lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I am in principle opposed to all EU legislation but, other things being equal, I prefer that legislation to be in the form of a directive rather than the form of a regulation, which of course is self-enacting. The content of the 1996 Groundhandling Directive was bad enough because it resulted in an increase in short-term contracts and greater use of new staff. This has led to a fall in wage levels. The proposed regulation would bring about further liberalisation. This might look good from an accountant’s perspective, but the jobs involved include aircraft maintenance, cargo handling and dealing with passengers, encompassing security checks. Is it really desirable to jeopardise safety, security and handling of valuables to transient staff without continuity of service? Liberalisation in this sphere, as in every other, is a recipe for oppressive working conditions, wage cuts and a lower standard of service."@en1
