COUNCIL REGULATION (EU, Euratom) 2019/2234
of 19 December 2019
on measures concerning the implementation and financing of the general budget of the Union in 2020 in relation to the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the Union
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 352 thereof,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, and in particular Article 203 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
Having regard to the consent of the European Parliament (1),
Acting in accordance with a special legislative procedure,
Whereas:
(1) |
On 29 March 2017, the United Kingdom submitted the notification of its intention to withdraw from the Union pursuant to Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU). The Treaties will cease to apply to the United Kingdom from the date of entry into force of the withdrawal agreement or, failing that, two years after that notification, that is, from 30 March 2019, unless the European Council, in agreement with the United Kingdom, unanimously decides to extend that period. The period has been extended twice by the European Council, most recently by its Decision (EU) 2019/584 (2), which extended it until 31 October 2019. In the absence of a withdrawal agreement with the United Kingdom and of a further extension of the period referred to in Article 50(3) TEU, a financial settlement with regard to the financial obligations following from the membership of the United Kingdom in the Union needs to be agreed in a future international agreement between the Union and the United Kingdom. |
(2) |
This Regulation is without prejudice to the respective obligations of the Union and the United Kingdom resulting from the whole period of the membership of the United Kingdom in the Union. |
(3) |
Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2019/1197 (3) has laid down rules on the relations between the Union, on the one hand, and the United Kingdom and its beneficiaries, on the other, as regards the financing and implementation of the general budget of the Union (‘the budget’) in 2019. It is necessary to lay down rules on the relations between the Union, on the one hand, and the United Kingdom and its beneficiaries, on the other, also as regards the financing and implementation of the budget in 2020. |
(4) |
The Treaties do not provide powers other than those under Article 352 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and Article 203 of the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community for the adoption of the measures concerning the implementation and financing of the budget in 2020 in relation to the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the Union without a withdrawal agreement. |
(5) |
The United Kingdom, and persons and entities established in the United Kingdom, are participating in a number of Union programmes or actions on the basis of the membership of the United Kingdom in the Union. That participation takes place on the basis of agreements with the United Kingdom or persons or entities established in the United Kingdom, or decisions in favour of the United Kingdom or persons or entities established in the United Kingdom which constitute legal commitments. |
(6) |
For many of those agreements and decisions, the rules governing the eligibility require the beneficiary to be a Member State or a person or entity established in a Member State. The eligibility of the United Kingdom, or persons or entities established in the United Kingdom, is in such cases linked to the United Kingdom being a Member State. The withdrawal of the United Kingdom... |
