"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Mr Hasse Ferreira, who is unable to be here today, and I, believe that effective action should be taken to promote jobs and fight social exclusion throughout the EU. If we are to combat poverty effectively, we must create more and better jobs, and the quality of those jobs must be seen as no less important.
We wish to highlight the need to use incentives to encourage local organisations to support efforts to integrate more people into the labour market. This activity is important, because as well as contributing towards economic growth, it will also help to ensure that development is characterised by solidarity. In many Member States during the change of regimes and systems, labour rules and the nature of the labour market have also undergone significant change.
Ladies and gentlemen, under a new social and political model, the fight against unemployment and for social inclusion also entail improving the quality of education and lifelong vocational training. Other important aspects of this debate are the notion that access to housing is a factor in social inclusion, and the need for effective support for bringing young people with degrees or other high-level qualifications into the labour market, in order to derive maximum benefit from the qualifications that they have acquired in the education system. Including young people in the manufacturing sector will also help to modernise the economy.
Mr Hasse Ferreira and I would also like to highlight the proposal by the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality, which urges Member States to attach special importance to eradicating poverty, which affects women, children and ethnic minorities in particular.
In addition to attaching importance to competitiveness, the Lisbon Strategy also encompasses the European social model. In this context, the promotion of sustainable economic development, including the creation of more and better jobs, within the context of social cohesion, is key to ensuring that people of all States of the EU can be in a single market within a developed Europe that is characterised by solidarity."@en1
