THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2080/92 of 30 June 1992 instituting a Community aid scheme for forestry measures in agriculture (1), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Whereas, pursuant to Council Decision 88/377/EEC of 24 June 1988 concerning budget discipline (2), and in particular Article 6 thereof, the Commission must set up an effective early-warning system in order to ensure that the agricultural guideline is respected;

Whereas a reliable system must be established for the financial monitoring of the application of Regulation (EEC) No 2080/92, such system permitting reactions in the framework of the early-warning system for budget discipline and estimates of the trend in expenditure affecting future budgets as a result of the multiannual nature of certain commitments entered into under programmes approved under Regulation (EEC) No 2080/92 and resulting in expenditure to be charged to the Community budget over several years;

Whereas, to that end, the system of monitoring must be based on the individual undertakings entered into under the programmes approved under Regulation (EEC) No 2080/92 and on short-term forecasts updated regularly;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Forestry Committee,
