Torrential Deluge Causes Inundation - Bavaria offers 100 million euros for flood relief efforts, says Söder.

Following the catastrophic floods in various regions of the nation, the Bavarian state government intends to dish out a minimum of 100 million euros in assistance to the affected: "100 million plus X" stated Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) on Tuesday after a cabinet meeting in Munich. This aid package is set to aid both individuals and commercial entities, solopreneurs, and farmers, according to Söder. "Bavaria acts swiftly and bureaucratically," said Söder. "We won't leave anyone stranded in distress." Söder also appealed for the federal government to honor its commitments and provide flood disaster assistance.

The Bavarian plan involves offering up to 5,000 euros in emergency aid for households, up to 10,000 euros for petroleum damage to private residences - with deductions made for insurance payouts at the end. In circumstances where extinction is imminent, Söder declared that up to 100% would be recovered. Establishments and self-employed people could seek emergency aid between 5,000 and 200,000 euros. If the damage was insurable, the amounts would be lowered.
