The Commission has prepared a number of pilot schemes in connection
with the International Year of Disabled People ( l98l ); they were
submitted for the approval of the Social Fund Committee on
2 and 3 July , The Committee agreed that priority should be given
to the four following pilot schemes :
1.  assistance and advice co business firms so as to remove barriers
    to the employment of the handicapped ( Franco );
2.  applied research on working condition for handicapped people
    working off, the premises ( France );
3.  vocational trailing scheme for young mentally handicapped
    people ( Greece );     ,              ■
4.  establishment of a computer system to facilitate care of and
    contacts with disabled persons in the transition from training
    to employment (United Kingdom ).                              .
The programmes are now entirely worked out and can be embarked on
as soon as finance is available .
Estimated costs are as follows :                                    '
- Project 1 :        .  65 000 ECU
- Project 2s:           75 5OO ECU
-  Project 3 :         315 000 ECU
-  Project 4 :         194 000 ECU          ,
                       649 500 ECU                        •
In Article 520 of the budget (Pilot schemes and preparatory studies )
a total of 3 092 844.92 ECU was originally available in appropriations
for commitment for I98I , Following Commission decisions approving
schemes and studies since the beginning . of the year , approximately
36 500 ECU are now available .
To enable these four pilot schemes to be carried out , Article 520
will need
               649 500 ECU
           -    36 500 ECU available
           - 613 000 ECU
to be transferred in appropriations for commitment .
 ---pagebreak---                               - 2 -
The Commission proposes transferring this amount from Article 511
( Measures for handicapped, persons ) because :
1 . for 1981 , this Article has 90 million ECU in appropriations
     for commitment , from which the 613 000 could be transferred ;
2.   this is a Social Fund article which aims to "benefit the same
     category of people as the proposed pilot schemes ;
3.   future measures financed from Article 511 will benefit from
     the experience yielded by the four schemes . There is a direct
     link between Article 511 and the schemes which justifies the
     proposed transfer , and it is worth taking this special
     initiative in the International Year of Disabled People .
