"Madam President, I strongly support this excellent report by my Labour colleague, Robert Evans. It offers yet further proof of Labour's commitment to create a Europe for our citizens. The aim of the programme is to allow people to take advantage of moving across Europe by extending mobility within the EU for students, young volunteers and teachers. This offers educational opportunities and encourages people to take on active role in society across Europe. It is a crucial development following last year's Action Plan of concrete measures identifying obstacles to mobility. It is also an important measure for the efficient functioning of the European single market. The Labour Government is determined to make the single market work for British people, not just for business. By introducing greater steps towards student and volunteer mobility, people will feel more confident to work and travel not just across Britain but also right across Europe. Such a scheme can inspire civic values, is highly educational and an excellent advertisement for the European Union among its most important citizens, the young. This is vital when we remember that, in Britain at least, turnout among young people at the last European elections was among the lowest in the EU. Practical experience of Europe, not media prattle on Europe, is a far more reliable and inspiring source of knowledge on Europe for young people."@en1
