"I voted in favour of the reports by Francesca Balzani. Following flooding in Liguria and Tuscany, Italy applied for assistance to the European Union; the disaster, being of natural origin, falls within the scope of the EU Solidarity Fund (EUSF). I would remind you that the Solidarity Fund should be mobilised mainly in cases of major natural disasters with serious repercussions on the living conditions, environment or economy of one or more regions of a Member State. The conditions in the affected areas worsened, as always happens in these situations, because of the tragedy of the lives lost, the large number of wounded people, the families who lost everything and the very serious damage to homes, businesses, agriculture, transport and infrastructures. In these regions, the use of the EUR 18 million released by the fund will therefore help our fellow citizens to regain the peace of mind that they have sadly lost. Finally, let me congratulate the volunteers of the Italian Civil Protection Agency who, in those weeks, as well as currently in Emilia and Lombardy and as always in the past, have shown professionalism and humanity."@en1
