                            EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
INTRODUCTION
111 this Communication tlie Commission proposes tnat the Council extend for
             » -
1981 , 1932 and 1983 the aid given by the Community to the United Nations
Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees ( UNRWA ) under the multi-
annual Convention concluded with that body on 12 June 1980 and covering
the period 1 January 1979 to 31 December 1980 .
To this end it is proposed -that for 1381 , 1982 and 1983 a Convention be
concluded between the EEC arid UNPJ'A to take over from the preceding
Convention , with seme amendirer.ts , for the three-year period in question .
The Convention would cover an initial period ( 1981 ) and would be renewed
annually for 1982 and 1983 .
This Communication also proposes the adoption of a regulation concerning
the supply of 6 086 tonnes of white sugar as food aid to UNRWA in each
of the years covered by the new Convention ,

: I. STRUCTURE OF FOOD AID SUPPLIED TO UNRWA AND DISTRIBUTED BY THE AGENCY
      UNRWA , whose mandate has been       extended by the United Nations General
      Assembly until June 1984 , implements two different programmes under the
      Leading of food aid ( 1 ) ( which forms part of relief services that also
      embrace help with housing and assistance for people suffering particular
      Lardship ) :
                   the Basic Rations Programme ;
                   the Supplementary Feeding Programme .
      These programmes are implemented in five different territories ( Lebanon ,
      Syria , Jordan , West Bank and the Gaza Strip ).
         Basic Rations Programme
         Under this programme there are around 824 000 recipients . The number
         of recipients is at present governed by a ceiling { 2 ) and the list
         of refugees is constantly updated , as the inclusion of each new
         recipient ( e.g. a refugee child in need who is entitled to rations
         but is not receiving any because of the ceiling ) depends on the
         removal of a former recipient on account of death , absence , employment ,
         and so on .
  (1)    The Agency also organizes :
          i » an education programme ( elementary , general and higher education ),
              vocational training and university scholarships , involving around
              314 000 pupils , 3 460 vocational training places and 360 study
              grants respectively . The number of instructors is 9 500 ;
         ii „ a health service ( preventive and curative medicine , immunization
              programme , PMI , school medical service ). The Supplementary Feed­
              ing Programme is linked with this health service as part of the
              arrangements for monitoring , protecting and improving the stand­
              ard of nutrition .
  (2)    It should be compared with the total number of refugees registered
         with UNRWA, namely 1 844 318 persons .                              ,
 ---pagebreak--- The programme provides a monthly ration of flour (5 kg ), oils and
fats ( 0.375 kg ) and sugar ',0,5 Kg ) for each recipient . For the
refugees in greatest need the flour ration is increased, ( to 10 kg ).
The rations distributed come from contributions in kind from various
donors ( 1 ), as UNRWA has halted purchases foodstuffs , on account of
its budget deficit .
Suppl^entary_Feeding_Programme
This programme is designed for the most vulnerable among the refugees .
As such it is closely linked with the health programme run by UNRWA .
There are three aspects to. the Supplementary Feeding Programme :
( a ) Distribution of hot meals and vitamins A and D in a hundred or so
      feeding centres on six days each week to children under eight and.
      - subject to medical prescription - to older people ( around
      35 000 persons in all ).
Under the 1979-80 Convention , the Community 's contribution to this
programme was as follows :
         73 400 tonnes of cereals ,
         12 000 tonnes of sugar ,
          6 935 tonnes of butteroil ,
            650 tonnes of skimmed milk powder .
These products are delivered cif and a flat-rate contribution of
US 035 per tonne is made to cover internal transport and distribution
costs , The total estimated value of these contributions was around
22.87 million ECU .
 ---pagebreak---   ( b ) Distribution of whole or skimmed milk in milk distribution centres
        and PMI centres to children under three ( this programme covers
        50 000 children ) „
 ( c ) Distribution of extra rations ( mainly flour and butteroil ) to
        pregnant women , nursing mothers arid people who are sick .
It should be emphasized that -this programme for the most vulnerable
among the refugees is almost wholly Community-financed . The Community
supplies foodstuffs ( 1 ) plus a cash contribution of around US $3.5
million to help implement the programme ( purchase of additional
foodstuffs such as corned beef , pulses , local products and vitamins ;
upkeep of distribution centres ; remuneration of staff responsible
for implementing the programme ) .
                                     +
                               +         +
The implementation of these programmes in 1979 and 1980 by means of
the allocations made under the current Convention ( 1979-80 ) is dealt
with in Annex IV .
For 1979 and 1980 the Community contributed to UNRWA the following :
           6 600 tonnes of cereals ,
           1 600 tonnes of skimmed milk powder ,
             165 tonn.es of butteroil ,
             172 tonnes of sugar ,
( these products being delivered to the cif stage )
