We voted against this report because, as in the case of the previous Göncz report on the establishment of a European Microfinance Facility for Employment and Social Inclusion, which was voted upon last December, the majority in Parliament goes back on its word and approves a proposal that takes away money from the Community Progress programme.
We recall that the two reports adopted in the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, in accordance with a previous resolution of the European Parliament, rejected the funding of this new facility at the cost of another that already existed and was functioning.
By way of an alternative, the creation of a new budget line with its own funds was proposed, which is to say one with ‘new’ money. The amendments tabled by our political group were along the same lines although they were, unfortunately, rejected.
Since social conditions in the various Member States are deteriorating, it is unacceptable for funds to be channelled away from employment and social inclusion towards other priorities that have been defined in the meantime, even if it is to microfinance."@en1
