GROUNDS
TheCommission has prepared anumber ofpilot schemes inconnection
with theInternational Year ofDisabled People (l98l );they were
submitted fortheapproval oftheSocial Fund Committee on
2and 3July ,The Committee agreed that priority should begiven
tothefour following pilot schemes :
1.assistance and advice cobusiness firms soastoremove barriers
totheemployment ofthehandicapped (Franco );
2.applied research onworking condition forhandicapped people
working off ,thepremises (France );
3.vocational trailing scheme foryoung mentally handicapped
people (Greece ); , ■
4.establishment ofacomputer system tofacilitate care ofand
contacts with disabled persons inthetransition from training
toemployment (United Kingdom ). .
Theprogrammes arenowentirely worked outandcanbeembarked on
assoon asfinance isavailable .
Estimated costs are asfollows : '
-Project 1: .65000ECU
-Project 2s: 755OOECU
-Project 3: 315000 ECU
-Project 4: 194000ECU ,
649 500ECU •
InArticle 520ofthebudget (Pilot schemes andpreparatory studies )
atotal of3092844.92 ECUwasoriginally available inappropriations
forcommitment forI98I ,Following Commission decisions approving
schemes andstudies since thebeginning .oftheyear ,approximately
36500ECU arenowavailable .
Toenable these four pilot schemes tobecarried out ,Article 520
will need
649500ECU
-36500ECU available
-613000ECU
tobetransferred inappropriations forcommitment .

-2-
TheCommission proposes transferring this amount from Article 511
(Measures forhandicapped ,persons )because :
1.for1981 ,this Article has90million ECUinappropriations
forcommitment ,from which the613000could betransferred ;
2.this isaSocial Fund article which aims to "benefit the same
category ofpeople astheproposed pilot schemes ;
3.future measures financed from Article 511 will benefit from
theexperience yielded bythefour schemes .There isadirect
link between Article 511and the schemes which justifies the
proposed transfer ,and itisworth taking this special
initiative intheInternational Year ofDisabled People .
