Mrs McGuinness, as I said, the Council’s assessment is that the application of this Regulation, in other words the use of the Solidarity Fund, has been effective. It was certainly an excellent suggestion to set up a fund to help Member States deal with any natural or other disasters as this was something that did not exist before. This fund is certainly helpful as such disasters put Member States in a very particular situation of difficulty and need.
There should always ideally be the possibility of asking and applying for more. We must of course look at this issue realistically, but also ambitiously. I am sure that the Council, at the appropriate time and if proposed by the Commission, will not fail to assess this possibility. However, for the time being we have the legislative framework that we have and, by using this, we can work realistically, welcoming the creation of this fund and the effective role that it has played, which in fact proves that this initiative is justified."@en1
