summary
The European Parliament adopted the report by Mrs Jutta HAUG (PES, D) on the draft SAB 1/2001. The House approved the budget for 2001 of some EUR 971 million to pay for extra costs as a result of the BSE crisis. Some EUR 700 millon is to go towards paying for the destruction of 530,000 tonnes of beef and another EUR 238 million to buy-in 125,000 tonnes of beef to go into stock. The rest is to go towards paying for extra tests on animals. However, the Parliament pointed out that it is likely that the SAB 1/2001 will not be sufficient to cope with the BSE crisis. Parliament's resolution also supports the idea of agriculture spending coming under the co-decision procedure and thus subject to closer parliamentary control. Moreover, the House has approved the modifications to the budgetary remarks of heading B7-541, aiming to clarify the European Agency for Reconstruction's mandate in favour of Montenegro, within the ceiling agreed by the budgetary authority, in proportion of the appropriations dedicated to Montenegro. �

summary
PURPOSE: presentation of the supplementary and amending budget 1/2001 concerning certain measures relating to BSE. CONTENT: The Council confirming an agreement reached in COREPER by qualified majority established the Draft Supplementary and Amending Budget (DSAB) 1/2001 to finance a package of BSE related measures agreed by the Agriculture Council at its January 2001 meeting. The DSAB makes a provision for additional expenditure of EURO 971 million -of which EURO 726 million will be funds drawn from the available margin under budgetary sub heading 1a. The EURO 726 million will be covered entirely by the surplus recovered from the previous year. The remaining EURO 245 million will come from adjustments in forecasts for agricultural expenditure resulting from an adapted Euro/Dollar exchange rate, in line with article 8 of the Council Regulation of 26 September 2000 on budgetary discipline.�

summary
PURPOSE : to present the draft supplementary and amending budget 1/2001 of the European Communities for the 2001 financial year - section III (Commission). CONTENT : in December 2000, the Commission announced that it would present a SAB in early 2001 to cater for the additional costs of the BSE crisis. The Nice European Council noticed that the measures to be proposed by the Commission should be " in strict compliance with the financial perspective". The present is a very urgent and targeted SAB, which cannot therefore include an updating of the agro-economical assumptions for the common agricultural policy. The BSE crisis erupted too late last year to be incorporated into the then ongoing budget procedure. The budget 2001 as adopted leaves a margin of EUR 1 232,3 million below the ceiling provided for heading 1a, which it is now proposed to use. The main items covered by the present proposal include: the additional costs decided in December by the Agriculture Council and related to the destruction scheme for animals older than 30 months (EUR 700 million), market intervention in the beef market (EUR 238 million) and the co-financing of BSE tests (EUR 33 million). This BSE related costs total EUR 971 million. The present SAB also proposes to update the EUR/USD exchange rate with a subsequent reduction of EUR 245 million of the appropriations provided to take into account the smaller gap between EU and world market prices. With these assumption for the year 2001 the biggest reductions are occurring for arable crops (EUR 178 million), followed by much smaller decreases for sugar, textile plants and other plant sectors and products (EUR 22, 24 and 16 million respectively). Some minor adjustments can be operated for Food aid and POSEI. An additional technical element of the present preliminary draft SAB is the proposed modification of a budgetary remark in heading 4: external relations. The remark for B7-541 for the Western Balkans, would be completed in order to allow the reconstruction Agency, currently operating in Kosovo and Serbia to extend its activity to Montenegro and to cover its administrative costs with a maximum of 8% of the overall multiannual amount fixed for the programme. The Commission believes that additional appropriations can be financed by an increase of the surplus available from the 2000 financal year, stemming both from surplus in the revenues and under-implementation of the expenditures, in particular in the area of Structural Funds. The call for own resources will therefore not change.�
