Amended proposal for a COUNCIL REGULATION   on the methods and procedure for making available the traditional and GNI-based own resources and on the measures to meet cash requirements (Recast)  /* COM/2011/0742 final - 2011/0185 (CNS) */  

	EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM1. CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSALOn 29 June 2011 the Commission adopted, as part of a broad package of proposals on the own resources system, a proposal for a Council Regulation on the methods and procedure for making available the traditional and GNI-based own resources and on the measures to meet cash requirements pursuant to Article 322(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (hereinafter "TFEU")[1]. It announced that it would present the relevant detailed regulations or amendments to existing legal acts as well as the related regulations pursuant to Article 322(2) TFEU by the end of 2011. Accordingly, the Commission adopted a proposal for a Council Directive on a common system of financial transaction tax (hereinafter "the FTT Directive")[2] on 28 September 2011. In addition, Council Regulations on making the own resource based on the financial transaction tax (FTT) available to the EU budget[3] and on calculating and making available the own resource based on value added tax (VAT)[4] are proposed together with this proposal.The purpose of this amended proposal is to ensure that cash requirements will be met under the new structure of EU financing introduced by the proposal for a Council Decision on the system of own resources of the European Union[5] and these new proposals.The Commission will examine the possibility to consolidate the provisions for determining and making available all the own resources of the Union in one single Regulation following an overall agreement on the own resources package.2. CONTENT OF THE PROPOSALApart from several purely formal adjustments related to the recast technique, only one change of substance is included in this amended proposal compared to the proposal made on 29 June 2011.Article 9(3), second subparagraph of the proposal, ' Determining amounts, timing for making available, adjustments':The analysis of the current system shows that up to two twelfths of GNI-based and current VAT own resources are systematically brought forward in the first quarter of the year to cover cash requirements, due mainly to expenditure of the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (EAGF):Financial year | Number of twelfths called in the first quarter | Amount called in advance |2009 | 5 | 24 billion EUR |2010 | 4,5 | 25 billion EUR |2011 | 4,3 | 21 billion EUR |The structure of EU financing for the period 2012 – 2020 is expected to change considerably with the ending of the current VAT own resource and the introduction of new own resources as from 1 January 2014[6].The estimated share of the GNI-based and the current VAT own resources in the EU budget revenue for 2012 is 85% (74% and 11%, respectively). In 2020, the current VAT own resource will no longer exist while it is estimated that the share of the GNI-based own resource will fall to 40%. In other words, the share of own resources based on a regular financial stream, pre-defined in the context of the budgetary procedure, will be halved compared to today. Accordingly, advance payments of twelfths of the corresponding GNI-based own resource will only bring cash to the EU budget for about half of the current amounts, ceteris paribus .The possibility of calling in advance other own resources, in particular the proposed new own resources based on VAT and on the FTT, appear less practicable. Those resources will be based on actual receipts collected by the Member States and the amounts made available to the EU budget will fluctuate accordingly. Organizing a payment of twelfths would require mechanisms of forecasts, and subsequent adjustments or balances exercises, thus adding an unnecessary layer of complexity to the system.Since it can be assumed that cash requirements will be in excess of the assets of the accounts in the first quarter of every year, even after calling in advance two GNI twelfths, it is proposed to double the number of twelfths available in advance (from two to four) in order to compensate the decrease of the GNI share in the EU financing. This is a mechanical adjustment of the existing system which will ensure the same capacity to face cash requirements of the EU budget as is the case today.ê 1150/2000 (adapted)è1 105/2009 Art. 1.1(a)ð new2011/0185 (CNS)Amended proposal for aCOUNCIL REGULATIONimplementing è1Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom on the system of the European Communities own resourcesç ð on the methods and procedure for making available the traditional and GNI-based own resources and on the measures to meet cash requirements (Recast) ïTHE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,Having regard to the Treaty Ö on the Functioning of Õ establishing the European Ö Union Õ Community, and in particular Article Ö 322(2) Õ 279 thereof,Having regard to Ö In conjunction with Õ the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, and in particular Article 183 Ö 106a Õ thereof,Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament[7],Having regard to the opinion of the European Court of Auditors[8],Whereas:ê 1150/2000 recital 1 (adapted)ð new1.

