In order to ensure continuity of payments during the phasing-in of the direct payments in the new Member States, this report establishes the financial provisions for the transitional year 2013 and thereby sets the net ceilings for the direct payments for the 2013 calendar year. It is important for me, as an Austrian, that the special situation of the high-altitude alpine area, as outermost regions, is sufficiently taken into account. This is the case, and therefore I have nothing against the report.
