HC Deb 26 June 1972 vol 839 c269W
Mr. Shore

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how much of the European Communities Budget for 1972, in million units of account, is accounted for by FEOGA expenditure in earlier years and by the Market reserves, respectively.

Mr. Nott

The total of FEOGA appropriations reinscribed in the 1972 Budget, as modified by the European Parlament, from earlier years is 696.6 million units of account. This is divided into 145million units of account for the Guarantee Section—Chapter 77, Article 770 of the Budget as modified by the European Parliament—and 551.6 million units of account for the Guidance Section. This latter figure is itself divided between200 million units of account for 1971 projects for the improvement of agricultural structures provided for in Article 13 of Regulation 17/64—Chapter 80 Article 800—and 351.6 million units of account for the Mansholt reserves—Chapter 88, Article 880.
