Amending budget 4/2015: mobilisation of the EU Solidarity Fund for Romania, Bulgaria and Italy

This budgetary text concerns Draft amending budget No 4/2015 for the mobilisation of the EU Solidarity Fund for Romania, Bulgaria and Italy. The amendments stress the urgent need to release financial assistance through the Fund to the countries hit by floods, note the cases could have been paid from an earlier surplus, and regret a tendency in the Council to draw money from other programmes rather than mobilising additional resources.
