lpv:translated text	". The Commission proposal for a services directive aimed at social dumping and deregulation. I am glad that my Group has succeeded in turning this directive into its precise opposite. The country-of-origin principle has been dropped, to be replaced by market access without discrimination. The labour laws of the place where the services are performed are to apply. It is also significant that the directive on the posting of workers continues to apply without restriction and that there is a derogation for temporary work through agencies. It is now for the Council to desist from further blocking European legislation on this subject. Although I am glad that the directive no longer applies to services of general interest, I do find it regrettable that services of general economic interest are still subject to it to some degree. We urgently need a European framework directive to lay down rules in this important area. As the legislative process continues, a number of aspects will need attention. The fundamental freedoms of workers, as defined in the EU’s ‘Monti clause’, will need to take precedence over the rules of business life. The rights of codecision and codetermination, being founded upon the law, must not be undermined. Due regard shall consistently be had to the legitimate interests of the common good, as defined by Article 4.7a in conformity with the jurisprudence of the ECJ. Legally founded obligations in the interests of workers from a given country and from elsewhere (mandatory contributions to trade associations, holiday funds, etc.) must apply equally to those performing services both at home and across frontiers."@en1
