17 A. BUDGETARY OUTTURN /. Introduction Amounts received in 211 comprise: net traditional own resources (customs duties and sugar levies) established by 27 Member States from November 21 to October 211, pursuant to Articles 2 and 6 of Regulation No 115/2 O; they are entered in the Commission's accounts with the Treasury or body appointed by each Member State no later than the first working day after the 19th of the second month following the month during which the entitlement was established, in accordance with Article 1(1) of Regulation No 115/2; monthly payments of VAT and GNI based own resources, including the UK correction and the gross reduction for Netherlands and Sweden, according to the sums entered in the budget. Under Article 1(3) of Regulation No 115/2, Member States enter these amounts in national currencies on the first working day of each month at the exchange rate of the of the last day of quotation of the year preceding the budget year; - the balance of VAT-based own resources for 21 and the adjustments made to the VAT own resources balances for earlier years J**^ These adjustments are the result of the controls carried out by Commission staff under Article 11 of Regulation No 1553/89; - the balance of GNl-based own resources for 21 and the adjustments made to the GNP/GNI-based own resources balances for earlier years, in accordance with Article 2(2) of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1287/23; surpluses accruing from the preceding financial year; miscellaneous revenue including deductions from staff salaries, revenue accruing from the administrative operation of the institutions, contributions and refunds in connection with European Union (EU) agreements and programs, interest on late payments and fines, and revenue accruing in connection with borrowing and lending operations. (1) OJ L 13,

18 II. Own resources The forecasts and outturn for own resources in 211 are shown in the table below: Title Chapter Heading Final Budget 211 Outturn Difference Percentage 1 Own resources (1) (2) (3) = (2)-(1) (4) = (2)/(1) sugar levies -custom duties -own resources accruing from VAT -own resources based on GNI -correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom -gross reduction in the annual GNI-based contribution granted to the Netherlands and Sweden ,75% 1,62% 99,65% 99,73% Title 1 - Sub-total ,89% 1. Traditional own resources The European Union's traditional own resources are made up of customs duties and sugar levies. Outturn of traditional own resources for 211 The overall outturn of traditional own resources for 211 totals EUR million (net amount excluding collection costs). Thus they represent 1.66% of the final estimate. During 211 the forecasts entered in the Budget 211 were first modified in the Amending Budget no 4/211. This was a consequence of the spring ACOR meeting for the forecasts revision, with a net increase of EUR 1 9 million. Then the estimate was adjusted at the end of the year on the basis of the actual trend. Therefore a decrease of EUR 1 2 million was entered through the amending budget no 6/211 approved by the Parliament on 1 December 211.

19 Level of traditional own resources (25-211) The level of import duties reflects essentially the combination of fluctuations in the value of imports from outside the EU and changes in the common tariff, which has been lowered on many occasions following the negotiations within the World Trade Organisation (WTO), and specific agreements granting tariff preferences to certain trading partners or to certain products. The level thus depends also on the general economic situation, the level of world prices and the impact of exchange rates. The collection of sugar levies relates to the principle of the financial liability of producers in the common organisation of the sugar market (2). Year Sugar levies (net amount) EUR million % change 695,1 151,6-3,7 77,9 131,6 145,6 131,7-78,19-12,25-245,86-81,41 1,64-9,55 Customs duties (net amount) EUR million % change , , , , , , , 11,29 11,61 -,17-13,14 7,76 7,3 Total TOR (net amount) EUR million % change 14.63, , , , , , ,7 6,86 1,28 4,28-15,94 7,79 7,14 The pace at which traditional own resources are collected is in accordance with the arrangements governing each category. As far as the sugar levies are concerned they were entered mainly in March. Customs duties, on the other hand, are paid on monthly basis over the entire year. For 211 as a whole, traditional own resources were 7.14 % up on 21. (2) See Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/27 of22 October 27 (OJ L 299, , p. 1).

