lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Poland supports the Constitutional Treaty. Do not listen to Polish politicians. Listen instead to public opinion in Poland. Over 60% of Poles support the Constitutional Treaty. If that is the case, what can we do to make sure it comes into force? The period of reflection is for the citizens and not for the European institutions. For them, it is time to get down to work. The Austrian Presidency can be proud of its many achievements, three of which I would like to point out today. First of all, there is Strasbourg. The optimism of Mozart’s music encouraged European politicians to be optimistic about the Constitution, something that is significant. Secondly, I think that the heeding of Parliament’s call for Council debates to be more transparent was a very important step and I congratulate the Austrian Presidency on this achievement. Thirdly, Mr Barnier’s report, which is one of the most interesting European documents to have been drawn up recently, will also stimulate debate. However, what should we do at this point? Right now, together with the Commission, we have to address two serious social problems. This is something the subsequent presidencies should also address. First of all we need to deal with the problem of immigrants in Europe and, secondly, the problem of Europe’s social dimension. They should become the focus of Community policy, of a common European policy. Finally, we need to ask what can be done to make the constitutional text possible? This lies in the hands of the European Commission. The third part of the Constitutional Treaty largely repeats treaties that have already been ratified. The European Commission should carry out a legal analysis and only the 25 or so amendments that have already been tabled should be included in the first part of the treaty and be subject to an immediate decision. This is a great task for the European institutions and I would like to express my faith in the Commission and the Presidency of the European Union."@en1
