". − I would firstly like to congratulate Denmark on taking over the EU Presidency from Poland and to wish it great success. Indeed, a number of challenges await Denmark, which are particularly important for the future of the European Union. These include the practical implementation of the European project for a reinforced economic union and further negotiations on the EU’s new Multiannual Financial Framework (2014-2020). Pushing these negotiations forward will be a major challenge for Denmark. Given that 2012 is the European Year for Active Ageing and Solidarity between Generations, I am delighted that Denmark intends to focus on increasing employment among older people. I welcome the fact that by discussing not just current but future employment problems, in its programme Denmark is talking not only about older people but also about the young and their preparation for future labour market needs. Particular attention is also paid to reducing early school leaving. It is nevertheless disappointing that the Presidency’s programme fails to mention issues of major importance to people such as the Maternity Leave and Anti-Discrimination Directives that have been deadlocked for over a year. I have already consulted the Danish Presidency about the future of both legal acts, and about when the Member States are planning to reach a common solution in order to adopt these important Directives as soon as possible, therefore it would be very interesting to hear what specific actions the Presidency intends to take regarding these two issues."@en1
