• Den særlige godtgørelse for landbrug i bjergdistrikter, som Fællesskabet ind førte i 1975, er først og fremmest forbeholdt landbrugere, der er fastboende i bjergområder, og som lader de besætninger, som der kan ydes godtgørelse for, overvintre.
The Community budget contains various types of revenue, including customs duties and agricultural levies (the 'traditional own resources'), the VAT resource ' and the 'fourth resource' based on the Member States' GNP.
Også deltidslandbrugere kan modtage godtgørelsen, men der stilles visse indkomstbetingelser, og land bruget skal drives i høje bjerge.
The cases discussed in this section concern, as regards the financial impact, only traditional own resources, which account for about 20% of all budget revenue.
• Præmien for opretholdelse af mal kekvægbesætninger blev indført i 1980 og har haft stigende betydning siden re formen af den fælles landbrugspolitik.
Cases handled here involve unwarranted applications for preferential schemes and attempts to circumvent common commercial policy measures, including anti-dumping duties and quantitative restrictions imposed under textile agreements.
Betingelsen for at modtage præmien er, at landbrugeren skal opdrætte en mal kekvægbesætning til kødproduktion.
From the beginning of 1955, the Commission introduced an instrument enabling it to act more effectively to avoid circumvention of quantitative limits.
I anledning af et kontrolbesøg i Ungarn med deltagelse af de italienske myndigheder kontrollerede de ungarske myndigheder ægtheden af visse dokumenter, som de italienske myndigheder havde fået forelagt med henblik på udbetaling af eksportrestitutioner for smør. Disse dokumenter viste sig at være falske.
Pursuing customs fraud cases in 1994, the Commission organized 13 investigation missions to nonmember countries3by teams of Member State officials led by Commission officials and eight missions by teams composed solely of Commission of ficials.
Ifølge vidneberetninger optaget på stedet var de transporterede produkter slet ikke smør.
The Commission regularly had to remind certain Member States, firms and professional associations of their obligations as declarants (principals).
De italienske myndigheder fandt på grundlag heraf frem til andre forfalskede dokumenter, der var blevet indsendt med henblik på at få udbetalt eksportrestitutioner for olivenolie.
The declarant is liable to the customs of the importing Member State for payment of the duties ultimately found to be due by reason of the goods' origin, nature, value and so on, even if the declaration is made in good faith.

Textile goods and bed linen from Bangladesh
For 1995 (de ansøgninger, der er ind sendt i 1994) og eventuelt følgende regnskabsår suspenderes præmieudbetalingerne.
The Commission organized two missions to Kenya, the first in June/July to set up the investigation, which then took place in September and October.
Denne suspension vil blive opretholdt, så længe de franske myn digheder ikke har indført en struktur for forvaltning og kontrol af præmien, der opfylder kravene i artikel 8 i Rådets forordning (EØF) nr. 729/70 2).
The object was to look into the validity of goods movement certificates issued in Kenya and presented upon importation of textile products into the Union.
• De franske myndigheder skal for eksemplets skyld skride ind overfor de modtagere, der har begået ulovligheder.
A further 88 certificates were issued by the Bangladeshi authorities but for goods not complying with GSP rules of origin.
Kommissionen er rede til at bistå de franske myndigheder med at finde frem til og gennemføre særlige ordninger, således at disse sager kan blive eksempler for andre lignende regioner i Den Europæiske Union. on.
The Kenyan authorities subsequently acknowledged that over 200 certificates issued for T-shirts were invalid, as the T-shirts had never been in Kenya but were imported into the Community from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Mellem december 1992 og maj 1993 lossedes 63 containere med tobak i Constanze havn. Tobakken var blevet eksporteret af 6 italienske firmaer med Bukarest som mål og oplagredes i Constanza, indtil toldproceduren kunne begynde.
Investigations are still in motion to deter mine the true origin of goods not manufactured in Bangladesh and ascertain the own resources impact (estimated at ECU 2 million). lion).
• Der blev for 1993, det år, som kontrol len omfattede, afsløret alvorlige problemer med hensyn til forvaltning og kontrol af støtteordningen for landbrug i landdistrikter.
Most of these imports were into Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
Da de nødvendige plantesundhedsdokumenter hertil ikke forelå, indsendte import firmaet i Bukarest ikke importangivelse.
Investigations of this type always require the full cooperation of the country or countries concerned.
De lokale myndigheder foretog derfor en kontrol af varerne for at tage stilling til, hvad der videre skulle ske.
Bangladesh has been exemplary in this respect.
De rumænske myndigheder besluttede derefter
Textile goods from Pakistan
• Desuden suspenderedes forskud og ud betalinger fra EUGFL totalt for 1993, så længe der ikke er gennemført en re gulering af de enkeltsager, der er omtalt ovenfor.
The Kenyan authorities were asked to continue their investigations into manufacturers who had admitted having bought non-originating materials so as to ascertain whether the resultant end products had been exported with false certificates of origin.
For 1994 og eventuelt følgende regnskabsår suspenderes forskud og ud betalinger ligeledes, indtil de franske myndigheder har truffet de administrative foranstaltninger, der er nødvendige for, at ordningen kan anvendes i over ensstemmelse med EF-reglerne og nationale bestemmelser.
The figures may have to be revised upwards, but the true origin of the goods cannot be finally established until further investigations have been carried out, notably in the UAE.
') Kommissionen har modtaget oplysninger, hvorefter muligheden for udbetaling af disse tilskud skulle være årsagen til de skovbrande, der ramte Korsika, især i sommeren 1994.
A mission to Pakistan in January 1994 to investigate a source of fraudulent imports revealed that about 2 000 tonnes of products originating there had been declared as originating in Bangladesh and the Unit ed Arab Emirates when imported into the Union.

