Amending budget 3/2013: surplus from the budget year 2012
2013/2070(BUD)
On 15 April 2013, the Commission submitted to the Council draft amending budget (DAB) No 3 to the general budget for 2013 concerning the budgeting of the surplus resulting from the implementation of the budget year 2012.
The implementation of the budget year 2012 shows a surplus of EUR 1 023 276 525.93 resulting from:
- an over-registering in revenue (+ EUR 719 million),
- an under-spending of payment appropriations (+ EUR 244 million),
- a positive balance of monetary exchange (+ EUR 60 million).
The budgeting of this surplus will diminish accordingly the global contribution of Member States to the financing of the EU budget.
On 9 July 2013, the Council adopted its position on draft amending budget No 3/2013 as set out in the technical annex to the explanatory memorandum of this Council draft amending budget.
