lpv:translated text	"Thank you, Madam President and thank you, Minister Malmström for your response. I would also like to thank Sweden, because it was precisely during the Swedish Presidency that the EU’s Council of Ministers ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities. This is a great step, but it is only one step. In truth, the lives of our disabled vary incredibly from country to country. Some deaf people are unable to use sign language, while some blind people do not have access to blind assistance services. There are no adjustments for persons with movement disabilities. Also, a significant number of disabled people are simply unemployed. All this when disabled people actually account for around 10% of our residents in the European Union. Minister, I know that there are certain problems and difficulties with the directive on anti-discrimination (this is how I would summarise it), but perhaps it would be possible to have a separate directive on the rights of the disabled sooner. Our directive would be binding for all EU Member States, so that disabled people would not face discrimination."@en1