Kommissionen foretager i øjeblikket en undersøgelse hos udbetalingsorganet i Rom (AIMA) for at afgøre, i hvilket omfang der er udbetalt restitutioner og/eller præmier til denne tobak. Det hidtidige resultat har vist, at der skal inddrives ca. 260 000 ECU og 2,2 mio. ECU som præmier.
Following joint inquiries conducted with the Lesotho authorities in February 1994, Lesotho agreed to withdraw more than 600 certificates of origin for textile products, notably jeans and trousers, where there was no evidence of preferential origin, but without impact on the textile agreements since the country of origin for the purposes of the agreements would have been either Lesotho or Ciskei.

Other products: cigarettes
Denne sag blev opdaget i andet halvår af 1993, da de nederlandske myndigheder blev klar over, at store mængder koncentreret druemost var sendt i transit via Rotterdam. terdam.
Abuse of transit schemes has become com mon since 1990 in agricultural import and export business with Central and Eastern Europe; there were as usual several such cases in 1994, though fraud techniques have evolved, particularly as regards false descriptions of nature.
Under et kontrolbesøg i Kroatien i november 1994 konstateredes det, at koncentreret spansk druemost blev blandet i kroatisk vin, der derefter blev eksporteret til Tyskland.
Through cooperation with the Member States, the Commission has been able to establish a common strategy in this matter involving action on four fronts — administrative, legal, technical and operational.
Desuden var den pågældende druemost blevet importeret under en midlertidig importordning') (artikel 18 i Rådets forordning (EØF) nr. 3665/872)), hvis bestemmelser imidlertid ikke var blevet over holdt.
Regarding the operational angle, work done in 1994 revealed six new cases in which cigarettes evaded the normal transit arrangements (Community/common and TIR); the duties evaded come to more than ECU 116 million.
De spanske myndigheder er blevet anmodet om at inddrive de uretmæssigt udbetalte restitutionsbeløb.
These cases point out the need for close cooperation with the authorities in countries in the European Economic Area and Central and Eastern Europe, with which the Union has agreements containing mutual assistance clauses.
De øvrige involverede medlemsstater er også blevet orienteret.
There is still a problem with Switzerland, which is where many fraud schemes are based.
Undersøgelserne viste, at Spanien fra november 1991 havde øget sin eksport af druemost meget, bl.a. på grund af en øget produktionskapacitet.
The Union has enjoyed the assistance of the Geneva-based International Road Union (IRU), which is responsible for managing the TIR (International Road Transport) scheme. *

An administrative cooperation mission to Hungary in December revealed 70 consignments totalling about 10 million cigarettes exported from Hungary to the Community with TIR carnets discharged with false stamps so that the cigarettes evade the nor mal procedures.
Det blev klart bevist, at de pågældende spanske eksportører hele tiden havde haft til hensigt at eksportere varerne til USA og Canada.