20 a) Sugar levies (1) Production charge Sugar production charges totalled EUR 123 million in 211. They correspond to the levies charged in accordance with Article 51 of Council Regulation (EC) no 1234/27. (2) Sugar storage levies The outturn concerns amounts outstanding from the past. The amount recorded has been negligible. (3) Surplus amount The total amount collected in 211 was EUR 9 million. These levies were charged by Member States to the undertakings in accordance with Article 64 of Council Regulation (EC) no 1234/27. CS)

21 b) Customs duties Revenue from customs duties was EUR million, 1.6 % of the estimate. The budget estimates were revised upwards in amending budget no 4/211 (3). The adjustment of the estimates was based on the new macroeconomic forecasts of spring 211, more optimistic than the previous ones, of the Directorate-General for Economic and Financial Affairs (they were increased by EUR 1 9 million). However the estimate was adjusted at the end of the year on the basis of the entitlements cashed. Therefore a decrease of EUR 1 2 million was budgeted. The 211 custom duties receipts are 7.3 % above the 21 outturn. This is explained mainly by a significant increase for EU-27 of 17.7% in imports in value terms in 211 (November 21 - October 211) compared with 21 (November 29 - October 21) that is rebalanced by a decrease in the average tariff (1,32% in 211 compared to 1,45% in 21). c) Collection costs ^ Article 2(3) of Council Decision 27/436/EC, Euratom of 7 June 27(4) on the system of the European Communities' own resources (hereafter, ORD 27) states that Member States retain, by way of collection costs, 25 % of the amounts of traditional own resources to be paid in accordance with Article 2(1 )(a). Also according to Article 1(3) of the same decision, for amounts that should have been paid before 28 February 21, Member States continue to retain 1%. From 23 on, traditional own resources are entered net in the accounts pursuant to Article 42 of the Financial Regulation. By way of information total collection costs in 211 are estimated at EUR million. (3) Updated custom duties forecasts were adopted at the 151st meeting of the Advisory Committee on Own Resources on 17 May 211 (ACOR). (4) OJ L 163,

22 2. VAT, GNI, UK Correction and Gross Reduction calls for funds Article 1(3) of Regulation No 115/2 establishes the rules for the entries of these contributions in the Commission's accounts. VAT, GNI, UK correction and the gross reduction contributions are paid normally in twelfths during the year. Nevertheless as a result of specific needs of paying EAGF expenditure and depending on the EU's cash position, Member States may be invited by the Commission to bring forward by one or two months in the first quarter of the financial year the entry of one-twelfth or a fraction of onetwelfth of the amounts in the budget. In 211 the rhythm of monthly call for funds for the first trimester was the following: January: 1 twelfth February: 2.7 twelfths March:.6 twelfth Total first quarter: 4.3 twelfths The normal rhythm in the number of called twelfths was reached at the beginning of August. Ю 3. Own resources accruing from VAT ^ The VAT own resources outturn was % of the estimate. The slight difference is accounted for by the difference between the euro rates used for the conversion into national currency of the budget amounts (provided for in Article 1(3) of Regulation No 115/2) and the rates applicable when the amounts are actually entered in the accounts. The ORD 27 provided for the application of a uniform rate valid for all Member States to the harmonised Value Added Tax (VAT) assessment bases determined according to EU rules. This rate was fixed at.3 % from 1 January 27. However, for the period , the rate of call of the VAT-based own resource for Austria has been fixed at.225 %, for Germany at.15 % and for the Netherlands and Sweden at.1 %.

23 Amending budget no 4/211 adopted on 28 September 211 changed the VAT own resources figures entered in the initial 211 budget, in particular to take account of the revision of the VAT bases adopted at the 151 st meeting of the Advisory Committee on Own Resources on 17 May 211 (ACOR). The use of revised forecasts for the own resources bases, introduced for the first time when supplementary and amending budget no 1/98 was adopted, is designed to improve the accuracy of the Member States' contributions during the budget year. The following table shows the changes of the budgeted amounts during the year; Budget / Amending Budget Budget 211 (initial) AB 4/211 Date of adoption 15/12/21 28/9/211 VAT-based own resources amounts in euro Difference with previous budget Own resources based on GNI W The outturn rate for the additional resource was % of the budget estimate. The difference is accounted for, as with the VAT resource, by exchange rate differences. The amount of GNI-based own resources entered in the 211 budget was modified several times during the year. The main modifications took place through amending budget no 2/211, that incorporated the budgetary surplus for 21 and through amending budget no 4/211, which revised the estimates of customs duties, VAT bases and GNI bases (5) and finally in amending budget no 6/211 to revise estimates both in revenue and expenditure side. (5) Bases adopted at the 151 st meeting of the Advisory Committee on Own Resources on 17 May 211 (ACOR).

