"Madam President, honourable Members, I agree with what Mr Andor has said, including in relation to the development of a politics reflected in the social market economy, as laid down in the Treaty, that gives us this objective.
I think that the communication on corporate social responsibility can make an important contribution, including to employment growth, and therefore give out positive signals, partly because this approach includes better ways of working and contributes to the competitiveness of our businesses.
A survey carried out by the Commission shows that more than 60% of businesses with equal opportunities policies say that these policies have contributed to a greater capacity for innovation and helped create jobs. I would therefore say that we are going to adopt this decision and it is currently being discussed by the Directorates-General. However, any suggestions from Parliament will be warmly welcomed so if you would like to send me your suggestions or ideas, I should be delighted to consider them. As long as the text has not been definitively adopted by the college of commissioners, it can still be amended and any proposal from Parliament will always be warmly received on my part."@en1
