"I voted for the motion for a resolution on ‘Towards a job-rich recovery’. The unemployment rate has risen from 9.5% in 2010 to 10.2% in 2012, equalling a total of 6 million job losses since 2008. Austerity measures aimed at fiscal consolidation being pursued in a number of Member States have contributed to significant increases in unemployment, while the Commission forecasts predict a stagnation of the EU GDP in 2012 and recessions in several Member States. I believe that developing entrepreneurship and setting up businesses should be promoted as a means of creating more jobs. Therefore, we call on the Commission and the Member States to increase investment in these areas, in particular through public procurement and access to finance. We also call on the Commission to support the Member States in their fight against unemployment and especially youth unemployment, with unused allocations from the Structural Funds. I think it is important for Member States to make better use of the EURES system, given that it plays a key role in the functioning of the internal market through advising workers and jobseekers on their rights in other Member States."@en1
