"This proposal on behalf of the mobilisation of EGAF for German workers – as well as the proposal from the Lithuanian refrigeration sector – was to be among the first beneficiaries of the fund in 2010. Both are worthy applications. I welcome the new Commission’s commitment to continuing this fund which provides people with a ‘hand up’ as opposed to a ‘hand out’ following redundancy. My own constituency has benefited from this fund and I hope it continues to do so in future The global downturn has severely reduced the demand for luxury items and even though this makes the current troubles of the motor car industry understandable, it makes it no less saddening. The situation in Germany is particularly difficult due to sheer numbers; 2 476 redundancies are concentrated in the same area, around the same industry. It is my hope that the EUR 6.199 million will help produce a successful way out of the crisis for the workers, their families and the area"@en1
