lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this resolution because freedom of movement of workers is one of the fundamental values of the European Union and one of its greatest achievements guaranteed by EU law, according to which citizens of an EU Member States may work in another EU Member State on the same terms as the citizens of that Member State. This is probably the most important right granted to persons and it is an essential component of both the single market and European citizenship. Although according to the European Commission’s Communication of 11 November 2011, workers from Romania and Bulgaria have had and continue to have a positive impact on the economies of all the Member States in which they work, some EU Member States still apply employment restrictions to citizens of Romania and Bulgaria. Thus, Member States which wish to extend the restrictions on citizens of those countries to entering the labour market must provide specific, detailed and appropriately justified reasons for any such extension. They must also clearly indicate what risks and labour market disruptions have arisen in their country because, if the reports of other Member States and the Commission are anything to go by, Bulgarian and Romanian workers have only a positive impact on the economy and have not caused any harm to the labour market. Moreover, the Commission must also take measures to end any remaining restriction to fundamental freedoms and to remove any obstacles to the free movement of workers throughout the European Union."@en1
