lpv:spoken text	"I voted in favour of the Mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) application made by Andersen Ireland. Andersen Ireland was a major employer in Rathkeale Co. Limerick for 37 years and employed over 171 people. The closure of Andersen Ireland came as a huge blow to the community as its closure will undoubtedly have a significant, adverse impact on the local and regional economy. I welcome the fact that this now means that the EU will make EUR 1.5m available to re-train and help find or create jobs for the former Andersen workers who were made redundant. I also welcome the fact that a derogation was put in place which reduced the eligibility threshold of affected workers from 500 people to allow the 171 workers who lost their jobs to access this fund. This is another example of the huge potential the European Globalisation Fund (EGF) has in providing assistance and the best opportunities, especially to those who find themselves out of work through no fault of their own."@en1
