The proposal covers two components of the reimbursement of mission expenses: hotel ceilings and daily subsistence allowances.
The proposal adapts hotel ceilings on the basis of the expenditure observed in 2004-05. Using this methodology, 90% of missions could be carried out without derogations (28% of overnight stays in 2005 involved derogations). The planned adjustment of accommodation ceilings has no annual budgetary impact, as the proposed ceilings are based on expenditure actually incurred. The reduction in the number of derogations will also cut administration.
As regards the daily subsistence allowances, the proposal redefines the daily expenses incurred by staff on mission in Belgium, and applies to that amount the correction coefficients excluding accommodation to determine the daily subsistence allowances to be paid in the other Member States. The daily subsistence allowance for Belgium was fixed at EUR 84 in 1998. The proposed Regulation increases this allowance to EUR 92.
The proposed adjustment of the daily subsistence allowances involves an average 24% increase in these costs or an increase of EUR 3.9 million per year for all the institutions, of which EUR 2.5 million for the Commission (EUR 220 000 of which for the external services).
More detailed information is given in the report from the Commission to the Council attached to this proposal.
