I voted in favour of this report because it clarifies and simplifies the procedure for standing as a candidate in elections to the European Parliament for citizens of the Union residing in a Member State of which they are not nationals. This is essential in the current context of the EU, in which migration from one Member State to another is an extremely common practice. As a result, those who are in this situation need a clear and simple process in order to be guaranteed one of the fundamental rights of a democratic entity – that of being able to stand as a candidate in elections. I also welcome the fact that both the Council and the European Parliament will make efforts to ensure that the Directive will be operational in time for the 2014 elections."@en1
