"Mr President, like pretty much all my fellow Members, I am in almost full agreement with pretty much all the recommendations in this report, which aims to provide better opportunities for the disabled in our Member States. I do have a couple of important reservations, however. First of all, I want to say that this House must always respect the principle of subsidiarity as a matter of principle. That also means that, in fact, all aspects of social security can best and most efficiently be regulated and funded at Member State level, or even at the level of the regions within the Member States.
Secondly, I have very serious doubts about recitals 26 and 53. We really should have learned that massive funding via the Structural Funds is far from always efficient as – and I am expressing myself very carefully here – when money comes from Europe, it is, by definition, not carefully managed. If I turn now to recital 53 – why does the very wide-ranging and highly controversial anti-discrimination policy have to be incorporated here? Doing so is unnecessary and stands in the way of potential unanimity. I therefore hope that the amendments concerning these two paragraphs will be approved so that I can also give my backing to the report as a whole."@en1
