 corresponding amount of 8 029 200 EUA in appropriations for commitment )

   102.4 n EUA on commitments of expenditure required for the implementation
   of the project .

   Undertaking" including , in the Annex , the statutes of that Joint
   Undertaking .

 this new part of the fusion 'programme by first using the appropriations
which had been entered in the 1976 and 1977 Budgets and were still available
 in 1978 .
In order to cover all th® Commission 5 s requirements for appropriations to
 continue this programme 9 the appropriations currently entered in Chapter 100
must remain available for the programme .

 immediately , as a precautionary measure , as follows ;

 - 8 029 200 EUA in appropriations for commitment
 from Chapter 100 to Item 335^» whence they will be carried over to 1979 in
