Having regard to the Internal Agreement between the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States of the European Union, meeting within the Council, on the financing of European Union aid under the multiannual financial framework for the period 2014 to 2020, in accordance with the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement, and on the allocation of financial assistance for the Overseas Countries and Territories to which Part Four of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union applies (1), and in particular Article 7(2) in conjunction with Article 14(3) thereof,

|
(3) |

(*1) Further to Article 153 of the Withdrawal Agreement, the United Kingdom formally requested in March 2023 that the Commission refund in 2023 its outstanding share of the 10th and 11th EDF reserves by netting-out the United Kingdom’s outstanding contribution to the EDF for 2023 (2nd and 3rd instalments, i.e. a total of EUR 154,12 million). That netting-out will be reflected in the respective payment instructions.
