accordance with Article 21(4 ) of the Financial Regulation and certified
 that the appropriations are available .

 I.   In accordance with Commission Regulation Mb 380/ 78 on the operation
of the system of advances in respect of expenses financed by the
Guarantee Section of the EAGGF , the Member States send a monthly summary
of their expenditure to the Commission by the 20th day of the following
month , that is by 20 January for expenditure in December *     In the case
of expenditure relating to storage , howevex*, amendments may be sent to
the Commission until 20 February .
On the basis of these statements , the Commission needs to make a
number of transfers from chapter to chapter- in accordance with
Article 10l(l ) of the Financial Regulation.
The EAGGF Committee has been consulted and has raised no objections to
the proposed transfers# The Commission will provide this Committee ^
and the budgetary authority , with detailed information on the utilization
of appropriations for 1981 as scon as final figures are available .
II .  The proposed transfers , amounting to 285 million ECU , are
adjustments required to permit the commitment and charging provided for
by Article 97 of the Financial Regulation . These are the final
adjustments required to 1981 appropriations as a result of expenditure
declared by paying bodies in the Member States .
1.   Transfers proposed
1.1   Reductions in appropriations are proposed for rice , milk and milk
      products , beef arid veal , eggs and poultrjmsat , fruit and
      vegetables and wine®
      In the case of rice the savings result from the sharp rise in
      world prices .
      Most of the reduction ( 60 million ECU) in the chapter for milk, snd
      milk products is made possible by the low rate of refunds . The
      remainder comes from lower-than-expected expenditure on the
      private storage of "butter ( 10 million ECU ), public storage costs
      (7 million ECU ) and special measures for absorbing surpluses of
 ---pagebreak---       "out t erfat s ',60 million   occasioned by the 1 01* level of
      butter stocks in 1981 .
      Savings on beef and veal are due to lower–than–expected expenditure
     on storage arising- fron the growth in exports and. coE «aquer.t
     reduction in recourse to intervention .
     The 13 million ECU to be transferred from Chapter 67
      ( Eggs and pcultrymeat ) is the result of savings on refunds , since
     the rates applied were lower than expected , although this was
     offset slightly by increased exports .
     In the case of fruit and vegetables , the 40 million ECU saving
     is the result of timelags in payment of aids for processed
     products .
     Of the saving of 68 million ECU in Chapter 69 ( Wine ) , 3 million ECU
     comes from refunds and 65 million ECU from intervention , mainly
     because advances earma-rked for distillation during the second half
     of 1981 were not utilized as anticipated .
1.2  It is proposed to increase the appropriations for oils ana fats ,
     sugar , tobacco , sheepmeat , other common organizations of the
   • market and MCAs .
     The severe shortfall in appropriations for production aid to oilseeds
     in the oils and fats chapter is due to increased expenditure resulting
     from a rise in the proportion of 1981 production dealt with in the
     same year .
     Appropriations for sugar proved inadequate because export refund
     rates rose sharply during the second half of the year as yorld market
     prices fell .
     A further 30 million ECU is required for tobacco because quantities
     in stock at 31 December 1981 were valued at less than expected.
     In addition a further 6.5 million ECU is required for expenditure
     on premiums and 1 million ECU for refunds .
 ---pagebreak---                                   - 3 -
Expenditure on sheepraeat premiums was slightly nigher than
expected , so necessitating a transfer of 1*7 aillion SGIJa
Under the heading of other cosmaon organisations of the market ,
there is a 5.8 .million ECU shortfall in appropriations for
cotton because of low world priceso
The requirement for a further 100 Billion ECU for MCAs arises
mainly from the considerable changes in the pattern of trade
between the United Kingdom and the other Jfesabsr States but
also from the decline in the value of sterling , which led to a
sharp fall in UK positive MCAs and hence to higher-than™expeoted
expenditure *
