"Madam President, there is no doubt that while seeking profit, large companies cut down on employment, by reducing jobs generally by the hundred or thousand. Large companies should certainly be supported, but only those whose decisions to downsize are really justified, and who need help for their laid-off workers. Please do remember, however, that the five million jobs that Europe has lost during the crisis were lost, to a large extent, in the small and medium-sized enterprises sector. When helping the large, let us not forget that schemes should also be introduced to help SMEs to create new jobs. They are the ones who can respond to the difficult situation in the labour market in a timely and effective fashion. The elimination of administrative, tax and investment barriers for small and medium-sized enterprises is absolutely essential in order to create new employment opportunities as soon as possible for the five million who have lost their jobs. SMEs are the ones that can accomplish this task most quickly and efficiently and with most long-lasting effects. While discussing the large ones, let us not forget the small ones either."@en1
