appropriations and resources by purpose (activity-based budgeting), with a view to enhancing transparency in the manage-
ment of the budget with reference to the objectives of sound financial management and in particular efficiency and effectiveness.

The expenditure authorised by the present budget totals EUR 126 551,10 million in commitment appropriations and EUR 115 497,22 million in
payment appropriations, representing growth rates of 4,96 % and 7,56 % respectively by comparison with the 2006 budget.

Budgetary revenue totals EUR 115 497,22 million. The uniform rate of call for the VAT resource is 0,3334 % whilst that for the GNI resource is
0,6769 %. Traditional own resources (customs duties, agricultural duties and sugar levies) account for 14,99 % of the financing of the budget for
2007. The VAT resource accounts for 15,44 % and the GNI resource for 68,53 %. Miscellaneous revenue for this financial year is estimated at
EUR 1 209,27 million.

The own resources needed to finance the 2007 budget account for 0,98 % of the total GNI, thus falling below the ceiling of 1,24 % of GNI cal-
culated using the method set out in Article 3(1) of Council Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom of 29 September 2000 on the system of the Euro-
pean Communities’ own resources (OJ L 253, 7.10.2000, p. 42).

The tables below set out step by step the method used to calculate the financing of the 2007 budget.

Calculation of the uniform call rate for VAT own resources
(Article 2(4) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

Uniform rate (%) = maximum call rate – frozen rate

A. The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2007.

B. Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of

Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

(1) calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden:

In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL),
Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution.

Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany:

Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = (Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)) x 1/4 x United
Kingdom correction

Example: Germany

Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 919 942 000 / (53 473 109 000 – 9 693 423 000) × 1/4 × 5 251 202 631 = 297 464 591

(2) calculation of the frozen rate:

Frozen rate = (UK correction – theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)]/[EU capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D +
NL + A + S))

Frozen rate = 5 251 202 631 – (297 464 591 + 76 765 475 + 34 259 575 + 39 897 761))/(53 473 109 000 – (9 693 423 000 +
9 919 942 000 + 2 559 999 000 + 1 142 499 000 + 1 330 523 000))

Frozen rate = 0,166609823430018 %

Uniform rate

0,5 % – 0,166609823430018 % = 0,333390176569982 %

(1) Rounded percentages.
(2) The amount of pre-accession expenditure (PAE) corresponds to payments made to the 10 new Member States (which joined the EU on 1 May 2004) under 2003 appro-
priations, as adjusted by applying the EU GDP deflator for 2004 and 2005. This amount is deducted from total allocated expenditure to ensure that expenditure which
is unabated before enlargement remains so after enlargement.

(3) The ‘UK advantage’ corresponds to the effects arising for the United Kingdom from the changeover to capped VAT and the introduction of the GNP/GNI-based own

resource.

(4) These windfall gains correspond to the net gains of the United Kingdom resulting from the increase — from 10 to 25 % as of 1 January 2001 — in the percentage of

traditional own resources retained by Member States to cover the collection costs of traditional own resources (TOR).

Under the common organisation of the market in the sugar sector, sugar producers pay basic and B production levies to cover
market support expenditure.

However, the application of a ceiling to the levies as provided for in Article 15 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 may lead to
their not fully covering the estimated total loss due to the existence of an exportable surplus calculated in accordance with para-
graphs 1 and 2 of the said Article. The complementary levy referred to in Article 1 1 6 of this chapter will then have to be paid
by sugar producers in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001.

Forecasts are net figures (without collection costs).

Legal basis

(OJ L 178, 30.6.2001, p. 1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 (OJ L 58, 28.2.2006, p. 1).

This article is intended for recording the income charged by new Member States in the event of non elimination of sugar stocks
considered surplus within the meaning of Commission Regulation (EC) No 60/2004 of 14 January 2004 laying down transi-
tional measures in the sugar sector by reason of the accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hun-
gary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia (OJ L 9, 15.1.2004, p. 8).

It is also intended to record revenue from the outstanding sugar storage levies as Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of
19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (OJ L 178, 30.6.2001, p. 1) abolished the storage
levy.

This article also covers the amounts due pursuant to Article 5 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 65/82 of 13 January 1982
laying down detailed rules for carrying forward sugar to the following marketing year (OJ L 9, 14.1.1982, p. 14) when the obli-
gation to store sugar carried forward is not complied with and the amounts due according to Council Regulation (EEC)
No 1789/81 laying down general rules concerning the system of minimum stocks in the sugar sector (OJ L 177, 1.7.1981, p. 39)
when the general rules concerning the system of minimum stocks in the sugar sector are not complied with.

Continuation of the existing production quota arrangements for sugar requires that similar arrangements be applied to the pro-
duction of inulin syrup, a direct substitute for isoglucose and liquid sugar, to prevent this product from disturbing a market
which, because of the surplus, could further increase the export costs of sugar and isoglucose producers alone.

The common organisation of the market in sugar provides that inulin syrup producers pay basic and B production levies and
where necessary the additional levy covering market support expenditure.

Forecasts are net figures (without collection costs).

Legal basis

Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector

Article 15 of the Financial Regulation states that the balance from each financial year, whether surplus or deficit, is entered as
revenue or expenditure in the budget of the subsequent financial year.

The relevant estimates of such revenue or expenditure are entered in the budget during the budgetary procedure and, where
appropriate, in a letter of amendment submitted pursuant to Article 34 of the Financial Regulation. They are drawn up in accor-
dance with the principles set out in Article 15 of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000.

After the closure of the accounts for each financial year, any discrepancy in relation to the estimates is entered in the budget for
the following financial year through an amending budget.

A deficit is entered in Article 27 02 01 of the statement of expenditure of Section III ‘Commission’.

Article 127 of the Act of Accession of Greece provided that during the transitional period (1981 to 1985) a decreasing pro-
portion of the GNP-based financial contributions or of the VAT own resources paid by Greece into the general budget of the
European Communities should be refunded.

Only the corrections to the VAT balances for 1981 to 1985 entered in Chapter 3 1 may lead to adjustments of the financial
contributions made by Greece for the years in question.

Articles 187 and 374 of the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal provided that during the transitional period (1986 to 1991)
a decreasing proportion of the VAT own resources or of the GNP-based financial contributions paid by Spain and Portugal into
the general budget, but not including their share in financing the United Kingdom’s rebate, should be refunded.

With effect from 1988, Spain and Portugal also receive a refund of a proportion of their payments in respect of the additional
resource and their share in financing the United Kingdom’s rebate.

Only the adjustments to the VAT and GNP bases for 1986 to 1991 entered in Chapters 3 1 and 3 2 may lead to positive or
negative refunds to Spain and Portugal.

Council Decision 2003/76/EC of 1 February 2003 establishing the measures necessary for the implementation of the Protocol,
annexed to the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the financial consequences of the expiry of the ECSC Treaty
and on the Research Fund for Coal and Steel (OJ L 29, 5.2.2003, p. 22) stipulates that the Commission shall be entrusted with
winding up the financial operations of the European Coal and Steel Community which are still in progress when the ECSC Treaty
expires.

Pursuant to Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, net revenue from the investment of available assets will constitute revenue in the
general budget of the European Union earmarked for a specific purpose, namely financing research projects in sectors related to
the coal and steel industry by a coal and steel research fund.

The net revenue available for financing research projects in year n+2 appears in the balance sheet of the ECSC in liquidation for
year n, and after the liquidation process has been completed will appear as assets in the balance sheet of the Coal and Steel
Research Fund. This financing mechanism took effect in 2003. Revenue coming from 2005 will be used for research in 2007.
In order to reduce as far as possible the fluctuations that movements in the financial markets could cause in the financing of
research, a smoothing arrangement is applied. The amount of net revenue expected to be available for research in 2007 comes
to EUR 53 875 000.

In accordance with Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, 72,8 % of the fund’s appropriations will be for the steel-related sector
and 27,2 % for the coal-related sector.

In accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation, revenue will be used to provide additional appropriations under Chap-
ter 08 22 of the statement of expenditure in Section III ‘Commission’.

COURT OF AUDITORS

CHAPTER 2 7 — INFORMATION: ACQUISITION, ARCHIVING, PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION (cont’d)

2 7 0 (cont’d)

As part of its audit work, the Court of Auditors has to call on outside experts for technical studies and analyses (chemical, physi-
cal and statistical). The need for appropriations to cover the cost of studies contracted out to experts is justified by the specia-
lised and sometimes unforeseeable nature of the studies in question. Without such appropriations, the Court of Auditors could
be seriously hampered in performing its duties and its independence could be jeopardised. This appropriation also includes the
cost of the audit of the Court of Auditors’ accounts by independent auditors whose report is published in the Official Journal of
the European Union.

plus or deficit, is entered as revenue or expenditure in the budget of the subsequent financial year.

The relevant estimates of such revenue or expenditure are entered in the budget during the budgetary procedure and, where
appropriate, in a letter of amendment submitted pursuant to Article 34 of the Financial Regulation. They are drawn up in accor-
dance with the principles set out in Article 15 of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000.

After the closure of accounts for each financial year, any discrepancy with the estimates is entered in the budget for the fol-
lowing financial year through an amending budget.

A deficit is entered in Article 27 02 01 of the statement of expenditure of this section.

Council Decision 2003/76/EC of 1 February 2003 establishing the measures necessary for the implementation of the Protocol,
annexed to the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the financial consequences of the expiry of the ECSC Treaty
and on the Research Fund for Coal and Steel (OJ L 29, 5.2.2003, p. 22) stipulates that the Commission shall be entrusted with
winding up the financial operations of the European Coal and Steel Community which are still in progress when the ECSC Treaty
expires.

Pursuant to Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, net revenue from the investment of available assets will constitute revenue in the
general budget of the European Union earmarked for a specific purpose, namely financing research projects in sectors related to
the coal and steel industry by a coal and steel research fund.

The net revenue available for financing research projects in year n+2 appears in the balance sheet of the ECSC in liquidation for
year n, and after the liquidation process has been completed will appear as assets in the balance sheet of the Coal and Steel
Research Fund. This financing mechanism took effect in 2003. Revenue coming from 2005 will be used for research in 2007.
In order to reduce as far as possible the fluctuations that movements in the financial markets could cause in the financing of
research, a smoothing arrangement is applied. The amount of net revenue expected to be available for research in 2007 comes
to EUR 53 875 000.

In accordance with Article 4 of Decision 2003/76/EC, 72,8 % of the fund’s appropriations will be for the steel-related sector
and 27,2 % for the coal-related sector.

In accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation, any revenue will be used to provide additional appropriations under
Chapter 08 22 of the statement of expenditure in this section.

This article is intended to record capital repayments and interest payments on special loans and risk capital granted from the
appropriations in Chapters 22 03, 19 08 and 19 01 of the statement of expenditure in this section to Mediterranean third
countries.

The revenue obtained normally exceeds the amounts forecast in the budget because of the interest payments on special loans
which may still be disbursed during the preceding financial year as well as during the current financial year. The interest on
special loans and risk capital is charged from the moment the loans are disbursed; interest on special loans is paid in six-monthly
instalments and interest on risk capital generally in annual instalments.

— removal expenses due to officials and temporary staff obliged to change their place of residence on taking up duty, on trans-

fer to a new place of employment and on finally leaving the institution and resettling elsewhere,

— daily subsistence allowance for officials and temporary staff who furnish evidence that they must change their place of resi-

dence on taking up duty or transferring to a new place of employment,

— transitional costs for officials assigned to posts in the new Member States prior to accession who are requested to remain
in service in these Member States following the accession date, and who will be entitled, exceptionally, to the same finan-
cial and material conditions applied by the Commission before accession, in accordance with Annex X to the Staff Regu-
lations of officials and the Conditions of employment of other servants of the European Communities,

— the cost of any adjustments to remuneration approved by the Council during the financial year.

A general description of the officials’ salaries and other benefits is given in the ‘Working at the Commission’ page of the Euro-
pean Commission’s Directorate-General for Personnel and Administration website.

The Council regulation updating the salary scales of officials and other servants of all the EU institutions, including increments
and allowances, is published every year in the Official Journal (latest in OJ L 337, 22.12.2005, p. 7).

The new posts for 2007 are part of the overall increase of 3 960 new staff over a transitional period from 2003 to 2008 in line

ment (staff, budget, finance, accounts, etc.),

— studies, documentation and training linked to those systems and project management,

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations being made available in

Revenue from contributions from the EFTA States to the Community’s general costs under Articles 76 and 82 of the Agree-
ment on the European Economic Area gives rise to the opening of supplementary appropriations to be entered in the budget
headings concerned, in accordance with the Financial Regulation. The amount of such revenue is estimated at EUR 1 057 000.

Any revenue from the contribution of the Swiss Confederation participating in Community programmes, entered under

of the Financial Regulation.

The amount of assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(e) to (j) of the Financial Regulation is estimated at
EUR 1 190 000.

The appropriation has been placed in the reserve, pending the full implementation of Council Decision 2006/512/EC of 17 July
2006 amending Decision 1999/468/EC laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the
Commission (OJ L 200, 22.7.2006, p. 11).

The following studies should be financed:

— an annual report on child labour in the European Union;

— a study on the impact of job relocation;

— studies on the impact of new technologies in the workplace and on occupational illnesses, such as, for example, the impact

of repetitive movements when performing a task;

— a study on the benefits of removing the barriers to trade and investment between the EU and US, taking into account the

recent OECD study in this area;

— a study on the impact of the single currency on movements in prices of essential goods and bank fees and commission;

— a study on the feasibility of and obstacles to the creation of a federal police force for the European Union;

— a feasibility study on qualified market access/qualified external protection; the European Parliament has already adopted
this approach on a number of occasions. The main idea underlying it is that social and ecological standards should be
applied as parameters for granting or denying access to European markets and for charging different duties and agricul-
tural levies according to the standards established. These levies/duties will be channelled to a fund for rural development in
developing countries and benefit the products for which standards need to be improved;

— a study on the compilation and updating of basic data on European populations; this study should seek to answer the fol-
lowing questions: What population movements are there in the Union? Who moves, why, and from where to where? Who
settles on a long-term basis in a partner country? Are third-country nationals mobile within the Union, or do they remain
in the first host country? How many mixed marriages and mixed births are there, and what categories of persons are most
commonly affected? Are these European citizens registered on electoral rolls in the host country? Do they apply to the
courts or the ombudsman if they have difficulties in asserting their rights as European citizens? What has become of tra-
ditionally nomadic peoples since new members have joined the Union?

— a study on food safety and quality; the study should cover inter alia the cost to business stemming from the introduction
of labelling, the impact on the consumption of Community products both within and outside the European Union, any
changes in consumer perception of Community products in terms of food safety and quality, the initiative’s value for
money, possible promotional measures, and whether products labelled as being of Community origin can maintain their
national or regional identity;

— a study to identify the best strategy for combating avian influenza in the European Union, in order to reduce the risk of its
propagation and transmission to humans; the study should cover inter alia the resources that the European Union can bring
to bear in the event of a pandemic and proposals as to how to enhance those resources, the risk of an animal and human
pandemic, detailed guidelines for measures to be taken by Member States to minimise the risk of propagation, improving
coordination at Community and international levels, enhancing the financial resources to be brought to bear in the event
of an outbreak of the disease either within or outside the European Union, the best means of eradicating and preventing
the disease, and improving monitoring of the disease and ways to prevent a catastrophic situation from arising in the Mem-
ber States;

— a study on desertification; the study should cover inter alia the economic and social repercussions for European regions
affected by desertification, with an appraisal of the current and likely future implications, particularly for the sectors most
at risk, such as farming and tourism, environmental impact, solutions and strategies for combating desertification, identi-
fication of the means of combating desertification that the EU should have at its disposal, and techniques and instruments
for the recovery and use of water resources;

— a study on new means of providing European farmers with support when a disaster occurs.

ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL AFFAIRS

Overall objectives

Action in this policy area aims to ensure the smooth functioning of Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) both inside and outside the European
Union, by advancing economic policy coordination, conducting economic surveillance and providing the Commission and other Community insti-
tutions with high-quality policy assessment and advice on economic and financial questions. This entails monitoring economic developments in
the Union and in third countries, cooperating with international organisations and following international financial issues. Operational activities
include the implementation of EU investment financing programmes on behalf of other Commission departments, in close cooperation with the
EIB, EIF and EBRD and financial market operations (borrowing and lending, treasury management and management of the Guarantee Fund as
well as macro-financial assistance to third countries).

The main objective for 2007 is to strengthen economic governance in the Union aimed at raising the contribution of public finances and other
economic policies to growth and employment in line with the Lisbon Strategy, in addition to securing the core budgetary objectives of sound and
stable public finances, by implementing the revised Stability and Growth Pact. Integration of the new Member States in EMU will continue in 2007,
in the expectation that some of them will participate in the exchange rate mechanism (ERM II) and, subsequently, in the euro zone. Furthermore,
the full integration of Bulgaria and Romania into the Community economic policy coordination framework is to be further corroborated after
their accession in 2007. Also, in 2007, new financial instruments will be implemented, notably for TEN-transport and RTD projects and SMEs, in
order to support the Lisbon Strategy and the European Initiative for Growth.

Remarks

Former Items 01 03 02 01 and 01 03 02 02

This exceptional assistance aims to ease financial constraints on certain third countries experiencing macroeconomic difficulties
characterised by balance of payment deficits and/or serious budgetary imbalances.

It is directly linked to the implementation by the recipient countries of macroeconomic stabilisation and structural adjustment
measures. Community action generally complements that of the International Monetary Fund, coordinated with other bilateral
donors.

The Commission informs the budgetary authority twice a year on the macroeconomic situation of the beneficiary countries and
reports extensively on the implementation of this assistance on a yearly basis.

New item

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on Community financial instruments implemented in the framework of the
Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (2007 to 2013), and to facilitate the access of SMEs to finance.

Poor access to appropriate forms of finance is frequently quoted as a main barrier to entrepreneurship and enterprise innova-
tion. This problem may be exacerbated by new accounting standards which will make banks more sensitive to risk and lead to
a rating culture. The Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme will address persistent recognised market gaps leading to poor
access to equity, venture capital and loans for SMEs, through Community Financial Instruments operated on behalf of the Com-
mission by the European Investment Fund (EIF), the Community’s specialised institution for providing venture capital and guar-
antee instruments for SMEs.

Under the Multiannual Programme for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship, independent evaluations identified the market-based
approach and the implementation via the EIF of these instruments as a best practice. They will therefore be continued and
adapted in the new programme.

The Community Financial Instruments for SMEs will ease the supply of seed and early stage capital for innovative start-ups and
young companies.

The High Growth and Innovative SME Facility (GIF) will share risk and reward with private equity investors providing impor-
tant leverage for the supply of equity to innovative companies. The GIF instruments will increase the supply of development
equity for innovative SMEs in their early stages and in the expansion phase, leveraging ‘follow-on’ capital to help them bring
their products and services to market and continue research and development activities.

The SME Guarantee Facility will continue to provide counter or co-guarantees to guarantee schemes operating in eligible coun-
tries, and direct guarantees to financial intermediaries. It will concentrate on addressing market failures: (i) in the access of SMEs
with growth potential to loans (or loan substitutes such as leasing); (ii) in the provision of microcredit and (iii) in access to equity
or quasi-equity. A (iv) new securitisation window will mobilise additional debt financing for SMEs under appropriate risk-sharing
arrangements with the targeted institutions.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States (1) pursuant to the Agree-
ment on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information,
these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which
constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of
corresponding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this sec-
tion, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in the Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with
Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

This appropriation covers the financing of:

— fees in respect of guarantees extended by the European Investment Fund (EIF) to facilitate the increase in the volume of
lending made, and in the investment risk borne, by the European Investment Bank (EIB), commercial banks, investment
funds or other appropriate intermediaries in connection with their SME operations,

— investment fund holdings in newly created enterprises and high-tech small and medium-sized enterprises,

— part of the costs incurred by European small and medium-sized enterprises in devising and setting up transnational joint

ventures, as well as part of the total amount of the transnational investment.

In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. In this
case, Article 12 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 94/728/EC, Eura-
tom on the system of the Communities’ own resources (OJ L 130, 31.5.2000, p. 1) will apply.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this
section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in the Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with
Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Legal basis

Council Decision 98/347/EC of 19 May 1998 on measures of financial assistance for innovative and job-creating small and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) (OJ L 155, 29.5.1998, p. 43).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of the provision of paid-up shares of the capital subscribed by the Euro-
pean Community.

The European Investment Fund (EIF) was created in 1994. Its founder members are the European Community, represented by
the European Commission, the European Investment Bank (EIB) and a number of financial institutions. The Community mem-
bership to the EIF is determined by Council Decision 1994/375/EC.

The EIF is expected to exhaust its own resources by mid-2007 and will be unable to continue its own resources operations.
Therefore, it has proposed to its Board of Directors to increase the subscribed capital up to 50 % in nominal terms.

Article 3 of Council Decision 1994/375/EC specifies that the position of the Community on a possible capital increase in the
capital of the EIF and on its participation in that increase shall be decided unanimously by the Council, acting on a proposal
from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament. The Commission will prepare a new Council Decision on
Community participation in the capital increase of the EIF, which could possibly be adopted by the Council early 2007. Con-
sequently, the purpose of the proposal for a Council Decision is to approve the 50 % increase in the nominal capital of EIF. It
will be proposed to maintain the level of the Community participation at 30 %.

The intention is to increase the total subscribed share capital from EUR 2 billion to EUR 3 billion and, maintaining the current
paid-in ratio of 20 %, the paid-in capital from EUR 400 million to EUR 600 million. The capital increase of the EIF was endorsed
within the framework of EIB Group’s contribution to growth and jobs which was welcomed by the Ecofin of 14 March 2006
and European Council of 23 and 24 March 2006.

to contract Euratom borrowings in order to contribute to the financing required for improving the degree of safety and effi-
ciency of nuclear power stations in certain non-member countries (OJ L 84, 29.3.1994, p. 41).

It also covers technical and scientific assistance connected with the creation and proper functioning of the future Chemicals
Agency in Helsinki. Appropriations will cover the employment of external staff and their training as well as the initial meetings
of the management board until such expenditure can come under the financial responsibility of the Agency. In order to ensure
a suitable transfer of the competences of the Chemical European Office (an integral part of the Joint Research Centre) to the

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this
section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the candidate countries’ contribution to participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of

Remarks

The aim of this appropriation is to foster the competitiveness of enterprises and in particular small and medium-sized enter-
prises (SMEs), to promote innovation and to accelerate the development of a competitive, innovative, environment-friendly
and inclusive information society, including in the field of e-commerce and eco-innovation.

Action in relation to eco-innovation may include supporting the take-up of environmental technologies and eco-innovative
activities; co-investment in risk capital funds that provide equity also for companies investing in eco-innovation; fostering eco-
innovation networks and clusters, public-private partnerships in eco-innovation and developing innovative business services,
facilitating or promoting eco-innovation; promoting new and integrated approaches on eco-innovation in fields such as envi-
ronmental management and the environment-friendly design of products, processes and services, taking into account their
whole life cycle.

The Community will provide support to projects concerned with the first applications or market replication of innovative or
eco-innovative techniques, products or practices of Community relevance which have already been technically demonstrated
with success but, owing to residual risk, have not yet significantly penetrated the market. These will be designed to promote
their broader utilisation within the participating countries and facilitate their market uptake.

The implemented measures shall be, in particular:

— networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders,

— market replication, projects and other measures to support the take-up of innovation,

— policy analyses, development and coordination with participating countries,

— information sharing, dissemination and awareness raising,

— support to joint actions of Member States or regions,

and other measures encompassed in the Competitiveness and Innovation framework programme.

Pilot project to enhance the competitiveness and sustainability of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and very small enter-
prises (VSEs). The aim is to secure closer cooperation between Member States with a view to laying down principles for an
‘expanded mentoring’ scheme involving the transfer of the knowledge and core competences that are essential for the successful
transfer of business ownership. The pilot project will also seek to ensure that experience is pooled at European level among
young entrepreneurs (owners or managers of SMEs, VSEs and craft undertakings) by means of traineeships and training courses
within SMEs in key or complementary sectors. The relevant representative bodies (chambers of commerce and industry and craft
associations) will be responsible for supporting and promoting this programme. The beneficiaries will be young entrepreneurs
(owners or managers of SMEs, VSEs and craft undertakings) who are in the process of setting up in business or are planning to
transfer their business in the short to medium term.

Remarks

On 21 April 2004, the European Parliament and the Council adopted Decision 2004/387/EC laying down a programme on
interoperable delivery of pan-European eGovernment services to public administrations, businesses and citizens (IDABC). This
programme, which is aimed at promoting the establishment of pan-European eGovernment services and the telecommunica-
tions networks on which they are based, will contribute to the eEurope initiatives (in the context of the Lisbon objectives) and
the related action plans. It will also contribute to eliminating or reducing the obstacles to the free movement of goods, persons,
services and capital, support the creation of a European area of security, justice and freedom, and facilitate the application of the
Community acquis following enlargement.

IDABC falls into two sections: projects of common interest and horizontal measures.

In cooperation with the Member States, the Community must implement projects of common interest in support of sectoral
policies, interinstitutional cooperation and the operation of the European Agencies. The projects cover the preparation, feasi-
bility, development and implementation of pan-European eGovernment services; these (information and interactive) services
must be provided by public administrations to public administrations, businesses and the general public.

In cooperation with the Member States, the Community must also implement horizontal measures to support interoperability.
These will include:

— horizontal (trans-sectoral) pan-European services,

— infrastructure services, identified in response to the general requirements of the projects of common interest aimed at facili-

tating interoperability, this being the essential condition in both technical and economic terms,

— strategic activities and support for the evaluation and promotion of eGovernment services and the promotion of good prac-

tice and cost/benefit analyses,

— greater promotion of the use of open source software by public administrations for citizens,

— services accessible to disabled citizens.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these amounts
derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute
assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of correspond-
ing appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure in this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the candidate countries’ contribution to participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of
the statement of revenue, may give rise to the opening of additional appropriations, pursuant to Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial
Regulation.

Revenue is estimated at EUR 200 000.

Remarks

Former Article 02 02 09

The aim of this initiative is to enhance the visibility of European tourist destinations and create awareness of their quality and
diversity. This will be done through the presentation of awards for social, cultural and environmentally sustainable forms of
tourism development and the creation of a platform for the exchange of good practice at the European level.

