Paragraph 9
9. Deplores the fact that, in spite of an extremely high profile and a very high implementation rate – reaching between 95-100% every year over the period 2007- 2009 – the increase in appropriations proposed in the DB for the key youth instruments and programmes, such as Lifelong Learning, Youth in Action and Erasmus Mundus, is rather symbolic; considers that this increase does not allow the EU to adequately address this priority and therefore intends to provide further support for these programmes; recalls, in this context, that these programmes have an indisputable European added value, concrete implications in the European citizens daily life and greatly contribute to the creation of a strong European civil society, despite the modest financial allocation that they receive;

Paragraph 43
43. Reiterates that coordinated and multidisciplinary investment in youth must be started without delay as a cross-policy theme, and that an increase in youth policy instrument funding should accordingly be proposed; deplores the lack of ambition shown by the Commission in failing properly to address this priority and confirms its intention to amend the draft budget in order to provide appropriate funding for this priority; in this context, the "Youth in Action" programme should be considered as a priority;
