lpv:spoken text	"May I thank the Council for its very brief response, though I had been hoping for a little more. The floods in Bangladesh, and I have seen them, come nearly every year, but this year have caused some USD 2.2 billion damage. This is a huge amount of flood damage: the European Union has very kindly sent EUR 4 million in aid. I know that the Netherlands, with its long experience of beating back floodwaters at home, already supports considerable projects in Bangladesh, but I wonder what more can be done in the future. Some 36 million people have been flooded, which is more than the population of the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark and Ireland put together. Flooding in the Low Countries of Europe is not permitted to get out of hand: the Dutch Government has made great efforts to fight back. They do a great deal already in Bangladesh, but I wondered if we could know a bit more of what the plans are for the future."@en1