The Commission together with a group of public and private experts will establish the theme for each event and the award cri-
teria. For each year, all Member States will have the opportunity to nominate one destination through a competition to be held
at national level.

The project’s aims are to:

— enhance the visibility of European tourist destinations,

— create awareness of the diversity and quality of Europe’s tourist destinations,

— promote all European countries and regions,

— present awards for sustainable forms of tourism,

— reduce congestion, combat seasonality and rebalance tourist flows towards non-traditional destinations,

— create a platform for the exchange of good practices at European level,

— promote networking between prize-winning destinations which could persuade other destinations to adopt sustainable

tourism development models.

Remarks

The aim of the actions carried out in this area is:

— to develop the technologies and knowledge for building capabilities with a civil application focus needed to ensure the secu-
rity of citizens from threats such as terrorism and crime as well as from the impact and consequences of unintended inci-
dents such as natural disasters or industrial accidents; to ensure optimal and concerted use of available and evolving tech-
nologies to the benefit of European security while respecting fundamental human rights; and to stimulate the cooperation
of providers and users for security solutions; through the activities at the same time to reinforce the technology basis of the
European security industry and to strengthen its competitiveness.

— to support a European Space Programme focusing on applications such as GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment
and Security) with benefits for citizens and for the competitiveness of the European space industry. This will contribute to
the development of a European space policy, complementing efforts by Member States and by other key players, including
the European Space Agency.

COMPETITION

Overall objectives

The objective of the Commission in this area is to enforce the competition rules of the Community Treaties in order to ensure that competition
in the European Union market is not distorted, thereby contributing to the welfare of consumers and the competitiveness of the European
economy.

Competition policy aims at protecting consumer welfare and at ensuring a level playing field for companies competing in the market, in particu-
lar by combating obstacles to parallel trade which distort the functioning of the internal market. Undistorted competition is also a key dimension
of the enlargement process and a factor in Europe’s global competitiveness. The single currency calls for an even greater role for competition policy
in order to further dynamically integrate markets. Hence, competition policy, including merger control, cartel dismantling, enforcement of the
antitrust rules, market liberalisation, State aid control and international cooperation between competition authorities is one of the Commission’s
key tasks under the Treaty.

(contractual agents, auxiliaries, seconded national experts, staff from agencies) employed at headquarters to perform the
tasks of the technical assistance office,

— expenditure on temporary support staff at headquarters, limited to EUR 370 000, which corresponds to an estimated four
man-years. This estimate is based on an annual unit cost per man-year, of which 97 % is accounted for by remuneration
for the staff concerned and 3 % by the cost of training, meetings, missions, IT and telecommunications relating to those
staff members,

— expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications directly linked to the achievement of the objec-
tive of the programme or measures coming under this item, plus any other expenditure on technical and administrative
assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service contracts.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on

section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations, according to the same
ratio as between the amount authorised for expenditure on administrative management and the total appropriations entered for
the programme, pursuant to Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

Article 39 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 provides for financial corrections for which any revenue is entered in
Item 6 5 0 0 of the statement of revenue. This revenue may be used to provide additional appropriations in accordance with
Article 18 of the Financial Regulation in specific cases where they are required to cover the risk of corrections adopted earlier
being cancelled or reduced.

Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 provides for financial corrections for the period 2007 to 2013.

Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 lays down the conditions for the repayment of payments on account which does not have the
effect of reducing the contribution from the Structural Funds to the operation concerned. Any revenue arising from the repay-
ment of payments on account entered in Item 6 1 5 7 of the statement of revenue will be used to provide additional appro-
priations in accordance with Articles 18 and 157 of the Financial Regulation, as amended.

Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 lays down the conditions for reimbursement of pre-financing for the period 2007 to 2013.

— expenditure on information technology and telecommunications,

— contracts for the provision of services and studies,

— grants.

Remarks

The action taken by the Community pursuant to Article 158 of the Treaty shall be designed to strengthen the economic and
social cohesion of the enlarged Community in order to promote the harmonious, balanced and sustainable development of the
Community. This action shall be taken with the aid of the Funds, the European Investment Bank (EIB) and other existing finan-
cial instruments. It shall be aimed at reducing the economic, social and territorial disparities which have arisen particularly in
countries and regions whose development is lagging behind, at the speeding-up of economic and social restructuring, and at the
ageing of the population.

The action taken under the Funds shall incorporate, at national and regional level, the Community’s priorities in favour of sus-
tainable development by strengthening growth, competitiveness and employment, and social inclusion, as well as protecting
and improving the quality of the environment.

The ‘Convergence’ objective shall be aimed at speeding up the convergence of the least-developed Member States and regions by
improving conditions for growth and employment through increasing and improving the quality of investment in physical and
human capital, the development of innovation and of the knowledge society, the adaptability to economic and social changes,
the protection and improvement of the environment as well as administrative efficiency. This objective shall constitute the pri-
ority of the Funds.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of the social partners’ participation in the European employment strategy
and the implementation of the Lisbon strategy. It is intended to cover grants for promoting the social dialogue at cross-industry
and sectoral level in accordance with Articles 138 and 139 of the Treaty. The appropriations will therefore be used to finance
consultations, meetings, negotiations and other operations designed to achieve these objectives.

In addition, as the heading suggests, this appropriation can cover support for industrial relations measures, in particular those
designed to develop expertise and exchange of information on a European basis.

It also covers measures to promote the actions set out in the Commission Communication on a framework for the promotion
of employee financial participation (COM(2002) 364 final).

Pilot projects intended to develop codes of conduct and social labels in order to guarantee respect for fundamental social and
employment rights, with the participation of companies, trade unions and NGOs that defend fundamental social rights will also
be eligible.

This appropriation may also cover funding of measures involving representatives of the social partners in the candidate coun-
tries. It is also intended to promote equal participation of women in the decision-making bodies of both trade unions and
employers’ organisations. These last two components are of a horizontal nature.

Former Article 04 02 12

This appropriation is intended, for completion of the internal market and implementation of the European employment strat-
egy, to cover the implementation and operation of the EURES network.

This network is aimed at developing cooperation between the Commission and the Member States, and in particular their
employment services, with a view to:

— the provision of placement, advice and information services for workers as regards employment in another Member State

and for employers wishing to recruit in another Member State,

— the exchange of job vacancies and applications at Community level and across borders,

— the exchange of information between Member States concerning labour-market trends and living and working conditions.

The EURES network may include special cooperation and service structures, at the initiative of border regions.

The EURES network has close operational links with the relevant activities in the Commission DGs for Education and Culture
and Justice, Freedom and Security, such as Europass and Leonardo.

Further studies will be conducted to explore the feasibility of a European approach to the certification of non-formal
qualifications.

The network will ensure that the principle of freedom of movement is respected and that it operates in a transparent and non-
discriminatory fashion, with particular regard to access to employment for Community nationals in a country other than that
of their origin.

This appropriation covers measures that are essential to the smooth running of the EURES network, in particular the following
support measures:

— subsidies for national and cross-border support activities organised by EURES partners,

— initial and further training of EURES advisers in the Member States,

— contacts between the EURES advisers and cooperation between government employment services, including those of can-

didate countries,

— promotion of EURES among firms and the general public,

— measures to help remove mobility obstacles, particularly in the field of work-related social security,

— development of multilingual computerised systems consisting of the two databases (‘job vacancies and applications’ and

‘living and working conditions’), as well as maintenance and expansion of an Internet site,

— development of special structures for cooperation and services in border areas, pursuant to Article 17(b) of Regulation (EEC)

No 1612/68, as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2434/92,

— participation in the creation of a single site containing information on mobility in Europe, providing access to job vacan-
cies and information on job offers (with links to public and private employment services), jobseekers, living and working
conditions, education and training, and student and teacher mobility. This portal should also address the needs of nationals
from third countries, in particular from countries coming under the EU’s Neighbourhood Policy.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this
section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

This appropriation is also to be used to set up and run specific cooperation and service structures for border areas.

This heading is also intended to fund measures to provide information for seasonal or short-term workers in Member States
other than their countries of origin.

This appropriation is intended to fund initiatives to promote active ageing, including access to the labour market in accordance
with the goals of:

— the Lisbon European Council of 23 and 24 March 2000, which set up the strategic goal for the next decade of becoming
the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world capable of sustainable economic growth with
more and better jobs and greater social cohesion,

— the Barcelona European Council of 15 and 16 March 2002, which called for a progressive increase in the effective average

age at which people stop working in the European Union,

— the Stockholm European Council of 23 and 24 March 2001, which called upon the Council and the Commission to report

jointly on how to increase labour force participation and promote active ageing,

— Article 2 of the EC Treaty, which calls for a high level of employment, the raising of the standard of living and quality of

life as well as economic and social cohesion and solidarity among Member States,

— Council Decision 2003/578/EC of 22 July 2003 on guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States (OJ L 197,
5.8.2003, p. 13), which recalls the Lisbon and Stockholm targets and the demographic challenge for the employment rate
for older women and men. Guideline 5 specifically refers to increasing the labour supply and promoting active ageing,

(OJ L 197, 5.8.2003, p. 22), which identifies certain actions to be taken with regard to the labour supply and active ageing.

It is also intended to finance measures to encourage the establishment of exchange programmes for the elderly through spe-
cialised organisations tasked with developing, inter alia, resources for mobility and adapting infrastructures, including within
travel, in accordance with the contents of the:

— European Parliament resolution of 11 April 2002 on the second United Nations World Assembly on Ageing (Madrid, 8
to 12 April 2002) (OJ C 127 E, 29.5.2003, p. 675), which stressed the importance of promoting programmes encouraging
mobility for the elderly, and in particular paragraphs 13 and 14 thereof,

— European Parliament resolution of 15 December 2000 on the Commission communication ‘Towards a Europe for all ages

— Promoting prosperity and intergenerational solidarity’ (OJ C 232, 17.8.2001, p. 381).

High quality health services and increased longevity in EU countries are shifting focus in economic policy from social protec-
tion issues to the involvement of elderly people in different activities. Preparatory actions are needed to find the most efficient
policy tools for solving this problem.

Pursuant to Article 145 of the EC Treaty, the European Parliament can ask the Commission to draw up reports on problems
concerning the social situation. The Commission is called on to produce each year a report on the social situation, including
specific chapters on demographic trends (especially their interaction with the labour market and social protection).

In particular, the following aims will be pursued:

— analysis of the impact of population ageing in the framework of a society for all ages, in terms of trends in needs, behav-

iour and flanking policies, including research on elderly minorities/migrants, as well as on ageing and ethnicity,

— analysis of the impact of demographic change on EU and Member State policies, measures and programmes, and formu-
lation of recommendations for adjustments to economic and other policies, measures and programmes at European and
national level in order to prevent the ageing of society from having a negative impact,

— analysis of the links between the family unit and demographic trends, identification of the existing relations between tech-
nological development (impact on communication technologies, geographical and occupational mobility) and the conse-
quences for households and society in general,

— analysis of trends in social objectives (in terms of safeguarding acquired rights or extending them) regarding both goods

and services, taking account of demographic trends and redefinition of the relationships between generations,

Remarks

Former Article 04 02 16

In its communication of 7 April 2000 (COM(2000) 196 final), the Commission refers to the need to motivate regional and local
players to take part in the European employment strategy. The projects financed serve to encourage cooperation, improve
knowledge, develop exchanges of information, promote best practices and innovative approaches at local and regional level as
part of the European employment strategy.

The purpose of these activities is to make local and regional authorities and other key local partners, including representatives
of the mutual and non-profit sector, aware of the scope for measures conducive to implementing the employment guidelines at
local and regional level and the interlinking thereof at regional and local levels.

They include in particular:

— promoting publicity work for the European employment strategy and its implementation at local and regional levels, stud-
ies on how mutual and non-profit institutions can be supported at local and regional levels, studies on how to improve
transnational cooperation and the dissemination of proven practices in implementing local employment initiatives and
studies on what measures can be taken to create incentives for local and regional partners to contribute towards imple-
menting the European employment strategy,

— enhancing the employment potential of the ‘third system’‚ and financing innovative preparatory actions, not least at local

level, in the areas of social and neighbourhood services, the environment and the arts.

Particular focus is to be on the gender aspects of employment policy.

In connection with calls for proposals under this article, no restrictions on access to funding which require cross-border part-
nerships to comprise partners from more than three Member States are permitted.

This appropriation is intended to cover the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF), to enable the Community to pro-
vide support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns where these redun-
dancies have a significant adverse impact on the regional or local economy.

The maximum amount of expenditure from the Fund shall be EUR 500 million per year. According to the conclusions of the
European Council of 15 and 16 December 2005 and in line with the Interinstitutional Agreement on budgetary discipline and
sound financial management of 17 May 2006, no specific financial provision for the Fund will be made in the multinannual
financial framework; based on the above guidelines, the Commission proposes to determine the level of ‘underspends’ relevant
to the financing of the EGF in any given year (year n) in the following manner:

(1) the margin left available under the global ceiling for commitment appropriations of the previous year, i.e. the difference
between total commitment appropriations in the multiannual financial framework and total commitment appropriations
entered in the budget of the year n – 1;

(2) if the previous amount is not sufficient, cancelled commitment appropriations of the previous two years. Funds will be mobi-
lised via an amending budget, if and when needed, with reference to the amount determined as laid down above. To stream-
line the decision-making process, the Commission will submit proposals in ’batches’, as appropriate, during the budgetary
year.

AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT

Overall objectives

The objectives of the common agricultural policy (CAP) derive directly from the Treaty and are, in particular, to stabilise markets, ensure a fair
standard of living in the farming community and guarantee security of supplies.

The CAP has been reformed a number of times since it was first introduced, most recently with the sugar reform at the end of 2005. The key aim
of these reforms, as part of Agenda 2000, was to shift the slant of the farm economy towards the market in order to make the agricultural sector
more competitive. Reflecting the multipurpose application of agricultural activity, the CAP must also be fully compatible with sustainable devel-
opment, in particular by promoting environmentally friendly production methods and the effective use of resources. Rural development, the sec-
ond pillar of the CAP, aims at enhancing the competitiveness of rural areas and preserving the environment and rural heritage in order to secure
the future of rural areas and promote job maintenance and creation.

2007 will be a year of consolidation following the CAP reforms, of implementation of the Council decisions on the rural development framework
2007 to 2013 and the new CAP financial regulation as well as of the enlargement to Romania and Bulgaria.

Sustainable agriculture and soil conservation through simplified cultivation techniques

Remarks

The United Nations Environment Programme contends that more than a quarter of the planet’s agricultural land has become
degraded since the Second World War. Between 10 and 15 million hectares are currently lost each year.

In Europe, soil degradation and erosion is probably the most significant environmental problem caused by conventional agri-
culture, seriously affecting close to 157 m ha (16 % of Europe, i.e. almost three times the total area of France). The average soil
erosion rate in Europe (17 tonnes per ha per year) is much higher than the average soil formation rate (1 tonne per ha per year).
Most European Union countries are affected by this problem. In the Mediterranean regions, soil erosion is highly pronounced
and may affect up to 50 to 70 % of agricultural land. Intensification of conventional agriculture (increased mechanisation
and ploughing) over the last 50 years has contributed to this trend, increasing the risk of desertification in most vulnerable
regions. Erosion has a major economic impact on the agricultural land concerned, but also on local public infrastructure because
of the cost of maintaining water systems and water treatment.

There is reduced biodiversity in conventional agriculture because soil left bare for a lengthy period no longer provides food and
shelter for wildlife at critical times. However, production systems which leave surface residues help to restore and maintain vari-
ous types of wildlife (e.g. birds and small mammals).

Sustainable agriculture is a set of techniques designed to allow farming to take place on a lasting basis from a physical, social,
economic and environmental perspective.

Simplified cultivation techniques are the core component; they are techniques aimed at better soil conservation (or conserva-
tion agriculture). Conservation agriculture refers to a set of soil management practices which minimise alteration of the com-
position, structure and natural biodiversity of soil, safeguarding it against erosion and degradation. These techniques combine
surface working techniques, mulch sowing, direct sowing, non-incorporation of crop residues and vegetation cover in forestry
(spontaneous vegetation or vegetation resulting from the sowing of appropriate species).

Over and above the purely environmental aspect, the economic aspect of conservation agriculture techniques is another major
factor to be taken into account. Cultivation within conventional agriculture calls for a high level of machinery investment and
maintenance, a high level of fossil energy consumption and considerable working time by comparison with conservation agri-
culture. For annual growing without ploughing, for instance, fuel savings over conventional systems are put at three to five litres
per ha. In general, conservation agriculture reduces energy consumption by about 15 to 50 %, increasing production per energy
unit by 25 to 100 %.

Rural development planning action for 2007 to 2013 affords a unique opportunity to make headway with these techniques.
The pilot project could cover know-how dissemination activities, this being a fundamental component of the project. One of
the basic objectives is to foster knowledge of these techniques so that future European legislation can be easily applied.

Remarks

This item figures in the budget only for the purpose of comparison of agricultural expenditure with earlier years. It was previ-
ously intended to cover amounts recovered following irregularities related to rural development measures financed by the
EAGGF Guarantee section, which is now recorded as assigned revenue under Item 6 7 0 2 of the general statement of revenue
according to Articles 18 and 180 of the Financial Regulation.

Rural development financed by the EAGGF Guidance Section — Completion of earlier programme

Remarks

Article 39 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 provides for financial corrections, any revenue from which is entered in Item 6 5 0 0
of the statement of revenue. That revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations, in accordance with
Article 18 of the Financial Regulation, in specific instances where they are necessary to cover risks of cancellation or of reduc-
tions in corrections previously decided upon.

Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 determines the conditions for repayment of an advance without having the effect of reducing
the contribution from the Structural Funds towards the assistance concerned. Any revenue from the repayment of advances,
which is entered in Item 6 1 5 7 of the statement of revenue, will give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accor-
dance with Articles 18 and 157 of the Financial Regulation.

Measures to combat fraud are funded from Article 24 02 01.

Remarks

In conformity with Articles 18 and 180 of the Financial Regulation, revenue received on Article 6 7 0 of the general statement
of revenue will allow the provision of additional appropriations.

This appropriation is intended to cover the settlement of commitments entered in respect of the Community programme on
the conservation, characterisation, collection and utilisation of genetic resources in agriculture.

This appropriation is to be used as a matter of priority for the sustainable use and further development of biodiversity through
the interaction of farmers, established nongovernmental organisations in the area and public and private-sector institutes. Con-
sumer awareness in this field should also be fostered.

Remarks

New item

Twenty per cent of this appropriation will be placed in the reserve. The Commission (and the Council) will communicate to
Parliament between the first and the second reading how it intends to cater for breaches of Parliament’s budgetary prerogatives
when laying down annual budgets following the recent proposal on voluntary modulation (COM(2006) 241) and whether this
proposal on voluntary modulation, if applied by Member States, could have consequences for the classification of expenditure
as defined in Annex III to the interinstitutional agreement of 17 May 2006, since it involves a reduction in compulsory expen-
diture and an increase in non-compulsory expenditure with a possible impact on the calculation of the MRI. Furthermore, the
Commission should explain why it feels that its proposal is in line with its commitment, as expressed in Declaration No. 10
annexed to the interinstitutional agreement of 17 May 2006, concerning respect for the basic rules governing rural develop-
ment policy and, moreover, whether it feels it has managed the risk ofcompetition being distorted if voluntary modulation is
applied by Member States.

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of the 2007 to 2013 rural development programmes funded by the Euro-
pean Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD). Part of the appropriation is intended for financing the management of
the Natura 2000 network.

Remarks

Since expenditure on staff and buildings is included in the appropriations entered in Items XX 01 01 01 and XX 01 03 01, the
Commission subsidy, together with the Agency’s own revenue, is intended to cover expenditure incurred by the Agency in its
activities.

At its 23rd session on 1 and 2 February 1960, the Euratom Council proposed unanimously that the Commission postpone not
only the levying of the charge (intended to cover the operating expenditure of the Euratom Supply Agency) but also the actual
introduction of the said charge. Since then a subsidy has been included in the budget to balance the revenue side against the
Agency expenditure figures shown in the statement of estimates.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure incurred by the Commission for collecting and processing information of
all kinds needed for the analysis, definition, promotion, monitoring, evaluation and implementation of the Community’s com-
mon transport policy, including its extension to third countries, technical assistance, specific training and promotion of the com-
mon transport policy, including the establishment and implementation of the guidelines for the trans-European transport net-
work referred to in the Treaty.

Special efforts must be made to integrate sustainable development into the transport sector (Article 6 of the Treaty establishing
the European Community) such as reducing CO2 emissions and climate change (Kyoto Protocol) and implementing a more far-
reaching sustainable transport policy in sensitive regions.

The measures to be funded will include:

— specific studies and grants for the preparation and evaluation of measures aiming at completion, management and devel-
opment of the single transport market, including extension thereof beyond the Community, with particular attention being
paid to the removal of cross-border bottlenecks in areas in which natural barriers hamper the free movement of goods and
persons,

— preparation of the legislation required for each mode of transport, both on access to the market and on the technical, social

and fiscal rules, and for the carriage of goods and passengers,

— expenditure on training, assistance and support for the national administrations in the new Member States after accession

in order to allow transposition and application of the Community rules,

Remarks

New article

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on implementation of a programme to promote alternatives to interna-
tional road haulage, designated ‘Marco Polo II’.

The programme Marco Polo II proposes five kinds of measures to achieve its objectives:

— modal transfer actions, to transfer, in the short term, an important share of road traffic to other less saturated transport

modes,

— catalyst actions, that enable structural market barriers to be overcome through the implementation of new innovative

services,

— common learning actions, with a view to improving cooperation, share of know-how and knowledge development in the

logistics industry,

— actions to provide high-quality logistic services based on short sea shipping, that will be comparable to motorways and

therefore called ‘motorways of the sea’,

— traffic avoidance actions, that will involve an active role for manufacturing industry and logistics systems within one coher-

ent strategy to develop sustainable operations.

The transport infrastructure networks of the newest Member States are not at the moment adequate to serve the increased post-
enlargement trade flows; in such cases intermodal transport solutions constitute the best response and thus there is huge scope
for Marco Polo II as a continuation and strengthening of the successful Marco Polo I programme.

The support for commercial action in the market for freight transport services is different from the support given through
research and development programmes and the trans-European network programme. Marco Polo II will foster modal shift
projects in all segments of the freight market, not only in combined transport.

Remarks

New article

This appropriation is intended for the establishment and development of the trans-European transport network (TEN), which is
held to be a key policy for the proper functioning of the internal market and for economic and social cohesion (Articles 154
to 156 of the Treaty establishing the European Community). This contribution takes the form of co-financing of projects of
common interest identified in the Community guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network (Deci-
sion No 1692/96/EC).

The aim is:

— to help define projects of common interest,

— to speed up the Member States’ implementation of trans-European transport network projects of common interest,

— to overcome the financial obstacles which may hamper the start-up phase of a project, particularly by means of feasibility

studies,

— to encourage the participation of private capital in project funding, as well as public/private partnerships,

— to ensure better financial arrangements for projects, minimising the use of public funding, thanks to flexible means of

intervention.

Part of this appropriation is intended to promote cooperation in the Baltic Sea regions and the Northern Dimension projects.

Co-financing of the deployment of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) must be a high priority.

Special attention must be paid to cross-border rail projects that contribute to better connections between old and new Member
States and the reunification of Europe.

Funds for 2007 have been placed in the reserve until a satisfactory agreement is reached with the Council and/or Commission
on how to maintain political control over the allocation of funds.

New article

This appropriation is intended to cover the costs of economic and technical feasibility studies, preparatory and evaluation stud-
ies and interest-rate subsidies, loan guarantees or direct subsidies, in duly justified cases, for projects of common interest iden-
tified under the guidelines adopted by the Council.

The objective of this measure is to contribute towards the competitive operation of the internal energy market and the strength-
ening of the security of energy supply through the establishment of the network infrastructure required, and in particular
through the establishment and development of trans-European energy networks, promoting the interconnection and interop-
erability of the national networks and access to such networks and extending them beyond the Community.

All proposals will be subject to environmental impact assessment and local consultation.

TITLE 06 — ENERGY AND TRANSPORT

CHAPTER 06 06 — RESEARCH RELATED TO ENERGY AND TRANSPORT (cont’d)

Remarks

These remarks are applicable to all the budget headings in this chapter.

These appropriations will be used for the seventh framework programme of the European Community for research, techno-
logical development and demonstration activities, which covers the period 2007 to 2013.

It will be carried out in order to pursue the general objectives described in Article 163 of the Treaty, in order to contribute to
the creation of a society of knowledge, based on the European Research Area, i.e. supporting transnational cooperation at all
the levels throughout the EU, raising the dynamism, creativity and the excellence of European research to the limits of knowl-
edge, strengthening the human resources of research and of technology in Europe at the quantitative and qualitative level and
the capacities of research and of innovation in the whole of Europe and ensuring optimum use of it.

It will be organised in programmes, corresponding to four major objectives of European research policy: transnational coop-
eration on topics defined in relation to the policies (cooperation), research proposed by the research workers themselves, on
the initiative of the research workers’ Community (ideas), individual research workers’ support (people), and the support of the
capacities of research (capacities).

2007 constitutes the first year of effective implementation of this programme, the objectives of which rest on the carrying out
of the sixth framework programme for the creation of the European Research Area, and giving them an extension while tend-
ing to the development of the economy and of the society of knowledge in Europe.

Also entered against these articles and items are the costs of high-level scientific and technological meetings, conferences, work-
shops and seminars of European interest organised by the Commission, the funding of high-level scientific and technological
analyses and evaluations carried out on behalf of the Community to investigate new areas of research suitable for Community
action, inter alia, in the context of the European Research Area, and measures to monitor and disseminate the results of the pro-
grammes, including measures under previous framework programmes.

These appropriations also cover administrative expenditure, including expenditure on staff, information, publications, admin-
istrative and technical operation, and certain other expenditure items relating to internal infrastructure linked with the achieve-
ment of the objective of the measure of which they form an integral part, including the action and measures necessary for prepa-
ration and monitoring of the Community’s RTD strategy.

The possibility of third countries or organisations from third countries taking part in European cooperation in the field of sci-
entific and technical research is envisaged in the case of some of these projects. Any financial contribution will be entered in
Item 6 0 1 3 of the statement of revenue and may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with
Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with
Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Additional appropriations will be made available under Article 06 06 04.

