Recital 14 a (new)
(14a) For capacities maintained outside of the European Emergency Response Capacity, Member States are encouraged to develop a regional approach. Cooperation between regional and local governments should facilitate effective preparation and response, ensuring that scarce resources are used efficiently, utilising, inter alia, published records of capacities held at each level of government and voluntary pooled resources. Where Member States choose to adopt this approach, the Commission should be available to provide assistance and support.
