(2)  Commission Decision 2002/799/EC (*) lists the programmes for the eradication and monitoring of certain animal diseases and the programmes of checks aimed at the prevention of zoonoses qualifying for a financial contribution from the Community in 2003. That Decision also sets out the proposed rate and maximum amount of the contribution for each programme. (3)  Commission Decision 2002/943/EC (}) approves the programmes listed in Decision 2002/799/EC and lays down the maximum amounts of the Community's finan- cial contribution. (4)  The Commission has analysed the reports forwarded by the Member States on the expenditures of the programmes. The results of that analysis show that certain Member States will not utilise their full allocation for 2003 while others will spend in excess of the allo- cated amount. (5) The Community's financial contribution to certain of those programmes therefore needs to be adjusted. It is appropriate to reallocate funding from programmes of Member States which are not using their full allocation to those that are exceeding it. The reallocation should be based on the most recent information on the expendi- ture actually incurred by the concerned Member States. (6)  Decisions 2002/799/EC and 2002/943/EC should be amended accordingly. (") OJ L 224,18.9.1990, p. 19. Decision as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 806/2003 (O] L 122, 16.5.2003, p. 1).
