Proposal for a regulation

Recital 4
(4) To ensure that the additional initial pre- financing amount is used for the immediate implementation of the YEI, it should be foreseen that this amount is reimbursed to the Commission, if the Union contribution from the YEI does not amount to an adequate level in interim payment applications submitted to the Commission 12 months after the entry into force of this Regulation. This measure is a safeguard to ensure that eligible Member States set up the required structures to promptly implement the YEI. Member State action is urgently needed to deliver on the YEI and combat alarming levels of youth unemployment.