New article

Efforts will focus on the following actions:

— renewable energies and energy efficiency (continuity from FP 6),

— activities in the new priority for clean coal technologies.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this
section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Approximately two thirds of the budget under this theme is to go towards research conducted under the three renewable energy
activities and energy efficiency and savings.

lishing the European Community).

This appropriation is intended to cover action aimed at:

— developing means of transport and transport systems for all surface modes (rail, road and inland waterways) which are envi-

ronmentally friendly and competitive (including in the context of urban mobility),

— implementing the technological component of the single European sky policy (SESAR),

— rebalancing and integrating the different modes of transport,

— making rail, road and maritime transport safer, more efficient and more competitive,

— supporting European transport policy,

— developing the European Satellite Navigation System (Galileo) in view of the next technology generation.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this
section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover financial contributions to technical assistance projects in accordance with Article 5 of
Regulation (EC) No 1655/2000 pertaining to the third thematic component of LIFE III, ‘LIFE-third countries’. Actions covered
will support the establishment of capacities and administrative structures needed in the environmental sector in third countries.
The financial framework for the implementation of the extension in the period 2005 to 2006 is set at EUR 317 200 000. The
allocation of available appropriations for accompanying measures is limited to 6 % for the period 1 January 2005 to 31 Decem-
ber 2006. The countries eligible to participate in the LIFE-third countries programme are Albania, Algeria, Bosnia and Herze-
govina, Croatia, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, the West Bank and Gaza Strip and the Baltic
shoreline of Russia (Kaliningrad and St Petersburg regions). The European Union and bordering countries acting together to
address environmental problems will be far more effective than individual national actions; many such issues being of a tran-
snational nature. The activities undertaken aim at contributing to the development and strengthening of national environmen-
tal policies and action programmes with the objective of increasing environmental protection in countries bordering on the
Mediterranean and the Baltic Sea, other than candidate central and east European countries who have signed association agree-
ments with the European Union.

Support to actions promoting cooperation and coordination between several countries (European Union and bordering coun-
tries) is particularly targeted by the multiannual programme.

Irrespective of the beneficiary, no administrative expenditure against this article is authorised.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover financial contributions to actions contributing to the implementation, updating and
development of Community environmental policy and legislation, including the integration of the environment into other poli-
cies, thereby contributing to sustainable development. In particular, LIFE+ shall support the implementation of the ‘Sixth Envi-
ronmental Action Programme’, including the thematic strategies, and finance measures and projects with European added value
in Member States (through indirect centralised management via a network of national agencies and through multi-stakeholder
cooperation and capacity building facilitated by other institutions and organisations with expertise in environmental policy con-
sultation and implementation), including transboundary projects, and at Community level (direct centralised management by
the Commission).

LIFE+ will support projects and measures of Community interest, i.e. which make a significant contribution to the achievement
of the general objective of LIFE+, and relating to the three following strands: nature and biodiversity, environmental policy and
governance, and information and communication.

Projects financed at national level will be selected and managed by national Agencies on the basis of national annual work pro-
grammes approved by the Commission, these annual programmes being established on the basis of multiannual strategic pro-
grammes (2007 to 2010 and 2011 to 2013) drawn up by the Commission.

The projects financed within the framework of national programmes shall be:

— of Community interest by making a significant contribution to the achievement of the general objective of LIFE+,

— technically and financially coherent, feasible and provide value for money.

In addition, and to ensure European added value and avoid the financing of recurring activities, the projects selected within the
framework of national programmes shall meet one of the following criteria:

— best practice measures and projects or demonstration measures and projects

for

the implementation of

Directive 79/409/EEC or Directive 92/43/EEC, or

— innovative measures and projects or demonstration measures and projects relating to Community environmental objec-
tives, including the development or dissemination of best practice techniques, know how or technologies; or awareness
raising campaigns and special training for agents involved in fire prevention interventions, or

— measures and projects for the development and implementation of Community objectives relating to the broad-based, har-

monised, comprehensive and long-term monitoring of forests and environmental interactions.

A maximum 2 % of the Community contribution to a Member State’s national annual work programme for the related year
may be used to cofinance the staff costs of this Member State’s national agency(ies).

The projects and measures financed or co-financed both at national and Community level may be implemented through grants
or procurement procedures and may consist of:

— studies, surveys, modelling and scenario building,

— monitoring, including the monitoring of forests,

— capacity building assistance,

— training, workshops and meetings, including the training of agents participating in forest fire prevention initiatives,

— networking and best practice platforms,

— information and communication actions, including awareness raising campaigns and, in particular, public awareness cam-

paigns on forest fires,

— demonstration of innovative policy approaches, technologies, methods and instruments,

— specifically for the nature and biodiversity component: site and species management and site planning, including the
improvement of the ecological coherence of the Natura 2000 network, the monitoring of conservation status, including
— but not limited to — setting up procedures and structures for such monitoring, the development and implementation
of species and habitats conservation action plans, the extension of the Natura 2000 network in marine areas and, in lim-
ited cases, the purchase of land.

In addition to the categories above, projects and measures supported at Community level may consist of:

— support to certain operational activities of non-governmental organisations that are primarily active in protecting and

enhancing the environment at European level,

— developing and maintaining networks and information and computerised systems directly linked to the implementation of
Community environmental policy and legislation. The expenditure covered will include costs of development, mainte-
nance, operations and support (hardware, software and services) of information and communication systems. It will also
cover cost of project management, quality control, security, documentation and training linked to the implementation of
theses systems.

This appropriation is intended to cover a subsidy to the European Environment Agency in Copenhagen. The mission of the
Agency is to provide the Community and the Member States with objective, reliable and comparable information on the envi-
ronment at European level, thus enabling them to take the requisite measures to protect the environment, to assess the results
of such measures and to inform the public.

The key challenges of the Agency are to:

— further develop and maintain Eionet (the European environment information observation network),

— build the European Reference Centre for Environmental Information,

— develop an integrated monitoring-to-reporting process,

— identify emerging issues of environmental importance,

— directly support the framing and development of environmental policies,

— support the implementation and evaluation of environmental policies, including assessment of effectiveness and progress

with integration of environment into sectoral policies,

— support the environment chapter on the enlargement process: increasing geographical coverage and cooperation in Europe.

— projects, studies, surveys, modelling, scenario-building and contingency planning, capacity building assistance; demonstra-
tion projects; technology transfer; awareness and dissemination actions; communication actions; provision of adequate
means and equipment and monitoring assessment and evaluation.

— IT system facilitating the exchange of information with Member States during emergencies — CECIS (Common Emergency
Communication and Information System) — to improve efficiency and to enable also the exchange of ‘EU restricted’ infor-
mation. This will cover the costs of development, maintenance, operations and support (hardware, software and services)
of information and communication systems. It will also cover cost of project management, quality control, security, docu-
mentation and training linked to the implementation of theses systems.

The rapid response and preparedness instrument for major emergencies builds upon the existing instruments (the Community
mechanism and the Community action programme) and aims at supporting and complement the efforts of Member States in
the event of major disaster and building a more robust rapid reaction capability.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, the EFTA
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-

RESEARCH

Overall objectives

The Commission’s policy initiatives to achieve the European Research Area are devised, developed and followed up within this policy area.

European research contributes to attaining the objectives of the other Community policies and, in return, promotes the incorporation of research
policy needs in these policies.

Community actions required to achieve the European Research Area are devised and implemented within this policy area, in particular the research
and technological development framework programmes.

This domain contributes to implementing the Lisbon strategy for employment, international competitiveness, economic reform and social cohe-
sion in the European Union, in particular in connection with the establishment of an area of education, training, research and innovation.

COMMISSION
TITLE 08 — RESEARCH

Remarks

These remarks apply to all the budget headings in this title (with the exception of Chapter 08 22).

These appropriations will be used in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1906/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 Decem-
ber 2006 laying down the rules for the participation of undertakings, research centres and universities in actions under the Seventh Framework
Programme and for the dissemination of research results (2007 to 2013) (OJ L 391, 30.12.2006, p. 1) and Council Regulation (Euratom)
No 1908/2006 of 19 December 2006 laying down the rules for the participation of undertakings, research centres and universities in action under
the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community and for the dissemination of research results (2007 to 2011)
(OJ L 400, 30.12.2006, p. 1).

For all appropriations under this title the same definition of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as is used for the horizontal SME-specific
programmes within the same framework programme will be applicable. That definition reads as follows: ’An eligible SME is a legal entity that
complies with the SME definition set out in Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC and is not a research centre, research institute, contract
research organisation or consultancy firm’. All research activities conducted pursuant to the seventh framework programme will be carried out in
compliance with fundamental ethical principles (in accordance with Article 6(1) of Decision No 1982/2006/EC of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological
development and demonstration activities (2007 to 2013) (OJ L 412, 30.12.2006, p. 1)), including animal welfare requirements. This will include,
in particular, the principles laid down in Article 6 of the Treaty on European Union and in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European
Union. Particular account will be taken of the need to step up efforts to enhance the participation and role of women in science and research.

Also entered against these articles and items are the costs of high-level scientific and technological meetings, conferences, workshops and semi-
nars of European interest organised by the Commission, the funding of high-level scientific and technological analyses and evaluations carried out
on behalf of the Community to investigate new areas of research suitable for Community action, inter alia, in the context of the European Research
Area, and measures to monitor and disseminate the results of the programmes, including measures under previous framework programmes.

These appropriations also cover administrative expenditure, including expenditure on staff, whether covered by the Staff Regulations or not, infor-
mation, publications, administrative and technical operation, and certain other expenditure items relating to internal infrastructure linked with
the achievement of the objective of the measure of which they form an integral part, including the action and initiatives necessary for preparation
and monitoring of the Community’s RTD strategy.

The participation of third countries or organisations from third countries in European cooperation in the field of scientific and technical research
is possible in the case of some of these projects. Any financial contribution will be entered in Items 6 0 1 3 and 6 0 1 6 of the statement of rev-
enue and may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from third parties sharing the cost of projects with the Community (firms in European Free Trade Association Member States, indus-
trial consortia, etc.) entered in Article 6 0 1 5 of the statement of revenue may give rise to additional appropriations being made available in accor-
dance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the state-
ment of revenue, may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Any revenue from the contribution from outside bodies for participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 3 of the statement of
revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Additional appropriations will be made available under Article 08 21 04.

In order to be able to meet the goal of 15 % SME participation in the projects financed by these appropriations, as laid down in the regulation,
more specific action is needed. Qualifying projects under the SME Specific Programmes should be made eligible for funding under the thematic
programme when they fulfil the necessary (thematic) requirements.

The actions carried out in the area of health are intended to improve the health of the European public and boost the competi-
tiveness of industries and companies linked to the health sector in Europe, while at the same time addressing world health prob-
lems, including new epidemics. The emphasis will be on translational research (transposing basic findings into clinical applica-
tions), developing and validating new treatments, identifying ways of promoting health and preventing illness, diagnostic tools
and technologies for making diagnoses, as well as sustainable and effective healthcare systems. Special attention will be given
to communicating research findings and to the initiation of a dialogue with civil society, in particular patient groups, at as early
a stage as possible in new developments produced by biomedical and genetics research.

Funding may be given to clinical research on many diseases (e.g. cancer, cardiovascular diseases, auto-immunity and infectious
diseases, allergic diseases, epilepsy, trauma, rheumatic diseases, respiratory system diseases and mental and neurological dis-
eases, in particular those linked with ageing, such as osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases).

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-

New article

The actions carried out in this area are intended to help establish the integrated scientific and technological bases needed to
develop a European ‘Knowledge-based bioeconomy’ by bringing together science, industry and other stakeholders. Three pillars
support this approach: (1) Sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest, and aquatic envi-
ronments; (2) Fork to farm: food, health and well being, and (3) Life sciences and biotechnology for sustainable non-food prod-
ucts and processes This way new and emerging research opportunities can be exploited that address social and economic chal-
lenges, such as the growing demand for environmentally friendly systems of production and distribution of safer, healthier and
higher quality food in line with consumer requirements and control of food-related risks, relying in particular on biotechnology
tools, as well as health risks associated with environmental changes.

This appropriation is also intended to fund the development and improvement of analysis methods (e.g. residue analysis in food
and feedingstuffs).

Environmental research within the seventh framework programme will be implemented through the Environment (including
Climate Change) theme. The objective is to promote sustainable management of the natural and human environment and its
resources by advancing our knowledge of the interactions between the biosphere, ecosystems and human activities, and devel-
oping new technologies, tools and services, in order to address in an integrated way global environmental issues. Emphasis will
be put on prediction of climate, ecological, earth and ocean systems changes, on tools and technologies, for monitoring, pre-
vention and mitigation of environmental pressures and risks including on human health and for the sustainability of the natural
and man-made environment.

Research on this theme will contribute to the implementation of international commitments and initiatives such as Global Earth
Observation (GEO). In addition, it will support the research needs arising from the existing and emerging EU legislation and
policies, associated thematic strategies and the action plans on environmental technologies and on environment and health.
Research will also contribute technological developments that will improve the market positioning of European enterprises, in
particular of SMEs, in areas such as environmental technologies.

New article

For the seventh framework programme (FP7) for the period 2007 to 2013, an integrated approach has been proposed which
links all transport modes (aeronautics, road, rail, waterborne), addresses the socio-economic and technological dimensions of
research and knowledge development, and encapsulates both innovation and the policy framework. It is in line with the White
Paper on transport and the updated versions of the strategic research agendas of the four technology platforms in the field of
transport. Based on technological advances, the general objective is to develop integrated, ‘greener’, ‘smarter’ and safer pan-
European transport systems for the benefit of the citizen and society, respecting the environment and natural resources; and
securing and further developing the competitiveness and the leading role attained by the European industries in the global
market.

The objective of RSFF is to foster private investment in research by improving access to debt financing for participants in large
European research projects. RSFF will enable the European Investment Bank to expand, directly and indirectly (via its network
of intermediary banks), its portfolio of loans to participants in such projects.

RSFF will contribute to the implementation of the Lisbon strategy, in particular to the achievement of the 3 % investment in
research objective, by helping overcome market deficiencies, increasing the total amount of funds available for research and
diversifying its sources.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these

Europe needs to become more attractive to researchers, in order to increase Europe’s capacity and performance in research and
technological development and to consolidate and further develop the European Research Area. Against the background of
growing competition at world level, the development of an open and competitive European labour market for researchers with
diversified, attractive career prospects is needed.

The value added of the support provided in the People programme is the promotion of mobility, both trans-national and inter-
sectoral, the structuring effect throughout the EU on the organisation, performance and quality of research training, on the active
career development of researchers, and on knowledge sharing through researchers between sectors and research organisations,
and on a strong participation of women.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these

In order to help researchers and institutions of the EU ‘convergence’ and outermost regions to contribute to the overall Euro-
pean research effort, while taking advantage of the knowledge and experience existing in other regions of Europe, this action
aims at establishing the conditions that will allow them to exploit their potential and will help to fully realise the European
Research Area in the enlarged Union. The more detailed objectives are set out in Annex I to the legislative proposal.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

The general objective of the international cooperation activities carried out under the ‘Capacities’ heading of the seventh frame-
work programme is to help create a strong and coherent European Community science and technology policy by developing
strategic partnerships with third countries and by addressing the specific problems of third countries as well as global ones. These
activities will involve the following groups of third countries: the candidate countries, associated and industrialised countries, as
well as international cooperation partner countries (Asia, Latin America, western Europe and Central Asia, African, Caribbean
and Pacific countries, Mediterranean partner countries and countries in the western Balkans).

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement

The objective of RSFF is to foster private investment in research by improving access to debt financing for participants in Euro-
pean research infrastructures. RSFF will enable the European Investment Bank to expand, directly and indirectly (via its network
of intermediary banks), its portfolio of loans to participants in such infrastructures.

RSFF will contribute to the implementation of the Lisbon strategy, in particular to the achievement of the 3 % investment in
research objective, by helping overcome market deficiencies, increasing the total amount of funds available for research and
diversifying its sources.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these

Fusion offers the prospect of an almost limitless supply of clean energy, with ITER being the crucial next step in the progress
towards this ultimate goal. The realisation of the ITER project therefore lies at the heart of the present EU strategy. It must be
accompanied by a strong and focused European R & D programme to prepare for the exploitation of ITER and to develop the
technologies and knowledge base that will be needed during ITER operation and beyond.

Remarks

Former Article 08 12 01

This appropriation is intended to cover earlier commitments.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

The contributions from EFTA States relate exclusively to their participation in the non-nuclear activities of the framework
programme.

Other annual actions outside the framework programme.

Overall objectives

The main objectives of this policy area derive directly from the i2010 strategic initiative which is strongly focused on the main axes of the renewed
Lisbon strategy.

As far as the i2010 Electronic communications policy and network security activity is concerned, the important objectives are as follows: to con-
clude the review of the eCommunications regulatory framework, to promote an effective EU radio spectrum policy and to support the safe use of
the Internet, the prevention of information security problems and Internet governance.

In the context of the i2010 Content and services activity, the new Competitiveness and innovation programme aims at ensuring the best use and
wider uptake of ICTs by European citizens, businesses and governments and at boosting competitiveness and innovation. The objective of the
eContent plus programme is to make digital content in Europe more accessible, usable and exploitable. The preparatory action eDemocracy is
aimed at the creation of an Internet-based system for better legislation and for increased public participation involving parliaments.

As far as actions related to the research and development activities in the Information society and media policy area are concerned, information
and communication technologies (ICTs) will aim at stepping up the European research and innovation effort in ICT and improving its impact on
the competitiveness of all industrial sectors as well as on growth and jobs.

The development of e-infrastructures (Capacities research infrastructures) will provide persistent, cross discipline services to the research com-
munities based upon complex processes designed to bring the power of distributed ICT based resources to virtual communities.

In relation to the i2010 Audiovisual policy and media programme activity, the objective is to support the adoption of the directive on audio-
visual media services and propose further measures to enhance the potential of Europe’s creative sector and content industries by creating syn-
ergies between ICTs and European media and audiovisual content.

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on a set of measures designed to:

— carry out Community policy on electronic communication networks and services with a view to launching initiatives

designed to meet the challenges in this sector,

— promote and monitor the implementation of the regulatory framework for communication services (including the mecha-

nism provided for in Article 7 of the framework Directive on the new regulatory framework),

Former Article 09 03 03

This action is geared, in a balanced manner, to the implementation of operational and technical measures designed to promote
safer use of the Internet and new online technologies, particularly for children, and to fight against illegal content and content
unwanted by the end-user. In line with this, the programme will focus on the end-user, particularly parents, educators
and children.

The specific objectives are:

— fighting against illegal content by allowing users to report illegal content, with a network of hotlines,

— tackling unwanted and harmful content: benchmarking of filtering software, coordination of exchanges of information and
best practices on effective enforcement against spam, development of effective filtering technology; adaptation of existing
content rating systems to take account of convergence,

— promoting a safer environment by supporting a self-regulatory approach (design and implementation of European codes

of conduct for industry) and ensuring cooperation at Community level,

— increasing awareness about safer use of the Internet, by supporting a European network of awareness activities.

Content providers, Internet service providers and mobile network operators, regulators, standards bodies, industry self-regulatory
bodies, national, regional and local authorities responsible for industry, education, consumer protection, families, children’s
rights and child welfare and non-governmental organisations active in consumer protection, families, children’s rights and child
welfare will all be called on to contribute to putting this programme into action.

These measures will be implemented by means of the following shared-cost action:

— pilot projects and best practice actions; ad hoc projects in areas relevant to the programme, including projects demonstrat-

ing best practice or involving innovative uses of existing technology,

— networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders to ensure action throughout the European Union and to facilitate coor-

dination activities and transfer of knowledge. They may be linked to best-practice actions,

— applied Europe-wide research carried out on a comparable basis into the way people, especially children, use new media.

Accompanying measures will contribute to the implementation of the programme or the preparation of future activities. They
will include:

— benchmarking and opinion surveys to produce reliable data on safer use of the Internet and new online technologies for all

Member States collected through a comparable methodology,

— technical assessment of technologies such as filtering designed to promote safer use of Internet and new online technologies,

— studies in support of the programme and its actions, including self-regulation and the work of the Safer Internet Forum,

and the preparation of future activities,

— prize competitions for best practice; exchange of information, conferences, seminars, workshops or other meetings and

the management of clustered activities plus dissemination, information and communication activities.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this
section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in the Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with
Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Former Item 09 03 05 01

This appropriation is intended to finance the staff and administrative expenditure of the European Network and Information
Security Agency as provided for by Regulation (EC) No 460/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

The Agency was set up to enhance the capability of the Community, the Member States and, as a consequence, the business
community to prevent, address and to respond to network and information security problems. In order to achieve this goal, the
Agency will be developing a high level of expertise and stimulate broad cooperation between actors from the public and private
sectors.

The Agency’s aim is to provide assistance and to deliver advice to the Commission and the Member States on issues related to
network and information security falling within its competencies and to assist the Commission, where called upon, in the tech-
nical preparatory work for updating and developing Community legislation in the field of network and information security.

This appropriation is intended to cover the Agency’s staff and administrative expenditure (Titles 1 and 2).

The Agency must inform the budgetary authority about transfers of appropriations between operating and administrative
expenditure.

The Commission, if requested by the Agency, undertakes to notify the budgetary authority of transfers made between operating

The Commission, if requested by the Agency, undertakes to notify the budgetary authority of transfers made between operating
and administrative appropriations.

In recent years the number of agencies has increased significantly (six), the budget for the agencies has absorbed a large pro-
portion of the margin in Heading 1a and there have been significant staff increases.

Pursuant to Article 185 of the Financial Regulation and the corresponding articles of the framework Regulation for each of the
bodies set up by the Communities, the role of the budgetary authority has been strengthened.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-

corresponds to a new legal instrument in the context of the 2007 to 2013 Financial Framework.

Actions will be reinforced at the EU level for stimulating a wider uptake of ICTs. Synergistic actions at EU level aim to reduce
uncertainties and risks of duplication by sharing and replicating experiences and lessons learned and foster the internal market
dimension of services triggered by ICTs promoting interoperability and fighting against fragmentation. They aim also to stimu-
late the regulatory and technological environments necessary to promote innovation and to overcome potential barriers (e.g.
cultural, linguistic, technical and legal).

The ICT Policy Support programme shall provide for the following actions:

(a) development of the single European information space and strengthening of the internal market for ICT products and

services,

(b)

stimulation of innovation through a wider adoption of and investment in ICTs,

(c) development of an inclusive information society and more efficient and effective services in areas of public interest,

and improvement of the quality of life.

This will be done in particular by supporting the development and use of digital content (1) and the development of ICT based
services in areas of public interest including in the areas of eHealth, eGovernment, eInclusion, education and learning and envi-
ronment. The ICT in the CIP will ensure also that European businesses and in particular SMEs can benefit from the new oppor-
tunities brought by the increasing demand for these ICT based services.

(1) During a transition phase for 2007 and 2008, this will be done under the eContentplus programme which will continue to have its own legal base.

The main part of the support will go to a limited number of high-impact pilot projects per year. Accompanying measures, such
as best practice actions to spread knowledge and thematic networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders around specific
objectives, will be also launched. They will be complemented by the monitoring of the European information society, by mea-
sures providing the background knowledge that is needed for policy decision-making, and by actions for promoting and raising
awareness of the benefits brought by ICT to citizens, businesses (in particular SMEs) or public organisations.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these

Remarks

The overall objective of this programme is to make digital content in Europe more accessible, usable and exploitable in areas of
public interest — such as public sector information, education and culture — facilitating the creation and diffusion of infor-
mation and knowledge at the Union level. The programme will support the development of multilingual content for innovative,
online services across the EU. Such content should help to drive demand for broadband access and bring wider benefits for busi-
nesses, citizens and the economy. The programme seeks to support the combination of information from different systems —
irrespective of format, language or location — and to ensure that content works on different platforms, and is better tailored to
the specific needs of the user.

The operational focus will be on:

— facilitating access to, use and exploitation of digital content,

— improving quality and facilitating best practice for digital content,

— reinforcing cooperation and awareness.

The measures described above will be the subject of shared-cost actions covering: projects designed to augment knowledge
to improve existing products, processes and/or services and/or to meet the needs of Community policies; best practice actions
to spread knowledge and thematic networks bringing together a variety of stakeholders around a given technological and organi-
sational objective. There will also be parts that are fully financed by the Community, such as the accompanying measures that
will contribute to the implementation of the programme or the preparation of future activities (studies in support of the pro-
gramme; exchange of information, conferences, seminars, workshops or other meetings and the management of clustered activi-
ties; dissemination, information and communication activities, evaluation and monitoring of the measure and projects).

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-

New article

The objective of the Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) theme of the cooperation programme is to enable
Europe to master and shape the future developments of ICTs so that the demands of its society and economy are met.

Activities will strengthen Europe’s scientific and technology base in ICTs, help drive and stimulate innovation through ICT use
and ensure that ICT progress is rapidly transformed into benefits for Europe’s citizens, businesses, industry and governments.

The ICT theme prioritises strategic research around key technology pillars, ensures end-to-end integration of technologies and
provides the knowledge and the means to develop a wide range of innovative ICT applications.

The activities will leverage industrial and technological advances in the ICT sector and improve the competitive edge of impor-
tant ICT-intensive sectors — both through innovative high-value ICT-based products and services and from improvements of
organisational processes in businesses and administrations alike. The theme will also support other policies of the European
Union, by mobilising ICTs to meet public and societal demands.

Activities will cover collaboration and networking actions, support to joint technology initiatives and national programme coor-
dination initiatives. The work programmes will specify the funding schemes (collaborative projects, networks of excellence, coor-
dination and support actions, etc.) to be used for the topics on which proposals are invited, based on the different forms of Com-
munity grants (reimbursement of eligible costs, lump sum financing, flat rates).

Remarks

New article

Investing in knowledge is the best way for Europe to foster sustainable growth in a globalised economy. Many EU programmes
will contribute to leveraging knowledge for growth but the research programme is the corner stone of its knowledge policy. In
particular, the specific ‘Capacities’ programme aims at enhancing research and innovation capacity throughout Europe to allow
for the emergence, reinforcement of and access to multidisciplinary European poles of excellence.

Research infrastructures play a key role in the creation of knowledge, its diffusion, application and exploitation, thus fostering
innovation. To this end, the Research infrastructures activity develops and fully exploits the EU’s research capacities through
large-scale infrastructures, building on past successes in realising a European Research Area.

