Question 19826 — European Union

Summary

Mr. Nicolas Démoulin alerts the Secretary of State, attached to the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, responsible for European affairs, to the European Fund for Aid to the Most Deprived. The Fund for European Aid to the Most Deprived (FEAD) supports actions carried out by EU countries to provide food aid or basic material assistance to the most deprived. These include food, clothing and other goods essential for personal use. This material assistance must be accompanied by social integration measures, including advice and assistance services aimed at helping people escape poverty. A pillar of European social policy benefiting the 30 million poorest Europeans with a total budget of nearly 3.4 billion euros for the 2014-2020 financial year, the FEAD will merge with the ESF+, raising fears of a reduction in its budget. Remaining attentive to the needs of a Europe which addresses the most deprived, it draws attention to the need for a clear and effective system to respond to extreme poverty throughout Europe. He also asks to what extent France will support maintaining these funds in full for the 2019-2024 financial year.
