". It is unfortunate that the compromise adopted on forest fire prevention and financing for the Forest Focus programme did not live up to the rapporteur’s original proposals, which we supported. Now, after the vote in plenary, the compromise has diminished the overall report, which contained deeper and more wide-ranging amendments on monitoring and developing forest fire prevention measures. As we know, the aim of the compromise adopted is to ensure fruitful negotiations with the Commission and the Council, but the fact is that the funding for the programme has now been slashed by EUR 6 million, whereas an increase of EUR 15 million was originally proposed. It is also unfortunate that the financing of prevention measures has fallen below the levels required and has no clear mandate. Bearing in mind the disaster of the summer’s forest fires and the need to ensure that there is enough funding to preserve the forest legacy of the European Union, the reservations of the Council and of some national groupings within the European Parliament are incomprehensible. This compromise is a far cry from the position adopted by the European Parliament in its resolution of 4 September 2003, on the effects of the summer heat wave."@en1
