Authorisation of commitments and payments:

The Agency of the Republic of Slovenia for Payment Transactions, Supervision and Information shall be notified of any such authorisations.

Establishment and transfer of payment entitlements with authorisation

In case of transfer of the payment entitlements, the authorisation shall follow the payment entitlement to which it is linked.

2.In case the number of authorisation is lower that the number of payment entitlements, the authorisation shall be linked to the payment entitlements starting from those with the highest unit value.

in case of sale of payment entitlements to which it is linked the authorisation referred to in Article 60 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, up to 10 % of the value of each payment entitlement.

2.Set-aside entitlements and payment entitlements accompanied by the authorisation provided for in Article 60 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 when reverting to the national reserve shall loose the accompanying obligation or authorisation.

A Member State may allow the buyer to apply on behalf of the seller and with the explicit authorisation of the seller for the establishment of the payment entitlements in accordance with Article 12.

(2) the documents required by law and other documents substantiating the request for the issue of the authorisation and evidence of payment of the tax of decision-adopting shall be attached to the request.

Certain Council Regulations in the field of agriculture provide for specific authorisations for the payment of aid by Member States, often in combination with or in addition to Community financing.

Where a Member State makes use of the option provided for in Article 59 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, and it decides to apply Article 7 of this Regulation, for the purpose of the allocation of payment entitlements in accordance with that Article 7, the number of payment entitlements to which an authorization as referred to in Article 60 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 is linked shall be equal to the initial number of payment entitlements with the authorisation and, where the case may be, no higher than the number of payment entitlements allocated.

The number of hectares for which the authorisation has been established according to paragraphs 3 and 4 shall in no case exceed the number of eligible hectares as defined in Article 44(2) declared in the first year of application of the single payment scheme.

Authorisation of expenditure is the act whereby the authorising officer responsible, having verified that the appropriations are available and by issuing a payment order, instructs the accounting officer to pay an amount of expenditure which he/she has validated.

1.Where a Member State makes use of the option provided for in Article 59(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, the authorisations established according to Article 60 of that Regulation shall be linked to each individual payment entitlement to be allocated to the farmer concerned.

The following is added to point 5: "The administrative subunit responsible for the execution of the payments, or else a unit responsible for supervising it, shall have available documentary evidence of the authorisation of claims, and of the administrative and physical checks prescribed.

The validation, authorisation and payment of expenditure must be completed within the time limits laid down in the implementing rules, which shall also specify the circumstances in which creditors paid late are entitled to receive default interest charged to the line from which the principal was paid.

This Regulation should stipulate that the operations of validation, authorisation and payment must be completed within a time limit which will be set in the implementing rules and that in the event of failure to respect this time limit creditors will be entitled to default interest to be charged to the budget.

Moreover, this is also justified by the fact that that obligation or authorisation is established on the basis of historical references and once the single payment scheme is in place it will not be possible to determine who should receive set-aside entitlements of authorisations out of the reserve as the support will be decoupled.

The following sentence is added to the second subparagraph of point 6(ii): "Appropriate measures must be taken to avoid a conflict of interests where a person occupying a position of responsibility or a sensitive position with regard to the verification, authorisation and payment of claims on the Fund also fulfils other functions outside the paying agency."

1.Where it is established that the ratio referred to in Article 3(1) of this Regulation is decreasing the Member State concerned shall, at national or regional level, provide for the obligation of farmers applying for aid under any of the direct payment schemes listed in Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 not to convert land under permanent pasture without prior authorisation.

By way of derogation from Article 14(3), fourth indent of Regulation (EC) No 2100/94, the requirement to pay an equitable remuneration to the holder of a Community plant variety right shall not apply until 31 December 2010 to Lithuanian farmers who continue to use an established variety in accordance with the authorisation provided for in Article 14(1) if, before the date of accession, they have already used that variety for the purposes described in Article 14(1) without payment of remuneration.

The validation, authorisation and payment of expenditure must be completed within a period of no more than 90 days from the date on which payment is due.

Enter, where applicable, the reference particulars of the authorisation in question; deferred payment here refers both to deferred payment of customs duties and to tax credit.

The decisions and procedures for commitment, validation, authorisation and payment of expenditure by the Commission are defined in this Chapter.

The authorising officer shall authorise the accounting officer, by the issue of a payment order (authorisation), to pay an item of expenditure which has been validated.
