Transitional and Concluding Provisions. 259 (2) As assistance for compliance with the provisions of paragraph (3) of Article 109 after 1 January 2020, the Lander of Berlin, Bremen, Saarland, Saxony-Anhalt, and Schleswig-Holstein may receive, for the period 2011 to 2019, consolidation assistance from the federal budget in the global amount of 800 million euros annually. The respective amounts are 300 million euros for Bremen, 260 million euros for Saarland, and 80 million euros each for Berlin, Saxony-Anhalt, and Schleswig-Holstein. The assistance payments shall be allocated on the basis of an administrative agreement under the terms of a federal law requiring the consent of the Bundesrat.

The details, especially the annual steps to be taken to reduce financial deficits, the supervision of the reduction of fmancial deficits by the Stability Council, along with the consequences entailed in case of failure to carry out the step-by-step reduction, shall be regulated by a federal law requiring the consent of the Bundesrat and by an administrative agreement. There shall be no simultaneous granting of consolidation assistance and redevelopment assistance on the grounds of an extreme budgetary emergency. (3) The financial burden resulting from the granting of the consolidation assistance shall be borne equally by the Federation and the Lander, to be financed from their share of the value-added tax.
