lpv:translated text	". The former employees and the four suppliers of Opel Antwerp are still angry at the way they were treated by GM. Opel Antwerp was a modern and successful car assembly business. Yet GM very arrogantly decided to scrap 2 834 jobs. Antwerp was not given a chance, despite the many attempts to find a buyer. Belgium quite rightly applied for assistance from the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF), which was set up in order to provide additional support to workers faced with the consequences of major structural changes in global commercial trade. Following a favourable opinion from the Commission, the European Parliament today rightly decided to make a total sum of EUR 9 593 931 available from the EGF in order to mitigate the impact on these workers, who had been made compulsorily redundant. I am pleased that this House is today explicitly stating that there was a lack of willingness on the part of the Opel management to adapt to the challenges of the day. Parliament is also rightly critical of the way in which the Opel crisis was tackled by the Member States in question. There was a lack of coordination of long-term measures to support this sector in the various national recovery plans. All of this leaves a particularly bad taste in the mouth."@en1
