Common Agricultural Policy Support Schemes (Modulation) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2004 (S.S.I. of 398 of 2004). Country/Territory United Kingdom Territorial subdivision Scotland Document type Regulation Date 2004 Source FAO, FAOLEX Subject Agricultural & rural development Keyword Policy/planning Subsidy/incentive Geographical area Atlantic Ocean Islands, Europe, Europe and Central Asia, North Atlantic, North Sea, North-East Atlantic, Northern Europe Entry into force notes Coming into force 16 October 2004. 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.
