lpv:translated text	"This report endorses the mobilisation of the European Union Solidarity Fund (EUSF) to assist three countries, Slovenia, the Czech Republic and Croatia, which in September 2010 were affected by severe rainfall followed by flooding that caused huge losses. In some cases these forced people to abandon their homes and resulted in significant damage to public infrastructure, businesses, homes and agriculture. As the total losses remain below the normal threshold for the mobilisation of the EUSF, the request was examined on the basis of the criteria for an ‘extraordinary regional disaster’, set out in the relevant regulation. In May and June 2010, two of these countries, namely the Czech Republic and Croatia, had suffered exactly the same disasters, which led to the mobilisation of the EUSF, as the criteria for classifying the event as a ‘major natural disaster’ were fulfilled. In view of these disasters and their impact on the land, the economy and the people of these countries, we of course believe that it is vital and necessary to mobilise this support, and we therefore voted for the report. We cannot, however, neglect to stress that much remains to be done in the area of disaster prevention, including the many proposals that we have submitted here, which the Commission is delaying putting into practice."@en1
