1. 

THE 2013 EAGF BUDGETARY PROCEDURE 

The  2013  budgetary  procedure  for  the  European  Agricultural  Guarantee  Fund 
(EAGF) and  the  corresponding  amounts of appropriations involved at  each  stage of 
the procedure are summarised in the table presented in Annex 1. 

The  2013  EAGF  budget  was  adopted  by  the  European  Parliament  on  12  December 
2012. The budget included commitment and payment appropriations amounting to: 

– 

– 

– 

EUR 43 654.7 million  and  to  EUR 43 660 million  respectively  for  agricultural 
market measures and direct aids (policy area 05). 

EUR  274.7 million  and  to  EUR 247.3 million  respectively  for  veterinary  and 
plant-health measures (policy area 17). 

EUR 27.2 million  and  to  EUR 26.9 million  respectively  for  fisheries  (policy 
area 11).  

its 

and 

total  commitment  appropriations 

to 
The  budget’s 
EUR 43 956.5 million 
to 
payment 
EUR 43 934.2 million.  The  difference  between  commitment  and  payment 
appropriations  is  due  to  the  fact,  that  for  certain  measures,  which  are  directly 
implemented  by  the  Commission,  differentiated  appropriations  are  used.  These 
schemes  relate  mainly  to  the  promotion  of  agricultural  products,  to  policy  strategy 
and coordination measures for agriculture as well as to fisheries and to veterinary and 
plant-health measures.

REVENUE ASSIGNED TO EAGF 

On the basis of the rules of Article 34 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 on 
the financing of the Common Agricultural Policy revenue originating from financial 
corrections  under  conformity  clearance  decisions,  from  irregularities  and  from  the 
milk levy are designated as revenue assigned to the financing of EAGF expenditure. 
According to these rules, assigned revenue can be used to cover the financing of any 
EAGF expenditure. In the event part of this revenue is not used, then, this part will be 
automatically carried forward to the following budget year.1 

The 2013 EAGF budget included both: the Commissions' latest estimates of the needs 
to  finance  the  expected  expenditure  for  market  measures  and  direct  aids,  and  the 
estimates of the assigned revenue, which was expected to be collected in the course 
of  the  budget  year  concerned  and  the  carryover  of  the  balance  of  assigned  revenue 
left available from the previous budget year. In its proposal for the amount of EAGF 
appropriations for the 2013 budget, the Commission took into consideration the total 
expected  assigned  revenue  and  requested  for  the  DB  2013  a  level  of  appropriations 
calculated  by  deducting  the  estimated  assigned  revenue  from  the  estimated  needs.  
The  Budgetary  Authority  adopted  the  new  EAGF  budget  taking  account  of  the 
expected assigned revenue.  

Art 14 of Regulation (EU, EURATOM) No 966/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council on 

1 
the financial rules applicable to the general budget of the Union determines that internal assigned revenue shall 
be carried over for one year only. Thus, in the interest of sound budgetary management, this assigned revenue is 
in general used first before any voted appropriation of the budget article concerned.  

 
 
                                                            
At the time of establishing the budget for 2013, the Commission’s estimates for the 
available assigned revenue amounted to EUR 1 533 million. Specifically:  

– 

– 

The assigned revenue expected to be generated in the course of the 2013 budget 
year  was  estimated  at  EUR 628 million.  Amounts  of  EUR 389 million  and 
EUR 161 million  were  expected  from  conformity  clearance  corrections  and 
from irregularities respectively. The receipts from the milk levy were estimated 
at EUR 78 million. 

The  amount  of  assigned  revenue  expected  to  be  carried  over  from  the  budget 
year  2012  into  2013  was  estimated  at  EUR 905 million  (including  the 
remaining  balance  of  the  Sugar  Restructuring  Fund  estimated  at  EUR  675 
million). 

In  the  2013  budget,  the  Commission  assigned  this  initially  estimated  revenue  of 
EUR 1 533 million to two schemes. Specifically:  

– 

– 

EUR 500 million  was  assigned 
organisations in the fruits and vegetables sector, and 

to 

the  operational  funds  for  producer 

EUR 1 033 million to the single payment scheme.  

to  EUR 267 million  and 

For  these  two  schemes,  the  Budgetary  Authority  eventually  voted  appropriations 
amounting 
in 
accordance with the Commission’s proposal. The sum of the voted appropriations and 
the  assigned  revenue  mentioned  above  corresponds  to  a  total  estimate  of  available 
appropriations  of  EUR 767 million  for 
the  operational  funds  for  producer 
organisations  in  the  fruits  and  vegetables  sector  and  EUR 31 668 million  for  the 
single payment scheme. 

to  EUR  30 635 million  respectively, 

In annex 2, which presents the 2013 budget’s provisional execution for the period to 
28 February 2013, the figures of the budget appropriations at article level for the fruit 
and vegetables sector and for the decoupled direct aids present voted appropriations 
for  these  two  schemes  amounting  to  EUR 611 million  and  to  EUR 38 076 million 
respectively,  without  taking  account  of  the  aforementioned  assigned  revenue. 
Including  the  revenue  assigned  to  these  sectors,  the  total  appropriations  foreseen  in 
the  2013  budget  amounted  to  EUR 1  111 million  for  fruits  and  vegetables  and  to 
EUR 39 109 million for decoupled direct aids.

