Aguilera calls on the EU to urgently authorize the advance payment of CAP aid in Spain
The Socialist MEP and Vice-President of the European Parliament’s Agriculture Committee, Clara Aguilera, has urged the European Commission in writing to give a green light to the advance of 70% of CAP aid in Spain.
In its view, the increase in the percentage of aid is “more than justified by the enormous damage caused in many sectors by the inclement weather and the serious consequences of the current drought.”
In any case, any advance of more than 50% requires the authorization of the European Commission, which is why Aguilera urges its authorization, “so that those affected can benefit from the aid from the middle of October”, has Completed.
