I voted in favour of Ms Jazłowiecka’s report proposing a Social Investment Pact because, apart from giving an accurate analysis, it is extremely opportune. I have long maintained that the increasing economic integration of the Union by means of strengthening the internal market needs to be matched by equivalent progress in the Union’s social integration, in order to avoid both competition in the social area and social dumping (in order to artificially increase economic competitiveness) and also to counterbalance the negative social impact (in terms of poverty and unemployment) of the internal market on the most vulnerable economies and countries. Therefore, in addition to establishing the common basic standards needed for social protection at the level of the entire European Union, the idea of a social investment pact is especially opportune when the objectives of fiscal consolidation are so negatively reflected in cuts in public investment in education, health and social protection. Social cohesion must be taken seriously as a constitutional guarantee of the Union."@en1
