Coronavirus: EU countries to get help from Solidarity Fund

Inicio » EU News » Coronavirus: EU countries to get help from Solidarity Fund

26/03/2020

The European Parliament is mobilising additional funds to help the EU countries hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic.

In an extraordinary plenary session on Thursday 26 March, MEPs will vote on a European Commission proposal to allow member states to request financial assistance from the EU Solidarity Fund in their fight against Covid-19. The proposal is part of a set of EU measures to mobilise all existing budget resources to help EU countries tackle the pandemic.

The Commission proposes to broaden the Solidarity Fund’s scope to add major public health crises to the natural emergencies initially covered.

The hardest hit member states should get access to financial support of up to €800 million in 2020. Support would be decided on a case-by-case basis.

Who is eligible for funding

Under the new rules, public emergency and recovery operations, such as restoring the working order of infrastructures, cleaning up of areas and providing temporary accommodation for people, remain eligible for financing. The rules would be extended to cover assistance to the population in case of health crises and to cover measures to contain infectious diseases.
