"I am pleased that this funding for redundant workers in the Spanish footwear industry was approved. This funding will assist in the reintegration of the workers into employment. This funding should prove particularly important as 41% of the redundant workers have only a basic education, while 48% are uneducated or early school leavers. Unless these workers are given an opportunity to upskill or retrain, they will add to the already unacceptably high rate of unemployment in Spain. With unemployment at 24.3%, youth unemployment a staggering 51.5%, and GDP set to decrease by 1.8% this year, Spanish workers need assistance to give them opportunities to find employment or set up their own businesses. In this context, I call on the Council to reconsider its approach on EGF and ask the blocking minority to reconsider, to look at the added value of the EGF, and to remember, in particular, the needs of low-skilled and unskilled workers who lose their jobs."@en1
