    Remarks

    New Article

    This appropriation is intended to cover expenditure relating to the European year for Equal Opportunities for All in 2007, for which preparations will be carried out in 2006.

    Building and learning on the achievements of previous Years, notably the 1997 European year Against Racism and most recently the European Year of People with Disabilities in 2003, the European Year of Equal Opportunities will provide an unique opportunity and platform to raise awareness on a more cohesive society that celebrates differences and respect the substantial EU acquis in equality and non-discrimination. It will also stimulate debate and dialogue on questions which are central to achieving a just and inclusive society.

    In order to secure the full involvement of all actors concerned, to prepare the public and achieve the greatest impact, certain activities must be set up in 2006, in preparation to the 2007 European Year.

    The actions to be carried out in 2006 will comprise, inter alia,

    a European conference to launch the year,

    an information campaign for the development, production and dissemination of awareness-raising tools to ensure broad publicity of the upcoming year,

    a Union-wide survey to allow measuring the impact,

    an evaluation of the activities developed in the framework of the year.

    Irrespective of the beneficiary, no administrative expenditure against this article is authorised.

    Legal basis

    Decision No 771/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 May 2006 establishing the European Year of Equal Opportunities for All (2007) — Towards a Just Society (OJ L 146, 31.5.2006, p. 1).

    TITLE 21

    DEVELOPMENT AND RELATIONS WITH AFRICAN, CARIBBEAN AND PACIFIC (ACP) STATES

    Overall objectives

    The policy area covers a wide range of activities from political relations and policy formulation to programming and implementing cooperation programmes. It includes both budgetary appropriations under Heading 4 of the financial perspective and funds under the various European Development Funds (EDF) for the African, Caribbean and Pacific States as well as the overseas countries and territories.

    The amount of the EDF varies from year to year due to the five-year implementation cycle, and corresponds to a yearly average of approximately EUR 2 950 million in commitment appropriations. This is equivalent to about 55 % of total appropriations under Heading 4.

    This implies that significant human resources, which are employed to implement the EDF and the complex operations under the Cotonou Agreement, are to be taken into account in the overall human resources requirements in this policy area.

    TITLE 22

    ENLARGEMENT

    Overall objectives

    This policy area governs the actions, measures and initiatives necessary to ensure that candidate and potential candidate countries stay on course to achieve the targets set with and for them by the European Council.

    This will involve:

    bringing to a successful conclusion Bulgaria's and Romania's accession processes, monitoring their compliance with commitments taken upon closure of negotiations with a view to meeting the accession date of 2007,

    managing the increased financial support granted to Bulgaria and Romania under the Phare programme aimed at helping them meet the structural, institutional, administrative and judicial requirements of EU membership,

    implementing the three-pillar strategy adopted by the Council concerning the next stages of Turkey's accession process, including successfully conducting accession negotiations,

    implementing the increase in pre-accession financial assistance for Turkey agreed by the Copenhagen European Council of December 2002,

    successfully conducting accession negotiations with Croatia with the ultimate goal of membership,

    following up on the Council decision on the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia's application for membership,

    anchoring the other Western Balkan countries on the European track, notably supporting their reforms and preparations or future membership and furthering the stabilisation and association process.

    supporting the reunification process of Cyprus, implementing and monitoring trade and financial support to that aim.

    As far as the 10 new Member States are concerned, the Commission will still be phasing out major enlargement-related tasks and initiatives, and in particular managing the transition facility for institution-building in the new Member States.

    Remarks

    This appropriation is intended to cover financial support for encouraging the economic development of the Turkish Cypriot Community. The assistance will focus particularly on the economic integration of the island and on improving contacts between the two communities and with the European Union in order to facilitate the reunification of Cyprus. The assistance may be used to support:

    the promotion of social and economic development, in particular concerning rural development, human resources development and regional development,

    the development and restructuring of infrastructure, in particular in the areas of energy and transport, the environment, telecommunications and water supply,

    reconciliation, confidence building measures, and support to civil society,

    bringing the Turkish Cypriot community closer to the Union, through, inter alia, information on the European Union's political and legal order, promotion of youth exchanges and scholarships,

    progressive alignment with, and preparation for, implementation of the acquis communautaire.

    Part of this appropriation is also intended to cover the support administrative expenditure necessary to the implementation of the programme such as:

    expenditure on technical and administrative assistance which the Commission may delegate to an implementing agency governed by Community law,

    expenditure on technical and administrative assistance not involving public authority tasks outsourced by the Commission under ad hoc service contracts for the mutual benefit of the beneficiaries and the Commission,

    expenditure on studies, meetings of experts, information and publications directly linked to the achievement of the objective of the programme,

    expenditure on temporary support staff (contract staff, auxiliaries, detached national experts, staff from employment agencies) at headquarters limited to EUR 3 000 000 on an annual basis corresponding to an estimated 28 man/years. This estimate is based on a provisional annual unit cost per man/year, of which 75 % is accounted for by remuneration for the staff concerned and 25 % by the additional cost of training, meetings, missions, IT, telecommunications and eventual rent of premises on the ground.

    Legal basis

    Remarks

    This appropriation is intended to cover budgetary adjustments:

    for imprest accounts, where all appropriate measures have been taken by the authorising officer to deal with the situation and where the adjustment expenditure cannot be booked to another specific budget line;

    in situations where a claim is cancelled in full or in part after it has been booked to the accounts as revenue (in particular in the event of offsetting against a debt);

    in cases where VAT has not been recovered and where it is no longer possible to book the amount to the line that covered the principal expenditure;

    for any interest relating to the above cases, where it cannot be booked to another specific budget line.

    This item is also intended to accommodate, if necessary, an appropriation to cover any losses resulting from the liquidation or cessation of activities of a bank with which the Commission has accounts for the purposes of imprests.
