"On 14 September 2011, in Strasbourg voting took place on adoption of the motion for a resolution on an EU homelessness strategy. I think that homelessness and the social problems of those in poverty are important issues to which the EU should pay more attention. The right to dignified living conditions is a right guaranteed
by the Charter of Fundamental Rights, so we should take appropriate steps to prevent homelessness in the countries of the European Union. Homelessness is in fact one of the most severe forms of poverty and need, and in recent years many Member States have seen it increase.
In accordance with the principles of the resolution which has been adopted, Member States have been called on to end street homelessness by 2015. In addition, an ambitious integrated EU strategy to combat homelessness should be developed, underpinned by national and regional strategies and with the long-term aim of reducing homelessness in the context of a wider strategy of social integration. I think that a system to monitor progress in the fight against homelessness should be established, which would certainly contribute to its elimination. The above arguments persuaded me to vote in favour of the above resolution."@en1
