lpv:translated text	". Ladies and gentlemen, Mr President, I welcome the European Commission’s work programme for 2008, which defines the future of the Union and the next steps in its development. I feel it is important to emphasise that the document must contain not only principles but also specific recommendations, in the interests of essential action in European politics, especially in the area of social policy. The emergence of ever-increasing immigration in recent years is a big challenge for all the countries of the EU. There are not yet any adequate answers for dealing with the social and economic problems related to this. I agree that the working papers include an integrated approach to migration and press for appropriate management of the movement of labour that is essential for economic development. Europe needs immigrant labour, but in spite of this they are regularly affected by discrimination and various atrocities. We cannot renounce the fundamental requirements of humanity and benevolence in our European migration policy. Reception programmes for refugees must include the employment, training and full integration of immigrants into European society at a human level, and above all the fight against xenophobia and racism. Legal migration must be supported, and at the same time effective action needs to be taken against illegal immigration and human trafficking. It would be necessary to prepare a common European refugee policy in order to achieve all this. Better, more comprehensible legislation, applied consistently, is necessary for this, and for the Union to win the confidence of citizens."@en1
