".
I voted for Parliament’s resolution on the European Semester for economic policy coordination and the implementation of the 2012 priorities because the current economic climate demonstrates that closer coordination of the macroeconomic and budgetary policies of the Member States is needed to create a more integrated and balanced economic union.
In this year’s country-specific recommendations, Parliament notes that the Commission urged a number of Member States to restructure national systems for wage formation and/or reduce national wage levels. We would stress that the Commission’s recommendations on wage formation and levels may increase the risk of in-work poverty or wage inequalities that harm low-income groups. The autonomy of social partners is a crucial element of any well-functioning labour market and should be taken into account.
I call on the Commission and the Member States to prioritise the job creation potential of the environmental, health, education and social sectors, as well as the ITC sector, which are the key priorities of the Annual Growth Survey 2013. I also urge the Member States to make access to finance for SMEs a priority in their national growth plans."@en1
