lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I come from a new Member State. I support the compromise; to do otherwise would be socially and politically myopic. The way in which the majority in Parliament seems to have converged in order to drastically rethink the Services Directive shows the relevance of this institution. We are converting a proposal that could have had disastrous effects on our societies – especially on those most in need – into a much more sensible one. We are still not fully satisfied; we want public services to be clearly excluded and we want clearer safeguards on other sectors. Nevertheless we must admit that we have a much more realistic piece of legislation in front of us. We are renewing our agreement with the principle of freedom of movement of services and facilitating it, but we are agreeing that social rights come first. After our rejection of the Port Services Directive, for the second time in a relatively short period we are showing our commitment to a social Europe. I believe that Mr Whitehead would have been proud of Mrs Gebhardt and the rest of us."@en1
