". Following the shipwreck of the concerns have been growing about maritime safety. I share these concerns because my country has a long coastline, which is highly dependent on maritime resources. For these reasons and because these problems also affect other countries in the European Union, the Jarzembowski report on port services warrants our full consideration. With regard to the regulations on pilotage, I think that it makes sense to remove these from the scope of this decision. Every Member State must be able, for reasons of public interest, to maintain the current system, taking account of specific local characteristics. This report is marked by the way in which it maintains a degree of balance between liberalising port services and demonstrates ongoing concern for social legislation on worker protection, maritime safety and environmental protection in sensitive regions. This balance has already been achieved in the liberalisation of air and rail transport. With regard to social and labour legislation, the rights of workers in EU ports must be safeguarded. I therefore support the opinion of the rapporteur advocating greater protection for these workers, not forgetting the need to maintain qualified personnel in ports and insisting on measures for the training of crew members."@en1
