I voted for the report on the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) for the application from Austria in connection with the huge redundancies made in the automotive manufacturing industry. The application concerns the mobilisation from the EGF of a total amount of EUR 3 643 770 for Austria in connection with 2 338 redundancies in 706 enterprises operating in the land transport and transport via pipelines sector in the Austrian regions of Niederösterreich and Oberösterreich. The redundancies were made in the period between 1 February and 31 October 2010. The economic and financial crisis caused a 30-50% decrease in the freight business in Austria in July 2009. For lorries with an authorised maximum total weight above 3.5 tonnes, business dropped in the first half of 2009 by 17% compared with the same period of the previous year. These downward trends continued in 2010, with the result that many Austrian road transport businesses had to lay off some of their workers. I call on the Commission and Member States to simplify the procedures for awarding grants so that those made redundant as a result of the economic and financial crisis can benefit from the European funds available to support their reintegration into the labour market."@en1
