"The Council must stop stalling the programme for distributing basic food products to the most deprived members of the population, especially during the current financial crisis when these sections of the population are likely to suffer most.
Although it is not completely satisfactory, the Council’s position must be adopted as soon as possible by the European Parliament so that the food aid can be released as a matter of urgency. One positive aspect is that the programme will not be subject to any reduction in funding and it will also continue to be financed 100% from the EU budget. At the same time, it will be based on European agricultural produce, which will help support the EU’s domestic production. On the other hand, there is no guarantee yet, unfortunately, that the food aid programme for the most vulnerable groups will also continue after 2013.
I believe that the programme must be extended under the same parameters after 2013 as well, given that the estimate for the number of people who genuinely need this programme is not going to fall; on the contrary, it is set to increase."@en1
