"Mr President, it is true that in the past months the continuous commitment of Commissioner Frattini together with the priority that is being given by the Portuguese Presidency is producing some results, notwithstanding the formidable bureaucracy and the tangible lack of solidarity in some aspects, which delayed the efficacy of a number of initiatives. However, this tragic issue deserves a common European policy that urgently addresses fundamental ‘issues’, including: the adoption of ‘burden-sharing’ policies between all the Member States, the revision of Dublin II as proposed in paragraph 18 of the Sánchez report, adequate financial support or support of another kind, including capital provision for infrastructure projects, as well as an assessment of the viability, or otherwise, of developing centres such as job centres in countries of origin and transit, the development of a realistic return policy, the implementation of timely integration policy and the fight against organised crime involving trafficking in people, as well as xenophobia and racism. Unfortunately we do not have a European agency based in the Mediterranean to develop this common policy on immigration and asylum. Frontex can never fulfil the role if its terms of reference do not change substantially. Finally, Mr President, I would like to thank the two rapporteurs who showed us in concrete terms how backward the Union is in this respect. They addressed the rights and dignity of the immigrants that are frequently the victims of political repression, poverty and organised crime, as well as the difficulties faced by small Member States such as Malta that carry a disproportionate weight, frequently without any real solidarity."@en1
