This report improves significantly upon the programme entitled ‘Youth in Action’ for the period 2007-2013 and seeks to take on board some of the criticisms of the previous youth programme made in the interim review and the consultation process, with particular regard to the way in which the procedure for applying for funding has become more flexible and less hampered by red tape.
The financial framework proposed by the Commission, however, is extremely limited. We therefore back the report’s call for a substantial increase in the funds made available, and welcome its clarification of the fundamental values that we want to promote among young people, such as respect for human dignity, equality, respect for human rights, tolerance and non-discrimination.
Furthermore, we welcome the amendments intended to place greater emphasis on the following aspects: equality between men and women and the fight against discrimination; and the fight against all forms of exclusion and discrimination including those on grounds of sex, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation, in accordance with Article 13 of the Treaty.
Hence our vote in favour, in spite of some of the programme’s shortcomings."@en1
