Mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund: redundancies in the automotive sector in Portugal

This dossier concerns the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) for redundancies in the automotive sector in Portugal. Amendments call for faster procedural and budgetary mobilisation of the EGF, recall its purpose of one-off, time-limited support to reintegrate redundant workers into employment, stress that assistance co-finances active labour-market measures, and note payment appropriations entered on the EGF budget line.
