"Madam President, I understand that there are some benefits within the single application procedure for residence and work initiatives, which proposes a common set of rights for all third-country workers who lawfully reside in a particular Member State but who are not yet entitled to long-term residence status. Pension portability and education across the EU are some of those benefits, but this report suggests introducing a single application procedure and a single residence or work permit for across the EU. I fail to see the benefits of harmonising the internal administrative procedures with respect to permanent applications. Since labour markets of Member States are not harmonised, there is no clear EU added value to harmonise these procedures. What is more, the proposed directive will be costly for Member States to administer as it creates a right to legally challenge a rejection of an application and also requires Member States to designate a competent authority to process applications. Minimum rights of third-country workers are already guaranteed by the Charter of Fundamental Rights and the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and therefore are not necessary within this report. It is for these reasons I have voted against this initiative."@en1
