The financial perspective set out in Annex I to the Interinstitutional Agreement on budgetary discipline and improvement of the budgetary procedure as revised by Decision 2003/430/EC hereinafter referred to as the ‘financial perspective’, should therefore be modified to take into account the effect of ‘modulation’ for the year 2006.

The financial perspective for the European Union, in 1999 prices, is set out in tables 1a and 1b in the Annex. 2\. The corresponding financial perspective resulting from the technical adjustment for 2005, in line with movements in gross national income (GNI) and prices, is set out in tables 2a and 2b in the Annex.
