Amending budget No 2/2023: 2022 surplus

Rövid áttekintés 05-07-2023

The purpose of Draft Amending Budget No 2/2023 (DAB 2/2023) to the EU's 2023 general budget is to enter the €2.5 billion surplus from implementation of the 2022 budget as revenue in the 2023 budget. The surplus is the result of higher than expected revenues from customs duties collected in the last months of 2022 and under-spending on the expenditure side. Inclusion of the surplus will lead to a corresponding reduction in Member States' gross national income (GNI) contributions to the 2023 budget. Ϸվ is expected to vote on the Council's position on DAB 2/2023 during its July session.