Activities covered under this article address more specifically the deployment of ICT based infrastructures, or e-Infrastructures.
The e-Infrastructures provide services to the research communities by bringing the power of distributed ICT based resources
(computing, connectivity, storage, data and instrumentation) to virtual communities. The reinforcement of a European approach
in this domain establishes synergies between national infrastructures and initiatives, ensures that critical masses are reached,
rationalises new investments, and strives for world leadership. This can make a significant contribution to boosting the Euro-
pean research potential and its exploitation, and consolidating e-Infrastructures as a cornerstone of the European Research Area,
a ‘forerunner’ of cross-discipline innovation and a driver in changing the way science is conducted.

Also entered in this article are the costs of high-level scientific and technological meetings, conferences, workshops and semi-
nars of European interest organised by the Commission, the costs of studies, grants, monitoring and evaluation of the specific
programmes and of the framework programmes, the funding of high-level scientific and technological analyses and evaluations
carried out on behalf of the Community to investigate new areas of research suitable for Community action, inter alia, in the
context of the European Research Area, and measures to monitor and disseminate the results of the programmes, including mea-
sures under previous framework programmes.

TITLE 10 — DIRECT RESEARCH

Remarks

These comments apply to all the budget headings in the Direct research policy area (with the exception of Chapter 10 05).

The appropriations cover not only expenditure on operations and staff covered by the Staff Regulations, but also other expenditure on staff, con-
tracting, infrastructure, information and publications and any other administrative expenditure arising from research and technological develop-
ment operations, including exploratory research.

In accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation, any revenue entered in Items 6 2 2 4 and 6 2 2 5 of the statement of revenue may give
rise to the provision of additional appropriations.

Miscellaneous revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations to be used in Chapter 10 02, 10 03 or 10 04 or Article 10 01 05,
depending on their purpose.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in the Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the
statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

The possibility of third countries or organisations from third countries taking part in European cooperation in the field of scientific and technical
research is envisaged in the case of some of these projects. Any financial contribution will be entered in Item 6 0 1 3 of the statement of revenue
and may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation.

The additional appropriations will be provided under Articles 10 02 02 and 10 03 02.

The appropriations in this title cover approximately 16 % of the cost of the staff working in the financial and administrative departments of the
Joint Research Centre and of the support which they need.

Remarks

The current programme covers the 2004 to 2006 period but a one-year extension is under consideration.

The Commission is currently trying to set up a ‘Joint undertaking’ for the operation of the HFR. The proposal should be sub-
mitted to the Legislative authority around mid-2006. If it is approved, the joint undertaking could start as from 1 January 2007.
Should delays occur, the extension of the current supplementary programme would be formulated for one more year and would
require the support of this budgetary line.

The main objectives of the programme are as follows:

— to ensure over 250 days operation of the HFR per annum in order to guarantee the availability of neutrons for experimen-

tal purposes,

— to ensure the rational use of this reactor according to the needs of research institutes requesting the assistance of the HFR

in areas such as:

— improving the safety of existing nuclear reactors,

— health, and in particular the development of medical isotopes for medical research and the testing of therapeutic

techniques,

— fusion,

— basic research and training,

— waste management, and in particular the possibility of developing nuclear fuels for the elimination of weapons-grade

plutonium.

In accordance with Article 18 of the Financial Regulation, this item will, in the course of the financial year, be provided with
additional appropriations within the limits of the revenue from, notably, the two Member States concerned (currently the Neth-
erlands and France) to be entered in Item 6 2 2 1 of the statement of revenue.

Overall objectives

This policy area includes all the activities covered by the common fisheries policy (CFP) which comes under the exclusive competence of the Com-
munity. It concerns all fisheries activities as well as the processing and marketing of these products.

It also ensures that the relevant provisions of Community law are rightly applied in the fisheries sector.

The policy area covers five operational activities: specific measures in support of the CFP and maritime affairs (including conservation of fisheries
resources, control and dialogue with the fisheries sector), relations and agreements with third countries and international organisations, common
organisation of the fisheries market, fisheries research and structural measures for fisheries through the European Fisheries Fund (EFF).

Sixty per cent of appropriations is devoted to the EFF. However, the EFF operations are mainly implemented by the Member States as a part of
shared management.

cation and the exchange of information between the Member States and the Commission.

It is also intended to cover expenditure on evaluations in accordance with Article 41 of Regulation (EC) No 104/2000.

Following the entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005, by which the management of the measures change from shared

The financial contribution resulting from old fisheries agreements generally includes a part whose use is left entirely to the dis-
cretion of the relevant governments and a contribution to measures designed to ensure sustainable management of the third
country’s fishery resources. For new partnership agreements a global envelope is allocated. The amounts for 2007 concerning
fisheries agreements in force can be broken down as follows (commitments): financial contribution EUR 10 917 500, support
to the fisheries policy and other targeted measures EUR 1 545 000, and global envelopes for new partnership agreements
EUR 42 819 000.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to finance the following under the action plan for closer dialogue with the fishing industry and
those affected by the common fisheries policy (CFP) and maritime affairs:

— grants to Regional Advisory Councils (RACs) to cover operational costs as well as interpretation and translation costs of

RACs meetings,

— grants to European trade bodies for the organisation of internal coordination meetings in preparation for meetings of the
Advisory Committee on Fisheries (ACFA), including the participation of ACFA representatives in the meetings of the RACs
in order to ensure coordination of the work of the RACs with that of the ACFA,

— the implementation of measures to provide documentation about and explain the common fisheries policy aimed at the

fishing industry and those affected by the common fisheries policy, as well as maritime affairs.

The Commission will continue supporting the functioning of the RACs with a financial contribution and by participating in
meetings, preparing relevant documents and ensuring that all RAC opinions are included when drafting new legislation. If the
Commission does not include the RAC opinion or only parts of the opinion, the Commission should state why and where it
deviates from the RAC opinion. The involvement of people working in fisheries and other interest groups in the CFP process
will be strengthened, so that greater account of specific regional characteristics is taken.

Part of the appropriation is earmarked also for information and communication activities linked to the common fisheries policy
and maritime affairs as well as for communication activities addressed to the interested parties. Efforts will continue to inform
the stakeholders and the specialised media in the new Member States as well as in the countries joining the EU in the forth-
coming enlargement about the common fisheries policy.

Any revenue may result in the opening of additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18 of Council Regulation (EC,
Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Com-
munities (OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1), as amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1995/2006 (OJ L 390, 30.12.2006, p. 1).

CHAPTER 11 06 — EUROPEAN FISHERIES FUND (EFF) (cont’d)

Remarks

Article 39 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 provides for financial corrections, any revenue from which is entered in Item 6 5 0 0
of the statement of revenue. That revenue may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations, in accordance with
Article 18 of the Financial Regulation, in specific instances where they are necessary to cover risks of cancellation or of reduc-
tions in corrections previously decided upon.

Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 determines the conditions for repayment of an advance without having the effect of reducing
the contribution from the Structural Funds towards the assistance concerned. Any revenue from the repayment of advances,
which is entered in Item 6 1 5 7 of the statement of revenue, will give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accor-
dance with Articles 18 and 157 of the Financial Regulation.

Measures to combat fraud are funded under Article 24 02 01.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the settlement of commitments entered into, in earlier programming periods, by the
FIFG in respect of innovative, preparatory, monitoring or evaluation measures, and any similar technical assistance measures
provided for in the Regulations concerned. It also funds the former multiannual measures, in particular those approved
and implemented under the other abovementioned regulations, which are not covered by the priority objectives of the Funds.
This appropriation will also be used if necessary to cover financing due under the FIFG for measures for which the correspond-
ing commitment appropriations are not available or provided for in programming for 2000 to 2006.

Remarks

New article

This appropriation is intended to cover the operational programmes of the European Fisheries Fund (EFF) convergence objec-
tive for the programming period 2007 to 2013.

Particular importance will be attached to the economic diversification of regions affected by a reduction in fishing activity, to
the adjustment of fleet capacity and to fleet renewal, without involving an increase in fishing efforts, as well as to the sustainable
development of the fishing zones.

Actions financed under this article should take into account the need to maintain a stable and enduring balance between the
capacity of the fishing fleets and the resources available, and the need to promote a safety culture within fishing.

This appropriation is also intended to cover the financing of actions to improve fishing gear selectivity.

Remarks

Article 39 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 provides for financial corrections for which any revenue is entered in Item 6 5 0 0
of the statement of revenue. This revenue may be used to provide additional appropriations in accordance with Article 18 of
the Financial Regulation in specific cases where they are required to cover the risk of corrections adopted earlier being cancelled
or reduced. Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 provides for financial corrections for the period 2007 to 2013.

Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 lays down the conditions for the repayment of payments on account which does not have the
effect of reducing the contribution from the Structural Funds to the operation concerned. Any revenue arising from the repay-
ment of payments on account entered in Item 6 1 5 7 of the statement of revenue will be used to provide additional appro-
priations in accordance with Articles 18 and 157 of the Financial Regulation. Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 lays down the
conditions for reimbursement of pre-financing for the period 2007 to 2013.

The special programme for peace and reconciliation will continue until 2010, in accordance with the conclusions of the Brus-
sels European Council of 15 and 16 December 2005.

Measures to combat fraud are funded from Article 24 02 01.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of commitments remaining to be settled from the period 2000 to 2006
for the special programme for peace and reconciliation in Northern Ireland and the border counties of Ireland. The special pro-
gramme for peace and reconciliation was continued, in accordance with the decisions mentioned below, of the Berlin European
Council to provide EUR 500 million (1999 prices) for the new period of validity of the programme (2000 to 2004). Following
the request in the conclusions of the Brussels European Council meeting on 17 and 18 June 2004, an additional EUR 105 mil-
lion, to be allocated in 2005 and 2006, was added to align interventions under the programme with the other programmes
under the Structural Funds that come to an end in 2006. Additionality is to be fully observed. The Commission is to submit an
annual report to the European Parliament on this measure.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled under the Interreg III Community initiative relat-
ing to cross-border, transnational and interregional cooperation from the programming period 2000 to 2006.

A provisional amount representing a maximum of 2 % of the budget allocation for this initiative will be reserved for financing
technical assistance. Where such technical assistance measures are carried out at the initiative of the Commission, up to 100 %
of their total cost can be financed. This appropriation also covers measures taken by partners in preparation for the next pro-
gramming period.

Special attention will be paid to cross-border activities, in particular with a view to enlargement and better coordination with
the Phare, Tacis, ISPA and MEDA programmes.

This appropriation is also intended to cover the costs of coordinating activities in the field of cross-border labour mobility and
skills. Suitable attention will be paid to cooperation with the outermost regions.

These appropriations can be combined with Phare cross-border cooperation appropriations for common projects at the exter-
nal borders of the European Union and the candidate countries.

This appropriation is intended to cover, inter alia, preparatory operations for local and regional cooperation between the old
and new Member States and the applicant countries in the fields of democracy and social and regional development.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure relating to the implementation of the action programme for Community
customs, and in particular the financing of measures for monitoring licence management systems, working parties, pilot projects
or schemes and seminars with officials from Member States’ administrations and from non-member countries associated with
customs policy and representatives of outside bodies, as well as the coordinated development of the use of computerised cus-
toms procedures, taking account of the current state of computerisation of national administrations and the interests of eco-
nomic operators in the European Union, and of developments in the international environment in this area.

This support will take the form of the financing of expenditure on studies, the development, implementation and operation of
common systems and the definition of common guidelines for training and technical assistance for implementation. The oper-
ating expenditure also covers financial contributions to the functioning of systems, in particular decentralised data input; the
financing of information and training measures for system users; the acquisition and maintenance of shared equipment; the
financing of technical assistance.

This appropriation is also intended to cover expenditure incurred by the implementation of the activities, particularly exchanges
of officials and the organisation of joint training courses, provided for in the abovementioned Decisions for Community cus-
toms and indirect-taxation officials responsible for applying Community law in connection with the internal market and at the
external borders of the Community.

These exchanges may also involve certain non-member countries if it is thought that this will be useful for achieving the objec-
tives of the programme.

This appropriation also covers the financing of customs-related analyses and strategic studies, the development of harmonised
working methods and measures to provide Member States with assistance and technical support.

Particular attention needs to be given to programmes for training and exchange of information to improve knowledge and con-
trol of the illegal trade in animal and plant species in the context of implementing the Convention on International Trade in
Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.

This appropriation may also cover the involvement of non-member countries where cooperation with these countries, and par-
ticularly the adoption of common procedures, will facilitate trade and improve fraud prevention, and consequently make for
more efficient administration of the internal market.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure incurred for the implementation of the action programme to improve the

ers conferred on the Commission (OJ L 184, 17.7.1999, p. 23).

The appropriation covers in particular:

— the costs involved in keeping operational existing systems, in particular FITS (Fiscalis Information System), composed by

— the cost of feasibility studies for the new systems planned in the field of direct taxation,

— the travel and subsistence expenses of officials from participating countries responsible for indirect taxation, taking part in
exchanges, seminars or multilateral controls abroad. Multilateral controls may involve the Member States and the candi-
date countries which have concluded among themselves or with the Member States of the European Union bilateral or mul-
tilateral agreements authorising such controls,

— travel and subsistence expenses, and the cost of purchasing any material required for training,

— a proportion of the costs of other activities which will be adopted by the management procedure laid down in Article 4 of

Former Item 15 01 04 12

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications directly linked
to the achievement of the objective of the programme or measures coming under this budget heading, plus any other expen-
diture on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad
hoc service contracts.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution of candidate countries or western Balkan countries participating in Community programmes,
entered under Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may be used for additional expenditure, applying the same ratio as
betweeen the amount authorised for expenditure on administrative management and the total appropriations entered for the
programme, pursuant to Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

In accordance with Decision No 2317/2003/EC, this appropriation is intended to cover the following measures:

— promoting the emergence of a clearly European system of higher education which is attractive both within the European

Union and beyond its borders,

— fostering greater international interest in obtaining European qualifications and/or experience among graduates and highly

qualified academics throughout the world, and more opportunities to obtain these qualifications,

— fostering more structured cooperation between the European Community and third-country institutions, and increased out-

going mobility from the EU as part of European study programmes,

— achieving a better brand image for European education, with a higher profile and easier access.

The special access needs of people with disabilities must be taken into account with a view to ensuring that they have full and
equal access to the activities funded by Erasmus and the results and evaluation of those activities. The additional costs incurred
by disabled people in ensuring that they have equal access to the programme must be incorporated into the funding for the
activities.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-

to cover the following specific programmes and horizontal actions:

— Comenius: for general education activities concerning schools up to and including upper-secondary level,

— Erasmus: for education and advanced training activities at higher education level,

— Leonardo da Vinci: for all other aspects of vocational education and training,

— Grundtvig: for adult education,

— a transversal programme: incorporating four key activities to cover policy issues, to make specific provision for language
learning and ICT-related activity where these fall outside the specific programmes, and to provide a better dissemination
service,

— Jean Monnet: to support European institutions and associations active in the field of European integration.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution of candidate countries, western Balkan countries or the Swiss Confederation participating in
Community programmes, entered under Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may be used for additional expenditure, pur-
suant to Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

The European Parliament resolution on the Commission’s Annual Policy Strategy (APS) (recital G) argued that the 2007 budget
should help ‘to make entrepreneurs and businesses better able to succeed in global competition, notably through increased efforts in the field
of research and development’. Innovation and research are key priorities for Parliament in the 2007 budget. Paragraph 28 of the
APS resolution ‘recalls the importance of strengthening the capacities of the knowledge triangle’. This pilot project is intended to boost
technology transfer from research to business. The European Association of National Research Facilities Laboratories (ERF) pro-
vides an example of effective cooperation already under way in this area.

This appropriation is intended to cover the costs of in-service traineeships intended for graduates and is designed to provide
them with an overview of the objectives set and the challenges faced by the European Union, an insight into how its institutions
work and an opportunity to enhance their knowledge through a work experience at the Commission.

This appropriation covers the payment of grants and other related costs (supplement for dependent persons or for trainees, per-
sons with disabilities, accident and sickness insurance, etc., the reimbursement of travelling costs arising from the traineeship,
particularly at the start and the close of the traineeship, as well as the costs of organising events stemming from the traineeship
programme, e.g. visits, hosting and reception costs). It also covers the costs of evaluation in order to optimise the programme
of traineeships and communication and information campaigns.

The Commission must ensure that the selection of trainees is based on objective, transparent criteria and reflects a geographical
balance.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the completion of measures supported as special annual events.

EUR 400 000 is earmarked for the Jaca 2007 European Youth Olympic Festival, a week-long winter sports competition in which
more than 1 350 top winter sports competitors between the ages of 15 and 18 from 44 European countries will be taking part.
The appropriation is also intended to cover activities scheduled by the organising committee, with particular reference to activi-
ties promoting the European dimension of sport, especially its social and educational role, as well as voluntary activities, activi-
ties that foster effort and healthy competition, fair play, openness, respect and sportsmanship in competitive events, and cul-
tural activities — particularly those with a European dimension — aimed at promoting Europe through sport, making it easier
for young people from the European Union and other European countries to meet and get to know one another, and spreading
awareness of European culture and humanist values among young sportspersons.

With due regard for the provisions of the Financial Regulation, in particular Articles 109 and 110 thereof, EUR 1 500 000 is
intended, in the framework of the 50th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome, as a contribution to the financing of the 2007 Euro-
palia Europa festival.

Remarks

These appropriations are intended to fund general information operations concerning the European Union, for the purpose of
making the work of the Community institutions more visible, the decisions taken and the stages in the building of Europe. They
concern essentially the funding or co-funding of the production and/or dissemination of multimedia information products.

The Commission has adopted communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee
and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information and commu-
nication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final, COM(2002) 350 final and COM(2004) 196 final). These com-
munications propose a framework for cooperation between the institutions and with the Member States and/or civil society for
the development of a communication and information strategy for the European Union. In 2006, using in particular the Europa
website, the Commission also published a White Paper on a European communication policy (COM(2006) 35 final) with the
aim of bringing the Union closer to its citizens, and after consultations this will be followed by operational proposals.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission,
lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of EU information and communication policy. It
coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion
on the priorities for the following years based on a report drawn up by the Commission.

With regard to decentralised work, the Commission’s representations and the European Parliament’s external offices jointly
devise and carry out information and communication activities relating to European Union policies, with the exception of issues
concerning each institution’s specific institutional role.

This appropriation is intended to cover the European Union’s expenditure on decentralised communication. The aim of local
communication activities is in particular to provide target groups with the tools to gain a better understanding of burning topi-
cal issues.

The Commission has adopted communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee
and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information and commu-
nication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final, COM(2002) 350 final and COM(2004) 196 final). These com-
munications propose a framework for cooperation between the institutions and with the Member States and/or civil society for
the development of a communication and information strategy for the European Union. In 2006, using in particular the Europa
website, the Commission also published a White Paper on a European communication policy (COM(2006) 35 final, 1.2.2006)
with the aim of bringing the Union closer to its citizens, and after consultations this will be followed by operational proposals.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission,
lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of EU information and communication policy. It
coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion
on the priorities for the following years based on a report drawn up by the Commission.

TITLE 16 — COMMUNICATION

CHAPTER 16 03 — ‘GOING LOCAL’ COMMUNICATION (cont’d)

16 03 04 (cont’d)

They fit into the Action Plan adopted by the Commission (SEC(2005) 985, 20.7.2005) to improve its communication with citi-
zens, in the context of the White Paper on a European communication policy (COM(2005) 35, 1.2.2006) that it drew up in
cooperation with the other institutions.

The appropriation is intended primarily to cover informing citizens about the Union’s present and future options and involving
them in a debate on this subject.

It covers in particular activities such as:

— the ‘Debate on the future of the European Union’ launched in connection with the Intergovernmental Conference,

— the ‘Plan-D for Democracy, Dialogue and Debate’ (COM(2005) 494, 13.10.2005).

Implemented in close cooperation with the authorities in the Member States and/or civil society, these activities take account of
specific national and regional features. This appropriation may also finance activities by political foundations, which provide a
forum for debate and reinforce dialogue and political choice for citizens.

The European Fund for Journalism will support small teams of journalists doing research on a European issue in different Euro-
pean Member States for publication in those countries. The funding is granted on the basis of proposals sent in by journalists
and evaluated by an anonymous panel according to predefined criteria.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission,
lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of EU information and communication policy. It
coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion
on the priorities for the following years based on a report drawn up by the Commission.

The measures are carried out:

— by the Commission’s Representations in the Member States,

— by the Commission’s departments at its headquarters,

— with the involvement of local media (press, television and radio).

They concern the funding or co-funding of:

— communication operations linked to specific annual or multi-annual priority themes,

— ad hoc communication operations on a national or international scale that fit in with the communication priorities,

— communication operations organised in partnership with the Member States in order to create synergies between the means
of action employed by the Member States and the Commission and coordinate their information and communication activi-
ties on the European Union, with the involvement of local media (press, television and radio).

Irrespective of the beneficiary, no administrative expenditure against this article is authorised.

The amount of assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(e) to (j) of the Financial Regulation is estimated at EUR 5 000.

Remarks

The objective of this pilot project is to create communities of European parliamentarians (including at national and regional
level), journalists and other opinion-formers to share information and knowledge about the European Union. To the fullest
extent possible the aim of the pilot project is to use the Internet and on-line tools to allow ‘ideas networks’ to form and to grow
organically. The project will build upon ideas set out in the Commission’s White Paper on a European Communication Policy
(COM(2006) 35 final), but its focus will be on assisting the formation of organic ideas/information networks, rather than
through more ‘traditional’ structures such as information points in European Commission buildings in the Member States.

Former Article 16 03 01 (in part)

The appropriations in this budget line are intended to cover the analysis of trends in public opinion, mainly by means of opin-
ion polls (e.g. general-public ‘Eurobarometer’ surveys, ‘flash’ surveys, by telephone, of specific populations on particular sub-
jects, at regional or nation level, or qualitative surveys), together with quality control of these surveys.

The Commission has adopted communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee
and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information and commu-
nication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final, COM(2002) 350 final and COM(2004) 196 final). These com-
munications propose a framework for cooperation between the institutions and with the Member States and/or civil society for
the development of a communication and information strategy for the European Union. In 2006, using in particular the Europa
website, the Commission also published a White Paper on a European communication policy (COM(2006) 35 final, 1.2.2006)

on the priorities for the following years based on a report drawn up by the Commission.

With regard to decentralised activities, the Commission’s Representations and the European Parliament’s external offices jointly
devise and carry out information and communication activities relating to European Union policies, with the exception of issues
concerning each institution’s specific institutional role.

These appropriations are intended to cover expenditure relating to the production for various target groups of written publi-
cations concerning the Union’s activities that are often distributed through a decentralised network.

tions that are distributed among multipliers and cover various fields (social, economic and political),

— the dissemination of specific basic information on the European Union (on paper, in all the official languages) for the gen-

eral public, coordinated from headquarters.

Publication costs cover, among other things, preparation and drafting (including authors’ fees), freelance editing, use of docu-
mentation, reproduction of documents, data purchase or management, editing, translation, revision (including checking the con-
cordance of texts), printing, distribution, storage, dissemination and promotion of the publications.

Remarks

These appropriations are intended to cover:

— the financing of information and documentation outlets throughout Europe (Europe Direct network); these outlets supple-

ment the work of the Commission’s Representations in the Member States,

— support — training, coordination and assistance — for information networks,

— the financing of storage and distribution of information material by these outlets,

— the financing of national information centres financed together with the Member States.

The Commission has adopted communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee
and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information and commu-
nication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final, COM(2002) 350 final and COM(2004) 196 final). These com-
munications propose a framework for cooperation between the institutions and with the Member States and/or civil society for
the development of a communication and information strategy for the European Union. In 2006, using in particular the Europa
website, the Commission also published a White Paper on a European communication policy (COM(2006) 35 final, 1.2.2006)
with the aim of bringing the Union closer to its citizens, and after consultations this will be followed by operational proposals.

Irrespective of the beneficiary, no administrative expenditure against this article is authorised.

The amount of assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(e) to (j) of the Financial Regulation is estimated at EUR 40 000.

Remarks

In 2007, this payment appropriation is intended to cover commitments relating to previous years.

Decision No 20/2004/EC establishes a general framework for financing Community actions in support of consumer policy as
defined in the multiannual strategy. The decision and the strategy entail three strategic objectives in the medium term:

— a high, harmonised level of consumer protection throughout the EU,

— effective implementation of consumer protection rules,

— involvement of consumer organisations in Community policies.

These three aims are supported by the legal basis mentioned below, applicable for 2004 to 2006. A new legal basis will enter
into force in 2007 and will be covered by a new Article 17 02 02.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with
Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Memoranda of understanding were signed with Romania on 22 October 2004 and with Bulgaria on 29 October 2004. They
will enter into force after ratification at national level.

Legal basis

Decision No 20/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 December 2003 establishing a general framework
for financing Community actions in support of consumer policy for the years 2004 to 2007 (OJ L 5, 9.1.2004, p. 1), as last

New article

A proposal on a new health and consumer protection strategy and programme 2007 to 2013 was adopted by the Commission
on 6 April 2005, replacing the existing public health programme 2003 to 2008.

The Commission Communication proposes the following objectives common to health and consumer protection:

— to protect citizens from risks and threats which are beyond the control of individuals and that cannot be effectively tackled

by individual Member States,

— to increase the ability of citizens to take better decisions about their health and consumer protection interests,

— to mainstream health and consumer protection policy objectives across all Community policies.

In addition, health and consumer policies have their own specific objectives and actions. For consumers’ protection there are
two specific objectives:

— Objective 1: to ensure a high level of consumer protection, notably through an improved evidence basis, better consulta-

tion and better representation of consumers’ interests,

— Objective 2: to ensure effective application of consumer protection rules notably through enforcement cooperation, infor-

mation, education and redress.

The draft consumer programme aims at consolidating and expanding the action areas of the 2002 to 2006 consumer pro-
gramme. It expands considerably Community activities on developing the knowledge and evidence base, enforcement coop-
eration, market surveillance and product safety, consumer education and capacity building for consumer organisations.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Remarks

In 2007, this appropriation is intended to cover commitments made in previous years in the context of the programme of Com-
munity action in the field of public health (2003 to 2008).

The aim of this programme was to contribute to attaining a high level of health protection by directing action towards improv-
ing public health, preventing human illness and diseases, and obviating sources of danger to health.

