COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1250/2009
of 30 November 2009
amending Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 establishing common rules for direct support schemes for farmers under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 37 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 (1) establishes the mechanism of financial discipline whereby the level of direct support is adjusted when the forecasts indicate that the subceiling for market related expenditure and direct payments, under heading 2 of Annex I to the Interinstitutional Agreement between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (2), with a safety margin of EUR 300 000 000, is exceeded in a given financial year. |
(2) |
The abovementioned subceiling covers expenditure for direct payments before all transfers to rural development and before modulation. The text of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 should therefore be clarified so as to provide that the expenditure to be compared with the subceiling also includes possible transfers to the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) referred to in Article 136 of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, as well as possible transfers to EAFRD in the wine sector resulting from the application of Article 190a(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (3). |
(3) |
Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 of 29 September 2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers (4) authorised the Commission to adopt, inter alia, a provision to deal with the situation where the allocation of payment entitlements to a farmer would lead to a windfall profit for the farmer. Such a situation can also occur under Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 and should therefore be addressed. |
(4) |
Under Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 some Member States opted for the implementation of the single payment scheme and for the partial implementation of the single payment scheme in the sheepmeat and goatmeat sector as well as in the beef and veal sector at regional level. Regional considerations may also be relevant for the decisions to be taken under Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 to continue or to adjust the partial implementation of the single payment scheme in those sectors. It should therefore be made possible for those decisions to be taken at regional level. |
(5) |
Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 provides for the allocation of payment entitlements where a farmer in a sector concerned does not hold any payment entitlement. However, this provision does not adequately deal with the situation where that farmer nevertheless declares a number of leased payment entitlements in the first year of integration of the coupled support into the single payment scheme. In that case the farmer would not be able or only partly be able to activate the new payment entitlements allocated since all or some of the farmer’s eligible hectares would already have been used to activate the leased entitlements. It is therefore appropriate to provide a temporary derogation according to which the farmer concerned should be allocated payment entitlements for the hectares declared which correspond to those hectares over and above the hectares declared to activate the leased payment entitlements and/or the payment entitlements... |