24 The following table shows the changes of the budgeted amounts during the year: Budget / Amending Budget Budget 211 (initial) AB 2/211 AB 4/211 AB 6/211 Date of adoption 15/12/21 5/7/211 28/9/211 1/12/211 GNI-based own resources amounts in euro Difference with previous budget Correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (UK Correction) Under the ORD 27 on the system of the European Communities' own resources, the United Kingdom is granted a correction in respect of its budgetary imbalances. The amount calculated for the budget 211 concerned the correction for 21, the definitive correction for 27 and an update for the definitive correction for 26. The basic data for the amounts of the corrections can be found in Tables 36, 37 and 38. Correction for year 26, still governed by the 2 Own Resources Decision, and the definitive correction for year 27 are budgeted in title 3 while the correction for year 21 is budgeted in title 1. The budgeted amount totals zero. Nevertheless EUR 51.9 million outturn in 211 in title 1 is accounted for by the difference between the euro rates used for the conversion into national currency of the budget amounts (provided for in Article 1(3) of Regulation No 115/2) and the rates applicable when the amounts are actually entered in the accounts.

25 6. Gross reduction in the annual GNI-based contribution granted to the Netherlands and Sweden According to ORD 27, the Netherlands and Sweden benefit from a gross reduction in their annual GNI-based contributions for the period ORD 27 specifies the amount of this reduction (which has to be adapted for current prices) and indicates that this reduction shall be granted after financing of the correction mechanism in favour of the UK (UK correction). This reduction is to be financed by all Member States pursuant to Article 1 (9) of Regulation No 115/2, as amended by Regulation No 15/29 implementing ORD 27. The gross reduction for the Netherlands and Sweden, which equals respectively EUR 65 million and EUR 15 million in 24 prices, is adjusted to current prices by applying the GDP deflator for the EU expressed in Euro. The budgeted amount totals zero. However (minus) EUR 1.4 million outturn is accounted for, as with the UK correction, by exchange rate differences. Ю Details of the payments can be found in table 3 column 7.

26 ƒ//. Surpluses, balances and adjustments The surpluses, balances and adjustments available for 211 are set out in the table below: Title 3 Chapter Heading Surpluses, balances and adjustments - surplus available from the preceding financial year (21) - balances and adjustments of balances based on VAT (21) - balances and adjustments of balances based on VAT (years 1998 to 29) - balances and adjustments of balances based on GNI (21) - balances and adjustments of balances based on GNI/GNP (years 2 to 29) - adjustment relating to the non-participation of certain Member States in F&S&J policies - result of the definitive calculation of the financing of the UK correction (26&27) - intermediate calculation of financing of UK correction FINAL BUDGET p.m. Outturn Title 3-Total on 1. Surplus available from the preceding financial year (21) The 21 surplus totals EUR million. A detailed table of this past surplus can be found in the final annual accounts of the European Union Financial year 21 Part II Consolidated reports on implementation of the budget of the European Union and explanatory notes (OJ C 332, , p.11 6 ). (6) The result of implementation of the Budget for the EU is of EUR million, of which EFTA amounts total EUR 9 million in 21

27 2. Balances and adjustment of balances based on VAT a) Balances and adjustment of balances based on VAT (VAT balance for 21) For VAT own resources, Article 7(1) of Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89 of 29 May 1989(7) provides that before 31 July the Member States must send the Commission a statement of the total amount of the VAT resources base for the previous calendar year. Pursuant to Article 1(4) of Regulation No 115/2, each Member State is debited with an amount calculated from the information contained in the said statement by applying the uniform rate adopted for the previous financial year and credited with the 12 payments made during that financial year. However, the VAT resources base to which the above rate is applied may not exceed 5% of its GNP/GNI as provided for in the own resources Decision. The Commission establishes the balances and informs the Member States in time for them to enter them in the accounts opened with the national Treasuries on the first working day of December of the same year. The VAT balance for the previous year, in this case 21, takes into account the differences between the VAT amounts entered in the budget in the light of the macroeconomic forecasts of the VAT bases produced in spring 21 for amending budget no 4/21, and the amounts due by reference to the real VAT bases declared by the Member States in July 211 (see Table 12, column no 1). This is the difference between actual outturn and estimates. >- The VAT balances for 21 totals EUR million. Details of the amounts entered for each Member State are given in Table "^ 6. Details of the calculation can be found in Table 24. (7) Regulation on the definitive uniform arrangements for the collection of own resources accruingfromvalue added tax (OJ L 155, ).

