COUNCIL REGULATION (EU, Euratom) 2021/768
of 30 April 2021
laying down implementing measures for the system of own resources of the European Union and repealing Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 608/2014
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the fourth paragraph of Article 311 thereof,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, and in particular Article 106a thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 of 14 December 2020 on the system of own resources of the European Union and repealing Decision 2014/335/EU, Euratom (1), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
Having regard to the consent of the European Parliament (2),
Acting in accordance with a special legislative procedure,
Whereas:
(1) |
The procedure for calculating and budgeting the annual budgetary balance, the provisions and arrangements necessary for controlling and supervising the collection of own resources and any relevant reporting requirements are important components of the system of own resources of the Union which complement in a more detailed manner the provisions of Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053. |
(2) |
For reasons of consistency, the provisions concerning inspections of Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89 (3) should be included in this Regulation. |
(3) |
In order to ensure a balanced budget, any surplus of the Union’s revenue over total actual expenditure during a financial year should be carried over to the following financial year. Therefore, the balance to be carried over should be defined. |
(4) |
Member States should conduct checks and enquiries relating to calculating, establishing and making available the Union’s own resources. In order to facilitate the application of the financial rules relating to own resources, it is necessary to ensure that the Member States and the Commission collaborate. |
(5) |
The transparency of the system of own resources of the Union should be ensured by the provision of adequate information to the European Parliament and to the Council. Therefore, the Member States should put at the disposal of the Commission the documents and information necessary for the Commission to exercise the power conferred upon it as regards the Union’s own resources and, where necessary, send those documents and information to the Commission. |
(6) |
For the sake of consistency and clarity, provisions should be laid down covering the powers and obligations of officials, other servants and seconded national experts who take part in inspections in relation to the Union’s own resources. In particular, the rules which all Union officials, other servants and seconded national experts have to observe with regard to professional confidentiality and the protection of personal data should be laid down. It is necessary to specify the status of seconded national experts and the possibility for the Member State concerned to object to the presence of officials of other Member States at an inspection. |
(7) |
The arrangements whereby the Member States responsible for collecting own resources report to the Commission should make it possible for the Commission to monitor the actions of Member States to recover own resources, in particular in cases of fraud and irregularities. |
(8) |
In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of this Regulation, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission as regards establishing detailed rules on the reporting of fraud and irregularities... |
