Paragraph 15
Paragraph 15
15. Underlines the importance of reinforcing the employability of young people and is determined to ensure the proper funding for the YEI programme in the last year of the current MFF; underlines that the level of youth unemployment in some regions of the Union is still all too high, thus the fight against youth unemployment must be intensified since it is of strong European added value, and therefore underlines the need to accelerate the implementation of this programme and to further improve its efficiency, so as to ensure that it brings more European added value to national employment policies; proposes therefore an increase of EUR 363,3 million above DB levels in commitment appropriations for the YEI;
