"Madam President, approval of the directive on the introduction of measures to encourage improvements in the safety and health at work of pregnant workers and workers who have recently given birth or are breastfeeding is fresh in our minds. This is the so-called Maternity Leave Directive. The European Parliament amended the text of the directive so much that, after almost three years, it is almost impossible to find a consensus between the institutions, and that is to the disadvantage of EU citizens. Looking at signals from the European Commission and the Council, I am convinced that this text will meet a similar fate. If we strip people naked in airports because we suspect that they have explosives under their dresses or trousers, they will stop using aircraft. You are now presenting a text requiring institutions, agencies and other bodies to parade naked in front of the world. It is refreshing and new, but not very helpful. I would support it only if the aim was to put people off a federal Europe."@en1
