The European Commission on 23 May 2005 approved detailed plans for €323 million of its €350 million post-tsunami reconstruction programme, which was to be delivered over the following two years. €12 million has been immediately released under the Rapid Reaction Mechanism (RRM) to kick-start this longer-term reconstruction work. This built on the Commission's €123 million humanitarian aid that started flowing days after the disaster had struck. |
