COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 624/83

of 15 March 1983

amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 2744/80 establishing supplementary measures in favour of the United Kingdom

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 235 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),

Whereas, in accordance with the conclusions reached by the Council on 30 May 1980 (3), payments in favour of the United Kingdom relating to the years 1980 and 1981 have been made by means of the supplementary measures established by Regulation (EEC) No 2744/80 (4);

Whereas, in accordance with the said Council conclusions of 30 May 1980, the Community is pledged to resolve the problem for 1982 by means of structural changes; whereas, in the absence of such a solution, the said conclusions provide that the Commission will make proposals along the lines of the 1980 to 1981 solution;

Whereas a separate Regulation establishes specific measures of Community interest relating to energy strategy which will also apply to the United Kingdom;

Whereas, in accordance with the conclusions reached by the Ministers for Foreign Affairs on 26 October 1982, the solution for 1982 continues within the framework laid down for 1980 and 1981, which includes the amended financial mechanism and the supplementary measures; whereas there is also a need to take account of the amount used for the implementation of the aforementioned energy measures in the United Kingdom;

Whereas the total amount of the Community's financial contribution in favour of the supplementary measures in the United Kingdom is estimated as 692 million ECU; whereas this amount will be adjusted to take account of the conclusions reached by the Ministers for Foreign Affairs on 26 October 1982;

Whereas it is consequently necessary to adapt and to extend Regulation (EEC) No 2744/80; whereas the Treaty has not provided for the specific powers of action required to this end,
