2. BUDGET LINES:
Chapter 12, Article 120
Amount budgeted for the year 2023: 21 590 300 000€
3. FINANCIAL IMPACT
Proposal has no financial implications
X Proposal has no financial impact on expenditure but has a financial impact on revenue – the effect is as follows:
| Budget line | Revenue | Period: part of 2023 - part of 2024* (EUR million to one decimal place) |
| Article 120 Chapter 12 14 | Impact on own resources | 48.4 |
| Total |
* One-year period since entry into force of the regulation
The calculations are based on 2021 import volumes of products covered by the proposed Regulation in excess of the annual duty-free quota (i.e. 40 tariff rate quotas) as well as an estimation of anti-dumping duties.
Based on the above calculations the loss of traditional own resources revenue from this Decision is estimated at EUR 64.5 million (gross amount, including collection costs) x 0,75 = EUR 48.4 million for the period in question.
4. ANTI-FRAUD MEASURES
In order to prevent fraud, the entitlement to the trade measures established by the proposed Regulation should be conditional upon Ukraine having complied with all the relevant conditions for obtaining benefits under the Association Agreement, including the rules of origin of products concerned and the procedures related thereto, as well as Ukraine's involvement in close administrative cooperation with the Union, as provided for by the Association Agreement.
