               1.Introduction
            
            
               On 21 June 2018, the Commission transmitted the draft budget for 2019 in all official languages
                  9
               . On 4 September 2018, the Council completed its reading of the draft budget and on 25 October 2018 the European Parliament adopted its reading. On 16 October the Commission transmitted amending letter 1/2019 with updated estimates for the year 2019.  As the European Parliament adopted amendments to the draft budget which could not be accepted by the Council, a Conciliation Committee was convened, in accordance with Article 314 §4(c) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU).
            
            
               The Conciliation Committee worked over a period of twenty-one days, between 30 October and 19 November 2018. Although significant progress was made during the discussions, it was not possible to reconcile the positions of the European Parliament and Council within this period, in particular with regard to the application of the new Article 15.3 of the Financial Regulation on making appropriations corresponding to decommitments available again for research projects. However, draft amending budget no 6/2018
                  10
                was agreed by both the European Parliament and the Council
                  11
               .
            
            
               In the absence of agreement in the Conciliation Committee, the Commission now submits a second draft budget for 2019, in accordance with Article 314 §8 of the TFEU. With this proposal, the Commission is seeking to reconcile the positions of the European Parliament and Council, without recourse to a further period of conciliation because of timing constraints. If no agreement on the budget can be reached before the end of 2018 the provisional twelfths regime would take effect as from 1 January 2019. This is a procedure set out in Article 315 §1 TFEU, which would cause delays in the implementation of key policies and programmes, in particular in the field of agriculture, and would prevent the commencement of any new activities. 
            
            
               With the imperative of reaching a timely adoption of the 2019 budget, the Commission proposal for a second draft budget for 2019 builds on the progress made in the Conciliation Committee, which to a large extent restored the Commission’s original draft budget, as amended by Amending letter no 1/2019
                  12
               , with some significant reinforcements in commitment appropriations for key programmes contributing to growth and jobs (such as Erasmus+ and the Youth Employment Initiative) and with some decreases and redeployments especially in heading 4 following the readings of the Council and the European Parliament  of the original draft budget. A targeted increase of Horizon 2020 is proposed through the application of Article 15.3 of the Financial Regulation. The overall level of payments following the changes in commitments and also rebalancing some frontloading in 2018 is lower compared to Amending letter 1/2019.

                        The second draft budget 2019 is based on the forecast of GNI as included in the technical adjustment of the MFF adopted on 23 May 2018 (COM(2018) 282).

                        'Other Special instruments' includes the ‘Emergency Aid Reserve (EAR)’, the ‘European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF)’ and the ‘European Union Solidarity Fund (EUSF)’. 
                     
                  
               
               In terms of commitment appropriations (including special instruments), the total expenditure proposed in the second draft budget (DB) 2019 is EUR 165 605,6 million, corresponding to 1,00 % of GNI, that is EUR 4 909,2 million more than in 2018 (+ 3,1 %), when including amending budgets 1 to 5/2018 and draft amending budget 6/2018. Overall, this leaves a combined margin of EUR 1 291,1 million under the various ceilings of the MFF taking into account the use of the Global margin for commitments (EUR 1 464,7 million), the mobilisation of the Flexibility Instrument (EUR 985,6 million) and the offset of the use of the Contingency Margin for migration-related expenditure mobilised in 2017 (EUR 253,9 million).
            
            
               For payment appropriations (including special instruments), the requested total expenditure is EUR 148 198,9 million, corresponding to 0,90 % of GNI. This is an increase of EUR 3 431,0 million compared to 2018 (+ 2,4 %) when including amending budgets 1 to 5/2018 and draft amending budget 6/2018. This leaves a margin of EUR 19 831,4 million under the MFF ceiling, taking into account the impact on the 2019 payment appropriations of the mobilisations of the Flexibility Instrument in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 (EUR 909,8 million).
            
         
         
            
               Commitment appropriations for Competitiveness for Growth and Jobs (heading 1a) are set at EUR 23 145,4 million. This is an increase of 5,2 % compared to 2018, which mainly relates to the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF), Horizon 2020, Erasmus and the European Defence Industrial Development Programme (EDIDP), leaving no margin under this heading and requiring the use of the Global margin for commitments (EUR 63,4 million). Payment appropriations increase by 2,1 % to EUR 20 521,5 million.
            
            
               For Economic, Social and Territorial Cohesion (heading 1b) commitment appropriations increase by 3,0 % to EUR 57 192,0 million, leaving no margin under this heading after the use of the Global Margin for Commitments to finance the Youth Employment Initiative (EUR 350,0 million). Payment appropriations increase by 1,1 % to EUR 47 035,4 million. 
            
            
               Commitment appropriations of EUR 59 642,1 million are proposed for Sustainable Growth: Natural Resources (heading 2). This level of expenditure represents a 0,7 % increase compared to 2018, leaving a significant margin of EUR 701,9 million under the ceiling. Payment appropriations amount to EUR 57 399,9 million, increasing by 2,4 % compared to 2018. Integrating the latest update on assigned revenue, the funding for market-related expenditure and direct aids is EUR 43 191,9 million in commitment appropriations, and EUR 43 116,4 million in payment appropriations.
            
