Recitals 2 and 24 in the preamble to Regulation No 1782/2003 state:
V drugi in �tiriindvajseti uvodni izjavi Uredbe �t. 1782/2003 je določeno:
The full payment of direct aid should be linked to compliance with rules relating to agricultural land, agricultural production and activity.
Celotno plačilo neposredne pomoči mora biti pogojeno z izpolnitvijo pravil v zvezi s kmetijskim zemlji�čem, kmetijsko proizvodnjo in dejavnostjo.
Those rules should serve to incorporate in the common market organisations basic standards for the environment, food safety, animal health and welfare and good agricultural and environmental condition.
Namen teh pravil je vključiti v skupne ureditve trgov osnovne standarde za okolje, varno hrano, zdravje in dobro počutje živali ter dobre kmetijske in okoljske pogoje.
If those basic standards are not met, Member States should withdraw direct aid in whole or in part on the basis of criteria which are proportionate, objective and graduated.
Če ti osnovni standardi niso izpolnjeni, morajo države članice v celoti ali delno odvzeti neposredno pomoč na podlagi sorazmernih, objektivnih in stopnjevitih meril.
Such withdrawal should be without prejudice to sanctions laid down now or in the future under other provisions of Community or national law.
Tak odvzem ne vpliva na sankcije, ki so določene ali ki bodo določene v drugih določbah zakonodaje Skupnosti ali nacionalne zakonodaje.
Enhancing the competitiveness of Community agriculture and promoting food quality and environment standards necessarily entail a drop in institutional prices for agricultural products and an increase in the costs of production for agricultural holdings in the Community.
Povečevanje konkurenčnosti kmetijstva Skupnosti in spodbujanje kakovosti hrane in okoljskih standardov imata za nujno posledico znižanje institucionalnih cen za kmetijske proizvode in povi�anje stro�kov proizvodnje za kmetijska gospodarstva v Skupnosti.
To achieve those aims and promote more market-oriented and sustainable agriculture, it is necessary to complete the shift from production support to producer support by introducing a system of decoupled income support for each farm. While decou-
Da bi dosegli te cilje in spodbudili bolj tržno usmerjeno in trajnostno kmetijstvo, je treba dokončati prehod iz podpore za proizvodnjo na podporo za proizvajalce z uvedbo sistema
JAGER pling will leave the actual amounts paid to farmers unchanged, it will significantly increase the effectiveness of the income aid.
Čeprav bodo zaradi take nevezanosti dejanski zneski, plačani kmetom, ostali nespremenjeni, se bo znatno povečala učinkovitost dohodkovne pomoči.
It is, therefore, appropriate to make the single farm payment conditional upon crosscompliance with environmental, food safety, animal health and welfare, as well as the maintenance of the farm in good agricultural and environmental condition.’
Zato je primerno, da je enotno plačilo na kmetijo pogojeno z upo�tevanjem navzkrižne skladnosti okolja, varne hrane, zdravja in dobrega počutja živali ter [z] ohranitv[ijo] kmetij in dobr[imi] kmetijsk[imi] in okoljsk[imi] pogoj[i].“
According to Article 1 of Regulation No 1782/2003:
V členu 1 Uredbe �t. 1782/2003 je določeno:
‘This Regulation establishes:
„Ta uredba določa:
— common rules on direct payments under income support schemes in the framework of the common agricultural policy which are financed by the “Guarantee” Section of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) [listed in Annex I], except those provided for under [Council] Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999 [of 17 May 1999 on support for rural development from the EAGGF and amending and repealing certain Regulations (OJ 1999 L 160, p. 80)],
– skupna pravila o neposrednih plačilih iz shem dohodkovne podpore v okviru skupne kmetijske politike, ki se financirajo iz Jamstvenega oddelka Evropskega kmetijskega usmerjevalnega in jamstvenega sklada (EKUJS), na�tetih v Prilogi I, razen tistih, ki so predvidena z Uredbo [Sveta] (ES) �t. 1257/1999 [z dne 17. maja 1999 o podpori za razvoj podeželja iz EKUJS ter o spremembi in razveljavitvi določenih uredb (UL L 160, str. 80)],
— an income support for farmers (hereinafter referred to as the “single payment scheme”);
– dohodkovno podporo za kmete (v nadaljnjem besedilu: ‚shema enotnega plačila‘),
— support schemes for farmers producing … beef and veal …’
– sheme podpore za kmete, ki proizvajajo […] goveje in telečje meso […]“
‘Direct payment’ is defined in Article 2(d) of Regulation No 1782/2003 as referring to ‘a payment granted directly to farmers under an income support scheme listed in Annex I’ of that regulation.
