"Unfortunately, the Commission believes that its plans will help to meet future labour requirements. In a generous move, single permits will be issued for residence and work. However, it would be better if residence were to be linked to specific job opportunities on the labour market. Wholesale migration is unlikely to provide the answer. In addition, a common set of rights is being introduced which will put migrants on an equal footing with nationals, in other words, by providing the same tax relief, trade union rights and social security benefits. The question also arises as to who should pay for all of this. The heavily indebted euro area countries will undoubtedly not be able to. Furthermore, migrants are much more likely to become unemployed and are less well qualified. Under this system, it is mainly migrants who would benefit from claiming social security, because they belong to a group with a particularly low employment rate and are more likely to suffer from poverty. As a result, migrants would be over-represented in the social security systems, which will certainly not help our labour markets. For this reason, I have voted against this report."@en1
