"Madam President, the Agenda for New Skills and Jobs is one of the most important agendas in terms of fulfilling the aims of the 2020 strategy and overcoming the crisis more rapidly. The agenda talks about a qualified workforce, about the groups at risk in terms of employment, such as young people, women, older people and people living in remote and poorer regions, who are often highly-qualified experts.
As rapporteur for this agenda in the Committee on Regional Development (REGI), I would urge a more effective use of funding to develop new skills and the greater participation of national governments in supporting new job creation. Emphasis is given to the importance of synergies between the individual European funds, and a decentralised approach in using the resources from these funds, with the aim of meeting the requirements of the labour market. There is much talk currently about the future of the cohesion policy. I am therefore delighted that strengthening the impact of cohesion policy instruments – including the European Social Fund – has been included in the motion for a resolution, with a focus on concentrating the funding on a smaller number of priorities, strengthening the partnership principle and emphasising clear and measurable objectives.
In addition to this, the resolution talks about improving the functioning of the labour market, supporting inclusive labour markets, and improving the quality of jobs and working conditions, and we therefore support the motion for a resolution."@en1
