Article 10(3) and (4) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 of 29 September 2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers (3) laid down the criteria for the allocation of the amounts generated by the modulation provided for in paragraph 1 of that Article.

This provision having been adopted in Article 9(2) and (3) of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, the amounts shown in the Annex to Decision 2006/588/EC for the years 2009 to 2012 are deemed to have been allocated to the Member States pursuant to Article 9(2) and (3) of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009. These amounts therefore continue to apply. |
|
(5) |
