 ---pagebreak---  REASONS                                 "  ,
  1.   As explained in the Commission 's Communication ! taking into aooount
 the contributions decided on or planned "by a number of governments ,
 approximately $86 million of the 2^108 million required to finance the
                            Y                                *
 emergency aid plan for Zimbabwe prepared by the UNHCR and the Government
 in question has still to be found .
 2.    It is highly desirable for the Community to help cover this shortfall
 by granting, via the UNHCR , cash aid of 8m EUA under Article 950 of the
 Budget, as soon as possible .                       .
With the aid totalling 4 m EUA proposed under Article      930 of the Budget
 to finance reconstruction projects and food aid of 250 tonnes of skimmed
 milk powder on which a decision has yet to be taken , total aid from the
*
 Community would amount to some     6 million.
 3.    In view of the urgency of this aid it is impossible to wait until
 the 1980 Budget is adopted in order to obtain this sum. " Nor oan it be
 provided under the provisional twelfths arrangements since the second
 ceiling to be observed by the Commission ( the appropriation entered in
 the Draft Budget of 23 November 1979 ) is only 3 m EUA.
 The Commission hence requests the Budgetary Authority to approve the
 transfer of 8 to HJA from Chapter 92 (Pood aid ) to Article 950 .   This
 amount will , of course , have to be entered in Chapter $2 when the
  1980 Budget is adopted , in order to ensure that the food aid programme
 is not jeopardized .                          .                     •,
