Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8

(8) Investments in infrastructure and technologies alone are not sufficient to ensure a reduction of dependency from fossil fuels. Resources should be dedicated to the reskilling and upskilling of people, to further equip the workforce with green skills. This is in line with the objective of the European Social Fund Plus, which aims at supporting Member States in achieving a skilled and resilient workforce ready for the future world of work. In light of this, resources t~~ransferred from~~emporarily and voluntarily earmarked within the European Social Fund Plus should help support measures for the reskilling and upskilling of the workforce. The Commission will assess whether the measures included in the REPowerEU chapters significantly contribute to supporting a requalification of the workforce towards green skills.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17

(17) Regulation (EU) 2021/1060 of the European Parliament and of the Council6 should be amended to provide for the possibility to t~~ransfer~~emporarily earmark up to 7.5% of resources of shared management programmes governed by that Regulation to the Facility for the achievement of the REPowerEU objectives, in addition to the existing transfer possibility of up to 5%~~. Such a~~, provided that the latter is fully exhausted. Such an earmarking possibility is justified by the need to co~~ver~~ntribute to the REPowerEU objectives, providing Member States with additional flexibility to address those urgent needs. Furthermore, the Facility allows for a fast disbursement of funds, making it particularly well suited for financing of urgent energy-related measures. Such ~~transfers~~earmarking should be justified by a higher financial need linked to additional reforms and investments included in the REPowerEU chapter. _________________ 6 Regulation (EU) 2021/1060 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 June 2021 laying down common provisions on the European Regional Development Fund, the European Social Fund Plus, the Cohesion Fund, the Just Transition Fund and the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund and financial rules for those and for the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund, the Internal Security Fund and the Instrument for Financial Support for Border Management and Visa Policy (OJ L 231, 30.6.2021, p. 159).
