"In October 2011, the Commission presented a proposal on European Social Entrepreneurship Funds (EuSEFs) with the purpose of supporting social enterprises through improving the efficacy of the mobilisation of investment funds for these companies. According to Eurostat, the unemployment rate reached 10.4% in the EU and 11.3% in the euro area in July 2012. There were 25.2 million unemployed people in the 27 Member States and, of these, approximately 18.1 million belonged to the euro area. I understand that it is fundamental to adopt measures to solve this social problem, which is affecting millions of people. Social entrepreneurship is a good solution, given that social businesses encompass a broad range of entities whose principal aim is solidarity. I agree with this report which establishes uniform rules on the nature of EuSEFs, in particular, on portfolio undertakings in which EuSEFs are authorised to invest and which investment tools to employ."@en1
