"The economic and financial crisis that is severely affecting jobs within the European Union requires a strong European response adapted to the variety of situations in the various Member States of the European Union. The creation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) responded to that very requirement and to the difficulties that thousands of Europeans, as victims of the crisis, unfortunately may and do face. Moreover, in the current, enduring economic conditions, which unfortunately could endure for several months yet, the continuation of this European fund appears to be an absolute necessity. I therefore voted in favour of extending the EGF until the end of 2013. I also endorsed the creation of its own specific budget line. Lastly, I supported the alignment of the EGF cofinancing rate with the rate applicable to the Structural Funds. The EGF is one of the best examples of social solidarity that Europe can use to combat the global crisis, and it is therefore essential to make it permanent."@en1
