The granting of regulated aid in these bases falls within the Youth Employment Operational Programme. This initiative of the European Commission intends to launch in the period 2014-2020 new lines of support for young people, of one and another sex, of more than eighteen years and under the age of thirty who do not have any occupation or they are studying or doing a training cycle.

The European Council of 7 and 8 February 2013 proposed a Youth Employment Initiative, which will be eligible for European regions with youth unemployment rates higher than 25 per 100.

The Recommendation of the European Council of 22 April 2013 on the establishment of the Youth Guarantee defines it as a recommendation to the Member States to ensure that all young people, one and the other, are less than Thirty years receive a good offer of employment, continuing education, apprentice training or traineeship within four months after becoming unemployed or completing formal education.

Recommends that in designing this Youth Guarantee System, Member States should be aware of issues of a general nature such as the fact that young people, one and the other, do not constitute a homogeneous group with similar social settings, as well as the principle of mutual enforcement and the need to address the risk of cycles of inactivity.

The European Council subsequently indicated that Member States with access to the Youth Employment Initiative funds should submit a National Guarantee Implementation Plan by the end of 2013. Youth.

In response to the Community Recommendation, the Government of Spain, in coordination with the Autonomous Communities, the social partners and other entities of interest, including the Youth Council Spain agreed on the National Plan for the Implementation of the Youth Guarantee, which was presented to the European Commission on 19 December 2013.

Finally, the National Youth Guarantee System in Spain is regulated for the first time in Chapter I of Title IV of Royal Decree-Law 8/2014 of 4 July of the Approval of Urgent Measures for Growth, the Competitiveness and Efficiency, and it is subsequently set out in Law 18/2014 of 15 October, for the approval of urgent measures for growth, competitiveness and efficiency.

The EOI Foundation has proposed the regulatory bases and will hold the call for grants for the promotion of entrepreneurship, and in this way correct the low percentage of entrepreneurship of the young population in Spain and to allow access to employment through the self-employment of young people, of one and another sex, registered in the National Youth Guarantee System file, under the Youth Employment Operational Programme. Likewise, the additional provision of Law 38/2003, of 17 November, General of Grants (hereinafter the General Grant Law), is applicable to the EOI Foundation.

Calls for these regulatory bases will be co-financed with the European Social Fund and the Youth Employment Initiative (YEI) within the Youth Employment Operational Programme. The co-financing and the conditions required for the co-financing shall be expressly indicated in the calls and shall also indicate that the operations to be supported shall comply with the selection criteria laid down for that programme. Operational.

Law 40/2015 of 1 October of Legal Regime of the Public Sector modified the General Law of Grants in its final provision, granting a new wording to the first paragraph of its additional sixteenth provision, by virtue of which the function of approval of the regulatory bases of the grants awarded by the foundations of the public sector is attributed to the organs of the Administration that exercises the Protectorate of the foundation, in the event that it is not the possible identification of the bodies of the administration which will finance the most corresponding grant.

Since the functions that Article 125 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 attributes to the managing authorities are not related to the approval of the aid regulatory bases, nor is this function found to be Article 4.2 (c) of Royal Decree 343/2012 of 14 February, for which the basic organic structure of the Ministry of Employment and Social Security is developed, attributes to the Administrative Unit of the European Social Fund, corresponds to the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport the competence of approval of the present regulatory bases, in accordance with the Report issued by the State Advocate General of 1 April 2016.
