Recital 9

Recital 13
Recital 13
(13) The Mechanism should make it possible to mobilise and facilitate coordination of assistance interventions. The reinforced cooperation should be based on a Union structure consisting of an emergency response centre, a European emergency response capacity in the form of a voluntary pool of pre-committed capacitiresources from the Member States, trained experts, a common emergency communication and information system managed by the Commission and contact points in the Member States. It should provide a framework for collecting validated emergency information, for disseminating that information to the Member States and for sharing lessons learnt from interventions with the shortest delay possible.

Recital 16
Recital 16
(16) The availability of adequate means of transport needs to be improved to support the development of a rapid response capability at the Union level. The Union should support and supplement the efforts of Member States by facilitating the coordination and pooling of transport resources of Member States and contributing, where necessary, to the financing of additional means of transport subject to certain criteria.

Recital 22
Recital 22
(22) The objective of this Decision cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States alone, and can therefore, by reason of the scale or effeimpacts of the proposed action, taking into account the benefits resulting from the operation of the Mechanism in terms of reducing the loss of human life and damage, be better achieved at Union level. If a majorserious emergency overwhelms the response capabilities of an affected Member State, this State should be able to appeal to the Mechanism to supplement its own civil protection and other emergency response resources. The Union may therefore adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union. In accordance with the principle of proportionality as set out in that Article, this Decision does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective.
