"Madam President, I congratulate Mrs Járóka on her excellent cooperation. The integration of the roughly 12 million Roma in the European Union cannot be achieved without the desire to do so from both the Roma and the majority in the relevant Member State.
Responsibility for the Roma population’s integration lies with both Member States and the European Union. European resources must be used to improve the engineering infrastructure, build new homes or repair existing ones, provide better education and improve access to the labour market.
There is no general solution which can be applied in the same way everywhere. Different approaches may be required even within one Member State, in its different regions. I believe that the beneficiaries of European funds should be involved in building their own home or environment so that they feel a sense of commitment to the solidarity which has been shown to them and they then obviously become good householders.
The political establishment and business community must rediscover the Roma and ensure better access for them to the labour market so that they can contribute to the European Union’s economic development and prosperity. I truly hope that this report will be properly implemented and will help improve the Roma’s social and economic integration on our continent."@en1
