of 22 June 2021

on the financial contributions to be paid by the parties to the European Development Fund to finance that Fund, including the second instalment for 2021

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Internal Agreement between the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States of the European Union, meeting within the Council, on the financing of European Union aid under the multiannual financial framework for the period 2014 to 2020, in accordance with the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement, and on the allocation of financial assistance for the Overseas Countries and Territories to which Part Four of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union applies (1), and in particular Article 7(2) in conjunction with Article 14(3) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EU) 2018/1877 of 26 November 2018 on the financial regulation applicable to the 11th European Development Fund, and repealing Regulation (EU) 2015/323 (2), and in particular Article 19(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with the procedure laid down in Articles 19 to 22 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1877, the Commission is to present a proposal by 15 June 2021 setting out the amount of the second instalment of the contribution for 2021 and a revised annual amount of the contribution for 2021, where the amount deviates from actual needs.
(2) In accordance with Article 46 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1877, on 6 April 2021 the European Investment Bank (EIB) sent the Commission its updated estimates of commitments and payments under the instruments it manages.
(3) Pursuant to Article 20(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1877, calls for contributions are to first use up the amounts laid down for previous European Development Funds. Therefore a call for funds pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2018/1877 should be made for the Commission and for the EIB.

However, pursuant to Article 153 of the Withdrawal Agreement, the United Kingdom’s share in decommitted funds from projects under the 11th EDF, where those funds have been decommitted after 31 December 2020, or previous EDFs is not to be reused.
(5) Council Decision (EU) 2020/1708 (4) sets the annual amount of the Member States’ EDF contributions for 2021 at EUR 3 700 000 000 for the Commission, and at EUR 300 000 000 for the EIB.
