Amending budget 2/2010: 2009 surplus
2010/2056(BUD)
On 16 April 2010, the Commission submitted draft amending budget (DAB) No 4 to the general budget for 2010 concerning the budgeting of the surplus resulting from the implementation of the budget year 2009.
The implementation of the budget year 2009 showed a surplus of EUR 2 253 591 199.37, resulting from:
- an over-registering in revenue (+ EUR 3 996 331 619.33);
- an under-spending of payment appropriations (- EUR 1 928 282 180.35).
The budgeting of this surplus would diminish accordingly the global contribution of Member States to the financing of the EU budget.
On 11 June 2010, the Council adopted its position on draft amending budget No 4 for the financial year 2010 as set out in the technical annex to its explanatory memorandum.
