"I voted in favour of this European Parliament report because the Commission proposes to mobilise the European Solidarity Fund in favour of Italy on the basis of point 26 of the interinstitutional agreement of 17 May 2006. This agreement allows mobilisation of the fund within the annual ceiling of EUR 1 billion. This is the first proposal to mobilise the fund in 2012. Alongside this proposal to mobilise the Solidarity Fund in favour of Italy, the Commission has presented a draft amending budget in order to enter in the 2012 budget the corresponding commitment and payment appropriations. Italy applied for assistance from the fund following the flooding that affected the regions of Liguria and Tuscany in October 2011, causing severe damage to residential homes, businesses and agriculture and the disruption of major transport links and essential public infrastructure networks. The disaster has been qualified as of natural origin and therefore falls within the field of application of the Solidarity Fund. The Commission has confirmed that this application complies with the eligibility criteria and has proposed mobilising the EU Solidarity Fund for commitment and payment appropriations."@en1
