                               EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
Temporary amendment of the Financial Regulation of 21 December 1977 in
order to incorporate into the financial rules the consequences of
the amendments to Régulation No 729 / 70 ( 1 )
In accordance with the principles set out in C0M(87)100 and 101 for
administering EAGGF Guarantee appropriations , the Commission has sent
the institutions concerned a proposal for amending the EAGGF financing
arrangements to replace the present system of advances by a system of
reimbursements ( 2 ).
However , because of the particular budget difficulties in 1987 to which a
solution had to be found quickly , and in accordance with the conclusions
reached by the European Council on 29 and 30 June , the Commission , on
10 July , proposed an interim solution involving a mechanism of " advances
against amounts booked to the accounts ". The Council adopted this
proposal on . C ).
Now the amendments to the financing arrangements for the agricultural
policy need to be incorporated into the spécial provisions in the Financial
Régulation of 21 December 1977 .
As these interim arrangements are to cover the final two months of 1987 ,
the decision on this proposal should be taken in time for the 1987
accounts to be closed in accordance with the requirements of the system set
up .
It is therefore essential that the authorities involved each take
appropriate steps to ensure that the arrangements can take effect
in good time .
