"I wish to lodge a protest on behalf of Polish nurses and midwives about the European Commission’s plans to introduce legislation that would discriminate against Polish nurses to the advantage of nurses from other Member States. The Polish authorities competent in such matters have the right and duty to determine the length of training in accordance with the requirements set out in the Directive, and to recognise qualifications on the basis of standard acquired rights. Polish nurses are demanding that Article 4(b) of Directive 77/452/EEC be deleted, and that Article 31(2) of the new proposal, which is intended to replace it, also be deleted, as they both contradict the fundamental tenets of Community law. They have proposed that professional degrees and bachelor degrees be added to the list of qualifications in the Annex to the Directive. Polish nurses should of course work in their home country, where they were trained. Yet the country has been left in such a disastrous state, firstly by the totalitarian and communist regime, and then by the present liberal government, that some Poles have been forced to emigrate as a result of unemployment, or because even those who find employment are paid starvation wages of EUR 200, with prices in Poland being comparable to those elsewhere in the European Union."@en1
