"Mr President, this is an extraordinarily involved directive with an involved previous history, as has already been said. We have had great difficulty bringing this directive to a successful conclusion. I think that the main point is that the legislation this directive is about is very different in what are very different countries, that temporary work is regulated in a very different way in the different European countries and I would like everyone to recognise that. We must nonetheless seek a solution because of the previous history and also because of the fact that we would otherwise be unable to regulate cross-border traffic. To move in the direction of the Lisbon process we must develop further the important role that temporary work can play. We have considerable experience of it in the country where I come from. It is currently still the country with the highest percentage of temporary workers and experience shows that you can deregulate, but that you must then take certain statutory measures. That is a fact. As each country needs its own balance, the directive must be relatively flexible. Thanks to the work of the rapporteur, but also thanks to the work of the two shadow rapporteurs from the PPE-DE, this has been achieved to a very large extent and I would therefore like to thank all three of them very much. The Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market has also, I think, made a significant contribution, as has the Committee on Women’s Rights and Equal Opportunities, to the achievement of a result. It is very important that there is a result, as I have already said, but there are occasionally some interfering noises. These interfering noises often come from people who are thinking only of their own situation, of their own country. This we must prevent. This we cannot accept. Finally, Mr President, I would ask the Group of the European Liberal, Democrat and Reform Party to take another look at their own amendments. Amendments have been submitted in duplicate or triplicate, and contradictory amendments have also been tabled to the same Paragraph. This is no way to negotiate. We cannot deal with codecision this way. I would like to ask whether they would like to go through their own amendment list one more time."@en1
