lpv:translated text	". Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in its handling of the services directive, the Commission has leapt out from under the shadow that suddenly overspread it again last week. Commissioner McCreevy, my dear Charlie, as rapporteur and on behalf of my group, let me say how pleased I am that the Commission has kept the promise it made to this House and has done as it was bidden by the overwhelming majority in the plenary. I know that it took hours of work by the yesterday, but the most important law in Europe – second only to the Constitution – is now on the right track. We can accompany it down that road, or ought it to be said that the Commission is following where Parliament leads? What we can say is that a crucial step has been taken in the direction of a social Europe, and I can tell the Commissioner that I am particularly pleased that the main bone of contention – the country of origin principle – has been binned. That is the greatest breakthrough as we work towards a social Europe. I am also very glad that you have done as this House has proposed and removed from the scope of the services directive such important areas as part-time working, security firms, the gambling industry and the whole of the health sector, although there is still a question mark over the exclusion of social services, and we will have to have further discussions on how the Commission's thinking in this respect is actually to be evaluated and interpreted. I am also glad that, contrary to what had formerly been feared, the services directive will be treated as secondary to the sectoral directives, something that this House saw as important, particularly in relation to the Posting of Workers Directive. I see what we have achieved as a major success for the people, for the social Europe, and, not least, for this House. By it, we, its Members, have demonstrated that we take seriously our rights in the service of the public. Matters are now in the hands of the Council of Ministers. Just how quickly we get proper legislation will depend on them."@en1
