(8)In accordance with Article 14(1) of Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013, the margins left available below the ceilings for commitment appropriations of the multiannual financial framework ('MFF') are to constitute the Global MFF Margin for commitments, to be made available over and above the ceilings established in the MFF for the years 2016 to 2020 for policy objectives related to growth and employment, in particular youth employment. The limitation of the margins left available below the MFF ceilings for commitment appropriations to the years 2014 to 2017 was removed by Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2017/1123note, thereby allowing the YEI to be extended to 2020 and the specific allocation for the YEI to be increased by an amount of EUR 1,2 billion in current prices for the period 2017-2020. The specific allocation for the YEI as set out in Articles 91(1) and 92(5) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 should therefore be adjusted accordingly.
