7 Amendments of George LYON related to 2013/2087(BUD)

Amendment 2 #
Jan MULDER, George LYON, Anne E. JENSEN
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 2
2. Deeply regretNotes that the Commission did not analyse the effectiveness of the use of the crisis derogation criterion until now, specially taking into account that these EGF cases were not evaluated in the EGF mid-term review; notes that the Commission is entering the final phase of the ex-post evaluation of the EGF (2007- 2013); regrets, however, that the results are likely to arrive too late to feed into the discussion on the new regulation for the EGF in 2014-2020, especially regarding the effectiveness of the use of the crisis derogation criterion.

Amendment 11 #
Jan MULDER, George LYON, Anne E. JENSEN
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7
7. Notes the fact that following repeated requests from Parliament, and despite the fact that it is still under the necessary level, that the 2013 budget shows payment appropriations of EUR 50 000 000 on the EGF budget line 04 05 01; recalls that the EGF was created as a separate specific instrument with its own objectives and deadlines and that it therefore deservehas a dedicated allocation, which would avoid unnecessary delays, due to the fact that now its financing is made through transfers from other budget lines, which have proven to be detrimental to the achievement of the social, economic and policy objectives of the EGF of payment appropriations, which helps avoid unnecessary delays.

8. Deeply regrets the decision of the Council to block the extension of the 'crisis derogation' which allows provision of financial assistance to workers made redundant as a result of the current social, financial and economic crisis, in addition to those losing their job because of changes in global trade patterns, and which allows an increase in the rate of Union co-financing to 65% of the programme costs, for applications submitted after the 31 December 2011 deadline; calls on the Council to reintroduce this measure without delay, especially in the context of an aggravation of social emergency situations in several Member States following the expansion and deepening of recession.deleted
