lpv:translated text	"Madam President, one of the five objectives of the European Union’s new Europe 2020 strategy is to bring 20 million of the people living in the European Union out of poverty. The data and statistics on poverty from 2009 are simply alarming: as many as 113 million people are affected by poverty and social exclusion. The situation is particularly worrying in that it may become worse because of the financial and economic crisis. Homelessness is an extremely drastic aspect of poverty and, what is worse, it is inherited, which makes it more difficult to tackle and control. I welcome all the efforts being made in this area by the European Parliament, which is making a particular point of fighting this phenomenon. In existing initiatives, clearly specified stipulations have been made concerning the question of control and prevention, including eliminating street homelessness by 2015 and fighting the causes of homelessness by formulating suitable housing and social policy. The success of the homelessness strategy at European level will depend on how the Commission fulfils the role it has been given of mobilising the Member States as quickly as possible to build effective and comprehensive strategies for tackling and controlling homelessness. The success of the project will, in large measure, also be decided by the degree of openness to working with the people affected by homelessness and with non-governmental organisations and other social partners. The creation of an effective homelessness policy is, therefore, dependent on interinstitutional cooperation and proper and effective implementation of existing legislation. Only a shared vision on policy and the engagement of both the European Union and the Member States can bring about full realisation of the objectives of the Europe 2020 strategy."@en1
