Proposal for a regulation

Recital 2
(2) Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 has established a system of compulsory, progressive reduction of direct payments ('modulation') including an exemption of direct payments of up to EUR 5 000 to be applicable until calendar year 2012. As a consequence, the total net amounts of direct payments ('net ceilings') which may be granted in a Member State after application of modulation have been fixed until calendar year 2012. In order to maintain the amount of direct payments in calendar year 2013 on a level similar to that of 2012, however with due account taken to phasing-in in the new Member States, it is appropriate to establish an adjustment mechanism for 2013 having an equivalent effect to that of the modulation and the net ceilings. Due to the specificities of the support in the outermost regions under the common agricultural policy, such adjustment mechanism should not be applied to farmers in those regions.

Recital 4
(4) According to the phasing-in mechanism provided for in the Act of Accession of 2005, the level of direct payments in Bulgaria and Romania continues to be below the level of direct payments applicable in the other Member States in 2013 after application of the adjustment of payments to farmers in the transitional period. Therefore, the adjustment mechanism should not apply to farmers in Bulgaria and Romania.
