Remarks

The GNI-based resource is an ‘additional’ resource, providing the revenue required to cover expenditure in excess of the amount yielded by traditional own resources, VAT-based payments, the plastic-based own resource and other revenue in any particular year. By implication, the GNI-based resource ensures that the budget is always balanced ex ante.
The GNI call rate is determined by the additional revenue needed to finance the budgeted expenditure not covered by the other resources (plastic-based own resource, VAT-based resource, traditional own resources and other revenue). Thus a call rate is applied to the GNI of each of the Member States.
The rate to be applied to the Member States’ GNI for the financial year 2023 is 0,5784 %.

Remarks

The ITER project aims to demonstrate fusion as a viable and sustainable source of energy by building and operating an experimental fusion reactor as a major step towards the creation of prototype reactors for fusion power stations that are safe, sustainable, environmentally responsible and economically viable. Fusion is expected to play an important role in Europe’s future energy landscape as a climate friendly energy source. It is particularly important following the 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change and the Union commitment to lead the way in decarbonising the economy and tackling climate change in a cost effective manner. In this regard, it will contribute to the European Green Deal objective of no net greenhouse gas emissions in 2050 and will foster the mobilisation of European high-tech industries, which are involved in the construction of ITER and provide the Union with a global competitive advantage in this promising sector.
The European Joint Undertaking for ITER and the Development of Fusion for Energy has been established by Decision 2007/198/Euratom. The tasks of the Joint Undertaking are as follows:






—


to provide the contribution of Euratom to the ITER International Fusion Energy Organisation,










—


to provide the contribution of Euratom to broader approach activities with Japan for the rapid realisation of fusion energy,










—


to prepare and coordinate a programme of activities in preparation for the construction of a demonstration fusion reactor and related facilities.




In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

Legal basis

Council Decision 2007/198/Euratom of 27 March 2007 establishing the European Joint Undertaking for ITER and the Development of Fusion Energy and conferring advantages upon it (OJ L 90, 30.3.2007, p. 58).

Remarks

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to cover actions focused on reinforcing Europe's capacities in high performance computing, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and advanced digital skills, development and deployment of cutting-edge and next generation semiconductor and quantum technologies and ensuring their wide use across the economy and society. Fostered simultaneously, these will help create a thriving data economy, promote inclusiveness and equal opportunities for all and ensure value creation. Most importantly, the programme will concentrate on the areas where no single Member State alone can ensure the level required for digital success. Focus will also be placed on those areas where public spending has the highest impact, notably on improving efficiency and quality of services in areas of public interest such as health, environment, climate, mobility and public administrations, and helping small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to adapt to digital change.
The Digital Europe Programme will also consider the added value of combining digital with other enabling technologies in order to maximise benefits from digitisation.
In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes and any other assigned revenue, entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.
The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover the interoperability block of the Digital Europe Programme that is the successor of the ISA2 programme that ended in December 2020.
Interoperability of European public services concerns all levels of administration: Union, national, regional and local. The aim of the interoperability block of the Digital Europe Programme is to eliminate fragmentation of European services, and to implement a holistic cross-sector and cross-border approach to interoperability. It will facilitate and support the design, development, update, use and deployment of interoperable solutions and frameworks by European public administrations, businesses and citizens. It will also offer public administrations access to testing and piloting of digital technologies, including their cross-border use.
The interoperability block will be implemented in close cooperation and coordination in the context of the Digital Europe Programme with DG CNECT, Member States and Commission services concerned via projects and accompanying measures (awareness raising, promotion, community building, etc.).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure aiming to reduce the economic, social and territorial disparities, which have arisen, particularly in countries and regions whose development is lagging behind, in connection with the speeding-up of economic and social restructuring, clean energy transition, digitalisation of the workplace, growing skills and labour shortages and the implications and impact of demographic change, including population ageing, in order to create a more social Europe. This is to be done in line with the principles of the European Pillar of Social Rights.
It will cover the following three categories of regions:






—


less developed regions, with a GDP per capita less than 75 % of the average GDP of the Union,










—


transition regions, with a GDP per capita between 75 % and 100 % of the average GDP of the Union,










—


more developed regions, with a GDP per capita above 100 % of the average GDP of the Union.




Promotion of equality between women and men horizontally and through specific actions should be part of the support provided by the ESF+ in order to increase the participation of women in employment as well as conciliation between working and personal life and combat the feminisation of poverty and gender discrimination in the labour market and in education and training.

The EPPO is responsible for investigating, prosecuting and bringing to judgment the perpetrators of, and accomplices to, criminal offences affecting the financial interests of the Union which are provided for in Directive (EU) 2017/1371 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 July 2017 on the fight against fraud to the Union's financial interests by means of criminal law (OJ L 198, 28.7.2017, p. 29) and determined by Regulation (EU) 2017/1939.

It includes operational expenditure related to the EPPO case management system, the IT exchange platform between the EPPO Central Office, the European Delegated Prosecutors and other judicial and law enforcement authorities in the Member States, which is a key element for the establishment and good functioning of the EPPO, and provisions for close protection services for senior EPPO staff, payment of the European Delegated Prosecutors and substantial translation costs for the operational needs of EPPO (Title 3).

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure related to supporting analytical studies in the field of employment and social affairs, and analyses of and studies on the social situation, demography and demographic change and family.
Actions on analyses of and studies on the social situation, demography and demographic change and family aim to promote better policy responses in the Union and the Member States to demographic, employment and social challenges, including to the challenges of the digital and green transitions and the need to ensure just transitions and promote inclusive growth. The appropriation is intended to cover costs for producing and disseminating high-quality analyses and comparative information in the context of the Commission’s political guidelines and the Union’s strategic objectives. This will support the identification of future priorities for employment and social policies, including gender-specific measures and the development of analytical, data and research capacities for assessing, evaluating and monitoring the socio-economic impacts of transitions to a digital, climate-neutral Europe, in particular through the following activities:






—


actions promoting the development of comparative analysis and the exchange of views and experience at all relevant levels (regional, national, Union and international) regarding the employment, social and demographic situation and the socio-economic trends in the Union, as well as the gender pay gap and discrimination against women in the workplace,










—


actions promoting the forward-looking identification of evidence gaps and socio-economic research and innovation needs,










—


actions supporting an observatory of the social situation, cooperation with regard to relevant activities by the Member States and international organisations, and the management of a technical support group for the European Alliance for Families,










—


studies, meetings of experts, dissemination of knowledge, information and publications directly linked to the achievement of the objectives of the strategy or measures falling under this item, and any other expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service contracts.




This appropriation is intended to cover in particular expenditure on the reporting referred to in the TFEU, including annual Commission reports on employment and social developments in Europe, biennial reports on demographic change and its implications, (inputs to) reporting on socio-economic impacts of the transition to climate neutrality and to a digital Europe, and Commission reports on problems concerning the social situation.
This appropriation is also intended to cover expenditure on analysis for the reporting referred to in the TFEU, as well as for the dissemination of knowledge on major employment, social and demographic challenges and in particular challenges of the digital and green transitions, and the ways of tackling them.
