62. The Government may establish general financial assistance or compensation programs
(1) with regard to disasters or their imminence or other events that compromise human safety;
(2) designed for the implementation, with regard to a disaster risk, of measures that are required immediately for the protection of persons by municipal authorities, by persons required to file a risk report or by persons threatened by the hazard; and
(3) designed to compensate the extra costs resulting from the exercise, during a state of emergency, of the powers provided for in section 23 or 57 and incurred by local municipalities, community organizations or civil protection associations.
The Government may also establish financial assistance or compensation programs specific to a disaster, to another event that compromises human safety, or to the imminence or probability of any of those events, in order to meet the particular needs of a situation.
