"Parliament already adopted the joint EU resettlement programme by a large majority in May 2010 and it has now reached second reading. Using financial incentives, and logistical and technical support, this programme is intended to resettle in the Member States a growing number of refugees considered from a priority list made up of children and women at risk, unaccompanied minors, survivors of violence and torture and people with severe health problems, so that they can be treated, as well as people with legal or physical reasons. As well as the vulnerability criterion, the Commission and Council are also imposing annual geographical priorities. To encourage the Member States to participate, there is an additional financial contribution of EUR 6 000 per person resettled in the first year, with the sum decreasing in subsequent years. The problem of refugees is an issue on which the EU should focus. There should be solidarity between Member States, but, above all, compassion and respect for the human dignity of people who are in deplorable situations. Let us hope that the Member States will sign up to this programme and resettle the maximum number of refugees possible."@en1