plus a total cash contribution of US $6 866 000 . The total value of
the programme can be estimated at 6.92 million ECU .
 ---pagebreak--- UNRWA 'S REQUEST AND PROPOSED CO^CINTTY RESPONSE
A. UNRJA 's request for 1981 , 1982 and 1983
   in ordar to continue the progra .nrirr .ea described abovxs , 'UKf?K,<v htia
 . requested the following quantities for 1S81 :
           29 743 tonnes of wheat flour ,
              152 tonnes of milled rice .
            1 632 tonnes of skommed milk powder ,
            3 900 tonnes of butteroil ,
            6 086 tonnes of sugar .                                '   11     ' -
                                                                        I • *     J: !
   Ihese quantities , which cover part of the Basic Rations Programme
   and also the Supplenentary Feeding Programme ( 1 ), aire similar to
   those requested in 1979 and 1980 and to those allocated under the 1979-
   1980     Convention . The reason for the increase in the request for
   skimmed milk powder ( an additional 82 tonnes for the Basic Rations
   Programme ) is that the number of recipients will be around 61 000
   instead of 38 000 as in 1980 .
   The flat-rate contribution of US 035 per tonne of product received
   under the Basic Rations Programme ( around 38 060 tonnes ) is unchanged .
   The distribution between the two programmes is as follows :
   Basic Rations Programme :
           27 593 tonnes of wheat flour ,
              732 tonnes of skimmed milk powder .
            3 735 tonnes of butteroil ,
            6 000 tonnes of sugar
   Supplementary Feeding Programme ;
            2 150 tonnes of wheat flour ,
              152 tonnes of milled rice ,
              900 tonnes of skimmed milk powder ,
              165 tonnes of butteroil ,
               86 tonnes of white sugar .
   The quantities for the subsequent years ( 1982 and 1983 ) should be of
   a similar order of magnitude .                                                ,
 ---pagebreak---  The cash contribution for implementing the Supplementary Feeding
 Programme ( US £3 916 917 ) is 8.8% up over the 1980 contribution
 ( US $3 6oc 000 ) • This limited increase is the result of a reduction
 - which will be maintained in 1981 ( 1 ) - in tine scope of the prooramme
 implemented in 1980 .
 Analysis of the various items of expenditure financed by this contrib­
 ution also shows that :
    i . the item for the purchase of foodstuffs ( corned beef , tomato
        paste , pulses , burghol ) is sharply higher : US £367 000 in 1980 ( 2 ),
        US £704 997 in 1981 . It should be pointed out that the corned beef
        and tomato paste are of Community origin .
• ii . The item for the purchase of local products ( fruit and vegetables )
        and vitamins is stable : US £753 000 in 1980 and US £776 000 in
        1981 .
 iii . The total for items directly benefiting the people being assisted
        will be US £1 480 000 in 1981 , equivalent to 37.81% of the total
        cost of the programme ( 3 ) .
 If this reduction ( age of recipients lowered from eight to six years )
 were maintained in 1982 and 1983 , the cash contribution needed for the
 Supplementary Feeding Programme would be US £4 242 000 in, 1982
                                                US £4 667 000 in 1983 .
 However , UNRWA is considering requesting the restoration of the
 programme to its original level .
 This figure is below that for 1979 ( US £594 000 ) for the reasons
 given in Annex IV : Implementation of the 1979-80 Convention .
 Corresponding percentage in 1979 :      35.13%
                              in 1980 :  31.01%
 ---pagebreak---              costs are accounted for mair-ly by the implementation cf the
             programme of hot meals distributed on six days each week to
             children under six , using the products referred to above .
    B. ProP°sed_response_to_UNRWA_|_s request
       1 . Products
           The allocations of products for 1981 could be as follows ( 1 ):
                40 000 tonnes of unprocessed cereals ( corresponding to
                                 29 743 tonnes of wheat flour and 152 tonnes
                                 of milled rice ) ,
                 1 632 tonnes of skimmed milk powder ,
                 3 900 tonnes of butteroil ,
                 6 086 tonnes of white sugar .
           These quantities meet the request .in full and represent , taking
           into account their delivery to the cif stage and the cash contrib­
           ution of US £35 for transport and distribution of products under
           the Basic Rations Programme , an estimated value at world prices
           of 18.64 million ECU and 32„35 million ECU at internal prices .
       2 „ Financial aid
           Given the trend of expenditure relating to the Supplementary
           Feeding Programme ( limited growth , redistribution of different
           .items ) , the annual cash contribution for 1981 could be set at
           US #3 920 000 ( 2 ) .
(1)  These allocations are included , as regards the cereals , skimmed milk
     povvder and butteroil , in the corresponding food aid programmes for
     1981 . Delivery to the cif stage and the flat-rate contribution ( US $35 )
     will be charged against item 9240 ( transport costs ) in the 1981 budget .
(2)  This contribution will be charged against item 9250 relating to the
     EEC-UNRWA Convention , to which funds will be transferred from the
     appropriation of 3 000 000 ECU entered in Chapter 100 .
                                                                           •/• • •

