"Instead of intensified austerity measures and tax hikes that affect the less well off strata of society, what we need is a European-level strategy that is conducive to growth and job creation, with the full utilisation of the opportunities provided by the single market as one of its pillars. The elimination of existing barriers to the functioning of the internal market would not only result in savings for public finances, but would also give a boost to economic growth. The majority of measures aimed at completing the internal market does not require major investments, merely political will and a competent executive apparatus. The economic benefit of such measures, however, can be measured in billions of euro, given that they foster mobility within the European Union, facilitate cross-border service provision, promote small and medium-sized enterprises’ access to funding, encourage innovation and, ultimately, lead to job creation. The ideal functioning of the single market presupposes that European citizens – who have the right, by operation of law, to freely travel, take employment and settle down within the European Union – do not suffer discrimination while exercising these rights. It is the responsibility of Member State governments and European institutions to ensure that citizens are fully aware of their rights and obligations, and can make use of the available options for legal remedy, if necessary. We must guarantee EU citizens working in other Member States the same fundamental social rights as citizens employed in their home countries. The freedom to provide services and the freedom to pursue economic activities must go hand in hand with guaranteed social security."@en1
