C 307 E/36 NL Publicatieblad van de Europese Gemeenschappen 26. 10. 1999 Ontwerpbesluit van de Associatieraad EG-Sloveniº tot vaststelling van de voorwaarden voor de deelname van Sloveniº aan het programma ter bevordering van de energie-efficiºntie in de Ge- meenschap (SAVE II) DE ASSOCIATIERAAD, Gelet op de Europa-Overeenkomst waarbij een associatie tot stand wordt gebracht tussen de Europese Gemeenschappen en hun lidstaten, enerzijds, en Sloveniº, anderzijds, inzonderheid op artikel 106, Overwegende dat Sloveniº, overeenkomstig artikel 106 van genoemde Europa-Overeenkomst, mag deel- nemen aan communautaire kaderprogramma’s, specifieke programma’s, projecten en andere activiteiten, met name op energiegebied, en dat over de voorwaarden voor de deelname van Sloveniº aan de in artikel 106 genoemde activiteiten wordt besloten door de Associatieraad, BESLUIT: Artikel 1 Sloveniº neemt deel aan het programma SAVE II van de Europese Gemeenschap overeenkomstig de voorwaarden die zijn opgenomen in bijlagen I en II, welke een integrerend deel uitmaken van dit Besluit. Dit besluit is van toepassing voor de looptijd van het programma SAVE II. Artikel 2 Artikel 3 Dit besluit treedt in werking op de eerste dag van de maand volgende op de datum van goedkeuring. BIJLAGE I Voorwaarden voor de deelname van Sloveniº aan het meerjarenprogramma ter bevordering van de energie- efficiºntie in de Gemeenschap (SAVE II) 1. Sloveniº neemt deel aan alle activiteiten in het kader van het meerjarenprogramma ter bevordering van de energie- efficiºntie in de Gemeenschap (SAVE II), overeenkomstig, tenzij in dit Besluit anders wordt bepaald, de doelstellingen, criteria, procedures en termijnen die zijn vastgelegd in Beschikking nr. 96/737/EG van de Raad, waarbij een vijfjarenprogramma wordt vastgesteld voor het uitwerken en ten uitvoer leggen van maatregelen en acties ter bevordering van de energie-efficiºntie in de Gemeenschap. 2. Voor instellingen, organisaties en personen uit Sloveniº gelden met betrekking tot de indiening, evaluatie en selectie van inschrijvingen dezelfde voorwaarden als voor instellingen, organisaties en personen uit de Gemeenschap, binnen de grenzen van de financiºle bijdrage van Sloveniº verminderd met de administratieve kosten, zoals bepaald in bijlage II. 3. Met het oog op de communautaire dimensie van het programma SAVE II dient bij transnationale projecten en activiteiten waarvoor Sloveniº voorstellen indient, een minimumaantal partners uit de lidstaten van de Gemeenschap te worden aangetrokken. Over het precieze aantal wordt besloten in het kader van de tenuitvoerlegging van het programma SAVE II, rekening houdende met de aard van de verschillende activiteiten, het aantal partners dat bij het project is betrokken, en het aantal landen dat aan het programma deelneemt. 4. Sloveniº neemt op nationaal niveau de nodige maatregelen voor de co(cid:246)rdinatie en organisatie van de deelname aan het programma SAVE II. 5. Sloveniº levert ieder jaar een bijdrage aan de algemene begroting van de Europese Gemeenschappen, ten einde de kosten van de deelname aan het programma SAVE II te dekken (zie bijlage II). Het AssociatiecomitØ kan besluiten deze bijdrage aan te passen, voor zover dat wenselijk wordt geacht. 6. De lidstaten van de Gemeenschap en Sloveniº stellen, binnen het kader van de bestaande bepalingen, alles in het werk om voor alle bij activiteiten in het kader van dit Besluit betrokken personen het vrije verkeer tussen en het verblijf in Sloveniº en de lidstaten van de Gemeenschap te vergemakkelijken. 26. 10. 