lpv:translated text	". Although the directive on a single application procedure for a residence and work permit is far from being ideal or complete, I voted in favour of it nonetheless. I regret the shortcomings concerning seasonal workers, posted workers, the right to change employer and the right to enter and re-enter, because these subgroups will be protected in other (future) legislation. All in all, this directive is extremely important given that it is the first of its kind to grant a common set of minimum rights (including salary rights, equal treatment at work, pension rights and access to health care) to workers from third countries who are legally resident in Europe, which it does on the basis of equal treatment with national workers of Member States. In addition, the directive provides for a system with a single simplified application procedure for a residence and work permit. This scheme is far from a complete common immigration policy, but in view of increasing immigration flows, the constantly changing demand for foreign labour and the prevention of abuse and discrimination in this regard, this first form of protection is essential. Third-country workers will now receive greater protection than has been the case. Taken as a whole, this was the deciding factor for my ‘yes’ vote."@en1
