"Mr President, I apologise for my late arrival. I had a meeting in Sweden late last night and have only just arrived. I do not know what has been discussed already but let me start by saying that we naturally welcome the social package. We think that it is a little bit late and that it could have been launched earlier in the term, but at least we have got it now. It is clear that ambitions in the European Parliament are somewhat greater than those in the package, but I would nevertheless like to highlight three positive elements which we can work on.
I personally work a great deal with the judgments of the European Court of Justice and their consequences. I welcome the more open attitude we are now seeing in the Commission, such as the forum which is now to be held. I hope it will be a success.
Another positive thing is the ILO Convention, which is also linked to the judgments of the European Court of Justice, in that the Member States are urged to sign the ILO Convention.
Thirdly, the social integration programme, which will be presented in October and the fight against poverty, exclusion, etc. I hope that we will be able to work on these issues successfully together. They are incredibly important."@en1
