Amendment 30 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 10
Paragraph 10
10. Welcomes the creation of the European Labour Authority, which is expected to begin operating in 2019; highlights the need to provide for additional funding to ensure that sufficient financial resources are set aside for its establishment; regrets that the funding proposed by the Commission (EUR 11 million, appropriations are to be entered into the reserve until such time as the basic act is adopted by the legislator) is of a lower magnitude than the one of other EU agencies in the area of employment and social affairs; insists that this funding cannot be accomplished by redeploying allocations from the other employment and social affairs agencies; notes that the EURES portal will gradually be shifted under the ELA in 2019 and 2020 and calls for assurance that this transfert of activities does not lead neither to any cut in the EURES budget nor to any disruptions in the functionning of the portal;
