"First of all, I would like thank my colleague from the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament, Mr Swoboda, for his proposal to include France within the scope of this resolution, following the floods that have taken place this week in the south of the country and which have claimed the lives of more than 25 people. Given the extent of the material and human cost of these floods in central Europe and France, it seems logical to make the European Union Solidarity Fund (EUSF) available as quickly as possible, and to use it effectively in order to help rebuild the damaged areas; this is my reason for voting in favour of this resolution. In order for that to happen, however, a new regulation on the EUSF is also needed, because the process required to access the funds is currently too drawn-out and complicated. I also believe that a large share of other European funds should be devoted to preventing risks and natural disasters, with a view to the sustainable development, use and management of land and housing, and in order to meet the new climate challenges effectively."@en1
