Abstract

This Regulation lays down some amendments to Regulation (EU) No. 543/2011, which make provision on the vegetable and processed fruit and vegetable sectors. Annex IX to that Implementing Regulation sets out the list of actions or expenditure not eligible for support under operational programmes. It indicates that specific costs for environmental measures, including costs generated by environmental management of packaging are, as an exception, eligible. However, based on that experience and in order to encourage the implementation of more cost-effective environmental actions and to reduce the costs related to the management of the European Union regime, this Regulation determines to bandon support to environmental actions related to management of packaging.
