"Forty-two million Europeans live in conditions of severe material deprivation and cannot afford to live a decent life in Europe. Faced with these figures and with the economic prospects for the coming months, the European platform against poverty and social exclusion is crucial. The report from Frédéric Daerden contains several key ideas. Thus, the text calls for the Commission or Eurostat to compile a comprehensive scoreboard on poverty and social exclusion, and for national statistics on poverty to be improved and made more comparable. As regards the minimum income, it expresses the desire for the Commission to launch a consultation on the possibility of a legislative initiative in this area. In addition, on the creation of new jobs, it calls for action in accordance with the basic principles laid down by the ILO, putting into practice the concept of decent work and quality jobs. It also recommends appropriate taxation of very high salaries to help fund social protection systems and the minimum wage. I think these are fair ideas and I wished to support them in this vote."@en1
