".
I shall be voting against the Commission’s legislative work programme, presented by Mr Barroso, for the following reasons. It says nothing about the withdrawal of the directive on services or of the country of origin principle. It gives no precise commitment for a framework directive on public services. There is no upward fiscal and social harmonisation, and the anti-social trends of the draft ‘working hours directive’ are maintained. It calls for flexibility, for structural reforms to take account of ageing, which will call retirement schemes and labour law into question. Its industrial policy is weak, containing no sectoral plans for sectors such as textiles, nor a strategy to prevent relocation. It lacks ambition in development aid, especially with the creation of a tax on capital movements.
It is clear that this programme does not make for the creation of a genuinely social Europe, but will instead pose a threat to the present European social model. It confirms the ultraliberal tendencies of the Barroso Commission."@en1
