Mr President, on behalf of my group, I would like to warmly congratulate Ms Jean Lambert on the results she has achieved. She has proved to be a star rapporteur. She has succeeded in including gender identity as specific grounds for persecution. That is extremely important for all transgender people, who are, unfortunately, often persecuted around the world simply because of what they are. The protection of children is now better regulated, as well, especially with regard to the tracing of parents of unaccompanied minors. It is unfortunate that, in the field of social security, we have not succeeded in establishing a uniform system for refugees and other people in need of internal protection, but we have, at least, made some progress here.
However, my group will abstain from the vote tomorrow. We fear that the adoption of the Qualification Directive might be the beginning of a customised approach and that, ultimately, we will fail to reach agreement on the reception and procedure standards and that, as Ms Sargentini has said, we will only go part of the way in dealing with the other issues.
I know that Ms Jean Lambert is aware of this and of which issues we are hesitant about, although she, herself, has come to a different conclusion. I hope that she will be proved right and we wrong, and that the adoption of this directive will not take anything away from the nature of the asylum proposals as a package. It is therefore of great importance that both Commissioner Malmström and the Polish Presidency confirm that, for them, this principle is still set in stone. I wish Commissioner Malmström every success in keeping this package as a unit."@en1