Pojem „neposredno plačilo“ je v členu 2(d) Uredbe �t. 1782/2003 opredeljeno kot „plačilo, dodeljeno neposredno kmetom v okviru ene od shem dohodkovne podpore iz Priloge I“ k tej uredbi.
That Annex mentions, inter alia, the suckler cow premium in the beef and veal sector.
V tej prilogi je med drugim v sektorju goveda določena premija za kravo dojiljo.
The common rules on direct payments appear under Title II of Regulation No 1782/2003, entitled ‘General Provisions’, Chapter 1 of which, itself entitled ‘Crosscompliance’, contains Articles 3 to 9 of that regulation.
Skupna pravila na področju neposrednih plačil so pod naslovom II „Splo�ne določbe“ Uredbe �t. 1782/2003, katerega poglavje 1 z naslovom „Navzkrižna skladnost“ vsebuje člene od 3 do 9 te uredbe.
Article 3(1) of the regulation provides as follows:
V členu 3(1) navedene uredbe je določeno:
‘A farmer receiving direct payments shall respect the statutory management requirements referred to in Annex III, according to the timetable fixed in that annex, and the good agricultural and environmental condition established under Article 5.’
„Kmet, ki prejema neposredna plačila, mora spo�tovati predpisane zahteve ravnanja iz Priloge III v skladu s časovnim razporedom, določenim v navedeni prilogi, ter dobre kmetijske in okoljske pogoje, določene v členu 5.“
According to Article 4(1) of Regulation No 1782/2003, the statutory management requirements referred to in Annex III concern public, animal and plant health, the environment and animal welfare.
V skladu s členom 4(1) Uredbe �t. 1782/2003 se predpisane zahteve ravnanja iz Priloge III nana�ajo na javno zdravje, zdravje živali in rastlin, okolje in dobro počutje živali.
Among those statutory requirements, contained in 18 directives and regulations, Section A.8 of that annex mentions Articles 4 and 7 of Regulation No 1760/2000.
Med temi predpisanimi zahtevami, ki so določene v 18 direktivah in uredbah, sta v točki A(8) navedene priloge omenjena člena 4 in 7 Uredbe �t. 1760/2000.
Article 6(1) of Regulation No 1782/2003 provides:
V členu 6(1) Uredbe �t. 1782/2003 je določeno:
‘Where the statutory management requirements or good agricultural and environmental condition are not complied with, as a result of an action or omission directly attributable to the individual farmer, the total amount of direct payments to be granted in the calendar year in which the noncompliance occurs, and after application of Articles 10 and 11, shall be reduced or cancelled …’
„Če kot posledica ukrepanja ali neukrepanja, ki se lahko pripi�e neposredno posameznemu kmetu, niso izpolnjene predpisane zahteve ravnanja ali dobri kmetijski in okoljski pogoji, se celotni znesek neposrednih plačil, ki naj bi se odobril v koledarskem letu, v katerem je pri�lo do neizpolnitve, po uporabi členov 10 in 11, zmanj�a ali prekliče […]“
According to Article 7(1) of that regulation, detailed rules for the reductions and exclusions are to be laid down by taking into account, in particular, the severity, extent, permanence and repetition of the noncompliance found.
V skladu s členom 7(1) te uredbe se podrobna pravila za znižanja ali izključitve določijo ob upo�tevanju zlasti resnosti, obsega, trajnosti in ponavljanja ugotovljene neskladnosti.
Article 10(1) of Chapter 2, headed ‘Modulation and financial discipline’, of Title II of that regulation provides that all the amounts of direct payments to be granted in a given calendar year to a farmer in a given Member State are to be reduced for each year until 2012 by the percentages determined in that provision.
V členu 10(1) navedene uredbe, ki je v poglavju 2 z naslovom „Modulacija in finančna disciplina“ naslova II te uredbe, je določeno, da se vsi zneski neposrednih plačil, ki naj bi bili odobreni v danem koledarskem letu kmetu v dani državi članici, znižajo za vsako leto do leta 2012 za odstotke, določene v tej določbi.
Pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation No 1782/2003, also contained in Chapter 2, those amounts may, each year, be subject to an adjustment decided by the Council of the European Union for reasons of financial discipline.
Na podlagi člena 11 Uredbe �t. 1782/2003, ki je prav tako v poglavju 2, se lahko ti zneski zaradi finančne discipline vsako leto prilagodijo, o čemer odloči Svet Evropske unije.
Title III of that regulation, entitled ‘Single payment scheme’, contains in Chapters 1 to 4 thereof, the basic rules applicable to that system of income support for farmers which is ‘decoupled’ from production.
