Abstract

"Modulation" involves the making of a deduction from payments due under Common Agricultural Policy direct support schemes and the reallocation of the amount so deducted to agri-environment, afforestation and less-favoured areas support schemes. The proportion which is to be deducted is fixed by Member States; in Scotland, the proportion for each year is set out in regulation 4(1) of the principal Regulations. The amendments in these Regulations reflect the amendment of Council Regulation (EC) 1259/1999 by Commission Regulation (EC) 41/2004, which replaces the Annex to that Council Regulation. The effect is that payments under the direct support schemes introduced by Title IV of Council Regulation (EC) 1782/2003 (dairy premium and additional payments, durum wheat, protein crops, potato starch, nuts and energy crops) will be subject to modulation in Scotland, in addition to the direct support schemes that are already subject to modulation. These Regulations also make amendments to update the principal Regulations to reflect recent minor and technical amendments to other Community instruments.
