"In favour. Our key points were maintained. These included: the importance of cooperatives and other social economy enterprises as part of the European social model with 160 000 cooperatives for around 5.4 million employees; strong criticism of the Commission for lack of resources (staff, coordination, activities) and action in the field, with a call for urgent improvement; the need for EU policies in all areas to recognise/respect the specificities and added value of social economy enterprises; criticism of the shortcomings of the Statute (SCE) and its lack of use with a call for more action/improvements; and an insistence that all stakeholders be involved in the revision process on the future of the Statute. The social economy stakeholders have followed the report attentively and fed into this. Sven Giegold has been seen as one of the key actors in this field. He called for an open method of coordination for the social economy, for a European Year of Social Economy and for better business support measures (consulting, training, funding access), especially for employee buy-outs. He stressed how Parliament’s recommendations on cooperatives were being largely ignored by the Commission and recalled that Parliament had previously called for the specificities to be recognised, the SME Observatory to include social economy enterprises in its surveys, for better dialogue and for a better legal framework."@en1
