"Social services of general interest make a very significant contribution in terms of jobs, accounting for 9.6% of EU employment, economic activity and quality of life for the citizens of the Union. Hitherto, European legislation on these services has been partial, dealing only with aspects relating to the right to compete, and inconsistent, being subject to various interpretations by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and the Commission. As well as providing a secure and flexible framework for these services, it is also important to approach them from an economic and political perspective. Indeed, our societies have chosen to establish social institutions that protect citizens against the vicissitudes of the market. Since there are as many programmes implementing these services as there are Member States of the Union, the report takes a pragmatic view, which is particularly coherent given this vast subject. Defending the model of a social market economy whose social services of general interest are essential tools, I voted in favour of this report."@en1