1999 NL Publicatieblad van de Europese Gemeenschappen C 307 E/37 7. Onverminderd de bevoegdheden van de Commissie en de Rekenkamer van de Europese Gemeenschappen in verband met het toezicht op en de evaluatie van het programma SAVE II, overeenkomstig artikel 5 van de desbetreffende beschikking van de Raad, wordt de deelname van Sloveniº op partnerschapsbasis door Sloveniº en de Commissie van de Europese Gemeenschappen permanent geºvalueerd. Sloveniº legt de nodige verslagen voor aan de Commissie en neemt deel aan alle in dit verband door de Gemeenschap ondernomen activiteiten. 8. Onverminderd de procedures bedoeld in de artikelen 4 en 5 van de Beschikking van de Raad betreffende het programma SAVE II, wordt Sloveniº uitgenodigd voor de aan de gewone vergaderingen van het programmacomitØ voorafgaande co(cid:246)rdinatiebijeenkomsten over alle met de tenuitvoerlegging van genoemde Beschikking verband houdende vraagstukken. De Commissie brengt Sloveniº op de hoogte van de resultaten van de gewone vergaderin- gen. 9. Bij het inschrijven, het opstellen van overeenkomsten en verslagen en andere administratieve aangelegenheden in verband met het programma SAVE II dient gebruik te worden gemaakt van een van de officiºle talen van de Gemeenschap. BIJLAGE II Financiºle bijdrage van Sloveniº aan SAVE II 1. De financiºle bijdrage van Sloveniº dient ter dekking van: (cid:151) subsidies of om het even welke andere financiºle steun in het kader van het programma aan Sloveense deel- nemers, (cid:151) het dekken van de extra administratieve kosten van de Commissie van de Europese Gemeenschappen in verband met de deelname van Sloveniº. 2. Per begrotingsjaar mag het totaalbedrag van subsidies en andere financiºle steun in het kader van het programma aan Sloveense begunstigden, na aftrek van de extra administratieve kosten, niet meer bedragen dan de bijdrage van Sloveniº. Blijkt de bijdrage van Sloveniº aan de algemene begroting van de Gemeenschap, na aftrek van de extra administra- tieve kosten, hoger te zijn dan het totaalbedrag van subsidies en andere financiºle steun ten behoeve van de deelname van Sloveense organisaties aan het programma, dan wordt het resterende bedrag door de Commissie overgeheveld naar het volgende begrotingsjaar en van de bijdrage voor dat jaar afgetrokken. Na beºindiging van het programma worden de resterende middelen terugbetaald aan Sloveniº. 3. De jaarlijkse bijdrage van Sloveniº bedraagt 57 942 EUR vanaf 1999. Daarvan is 3 942 EUR bestemd voor het dekken van de extra administratieve kosten van de Commissie in verband met de deelname van Sloveniº. 4. Het Financieel Reglement dat van toepassing is op de algemene begroting van de Gemeenschap, geldt ook voor het beheer van de bijdrage van Sloveniº. Bij de inwerkingtreding van dit Besluit en aan het begin van ieder jaar doet de Commissie Sloveniº een verzoek tot storting toekomen ter hoogte van de bijdrage van Sloveniº aan de kosten als bij dit Besluit vastgesteld. Deze bijdrage wordt uitgedrukt in EUR en dient te worden overgemaakt op een in EUR gestelde bankrekening van de Commissie. De bijdrage van Sloveniº aan de jaarlijkse kosten als bij dit Besluit vastgesteld stemt overeen met het verzoek tot storting en dient uiterlijk drie maanden na verzending van dit verzoek te worden betaald. Bij vertraging betaalt Sloveniº rente over het op de vervaldag nog achterstallige bedrag. De rentetarieven zijn die welke door de ECB gedurende de maand van de vervaldag worden toegepast voor transacties in EUR, verhoogd met 1,5 procentpunten. 5. Sloveniº financiert de in punt 3 bedoelde extra administratieve kosten (3 942 EUR) uit zijn nationale begroting. 6. Sloveniº financiert 54 000 EUR van de resterende kosten in verband met de deelname aan het programma SAVE II uit zijn nationale begroting
