1 . At its meeting of 20 October 19o2 the Commission - decided to grant emergency-
aid of 9.5 million ECU to the people of Poland experiencing supply difficulties .
This will be charged to Article 950 of the 1982 budget promded the budgetary-
authority approves a corresponding transfer from Title 3 - EAGGF Guidance
Section .
2 . Emergency aid from the Community to the people of Poland - Article 95^-§f
the budget - stands at 17*5 million ECU : to date :
- 2 million ECU was approved on 23 December 1981 ;
- 8 million ECU was approved on 3 February 1982 ;
- 7.5 million ECU was approved on 2 July 1982 .
Appropriations had to be transferred to Article 950 to cover the last two
instalments (8 million and 7«5 million ECU ).
3 . From the outset , the Community decided to channel aid through European
non-governmental organizations , in preference to other methods , given the
close collaboration which has been established between the Community and these
organizations in the context of third world aid ( development projects , food aid ,
emergency aid ) and their success in harnessing the wave of solidarity within
Europe to meet the basic needs of the people of Poland .
4.   It looks as if a further instalment of 9*5 million ECU in humanitarian aid
can be sent to Poland via the NGOs in the near future .    The budgetary authority
is therefore requested to authorize the transfer of 9»5 million ECU from
Title 3 - EAGGF Guidance Section to Chapter 95 - Article 950 :
Aid to disaster victims in developing and other nonr-member countries .
