"Madam President, I would like to thank the rapporteur for his report. I will start by saying that this report is essentially an agreeable one, and that the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance is able to fully support it, because it is correct that the right to live and work in another country of the Union is one of the EU’s fundamental freedoms, and that is something that we must protect and develop. However, we in the Group of the Greens would like to introduce the concept of ‘mobility under decent conditions’, because it is the case in our Member States – I know this from my own country of Denmark – that there are major problems with social dumping and pressure on wages and working conditions. We see discrimination against workers from other EU Member States in relation to Danish workers, and that is unacceptable. I do not believe that, as a society, we can accept a division of our labour markets and pressure on wages and working conditions. We therefore need to focus more on combating discrimination and social dumping. The Member States must do more to enforce national rules. We need increased control, more information, more investigative work and a consistent effort on the part of the EU to ensure that mobility also continues to take place under decent working conditions."@en1
