DECISION (EU) 2025/1525 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 9 July 2025
on the mobilisation of the European Union Solidarity Fund to provide assistance to Austria, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia and Moldova relating to floods occurred in September 2024 and Bosnia and Herzegovina relating to floods occurred in October 2024
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2012/2002 of 11 November 2002 establishing the European Union Solidarity Fund (1), and in particular Article 4(3) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 of 17 December 2020 laying down the multiannual financial framework for the years 2021 to 2027 (2), and in particular Article 9 thereof,
Having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 16 December 2020 between the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management, as well as on new own resources, including a roadmap towards the introduction of new own resources (3), and in particular point 10 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
The European Union Solidarity Fund (‘the Fund’) aims to enable the Union to respond in a rapid, efficient and flexible manner to emergency situations in order to show solidarity with the population of regions struck by major or regional natural disasters or major public health emergency. |
|
(2) |
The Fund is not to exceed the ceilings as laid down in Article 9 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093, as amended by Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2024/765 (4). |
|
(3) |
On 29 November 2024, Austria submitted an application to mobilise the Fund following the floods in September 2024. |
|
(4) |
On 29 November 2024, Poland submitted an application to mobilise the Fund following the floods in September 2024. |
|
(5) |
On 4 December 2024, Czechia submitted an application to mobilise the Fund following the floods in September 2024. |
|
(6) |
On 7 December 2024, Slovakia submitted an application to mobilise the Fund following the floods in September 2024. |
|
(7) |
On 5 December 2024, Moldova submitted an application to mobilise the Fund following the floods in September 2024. |
|
(8) |
On 27 December 2024, Bosnia and Herzegovina submitted an application to mobilise the Fund following the floods in October 2024. |
|
(9) |
Those applications meet the conditions for providing a financial contribution from the Fund, as laid down in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 2012/2002. |
|
(10) |
The Fund should therefore be mobilised to provide a financial contribution to Austria, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Moldova and Bosnia and Herzegovina. |
|
(11) |
In order to minimise the time taken to mobilise the Fund, this Decision should apply from the date of its adoption, |
