lpv:translated text	"It is very important that Parliament has today voted in favour of the motion – which we endorse – to reject the Commission proposal that would exclude self-employed drivers of buses and lorries from the legislation that regulates working time in this profession. According to Parliament’s Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, whose position has been confirmed by this House, self-employed drivers must be subject to the same rules as employed workers for health and safety reasons and to ensure fair competition in the sector. The aim of the Commission proposal was to amend the 2002 directive on the organisation of the working time of persons performing mobile road transport activities. Parliament’s rejection of the Commission proposal was carried by 368 votes to 301, with 8 abstentions. With the rejection of this proposal, the 2002 directive (Directive 2002/15/EC) remains in force, according to which self-employed drivers are covered by the same rules as employees with effect from 23 March 2009. We consider this outcome extremely important for combating social dumping, for defending the right of workers in the sector to health and rest, and for improving road safety conditions."@en1
