A total of €115.2 million of EU agricultural policy funds unduly spent by Member States is being claimed back by the European Commission under the so-called clearance of accounts procedure
As some of these amounts have already been recovered from the Member States, the financial impact is somewhat lower at €54.3 million. This money returns to the EU budget because of non-compliance with EU rules or inadequate control procedures on agricultural expenditure. Member States are responsible for paying out and checking expenditure under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), and the Commission is required to ensure that Member States have made correct use of the funds.
