"Mr President, there are many things which could be done by Member States in the EU to combat youth unemployment. Some of these things have been identified in the opinion by the Committee on Regional Development on the implementation of the EU Youth Strategy, which I authored. The most important thing is the need for economic policies that counter the trend of austerity. It is a contradiction for the EU to implement policies that contract economies, leading to job losses on a large scale, while at the same time attempting to create jobs for young people. In order to create youth employment, we need conditions conducive to greater overall employment. This means investing in our economies. As it stands, funding allocated to youth employment initiatives is below what is required to address youth unemployment and to reverse its effects. The ILO states that it should be EUR 21 billion, so EUR 6 billion will not be sufficient. For these reasons I voted against the motion for a resolution."@en1
