lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Commissioner, reality has borne out our frequent warnings that the implementation of the Lisbon Strategy only prioritised liberalisations and the flexibility of the labour market. Alongside the Stability and Growth Pact, this is having a detrimental impact in the social field, affecting women in particular. Stating that urgent measures must be taken to promote jobs, high-quality jobs and the social inclusion of women in order to achieve the Lisbon objectives is simply not enough. What is needed is to reverse the policies that are jeopardising equal rights and fomenting discrimination against women, especially in the workplace. As such, in addition to increased unemployment among women affected by the restructuring and relocation of multinationals and by industrial sectors affected by the liberalisation of internal trade, such as textiles, clothing, footwear and many others, the new jobs being created are increasingly precarious, badly paid and discriminatory, and fail to respect the rights of female employees. Even so, within the scope of the so-called ‘Lisbon Strategy’, there are new proposals for a directive on the table that may exacerbate discrimination against women, worsen the unemployment situation and deepen social exclusion still further. These include the proposal for a directive on the organisation of working time and the notorious Bolkestein Directive on the liberalisation of the services sector. For this reason, it is impossible to go on claiming to be defending women’s rights while systematically undermining those rights, be it via the broad economic policy guidelines, or via policies and measures aimed at creating an internal market. Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, it is crucial that, at the very least, the Community institutions and the Member States take this report on board."@en1
