10 Amendments of Daniel BUDA related to 2014/0014(COD)

Amendment 75 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 5
(5) Educational measures that support the distribution are necessary in order to make the scheme effective in reaching its short- and long-term objectives of increasing the consumption of selected agricultural products and shaping healthier diets. Considering their importance, these measures should support both the fruit and vegetables including bananas and milk distribution. They should be eligible for the Union aid. As supporting measures they represent a critical tool to reconnect children with agriculture and its different products and to meet the objectives that the scheme is pursuing, Member States should implement public information and awareness-raising measures, especially targeting parents and trainers, and be allowed to include a wider variety of agricultural products into their thematic measures, according to regional agricultural specificities. However, so as to promote healthy eating habits, the national health authorities should be involved in this process and approve the list of these products, as well as the two groups of products eligible for the distribution, and decide on their nutritional aspects.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 7
(7) In order to ensure the efficient and targeted use of Union funds, the power to adopt certain acts should be delegated to the Commission in respect of measures fixing the indicative allocations of the Union aid to each Member State and the methods for reallocating aid between Member States on the basis of aid requests received. The indicative allocations should be fixed separately for the fruit and vegetables including bananas and milk in line with the voluntary approach to distribution. The allocation key for fruit and vegetables including bananas should reflect the current allocations by Member States, based on the objective criteria of the number of children in the age group of sixfour- to ten-year olds as a proportion of the population, taking into the account also the development status of regions concerned. In order to allow Member States to maintain the scale of their current programmes and with a view of encouraging others to take up the distribution of milk, it is appropriate to use the combination of two keys for the allocation of the funds for milk, namely the historical use of funds by Member States under the School Milk Scheme and the objective criteria of the number of children in the age group of sixfour- to ten-year olds as a proportion of the population used for the fruit and vegetables including bananas. In order to find the right proportion for these two keys, the power to adopt certain acts should be delegated to the Commission in respect of adopting additional rules concerning the balance between the two criteria. Furthermore, considering the recurrent changes in the demographic or development situation of regions in Member States, the power to adopt certain acts should be delegated to the Commission in respect of assessing every three years whether the Member States’ allocations, based on those criteria, are still up to date.

Amendment 115 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 9
(9) In the interest of sound administration and budget management, Member States wishing to participate in the distribution of fruit and vegetables, including bananas and/or milk should apply every year for the Union aid. With a view of simplifying the procedures and management, this application should be done on the basis of separate aid requests. Member States should enjoy greater flexibility regarding the transfer of indicative allocations between sectors for fruit, vegetables, including bananas, milk and milk products. Following the requests of the Member States, the Commission should decide on the definitive allocations for fruit and vegetables, including bananas and milk, within the appropriations available in the budget and after taking into account limited transfers between their allocations, which encourage prioritising of distribution based on nutritional needs. The power to adopt certain acts should be delegated to the Commission in respect of the measures setting the conditions and the limits concerning these transfers.
