Mobilisation of the European Union Solidarity Fund 2019

Commission's proposal: COM(2019) 496 – 18 October 2019
Council's position: 27 November 2019
Parliament's position: 27 November May 2019

This decision covers the mobilisation of the European Union Solidarity Fund (EUSF) in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 2012/2002 of 11 November 2002 (hereafter refered to as the 'Regulation') for an amount of EUR 4 552 517 to provide assistance to Greece further to the flooding and landslide disaster that took place in 2019. This mobilisation will be financed in full through the partial use of commitment and payment appropriations already entered into the 2019 budget for covering advances, after deducting the already paid advance of EUR 455 252. An amending budget is therefore not required.
