"I voted in favour of the report on employment and social aspects in the Annual Growth Survey 2012, which shows how strong the impact of the economic crisis is at EU level and in terms of employment. The economic crisis aggravated social problems and had dramatic consequences, especially among young people, who are the ones worst affected by unemployment. In order to reduce economic imbalances and ensure sustainable economic growth, it is vital for Member States to encourage investment aimed at job creation. Thus, Member States must focus their policies on implementing appropriate fiscal measures to support SMEs as generators of economic growth.
With regard to Structural Funds, it is beneficial and necessary to make use of them in order to support SMEs and effectively fight unemployment. Thus, Member States should intensify their efforts to use Structural Funds, giving priority to fighting poverty and unemployment. Austerity measures are necessary, but they must be supported by compensatory measures, stimulating investments and job creation."@en1
