table>(1)The objectives of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers (EGF) are to demonstrate solidarity and promote decent and sustainable employment in the Union by providing support for workers made redundant and self-employed persons whose activity has ceased in the case of major restructuring events and assisting them in returning to decent and sustainable employment as soon as possible.
(2)The EGF is not to exceed a maximum annual amount of EUR 186 000 000 (in 2018 prices), as laid down in Article 8 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 (3).

(3)On 12 October 2021, France submitted an application to mobilise the EGF, in respect of worker’s displacements in Selecta in France. It was supplemented by additional information provided in accordance with Article 8(5) of Regulation (EU) 2021/691. That application complies with the conditions for a financial contribution from the EGF as laid down in Article 13 of Regulation (EU) 2021/691.

(4)The EGF should, therefore, be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution of EUR 4 074 296 in respect of the application submitted by France.

(5)In order to minimise the time taken to mobilise the EGF, this Decision should apply from the date of its adoption,
