Whereas:

(1)The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to provide additional support for workers made redundant                              as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation and to assist them with their reintegration                              into the labour market.

(2)The Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 allows the mobilisation of the EGF within the annual ceiling of EUR 500 million.

(3)Denmarksubmitted an application on 21 December 2012 to mobilise the EGF in respect of redundancies in the enterprise Vestas                              Group and supplemented it by additional information up to 16 July 2013.
