"To live and work in any Member State of the European Union is one of the fundamental freedoms of European citizens. However, only 2.3% of them actually reside in a Member State other than the one from which they originate. On the other hand, when asked about their intentions to take advantage of this freedom in the future, 17% of Europeans respond positively. Solutions need to be provided to the problems encountered by European citizens in this area, particularly with the current economic climate as it is. That is the logic behind the report by Mr Ungureanu, which I endorse. To determine the nature and extent of these problems, the text calls on the Commission to produce a scoreboard presenting the obstacles faced by workers wanting to settle in another Member State. I think that this is an excellent idea. As for what solutions can be provided, better recognition of professional qualification in the EU is absolutely vital. I am also looking forward to the Commission’s forthcoming legislative proposal on this matter. Equally, enabling migrant workers to enjoy portable social security rights is essential in ensuring that they effectively benefit from the prerogatives they have acquired."@en1