28 b) Balances and adjustment of balances based on VAT (VAT balance for 1998 to 29) Article 1(5) of Regulation No 115/2 provides that any corrections to the VAT base for earlier years under Article 9(1) of Regulation No 1553/89 will give rise to an adjustment of the balances. Article 1(8) of Regulation No 115/2 states that any correction of the bases is to be booked to the financial year in which it takes place. These are corrections of VAT bases agreed by the Commission and the Member States pursuant to the VAT regulations. Any time during the four years after the end of a financial year, new points can be notified either by the Commission or by the Member States. In 211 corrections were made in respect of many years going back as far as 1998, to settle points notified in time but which could not be cleared up earlier. In accordance with Article 9 of Regulation No 1553/89, these corrections were grouped together in a cumulative statement at 31 July 211. The settlement of a number of outstanding issues with certain Member States led to an adjustment of balances for earlier years ( ). As a result of this EUR 58.7 million were entered in the Commission accounts. ^ Table 6 gives details of the balances entered for each Member State. Also this table contains amounts recovered in 211 that were outstanding from previous years as well as amounts provisionally made available as a result of individual call for funds. The balances were entered in the Commission's accounts for the first working day of December 211. Tables 25 to 35 give details of the calculations sent in the framework of the annual balances. OO

29 3. Balances and adjustment of balances based on GNI a) Balances and adjustment of balances based on GNI (GNI balance for 21) Under Article 1(6) of Regulation No 115/2, each Member State, on the basis of figures for the aggregate GNP/GNI supplied by 22 September in accordance with Article 2(2) of Regulation No 1287/23 (8), is debited with an amount calculated by applying to the GNI the rate adopted for the previous financial year and credited with the twelve payments made during that year. The Commission establishes the balances and informs the Member States in time for them to enter them in the accounts opened with the national Treasuries on the first working day of December of the same year. The GNI balance for the previous year, in this case 21, takes into account the differences between the GNI amounts entered in the budget in the light of the macroeconomic forecasts of the GNI aggregate produced in spring 21 for amending budget no 4/21, and the amounts calculated on the basis of the real GNI bases declared by the Member States in September 211 (see Table 13, column no 1), and taking into account the opinion of the GNI Committee of October 211. This is the difference between actual outturn and estimates. ^ The balances for 21 total EUR million. Details of the amounts entered for each Member State are given in Table 8. Details of the calculation can be found in Table 14. (8) OJL 181,

30 b) Balances and adjustment of balances based on GNI (GNI balances for 2 to 29) Under Article 1(7) of Regulation No 115/2, any changes to the GNP/GNI of previous financial years pursuant to Article 2(2) of Regulation No 1287/23, subject to Article 5 thereof, give rise for each Member State concerned to an adjustment to the balance. The Commission informs the Member States of these adjustments so that they can enter them on the first working day of December of the same year. After 3 September of the fourth year following a given financial year, changes to GNP/GNI are no longer taken into account, except on points notified within this time limit either by the Commission or by the Member State. The Member States entered a total of EUR million in the Commission accounts in respect of these adjustments. Table 8 gives details of the balances entered for each Member State, while Tables 15 to 23 give details of the calculations. Table 13 shows the updated bases used for calculating the balances. CO 4. Adjustment for the impact of the non-participation of certain Member States in the justice and home affairs O policy Article 3 of the Protocol on the position of Denmark and Article 5 of the Protocol on the position of the United Kingdom and Ireland annexed to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union grants full exemption to these countries from financing of some specific areas of freedom, security and justice policies, with the exception of the related administrative costs. Article 1a of Regulation No 115/2 stipulates the mechanism for the adjustment. Under this item Denmark, Ireland and United Kingdom have been reimbursed. Table 4 gives details of the amounts entered for each Member State in 211.

