lpv:translated text	"Europe needs multilingualism in order to survive. The first European Community Directive in 1958 refers to multilingualism. The Union does not use just one or several languages of its own choosing, which the majority of its citizens might not understand. Translations of legislative, political and administrative documents enable the Union to fulfil its legal obligations. Multilingualism contributes to improving the transparency, legitimacy and efficiency of the Union. The restrictions caused by the multilingual regime have positive a influence on documents, which are more concise and produced within a given time frame. On behalf of the Slovak language (and those who use it), I am calling for the measures needed to solve the problem of the lack of jobs for translators in the EU institutions to be included in the budget for 2009. I ask the European Parliament to translate without delay, and to continue translating, all legislative, political and administrative documents from this term into Slovak and into all the other official languages of the Union, so that the citizens can monitor the political activities of all the institutions, the most important being the verbatim reports of proceedings of the parliamentary debates. I am putting it on record that I am making a written declaration in favour of the preservation of the multilingual regime, and I call on the Slovak translators and interpreters to contribute, via their linguistic knowledge, to multilingualism in Europe."@en1
