"Mr President, I would like to use this minute to mention the tragic consequences of the heavy rains which have fallen in southern and south-eastern Spain, particularly in the region of Valencia, Murcia and part of Andalusia.
There was torrential rainfall on 28 September 2012 which caused very considerable damage across the whole agricultural sector. Thousands of hectares of crops were flattened, and many farms were completely ruined. The livestock sector also suffered losses, and damage was caused to the municipal road network, to street lighting, homes, buildings, and to industrial and commercial premises. I would also like to stress the difficulties which were already being experienced in Lorca, a town which, as you know, suffered a powerful earthquake a year ago, along with Puerto Lumbreras.
Those two towns, those two Spanish municipalities in the region of Murcia, and all those in these and other regions, are seeking the solidarity of the European Union in order to be able to carry on."@en1
