Calculation of the uniform call rate for VAT own resources (Article 2(4) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

Uniform rate (%) = maximum call rate – frozen rate |

A.The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2008. |

B.Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom): |

(1)calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden: |

In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL), Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution. |

Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany: |

Germany's theoretical VAT contribution = (Germany's capped VAT base / (EU capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)) × 1/4 × United Kingdom correction |

Example: Germany |

Germany's theoretical VAT contribution = 10693785000 / (57958198000 – 9844979000) × 1/4 × 6534458982 = 363091999 |

(2)calculation of the frozen rate: |

Frozen rate = (UK correction – theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)) / (EU capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D + NL + A + S)) |

Frozen rate = (6534458982 – (363091999 + 97414408 + 42227593 + 49008050)) / (57958198000 – (9844979000 + 10693785000 + 2869049000 + 1243687000 + 1443385000)) |

Frozen rate = 0,187761923331507 % |

Uniform rate |

0,5 % – 0,187761923331507 % = 0,312238076668493 % |

FISHERIES AND MARITIME AFFAIRS

Overall objectives

This policy area includes all the activities covered by the common fisheries policy (CFP) which comes under the exclusive competence of the Community. It concerns all fisheries activities as well as the processing and marketing of these products.

It also ensures that the relevant provisions of Community law are rightly applied in the fisheries sector.

The policy area covers the following operational activities: common organisation of the fisheries market, relations and agreements with third countries and international organisations, fisheries governance, fisheries research, structural measures for fisheries through the European Fisheries Fund (EFF), conservation of fisheries resources, and control and enforcement. Finally, a new activity relates to maritime affairs, with a preparatory action for launching implementation of the European maritime policy.

Sixty per cent of appropriations are devoted to the EFF. However, the EFF operations are mainly implemented by the Member States as part of shared management.

The financial contribution resulting from old fisheries agreements generally includes a part whose use is left entirely to the discretion of the relevant governments and a contribution to measures designed to ensure sustainable management of the third country's fishery resources. For new partnership agreements a global envelope is allocated. The amounts for 2008 concerning fisheries agreements in force can be broken down as follows (commitments): financial contribution EUR 4769000, support to the fisheries policy and other targeted measures EUR 3114000, and global envelopes for recent partnership agreements EUR 146490000. In the case of Mauritania, the current protocol in force (2006-2008) can be renewed by tacit renewal for an additional period of two years. Should this not be the case, the corresponding amount for 2008 will be transferred to the reserve line.

Remarks

This appropriation is intended to cover commitments made in previous years in the context of the preceding programme of Community action in the field of public health.

The aim of this programme was to contribute to attaining a high level of health protection by directing action towards improving public health, preventing human illness and diseases, and obviating sources of danger to health.

Its three main priorities were:

- to improve information and knowledge for the development of public health and the strengthening and maintenance of effective health interventions and efficient health systems, by developing and operating a well-structured and comprehensive system for collecting, analysing, evaluating and imparting health information and knowledge to competent authorities, health professionals and the public, and by undertaking assessments of and reporting on the health situation and health-related policies, systems and measures,

- to enhance the ability to respond rapidly and in a coordinated way to threats to health by developing, strengthening and assisting the operation and interlinking of surveillance, early warning and rapid reaction mechanisms covering health hazards,

- to address health determinants through health promotion and disease-prevention measures, by supporting and developing broad health-promotion activities and disease-prevention actions and specific risk-reduction and elimination instruments.

To the appropriations entered in this item must be added the contributions from the EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, and in particular Article 82 thereof and Protocol 32 thereto. By way of information, these amounts derive from contributions from the EFTA States entered against Article 6 3 0 of the statement of revenue, which constitute assigned revenue in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation; they give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation according to Annex V to this part of the statement of expenditure of this section, which forms an integral part of the general budget.

Any revenue from the contribution from candidate countries for participation in Community programmes, entered in Item 6 0 3 1 of the statement of revenue, may lead to additional appropriations being made available in accordance with Article 18(1)(d) of the Financial Regulation.

Legal basis

Remarks

The purpose of development cooperation under this heading is primarily its contribution to achieving the millennium development goals (MDGs), particularly goal 1 to halve the proportion of people whose income is less than USD 1 per day and to halve the proportion of people who suffer from hunger before 2015. The MDGs give an overall benchmark for this.

Moreover, also in accordance with that Commission Declaration, the Commission will endeavour to ensure that a benchmark of 20 % of its allocated assistance under country programmes covered by the DCI will be dedicated, by 2009, to basic and secondary education and basic health, through project, programme or budget support linked to these sectors, taking an average across all geographical areas and recognising that a degree of flexibility must be the norm, such as in cases where exceptional assistance is involved.