COMMENTS ON THE PROVISIONAL IMPLEMENTATION OF THE 2013 EAGF BUDGET 

The  budget’s  provisional  implementation  level  for  the  period  16 October 2012  to 
28 February 2013 is presented in Annex 2. This implementation level is compared to 
the expenditure profile based on the indicator, which was established on the basis of 
the  dispositions  of  Article  20  of  Council  Regulation  (EC)  No 1290/2005.  Below  a 
brief  commentary  is  presented  for  certain  budget  articles,  showing  the  most 
significant differences between the actual and the expected level of implementation of 
the 2013 budget. 

3.1.  Market measures 

The  uptake  of  appropriations  for  interventions  in  agricultural  markets  was  higher 
compared to the level of the budget's voted appropriations, as determined by the level 
of  the  indicator  on  28  February  2013,  by  EUR 161.1 million.  This  divergence  is 
primarily attributed to the fruits and vegetables sector.  

 
 
3.1.1.  Fruit and vegetables (+ EUR 158.9 million in comparison with voted appropriations) 

As  regards  voted  appropriations,  this  implementation  level  is  primarily  due  to  the 
expenditure  for  the  operational  funds  for  producer  organisations  scheme,  which  is 
funded both by the budget’s voted appropriations and by the revenue assigned to this 
scheme  in  the  2013  budget  (NB:  For  details  please  see  point  2  above).  This 
implementation  level  is  the  result  of  applying  the  indicator  for  the  period  to  28 
February 2013 to the budget’s voted appropriations, which do not include the revenue 
assigned  to  this  sector.  Furthermore,  for  the  period  under  examination,  Member 
States  made  payments  at  a  rhythm  which  was  faster  than  the  level  of  the  indicator 
established for the aid to producer groups for preliminary recognition scheme.  

At this point in time, the Commission considers that the total appropriations available 
for this sector will be sufficient to cover the expenditure expected to be incurred by 
Member States in 2013. 

A footnote * in the provisional execution table in annex 2 shows what the situation 
would  be,  had  the  indicator,  as  of  28  February  2013,  been  applied  to  the  total 
appropriations, which are expected to be available in order to fund this sector. As it is 
pointed out in point 2 above, the total funding expected to be available for this sector 
is  composed  of  the  budget’s  voted  appropriations  of  EUR  611  million  and  of  the 
revenue assigned to this sector which is estimated at EUR 500 million. Therefore, had 
the indicator been applied to the total funding of EUR 1 111 million expected to be 
available for this sector, then, an over-execution of EUR 37.2 million would appear, 
which can be explained by a higher uptake of appropriations available for the aid to 
producer groups for preliminary recognition, as a result of a slower execution towards 
the end of 2012 budget year. At this point in time, this situation is considered to be 
temporary.  

3.2. 

Direct aids  

The uptake of appropriations for direct aids compared to the level of the indicator on 
28 February 2012 was higher by EUR 1 562.3 million.  

3.2.1.  Decoupled  direct  aids  (+EUR  1 541.9  million 

in  comparison  with  voted 

appropriations) 

As regards voted appropriations, the single payment scheme (SPS) presents an over-
execution  which  results  from  applying  the  indicator  for  the  period  to  28  February 
2013 to the budget's voted appropriations which do not include the revenue assigned 
to  this  sector.  The  implementation  of  the  SPS  on  28  February  2013  runs  at  a  faster 
rhythm:  95%  compared  to  94.3%  in  2012.  On  the  other  hand,  the  uptake  of  the 
available  appropriations  for  the  single  area  payment  scheme  (SAPS)  and  the  other 
schemes  in  this  sector  has  been  slower  than  expected  by  the  level  of  the  indicator. 
Indeed,  for  all  decoupled  direct  aids  Member  States  have  already  paid  till  now 
approximately 78% of the estimated needs in the budget as compared to 89% at the 
same time for the 2011 claims paid in 2012.  

