Recital 9
(9) Financial contributions from the EGF should be primarily directed at active labour market measures aimed at reintegrating redundant workers rapidly into employment, either within or outside their initial sector of activity, including the agricultural sector, or enabling them, in the event of the enterprise which employed them closing down, to take it over in the form of a cooperative. The inclusion of pecuniary allowances in a coordinated package of personalised services should therefore be restricted.

Article 16 – paragraph 4 a (new)
4a. In exceptional circumstances which require the swift provision of financial assistance in order to save jobs, as in the case of a planned take-over of an enterprise which has closed down by the workers made redundant, the sum in question could be provided in the form of pre-financing or an advance by the Member State or the organisation recognised by the Member State as responsible for financial intervention of this kind, as the deadlines imposed by the courts which deal with take-overs are often shorter than the time required by the procedure laid down in this Regulation.
