lpv:translated text	"( ) The aim of this proposal, according to the Commission, is to improve the framework conditions for business in the EU’s internal market. The proposal will achieve this by giving enterprises the ability to freely choose the EU Member State in which to have their registered address, regardless of where their actual operations take place, and for them only to be obliged to comply with the laws of the country in which they have their registered address. This will open the way for the circumvention of hard-won workers’ rights in the EU Member States. The truth is specific. Allow me to be specific. A Danish company with a registered address in Copenhagen and 35 employees is, under Danish law, obliged to accept the workers appointing representatives to the management of the enterprise. This ensures that the workers get some insight into the position and future of the enterprise. If the proposal that has been submitted is adopted unchanged, the company in question could simply register itself as a European company based in Finland. Suddenly, 150 employees are required in order to obtain employee representation. In most other EU Member States, the situation is even worse. Perhaps the Commission’s proposal will be improved slightly in the forthcoming negotiations. Perhaps the text that is finally adopted will not be so bad. In any case, we should ask ourselves the question ‘why’? Why does the Commission time and again submit proposals, the only objective of which is to reduce the rights of workers? Could it perhaps be that there is something fundamentally wrong with the EU?"@en1
