REGULATION (EU) 2017/2305 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 12 December 2017
amending Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 as regards the changes to the resources for economic, social and territorial cohesion and to the resources for the Investment for growth and jobs goal and for the European territorial cooperation goal
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 177 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
After consulting the European Economic and Social Committee,
After consulting the Committee of the Regions,
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (1),
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) lays down the common and general rules applicable to the European Structural and Investment Funds. |
(2) |
In accordance with Article 7(1) of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013 (3) and Article 92(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, the Commission reviewed in 2016 the total allocations of all Member States under the Investment for growth and jobs goal of cohesion policy for the years 2017 to 2020. |
(3) |
In accordance with Article 7(3) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013 and Article 92(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, the Commission presented the results of that review in a communication to the Council and the European Parliament of 30 June 2016 on the technical adjustment of the financial framework for 2017 in line with movements in gross national income (GNI) and adjustment of cohesion policy envelopes. The Commission stated in that communication that, on the basis of the most recent statistics, there is a cumulative divergence of more than +/– 5 % between the total and the revised allocations in Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, Croatia, Italy, Cyprus, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden and the United Kingdom. In addition, the Commission stated that, on the basis of its GNI per capita figures for 2012-2014, Cyprus would become fully eligible for support from the Cohesion Fund as of 1 January 2017. |
(4) |
As required by Article 7(4) and (5) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013 and Article 92(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, the allocations of those Member States are to be adjusted accordingly, provided that the total net effect of those adjustments does not exceed EUR 4 billion. |
(5) |
Insofar as the review had an impact on the annual breakdown of the allocations for the global resources by Member State under the Investment for growth and jobs goal and under the European territorial cooperation goal, as well as on the Youth Employment Initiative ('YEI'), the review was implemented by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1941 (4). |
(6) |
The total net effect of those adjustments is to increase the resources for economic, social and territorial cohesion by EUR 4 billion. That increase should be reflected in Article 91(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, which should therefore be adjusted accordingly. |
(7) |
The resources for the Investment for growth and jobs goal and their allocation among less developed regions, transition regions, more developed regions, Member States supported by the Cohesion Fund, and outermost regions, as set out in Article 92(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, should be adjusted accordingly. |
(8) |
In accordance with Article 14(1) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013, the margins left available below the ceilings for commitment appropriations of... |