For reasons of clarity and rationality the said Regulation should therefore be codified ð Since further amendments are to be made, it should be recast in the interests of clarity ï .ê 1150/2000 recital 2 (adapted)The Community must have the own resources referred to in Article 2 of Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom available in the best possible conditions and accordingly arrangements must be laid down for the States to provide the Commission with the own resources allocated to the Communities.ê 1150/2000 recital 3 (adapted)Traditional own resources are levied by the Member States in accordance with laws, regulations and administrative provisions that are, where necessary, adapted to the requirements of Community regulations. The Commission must monitor such adaptation and, where necessary, make proposals.ê 1150/2000 recital 4 (adapted)The Council and the representatives of the Governments of the Member States, meeting within the Council, adopted a resolution on 13 November 1991 on the protection of the financial interests of the Community[11].ò new2.  Certain provisions of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 have been included in Council Regulation (EU) No […/…] laying down implementing measures for the system of own resources of the European Union[12] and should thus not be covered by this Regulation. Those provisions concern the rate of call of the own resource based on Gross National Income (GNI) referred to in Article 2(1)(d) of Council Decision […/…] on the system of own resources of the European Union[13], the calculation and budgeting of the balance, control and supervision of own resources and supplementary reporting requirements, as well as the Advisory Committee on Own Resources (ACOR).3.  The Union must have the own resources referred to in Article 2 of Decision […/…] available in the best possible conditions and accordingly rules should be laid down for the Member States to provide the Commission with those own resources. This Regulation takes over the rules on making available the traditional own resources referred to in Article 2(1)(a) of Decision […/…] and those in Article 2(1)(d) of that Decision (hereinafter "GNI-based own resource"), previously included in Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000. As the methods and procedure may vary considerably depending on the type of own resources concerned, provisions on making available the own resources referred to in Article 2(1)(b) and (c) of Decision […/…] should be laid down in separate regulations pursuant to Article 322(2) of the Treaty.ê 1150/2000 recital 5 (adapted)4.  The concept of establishment Ö should Õ must be defined in respect of the own resources and detailed rules Ö should Õ must be laid down for satisfying the obligation to establish the Ö traditional Õ own resources referred to in Article 2(1)(a) and (b) of Decision […/…] 94/728/EC, Euratom.ê 1150/2000 recital 65.  For own resources deriving from sugar levies, which need to be recovered in the budget year corresponding to the marketing year to which the expenditure relates, provision should be made for the Member States to make such levies available to the Commission during the budget year in which they are established.ê 1150/2000 recital 7 (adapted)The transparency of the own resources system should be improved and more information supplied to the budgetary authority.ê 1150/2000 recital 8 (adapted)6.  The Member States must keep at the disposal of the Commission and, where necessary, forward to it the documents and information needed to allow it to exercise the power conferred upon it as regards the Communities' own resources Ö of the Union Õ .ê 1150/2000 recital 97.  The national authorities responsible for the collection of own resources must be able to produce to the Commission at all times the documents substantiating the own resources collected.ê 1150/2000 recital 10The arrangements whereby the Member States report to the Commission, should make it possible for the latter to monitor Member States action to recover own resources, in particular in cases of fraud and irregularities.ê 1150/2000 recital 118.  Separate accounts should be kept for entitlements which have not been recovered. These accounts and the submission of a quarterly statement of such accounts should enable the Commission to monitor more closely the action taken by Member States to collect own resources, and particularly those compromised by fraud or irregularities.ê 1150/2000 recital 129.  A time limit should be laid down for relations between Member States and the Commission, since new entitlements established by Member States in respect of earlier years are deemed to be establishments for the current year.ê 1150/2000 recital 13 (adapted)ð new10.  