lpv:translated text	"I welcome the Commission’s proposal to designate 2010 the European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion. Poverty is a problem both in the EU and worldwide. I would like to highlight some acute aspects of poverty and social exclusion on which we should focus much more attention than we used to. First of all, simply by eliminating child poverty we would be able to escape the vicious circle of generations condemned to a life of poverty and social exclusion. Secondly, nearly 10% of workers experience poverty because of low wages, part-time employment and low qualifications. It is essential to promote quality employment based on educating employees. Thirdly, it is vital to promote solidarity within society, making all its members aware of the issues of poverty and social exclusion. I would like to encourage all EU institutions and Member States to provide the members of society with more detailed information on combating poverty and social exclusion in order to increase the sense of common responsibility and help disperse the prejudice of being a financial burden on society."@en1
