"Draft amending budget No 7/2011 to the general budget for 2011 aims to mobilise the EU Solidarity Fund (EUSF) to the tune of EUR 38 million in commitment and payment appropriations in order to mitigate the effects of the earthquake affecting Murcia, Spain, and of the flooding in the Veneto region of Italy. The purpose of the Draft amending budget is to formally enter this budgetary adjustment into the 2011 budget. The quick release of financial assistance through the EUSF for those affected by natural catastrophes is of great importance, and it is therefore of great concern that in the case of the flooding in the Veneto region, the mobilisation of the EUSF will only be effective 13 months after the torrential rainfall that occurred at the end of October 2010. It is necessary that all parties in the Member States, both at local and regional level, as well as national authorities, improve the assessment of needs and coordination for future potential applications to the EUSF with a view to accelerating, as much as possible, the mobilisation of the EUSF. With regard to the specific cases of Spain and Italy, the two branches of the budgetary authority are taking their respective positions with the utmost urgency in order to guarantee a quick delivery of assistance to the affected regions."@en1