Provision should be made, as regards the own resources accruing from value added tax, hereinafter called ‘VAT resources’, referred to in Article 2(1)(c) of Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom, for Member States to make available to the Community ð In order to ensure that the budget of the Union will be financed in all circumstances, a procedure should be laid down, as regards the GNI-based own resource created in accordance with Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1287/2003 of 15 July 2003 on the harmonisation of gross national income at market prices[14], for Member States to make available to the Union ï, in the form of constant monthly twelfths, the own resources entered in the budget and subsequently to adjust the amounts made available in accordance with the actual base of VAT resources ð relevant changes to GNI ï as soon as it is Ö they are Õ fully known.ò new11.  The impact of modifications in the GNI data made after the end of each financial year on the financing of gross reductions should be clarified.ê 1150/2000 recital 14 (adapted)This procedure is also to apply to the additional resource referred to in Article 2(1)(d) of the said Decision, hereinafter referred to as ‘the additional resource’, created in accordance with Council Directive 89/130/EEC, Euratom of 13 February 1989 on the harmonization of the compilation of the gross national product at market prices[15].ê 1150/2000 recital 15 (adapted)12.  The own resources must be made available in the form of an entry of the amounts due in an account opened for this purpose in the name of the Commission with the Treasury or with the body appointed by each Member State. In order to restrict the movements of funds to that which is necessary for the implementation of the budget, the Community Ö Union Õ must confine itself to drawing on the abovementioned accounts solely to cover the Commission's cash requirements.ê 1150/2000 recital 1613.  The payment of aid resulting from application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 of 30 June 1992 1251/1999 of 17 May 1999 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops[16] is mainly concentrated in the opening months of the year; whereas the Commission must have sufficient cash resources to make this payment.ê 1150/2000 recital 17ð new14.  Council Decision 94/729/EC of 31 October 1994 concerning budgetary discipline[17] provides for the entry in the general budget of the European Union ð In accordance with the principle ï of a reserve relating to Community loans and loan guarantees to non-member countries and in those countries a reserve for emergency aid. Amendments need to be made to cover the entry of the ð sound financial management, care should be taken that the cost of recovery of interest due on ï own resources corresponding to these reserves ð made available belatedly should not exceed the amount of the interest payable ï.ê 1150/2000 recital 18 (adapted)In order to ensure that the Community budget will be financed in all circumstances, the procedure for making available the contributions based on the gross national product, hereinafter referred to as the ‘GNP financial contributions’, referred to in Article 2(7) of Decision 88/376/EEC, Euratom should be laid down.ê 1150/2000 recital 19 (adapted)The balance to be carried forward to the following financial year should be defined.ò new15.  The reporting of write-off cases concerning established entitlements declared or deemed irrecoverable should be harmonized.ê 1150/2000 recital 20The Member States should conduct the checks and enquiries relating to the establishment and making available of own resources. The Commission should exercise its powers in accordance with this Regulation. The powers of the Commission should be stipulated with regard to the inspection measures on the additional resource.ê 1150/2000 recital 2116.  Close collaboration between Member States and the Commission will facilitate proper application of the financial rules relating to own resources.ò new17.  In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of this Regulation, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 laying down the rules and general principles concerning mechanisms for control by Member States of the Commission’s exercise of implementing powers[18].18.  The advisory procedure should be used for the adoption of implementing acts in order to establish detailed rules for the monthly statements of the accounts for the entitlements to traditional own resources and the quarterly statements of the separate accounts, as well as for the cases concerning irrecoverable amounts exceeding EUR 50 000, given the technical nature of those acts required for reporting purposes.19.  For reasons of coherence, continuity and legal certainty, provisions must be laid down to cover the changeover from the system under Council Decision (EC, Euratom) 2007/436[19] to that arising from Decision […/…]. Accordingly, following the ending of the VAT-based own resource, Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 should continue to apply for the procedures for making available and adjustment of revenue accruing from the application of a rate of call to the VAT base, depending on the relevant years, taking into account the effect on this revenue of the correction granted to the United Kingdom for budgetary imbalances for the years until 2012.20.  Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 should be repealed.21.
