New article

This appropriation is intended to cover the financing of emergency support operations to respond to the urgent and exceptional needs in Member States as a result of a natural or man-made disaster, such as a sudden and massive influx of third-country nationals (refugees and migrants) into their territory.

This can be ensured in the form of a needs-based emergency response, complementing the response of the affected Member States, aimed at preserving life, preventing and alleviating human suffering and maintaining human dignity. Emergency response may encompass assistance, relief and, where need be, protection operations to save and preserve life in disasters or their immediate aftermath. This appropriation is also intended to cover the purchase and delivery of any product or equipment needed for the implementation of emergency support operations, including the building of homes or shelters for affected groups of people, short-term rehabilitation and reconstruction work, particularly of facilities storage, shipment, logistic support and distribution of relief and any other action aimed at facilitating freedom of access to the recipients of the aid.

This appropriation may be used to finance the purchase and delivery of food or any product or equipment needed for the implementation of the emergency support operations.

This appropriation may also cover any other costs directly linked to the implementation of emergency support operations and the cost of the measures that are essential for it within the requisite timescale and in a way which meets the needs of the recipients, satisfies the requirement to achieve the greatest possible degree of cost-effectiveness and provides greater transparency.

Any income from financial contributions from public and private donors entered in Item 6 0 2 1 of the Statement of Revenue, may give rise to the provision of additional appropriations.
