lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I shall carry on where Mr Őry left off, because I wish to express the same concerns and satisfactions, and I too would like to congratulate the committee, the rapporteur, Mrs Oomen-Ruijten, on having been so brave and having walked into this minefield with conviction and with the will to move forward and to remove the obstacles that we have been facing. It is crucial that our words are consistent with our actions. It is crucial that we remove the obstacles to the mobility and free movement of workers. We have said it, Lisbon has said it and the Council has said it a thousand times, but we are making no progress. It is also crucial to respect and safeguard the rights of workers who are mobile and who move within the Community and within our own countries. I would therefore like to express my concern at the difficulties within the Council and the difficulties that may also arise in Parliament today. I am concerned, firstly, because, once again, the Council is dashing our reasonable and minimal hopes. Minimal progress is being blocked as a result of national issues and national self-interest. I am worried because this is not the first time, nor will it be the last time, that the ladies and gentlemen of the Council have turned a deaf ear to the demands of the Europeans. I am worried because it is said that the work that Parliament has done is going to serve as a basis for subsequent work, when Parliament’s consensuses do not do any good in terms of unblocking the Council's positions. I am worried because those same problems in the Council are being transferred to Parliament and we are having a difficult vote today. Let us hope, Mrs Oomen-Ruijten, that the amendments intended to restrain your report do not succeed and that your reasonable and minimal report is supported by everybody and can serve as a basis for continued progress, which Europe needs very much and which is being demanded by the citizens, of whose views our governments do not take sufficient notice."@en1
