Amendment 1 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 2
Paragraph 2
2. Notes with concern from the Court’s report that the Centre did not apply the proper method for calculating the contributions for Iceland and Norway similarly to 2019; notes that the Cedefop- EFTA cooperation agreement states that EFTA cooperation partners contribute at a level determined by the proportion of their GNP to the total GNP of the EEA and that Norway’s and Iceland’s contributions in the initial budget were calculated according to the proportion of their GDP (2,27 % for Norway and 0,14 % for Iceland) to the GDP of the EU Members of the EEA, not to the total GNP of the EEA; notes that, as a result, Norway and Iceland contributed EUR 8 601 less to the Centre’s 2020 budget than they should have done and that the Union contributed EUR 8 601 more; notes that, although payment appropriations and revenues were reduced by EUR 1 100 000 in the first 2020 budget amendment, no part of the budget reduction was returned to Norway and Iceland, thus they contributed EUR 25 886 more in 2020; notes that the implementation of the correct method for calculating contributions is still ongoing despite the recommendations on the method for calculating contributions made by the Court of Auditors in 2019;