    Total aid from the European Economic Community to UNRWA would amount
    to :
            22 000 000 ECU at world prices , and
            36 477 000 ECU at internal prices
    over the initial period of the new Convention (1 January - 31 December
    1981 ).
3 . Special nature of the proposed new Convention
    The new Convention should cover a three-year period ( 1981 , 1982 and
    1983 ). In so far as the quantities of products , flat-rate contribution
    and cash contribution are concerned , it covers an initial period of
    one year (1 January - 31 December 1981 ) . It would be extended on an
    annual basis with or without amendments - notably 4s regards allocat­
    ions - until December 1983 „
PROPOSED ACTION
The Commission considers that Community support for UNRWA should be
continued and that the request that a new Convention be concluded for
a three-year period ( 1981 , 1982 and 1383 ) should be accepted . The
Convention , covering an initial period from 1 January to 31 December
1981 , would be extended on an annual basis until 31 December 1983 by-
agreement between the two parties . The Commission therefore proposes
that the Council adopt the following decision , the text of which is
attached :
            Council Decision ( EEC ) concluding the Convention between
            the European Economic Community arid the United Nations
            Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees { UNRWA) on
            aid to refugees in the Near East .
The CouriC .il should also adopt :
            a Regulation on the supply of white sugar as food aid to the
            United Nations Belief and Works Agency for Palestine
            refugees ( UNRWA ).

                       Implementation of "the 1979-80 Convention
 Given the length of time taken to conclude the Convention for 1979 and 1980 ,
 products were supplied wherever possible on the basis of annual food aid
 programmes . However , this was not possible in the case of sugar and the .
 products supplied for the Supplementary Feeding Programme , for which a
 regulation and the Convention were necessary .
 Furthermore , the size of the cash contribution to the financing of the .
  Supplementary Feeding Programme ( US 03 600 000 compared with initial
 expenditure of US 04 006 000 ) caused UNRWA to take steps to reduce
 expenditure under this programme
 Nevertheless the implementation of aid can be regarded as having been at a
 normal level over the 1979-80 period taken as a whole ,, most of tine quanti­
 ties having been delivered by 31 December .1980 ,,

         over a period ending 29 February 1980 , The balance (7 031,028 t ) was
         distributed to 325 556 people ( 2 ) in the period April-July 1980 ,,

    •Shipments of butteroil amounted to ?. 1S6 U 74? t ( see Annex IV A ; Ship­
    ments ) out of an allocation of 3 200 t „ A total of 1 .527,181 t was
    distributed to 323 327 people ( 1 ) ovay a period ending 29 February
    1980 . The balance (1 669 a 566 t ) was distributed to 824 500 recipients
    between April and July 1980 ( 2 ) „
    The stocks carried over ( 3% of the flour allocation and 52% of the
    butteroil ) bridged the gap until the shipments for 1980 arrived in
    the summer ( 3 ) .
    The distribution of sugar amounted to 2,-4 kg per recipient on account
    of the delay in delivery *
    For the implementation of this programme ( internal transport and
    distribution of products ) UNRWA received a cash contribution of
    US 01 069 868.69 which was calculated on the basis of the quantities
    of flour and butteroil delivered . A contribution of US £209 012.09 was
    made for the same purpose in respect of sugar .

         product received .
2 . Implementation of the Supplementary Feeding Programme in 1979 and 1980
     As no delivereis were made before 1980, the Agency kept the Supplementary
    Feeding Programme going by drawing on its stocks , which will be restored
     as and when deliveries are made .
    A. 1979
         Details of the implementation of this programme are given in Annex IV B :
         Balance sheet of the Supplementary Feeding Programme implemented by
         UNRWA in 1979 . In this connection it may be noted that the distribution
         of butteroil under this programme ( for which no provision was made prior
         to 1980 ) was carried out using quantities allocated under the Basic
         Rations Programme .
         For the operation of this programme in 1979 { purchase of local products ,
         comed beef ( 340 tonnes Hi ), tomato paste ( 24 tonnes ) ( 2 ), adirmiisfc^tive
         costs ) „ the Community made a cash contribution of US $3 266 000 . Expen­
         diture actually incurred by UNRWA amounted to US #3 358 846 ( see Annex
         V A ). A compensatory payment was made as part of the payments for 1979 *
     3 . 1980
         Shipments of products are under way ( 3 ) and will be completed in April
         1981 . The products will be used under conditions similar to those for
         the 1979 programme .

Maintaining th previous levej. of services provided would have
required a cash contribution of US $4 100 000 towards the purchase
of additional products and operating expenses f but because the
request was made at a late stage the planned contribution
( US 03 600 000 ) could not be .increased . In order to make up the
shortfall UMRWA reduced its purchases of corned beef ( 115 t ) and.
cut staff costs . In addition , the age of the i*ecip.ients was lowered
from eight to six years „ The programme should be back to normal
as regards rations in 1981 and. UNRWA envisages restoring it to its
1979 level in 1982 ( age of recipients raised once more to eight
years ) .
