lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I believe that the first thing we have to do – as I said in the joint meeting of the Committees on Foreign Affairs, Development and Budgets – is to express our recognition of the reaction of the European institutions, and in particular the Commission, which we so often criticise and which on this occasion I believe has been a match for the serious circumstances and the example offered by civil society. I believe that the most urgent thing at the moment is to try to help the victims who still need water, food and hospitals and who need communications to be re-established. Furthermore, as Commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner said in her speech, we must now produce a rehabilitation and reconstruction plan in which we should mobilise a whole series of budgetary resources, in particular additional resources, as Mr van den Berg quite rightly said a moment ago. I believe that the European Union has acted properly; now we have to establish an effective method for helping the victims. Mr President, I believe another particularly important point – and I would ask the Commissioner to communicate this comment to the Commissioner responsible for Transport – is that it is incredible that at European level there is still no common system for the prevention of tidal waves. This is a very cheap system and I believe that the European Union, in the field of aid to the developing countries, the ACP countries and the countries of the Mediterranean rim, could offer it in a genuinely significant manner in order to prevent that kind of disaster. One of the elements, Mr President, of the draft resolution Parliament is going to approve tomorrow that I believe to be correct is its reference to the solidarity demonstrated by the local populations and the solidarity and support they have offered to the families from the European Union who have fallen victim to this tragedy."@en1