31 5. Definitive calculation of the financing of the UK correction (26 and 27) In addition to the definitive calculation of the amount of the correction for the United Kingdom, the definitive financing arrangements are also calculated. The result of this calculation is the difference between what each Member State should have paid (or received in the case of the United Kingdom) for the final amount of the 27 correction and what the Member State actually paid (received) as a result of the entry in the budget of the correction for 27 in amending budget no 5/28 and its update in amending budget no 3/29. This item also includes a correction of an overestimation of the 26 correction made in the financial year 21. The budgeted amount totals zero. Nevertheless (minus) EUR 46.4 million outturn in 211 is accounted for by the difference between the euro rates used for the conversion into national currency of the budget amounts (provided for in Article 1(3) of Regulation No 115/2) and the rates applicable when the amounts are actually entered in the accounts. CO

32 IV. Other revenue 1. Revenue accruing from persons working with the institutions and with other EU bodies (Title 4) Title 4 of revenue, which comprises the taxes on staff salaries and the contributions to the pension scheme, came to 98.6 % of the forecast amount. It also includes the proceeds from the special levy on staff salaries as well as the remnant from the old temporary contribution, totalling EUR 43.2 million. 2. Revenue accruing from the administrative operation of the institutions (Title 5) The Title 5 outturn totalled EUR 24.3 million. This comprises the proceeds from the sale of movable and immovable property, proceeds from hiring and letting, revenue from investments or loans granted, and bank interest. It also comprises other contributions and refunds connected with the administrative operation of the institutions. 3. Contributions and refunds in connection with Union agreements and programmes (Title 6) OŮ Ю Title 6 "Revenue, contributions and refunds in connection with Union agreements and programmes", totals an amount of EUR 2 443,8 million. The principal source of the revenue was the revenue concerning the EAGF and EAFRD (and in particular the clearance of accounts and irregularities), the participation of third countries in research programs and other contributions and refunds to Union programs/activities. A substantial part of the title is made of earmarked revenue, which typically gives rise to the entering of additional appropriations in the expenditure side. 4. Interest on late payments and fines (Title 7) In Title 7 (interest on late payments and fines) a total of EUR million was collected during the year (EUR million in interest on late payments and interest onfinesas well as EUR million in fines).

34 В. CLAIMS /. Own resources established and still to be recovered Details by Member State of entitlements established and still to be recovered at the end of the year, concerning traditional own resources (amounts net of collection costs), as well as other outstanding own resources are given in Table 1. In the field of traditional own resources, the amounts shown in the table are the financial consequences of the inspections carried out by the Commission and the Court of Auditors. As far as the VAT and GNI entitlements are concerned, EUR 62 million were cashed in 211, cancelling the debt of a Member State for the VAT balances and partially the outstanding amount for the GNI balances. The GNI entitlements, still open refer to the adjustments of balances for the period //. В account (separate account) The separate account (B account) was introduced in 199 under Article 6(2)(b) of Regulation No 1552/89 (now Article 6(3)(b) of Regulation No 115/2, the content of which is still the same). It records traditional own resources which have been established but not yet recovered by the Member States. These amounts are either not guaranteed or are being challenged by the debtors.

35 Amounts appearing in the separate account from 25 to 211 are shown in the table below: Year Sugar and Isoglucose levies gross amounts 1% Customs duties gross amounts 1% Total own resources gross amounts 1% Annual variation in balances to be recovered gross amounts 1% EUR million 12,7 36,7 37,4 37,2 37,8 42,7 41,5 % change 189, 1,9 -,5 1,6 13, - 2,8 EUR million 1 868, , , , ,1 1 67, ,3 % change - 5,8-1,1-5,6 -,5 2,2-1,7 EUR million 1 881, , 1 776,9 1 68, , , ,8 % change -4,5-1,1-5,5 -,5 2,5-1,7 EUR million - 24, - 85,2-19,1-96,8-8,2 4,9-29, % change on total year n-1-4,5-1,1-5,5 -,5 2,5 - U СЛ Entitlements in the separate account totalled EUR million at end-211, a decrease of 1.7% on the amount entered at the end of the previous year. Details of the net amounts by Member State are shown in Table 11.

