"Madam President, Europe will not recover from the current crisis unless it manages to help young people find a job or start a business. A young workforce is required to support the pensions system in an ageing European Union.
According to the latest data from ANOFM, the Romanian National Employment Agency, more than 100 000 people under the age of 30 are currently out of work. I should mention that the biggest difficulties are encountered in getting the first job. The Romanian State’s annual expenditure on this is actually EUR 1.17 billion. This is why I welcome funding and support for young entrepreneurs in any form. However, the Commission must clarify whether it intends to reduce the amounts allocated to countries with low absorption rates. On the other hand, I think that these are precisely the Member States which require the most support to boost their capacity to use EU funds. Reducing the cofinancing rate is an option with this purpose in mind.
I also call on the Commission to submit an action plan for using the EUR 22 billion from the European Social Fund in apprenticeship and training programmes. I should stress that clarification is also required as to the method to be used for offering young entrepreneurs guarantees from EU funds."@en1
