On 16 June 2021, the second day of the Session the Chamber of Regions debated the role of regions post-crisis recovery and asked member states to involve regions in the policies of territorial solidarity by delegating part of the competencies to the regional authorities in order to implement tailored financial equalisation procedures or equivalent measures as the conventional method of assistance for weaker territories.
“Today, we must start planning for the post-Covid future, for the recovery of our societies and our economies, drawing lessons from our experiences during the crisis,” stressed the Chamber of Regions President, Harald Sonderegger (Austria, EPP/CCE) who presented a report on “Territorial solidarity: the role regions can play”.
