lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I, too, should like to thank Mrs Jensen for a brilliant report. It is a good day today, for today’s vote should show that we are now all endorsing the fact that employment policy is not just something made behind desks at meetings of the Council of Ministers, but is something that must be rolled out among the people. Information must be provided about it, and the local authorities that are to help set these things in motion must also be involved. That is what we are voting on today. There are many good things in Mrs Jensen’s report. I would emphasise what we have agreed concerning the local dimension of employment policy. Gradually, we have got the Commission and the Council to realise that local and regional authorities, the social partners and non-profit organisations are important in the context of employment initiatives. Practical work aimed at getting people into employment is done locally. That is why room must be made for local players. However, support for local initiatives is required, for example, in the form of better information about what the common European employment policy is and what the objectives are. That is why it is important for us to put incentive measures in place and for us to appropriate some money to enable us to learn from each other’s methods and experiences. That, moreover, is what we are trying to do here today. That is why it is also disappointing that it has been difficult to get the Commission to agree to increasing the budget so that we might appropriate this money, and that is why we, in the Group of the Party of European Socialists, have naturally endorsed the need to increase the amount to EUR 55 million, and not EUR 50 million. I hope that we obtain broad support today and that the Commission and the Council are alert to the signal from Parliament today."@en1
