lpv:translated text	"This report repeats the European Commission’s standard rhetoric on issues of lifelong learning and promotion of mobility at EU level, which are considered to be the best guarantee against unemployment, and the need for workers to improve their ‘employability’ and ‘adaptability’, so as to organise the supply of education and training. However, the report fundamentally emphasises the role of vocational training in promoting entrepreneurship and the need to ‘create an environment where enterprises can succeed, develop and grow’, adding that ‘to grow, they need a reduced tax burden and predictability so they can plan and make investments’. It also believes that vocational training and lifelong learning must be geared more closely ‘to the needs of the labour market and allow for entry into and mobility within it’. In other words, what the report does is put education and training fully at the beck and call of European capitalism. Moreover, it fails to mention the social reasons that lead to early school drop-out, to a lack of access to higher education opportunities and to youth unemployment, just so as to mask the responsibility of the neoliberal policies promoted by large companies and financial institutions. We therefore consider this report unacceptable. It does not examine the causes in depth, or seek solutions."@en1