Pod naslovom III „Shema enotnega plačila“ te uredbe so v poglavjih od 1 do 4 vsebovana osnovna pravila, ki se uporabljajo za ta sistem dohodkovne podpore kmetom, ki „ni vezana“ na proizvodnjo.
It follows from Articles 33(1)(a), 38 and 41 of that regulation that farmers who have benefited, in a reference period comprising the
Iz členov 33(1)(a), 37(1), 38 in 41 te uredbe izhaja,

2008 – ZADEVA C-420/06 da imajo kmetje, ki jim je bilo odobreno plačilo v referenčnem obdobju, ki zajema koledarska leta od 2000 do 2002, v okviru vsaj ene od shem podpore iz Priloge VI k tej uredbi, med katerimi je premija za kravo dojiljo, pravico do podpore, ki se izračuna na podlagi referenčnega zneska, ki se za vsakega kmeta pridobi glede na letno povprečje tega obdobja na podlagi vseh plačil, odobrenih na podlagi teh shem.
The sum of the reference amounts is not to be higher than the national ceiling fixed for each Member State in Annex VIII to the regulation.
Se�tevek referenčnih zneskov ne sme presegati nacionalne zgornje meje, določene za vsako državo članico v Prilogi VIII k navedeni uredbi.
Chapter 5 of Title III, entitled ‘Regional and optional implementation’, permits Member States to decide, by 1 August 2004 at the latest, to apply the single payment scheme provided for in Chapters 1 to 4 of Title III, in particular, at regional level or partially.
Določbe poglavja 5 navedenega naslova III „Regionalno in neobvezno izvajanje“ državam članicam omogočajo, da se do 1. avgusta 2004 odločijo za uporabo sheme enotnega plačila, predvidene v poglavjih od 1 do 4 tega naslova III, in sicer na regionalni ravni ali delno.
Section 1 of Chapter 5 of Title III, entitled ‘Regional implementation’, is composed of Articles 58 to 63.
V oddelku 1 navedenega poglavja 5 z naslovom „Regionalno izvajanje“ so členi od 58 do 63.
Pursuant to Articles 58(1) and (3) and 59(1) and (2) of Regulation No 1782/2003, a Member State may regionalise the single payment scheme by dividing its national ceiling, not individually among the farmers of that State on the basis of their respective reference amounts, but among the different regions which make up its territory, and by distributing the amount of each regional ceiling thus obtained at a standard rate between all the farmers of the region concerned, each of them receiving entitlements the unit value of which is calculated by dividing that regional ceiling by the number of eligible hectares established at regional level.
Na podlagi členov 58(1) in (3) ter 59(1) in (2) Uredbe �t. 1782/2003 lahko država članica regionalizira shemo enotnega plačila, tako da razdeli nacionalno zgornjo mejo ne individualno med kmete te države na podlagi njihovih ustreznih referenčnih zneskov, temveč med različne regije na njenem ozemlju in tako, da tako dobljeni znesek vsake regionalne zgornje meje pav�alno razdeli vsem kmetom zadevne regije, pri čemer kmetje prejmejo pravice, katerih znesek na enoto se izračuna tako, da se regionalna zgornja meja deli s �tevilom hektarjev, za katere so upravičeni do podpore, določene na regionalni ravni.
Section 2 of Chapter 5, entitled ‘Partial implementation’, is composed of Articles 64 to 69.
V oddelku 2 tega poglavja 5 z naslovom „Delno izvajanje“ so členi od 64 do 69.
Pursuant to the provisions of that section, the Member States may maintain at national or regional level, under a ‘recoupling’ system, certain direct payments linked to production.
Na podlagi določb tega oddelka lahko države članice na nacionalni ali regionalni ravni v okviru sistema, imenovanega „vezava“, ohranijo določena neposredna plačila, ki se navezujejo na proizvodnjo.
Article 68 of Regulation No 1782/2003, headed ‘Beef and veal payments’, provides, in that connection, in the first and third subparagraphs of paragraph (2)(a)(i) thereof, that Member States may continue to pay the suckler cow premium under conditions provided for in Chapter 12 of Title IV of that regulation.
V členu 68 Uredbe �t. 1782/2003, naslovljenem „Plačila za govedo in teleta“, je glede tega v odstavku 2(a)(i), prvi in tretji pododstavek, določeno, da lahko države članice nadaljujejo plačevanje premij za krave dojilje pod pogoji iz poglavja 12 naslova IV te uredbe.
Title IV, entitled ‘Other aid schemes’, contains provisions relating to those last mentioned systems of ‘decoupled’ direct payments.
V navedenem naslovu IV „Druge sheme pomoči“ so določbe, ki se uporabljajo za zadnje sheme neposrednih „nevezanih“ plačil.
