lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I would also like to congratulate Mr Coelho. Free movement within the Union is one of the most cherished achievements for this House and for many citizens in the European Union. The rules which regulate the free movement of persons within the Union are Community rules. Many of the measures it has been necessary to establish in order to guarantee it are scattered around our legislation. To guarantee this free movement requires a high degree of trust and cooperation between the Member States, particularly in the management of external borders. There is plenty of information on the reality of the situation to demonstrate that we have difficulties here, including the arrival on the coasts of the south of the European Union of people who hope that this will be the first stage of a journey but for whom it is often dramatically the last, the women rescued on a daily basis from their captors and exploiters, who offer them to Europeans who ask no questions about their origin, or the tragic spectacle we have witnessed for months in relation to the Sangatte centre. We believe that the European Commission has raised the need to deal with this issue correctly and in a timely manner. Firstly, because the enlargement of the European Union obliges us to do so. Secondly, because their proposal is a good signal to the Convention that it should resolve the legislative mess involving one of the Union’s fundamental distinguishing marks; internal free movement. Thirdly, because it presents today, with the legal framework we have – and perhaps also the financial framework – the possibility of making progress on this objective. I agree with the notion that there is room to better guarantee both the freedom of security of those people who are in Community territory and the situation of those who wish to pass through it. Therefore, and despite our extremist tendencies, the Socialist Group will vote in favour of the Pirker report. I hope that the enthusiasm and broad support of this House are contagious and that the Council will go beyond its political declarations and actively and enthusiastically support this proposal."@en1
