"The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) has proven, since its creation in 2006, and particularly since the revision and relaxation of its rules in 2009, that it is both useful and relevant in the economic and social crisis that we are currently experiencing. By assisting workers who are suffering as a result of the crisis, it is the expression of European solidarity. True, it is a crisis management instrument that can be rather slow, but its added value is plain to see. We must therefore maintain it, and that is why we are in favour of extending the derogation until the end of 2013.
Like the majority of Parliament, I am also in favour of the EGF continuing after 2013.
Lastly, I believe that this fund should have its own budget and hence a budget line; I find it regrettable that, in the present circumstances, this idea should have been rejected by the majority of the European Parliament during the vote on the resolution."@en1
