    Remarks

    The GNI-based resource is an ‘additional’ resource, providing the revenue required to cover expenditure in excess of the amount yielded by traditional own resources, VAT-based payments and other revenue in any particular year. By implication, the GNI-based resource ensures that the general budget of the Union is always balanced ex ante.

    The GNI call rate is determined by the additional revenue needed to finance the budgeted expenditure not covered by the other resources (VAT-based payments, traditional own resources and other revenue). Thus a call rate is applied to the GNI of each of the Member States.

    The rate to be applied to the Member States’ gross national income for this financial year is 0,6450%.

    Legal basis

    Council Decision 2014/335/EU, Euratom of 26 May 2014 on the system of own resources of the European Union (OJ L 168, 7.6.2014, p. 105), and in particular Article 2(1)(c) thereof.

    Remarks

    This article is intended to record appropriations resulting from the mobilisation of the European Union Solidarity Fund in the event of major disasters in the Member States. Assistance should be provided mainly in connection with natural disasters, but may also be provided, where warranted by the urgency of the situation, to the Member States concerned, with a deadline being laid down for use of the financial assistance awarded and provision being made for beneficiary states to substantiate the use made of the assistance they receive. Assistance received which is subsequently offset by third-party payments, under the ‘polluter pays’ principle, for example, or received in excess of the final valuation of damage should be recovered.

    With the exception of the advance payment, the allocation of the appropriations will be decided on in an amending budget with the sole purpose of mobilising the European Union Solidarity Fund.
