lpv:translated text	"Almost one person in 10 (43 million) is facing the threat of food poverty in Europe, according to estimates by the European Commission. Europe comes to their assistance through the scheme for food distribution to the most deprived persons in the Union, and I attach a great deal of importance to this facility. Following a judgment by the European Court of Justice stipulating that only the provision of food from intervention stocks is covered by this programme, and not expenditure on foodstuffs on the market, the Commission is planning to cut funding drastically: it is set to fall from EUR 500 million in 2011 to EUR 113 million in 2012. I find it inconceivable that the scheme for food distribution to the most deprived persons in the Union should suffer a swingeing cut in its funding, particularly as this is due to a legal technicality. I hope that a solution can be found as soon as possible, and I obviously give my support to this resolution, which calls for a solution to be found, whatever legal structure is necessary to achieve this."@en1