A footnote * in the provisional execution table in annex 2 shows which would be the 
situation  had  the  indicator,  as  at  28  February  2013,  been  applied  to  the  total 
appropriations  which  are  expected  to  be  available  in  order  to  fund  decoupled  direct 
aids. As it is pointed out in point 2 above, the total funding expected to be available 
for  decoupled  direct  aids  is  composed  of  the  budget’s  voted  appropriations  of  EUR 
38 076  million  and  of  the  revenue  assigned  to  decoupled  direct  aids  which  is 
estimated to amount to EUR 1 033 million. Therefore, had the indicator been applied 

 
 
to  the  total  funding  of  EUR  39 109  million  expected  to  be  available  for  decoupled 
direct  aids,  then,  the  observed over-execution  would  amount  to  EUR  599.1  million. 
This  divergence  results  from  the  fact  that  the  indicator  for  SPS  is  based  on  the 
average  rhythm  of  payment  of  the  years  2010-2012,  and  amounts  to  93.5%,  as 
compared  to  actual  execution  till  28  February  2013  of  95%.  The  Commission  will 
continue  following  closely  this  budget  article  in  order  to  ensure  that  available 
appropriations  and  assigned  revenue  are  sufficient  to  cover  the  actual  budgetary 
execution.  

3.3. 

Audit of agricultural expenditure 

3.3.1.  Accounting clearance of previous years’ accounts (+EUR 54.0 million) 

Until 28 February 2013, Member States have not declared any clearance of accounts 
corrections as no accounting clearance decision has been taken by the Commission. 
The current implementation level results from the level of the corresponding indicator 
as of 28 February 2013.  

It should be pointed out that the Commission, in its Amending Letter for 2013, had 
proposed corrections amounting to – EUR 56 million, based on the average execution 
of  previous  years  as  such  corrections  are  not  predictable.  In  the  new  Draft  Budget 
drawn up in November, following the failure in the first conciliation, this amount was 
increased to – EUR 100 million. In the end, following the conciliation of 5 December 
2012,  the  Budgetary  Authority  adopted  the  2013  budget  in  which  this  amount  was 
finally set at – EUR 200 million. 

At this point in time the Commission considers that the expected corrections from its 
accounting clearance decisions and from the non-respect of aid payments' deadlines 
by the Member States would not be sufficient to cover in full the higher amount of – 
EUR  200  million.  The  Commission  would  need  to  eventually  cover  the  resulting 
shortfall  of  negative  budget  appropriations  by 
transferring  positive  budget 
appropriations from other items in order to close this budget item in 2013.  

4. 

IMPLEMENTATION OF REVENUE ASSIGNED TO EAGF 

The table in Annex 2 shows that assigned revenue amounting to EUR 245.4 million 
was collected as of 28 February 2013. Specifically: 

– 

– 

– 

the  revenue  from  corrections  based  on  conformity  clearance  decisions 
amounted to EUR 107.9 million with additional amounts expected by the end of 
the budget year; 

the  revenue  from  irregularities  amounted  to  approximately  EUR 70.3 million 
with additional amounts also expected by the end of the budget year, and  

at this point in time, most of the revenue from the milk levy has been collected 
and it amounts to approximately EUR 78.7 million; 

Finally, the amount of assigned revenue eventually carried over from 2012 into 2013 
amounted  to  EUR 1 245.6 million  including  the  balance  of  approximately  EUR  755 
million in the temporary Sugar Restructuring Fund after all due payments under the 
Fund  were  made.  This  amount  is  significantly  higher  than  the  initially  estimated 
amount of EUR 905 million. 

Therefore, 
the  amount  of  assigned  revenue  available  for  financing  EAGF 
expenditure, on 28 February 2013, amounts to EUR 1 502.5 million. At this point in 

 
 
time,  the  Commission  estimates  that  the  amount  of  assigned  revenue  still  to  be 
collected  would  amount  to  EUR 371.1 million  (estimated  assigned  revenue  to  be 
generated  in  the  2013  budget  of  EUR 628 million  of  which  EUR 256.9 million  has 
been collected). 

5. 

CONCLUSIONS 

The provisional execution of the 2013 EAGF budget's appropriations, for the period 
up  to  28  February  2013,  shows  that  monthly  reimbursements  to  Member  States 
exceeded  the  expenditure  profile  for  budget  execution  based  on  the  indicator,  by 
approximately EUR 1 755.9 million. This was mostly due to the general authorisation 
granted  by  the  Commission  to  pay  advances  of  direct  aids  as  of  16  October  2012 
which led to a faster payment rhythm for these aids. This rhythm is expected to slow 
down as the payment deadline of 30 June 2013 for these aids approaches. 

Assigned  revenue  amounting  to  EUR 1 502.5  million  is  already  available,  and  an 
amount of EUR 371.1 million is still expected to be collected in 2013. At this point it 
time, the Commission expects that the amount of assigned revenue which is available 
as  well  the  one  which  will  become  available,  in  the  course  of  the  year,  will  be 
sufficient to cover the funding of the operational funds for producer organisations and 
of  the  single  payment  scheme  as  originally  expected  when  the  2013  budget  was 
established.
