lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I would like to thank both the ministers from Sweden, as well as the Commission, for their comments. Some people describe Europe as a Europe which locks people out. They term it ‘Fortress Europe’. Those of us who want to create a humane Europe, which takes into account people with a need for protection, and who are seeking a humane asylum and refugee policy use the concepts of freedom, justice and security. I share the view of the Commission and the presidency that the current deficiencies in the field of asylum and refugees are linked to the problem that we have no common policy. At the moment, there are different policies in different countries. The policy we have to develop must be based on international conventions, needs for protection and family reunification. I also noted that, when it came to carriers’ liability, debated by Parliament at length during the last part-session, the presidency was to the opinions of Parliament. At least that is the way I clearly understood it. I also think that we should distinguish between immigration of labour, and asylum and refugee policy. The latter is based on people’s need for protection. The former is based on the fact that we are suddenly realising that we will have a shortage of labour in the years to come, and here we are considering our need for labour. In this context, we talk far too little about integration policy, as linked to asylum and refugee policy is an integration policy where we look after those people who come here with a need for protection. Today, however, we are seeing these people remain largely outside society, that they do not have the same rights and that they are not utilised on the labour market. They tend to be found among the 14 million unemployed. Before we talk about the immigration of labour – it is possible that there may be a question of this – I would primarily like to see us emphasising integration policy and a common asylum and immigration policy."@en1
