lpv:translated text	"Mr President, this report argues that a self-employed frontier worker who becomes unemployed is entitled to receive unemployment benefits in the competent Member State if no such benefits exist in the Member State of residence. We believe this measure is worthwhile in that it seeks to apply the more advanced of two countries’ social security legislations. Nonetheless, this measure should not legitimise the existence of the so-called false self-employed; in other words, workers who hold permanent jobs. Such illegal situations should definitely not be legitimised but, instead, eradicated by creating job contracts with rights. Inspections are extremely important for achieving that. According to the second amendment, aircrew workers register with the social security system of their home base. We believe, however, that there should be some control over where businesses are registered, so that companies cannot register themselves in countries where social security payments are lower so as to cut costs. Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to tell you something: at a time when we are witnessing an unprecedented attack on the social security system in my country, Portugal, we wish to make it clear that we will not agree with any attempt to harmonise social security in the European Union or with recommendations that the Commission has been imposing, such as the White Paper on pensions, which advocates raising the retirement age and paves the way for private insurance systems, so as to do away with the public social security system. At a time when we are witnessing a pension freeze in Portugal, as well as wholesale cuts in holiday allowances and Christmas bonuses and a reduction in benefits, we wish to reaffirm that we will not accept the social security privatisation route and will defend a public social security system based on the principles of solidarity and universality."@en1
