Amendment 49 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 7 – paragraph 1 a (new)
1a. 25 % of this budget will be transferred to the Structural Funds to support carbon-dependent regions affected by the transition of jobs due to the necessary structural transition to a low-carbon economy. These regions shall have access to additional support for the PO2 objectives in order to facilitate a just transition. The aim is to support such regions, in particular those which are not already qualified for support under the Modernisation Fund under Directive 2003/87/EC, by promoting the redeployment, re-skilling and up-skilling of workers, education, job-seeking initiatives as well as development of new jobs, for example through start-ups, in close dialogue and coordination with the social partners.