Its three main priorities were:

— to improve information and knowledge for the development of public health and the strengthening and maintenance of
effective health interventions and efficient health systems, by developing and operating a well-structured and comprehen-
sive system for collecting, analysing, evaluating and imparting health information and knowledge to competent authori-
ties, health professionals and the public, and by undertaking assessments of and reporting on the health situation and
health-related policies, systems and measures,

— to enhance the ability to respond rapidly and in a coordinated way to threats to health by developing, strengthening and
assisting the operation and interlinking of surveillance, early warning and rapid reaction mechanisms covering health
hazards,

— to address health determinants through health promotion and disease-prevention measures, by supporting and developing
broad health-promotion activities and disease-prevention actions and specific risk-reduction and elimination instruments.

A new legal basis will enter into force in 2007 and will be covered by a new Article 17 03 06.

Remarks

New article

A proposal on a new Health and consumer protection strategy and programme 2007 to 2013 was adopted by the Commission
on 6 April 2005.

The Commission Communication proposes the following objectives common to health and consumer protection:

— to protect citizens from risks and threats which are beyond the control of individuals and that cannot be effectively tackled

by individual Member States,

— to increase the ability of citizens to take better decisions about their health and consumer interests,

— to mainstream health and consumer policy objectives across all Community policies.

In addition, Health and consumer policies have their own specific objectives and actions.

Health objectives:

— to improve information on and knowledge of health: the objective is to strengthen the collection, analysis, exchange and

dissemination of health-related information in Europe,

— to improve the capacity to react rapidly to health threats to protect citizens against health threats,

— to promote good health and prevent disease through action on health determinants to improve prosperity and solidarity.

For 2007 and as far as the health area is concerned, the programme 2007 to 2013 will focus on three pillars, where European
level action is essential:

(1) Health information

The objective of this pillar is to strengthen the collection, analysis, exchange and dissemination of health-related information in
Europe which is necessary to provide a solid foundation for health policy making and is also needed by professionals for their
work and by citizens to enable them to make healthy lifestyle choices.

TITLE 17 — HEALTH AND CONSUMER PROTECTION

CHAPTER 17 03 — PUBLIC HEALTH (cont’d)

17 03 06 (cont’d)

(2) Health security

The overall objective is to protect citizen against health threats.

An effective rapid response capability is needed to avoid threats to public health, for example arising from communicable dis-
eases or chemical or biological attacks. Tackling such threats need to be coordinated effectively at EU level. The integration of
the EU based on the principle of free movement increases the need for vigilance, to respond to major cross-border health threats
such as avian flu, or bioterrorism.

(3) Promote health to improve prosperity and solidarity

The overall objective is to contribute to EU prosperity by fostering healthy ageing and bridging inequalities as well as to enhance
solidarity between national health systems

Actions would include initiatives to increase healthy life years and promote healthy ageing; explore health’s impact on produc-
tivity and labour participation; support the reduction of inequalities between Member States and investment in health, thus con-
tributing to the Lisbon agenda, and to productivity and growth. Actions would also enhance solidarity between health systems,
including cooperation on shared challenges, thus facilitating the development of a Community framework for safe, high-quality
and efficient health services.

Actions would further include the promotion of health by tackling environmental, addiction and lifestyle determinants.

Non-governmental organisations are key players in the implementation of the programme. Therefore, they should be allocated
adequate funds.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with
Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Legal basis

Decision No 1926/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a programme of
Community action in the field of consumer policy (2007-2013) (OJ L 404, 30.12.2006, p. 39).

Reference acts

Amended proposal for a Decision of the European Parliament and of the Council, submitted by the Commission on 24 May
2006, establishing a second programme of Community action in the field of Health and consumer protection 2007 to 2013
(COM(2006) 234 final).

Remarks

Former Article 17 04 01

The Community’s financial assistance helps accelerate the eradication or control of animal diseases by providing funds to supple-
ment national financial resources and contributes to harmonise measures at Community level. A major part of these diseases
or infections are zoonoses communicable to man (BSE, brucellosis, salmonellosis, tuberculosis, etc.). Moreover, the persistence
of these diseases hampers a smooth operation of the internal markets. Fighting them helps to improve the level of public health
and to boost food safety in the European Union.

In 2007, these credits will become dissociated credits.

It consists in providing financial assistance:

— to the Community reference laboratories, designated in Community legislation, whose aim is to help improve control over

animal diseases, prevent them and reduce the risks as far as possible,

— for the monitoring of compliance with animal-protection provisions during the transport of animals for slaughter,

— for the development of marker vaccines or tests that can distinguish between sick and vaccinated animals,

— for the establishment and the maintenance of a rapid alert system for the notification of a direct or indirect risk to human

health deriving from food or feed,

— for technical and scientific measures necessary to develop Community veterinary legislation, for example the surveillance

of Campylobacter in broilers in Sweden.

The outbreak of some animal diseases in the Community could possibly have a major impact on operation of the internal mar-
ket and on the Community’s commercial relations with third countries. Thus, it is important that the Community makes a finan-
cial contribution in order to allow the fastest eradication possible of any outbreak of a serious infectious disease in Member States
deploying Community means to fight these diseases.

In 2007, these credits will become dissociated credits.

(1) These appropriations are used for the formulation of foot-and-mouth antigens; an outbreak of the disease is unpredictable; hence the scheme of

payments may be adapted in function of the situation in the field.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the settlement of commitments contracted previously on Items B2-5 1 0 0, B2-5 1 0 1,
B2-5 1 0 2, B2-5 1 0 3, B2-5 1 0 5, B2-5 1 0 6, B2-5 1 2 2 and B2-5 1 9 0.

This appropriation will be used, in case of an emergency, to cover the reformulation of foot-and-mouth antigens for emergency
vaccination to tackle the disease. The amount of EUR 1 380 000 is the balance of the amount of EUR 3 900 000 allocated in
1997 for the purchase and reformulation of antigens. Until the reformulation in question has taken place, payment appropria-
tions totalling EUR 1 380 000 are required.

In 2007, this appropriation will only be used to cover expenditure related to commitments made in 2006 not yet paid at the
end of 2006. These payments will be possible thanks to the automatic carry forward of payment credits from 2006 as, until
2006, these credits are non-dissociated.

The Authority must inform the budgetary authority about transfers of appropriations between operating and administrative
expenditure.

The Commission, if requested by the Authority, undertakes to notify the budgetary authority of transfers made between oper-
ating and administrative appropriations.

During the budgetary procedure and even during the financial year, when a letter of amendment or an amending budget is sub-
mitted, the Commission shall inform the budgetary authority beforehand of any changes in the budget of the agencies, in par-
ticular concerning the establishment plans published in the budget. Such a procedure is in accordance with the provisions on
transparency set out in the Interinstitutional Declaration of 17 November 1995 and implemented in the form of a code of con-
duct agreed by Parliament, the Commission and the agencies.

The Authority’s establishment plan is shown in Part C ‘Staff’ of the general statement of revenue (volume 1).

The amounts repaid in accordance with Article 16 of the Framework Financial Regulation for the bodies referred to in Article 185
of the Financial Regulation constitute assigned revenue (Article 18(1)(f) of the Financial Regulation) to be charged to Item 6 6 0 0
of the general statement of revenue.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Legal basis

Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general prin-
ciples and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of

Remarks

The purpose of the action is to test hypotheses in the field of migration management. On the basis of its evaluation, it could
lead to the development of a global approach, an objective set by the European Union. The action will be based on four related
components.

Component 1: Extension for a third year (cf. the former preparatory action on return management in the area of migration,
Article 18 03 08) of preparatory measures for:

— the implementation of integrated actions to return illegal residents to their country of origin, or countries of former resi-
dence and transit, as well as measures aimed at ensuring sustainability of these returns. The plans would include actions
involving both voluntary and forced returns,

— encouraging the development of cooperation between Member States both in devising return plans and in implementing

actions within these plans.

Component 2: Financial assistance for the employment of immigrants returning to their countries of origin with which there are
admission agreements.

Component 3: Organising information campaigns, in countries of origin, for applicants for immigration into the European Union
so as to inform them in particular about the dangers of illegal immigration.

Component 4: Reception in dignity and solidarity — Assistance to Member States in coping with reception of irregular migrants
arriving by sea. Measures would:

— assist Member States affected by sudden arrivals of migrants, e.g. by improving and exchanging good/best practices and

providing interpreters and medical and legal teams,

COMMISSION
TITLE 18 — AREA OF FREEDOM, SECURITY AND JUSTICE

CHAPTER 18 03 — MIGRATION FLOWS — COMMON IMMIGRATION AND ASYLUM POLICIES (cont’d)

— assist Member States to enhance reception quality and capacity, including temporary capacity, reception of irregular
migrants at arrival points, e.g, by providing first aid and transport to adequate reception centres and improving/increasing
reception facilities and conditions at those facilities,

— assist Member States in pooling resources to address particular pressures on their asylum systems, in particular through
activities where specific expertise is needed, sharing knowledge and promoting joint approaches to address mass arrivals of
asylum seekers at the external border of the EU.

For component 4, recipients of funding should be national authorities. Projects may include partnerships with other Member
State authorities, international organisations and NGOs.

For all components, part of the appropriations should be used by the Commission to help in the management of this action
(external experts, studies, etc.).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of priority information measures on Community policies.

It covers information in the field of justice and home affairs in relation to the establishment of an area of freedom, security and
justice. This measure is designed to be an effective channel of communication and dialogue between the people of the European
Union and the Community institutions and take account of specific national and regional characteristics, in close cooperation
with the Member State authorities.

The Commission has adopted two communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social
Committee and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information
and communication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final and COM(2002) 350). These communications pro-
pose an interinstitutional framework for cooperation between the institutions and with the Member States for the development
of a communication and information policy strategy for the European Union.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission,
lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of EU information and communication policy. It
coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion
on the priorities for the following years on the basis of information provided by the Commission.

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of an information campaign on the new transparency measures based on
Article 255 of the EC Treaty and Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 and of the creation of an interinstitutional server giving online
access to the EU law-making process.

It covers information to citizens about their rights of access to European Parliament, Council and Commission documents spe-
cifically relating to the interinstitutional law-making process. This measure is designed to inform citizens about the principles
and conditions governing access to EU documents and at the same time to give them a single tool to facilitate their access to
documents relating to an interinstitutional legislative procedure and to national implementing measures. In this context, this
appropriation is intended to cover also the development of the TRANS-JAI project (maintenance of the system developed up to
the end of 2006, evolution, dissemination).

New item

This appropriation is intended to bring in a specific and complementary way, technical and financial assistance for neighbour-
ing countries, to support them in their efforts to ensure a better management of migratory flows in all aspects. The continua-
tion of a programme ‘migration & asylum’ is envisaged within the framework of the thematic actions to be implemented from
2007 onwards on the basis of a new legislation for external actions.

Within the framework of the rationalisation and simplification of the instruments for external actions for the period of the finan-
cial framework 2007 to 2013, the Commission has proposed to replace the ‘Aeneas’’ programme from 2007 onwards by a the-
matic cooperation programme with third countries in these fields.

Remarks

Former Article 19 02 03

This appropriation follows on from the preparatory action for 2001 to 2003 and the Commission communication on inte-
grating migration issues in the European Union’s relations with third countries (COM(2002) 703), which have paved the way
for a legal basis.

Priority will be given to comprehensive programmes that are consistent with Community efforts which contribute to address-
ing the root causes of migration.

The EU has approved a Community programme for the cooperation with non-EU countries and regions of origin and transit in
the field of migration and asylum, which will provide a specific, additional response to the needs encountered by these coun-
tries in their efforts to better manage south-south migratory flows, and combat poverty, the root cause of migration, as well as
mitigating the brain drain from south to north in the process, and to help them to improve their capacities to fulfil their inter-
national obligations in the field of asylum and migration; full attention will be given to the way individuals (migrants, refugees
or readmitted persons) are treated, which will be subject to strict controls.

This Community cooperation programme will finance appropriate actions which will join in a coherent way national and
regional Community cooperation and development strategies regarding the non-EU countries concerned and complete the
actions — in particular in the fields of migration, asylum, border control, refugees and displaced people — provided for in the
implementation of these strategies and financed from other Community instruments in the field of cooperation and development.

The respect of democratic principles and rule of law, as well as of human and minority rights and of fundamental freedoms, will
constitute an essential element for the application of this instrument. If necessary, and as far as possible, the actions financed
will be associated with measures aiming to strengthen democracy and the rule of law and the compliance with international
instruments in this field, including the Geneva Convention on Refugees.

Partners eligible for financial support under this appropriation may include regional and international organisations and agen-
cies (in particular, UN agencies), non-governmental organisations (NGOs) or other non-State actors, federal, national, provincial
and local governments of third countries, their departments and agencies, institutes, associations and public and private opera-
tors. As regards cooperation with the authorities of the States involved, all necessary steps will be taken to ensure that the mon-
ies allocated are not used for purposes other than those for which they are intended.

Remarks

The Council Presidency must ensure that the European Parliament is closely involved in all stages of the decision-making process. The joint con-
sultation meetings provided for under point 43 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 between the European Parliament, the Coun-
cil and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (OJ C 139, 14.6.2006, p. 1) will provide an opportunity to
establish a continuous dialogue between the two institutions on the main choices for and aspects of the Union’s Common Foreign and Security
Policy.

The regular joint consultation meetings should provide an opportunity for a real political dialogue, instead of which they are considered merely
an obligation to inform Parliament after the event.

Remarks

For conflict prevention and crisis management activities, by their nature, a capacity to react to relatively unforeseeable external
developments is required. In view of the diversity and scale of these activities, a substantial capacity to respond to situations
where conflict or crisis is imminent is required under the CFSP. ESDP crisis management operations in the area of monitoring
fall under this article. As with all actions financed under this budget chapter, monitoring and verification actions in crisis situ-
ations or in support of peace processes must be civilian in nature.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to finance measures which contribute to the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction
(nuclear, chemical and biological), primarily in the framework of the strategy against the proliferation of Weapons of Mass
Destruction of December 2003. This includes support for actions implemented by international organisations in this field. It is
also intended to finance operations to combat the destabilising accumulation and trafficking of small arms and light weapons
(SALW). New SALW actions are foreseen in new geographic areas, in particular in Eastern Europe.

Remarks

This appropriation is for funding preparatory measures to establish the conditions for EU actions in the field of the CFSP and
the adoption of the necessary legal instruments. It may cover evaluation and analysis measures (ex ante evaluation of means,
specific studies, organisation of meetings, fact-finding on the ground). In the field of EU crisis management operations and for
EU Special Representatives, in particular, preparatory measures may, inter alia, serve to fund exploratory work to assess the
operational requirements for an envisaged action, to provide for a rapid initial deployment of personnel and resources (e.g. mis-
sion expenses, purchase of equipment, pre-financing of running and insurance costs in the start-up phase), or to take the nec-
essary measures on the ground to prepare for the launching of the operation.

It also covers follow-up measures and audits of common foreign and security policy measures and the financing of any expen-
diture on the regularisation of previously closed measures.

This appropriation is also intended to cover expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications directly
linked to the achievement of the objective of the measures coming under Articles 19 03 01, 19 03 02, 19 03 03, 19 03 06
and 19 03 07.

ritories in which repression is a particular threat and in places where jail sentences are imposed for such activities, without
any judicial guarantees. Special attention should be given to this kind of situation in isolated states and to organisations
and projects supported by the European Parliament.

(c)

United States of America

The planned activities will contribute to implement the new transatlantic agenda (NTA), signed in December 1995 which pro-
vides the framework for EU relations with the United States of America. The NTA is complemented by a joint action plan under
which the EU and the United States of America have committed themselves to achieving a wide range of objectives concerning
bilateral relations and cooperative actions towards non–member countries, in multilateral forums and on global challenges.
Activities will focus on Public diplomacy and Outreach, to raise awareness and increase the visibility of the EU in the United
States of America by encouraging policy research and debate on EU/US relations, as well as actions to promote and invigorate
the political and economic dialogue with the US in areas of current interest such as democracy promotion, energy security.

Canada

The wide agenda of EU-Canada cooperation is reflected in the diversity of activities, which fit into the overall programme for
cooperation set up by the joint political declaration on EU-Canada relations and the EU-Canada Partnership Agenda. The Com-
mission will pursue the activities intended to enhance cooperation and to develop economic relations. Efforts to raise awareness
about the EU in Canada and the benefits of EU-Canada relations will be continued, through targeted Public diplomacy and Out-
reach initiatives.

Japan

The planned activities are intended to improve market access of EU goods and cross-border services to Japan through:

— measures aimed at improving knowledge of the Japanese market; the executive training programme (ETP), designed to build

up a pool of European executives able to communicate and operate in Japan’s business environment, will be continued,

— measures aimed at improving the commercial presence of EU industry in Japan;

— other measures facilitating access to the Japanese market (business linkages, partnership programmes, competitiveness

initiatives.

Continuing efforts will have to be made in view of converting the EU-Japan action plan adopted at the summit of December
2001 into concrete action (e.g. conferences, seminars, development of Europe centres in Japan, People-to-people links, educa-
tion cooperation, etc.).

Any revenue from financial participation by outside parties in promotional activities, notably the ETP programme, may lead to
additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom)
No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities
(OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1), as amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1995/2006 (OJ L 390, 30.12.2006, p. 1).

South Korea

The main activities will be the continuation of the executive training programme (ETP), intended to build up a pool of European
executives able to communicate and operate in the Korean business environment and other measures to promote economic
partnerships and business collaboration.

Australia and New Zealand

The Commission will consider activities in line with the objectives laid down in particular by the Joint Declaration of June 1997,
revised in 2003. As regards New Zealand, possible projects envisaged will be intended to reinforce cooperation in areas referred
to in the Joint Declaration of May 1999, revised in 2004, in order to meet the common objectives on economic cooperation,
political and security cooperation and various other areas of cooperation.

The focus will be on initiatives aimed at (i) reinforcing people-to-people links and education cooperation between the EU and
AUS/NZ; (ii) at fostering a better understanding of the EU, its initiatives, its policies in AUS/NZ in particular through curriculum
development, research and outreach activities and public diplomacy initiatives; (iii) other activities in pursuit of the objectives
set out in the joint political declarations.

Newly industrialised Asian Countries and Territories (Brunei, Chinese Taipei, Hong Kong, Macao and Singapore) and GCC countries (Kuwait,
Qatar, UAE, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia)

The planned initiatives are intended to foster a better understanding of the EU, its initiatives and its policies through public diplo-
macy and outreach activities; the promotion of economic partnerships and business collaboration; people-to-people links and
education cooperation.

The quick-release of financing through the Stability instrument is designed to address situations of urgency, crisis or emerging
crisis, a situation posing a threat to democracy, law and order, to the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms, to
the security and safety of individuals, situations threatening to escalate into armed conflict or to destabilise the country con-
cerned and where such situations are likely to jeopardise the beneficial effects of assistance and cooperation policies and pro-
grammes, their effectiveness and/or conditions for their proper implementation.

This appropriation is intended to cover an integrated programme of response measures designed to re-establish the minimum
conditions necessary for the conduct of assistance under the Community’s long term assistance instruments. Such programmes
will ensure a smooth link between relief, rehabilitation and development. They shall also provide complementary measures fall-
ing under Community competence relating to measures adopted under the CFSP, as part of a comprehensive EU approach
to crisis.

Operations covered will include:

A.

technical and logistical support for the efforts of international and regional organisations, state and non-state actors in pro-
moting confidence-building, mediation, dialogue and reconciliation,

B.

the relaunch of basic public services and economic activity,

C.

the initial physical and operational rehabilitation of basic infrastructure, including mine clearance,

D.

social reintegration, in particular of refugees, displaced persons and demobilised combatants,

E.

F.

the restoration of the institutional capacities needed for good governance and ensuring the rule of law and democracy,

assisting with the special needs of women and children affected by armed conflict, particularly rehabilitation of children
affected by war, including child soldiers,

Former Article 19 02 11

This appropriation is intended to cover new actions aimed at further the cooperation between the EU and third countries in
relation to global and regional trans-border challenges affecting the security and fundamental rights of the citizen.

Such measures will cover:

— strengthening the capacity of law enforcement and judicial and civil authorities involved in the fight against terrorism and
organised crime, including trafficking of drugs, people, firearms and explosive materials and in the effective control of ille-
gal trade and transit,

— support for measures to address threats to international transport, energy operations and critical infrastructure, including

passenger and freight traffic and energy distribution,

— ensuring an adequate response to sudden major threats to public health, such as epidemics with a potential trans-national

impact.

Such measures may be adopted under this instrument where they respond to an urgent need, depend on delivery through glo-
bal or trans-regional strategies and mechanisms for the sake of efficiency or effectiveness and are not otherwise implemented
within the policy and programming framework of the Regulations on Development Cooperation and Economic Cooperation,
European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument or the Integrated Pre-accession Instrument.

This appropriation is also intended to cover completion of payments for actions funded under former budget line 19 02 11

for actions in the field of migration designed, inter alia, to promote links between migrations and development, to combat
illegal immigration and to facilitate readmission. These actions will be supplemented by actions financed from the ENPI
allocation from the thematic line 19 02 01 01 (Cooperation in the areas of migration and asylum),

for regional integration and in particular the promotion of regional cooperation, including the environment field (regional
projects, decentralised cooperation programmes, cross-border cooperation with the Mediterranean regions of the Euro-
pean Union), as well as to support the Middle East peace process,

G.

for the cross-border and inter-culture dialogue by joint educational programmes, promotion of human rights, democracy
and the rule of law.

Horizontal visibility and information actions and measures directly linked to achievement of the objectives of EU action in Medi-
terranean third countries.

With the exception of humanitarian aid, assistance to governments should not be provided if the governments are responsible
for clear worsening of the situation in the field of democracy, the rule of law and respect for fundamental rights and freedoms.

The Commission will ensure that, when drawing up the relevant strategy papers and related programmes, attention is paid to
promoting regional cooperation in pursuit of the objectives of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership under the Barcelona Pro-
cess. The Commission will seek to maintain the total resources for regional and multilateral activities at the level achieved in the
2000 to 2006 period.

Part of this appropriation is intended to be used, with regard for the provisions of the Financial Regulation, for operations car-
ried out by senior volunteer experts from the European Union who come under ESSN (European Senior Services Network),
including technical assistance, advisory services and training in selected public or private enterprises.

In the provision of funding to partner countries due account will be taken of their social and financial situation and other rel-
evant factors in comparison with the least-developed Member States in the enlarged EU. With the exception of humanitarian
aid, assistance to governments will be provided on condition that the beneficiary country has an improving record as regards
the values of democracy, the rule of law and respect for fundamental human rights and freedoms. Programmes supporting these
aims will have priority in funding.

Part of this appropriation is to be used for actions to control and remove anti-personnel landmines (APL), explosive remnants
of war (ERW) and illicit small arms and light weapons (SALW).

This appropriation is intended to cover operations financed under the Community support programme for the Occupied Ter-
ritories of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip (1994 to 1998, 1999 to 2003 and 2004 to 2006), in the context of the Middle
East peace process.

The operations are intended to help the Palestinian population of the Territories, the central aim being the Territories’ social and
economic development, notably in respect of production (agriculture, fisheries and industry), urban and rural development,
health, water supply, the environment, training and education and the establishment of Palestinian institutions. The operations
should favour the use of renewable energies as much as possible.

Also charged to this item are the technical assistance required for undertaking the aid programmes and the cost of monitoring
and evaluating projects.

This appropriation also covers preparatory operations, again in the context of the peace process, concerning regional coopera-
tion between Israel and its neighbours, notably with regard to institutions, economic matters, water, the environment and
energy.

Also charged to this item is the financing of activities designed to create a public opinion favourable to the peace process, in
both camps, in particular:

— activities common to young Israelis and Palestinians,

— clear information in both languages,

— information activity and Israeli-Palestinian cooperation.

Part of this appropriation is to be used for the promotion of human rights, democracy and the rule of law.

This appropriation is intended to cover expenses arising from the Community’s contribution to the financing of the general bud-
get of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) (health, education and social services
programmes).

terranean non-member countries, including support for microbusinesses and small- and medium-sized enterprises, with a
view to the gradual creation of a free trade area and by promoting direct investment in the region (risk capital),

It is also intended to cover studies and analyses to improve knowledge of socioeconomic trends, particularly sectoral trends, in
the beneficiary countries and in the MEDA region as a whole, preparatory operations and pilot projects on information and
training, inter alia, in the fields of gender equality, the campaign against child discrimination, protection of the environment,
drugs and AIDS control and population issues.

In implementing the appropriations, the Commission shall take account of the situation in each country regarding respect for
the principles of democracy and the rule of law, respect for human rights and the rights of minorities, respect for international
law and respect for the territorial integrity and external borders of the Member States and Mediterranean non-member coun-
tries (resolution of the European Parliament of 20 September 1996 (OJ C 320, 28.10.1996, p. 261)).

This appropriation also covers pilot schemes in the social development field, notably to promote the participation of civil soci-
ety and its actors in the design and implementation of participative socioeconomic development programmes at local level.

A significant part of the support provided by this appropriation to local and regional business development is intended for trans-
ferring management skills and creating a positive financial environment that will enable small- and medium-sized enterprises to
realise their full employment and growth potential.

This appropriation also covers systematic monitoring and evaluation to assess the environmental impact of the development
schemes funded by this article and the publication of an annual assessment report.

This appropriation will also be used for a specific programme for cooperation in the field of the environment, notably for actions
in favour of sustainable development in the Mediterranean.

This appropriation also covers expenditure on operations and other measures of a horizontal nature designed to enhance the
profile or increase awareness of the European Union which are directly linked to the achievement of the objectives of the Euro-
pean Union’s action in the Mediterranean non-member countries.

Part of this appropriation may be allocated to cultural associations which promote enhanced cooperation between southern and
northern Mediterranean and Middle East countries through the creation of joint bodies in which the cultures of different Medi-
terranean countries are represented.

Part of the appropriation may be earmarked for cofinancing the initiative that northern Mediterranean regions are implement-
ing, with the introduction of the special development plan that was presented at the Barcelona Summit in November 2005. The
plan should be of a special nature and should be additional to the New Neighbourhood Policy measures and based mainly on
direct consultation of local players.

In the provision of funding to partner countries due account will be taken of their social and financial situation and other rel-
evant factors in comparison with the least-developed Member States in the enlarged EU. With the exception of humanitarian
aid, assistance to governments will be provided on condition that the beneficiary country has an improving record as regards
the values of democracy, the rule of law and respect for fundamental human rights and freedoms. Programmes supporting these
aims will have priority in funding.

