                                EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
Article 5 of the Decision of 7 May 1985 on the Communities' system of own
          1
resources provides for 10% of the own resources paid over to the Commission ,
other than those accruing from VAT ,       to be refunded to the Member States to
                                                                                2
cover collection costs . Under Article 9(2 ) of Council Regulation No 2891 / 77
these refunds have to be made within thirty days following notification of the
monthly payments of own resources .
In draft supplementary and amending budget No 1 / 87 the Council decided to
defer payment of 400 million ECU until the beginning of 1988 , this being the
amount of the flat-rate refunds of collection costs which will not be paid to
the Member States from August 1987 .
The present proposed amendment to Regulation No 2891 / 77 gives effect to the
Council 's decision .
The Commission considers that the 400 million ECU in question should be
entered in a new heading in the 1988 budget in order to illustrate clearly the
application of the provision that specific appropriations for this amount must
be authorized .

 THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
 Having  regard    to   the  Treaty   establishing   the   European  Coal  and  Steel
 Community , and in particular Article 78h thereof ,
 Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,         and
 in particular Article 209 thereof ,
 Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community ,
 and in particular Article 183 thereof ,
 Having regard to Council Decision 85 / 257 / EEC ,     Euratom of 7 May 1985 on the
                                               1
 Communities'   system of own      resources ,   and in particular Article 7(2 ) thereof ,
 Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
 Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament ,
 Having regard to the opinion of the Court of Auditors ,
 Whereas the shortfall in traditional own resources in 1987 cannot be offset by
 own resources accruing from value added tax since the maximum rate of
 mobilization , set at 1,4% by Decision 85 / 257 / EEC , has already been reached ;
 whereas expenditure must therefore be reduced in 1987 ;
