(4) The Community contribution to the Trust Fund should therefore be increased by EUR 3 500 000 from EUR 4 500 000 to EUR 8 000 000 for a period of four years.
(5) Provision should be made for the adoption of amendments to the Implementing Agreement necessary to take account of adjustment to this amount.
(6) It is necessary for this Decision to have retroactive effect as from 1 January 2005 to enable the Community to comply with its obligations for a period of four years from that date.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 933/94 (3) of 27 April 1994, as amended by Regulation (EC) No 491/95, has laid down the active substances of plant protection products and designated the rapporteur Member States for the implementation of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92;
Whereas propham was one of the 90 active substances covered by the first stage of the work programme provided for in Article 8 (2) of Council Directive 91/414/EEC (4);

COMMISSION DECISION of 23 December 1992 on the regionalization plan submitted by France under Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 (Only the French text is authentic)
(93/120/EEC)THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 of 30 June 1992 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops (1), and in particular Article 16 thereof,
Whereas on 3 August 1992 France forwarded a 'framework' regionalization plan to the Commission pursuant to Article 3 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92;
Whereas an examination of the abovementioned plan shows that oilseeds are treated separately from other arable crops as a result of a specific regionalization approach carrying over the previous system;
Whereas cereals yields are calculated by means of a special equalization formula differing from that for determining compensatory payments;
Whereas, however, treating oilseeds in the same way as other arable crops could lead to difficulties for oilseeds when applied too inflexibly; whereas the unmodulated application of the criteria laid down for calculating the cereal yields in Regulation  (EEC) No 1765/92 is likely to cause considerable difficulties as regards the income of producers in French regions with lower yields; whereas provision should therefore be made for a transitional period to facilitate the switchover from the system  previously applicable to oilseeds to that provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 and to permit the necessary adjustments in regions with lower yields;
Whereas the other aspects of the plan call for no special remarks at this stage;
Whereas the joint Management Committee for Cereals, Oils and Fats and Dried Fodder has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its Chairman,
1. As a temporary measure, for the 1993/94 and 1994/95 marketing years France may apply the following points of the 'framework' regionalization plan which it submitted on 3 August 1992:
(a) different cereal yields for calculating the compensatory aids for oilseeds and cereals;
(b) the special equalization formula for calculating yields.
2. For the 1995/96 marketing year, before 30 April 1993 the French Republic shall submit a plan revising the points set out in paragraph 1 in accordance with Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92.
The Community shall not be liable financially should expenditure exceed that arising from the application of this Decision.
This Decision shall be addressed to the French Republic.
