An amount of 312,5 million ECU is included in the budget for 1986. Within the framework of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1943/81 of 30 June 1981 on a common measure to improve the processing and marketing conditions in the cattlefeed sector in Northern Ireland (3), an appropriation of 1,5 million ECU is available for 1986. To these amounts must be added credits recovered because of the cancellation of projects awarded aid in the past as well as appropriations carried forward, including that for special aid for pig slaughterhouses and pigmeat processing in the United Kingdom. The Commission has already awarded aid amounting to approximately 92 200 000 ECU (4). In accordance with Article 13 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77, 2 124 projects were submitted before 1 May 1986 through Member States or carried forward from 1985; 72 have been withdrawn. Of the 2 052 requests for aid remaining, 39 were considered inadmissable for consideration for aid because they did not meet the formal requirements of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 for one or other of the following reasons: — the financial contribution of the Member State was insufficient, —. the information contained in the request for aid was clearly inadequate and did not permit an examination of the conformity of the project with the requirements of the Regulation, — the projects did not lie in the field of application of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77, — the projects were not included in approved specific programmes. These findings were notified to the applicants concerned and to the relevant Member States. Of the 2 013 requests for aid considered to meet the formal requirements, the Commission decided not to award aid from the Fund to 22 projects which were not in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77. These decisions were notified to the Member States concerned as well as to the applicants. Among the 1 991 requests for aid remaining, considered to comply with the requirements of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77, 282 had already been awarded aid from the Fund. The 1 709 requests for aid remaining represent a total request for aid of more than 700 million ECU. O OJ No L 51, 23. 2. 1977, p. 1. (2) OJ No L 194, 17. 7. 1986, p. 4.

No C 74/4 Official Journal of the European Communities 21.3.87 Having consulted the Fund Committee on the financial aspects, particularly on the funds available, and having received the opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Structure, together with the opinion of the Standing Committee for the Fishing Industry in relation to projects in the fishing sector, the Commission has chosen, for the second tranche of 1986, 687 applications for aid representing an amount of 281 million ECU within the framework of Regulation 355/77 and two applications for aid in Northern Ireland representing an amount of 713 000 ECU. The projects chosen to receive aid, which are set out in the attached list, seem to the Commission to be most in the interest of the Community. In accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EEC) 355/77 and Article 10 of Regulation 1943/81, the decisions on the granting of aid from the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) to the projects indicated hereafter have been notified to the relevant Member States and also to the beneficiaries. 21. 3. 87 Official Journal of the European Communities No C 74/5 Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 BELGIUM Number Title of project 86.41.BL.001.0 Construction of a grain store at Marbaix-la-Tour (Hainaut) 86.41.BL.020.0 Modernization, rationalization and expansion of a seed production unit at Jodoigne (Brabant) 86.41.BL.023.1 Construction of a new unit for storing and processing malting barley at Marchovelette (Namur) 86.41.BL.023.2 Construction of export facilities at Beez (Namur) 86.41.BL.026.0 Modernization and restructuring of reception, storage, handling and marketing facilities for locally grown cereals at Estinnes-au-Mont (Hainaut) 86.41.BL.028.0 Expansion of a fish-processing plant at Ostend (West Flanders) 86.41.BL.033.0 Construction of a meat products factory at Waarschoot (East Flanders) 86.41.BL.052.0 Expansion of a pot plant commercial undertaking at Rumbeke-Roeselare (West Flanders) 86.41.BL.061.0 Modernization of a fish-processing plant at Zeebrugge (West Flanders) 86.41.BL.064.0 Construction of a vegetable-processing plant at Aalter (East Flanders) 86.41.BL.067.0 Construction of a potato store at Oostvleteren (West Flanders) 86.41.BL.068.0 Rationalization and expansion of an egg-packing station and egg products plant at Herk-de-Stad (Berbroek) (Limburg) 86.41.BL.071.0 Modernization and expansion of a fruit auction at Sint-Truiden (Limburg) 86.41.BL.072.0 Modernization and rationalization of a flax-processing plant at Ardooie (West Flanders) Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 DENMARK Number Title of project 86.41.DK.029.0 Building of chilling room and enlargement of filleting capacity at a fish-filleting plant in Hirtshals, Jutland 86.41.DK.032.0 Enlargement and rationalization of processing, filleting and freezing capacities at a fish-filleting factory in Ronne, Bornholm 86.41.DK.042.0 Enlargement and modernization of a fish-filleting factory in Nr.
