    Annual expenditure planned under the scheme or amount of ad hoc aid granted: EUR 0.55 million

    Website where the full text of the scheme or the criteria and conditions under which ad hoc aid is granted outside of an aid scheme can be found: http://www2.larioja.org/pls/dad_user/G04.texto_integro?p_cdi_accn=18-353374

    Motivation: Indicate why a State aid scheme has been established instead of assistance under the European Fisheries Fund: The subsidies provided for by Order No 5 of 20 March 2012 form part of the operational programme for the Spanish fisheries sector for the period 2007-2013, co-financed by the European Fisheries Fund.

    However, the financial contributions made by the Agencia de Desarrollo Económico de La Rioja are expected to exceed those in the operational programme. We therefore take the view that Article 7(3) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 of 27 July 2006 on the European Fisheries Fund applies and, consequently, Articles 87, 88 and 89 of the Treaty also apply.