It is also intended to provide support for a Mediterranean-Black Sea partnership to study the impact of tourism and urbanisa-
tion on marine pollution and for action to protect coastlines.

This appropriation is also intended to promote in the Euro-Mediterranean region, as part of the Euro-Mediterranean Partner-
ship, a human rights network of NGOs in the Maghreb and Mashreq countries and Israel. The network’s primary objectives will
be to promote:

— the human rights mechanisms within the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership,

— human rights education,

— freedom of expression and association,

— women’s rights,

— economic and social rights,

— an independent and properly functioning judicial system.

The purpose of development cooperation under this heading is primarily its contribution to achieving the millennium development goals (MDGs),
particularly Goal 1: to halve the proportion of people whose income is less than USD 1 per day and to halve the proportion of people who suffer
from hunger before 2015. The MDGs give an overall benchmark for this.

In accordance with the Commission Declaration concerning Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Parliament and of the
Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation (OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41) (the DCI), for coun-
tries defined as Official Development Assistance (ODA) recipients by the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), the Commission will
continue to report annually on the benchmark, used in the past but now superseded, of 35 % of assistance to developing countries to be allocated
to social infrastructure and services, recognising that the EU contribution must be seen as part of the overall donor support to the social sectors
and that a degree of flexibility must be the norm. Moreover, also in accordance with that Commission Declaration, the Commission will endeav-
our to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its allocated assistance under country programmes covered by the DCI will be dedicated, by 2009, to
basic and secondary education and basic health, through project, programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across
all geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance is involved.

Before July each year, the Commission will provide to the European Parliament and the Council an annual report on the Community’s develop-
ment policy and external assistance, meeting all the Commission’s regulatory reporting requirements and giving full details of development coop-
eration, especially the extent to which it has met its objectives. In particular, the report will:

— present the strategic objectives of the Union’s development policy and its contribution towards the previous 35 % benchmark for social infra-
structure and services and the current 20 % benchmark for basic and secondary education and basic health, and assess the efficiency and effec-
tiveness of cooperation, including progress made in coordinating aid, in improving the coherence of the Union’s strategy in its external
actions, and in integrating the cross-cutting issues such as gender, human rights, conflict prevention and the environment;

— present the main results of evaluation and monitoring reports, as an indication of the extent to which its actions are achieving their objectives;

— summarise the key features and events of co-operation in each geographical region; and

— provide financial information on the support given to each sector, in accordance with OECD reporting criteria.

Remarks

The appropriations in the reserve will be released when the Commission submits to the European Parliament its programming
for the funds which clearly shows that 20 % of overall spending will be allocated to basic and secondary education and basic
health in accordance with the Commission Declaration concerning Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 establishing the
Development Cooperation Instrument (DCI).

This appropriation is intended to cover cooperation schemes in developing countries in Latin America in order to:

— improve basic health and basic education by endeavouring, in accordance with the Commission Declaration concerning
Article 5 of the DCI, to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its allocated assistance under country programmes covered by
the DCI will be dedicated, by 2009, to basic and secondary education and basic health, through project, programme or
budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across all geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flex-
ibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance is involved,

— assist institutional support and help consolidate democracy, human rights and the rule of law,

— combat poverty and social exclusion, with particular attention being paid to the poverty trap faced by disabled people,

— support microfinance programmes,

— support regional integration,

— improve the standard of education, health and transport infrastructures,

— promote the increased use of information and communications technologies,

— foster regional integration,

— support capacity-building, in particular in the least-developed countries, to help them to integrate better into the multilat-

eral trading system, including improving their ability to participate in the WTO,

— encourage the transfer of know-how and promote contact and collaboration between business players on both sides,

— promote a more favourable climate for economic expansion and hence development in the countries concerned,

— promote the sustainable use of natural resources, sustainable energy and the combating of climate change,

— support disaster prevention and risk reduction, including climate-change-related hazards,

— support trade unions, NGOs and local initiatives to monitor the impact of European investments on the national economy,
particularly codes of conduct and sector agreements incorporating respect for labour, environmental, social and human
rights standards.

This appropriation is also intended to cover measures to promote the self-sufficiency of refugees, displaced persons and other
population groups who have left their country of origin or residence because of fighting, lack of security or other man-made
crises, notably in Colombia. Measures may be financed jointly with non-governmental organisations and international
organisations.

The appropriation also covers measures to initiate the return to a normal life of people in developing countries in the aftermath
of critical situations arising out of natural disasters, violent conflicts or other crises. In particular, operations may cover pro-
grammes and projects implemented by non-governmental development organisations and other civil society players which pro-
mote the participation of the beneficiary population at every level of the decision-making and implementation process.

Part of this appropriation is intended to be used, with due regard for the provisions of the Financial Regulation, for operations
carried out by senior volunteer experts from the European Union who come under the ESSN (European Senior Services Net-
work), including technical assistance, advisory services and training in selected public or private sector enterprises.

With the exception of humanitarian aid, assistance to governments should not be provided if the governments are responsible
for clear worsening of the situation in the field of democracy, the rule of law and respect for fundamental rights and freedoms.

Part of this appropriation is to be used for actions to control and remove anti-personnel landmines (APL), explosive remnants
of war (ERW) and illicit small arms and light weapons (SALW).

TITLE 19 — EXTERNAL RELATIONS

CHAPTER 19 10 — RELATIONS WITH ASIA, CENTRAL ASIA AND EAST OF JORDAN COUNTRIES (cont’d)

Remarks

In accordance with the Commission Declaration concerning Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the European Par-
liament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation (OJ L 378,
27.12.2006, p. 41) (the DCI), for countries defined as Official Development Assistance (ODA) recipients‚ by the OECD Devel-
opment Assistance Committee (DAC), the Commission will continue to report annually on the benchmark, used in the past but
now superseded, of 35 % of assistance to developing countries to be allocated to social infrastructure and services, recognising
that the EU contribution must be seen as a part of the overall donor support to the social sectors and that a degree of flexibility
must be the norm.

Moreover, also in accordance with that Commission Declaration, the Commission will endeavour to ensure that a benchmark
of 20 % of its allocated assistance under country programmes covered by the DCI will be dedicated, by 2009, to basic and sec-
ondary education and basic health, through project, programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average
across all geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional
assistance is involved.

Before July each year, the Commission will provide to the European Parliament and the Council an annual report on the Com-
munity’s development policy and external assistance, meeting all the Commission’s regulatory reporting requirements and giv-
ing full details of development cooperation, especially the extent to which it has met its objectives. In particular, the report will:

— present the strategic objectives of the Union’s development policy and its contribution towards the previous 35 % bench-
mark for social infrastructure and services and the current 20 % benchmark for basic and secondary education and for basic
health, and assess the efficiency and effectiveness of cooperation, including progress made in coordinating aid, in improv-
ing the coherence of the Union’s strategy in its external actions, and in integrating the cross-cutting issues such as gender,
human rights, conflict prevention and the environment,

— present the main results of evaluation and monitoring reports, as an indication of the extent to which its actions are achiev-

ing their objectives,

— summarise the key features and events of cooperation in each geographical region, and

— provide financial information on the support given to each sector, in accordance with OECD reporting criteria.

Cooperation with developing countries in Asia

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover development schemes in Asian developing countries, in particular the poorest of them,
aimed at tackling macroeconomic and sectoral problems. Emphasis is placed on operations influencing economic organisation
and institutional development, the strengthening of civil society, including operations concerning democratisation, universal
access for children of both sexes and women to primary and secondary education, the environment, tropical forests, anti-drugs
campaigns, regional cooperation, disaster prevention and reconstruction measures, as well as the promotion of sustainable
energy and information and communications technology.

The Commission produces an annual report covering all its external aid activities.

Also charged to this article is expenditure on operations and other measures of a horizontal nature to enhance the profile
or increase awareness of European Union cooperation with Asian developing countries.

It is also intended to cover support for the development of civil society and, in particular, support for the activities of non-
governmental organisations promoting and defending the rights of vulnerable groups, such as women, children, ethnic minori-
ties and disabled people.

Utilisation of this appropriation is dependent on observance of the principles underpinning European Union action.

The appropriations is also indented with a view to the mutual interest of the European Union and its partners, to cover various
kinds of operation involving technical assistance, training, technology transfer and institutional back-up in the fields of trade
promotion, energy (notably renewable energy), environment, management, etc., in order to:

— improve the economic, social, cultural, legal and regulatory context and facilitate economic relations and trade between

the European Union and Asia,

— foster regional integration,

— support capacity-building, in particular in the least developed countries, to help them to better integrate into the multilat-

eral trading system, including their abilities to participate in the WTO,

— encourage the transfer of know-how and promote contact and collaboration between business players on both sides,

— promote a more favourable climate for economic expansion and hence development in the countries concerned,

— promote the increased use of information and communications technologies.

It also covers education for children affected by war or natural disasters.

These measures may be financed jointly with non-governmental organisations and international organisations.

This appropriation is intended to also cover Community operations in the framework of the Afghanistan reconstruction process.

The Commission will monitor compliance with the conditions for the Community contribution to this process, notably full
implementation of the letter and the spirit of the Bonn-Petersberg Agreement. It will keep the budgetary authority informed
about its findings and conclusions.

This appropriation is also intended to support the Afghanistan national drug control strategy, including halting the production
of opium in Afghanistan, and the disruption and destruction of the opium networks and illegal export routes to European
countries.

Part of this appropriation is intended to be used to improve the situation of women, with priority for actions in the fields of
health and education, and to support their active involvement in all areas and at all levels of decision-making, with due regard
for the provisions of the Financial Regulation.

vides some 170 participants a year, chosen by the delegations, with the opportunity of experiencing contact with the Euro-
pean Union by visiting the European Parliament and the Commission as part of a made-to-measure individual programme
of visits based on a theme,

Decentralised measures carried out by delegations in non-member countries and vis-à-vis international organisations

In accordance with the communication goals laid down for each region and each country, the delegations propose an annual
communication plan, which, once approved by headquarters, is assigned a budgetary allocation.

These measures fall into six categories:

— newsletters,

— websites,

— relations with the media (press conferences, seminars, radio programmes, etc.),

— information products (other publications, graphic material, etc.),

— organisation of events, including cultural activities,

— other activities. As of 2007, this will include the management of the network of information points currently known as

‘European Documentation Centres’.

TITLE 19 — EXTERNAL RELATIONS

CHAPTER 19 11 — POLICY STRATEGY AND COORDINATION FOR ‘EXTERNAL RELATIONS’ POLICY AREA (cont’d)

19 11 03 (cont’d)

The areas which will be covered by information activities include those below, but may embrace other aspects of the EU’s exter-
nal relations, particularly in relation to the future of the EU’s external policy.

— Address a weak public perception of external assistance. The objective is to make clear that external assistance is an inte-

gral part of what the EU does and is one of the crucial policies that define the EU and its role in the world.

— The ‘European Neighbourhood Policy’ (ENP). The (ENP) was launched on the basis of a communication from the Commis-
sion to the Council and the European Parliament on 11 March 2003 (COM(2003) 104 final), ‘Wider Europe — Neigh-
bourhood: A new framework for relations with our eastern and southern neighbours’. The actions which are part of this
activity will continue to provide information on the activities of the European Union in the framework of its ‘European
Neighbourhood Policy’.

— Information activities, to be carried out in cooperation with the Council, on the aims and development of the common

foreign and security policy.

The Commission has adopted two communications to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Com-
mittee and the Committee of the Regions on a new framework for cooperation in activities concerning the information and com-
munication policy of the European Union (COM(2001) 354 final and COM(2002) 350). They propose an interinstitutional
framework for cooperation between the institutions and with the Member States for the development of a communication
and information policy strategy for the European Union.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission,
lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of EU information and communication policy. It
coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion
on the priorities for the following years on the basis of information provided by the Commission.

Irrespective of the beneficiary of the measure, no administrative expenditure against this article is authorised.

Legal basis

Task resulting from the Commission’s prerogatives at institutional level, as provided for in Article 49(6) of Council Regulation
(EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European
Communities (OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1), as amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1995/2006 (OJ L 390, 30.12.2006,
p. 1).

Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2001 regarding public access to Euro-
pean Parliament, Council and Commission documents (OJ L 145, 31.5.2001, p. 43).

Overall objectives

This domain aims to contribute, in the general interest, to the harmonious development of world trade, the gradual removal of restrictions to inter-
national trade and the reduction of customs barriers.

An important pillar of the European Union’s economic relations with the rest of the world, it contributes to the Union’s broader goals of pro-
moting sustainable development and assuming a larger role in multilateral governance. It covers all the main aspects of trade in goods and ser-
vices (tariff and non-tariff barriers, trade protection measures, in particular in cases of dumping and subsidies, export credits) and the important
issues of intellectual property, investment and competition.

This policy area comprises two operational activities: trade policy and anti-dumping strategy.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to support the following actions.

Initiatives connected with conduct of new multi- and bilateral trade negotiations (in particular, the Doha Development Agenda)

Actions aiming to ensure that EU policy conception is based on comprehensive and up-to-date expert information, and is sup-
ported by a programme of information and coalition-building, so as to strengthen the Commission’s negotiating position in
Doha Development Agenda negotiations and build coalitions for their successful completion, including:

— expert studies and seminars in connection with the preparation of policy and negotiating positions,

— trade sustainability impact assessments, designed to assess the impact of trade negotiations on sustainable development,
and, where necessary, propose flanking measures to combat any negative outcomes for specific countries or sectors,

— development and implementation of a consistent and comprehensive communication and information strategy, promot-
ing the Community’s trade policy and raising awareness on the detail and objectives of Community trade policy, both
within and outside the EU.

Legal and other expert assistance required in implementation of existing trade agreements

Actions to ensure that the Community’s trading partners effectively adhere to and comply with obligations arising under the
World Trade Organisation (WTO) and other multilateral and bilateral agreements, including:

— expert studies, including inspection visits, as well as specific investigations, and seminars on implementation by third coun-

tries of their obligations under international trade agreements,

— legal expertise, especially on questions of foreign law, required to facilitate defence by the Community of its position in

WTO dispute-settlement cases,

— other expert studies necessary for the preparation, management and follow-up to WTO dispute settlement cases.

Trade-related technical assistance/training and other capacity-building actions

Actions aiming to strengthen the capacity of developing countries to participate in international trade negotiations, to imple-
ment international trade agreements and to participate in the world trading system, including:

— projects involving training and capacity-building actions aimed at developing country officials and operators, mainly in the

field of Sanitary and Phyto-sanitary (SPS) measures,

— the management and further development of a help desk to provide to developing countries industry information on access
to EU markets, to facilitate efforts by such industry to take advantage of market access opportunities offered by the inter-
national trading system,

— trade-related technical assistance programmes arranged in the forum of the WTO and other multilateral organisations, in

particular WTO Trust Funds,

— reimbursement of the expenses of participants in forums and conferences designed to build awareness and expertise in trade

affairs among developing country nationals,

— expenditure incurred by Member State experts advising developing country officials and operators on compliance with SPS

and other trade related measures.

Activities related to the Community’s market access strategy

Actions in support of the Community’s market access strategy, which aims at removing or lowering barriers to trade, identify-
ing trade restrictions in third countries and, where appropriate, removing obstacles to trade. These actions may include:

— provision of a market access database, available to economic operators via the Internet, listing trade barriers and other basic
information affecting EU exports and EU exporters; purchase of the necessary information, data and documentation for
this database,

— specific analysis of the various obstacles to trade in key markets, including analysis of the implementation by third coun-
tries of their obligations under international trade agreements in connection with the preparation of negotiations,

— conferences, seminars and other information activities (e.g. production and distribution of studies, information packs, pub-

lications and leaflets) to inform business about trade barriers and trade policy instruments,

— support to European industry for the organisation of activities specifically geared to market access issues.

Activities related to the management of the SIGL system (Système Intégré de Gestion de Licences)

Expenditure relating to the implementation of the action programme for administering quantitative restrictions and surveil-
lance measures, and in particular the financing of measures for monitoring licence management systems and the coordinated
development of the use of computerised procedures (SIGL system).

This support will take the form of the financing of expenditure on the implementation and operation of common systems and
the definition of common guidelines for training and technical assistance for implementation. The operating expenditure also
covers contributions to the functioning of systems (hardware, software, maintenance), the financing of information and train-
ing measures for system users and the financing of technical assistance.

Activities with a view to promoting the Community’s external trade policy through a process of structured dialogue with key opinion formers

The Community’s trade policy will also be supported by the organisation of specific forums and meetings with a view to pro-
moting dialogue with opinion formers on issues of external trade. The Commission support for these actions may involve con-
ference or event-related services, as well as the reimbursement of the travel expenses incurred by individuals taking part in these
actions.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to fund multilateral programmes and initiatives in the field of trade related assistance to strengthen
the capacity of developing countries to participate effectively in the multilateral trading system and regional trading arrange-
ments and to improve their trade performance.

Multilateral initiatives and programmes to be funded under this appropriation will support the following actions:

Assistance for trade policy, participation in negotiations and implementation of trade agreements

Actions to strengthen the capacity of developing countries to formulate their trade policy and to strengthen the institutions
involved in trade policy, including comprehensive and updated trade reviews and assistance in integrating trade into their respec-
tive policies for economic growth and development.

Actions to strengthen the capacity of developing countries to participate effectively in international trade negotiations and
to implement international trade agreements.

This assistance is primarily targeted at the public sector.

Trade development

Actions to reduce supply-side constraints which impact directly on the ability of developing countries to exploit their interna-
tional trading potential, including, in particular, private-sector development.

This appropriation will be complementary to the EC geographical programmes and should only cover multilateral initiatives
and programmes that offer real added value to the EC geographical programmes such as the Integrated Framework for LDCs or
the Standards and Trade Development Facility (STDF).

DEVELOPMENT AND RELATIONS WITH AFRICAN, CARIBBEAN AND PACIFIC (ACP) STATES

Overall objectives

The policy area covers a wide range of activities from political relations and policy formulation to programming and implementing cooperation
programmes. It includes both budgetary appropriations under Heading 4 of the financial framework and funds under the various European Devel-
opment Funds (EDF) for the African, Caribbean and Pacific States as well as the overseas countries and territories.

The amount of the EDF varies from year to year due to the five-year implementation cycle, and corresponds to a yearly average of approximately
EUR 2 950 million in commitment appropriations. This is equivalent to about 55 % of total appropriations under Heading 4.

This implies that significant human resources, which are employed to implement the EDF and the complex operations under the Cotonou Agree-
ment, are to be taken into account in the overall human resources requirements in this policy area.

This appropriation is also intended to cover the cost of the measures that are essential for implementing food aid within the
requisite timescale and in a way which meets the needs of the recipients, satisfies the requirement to achieve the greatest pos-
sible degree of cost-effectiveness and provides greater transparency.

These measures include:

— transport and distribution of aid, including any related operations such as insurance, loading, unloading, coordination, etc.,

not included in transport contracts but stemming from them,

— back-up measures that are essential for the programming, coordination and optimum implementation of the aid, the cost
of which is not covered by other appropriations, e.g. exceptional transport and storage operations, processing or prepa-
ration of foodstuffs on the spot, disinfection, consultants’ services, technical assistance and equipment directly involved in
providing the aid (tools, utensils, fuel, etc.),

— supervision and coordination of food aid operations, notably the terms for the supply, delivery, distribution and use of the

products involved, including the use of counterpart funds,

— pilot schemes concerning new forms of transport, packaging or storage, studies of food aid operations and campaigns

to increase public awareness,

— storage of food (including administrative costs, future operations, with or without options, training of technicians, pur-

chase of packaging and mobile storage units, cost of maintaining and repairing stores, etc.),

— measures and operations to supervise and implement the European Union’s food aid programme.

Measures may be financed under the current financial year’s programme or, where appropriate, under previous programmes.

This appropriation is intended to cover the cost of purchasing food products and, where appropriate, other products for devel-
oping countries, where appropriate in the form of seeds, under the Food Aid Convention 1999, for this financial year’s pro-
gramme and, if necessary, previous programmes.

The following is an indicative list of products covered.

A.

Food products

— cereals or cereal-based products, in the form of seeds where appropriate,

— milk powder or equivalent products rich in protein,

— vegetable oil,

— sugar,

— other products, e.g. pulses, fish, protein-enriched biscuits, seeds, etc.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to increase the capacity of local authorities to act, mobilise and organise, to promote dialogue
between government and non-governmental players. It is intended to cover the financing of social and economic development
operations to benefit the poorest sections of the population in developing countries, in particular vulnerable groups. It supports
sustainable development initiatives taken by local public authorities in developing countries, possibly in association with their
European Union counterparts.

It is intended, in this context, mainly to cover information, educational, capitalisation and communication schemes so as to
enable potential players to better assimilate the decentralised cooperation approach and to take a more active role in consulta-
tions regarding Community programmes and in the implementation of decentralised cooperation.

This appropriation will fund information and communication technologies that can assist with the process of decentralised
cooperation.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to provide financial support to actions in developing countries under the thematic programmes
and will focus on actions in education, particularly on providing universal, free access to education, the enrolment and school-
ing of girls, and human resources in education. This appropriation should be used to give extra funds to those countries that
have prioritised education within their Country Strategy Papers.

It is noted that, during the legislative negotiations on the Development Cooperation Instrument, the Commission promised to
respect the following minimum percentage breakdown in their programming of commitment appropriations for the thematic
programme on Human and Social Development for the multiannual period 2007 to 2013:

A.

a minimum of 50 % will be allocated to health;

B.

a minimum of 12 % will be allocated to education;

C.

a minimum of 14 % will be allocated to other aspects of human and social development;

D.

a minimum of 2 % will be allocated to gender.

As these minimum allocations apply to the total multiannual allocation, they need not necessarily be respected for each annual
budget during the period 2007 to 2013.

This appropriation is intended to cover a Community contribution to actions to improve reproductive and sexual health in
developing countries and to secure respect for the rights related thereto.

Financial assistance shall be provided with a view to promoting the recognition of reproductive and sexual rights, safe moth-
erhood and universal access to a comprehensive range of safe and reliable reproductive and sexual health services.

In the allocation of such funding and expertise, priority shall be given to the poorest and least developed countries and the most
disadvantaged sections of the population within developing countries and to action that complements and reinforces both the
policies and capacities of developing countries and the assistance provided through other instruments of development
cooperation.

The purposes of the activities carried out shall be to:

— secure the right of women, men and adolescents to good reproductive and sexual health,

— enable women, men and adolescents to have access to a comprehensive range of safe and reliable reproductive and sexual

healthcare services and products,

— reduce maternal mortality rates, with particular reference to the countries and populations where these are highest,

— combat female genital mutilation.

Financial support shall be given to projects or programmes specifically designed to attain the objectives described above.

This appropriation is intended to finance a preparatory action to combat poverty-related diseases other than HIV/AIDS, malaria
and tuberculosis. It is in particular intended to contribute to immunisation programmes against illnesses such as measles, diph-
theria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, Haemophilus influenzae B, yellow fever, meningitis and pneumococcus-induced diseases
by complementing vaccination efforts under way in some developing countries.

CHAPTER 21 05 — HUMAN AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT (cont’d)

21 05 03 (cont’d)

The preparatory actions aim through targeted and innovative measures to identify and provide the conditions for better coor-
dination between the EU, the Member States and the main international public-private partnerships involved in the field of pub-
lic health and immunisation as well as to secure more effective investment in health systems (prevention, education, capacity-
building) in developing countries.

This appropriation is intended to cover a Community contribution to the implementation of the European Community action
programme for targeting the three major communicable diseases, namely HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis, in developing
countries.

Under that programme, the Community shall provide financial assistance and appropriate expertise with a view to promoting
investment in health, poverty reduction and equitable economic growth in developing countries.

In the allocation of such funding and expertise, priority shall be given to the poorest and least developed countries and the most
disadvantaged sections of the population, especially women and girls, within developing countries, and also to action that
complements and reinforces both the policies and capacities of developing countries and the assistance provided through other
instruments of development cooperation. These activities ought to contribute to innovative solutions which will improve the
performance of current practices related to the fight against poverty-related diseases.

The purpose of all the activities carried out shall be to:

— optimise the impact of existing interventions, services, commodities and information targeted at the major communicable

diseases affecting the poorest populations,

— increase the affordability of key pharmaceuticals,

— increase research and development, including vaccines and clinical trials, microbiocides and innovative treatments,

— increase activities in the area of disease prevention, including VCCT testing, targeted information campaigns and counsel-

ling among high-risk groups,

— promote awareness-raising campaigns, education, information and communication efforts aimed at reducing risk-taking

behaviour,

— integrate gender sensitivity in HIV/AIDS programming and the development of female-initiated and female-controlled pre-

vention methods as well as to integrate men into programmes focusing on the impact on women and girls,

— promote leadership awareness training.

The appropriation is also intended to fund malaria vaccination programmes.

Community financial support shall be given to specific projects designed to further the objectives described above, including
support for global initiatives targeting the major communicable diseases in the context of poverty reduction, notably the Global
Fund to fight HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria which came into operation on 29 January 2002.

This appropriation is intended as a pilot project to support national programmes of aid for basic education in developing coun-
tries through relevant action and analyses.

This appropriation is intended to promote cultural diversity by supporting cooperation in the field of culture, including:

— activities supporting mutual understanding between different cultures within partner countries,

— exchanges allowing for greater cultural understanding between developing countries and the European Union.

Primary education

This appropriation is intended to finance sectoral budget support targeted at ending school and uniform fees in primary edu-
cation, especially for girls. The limited number of beneficiary countries will be chosen from the list of countries identified by the
UN Millennium Project as potential candidates for MDG fast-tracking and in accordance with the rules applied by the Commis-
sion for the countries benefiting from budget support, with particular reference to their ability to fulfil criteria of good gover-
nance and sound financial management.

Part of this appropriation is intended to finance preparation of the beneficiary countries to offset the costs of ending the user
fees by other means of public financing after the end of this temporary EU action.

School meals

This appropriation is intended to finance sectoral budget support targeted at school meals for children in primary schools. This
measure complements the Quick Win action to end school and uniform fees and will be conducted with the same countries,
chosen from the list of countries identified by the UN Millennium Project as potential candidates for MDG fast-tracking and in
accordance with the rules applied by the Commission for the countries benefiting from budget support, in particular their abil-
ity to fulfil criteria of good governance and sound financial management.

