2.3 OUTSTANDING COMMITMENTS FROM THE PROGRAMMING<br />

PERIOD 2007-2013<br />

The outstanding commitments for the 2007-2013 period have increased by EUR 7.3 billion<br />

(6%) to about EUR 131.7 billion in 2012 (compared to EUR 124.4 billion in 2011). Thus, the<br />

increase of RAL slowed down further as compared to the increases of EUR 11.4 billion (10%)<br />

in 2011 and EUR 16.4 billion (17%) in 2010. The increase of the RAL could have been<br />

limited even further if the ability for the Commission to honour payment claims received late<br />

in the year had not been limited by a lack of payment appropriations. Despite the EUR 4.4<br />

billion reinforcement of payment appropriations through amending budget no 6 (AB6), EUR<br />

16.2 billion worth of valid payment claims remained unpaid at the end of 2012.<br />
