Question 18989 — European Union

Summary

Ms Frédérique Meunier draws the attention of the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the European food aid budget. Indeed, the current Fund for European Aid to the Most Deprived (FEAD) has a budget of 3.4 billion euros for the period 2014-2020. However, the FEAD should, from 2021, merge into a new fund, the ESF+ (European Support Fund+) in which the budget for food aid would not exceed 2 to 3 billion euros for 7 years. In the current social context, both European and national, where the number of people living below the poverty line exceeds 9 million in France alone, this reduction of almost half in allocations will weigh heavily on solidarity associations and on the help they will be able to provide. European food aid is of vital importance to many Europeans, including many French, in a precarious situation. She therefore asks her if she intends to make food aid a priority within the framework of the current European budget negotiations.
