Commission Implementing Decision
of 20 July 2011
correcting Decision 2010/152/EU excluding from European Union financing certain expenditure incurred by the Member States under the Guarantee Section of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF), under the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (EAGF) and under the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1258/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the financing of the common agricultural policy(1), and in particular Article 7(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 of 21 June 2005 on the financing of the common agricultural policy(2), and in particular Article 31 thereof,
Having consulted the Committee on the Agricultural Funds,
Whereas:
(1) By Decision 2010/152/EU(3) the Commission excluded from European Union financing a total amount of PLN 279 794 442,15 and EUR 25 583 996,81 including in particular PLN 180 448 032,62 incurred by Poland for area-related rural development measures in the 2000-2006 programming period. However, the Annex to that Decision erroneously identified that amount to be charged to budget item 6701‘Clearance of EAGF accounts — assigned revenue’. Rather, as that correction concerned the expenditures under the Temporary Rural Development Instrument (TRDI), it should have been charged to budget item 6500‘Financial corrections in connection with the Structural Funds and Cohesion Fund and the European Fisheries Fund’.
(2) Pursuant to Article 11(4) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 885/2006 of 21 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 as regards the accreditation of paying agencies and other bodies and the clearance of the accounts of the EAGF and of the EAFRD(4), sums excluded from Union financing are deducted from the monthly payments relating to the expenditure effected in the second month following the Decision with respect to the EAGF. Therefore, the amount of PLN 180 448 032,62 was converted into euro applying the exchange rate of 29 April 2010, amounting to EUR 46 087 919,86.
(3) Pursuant to Article 5 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 27/2004 of 5 January 2004 laying down transitional detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999 as regards the financing by the EAGGF Guarantee Section of rural development measures in the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia(5), Commission decisions concerning rural development in Poland are to be expressed in euro. The corrections concerning TRDI which are expressed in the national currencies in the decisions should therefore be converted into euro. The conversion is made using the average exchange rate of the financial year of TRDI expenditure subject to correction. Following this methodology the amount of PLN 180 448 032,62 being a correction for TRDI expenses in the financial years 2005, 2006 and 2007 amounts to EUR 46 430 682,69.
(4) Decision 2010/152/EU should therefore be corrected accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
All entries in the Annex to Decision 2010/152/EU concerning Poland shall be replaced by those set out in the Annex to this Decision.
Article 2
For bookkeeping reasons, Poland shall declare the amount of EUR 46 087 919,86 for reimbursement on budget item 6701‘Clearance of EAGF accounts — assigned revenue’.
A recovery order with the amount of EUR 46 430 682,69 shall be issued by the Commission in order to execute the financial corrections concerning TRDI from budget item 6500‘Financial corrections in connection with the Structural Funds and Cohesion Fund and the European Fisheries Fund’.
Article 3
This Decision is addressed to the Republic of Poland.
