Amendment 6 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 3
(3) In order to address the budgetary constraints faced by Member States at the initial stage of the programming period and, taking into account the urgent need to address youth unemployment and the specific features of the YEI, it is appropriate to lay down provisions in order to complement Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, with a view to increase the level of the initial pre-financing paid to operational programmes supported by the YEI in 2015. To ensure that Member States have sufficient means to provide payments to beneficiaries responsible for the implementation of operations that target youth unemployment, an additional initial pre-financing amount from the specific allocation for the YEI should be paid in 2015 for operational programmes supported by the YEI, in order to complement the pre-financing amounts paid in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013. In order to enable a prompt implementation of the operational programmes supported by the YEI, the Commission should commit itself to pay the pre-financing amount to the Member States immediately after the entry into force of this Regulation.

Amendment 8 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4
(4) To ensure that the additional initial pre- financing amount is used for the immediate implementation of the YEI, it should be foreseen that this amount is reimbursed to the Commission, if the Union contribution from the YEI does not amount to an adequate level in interim payment applications submitted to the Commission 12 months after the entry into force of this Regulation. This measure is a safeguard to ensure that eligible Member States set up the required structures to promptly implement the YEI. Member State action is urgently needed to deliver on the YEI and combat alarming levels of youth unemployment.
