"We voted for this resolution, which is aimed at achieving a European strategy for homelessness, as this is one of the most serious social problems and most extreme forms of poverty existing in the European Union, which urgently needs to be resolved. The problem of ‘homelessness’ represents an unacceptable violation of fundamental human rights, and it is crucial to prioritise actions that promote social inclusion, so as to ensure that no one sleeps rough and that even the time they potentially spend in temporary lodging is limited strictly to the time needed to provide them with appropriate accommodation: their own housing. We consider it a positive step that the majority in Parliament has supported this resolution, urging the Commission to draw up an ambitious ‘homelessness’ strategy and to support the Member States in drafting effective national strategies, including support from Union funds to finance projects for housing marginalised groups in the Member States, wherever necessary. However, on top of all this, it is crucial to change current policy profoundly, especially in the economic, financial and social areas, in order to ensure employment with rights, quality public services, living pensions and the ability to pay for decent housing, including water, electricity, sanitation, etc."@en1
