ENVI European Parliament
Follow its sittings00:09 - 01:37
Speaker 2
Good morning. So, let's start with this joint committee. We start with the adoption of the agenda. If there are no objections, the draft agenda can be adopted without modification. Interpretation is available in 21 languages, and, as usual, the meeting file is available electronically via the e-Meeting application, and the meeting will be webstreamed.
Dear colleagues, welcome to this exchange of views. I have the pleasure to co-chairing today's meeting together with my colleague, Adam Jarubas. Today, we will be examining a special report from the European Court of Auditors on the Union Civil Protection Mechanism rescEU reserve. As the committee responsible for climate policy, ENVI has a direct interest in ensuring increased European capabilities to respond to climate change and natural disaster in cooperation with member states. In this respect, the Parliament strongly opposes to the 35% cut proposed by the EU presidency to the UCPM program in the next MFF.
Civil protection is a key priority for Europe. We therefore look forward to hearing about the Court of Auditors findings on the UCPM and the lesson that can be drawn up to be better prepared to face risk in the future. I now pass the floor to Adam Jarubas for his opening remarks.

Speaker 3
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Welcome to all to the joint ENVI-SANT committee meeting also from my part. Thank you, Chair Pierfrancesco Maran, for co-chairing this meeting. I'm looking forward to the presentation of Mr. Heisler, the ECA reporting member on this important topic. The ECA report that examined the planning, financing, and deployment of the rescEU capacities under the Union Civil Protection Mechanism from 2022 to 2024 made interesting findings based on which it presents recommendation to the Commission.