Before July each year, the Commission will provide to the European Parliament and the Council an annual report on the Community's development policy and external assistance, meeting all the Commission's regulatory reporting requirements and giving full details of development cooperation, especially the extent to which it has met its objectives. In particular, the report will:

- present the strategic objectives of the Union's development policy and its contribution towards the previous 35 % benchmark for social infrastructure and services and the current 20 % benchmark for basic and secondary education and for basic health, and assess the efficiency and effectiveness of cooperation, including progress made in coordinating aid, in improving the coherence of the Union's strategy in its external actions, and in integrating the cross-cutting issues such as gender, human rights, conflict prevention and the environment,

- present the main results of evaluation and monitoring reports, as an indication of the extent to which its actions are achieving their objectives,

- summarise the key features and events of cooperation in each geographical region, and

- provide financial information on the support given to each sector, in accordance with OECD reporting criteria.

Remarks

The purpose of the transition facility is to continue to assist the new Member States in their efforts to strengthen their administrative capacity to implement Community legislation and to foster the exchange of best practice.

The transition facility for the 10 new Member States which joined the EU on 1 May 2004 ran from 2004 to 2006. Implementation will continue until at least 2009. Another transition facility for Bulgaria and Romania is provided for in the Act of Accession (2005), lasting one year following their accession to the EU. Implementation is expected to continue until 2010.

The transition facility is to continue institution-building activities according to the same principles as funded by Phare during the pre-accession period. Therefore, the structures and methods established under Phare for programming and decision-making will continue to apply for the transition facility, with some minor adjustments.

The purpose of the transition facility is to continue to provide assistance to new Member States in areas where their administrative and institutional capacity is still not able to deliver on a par with the other Member States. The transition facility should provide the tools to enable them to react rapidly and precisely to weaknesses identified, primarily where safeguard clauses have been, or risk being, invoked.

The assistance shall address the continued need for strengthening institutional capacity in certain areas through actions which cannot be financed by the Structural Funds, in particular in the following areas:

- justice and home affairs (strengthening of the judicial system, external border controls, anti-corruption strategy, strengthening of law enforcement capacities),

- financial control,

- protection of the Communities' financial interests and the fight against fraud,

- the internal market, including the customs union,

- the environment,

- veterinary services and administrative capacity-building related to food safety,

- administrative and control structures for agriculture and rural development, including the integrated administration and control system (IACS),

- nuclear safety (strengthening the effectiveness and competence of nuclear safety authorities and their technical support organisations as well as public radioactive waste management agencies),

- statistics,

- the strengthening of public administration according to needs identified in the Commission's comprehensive monitoring report which are not covered by the Structural Funds.

The issues addressed by the transition facility have been identified in the comprehensive monitoring report. Priority should be given to areas where safeguard clauses have been, or risk being, invoked to secure rapid remedial action.

Part of each allocation may be assigned to multi-beneficiary programmes, including audit and evaluation actions. The remainder is distributed between the new Member States.

Legal basis

Tasks resulting from the specific powers assigned directly to the Commission by Article 34 of the Act of Accession of 16 April 2003 and Article 31 of Title III of the Act of Accession of 25 April 2005 (part of the Treaty concerning the accession of the Republic of Bulgaria and Romania to the European Union).

Remarks

The appropriations in the title "Reserves" are intended for two circumstances only: (a) where No basic act exists for the action concerned when the budget is established; and (b) where there are serious grounds for doubting the adequacy of the appropriations or the possibility of implementing, under conditions consistent with sound financial management, the appropriations entered in the headings concerned. The appropriations entered in this item may be used only after transfer in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 24 of the Financial Regulation.

The breakdown is as follows (commitments, payments):

Legal basis

Emergency aid reserve

Appropriations 2008 | Amending budget No 9 | New amount |

Commitments | Payments | Commitments | Payments |

239218000 | 240000000 | | 479218000 | 239218000 |

Remarks

The aim of this reserve, in accordance with Point 25 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management, is to allow a rapid response to the specific aid requirements of third countries following events which could not be foreseen when the budget was established, first and foremost for humanitarian operations, but also for civil crisis management and protection where circumstances so require. The annual amount of the Reserve is fixed at EUR 221000000 for the duration of the financial framework, in constant prices. This amount has as an exception been raised to EUR 479218000 for 2008 at current prices.

The Reserve is entered in the general budget of the European Union as a provision. The corresponding commitment appropriations will be entered in the budget, if necessary, over and above the ceilings.

