"I voted against this report because the rapporteur’s initial proposal has been distorted, and positions have been included that urge the application of measures that were at the root of the crisis. It also calls for penalties for Member States that do not comply with the Stability and Growth Pact. Although it has kept the odd proposal here and there in the social field, its general direction is negative. By contrast, the proposals that we were endorsing in the plenary sitting were rejected, specifically in the following areas: The rejection of the Commission’s recent legislative proposals on economic governance, including penalties – which will have depressive effects on the already weak growth rates in the Member States – while advocating an ambitious European plan of investments to foster jobs. The welcoming of the widespread participation in the European day of mobilisation against austerity and insecurity organised by the unions on 29 September 2010, stressing its important political significance and expressing support for their demands, demanding secure jobs for a living wage, strong social protection and protection of purchasing power, the guarantee of better pensions, and the guarantee of high quality public and social services that are accessible to all. The strong condemnation of the role played by tax havens in encouraging and carrying out fraud, tax evasion and capital flight."@en1
