COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2015/1366

of 11 May 2015

supplementing Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to aid in the apiculture sector

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular Articles 56(1), 223(2) and 231(1) thereof,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008 (2), and in particular Article 106(5) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 replaced Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 (3) and lays down new rules regarding aid in the apiculture sector. It also empowers the Commission to adopt delegated and implementing acts in that respect. In order to ensure the smooth functioning of the aid scheme in the new legal framework, certain rules have to be adopted by means of such acts. Those acts should replace Commission Regulation (EC) No 917/2004 (4).

 

(2)

Article 55 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 states that Member States may draw up national programmes for the apiculture sector covering a period of three years (‘apiculture programmes’). It is necessary to fix the basis for allocating the Union's financial contribution to the participating Member States.

 

(3)

The number of beehives in each participating Member State is an indicator of the size of the Member States' apiculture sector. The share of each participating Member State in the total number of beehives in the Union represents a simple basis on which to allocate the Union contribution to the apiculture programmes.

 

(4)

In order to ensure a sound distribution of the Union funds, participating Member States should have a reliable method to determine the number of beehives in their territory.

 

(5)

As the number of beehives vary during the seasons of the year, it is necessary to fix the period when the number of beehives is determined.

 

(6)

It is necessary for the Commission to know the number of beehives in the Member States not only in order to allocate the Union contribution to the apiculture programmes but also in order to follow the trend in the number of beehives in the Member States in order to evaluate the impact of support measures on the beekeeping sector and to inform European citizens. Therefore, participating Member States should report to the Commission on a yearly basis the number of beehives determined in accordance with this Regulation.

 

(7)

In order to allow all Member States to implement a cost-effective apiculture programme, a specified minimum amount of Union aid per programme should be set.

 

(8)

In order to ensure the effective and efficient use of Union funds for apiculture, it is necessary that Member States avoid double funding with respect to their apiculture programmes under aid in the apiculture sector pursuant to Article 55 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 and rural development support pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5).

 

(9)

For those Member States which have not adopted the euro, it is necessary to establish rules for the fixation of the exchange rate applicable...
