lpv:translated text	"The Schengen Agreement is a treaty between European countries on the policy of freedom of movement of individuals within the Schengen area. Any person who is in possession of a document which proves that he legally resides in a Member State should be able to move freely within an area where there are no internal borders. However, not all countries are yet in compliance with their obligation to provide a residence permit to the nationals of third countries who are holders of this form of long-stay visa. For this reason, it is inconsistent that a student who has obtained a visa to take a course in Portugal should not have the option to go, for example, to Belgium to gather information from a specialised library for the writing of his thesis. For this reason, I voted in favour of the present report, bearing in mind that it is important to facilitate the freedom of movement within the Schengen area of nationals of third countries who legally reside in one of the Member States on the basis of a long-term type D visa provided by that Member State. I congratulate the rapporteur, Mr Coelho, for once more managing to achieve an agreement at first reading, which will allow this situation to be resolved before the Visa Code enters into force next month."@en1
