"I welcomed this document, because it proposes establishing a working group to consider means of helping enterprises to provide social services. The working group could consider the relative merits of establishing a European Observatory or Resource Centre for social services of general interest (SSGI) to collect information from various sources in the Member States and to enable the exchange of good SSGI practice at national, regional and local levels, and seek to achieve broad consensus on steps to clarify legal obscurities and ambiguities regarding SSGI. I believe that it is necessary to examine how the Member States, when defining social services of general interest, can take account of gender-specific services, especially advisory and social services particularly designed for women and important services that contribute to women’s quality of life and equality, such as health services, particularly sexual and reproductive health services, education and the care of dependents. There is a need to promote innovations such as a Member State register of SSGI, a pilot scheme on care for the elderly, and action programmes based on the voluntary European Quality Framework. The working group should also consider how Member States can develop forms of home help including support for elderly and vulnerable persons, provided by both men and women, and reduce the negative impact on employment and pensions for those who take care of dependent family members."@en1
