The public hearing on “Management and Preparedness for Extreme Weather Events and Natural Disasters in the EU Budget” will examine the effects of the rising frequency and severity of natural disasters on the current EU budget, as well as on the planning and implementation of the EU’s long term budget.
The Committee on Budgets will hold a public hearing to understand which mechanisms within the EU budget are in place to respond to severe weather and climate emergencies. They will also gain insight into the appropriateness of existing instruments, the level of preparedness to face climate risks, and reflect on future requirements.
