# on the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (application EGF/2014/016 IE/Lufthansa Technik from Ireland)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the European                           Globalisation Adjustment Fund (2014-2020) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006(1), and in particular Article 15(4) thereof,                        

Having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 2 December 2013 between the European Parliament, the Council and the                           Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management(2), and in particular point 13 thereof,                        

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

(1)The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to provide support for workers made redundant and self-employed                              persons whose activity has ceased as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation, as                              a result of a continuation of the global financial and economic crisis addressed in Regulation (EC) No 546/2009 of the European                              Parliament and of the Council(3), or as a result of a new global financial and economic crisis and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour                              market.

(2)Article 12 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013(4) allows the mobilisation of the EGF within a maximum annual amount of EUR 150 million (2011 prices).

(3)Ireland submitted an application to mobilise the EGF, in respect of redundancies in Lufthansa Technik Airmotive Ireland Ltd                              and two suppliers in Ireland, on 19 September 2014 and supplemented it by additional information as provided by Article 8(3)                              of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013. This application complies with the requirements for determining a financial contribution                              from the EGF as laid down in Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013.

(4)The EGF should, therefore, be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution of an amount of EUR 2 490 758 for the                              application submitted by Ireland,
