as to enable the Union to provide temporary and targeted support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation where these redundancies have a significant adverse impact on the regional or local economy. For applications submitted before 31 December 2011, it may also be used to provide support to workers made redundant as a direct result of the global financial and economic crisis. The maximum amount of expenditure from the Fund shall be EUR 500000000 per year. The aim of this reserve, in accordance with point 28 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006, is to provide additional temporary support for workers who suffer from the consequences of major structural changes in world trade patterns and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market. The actions undertaken by the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund should be complementary to those of the European Social Fund without creating double structures. The methods for entering the appropriations in this reserve and for mobilising the Fund are laid down in point 28 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 and in Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006.

It should serve to adapt and develop energy networks of particular importance to the Union in support of the operation of the internal energy market and, in particular, to increase interconnection capacity, security and diversification of supply and to overcome environmental, technical and financial obstacles. Special Union support is necessary to develop energy networks more intensively and to accelerate their construction, notably where the diversity of routes and sources of supply is low. This appropriation should also serve to promote connection and integration of renewable energy resources and to strengthen economic and social cohesion with less-favoured and island regions of the Union. It is intended to cover the financing of the second step of the economic recovery plan as agreed between the two arms of the budgetary authority on 2 April 2009. Its financing is conditional on an agreement by the budgetary authority and should be made available as provided for in points 21, 22 and 23 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management, without prejudice to the financial envelopes of the codecision programmes and the European Parliament's priorities. If the Commission's annual report to the European Parliament and to the Council on the implementation of the economic recovery plan identifies serious risks for implementing the priority projects, the Commission shall recommend measures to offset those risks, and shall where appropriate and consistent with the economic recovery plan, make additional proposals for the projects already referred to in Regulation (EC) No 663/2009. Legal basis Regulation (EC) No 663/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 establishing a programme to aid economic recovery by granting Community financial assistance to projects in the field of energy (OJ L 200, 31.7.2009, p. 31).
