"The EU 2020 strategy demonstrates that social policy is a fundamental priority for Europe. However, more needs to be done to make improvements in this area and it is for this reason that I supported this report. The report calls for the elimination of forced labour as well as the abolition of child labour, and also highlights the need for more focus on the protection of workers’ rights. Non-member countries must adhere to basic principles such as these if the EU is to work and trade with them. Member States must also cooperate with partner countries to ensure the protection of vulnerable groups and to fight gender discrimination as well as discrimination on grounds of ethnicity, religion, age and disability. I hope that the Commission will come forward with some concrete proposals which will bring about improved labour and social standards, as well as proposals to promote corporate social responsibility in its external polices."@en1
