"Following the 2002 floods, which caused great human and material damage in Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic and France, the Council of the European Union created an instrument to allow funds to be released rapidly to assist regions affected by natural disasters. Today it is Ireland, itself affected by floods, that will benefit from these funds. I voted in favour of this amendment to the EU budget, as it allows this aid to be paid to our Irish friends. This vote symbolises European solidarity in the face of natural disasters. This solidarity is being shown today in Ireland and tomorrow in France. Indeed, our country will soon receive substantial financial aid to deal with the consequences of storm Xynthia in February 2010."@en1
