EC own resources: information to the Budgetary Authority (amend. Regul. 1552/89/EEC/EURATOM)

1992/1036(CNS)
The European Parliament adopted the report by Mr SAMLAND, which approved the joint text amending the joint guideline of the Council on Regulation 89/1552/EEC (own resources). This text closes the EP/Council conciliation procedure. It constitutes an improvement of the text of the regulation as regards the sugar levy. It accepts the effects of the statements by the Commission, which intends to pay back to the Member States a 10% premium in respect of amounts recovered by them in the fight against fraud. It notes the Commission's undertaking to define procedures making it possible to carry out spot checks in the Member States. The Commission will draw up a report on this matter by the end of 1996. �
