(2) |
Pursuant to Article 5(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 the Member States eligible for funding from the Cohesion Fund shall be those whose per capita gross national income (GNI), measured in purchasing power parities and calculated on the basis of Community figures for the period 2001-2003, is less than 90 % of the average GNI of the EU-25. |
(3) |
