lpv:translated text	"Madam President, we support the call on the Member States to consider the strong social arguments for ratifying and implementing the Conventions that have been classified by the ILO as up to date. Since 1919, the International Labour Organisation has maintained and developed a system of international labour standards which cover a broad range of subjects, including work, employment, social security, social policy and related human rights. We therefore supported the initial draft of the joint resolution tabled here. Regrettably, however, due to pressure from the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), the other signatories have allowed the importance of the resolution to be diluted and its power to be undermined, with the inclusion of a reference to the Lisbon Strategy for Growth and Jobs. However, as we are all aware, it was in the name of the Lisbon Strategy that the European Commission presented to this House some of the worst proposals against labour and social rights, through their emphasis on flexibility and labour deregulation. Who could forget the proposal to amend the Working Time Directive, which sought to devalue work and make it even more precarious, to extend the working day and to undermine collective bargaining and the role of trade unions, precisely the opposite of what the ILO conventions uphold? It is because of this regrettable reference to the Lisbon Strategy in particular that we have withdrawn our support for this resolution. However, on behalf of the Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left, we call on the Member States to ratify the ILO conventions and we urge the European Commission to consider our proposals."@en1
