Commission Decision
of 31 January 2012
adjusting the thresholds referred to in Articles 157(b) and 158(1) of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2342/2002 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of the Financial Regulation
(2012/56/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2342/2002 of 23 December 2002 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities(1), and in particular Article 271 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EU) No 1251/2011(2) adjusted the thresholds applicable to public procurement contracts pursuant to Directive 2004/18/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 March 2004 on the coordination of procedures for the award of public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts(3).
(2) For reasons of consistency, it is therefore necessary to establish the thresholds referred to in Articles 157(b) and 158(1) of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2342/2002.
(3) Since the thresholds adjusted by Regulation (EU) No 1251/2011 are applicable from 1 January 2012, this Decision should also apply from 1 January 2012. This Decision should therefore enter into force on the date following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
