(6)The amounts excluded from Union financing by this Decision should also take into account any reductions or suspensions in accordance with Article 41 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 due to the fact that such reductions or suspensions are of a provisional nature and without prejudice to decisions taken pursuant to Articles 51 or 52 of that Regulation.
(7)As regards the cases covered by this Decision, the assessment of the amounts to be excluded on grounds of non-compliance with Union law was notified by the Commission to the United Kingdom in a summary report on the subjectnote.
(8)This Decision is without prejudice to any financial conclusions that the Commission may draw from the judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union in cases pending on 21 September 2022,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1#
The amounts set out in the Annex and related to expenditure incurred by the United Kingdom’s accredited paying agencies and declared under the EAGF and the EAFRD shall be excluded from Union financing.
