            COUNCIL DECISION (EU) 2022/2062
of 25 October 2022
         
on the financial contributions to be paid by the parties to the European Development Fund to finance that Fund, as regards the third instalment for 2022


THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to the Internal Agreement between the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States of the European Union, meeting within the Council, on the financing of European Union aid under the multiannual financial framework for the period 2014 to 2020, in accordance with the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement, and on the allocation of financial assistance for the Overseas Countries and Territories to which Part Four of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union applies (1) and in particular Article 7(2) in conjunction with Article 14(3) thereof,


Having regard to Council Regulation (EU) 2018/1877 of 26 November 2018 on the financial regulation applicable to the 11th European Development Fund, and repealing Regulation (EU) 2015/323 (2), and in particular Article 19(5) thereof,


Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:







(1)


In accordance with the procedure laid down in Articles 19 to 22 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1877, the Commission is to present a proposal by 10 October 2022 setting out the amount of the third instalment of the contribution for 2022.












(2)


Pursuant to Article 46 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1877, the European Investment Bank (EIB) is to send to the Commission its updated estimates of commitments and payments under the instruments it manages.












(3)


Pursuant to Article 20(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1877, calls for contributions are to first use up the amounts laid down for previous European Development Funds (‘EDFs’). A call for funds pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2018/1877 should therefore be made for the Commission and for the EIB.












(4)


Pursuant to Article 152 of the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community (3) (‘the Withdrawal Agreement’), the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (the ‘United Kingdom’) is to remain party to the EDF until the closure of the 11th EDF and all previous unclosed EDFs. Pursuant to Article 153 of the Withdrawal Agreement, however, the United Kingdom’s share in decommitted funds from projects under the 11th EDF, where those funds have been decommitted after 31 December 2020, or previous EDFs is not to be reused.












(5)


Council Decision (EU) 2021/1941 (4) sets the annual amount of the contributions to be paid by the parties to the EDF for 2022 at EUR 2 500 000 000 for the Commission and at EUR 300 000 000 for the EIB.












(6)


In order to allow for the prompt application of the measures provided for in this Decision, this Decision should enter into force on the date of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,





HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:



Article 1
Parties to the European Development Fund shall pay the individual EDF contributions to the Commission and the European Investment Bank, as the third instalment for 2022, in accordance with the Annex.


Article 2
This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