Part of this appropriation is intended to finance preparation of the beneficiary countries to organise public financing for school
meals after the end of this temporary EU action.

Food security

This appropriation is intended to finance aid to smallholder farmers for a massive replenishment of soil nutrients on land with
nutrient-depleted soils, through free or subsidised distribution of chemical fertilisers and through agroforestry.

The countries benefiting from this action will be chosen from the list of countries identified by the UN Millennium Project as
potential candidates for MDG fast-tracking.

This appropriation is intended to increase the capacity of civil society players and local authorities to act, mobilise and organise,
to promote dialogue between government and non-governmental players. It is intended to cover the financing of social and eco-
nomic development operations to benefit the poorest sections of the population in developing countries, in particular vulner-
able groups. It supports sustainable development initiatives taken by the local public authorities, community-based organisa-
tions and associations or groupings in developing countries, possibly in association with their European Union counterparts.

It is intended, in this context, mainly to cover information, educational, capitalisation and communication schemes so as to
enable potential agents to better assimilate the decentralised cooperation approach and to take a more active role in consulta-
tions regarding Community programmes and in the implementation of decentralised cooperation.

This appropriation will fund information and communication technologies that can assist with the process of decentralised
cooperation.

This appropriation was intended to enable the Commission to establish in 2002 a mechanism to support capacity-building in
developing countries for information and communication technologies (ICT) and sustainable energy. The programme should
be well coordinated with other donor initiatives on ICT and sustainable energy.

From 2003 onwards, the sustainable energy component is addressed through Article 06 04 02, whereas the ICT component is
addressed through national/regional programmes whenever relevant.

The Commission should also use this appropriation to work with the United Nations Development programme on joint pilot
projects and ensure that the full benefits of ICT and sustainable energy technologies are explored and properly highlighted.

Remarks

New chapter

For countries defined as Official Development Assistance (ODA) recipients by the OECD Development Assistance Committee
(DAC), a benchmark of 35 % of annual commitments has in the past been allocated to social infrastructure, mainly education
and health, but also including macroeconomic assistance with social sector conditionality, recognising that the EU contribution
must be seen as part of the overall donor support to the social sectors and that a degree of flexibility should be the norm. The
Commission will continue to report on this benchmark.

Moreover, in parallel with the Commission Declaration concerning Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 of the Euro-
pean Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation
(OJ L 378, 27.12.2006, p. 41), the Commission will endeavour to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its allocated assistance
under country programmes covered by the Development Cooperation Instrument (DCI) will be dedicated, by 2009, to basic
education and basic health, through project, programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across all
geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance
is involved.

Before July each year, the Commission will provide the European Parliament and the Council with an annual report on the Com-
munity’s development policy and external assistance, meeting all the Commission’s regulatory reporting requirements and giv-
ing full details of development cooperation, especially the extent to which it has met its objectives. In particular, the report will:

— present the strategic objectives of the Union’s development policy and its contribution towards the previous 35 % bench-
mark for social infrastructure and services and the current 20 % benchmark for basic health and basic education, and assess
the efficiency and effectiveness of cooperation, including progress made in coordinating aid, in improving the coherence
of the Union’s strategy in its external actions, and in integrating the cross-cutting issues such as gender, human rights, con-
flict prevention and the environment;

— present the main results of evaluation and monitoring reports, as an indication of the extent to which its actions are achiev-

ing their objectives;

— summarise the key features and events of cooperation in each geographical region, and

— provide financial information on the support given to each sector, in accordance with OECD reporting criteria.

The report should also contain information on how budget support has contributed to the MDGs. Budget support will depend
on prior demonstration of sufficient institutional capacity and compliance with detailed criteria for the custody and use of funds
in the recipient country. The criteria must be stated in the annual report, and compliance therewith must be assessed in the
report.

After the report has been presented the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission will enter into a dialogue on the
results and on how further progress can be made towards achieving the objectives.

The appropriation also covers the protection and promotion of human rights, including children’s rights, which are fully inte-
grated into programming, including in the country strategy papers (CSPs), national indicative programmes (NIPs) and mid-term
reviews.

Remarks

Former Article 21 03 17

In accordance with the Trade, Development and Cooperation Agreement (TDCA) between the European Union and South
Africa, and with Regulation (EC) No 1726/2000 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 June 2000, as amended
by Regulation 1934/2004 of the European Parliament and the Council (which expires at the end of 2006 and will be replaced
by the new general instrument for Development Cooperation).

Development cooperation — the ‘European Programme for Reconstruction and Development’ (EPRD) — is implemented
through CSP/MIPs in the framework of the TDCA and is financed from Community budget. For the period 2007 to 2013 the
programme will be implemented under a new Country Strategy Paper and Multiannual Programme.

This appropriation is intended primarily to cover the financing of development cooperation projects and programmes with
South Africa, which contribute:

— to improving basic health and basic education and help achieve the Millennium Development Goals by endeavouring to
ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of allocated assistance will be dedicated, by 2009, to basic and secondary education and
basic health, through project, programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across all geographi-
cal areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance is
involved.

— to South Africa’s harmonious and sustainable economic and social development through programmes and measures

designed to reduce poverty and encourage economic growth which benefits the poor,

— to its continued integration into the world economy,

— to consolidate the foundations laid for a democratic society and a State governed by the rule of law in which human rights

and fundamental freedoms are fully respected.

Programmes shall focus on the fight against poverty and achieving the Millennium Development Goals, taking into account the
needs of the previously disadvantaged communities and integrate gender and environmental dimensions of development. Spe-
cial attention shall be paid to the strengthening of institutional capacities.

Development cooperation will focus mainly on:

— Strengthening capacity for and support to service delivery to the poor at provincial and municipal level (health, HIV/AIDS,

education, housing, infrastructures such as water and sanitation, sustainable energy, communication).

— Support to South Africa’s second economy, with a specific view to employment generation (addressing both labour demand

and supply issues, such as skills development).

— Support to governance (both in the public and non-public domains).

Part of this appropriation is to be used for actions to control and remove anti-personnel landmines (APL), explosive remnants
of war (ERW) and illicit small arms and light weapons (SALW).

Remarks

Former Article 21 04 02

Action A: coordination

Budget financing provides the Commission with the means of support it needs to prepare, formulate and follow up coordina-
tion measures under its development policy. Policy coordination is crucial to the consistency, complementarity and effective-
ness of aid.

Coordination measures are essential in defining and shaping European development policy at a strategic and programming level.
The specific nature of European development policy is directly enshrined in the Treaties (Articles 177 and 180 of the EC Treaty).
Community aid is complementary to the national policies of the Member States in the sphere of development cooperation
and complementarity cannot work without coordination. Article 180 of the Treaty requires the Commission to act as coordi-
nator of national policies and coordinator of EU objectives with national objectives in the area of development cooperation and
assistance.

TITLE 21 — DEVELOPMENT AND RELATIONS WITH AFRICAN, CARIBBEAN AND PACIFIC (ACP) STATES

CHAPTER 21 08 — POLICY STRATEGY AND COORDINATION FOR ‘DEVELOPMENT AND RELATIONS WITH ACP STATES’
POLICY AREA (cont’d)

21 08 02 (cont’d)

Coordination is not only a major factor in the Commission’s value added vis-à-vis the policies of the Member States but also a
priority in the work schedule at the point where the agendas of the European Union and the international community intersect.
It therefore reflects a steadily growing demand from the other European institutions, as recognised by the Member States and by
the European Parliament at the European Council in Barcelona in March 2002.

This appropriation covers various forms of action:

— effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, impact and viability studies in the area of coordination,

— meetings of experts and exchanges between the Commission and Member States,

— monitoring of operations in the course of implementation,

— support measures to improve the quality of the monitoring of ongoing operations and the preparation of future operations,

— measures to support external initiatives in the sphere of coordination,

— the preparation of common positions, statements and initiatives,

— the organisation of events relating to coordination,

— dissemination of information through the production of publications and the development of information systems.

Action B: raising awareness

This appropriation covers the financing of activities designed to draw attention to action by the EU and the Member States in
the development field and to raise public awareness of development issues. Every activity financed under this article must include
the following two components, which are complementary in the Commission’s view:

— an ‘information’ component, designed to promote the various activities which the EU undertakes in the development aid
field and the activities which it conducts in partnership with the Member States and other international institutions,

— an ‘awareness-raising’ component, covering public opinion in the Community and in the ACP States (78 countries). These
activities are targeted primarily at the young. An immediate priority of this component is also to raise public awareness in
the Member States about the Community’s action in the development cooperation field.

These activities consist mainly, though not exclusively, of financial support for schemes in the audiovisual, publications, semi-
nars and events fields as applied to development, the production of information material, the development of information sys-
tems, and also the Lorenzo Natali prize for journalism in the development field.

These activities are directed at public and private sector partners, and at the EU’s representations and delegations in the Member
States, the accession countries and the ACP States.

The appropriation also covers the introduction of a system which gives access to the public to follow via the Internet the progress
of EU development aid from the decision on the budget to the implementation of the actual project in the developing country.

Irrespective of the beneficiary of the measure, no administrative expenditure against this article is authorised.

Overall objectives

This policy area governs the actions, measures and initiatives necessary to ensure that candidate and potential candidate countries stay on course
to achieve the targets set with and for them by the European Council.

This will involve:

— full accession negotiations with Turkey and Croatia and further steps towards the opening of accession negotiations with the former Yugo-

slav Republic of Macedonia which was granted candidate status by the December 2005 European Council,

— the intensification of the Stabilisation and Association Process in the western Balkans, following the outcome of the talks on the status of

Kosovo and the referendum in Montenegro; implementation of association agreements with all the countries in the region,

— the launch of the single Instrument for Pre-Accession in all candidate and potential candidate countries in support of their reforms and prepa-

rations for future membership,

— the support to the reunification of Cyprus, with the implementation of the aid package to the Turkish Cypriot community,

— the promotion of a dialogue between civil societies in member states and candidate and potential candidate countries as an integral part of

the pre-accession processes,

— an effective information and communication policy on enlargement both in candidate and potential candidate countries and in Member States,

— the programming of the transition facilities for Romania and Bulgaria.

The Commission will also continue to phase out the pre-accession programmes and transition facilities in all new Member States.

This appropriation is intended to cover administrative costs directly linked to the implementation of the pre-accession pro-
gramme (IPA), in particular:

— expenditure on technical and administrative assistance which the Commission may delegate to an implementing agency

governed by Community law,

— expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission

under ad hoc service contracts for the mutual benefit of the beneficiaries and the Commission,

— expenditure on support staff in delegations (contract staff, detached national experts, individual experts, local staff and local
technical assistance staff) for the purposes of devolved programme management in the Commission’s delegations in non-
member countries or for internalisation of tasks of phased-out technical assistance offices, as well as the additional logis-
tical and infrastructure cost, such as cost of training, meetings, missions, IT and telecommunications and of renting directly
caused by the presence in the delegation of the temporary staff remunerated from the appropriations in this item,

— expenditure on temporary support staff (contract staff, auxiliaries, detached national experts, staff from employment agen-
cies) at headquarters intended to take over the tasks previously conferred on dismantled technical assistance offices; expen-
diture on temporary support staff at headquarters is limited to EUR 1 200 000 and this estimate is based on a provisional
annual unit cost per man-year, of which 97 % is accounted for by remuneration for the staff concerned and 3 % by the
additional cost of training, meetings, missions, IT and telecommunications relating to those staff members,

— expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, activities entrusted to NGOs and in particular women’s organisations, infor-

mation and publications directly linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme.

This appropriation covers expenditure on administrative management under Articles 22 02 01, 22 02 02, 22 02 03, 22 02 04,
22 02 05 and 22 02 07 concerning operational programmes not entrusted to the European Agency for Reconstruction (EAR).

Remarks

Former Item 22 01 04 03

After enlargement, the Commission remains responsible for ensuring that all legal and financial requirements are met, in par-
ticular with regard to sound and efficient financial management. In line with the Act of Accession, all implementing agencies in
the 10 new Member States that joined the EU in 2004 now operate under the extended decentralised implementation system
(EDIS). In Bulgaria and Romania the extended decentralised implementation system will be introduced as soon as feasible. To
accompany this transition in Bulgaria and Romania, the current administrative and personnel structures of delegations will be
maintained for up to 15 months after accession.

However, a number of inalienable tasks relating to the completion of pre-accession programmes have been repatriated to head-
quarters from phased out delegations/representations in the ten new member states, to which the completion of the pre-
accession programmes for Romania and Bulgaria will add following a time frame matching that of the phasing-out of the EC
delegations in these countries. These tasks concern notably project follow-up in the context of both monitoring of outcomes
and financial management, including payment requests, as well as the follow-up to corrective actions taken upon recommen-
dations from EDIS audits and the implementation and follow-up to post-accession transitional financial aid. Modifications to
project fiches and/or financial allocations must also be duly assessed and an appropriate decision submitted to the Commission.

This appropriation is intended to cover the administrative costs of this remaining part of the phasing-out of the accession assis-
tance programmes in the new Member States, namely:

— expenditure on temporary support staff in delegations/representations (detached national experts, individual experts, local
staff and local technical assistance staff) for the purposes of the devolved programme management in the Commission’s
delegations/representations in non-member countries as well as the additional logistical, administrative and infrastructure
costs, such as costs of training, meetings, missions, IT and telecommunications and of renting directly caused by the pres-
ence in the delegation of the temporary staff remunerated from the appropriations of this item,

— expenditure on short-term technical assistance, linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme (or measures
coming under this article, plus any other expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public
authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service contracts),

— expenditure on temporary support staff (contract staff, detached national experts, staff from employment agencies) at head-
quarters working on tasks directly related to the completion of the accession programmes; expenditure on temporary sup-
port staff at headquarters is limited to EUR 1 600 000 and this estimate is based on a provisional annual unit cost per man-
year, of which 97 % is accounted for by remuneration for the staff concerned and 3 % by the additional cost of training,
meetings, missions, IT and telecommunications relating to those staff members.

New Article

Under the new Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA), this appropriation is intended to cover the component ‘transition
and institution building’ for candidate countries. The main objective is to develop an effective capacity to implement the acquis
communautaire, in particular by means of:

Former Article 22 05 04

The Community is to finance in part the operation of the United Nations Interim Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK), the Office of the
High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina (OHR) and the stability pact for south-eastern Europe. The financing is in the
form of a contribution to their budgets.

This appropriation is also intended to enable the use of external staff providing support to the special coordinator of the sta-
bility pact for south-eastern Europe, including the financing of the costs of the operation of his office as well as the special coor-
dinator’s contract with the Commission as special adviser under Articles 5 and 82 of the Conditions for employment of other
servants of the European Communities, in the Staff Regulations.

UNMIK and OHR will report twice a year to the European Parliament on the political situation in the regions concerned, in par-
ticular as regards its impact on the implementation of the European Union financial assistance.

Part of this appropriation is intended to be used, with due regard for the provisions of the Financial Regulation, for operations
carried out by senior volunteer experts from the European Union who come under the ESSN (European Senior Services Net-
work), including technical assistance, advisory services and training in selected public or private sector enterprises.

financed under the new financial instrument for the Turkish Cypriot community.

Remarks

Former Article 22 02 11

This appropriation is intended to cover financial support for encouraging the economic development of the Turkish Cypriot
Community. The assistance will focus particularly on the economic integration of the island and on improving contacts between
the two communities and with the European Union in order to facilitate the reunification of Cyprus. The assistance may be used
to support:

— the promotion of social and economic development, in particular concerning rural development, human resources devel-

opment and regional development,

— the development and restructuring of infrastructure, in particular in the areas of energy and transport, the environment,

telecommunications and water supply,

— reconciliation, confidence building measures, and support to civil society,

— bringing the Turkish Cypriot community closer to the Union, through, inter alia, information on the European Union’s

political and legal order, promotion of youth exchanges and scholarships,

— progressive alignment with, and preparation for, implementation of the acquis communautaire.

Part of this appropriation is also intended to cover the support administrative expenditure necessary to the implementation of
the programme such as:

— expenditure on technical and administrative assistance which the Commission may delegate to an implementing agency

governed by Community law,

— expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission

under ad hoc service contracts for the mutual benefit of the beneficiaries and the Commission,

— expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications directly linked to the achievement of the objec-

tive of the programme,

— expenditure on temporary support staff (contract staff, auxiliaries, detached national experts, staff from employment agen-
cies) at headquarters limited to EUR 3 000 000 corresponding to an estimated 28 man/years. This estimate is based on a
provisional annual unit cost per man/year, of which 75 % is accounted for by remuneration for the staff concerned
and 25 % by the additional cost of training, meetings, missions, IT, telecommunications and eventual rent of premises on
the ground.

Remarks

The purpose of the transition facility is to continue to assist the new Member States in their efforts to strengthen their admin-
istrative capacity to implement Community legislation and to foster the exchange of best practice.

The transition facility for the 10 new Member States who joined the EU on 1 May 2004 ran from 2004 to 2006. Implemen-
tation will continue until at least 2009. A new transition facility for Bulgaria and Romania has been foreseen in their Act of
Accession (2005) to last for one year following their accession to the EU.

The orientation of the transition facility is to continue institution-building activities according to the same principles as funded
by Phare during the pre-accession period. Therefore, the structures and methods established under Phare for programming and
decision-making will continue to apply for the transition facility with some small adaptations.

The purpose of the transition facility is to continue to provide assistance to new Member States in areas where their adminis-
trative and institutional capacity is still not able to deliver on a par with present Member States. The transition facility should
provide the tools to enable them to react rapidly and precisely to weaknesses identified, primarily where safeguard clauses have
been, or risk being, invoked.

The assistance shall address the continued need for strengthening institutional capacity in certain areas through actions which
cannot be financed by the Structural Funds, in particular in the following areas:

— justice and home affairs (strengthening of the judicial system, external border controls, anti-corruption strategy, strength-

ening of law enforcement capacities),

— financial control,

— protection of the Communities’ financial interests and the fight against fraud,

— the internal market, including customs union,

— the environment,

— veterinary services and administrative capacity-building related to food safety,

— administrative and control structures for agriculture and rural development, including the integrated administration

and control system (IACS),

— the strengthening of public administration according to needs identified in the Commission’s comprehensive monitoring

report which are not covered by the Structural Funds.

The issues to be addressed by the transition facility will primarily be identified in the comprehensive monitoring report. Priority
should be given to areas where safeguard clauses have been, or risk being, invoked to secure rapid remedial action.

Part of each allocation may be assigned to multi-beneficiary programmes, audit and evaluation actions being herein included.
The remainder is distributed between the new Member States.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of priority information and communication activities on enlargement mainly
regarding Member States, impact assessments and evaluation actions being herein included.

The amount of the proposed appropriations reflects the information and communication priorities under the enlargement time-
table. While 2004 was a transition year, with a focus on central communication policies, reflecting the transformation of Del-
egations to Representations in the 10 new Member States, since 2005 the aim of the policies is to promote support for acces-
sion, and to raise public awareness across Europe about the enlargement of the Union, but especially in those target countries
where the public opinion is more sensitive to the next steps of enlargement.

The credits allocated will finance information and communication actions on priority EU policies such as: an effective dialogue
on enlargement and pre-accession between the European citizens and the Union’s institutions, taking into account each coun-
try’s specificity and information needs; a dialogue between the civil society of the EU and that of candidate and pre-accession
countries; informing journalists on the enlargement process; studies and opinion polls; developing and updating dedicated web-
sites; preparing written and audiovisual material; organising conferences and seminars; evaluating the information programme.

The Interinstitutional Group on Information (IGI), co-chaired by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission,
lays down common guidelines for interinstitutional cooperation in matters of EU information and communication policy. It
coordinates the central and decentralised public information activities on European topics. Each year the IGI gives its opinion
on the priorities for the following years on the basis of information provided by the Commission.

Legal basis

Task resulting from the Commission’s prerogatives at institutional level, as provided for in Article 49(6) of Council Regulation
(EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European

This appropriation is intended to cover the funding of priority information and communication activities on enlargement mainly
regarding candidate and potential candidate countries, impact assessments and evaluation actions being herein included.

The main focus will be on the implementation of the re-orientated communication strategy on enlargement and pre-accession
through working programmes. The large part of this appropriation will be allocated to cover information and communication
activities in a deconcentrated manner to delegations in acceding, candidate and potential candidate countries.

Information and communication actions will be directed to the general public, relevant audiences, target groups, especially with
youth, media and the rural population, and to enhance support among opinion leaders for the enlargement as well as the asso-
ciation and stabilisation process. The aim is also to strengthen the EU visibility and political leverage in those countries and gen-
erate public support for the reforms process during the accession and pre-accession periods.

The credits allocated will build on the strategy from the previous year and lessons learnt and finance activities, such as: man-
agement of information centres, organisation of information events, seminars, training; networking, media relations; research;
studies and opinion polls, publications and internet websites.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of humanitarian assistance to help people in third countries — outside the
European Union — victims of conflicts or disasters, both natural and man-made (wars, outbreaks of fighting, etc.) or compa-
rable emergencies for as long as is necessary to meet the humanitarian needs that such situations give rise to.

The aid is granted to victims without discrimination on the grounds of race, ethnic origin, religion, disability, sex, age, nation-
ality or political affiliation.

Also charged to this article are the purchase and delivery of any product or equipment needed for the implementation of such
operations, including the building of homes or shelters for affected groups of people, short-term rehabilitation and reconstruc-
tion work, notably of infrastructure and facilities, the costs associated with external, expatriate or local staff, storage, interna-
tional or national shipment, logistic support and distribution of relief and any other action aimed at facilitating freedom of access
to the recipients of the aid.

This appropriation may also cover any other costs directly linked to the implementation of humanitarian aid operations.

It covers, inter alia:

— feasibility studies into humanitarian operations and the evaluation of humanitarian aid projects and plans,

— the monitoring of humanitarian aid projects and plans, promotion and development of initiatives intended to increase coor-

dination and cooperation so as to make aid more effective and improve the monitoring of projects and plans,

— the supervision and coordination of the implementation of aid operations forming part of the aid concerned,

TITLE 23 — HUMANITARIAN AID

CHAPTER 23 02 — HUMANITARIAN AID INCLUDING AID TO UPROOTED PEOPLE, FOOD AID AND DISASTER PREPAREDNESS
(cont’d)

23 02 02 (cont’d)

The Community’s humanitarian aid shall provide assistance and relief under a non-discriminatory basis to help people in third
countries — outside the European Union — particularly the most vulnerable among them, and as a priority those in developing
countries, victims of natural disasters, man-made crisis, such as wars and outbreaks of fighting, or exceptional circumstances
or circumstances comparable to natural or man-made disasters. It shall do so for as long as is necessary to meet the humani-
tarian needs that such situations give rise to.

This appropriation may be used to finance the purchase and delivery of food, seeds, life stocks or any product or equipment
needed for the implementation of the humanitarian food aid operations.

This appropriation is intended to cover the cost of the measures that are essential for implementing food aid of a humanitarian
nature wihin the requisite timescale and in a way which meets the needs of the recipients, satisfies the requirement to achieve
the greatest possible degree of cost-effectiveness and provides greater transparency. This includes:

— transport and distribution of aid, including any related operations such as insurance, loading, unloading, coordination, etc,

— back-up measures that are essential for the programming, coordination and optimum implementation of the aid, the cost
of which is not covered by other appropriations, e.g. exceptional transport and storage operations, processing or prepa-
ration of foodstuffs on the spot, disinfection, consultants’ services, technical assistance and equipment directly involved in
providing the aid (tools, utensils, fuel, etc.),

— supervision and coordination of food aid operations, notably the terms for the supply, delivery, distribution and use of the

products involved, including the use of counterpart funds,

— pilot schemes concerning new forms of transport, packaging or storage, studies of food aid operations and campaigns

to increase public awareness,

— storage of food (including administrative costs, future operations, with or without options, training of technicians, pur-

chase of packaging and mobile storage units, cost of maintaining and repairing stores, etc.),

— the technical assistance necessary for the preparation and implementation of humanitarian food aid projects, in particular
expenditure incurred covering the cost of contracts of individual experts in the field and the infrastructure and logistics
costs, covered by imprest accounts and expenditure authorisations, of DG Humanitarian Aid units deployed throughout
the world.

Remarks

Former Article 24 02 01, Item 24 02 04 01 and Item 24 02 04 02

This appropriation is intended to guarantee Member States and OLAF access to the strategic information required for investi-
gations; OLAF subscribes to key data sources on companies, international trade and vessels.

Similarly other on-line sources of information can be used for specific investigations or fraud prevention requirements, in par-
ticular in the areas of customs and agriculture.

This appropriation also covers:

— the organisation by OLAF of seminars or workshops,

— the organisation of the annual ‘cigarettes’ seminar,

— technical and scientific assistance for the development and provision of specific computer tools for intelligence work;

administrative arrangements are being concluded with the Joint Research Centre (JRC).

This appropriation is intended for the purchase of specific equipment to combat fraud and to provide technical assistance for
the purpose of combating fraud; it involves awarding grants to national departments or other public-sector bodies so that they
can organise these actions themselves. Technical assistance also means organising seminars for the staff of the national depart-
ments concerned.

It also covers training measures supported by OLAF which contribute to the fight against fraud affecting the financial interests
of the European Union by encouraging the pooling of experience and dissemination of general and operational knowhow in
the areas concerned. These measures will also be designed to make OLAF and its working methods better known and to improve
cooperation by enhancing understanding of Community and national mechanisms.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on
the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in
Item 6 0 3 1 or the statement of revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations in accordance with
Article 18 (1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Remarks

It is necessary to monitor new and assess old legislation. This pilot project should set up a multiannual project with the aim of
establishing a small organisation that is apolitical and independent and does not target the policy objectives of the proposed
legislation but focuses solely on the administrative burden brought about by a particular legislative proposal.

Furthermore this organisation should review how the Commission handles its responsibility to keep the administrative burden
as low as possible in the context of and with due regard for the aim of the planned legislation.

Moreover this organisation should focus on considering the degree to which in the explanation for the planned legislation the
consequences in terms of administrative burdens have been considered and whether the Commission has shown itself to have
sought the least burdensome option to realise the policy objectives of the proposed legislation.

Remarks

In accordance with Article 15 of the (new) Financial Regulation, the balance from each financial year is to be entered in the
budget for the following financial year as revenue in the case of a surplus or as a payment appropriation in the case of a deficit.

