"Question No 48 by Alexandros Alavanos , which has been taken over by Mihail Papayannakis (): The regulation on tobacco, as last amended, makes provision for tobacco producers to buy back quotas allocated to other producers, who are leaving the sector, in order to improve their business and their financial position. However, the Commission's recent announcements and decisions concerning the phasing out of aid over three years have effectively scuppered the quota buy-back programme as tobacco producers cannot afford the outlay and additional investment required when they do not know whether tobacco subsidies will be available for the 7-8 years minimum period they need to recoup their costs. What guarantees can the Commission provide to induce producers to take part in the quota buy-back programme under Regulation (EC) 1636/98? Will the Commission use unallocated appropriations from the Tobacco Fund to finance studies into the social and economic situation which will arise in some regions, such as Aitolia-Akarnania and Thrace, as a result of changes in tobacco subsidies?"@en1
