This increment, which has been added by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/851Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/851 of 27 March 2015 amending Annexes II, III and VI to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing rules for direct payments to farmers under support schemes within the framework of the common agricultural policy (OJ L 135, 2.6.2015, p. 8). to the national ceiling of Croatia set in Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 is 700000 EUR in 2015.(3)In accordance with Article 20(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, the Commission has to set the share to be applied to this increment, with a view to including the resulting amount in the special de-mining reserve for the purpose of allocating payment entitlements for the de-mined areas. That share has to be calculated on the basis of the ratio between the ceiling for the basic payment scheme for 2015 and the national ceiling for that year set out in Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 and without taking into account the increment added by Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/851.(4)For each Member State implementing the basic payment scheme provided for in Chapter 1 of Title III of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, the annual national ceiling referred to in Article 22(1) of that Regulation for 2015 has to be set by the Commission by deducting from the annual national ceiling set out in Annex II to that Regulation the ceilings fixed in accordance with Articles 42, 47, 49, 51 and 53 of that Regulation.

For the sake of clarity, it is appropriate to set this maximum amount for each Member State.(11)For each Member State granting voluntary coupled support provided for in Chapter 1 of Title IV of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 in 2015, the Commission has to set the annual national ceiling referred to in Article 53(7) of that Regulation for 2015 on the basis of the percentage notified by the relevant Member State pursuant to Article 54(1) of that Regulation.(12)Concerning the year 2015, the implementation of direct support schemes provided for in Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 started on 1 January 2015.