            
               Security and Citizenship (heading 3) sees a 8,4 % increase in commitment appropriations to EUR 3 786,6 million, leaving no margin under this heading after the mobilisation of the Flexibility Instrument (EUR 985,6 million). Payment appropriations increase by 18,3 % to EUR 3 527,4 million.
            
            
               Global Europe (Heading 4) sees an increase in commitment appropriations of 12,4 % to EUR 11 319,3 million (including the impact of the extension of the Facility for Refugee in Turkey), leaving no margin under this heading and requiring the use of the Global margin for commitments (EUR 1 051,3 million). Payment appropriations increase by 5,1 % to EUR 9 358,3 million.

               The decrease of commitment appropriations is fully attributed to higher assigned revenue arising from the EAGF surplus of 31 October 2018 which will cover the full needs of the sector as updated in Amending letter 1/2019. 
            
            
               As a consequence, the level of commitments is proposed to be set at EUR 59 642,1 million, leaving a margin of EUR 701,9 million under the expenditure ceiling of heading 2.

               As a consequence, and after taking into account pilot projects and preparatory actions (EUR 4,1 million) proposed under section 3.1.3 above, the level of commitment appropriations is proposed to be set at EUR 9 943,0 million, leaving a margin of EUR 589,1 million under the expenditure ceiling of heading 5, after the use of EUR 253,9 million of the margin to offset the mobilisation of the Contingency margin in 2017.
            
            
               3.2.7.Special instruments: EGF, EAR and EUSF
            
            
               Commitment appropriations for the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF), for the Emergency Aid Reserve (EAR) and for the European Union Solidarity Fund (EUSF) are proposed to be set at the level of the original draft budget, as amended by Amending letter 1/2019.
            
            
               3.3.General approach for payment appropriations
            
            
               The overall level of payment appropriations is proposed to be set at the level of the original draft budget, as amended by Amending letter 1/2019, with the following amendments:
            
            
               1.Firstly, account is taken of the proposed level of commitment appropriations for non-differentiated expenditure, for which the proposed level of payment appropriations is equal to the level of commitment appropriations. This includes the additional reduction of agricultural expenditure by EUR 253,0 million. This approach is applied, by analogy, to the EU contribution to decentralised agencies and the Guarantee Fund for external actions. The combined effect is a proposed decrease of EUR 375,0 million;
            
            
               2.The payment appropriations for all new pilot projects and preparatory actions included in the second draft budget are proposed to be set at 50% of the corresponding commitment appropriations, or at the level proposed by Parliament in its reading of the original draft budget, if lower. In the case of extension of existing pilot projects and preparatory actions, the level of payment appropriations is proposed to be that defined in the original draft budget plus 50% of the corresponding new proposed commitment appropriations, or at the level proposed by Parliament in its reading of the original draft budget, if lower. The combined effect is a proposed increase of EUR 57,5 million;

               ·The modalities for lifting the reserve on budget line 18 03 01 01 are proposed as follows:
            
            
               "An amount of EUR 460 million foreseen in the legislative financial statement of the Commission proposal to recast the Dublin III Regulation (COM(2016)270 final of 4 May 2016) is put in reserve pending the adoption of that legislative proposal. This reserve may be released by means of a transfer in accordance with Article 30.2(a) of the Financial Regulation following the adoption of the basic act.
            
            
               If the act has not been adopted by 1 February 2019, the Commission may present one or more proposals for transfers in accordance with Article 31 of the Financial Regulation to make alternative use of that amount for the benefit of budget line 18 03 01 01."
            
            
               It is proposed to modify the budget remark of budget item 18 03 01 01 accordingly.
            
            
               ·Given the adoption, on 28 September 2018, of the legal base of the European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking
                  17
               , the reserves on the budget lines 09 03 05 31, 09 04 07 33 and 09 04 07 34 are proposed to be lifted.

               Besides the amendment proposed to the text of the budget remark of article 08 02 08 in section 3.2.1 above, it is also proposed to include amendments introduced by the European Parliament to the text of budget remarks in its reading of the original draft budget in the second draft budget, with the exception of those on budget lines listed in the table below. This is on the understanding that amendments introduced by the European Parliament cannot modify or extend the scope of an existing legal base, or impinge on the administrative autonomy of institutions, and that the action can be covered by available resources.

               4.Concluding Remarks
            
            
               By proposing a second 2019 draft budget, which builds on the progress made in the Conciliation Committee, the Commission seeks to create the conditions for a swift adoption of the 2019 budget, within the tight timeframe before the end of the year 2018.
            
            
               The timely adoption and entry into force of the 2019 budget will ensure the proper implementation of the policies and programmes of the European Union. The Commission will do its utmost to achieve this goal.

                        Draft amending budget No 6/2018 was also part of the package discussed in the Conciliation Committee, however its adoption was planned for November, so as to be able to take into account the necessary adjustments of own resources, in particular the VAT and GNI balances which affect the amounts to be made available on the first working day of December 2018.
