"Commissioner, we appear to be condemned, you and I, to discussing the same question every three or six months. It is like chestnut trees in Paris, to borrow an expression from journalism.
My question is this: you originally told me – I have all the information here and I do not suppose that you will question it – that it would be all done and dusted in 2001. That is what you told me in September 2000, a year ago. Obviously, you do not lie. Obviously, you were given that information and this assurance. Now you tell me that you have been informed, but not assured I hope, that it will be all done and dusted in 2003, with a few extras ‘tacked on’ in 2005. What I should like to ask is who is to blame, Commissioner? Are you in a position to point a finger at who is to blame for this situation? Because this is no way to conduct a policy to combat employment and the periodic employment statistics published by Eurostat are making a laughing stock of my country because the column headed Greece is always blank. This is no longer acceptable."@en1