36 The amounts established, cancelled and recovered in the separate account from 25 to 211, as an absolute figure and as a percentage of the balance at the end of the previous year, are given in the table below. Amounts established, cancelled and recovered in the separate account (gross amounts = 1%) Year 1% EUR million Established %of total TOR at year n-1 1% EUR million Cancelled 9 %of total TOR at yearn-1 1% EUR million Recovered %of total TOR at year n % % % % 44 21% 19 1% to % 27 15% % % 35 17% % % 174 1% % % 25 12% % % 23 12% % (9) Cancelled amounts include corrections and amounts which cannot be made available according to Articles 8 and 17 (2) of Regulation 115/2

37 C. ESTIMATES OF AMOUNTS RECEIVABLE Other potential claims on the Member States for indeterminate amounts have also been recorded in the Commission accounts as 'memorandum items' in accordance with Article 7(1) of the Financial Regulation. They concern traditional own resources, reservations relating to VAT and GNP/GNI and interest on late payments. The VAT and GNP/GNI reservations generally cover a number of years. These 'memorandum item' claims are cancelled and replaced by recovery orders for specific amounts as soon as they have been identified as being certain, of a fixed amount and due. The number of such 'memorandum item' entries at end-211 is shown in the following table. CO

38 Estimates of amounts receivable entered as 'memorandum items' Member State Belgium Bulgaria Czech Republic Denmark Germany Estonia Ireland Greece Spain France Italy Cyprus Latvia Lithuania Luxembourg Hungary Malta Netherlands Austria Poland Portugal Romania Slovenia Slovakia Finland Sweden United Kingdom Total 27 MS Traditional own resources VAT balances GNP/GNI balances Late-payment interest TOTAL GO

39 I. Traditional own resources 'Memorandum item' estimates of amounts receivable relating to traditional own resources mainly concern points identified during inspections conducted in the Member States by the Commission and the Court of Auditors. Pending either replies from the Member States, or more detailed analysis, an estimate of an amount receivable is made as a 'memorandum item'. II. Reservations relating to VAT and GNP/GNI own resources When conducting its controls of VAT and GNP/GNl-based own resources, the Commission sometimes raises "reservations" on certain elements of the bases on which the resources are collected from Member States. The bases in question are as follows: > for the VAT resource, the annual statements of the uniform base which is calculated by each Member State in accordance with Council Regulation No 1553/89; > for the GNP/GNI resource, the statistical aggregates representing gross national product/income for the year at market prices, drawn U P by each Member State in accordance with the EU rules laid down in Directive 89/13 and Regulation No 1287/23. ^ In entering these reservations the Commission asks the Member States concerned either to apply the relevant EU rules correctly, or to correct the shortcomings or imperfections in its calculation methods, or to clarify certain specific calculations. Member States are also entitled to enter their own reservations concerning the own resources bases. A 'memorandum item' entry is made in respect of the reservations entered by the Commission.

40 1. Reservations relating to VAT at At the end of 211 a total of 158 reservations were still awaiting a solution; i.e. 2 reservations more than the previous year. These reservations relate to very specific aspects of the method used by the Member States when determining the elements and calculating the amounts to be included in the VAT base. As the table below shows, over the last six years 289 reservations have been entered, either by the Commission, or by the Member States, while 242 have been cleared, after the Commission and the Member State concerned agreed on solutions to the underlying problems. Year Reservations notified Reservations cleared Reservations outstanding at year-end o TOTAL

41 2. Reservations relating to GNP/GNI at The reservations entered in respect of the GNP/GNI-based resource relate exclusively to problems with the methods used for determining the national accounts. Solving these problems usually requires lengthy and difficult work for national statistical institutes and Eurostat. Over the last six years 27 reservations have been entered, either by the Commission, or by the Member States, while 61 have been cleared, after the Commission and the Member State concerned agreed on solutions to the underlying problems. At the end of 211, 29 GNP/GNI reservations were still outstanding. Year Reservations notified Reservations cleared Reservations outstanding at year-end TOTAL 27 61

42 III. Late-payment interest If it is determined that traditional own resources or VAT or GNP/GNI resources may have been made available late, a 'memorandum item' entry is also made concerning the amount receivable of interest pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation No 115/2. Once the principal has been made available, the interest is calculated and requested from the Member States, and the estimates are replaced by recovery orders for the amounts concerned. Details of the payments made by Member States for this item can be found in table 41. is3