When the Commission considers that the Reserve needs to be called on, it will present to the two arms of the budgetary authority a proposal for a transfer from the Reserve to the relevant budget lines.

At the same time as it presents its proposal for a transfer, the Commission will initiate a trialogue procedure, if necessary in a simplified form, to secure agreement of the two arms of the budgetary authority on the need to use the Reserve and on the amount required.

Reference acts

Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (OJ C 139, 14.6.2006, p. 1), as amended by Decision 2008/29/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 6, 10.1.2008, p. 7).

[1] AB No 1 to No 9/2008 included.

[2] The figures in this column correspond to those in the 2007 budget (OJ L 77, 16.3.2007, p. 1) plus Amending Budgets No 1 to No 7/2007.

[3] The third paragraph of Article 268 of the Treaty establishing the European Community reads: "The revenue and expenditure shown in the budget shall be in balance".

[4] AB No 1 to No 9/2008 included.

[5] The figures in this column correspond to those in the 2007 budget (OJ L 77, 16.3.2007, p. 1) plus Amending Budgets No 1 to No 7/2007.

[6] The own resources for the 2008 budget are determined on the basis of the budget forecasts adopted at the 142nd meeting of the Advisory Committee on Own Resources on 7 May 2008.

[7] The third paragraph of Article 268 of the Treaty establishing the European Community reads: "The revenue and expenditure shown in the budget shall be in balance".

[8] The base to be used does not exceed 50 % of GNI.

[9] Calculation of rate: (73290311931) / (125563242000) = 0,583692414783301 %.

[10] Rounded percentages.

[11] The amount of pre-accession expenditure (PAE) corresponds to payments made to the 10 new Member States (which joined the EU on 1 May 2004) under 2003 appropriations, as adjusted by applying the EU-25 GDP deflator for 2004, 2005 and 2006, as well as payments made to Bulgaria and Romania under 2006 appropriations. This amount is deducted from total allocated expenditure to ensure that expenditure which is unabated before enlargement remains so after enlargement.

[12] The "UK advantage" corresponds to the effects arising for the United Kingdom from the changeover to capped VAT and the introduction of the GNP/GNI-based own resource.

[13] These windfall gains correspond to the net gains of the United Kingdom resulting from the increase — from 10 to 25 % as of 1 January 2001 — in the percentage of traditional own resources retained by Member States to cover the collection costs of traditional own resources (TOR).

[14] Rounded percentages.

[15] The amount of pre-accession expenditure (PAE) corresponds to payments made to the 10 new Member States, which joined the EU on 1 May 2004, under 2003 appropriations. This amount is deducted from total allocated expenditure to ensure that expenditure which is unabated before enlargement remains so after enlargement.

[16] The "UK advantage" corresponds to the effects arising for the United Kingdom from the changeover to capped VAT and the introduction of the GNP/GNI-based own resource.

[17] These windfall gains correspond to the net gains of the United Kingdom resulting from the increase — from 10 to 25 % as of 1 January 2001 — in the percentage of traditional own resources retained by Member States to cover the collection costs of traditional own resources (TOR).Note: The difference of – ? 122514360 between the definitive amount of the 2004 UK correction (? 5547862430, as calculated above) and the previously budgeted amount of the 2004 UK correction (? 5425348070, entered in the AB 3/2006) is financed in chapter 3 5 of the AB 5/2008. This impact is the so-called 'direct effect' of the UK correction. A supplementary adjustment, to take into account the so-called 'indirect effect' of the UK correction on the uniform rate of call of the VAT-based own resource, is also financed in chapter 3 5 of the AB 5/2008. This 'indirect effect' corresponds to an increase of ? 20611312 for the United Kingdom, so that the total amount entered in chapter 3 5 of the AB 5/2008 is a payment of ? 101903048 to the United Kingdom (= – ? 122514360 + ? 20611312).

[18] p.m. (own resources + other revenue = total revenue = total expenditure); (108323368205 + 7447914040 = 115771282245 = 115771282245).

[19] Total own resources as percentage of GNI: (108323368205) / (12556324200000) = 0,86 %; own resources ceiling as percentage of GNI: 1,24 %.

[20] With the exception of Switzerland.

[21] An appropriation of EUR 38102000 is entered in Item 40 02 41 02.

[22] An appropriation of EUR –20682000 is entered in Item 40 02 41 02.

[23] An appropriation of EUR 17420000 is entered in Item 40 02 41 02.

[24] An appropriation of EUR 38102000 is entered in Item 40 02 41 02.

[25] An appropriation of EUR 17420000 is entered in Item 40 02 41 02.

[26] An appropriation of EUR 240000 is entered in Item 40 02 41 01.