The estimates of such revenue or payment appropriations are entered in the budget during the budgetary procedure and in a
letter of amendment submitted pursuant to Article 34 of the Financial Regulation. They are drawn up in accordance with Coun-
cil Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 implementing the Decision on the system of the Communities’ own resources.

After the close of accounts for each financial year, any discrepancy with the estimates is entered in the budget for the following
financial year through an amending budget.

A surplus is entered in Article 3 0 0 of the statement of revenue.

AUDIT

Overall objectives

The aims of this policy area are to contribute to the efficient and effective performance of all Commission activities by providing independent,
effective and objective assurance and consultancy. This will include auditing the internal control systems that exist within the Commission in order
to assess their effectiveness and, more generally, the performance of Commission departments in implementing policies, programmes and actions
with a view to bringing about continuous improvement. It will also seek to help the Commission and its departments, by means of its opinions,
advice and recommendations with regard to the control of risks, the safeguarding of assets, compliance with rules, accurate and reliable account-
ing and management information, the quality of internal control and, finally, the efficiency and effectiveness of operations. These objectives build
on the tasks described in the Financial Regulation and, in line with the Financial Regulation, are carried out in conformity with the relevant inter-
national standards, i.e. the standards of the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA).

29 02 01 05 (cont’d)

This appropriation is also intended to cover costs incurred in connection with the training of national statisticians and the policy
of cooperation with the developing countries, the countries of central and eastern Europe and the southern Mediterranean coun-
tries; expenditure relating to exchanges of officials, the costs of information meetings, subsidies, expenditure in payment for ser-
vices rendered in connection with the adjustment of the remuneration of Community officials and other staff.

Also charged to this article is expenditure on the purchase of data and access for Commission departments to outside data-
banks. In addition, funding should be used to develop new, modular techniques.

It also intended to cover the provision of the necessary statistical information, at the request of the Commission or of the other
Community institutions, for the assessment, monitoring and evaluation of Community expenditure. This will improve the imple-
mentation of financial and budgetary policy (drawing-up of the budget and periodic review of the financial perspective) and
make it possible to compile medium and long-term data for Community financing.

To the appropriations entered in this article must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement
on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these
amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which con-
stitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of cor-
responding appropriations and to implementation under Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section,
which forms an integral part of the general budget.

The amount of assigned revenue pursuant to Article 18(1)(e) to (j) of the Financial Regulation is estimated at EUR 800 000.

Remarks

The aim of this reserve, in accordance with point 25 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary disci-
pline and sound financial management, is to allow a rapid response to the specific aid requirements of third countries following
events which could not be foreseen when the budget was established, first and foremost for humanitarian operations, but also
for civil crisis management and protection where circumstances so require. The annual amount of the Reserve is fixed at EUR
221 million for the duration of the financial framework, in constant prices.

The Reserve is entered in the general budget of the European Union as a provision. The corresponding commitment appropria-
tions will be entered in the budget, if necessary, over and above the ceilings.

When the Commission considers that the Reserve needs to be called on, it will present to the two arms of the budgetary author-
ity a proposal for a transfer from the Reserve to the relevant budget lines.

At the same time as it presents its proposal for a transfer, the Commission will initiate a trialogue procedure, if necessary in a
simplified form, to secure agreement of the two arms of the budgetary authority on the need to use the Reserve and on the
amount required.

The methods for entering the appropriations in this reserve and for mobilising the Fund are laid down in Point 28 of the Inter-
institutional Agreement and in Article 12 of the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing the Euro-
pean Globalisation Adjustment Fund.

This appropriation is intended to cover the cost of information and communication measures undertaken by the Office.

The Office’s external information and communication strategy is central to its work. The Office was set up as an independent
investigative body and must therefore have its own communications strategy. The Office’s work is often too technical to be
immediately comprehensible to the general public. The Office has to inform its interlocutors and the public as a whole of its
role and tasks. Public perception of the Office’s work is of paramount importance.

As a Commission service, the Office also needs to take account of the democratic deficit existing between Community institu-
tions and the citizens of Europe. The Commission has recognised this deficit and drawn up an action plan to address it.

The communications strategy that the Office has developed and continues to implement must demonstrate its independence.

COMMISSION
EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA

Under the agreement establishing the European Economic Area the EFTA countries (with the exception of Switzerland) take part in a wide range
of Community policies covered by headings 1a, 3a, 3b, 4 and 5 of the financial framework in exchange for a financial contribution to operating
appropriations calculated by applying a ‘proportionality factor’. This proportionality factor is equal to the sum of the ratios obtained by dividing
the gross domestic product at market prices of each EFTA country by the gross domestic product at market prices of all the EC Member States
plus that of the EFTA country concerned.

For 2007 the proportionality factor is estimated at 2,28 % (on the basis of 2005 figures).

These financial contributions will not be formally entered into the budget; each budget heading relating to activities in which the EFTA countries
take part will refer to the EFTA contribution as a memorandum item. A summary table, listing the budget headings concerned and the amounts
of the EFTA contribution for each budget heading, is published as an Annex to the Community budget. The total EFTA contribution for the opera-
tional part for 2007 is estimated at about EUR 9 million in commitment appropriations. The EFTA countries will also share in the administrative
expenditure directly linked to the implementation of these policies. The figures and budget headings concerning the contributions by the EFTA
countries are still to be discussed with them and must therefore be regarded as provisional.

BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE GENERAL
BUDGET

A. INTRODUCTION

This Annex is drawn up in accordance with Article 30(1) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial
Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1), as amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom)
No 1995/2006 (OJ L 390, 30.12.2006, p. 1).

It provides information about the amounts of the borrowing-and-lending operations guaranteed by the general budget: loans for balance-of-
payments support, and borrowing operations to provide macro-financial assistance to non-member countries, European Investment Bank loans
to Mediterranean basin countries, in the countries of central and eastern Europe and the western Balkans, for projects in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus,
Moldova, European Investment Bank loans for projects of mutual interest in certain non-member countries (Asia and Latin America), European
Investment Bank loans to South Africa and Euratom borrowings to contribute to the financing required for improving the degree of efficiency
and safety of nuclear power stations in certain non-member countries.

At 31 December 2005, outstanding operations covered by the general budget totalled EUR 16,520 billion; of that total EUR 2,966 billion was
inside the European Union and EUR 13,554 billion outside (rounded figures).

BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE GENERAL
BUDGET

B. BRIEF PRESENTATION OF THE VARIOUS CATEGORIES OF BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS
GUARANTEED BY THE GENERAL BUDGET

I. SINGLE FACILITY PROVIDING MEDIUM-TERM FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR MEMBER STATES’ BALANCES OF PAYMENTS

1. Legal basis

Council Regulation (EC) No 332/2002 of 18 February 2002 establishing a facility providing medium-term financial assistance for Member
States’ balances of payments (OJ L 53, 23.2.2002, p. 1).

2. Description

In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 332/2002, the European Union may grant loans to Member States which are experiencing, or are seri-
ously threatened with, difficulties in their balance of current payments or capital movements. Only Member States which have not adopted the
euro may benefit from this Community facility. The outstanding amount of loans is limited to EUR 12 billion in principal.

3. Effect on the budget

Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the budget only if the guarantee is
activated in case of default. As of 31 December 2005, the outstanding amount under this instrument was zero.

II. EURATOM BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS

III. BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS PURSUANT TO THE NEW COMMUNITY INSTRUMENT FOR THE

PROMOTION OF INVESTMENT IN THE COMMUNITY (NCI)

1. Legal basis

Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 235 thereof.

2. Description

Please refer to Point 1.2.3.3.

3. Effect on the budget

The last borrowing/loan under this instrument was fully reimbursed in December 2004. No further disbursement will be carried out under this
instrument.

IV. EUROPEAN COMMUNITY GUARANTEE FOR BORROWING PROGRAMMES CONTRACTED BY THE COMMUNITY TO

PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR MEDITERRANEAN NON-MEMBER COUNTRIES

1. Legal basis

Council Decision 94/938/EC of 22 December 1994 providing further macro-financial assistance for Algeria (OJ L 366, 31.12.1994, p. 28).

2. Description

An operation for Algeria involving EUR 200 000 000, in two tranches, over a period of no more than seven years, was proposed by the Com-
mission and decided by the Council on 22 December 1994. The first tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was fully reimbursed on 3 November 2000.
In view of the clear improvement in Algeria’s external position payment of the second tranche is no longer to be made.

3. Effect on the budget

There is no more effect on the budget as there is no outstanding with these countries.

V. EUROPEAN COMMUNITY GUARANTEE FOR BORROWING PROGRAMMES CONTRACTED BY THE COMMUNITY TO

PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR NON-MEMBER COUNTRIES IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE

1. Legal basis

Council Decision 97/472/EC of 22 July 1997 providing macro-financial assistance for Bulgaria (OJ L 200, 29.7.1997, p. 61).

Council Decision 1999/731/EC of 8 November 1999 providing supplementary macro-financial assistance to Bulgaria (OJ L 294, 16.11.1999,
p. 27).

Council Decision 1999/732/EC of 8 November 1999 providing supplementary macro-financial assistance to Romania (OJ L 294, 16.11.1999,
p. 29).

2. Description

On 22 July 1997 the Council decided to grant Bulgaria long-term, macro-financial assistance of a maximum of EUR 250 000 000, to be paid
in two tranches. The first tranche of EUR 125 000 000 was paid to Bulgaria on 10 February 1998. The second tranche of EUR 125 000 000
was paid on 22 December 1998.

On 8 November 1999 the Council decided to grant Bulgaria additional macro-financial assistance of a maximum of EUR 100 000 000. The
loan was paid in two tranches. The first tranche of EUR 40 000 000 was paid to Bulgaria on 21 December 1999. The second tranche of
EUR 60 000 000 was paid on 29 September 2000.

On 8 November 1999 the Council decided to grant Romania macro-financial assistance in the form of a long-term loan of a principal of up to
EUR 200 000 000 for a maximum period of 10 years. The first tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was paid on 29 June 2000. A second tranche of
EUR 50 000 000 was paid on 17 July 2003.

3. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external
actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1), as last amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28), any defaults
are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— payment to the Fund of 9 % of the capital value of the lending and guarantee operations decided and committed after 1 January 2000,

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

From 1 January 2007, loans with Bulgaria and Romania cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004) and are
therefore covered directly by the general budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

Council Decision 2000/244/EC of 20 March 2000 amending Decision 97/787/EC providing exceptional financial assistance for Armenia and
Georgia in order to extend it to Tajikistan (OJ L 77, 28.3.2000, p. 11).

2. Description

The Council decided on 25 March 1996 to guarantee a borrowing-and-lending operation for Moldova for a maximum amount of
EUR 15 000 000.

The loan was paid in one tranche in December 1996 and fully reimbursed on 30 October 2006.

On 23 October 1995 the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a second borrowing-and-lending operation for Ukraine.

The loan is for a maximum amount of EUR 200 000 000 in principal with a maximum duration of 10 years, and will be disbursed in two
tranches.

Half of the first tranche, i.e. EUR 50 000 000 of the EUR 100 000 000 planned, was paid in August 1996 and fully reimbursed on 29 August
2006. The second half was paid in December 1996 and fully reimbursed on 30 October 2006. The second tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was
paid on 25 September 1997.

On 10 April 1995 the Council decided to give the European Union’s guarantee for a borrowing-and-lending operation for Belarus.

The decision is for a maximum amount of EUR 55 000 000 in principal with a maximum duration of 10 years. A first tranche of
EUR 30 000 000 was disbursed in 1995. The second tranche is no longer to be made.

On 17 November 1997 the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for an exceptional borrowing-and-lending operation for
Georgia and Armenia (a loan to Georgia for a maximum amount of EUR 142 000 000 in principal and a loan to Armenia for EUR 28 000 000),
with a maximum duration of 15 years.

The first tranche of EUR 110 000 000 was paid to Georgia on 24 July 1998. The second tranche is no longer to be made.

The loan of EUR 28 000 000 to Armenia was paid on 30 December 1998 and completely reimbursed by December 2005.

On 15 October 1998 the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a third borrowing-and-lending operation for Ukraine. The
loan was initially for a maximum amount of EUR 150 000 000 in principal with a maximum duration of 10 years. The first tranche of
EUR 58 000 000 was paid on 30 July 1999. Disbursement of the balance under the new decision of EUR 110 000 000 is no more planned.

On 20 March 2000 the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a borrowing-and-lending operation for Tajikistan. The loan
is for a maximum amount of EUR 75 000 000 principal with a maximum duration of 15 years. A loan of EUR 60 000 000 was paid in 2001.
The second tranche is no longer to be made.

3. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external
actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1) as last amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28), any defaults
are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— payment to the Fund of 9 % of the capital value of the lending and guarantee operations decided and committed after 1 January 2000,

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

2. Description

On 22 July 1997 the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a borrowing-and-lending operation for the former Yugoslav
Republic of Macedonia.

The loan is for a maximum amount of EUR 40 000 000 in principal for a duration of 15 years.

The first tranche of EUR 25 000 000, for a maximum duration of 15 years, was paid to the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia on 30 Sep-
tember 1997. It will be repaid in five equal annual instalments from the 11th year.

The second tranche of EUR 15 000 000 was paid on 13 February 1998. It will be repaid in five equal annual payments from the 11th year.

On 10 May 1999 the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a borrowing-and-lending operation for Bosnia and Herze-
govina in the form of a long-term loan for a maximum amount of EUR 20 000 000 in principal for a maximum duration of 15 years.

The first tranche of EUR 10 000 000, for a maximum duration of 15 years, was paid to Bosnia and Herzegovina on 21 December 1999. The
second tranche of EUR 10 000 000 was paid in 2001.

On 8 November 1999 the Council again decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a borrowing-and-lending operation for the former
Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia in the form of a long-term loan for a maximum amount of EUR 50 000 000 in principal for a maximum
duration of 15 years.

The first tranche of EUR 10 000 000, for a maximum duration of 15 years, was paid to the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia in January
2001, the second of EUR 12 000 000 in January 2002, the third of EUR 10 000 000 in June 2003 and the fourth of EUR 18 000 000 in

Yugoslavia (now Serbia and Montenegro) in the form of a long-term loan for a maximum amount of EUR 225 000 000 in principal for a maxi-
mum duration of 15 years. The loan was paid in a single tranche in October 2001.

On 5 November 2002, the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a borrowing-and-lending operation for Bosnia and Herze-
govina in the form of a long-term loan for a maximum amount of EUR 20 000 000 in principal for a maximum duration of 15 years.

The first tranche of EUR 10 000 000, for a maximum duration of 15 years, was paid to Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2004, and the second
tranche in 2006.

On 5 November 2002, the Council decided to grant a European Union guarantee for a borrowing-and-lending operation for Serbia and Mon-
tenegro in the form of a long-term loan for a maximum amount of EUR 55 000 000 in principal for a maximum duration of 15 years.

The first tranche of EUR 10 000 000 and the second tranche of EUR 30 000 000, for a maximum duration of 15 years, were paid to Serbia
and Montenegro in 2003, the third of EUR 15 000 000 in 2005.

The loan to Albania of EUR 9 000 000, for a maximum duration of 15 years, was fully disbursed in 2006.

3. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external
actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1) as last amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28), any defaults
are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— payment to the Fund of 9 % of the capital value of the lending and guarantee operations decided and committed after 1 January 2000,

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

VIII. EUROPEAN COMMUNITY GUARANTEE FOR EURATOM BORROWINGS TO IMPROVE THE DEGREE OF EFFICIENCY AND
SAFETY OF NUCLEAR POWER STATIONS IN THE COUNTRIES OF CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AND THE
COMMONWEALTH OF INDEPENDENT STATES

1. Legal basis

Council Decision 94/179/Euratom of 21 March 1994 amending Decision 77/270/Euratom to authorise the Commission to contract Euratom
borrowings in order to contribute to the financing required for improving the degree of efficiency and safety of nuclear power stations in cer-
tain non-member countries (OJ L 84, 29.3.1994, p. 41).

2. Description

Pursuant to Decision 94/179/Euratom, the European Union extends the scope of Euratom borrowings to the improvement of the degree of
efficiency and safety of nuclear power stations in the countries of central and eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States.

The maximum amount of Euratom borrowings for the Member States and non-member countries remains fixed at EUR 4 000 000 000.

3. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external
actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1) as last amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28), any defaults
are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— payment to the Fund of 9 % of the capital value of the lending and guarantee operations decided and committed after 1 January 2000,

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

From 1 January 2007, loans with Bulgaria and Romania cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004) and are
therefore covered directly by the general budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

30 October 1978 in Brussels and 10 November 1978 in Luxembourg introducing a global guarantee of 75 % of all appropriations made avail-

2. Description

Under the Financial Protocols concluded with Mediterranean Basin non-member countries, global amounts are laid down for loans to be granted
by the European Investment Bank from its own funds. The European Investment Bank grants the loans for purposes which may contribute to
the economic and social development of the countries in question (transport infrastructures, ports, water supply, production and distribution
of energy, agricultural projects and promotion of small and medium-sized businesses).

Acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting Parliament, the Council decided on 14 April 1997 to renew the Community
guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in the following Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jor-
dan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, Gaza and the West Bank. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of
the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to
EUR 7 105 000 000, of which EUR 2 310 000 000 is for the abovementioned Mediterranean countries. It covered a period of three years
beginning on 31 January 1997 (with a possible six-month extension).

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

The Council decided on 29 November 1999 to grant a Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank against losses under loans for
projects for the reconstruction of the earthquake-stricken areas of Turkey. The guarantee is restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the
appropriations made available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 600 000 000
and covered a period of three years beginning on 29 November 1999 (with a possible six-month extension).

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This per-
centage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

On 22 December 1999, on the basis of a Commission proposal and after consulting Parliament, the Council decided once again to give the
European Investment Bank the Community guarantee against losses resulting from loans for projects carried out in the following Mediterra-
nean countries: Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, Gaza and the West Bank. The guarantee
is limited to 65 % of the total value of the appropriations made available plus all the related amounts. It covers a period of seven years from
1 February 2000 to 31 January 2007. If at the end of that period the loans granted by the European Investment Bank have not reached the
abovementioned total values, the period is automatically extended by six months.

On 4 December 2000 the Council decided to establish a European Investment Bank special action programme in support of the consolidation
and intensification of the EC-Turkey Customs Union. The value of those loans is limited to an overall ceiling of EUR 450 000 000.

That Decision was at the origin of the extension of the contract for the provision of security signed by the European Community and the Euro-
pean Investment Bank on 19 July 2000 in Brussels and 24 July 2000 in Luxembourg, under which the guarantee is limited to 65 % of the total
value of the appropriations made available plus all the related sums. The overall ceiling on the appropriations made available is equivalent to
EUR 19 460 000 000 and covers a period of seven years from 1 February 2000 to 31 January 2007. If at the end of that period the loans
granted by the European Investment Bank have not reached the abovementioned total values the period is extended by six months.

The 2005 Decision restructured the Mediterranean regional mandate to exclude Cyprus, Malta and Turkey which were included in the South
Eastern Neighbours mandate.

3. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external
actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1) as last amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28), any defaults
are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— payment to the Fund of 9 % of the capital value of the lending and guarantee operations decided and committed after 1 January 2000,

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default,

— the granting, in a series of cases, of interest-rate subsidies of 2 % in non-repayable aid, subject to the overall amounts laid down by the

Financial Protocols.

Loans with new Member States cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004) and are therefore covered directly
by the general budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

2. Description

In response to a call made by the Council on 9 October 1989, the Board of Governors of the European Investment Bank decided on 29 Novem-
ber 1989 to authorise the Bank to provide loans from its own resources to finance investment projects in Hungary and Poland for a total
amount not exceeding EUR 1 000 000 000. These loans are granted to finance investment projects which satisfy the Bank’s usual require-
ments for loans from its own resources.

On 14 May 1991 and 15 March 1993 the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting Parliament, decided that
this guarantee should be extended to any loans that the European Investment Bank might make in the other countries of central and eastern
Europe (Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and Romania) over a period of two years up to a maximum of EUR 700 000 000.

On 13 December 1993 the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting Parliament, decided to renew for three
years the European Union guarantee for EUR 3 000 000 000 in European Investment Bank loans for projects in Poland, Hungary, the Czech
Republic, the Slovak Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Albania.

The budget guarantee covers all aspects of debt-servicing (repayment of capital, interest, related costs) in connection with these loans.

Acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting Parliament, the Council decided on 14 April 1997 to renew the Community
guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in Albania, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania,
Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia. The guarantee is restricted to 70 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made
available, plus all related sums. The overall ceiling of the appropriations made available is equivalent to EUR 7 105 000 000, of which

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 25 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees.

Acting on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting Parliament, the Council decided on 22 December 1999 to renew the Com-
munity guarantee to the European Investment Bank for loans for projects in Albania, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Bosnia and
Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia. The guarantee is
restricted to 65 % of the aggregate amount of the appropriations made available, plus all related sums. It covers a period of seven years begin-
ning on 1 February 2000 and ending on 31 January 2007. If, on expiry of this period, the loans granted by the European Investment Bank
have not attained the overall amounts referred to above, the period will be automatically extended by six months.

The European Investment Bank is invited to aim to cover the commercial risk on 30 % of its lending from non-sovereign guarantees. This per-
centage is to be increased whenever possible, in so far as the market allows.

On 7 November 2000 the Council decided to extend the guarantee granted by the Community to the European Investment Bank to loans for
projects in Croatia.

On 6 November 2000 the Council decided to extend the guarantee granted by the Community to the European Investment Bank to loans for
projects in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (now Serbia and Montenegro).

The 2005 Decision restructured the Mediterranean regional mandate to exclude Cyprus, Malta and Turkey which were included in the South
Eastern Neighbours mandate.

3. Effect on the budget

Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external
actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1) as last amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004 (OJ L 396, 31.12.2004, p. 28), any defaults
are covered by this Fund within the limit of the amount available.

The effect on the budget is thus limited to:

— payment to the Fund of 9 % of the capital value of the lending and guarantee operations decided and committed after 1 January 2000,

— activation of the budget guarantee should the debtor default.

Loans with new Member States cease to be external actions (see Regulation No 2273/2004) and are therefore covered directly by the general
budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

Macro-financial assistance for the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia — FYROM II and III

A new macro-financial assistance operation consisting of loans not exceeding EUR 50 000 000 and donations not exceeding EUR 30 000 000
was decided by the Council in 1999. The loan was fully disbursed in four instalments.

Macro-financial assistance for Bosnia and Herzegovina — Bosnia I and II

The first macro-financial assistance operation consisting of loans not exceeding EUR 20 000 000 and donations not exceeding EUR 40 000 000
was decided by the Council in 1999. The first loan tranche of EUR 10 000 000 was disbursed in 1999 and the second loan tranche of

in 2000, the second tranche of EUR 50 000 000 was paid in 2003. Disbursement of a further instalment is no longer planned.

Macro-financial assistance for Ukraine — Ukraine III

On 15 October 1998 the Council decided to grant Ukraine a medium-term facility of up to EUR 150 000 000 to support the country’s eco-
nomic programme for 1999/2000. The first tranche of EUR 58 000 000 was disbursed in 1999. Disbursement of the balance is no longer
planned under this operation, but in 2002 the Council decided on a new financial assistance operation totalling EUR 110 000 000. Disburse-
ment of a further instalment is no longer planned.

Macro-financial assistance for Serbia and Montenegro — I, II and IIbis

An initial macro-financial assistance operation totalling EUR 225 000 000 in the form of loans was adopted in July 2001 and completely dis-
bursed in September 2001.

In 2002 the Council decided on a second operation in the form of loans totalling EUR 55 000 000. This loan was fully disbursed in three instal-
ments, with the last one being paid in 2005.

In 2003 the Council decided on another loan of EUR 25 000 000 but there are no plans at present for disbursing it.

Euratom loans to non-member countries

On 21 March 1994 the Council decided to empower the Commission to contract borrowings and grant Euratom loans to help improve the
degree of efficiency and safety of nuclear power stations in certain countries of central and eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Inde-
pendent States. In 2000, the Commission decided on a loan to Kozloduy in Bulgaria (EUR 212 500 000) and the last instalment occurred in
2006. In 2000, the Commission granted a loan to K2R4 in Ukraine but reduced the loan amount to the EUR equivalent of USD 83 000 000
in 2004. No amount has yet been disbursed under this decision. In 2004, the Commission decided on a loan to Cernavodă in Romania
(EUR 223 500 000). A first instalment of EUR 100 000 000 and a second one of EUR 90 000 000 were disbursed in 2005 as well as the last
one of EUR 33 500 000 in 2006.

From 1 January 2007, loans with Bulgaria and Romania cease to be external actions (see Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2273/2004) and are
therefore covered directly by the general budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE GENERAL
BUDGET

Technical notes on Table 1

(a) For balance of payments, ‘NCI’ and ‘Euratom’ operations the amounts borrowed should correspond to the amounts lent.

However, the funds borrowed may be exchanged under swap operations for other currencies (at different interest rates) and these currencies
are then lent.

Divergent movements in the parities against the euro of the currencies borrowed and lent are the reasons for the differences between the
columns ‘Repayments’ and ‘Amount outstanding’ for borrowing-and-lending operations.

The differences in interest rates for the currencies used in borrowing-and-lending operations are the reasons for differences in the column
‘Interest’ for these two types of operations.

(b) Exchange rate: the amounts in column 2 ‘Equivalent at date of signature’ are converted at the rate applicable on the date of signature. As
regards refinancing operations, Table 1 shows both the initial operation (e.g. in 1979) and the replacement operation (e.g. in 1986), the
amount for the latter being converted at the rate of the initial operation. The resulting duplication affects the annual figures but is eliminated
in the total.

All other amounts are converted at the rate applicable at 31 December 2006.

(c) Column 3 ‘Initial amount received/paid up to 31 December 2006’: with reference to 1986, for example, this column shows the cumula-
tive total of all amounts received up to 31 December 2006 under loans signed in 1986 (table 1), including refinancing (which produces some
duplication).

(d) Column 4 ‘Amount outstanding at 31 December 2006’: these are net figures, with no duplication as a result of refinancing operations.
They are obtained by subtracting from the column 3 figure the cumulative total of repayments made up to 31 December 2006, including
repayments in respect of refinancing operations (total not given in the tables).

(e) Column 7 = column 4 – column 5.
