"Mr President, I think that the Commission’s position on the Services Directive is along the right lines. The criticism has been listened to. A few things are, however, unclear, for example concerning the labour market. Do you share my view that it is not enough to grant exemptions through the Directive on the posting of workers? Instead, the whole of the labour market should be exempted, in which case the host country principle should apply, should it not? If, now, the labour market is exempted and the host country principle applies to environmental standards, consumer law and so on, then I wonder, secondly, how, in drafting a directive, it can be thought that the basic principle should be the country of origin principle. Perhaps it is the most important areas in which, instead, the host country principle should apply. The third question I should like to put concerns services of general interest. I think it good that health and health care, together with social services, are to be exempt. Can you be clear about which areas you are thinking of when you talk about the scope of the directive?"@en1
