lpv:translated text	"We voted against this report, in keeping with all our earlier positions relating to the infamous Bolkestein Directive and its unacceptable aims of facilitating the liberalisation of services, including public services, to favour the interests of economic and financial groupings within the European Union, at a cost of increased unemployment and inferior services provided to the respective users, as is already plainly visible within sectors that have gone down this road. This report seeks to put pressure on Member States that have not advanced as rapidly as the majority of Members of the European Parliament would like – to protect the interests of European economic groupings – in transposing Directive 2006/123/EC on services in the internal market. This directive came into force on 28 December 2006 and aims, as stated within this report, ‘to open up the market to service providers in the European Union, phase out the Member States’ protectionist barriers on the exercise of service activities and fulfil the principle of free movement, the basis for the common market’. What was required, though, was an objective assessment of the consequences of implementing the liberalisation and subsequent privatisation of services, in some cases, essential public services, in order to return to an uncompromising defence of the rights of people and workers."@en1
