"The draft amending budget that this report approves relates to the mobilisation of the EU Solidarity Fund (EUSF) to mitigate the effects of flooding in Liguria and Tuscany, Italy, in October 2011. An amount of approximately EUR 18 million in commitment and payment appropriations has been established. This amending budget is necessary in order to include this adjustment in the 2012 budget. We voted in favour, as we agree that regions affected by natural disasters of this nature and others should be able to count on prompt EUSF support. The flooding that affected the regions of Liguria and Tuscany in October 2011 caused severe damage to homes, businesses and agriculture, and the disruption of major transport links and essential public infrastructure networks. As such, it is important that funding for reconstruction and damage cover be made available as soon as possible to support these populations."@en1
