"At present, over 80 million people in the European Union, or around 16% of the EU’s total population, suffer from physical or mental disabilities. People with any kind of disability are full citizens, and therefore have the right to equal treatment and full participation in society, which has a duty to create appropriate conditions for the systematic and consistent integration of the more vulnerable citizens into social activities. The priority of EU policies must be to integrate these marginalised citizens into working and social life by creating high-quality jobs.
Financial independence not only helps to increase a sense of satisfaction and self-reliance, but also greatly reduces the risk of poverty and social exclusion that disabled people are exposed to. For the reasons mentioned, I support the use of resources from the European Structural Funds for creating a barrier-free environment, and I will be voting for the adoption of the report on mobility and inclusion of people with disabilities."@en1
