lpv:translated text	"This is a report full of contradictions. On the one hand, it uses very complimentary language about older people. On the other hand, however, it puts forward basic measures that, in practice, put the rights of older people and of workers in general at risk. Some examples of this are: encouraging private pension systems, thus prioritising the financial sector and forgetting the serious consequences that these practices have already had, notably in the United States, where they left millions of pensioners destitute, forcing the state to intervene; encouraging state intervention to increase part-time work and flexible work, brushing aside the consequences of these practices, such as the devaluing of labour, low wages, precarious work, and increased numbers of workers with incomes below the poverty line; encouraging an increase in the age at which the pension can be claimed. We voted against the report for all these reasons, although we acknowledge that it has certain positive aspects, which are, however, threatened by the neoliberal policies that the report advocates."@en1