De pågældende partier kunne identificeres.
Suspicions were substantially borne out; the own resources evaded are estimated at around ECU 6 million in each country, a total of ECU 12 million in all.
Grundene til afvisningerne var kødets dårlige sundhedsmæssige og veterinære kvalitet (højt bakterieindhold...)
There were a number of difficulties in ad ministrative cooperation with the Indonesian authorities. The total amount of duties involved is estimated at ECU 16 million.

Two points are worth noting:

Textile goods from the United Arab Emirates
Her er der tale om præferenceordninger, som der ansøges om på grundlag af falsk dokumentation, samt om forsøg på bedra­geri over for den fælles handelspolitik, bl.a. med hensyn til antidumpingafgifter og kvantitative begrænsninger som om­handlet i tekstilaftalerne.
The real problem is that an individual case has highlighted a basic shortcoming in that the Turkish authorities manifestly failed to comply with signed agreements by not set ting up proper inspection arrangements and by not collecting sums due.
Den metode, der følges, er hovedsagelig, at der indsendes falske oprindelseserklærin­ger, især for tekstilprodukter fra de mindst udviklede lande, der omfattes af den gene­relle præferenceordning (Bangladesh ...), fra AVS­landene (Lesotho, Kenya ...) og de lande, med hvilke EF ikke har indgået tekstilaftaler, der omfatter kvantitative be­grænsninger og dobbelte kontrolsystemer.
There were several investigations relating to textile goods imported from the United Arab Emirates into the Community; they all concerned transshipments, notably of:
Kommissionens tjenestegrene måtte ved flere lejligheder gøre visse medlemsstater, virksomheder og erhvervsforeninger op­mærksom på det ansvar, der påhviler dem som klarerere eller hovedforpligtede.
This case highlighted the importance of implementing and monitoring the customs provisions in agreements with nonmember countries.
Flere virksomheder synes således ikke at være klar over dette og har derfor ikke taget hensyn hertil ved underskrivelsen af handelskontrakter og heller ikke ved dækningen af forsikringsrisikoen.
The case did not do anything to answer the question of other goods traded between Turkey and the Union.

Investigations in these cases were pursued in connection with missions undertaken in Pakistan and Kenya in 1994. '
Det første fandt sted i juni/juli og havde til formål at bane vejen for det egentlige kontrolbesøg, der blev aflagt i september/oktober.
Following the on-the-spot mission carried out at the time, two further Community missions' to Argentina, organized in conjunction with the authorities there in November 1993 and April-May 1994, established that more than 460 certificates of authenticity of Hilton beef presented in the Union in 1991 and 1992 were forged.
Formålet var med hjælp fra de lokale myndigheder at under søge, om de varecertifikater, der blev ud stedt i Kenya og fremlagt i EF ved import af tekstilvarer, var gyldige.
Germany is by far the largest importing country in the Union, taking 80% of all Hilton beef imported from Argentina, but false certificates were also presented in the United Kingdom, Spain and the Netherlands.
Efter undersøgelserne erkendte myndighederne, at over 200 certifikater vedrørende T-shirts, hvoraf de fleste aldrig havde berørt Kenyas jord, var ugyldige.
In all more than 4 500 tonnes of falsely certified beef was imported into the Union, with a loss of own resources amounting to about ECU 18 million.
Disse Tshirts var således importeret til EF fra De Forenede Arabiske Emirater.
An interim report was received in January 1994.
Andre pro dukter af denne art var ganske vist frem stillet i Kenya, men på grundlag af ikke-AVS-råvarer (virkningen for sidstnævnte tilfælde er finansiel).
The Norwegian authorities subsequently cancelled lists of certificates of origin issued because the products did not have originating status.
