This bi-annual EU-ASEAN Ministerial Meeting will be attended by representatives from all EU Member states as well as the 10Â ASEAN countries: Brunei, Burma/Myanmar, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

    [04] Commission publishes indicative figures on the distribution of direct farm aid in 2005

    The European Commission has made public indicative figures on the distribution of direct farm payments by size-class of aid received for the Financial Year 2005. The figures have been derived from the EAGGF (European Agricultural Guarantee and Guidance Fund) payment data received from the Member States. For the first time, new Member States are also included and the figures also reflect the situation after the CAP reforms of 2003 and 2004, which entered into force from 2005 onwards. These figures must also be regarded as purely indicative. Figures for 2002, 2003 and 2004 were made public earlier. The Commission will continue to publish such aggregated figures on a regular basis in the future. The figures are available on the internet at: <a href="http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/funding/index_en.htm">http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/funding/index_en.htm
