THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008, and in particular Article 16(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 367/2014 sets the net balance available for European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (EAGF) expenditure, as well as the amounts available for the budget years 2014 to 2020 for the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), pursuant to Article 10c(2) and Articles 136, 136a and 136b of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 and to Article 7(2), Article 14 and Article 66(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
(2) In accordance with the fourth subparagraph of Article 14(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, France, Lithuania and the Netherlands notified the Commission by 1 August 2017 of their decision to review, for the calendar years 2018 and 2019, their previous decision to transfer a certain percentage of their annual national ceilings of direct payments to rural development programming financed under the EAFRD as specified in Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The relevant national ceilings were adapted through Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/162.
(3) In accordance with Article 3(1) of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013, the sub-ceiling for market related expenditure and direct payments of the multiannual financial framework set out in Annex I to that Regulation is to be adjusted under the technical adjustment provided for in Article 6(1) of that Regulation following the transfers between the EAFRD and direct payments.
(4) As a result of those changes, it is necessary to adjust the net balance available for EAGF as set by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 367/2014. For the sake of clarity, the amounts to be made available to the EAFRD should be also published.
(5) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 367/2014 should therefore be amended accordingly,
