Europe wildfires: Lecornu heckled over French emergency response

Lecornu said the aid, of which €10m (£8.5m) will go to Gironde and €2m (£1.7m) to Landes, will allow local authorities to “launch projects without delay” and build “a sort of recovery plan”. He also announced building permits for the “equivalent reconstruction” of homes destroyed by the fires would be issued within a month, or even quicker.
