"The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the European Convention on Human Rights and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union stress that disabled citizens must have access to the same goods and services as other citizens, and that existing physical or social barriers must be removed. I am voting for this report because it provides for the adoption of national policies and strategies directed at those 80 million people – in other words, some 16% of the total population of the European Union – that are in line with the European Disability Strategy and the targets of the Europe 2020 strategy. I believe that the civil and human rights of disabled people should be respected, and that it is appropriate to involve them in the consultation procedures launched by the European Commission, to encourage exchanges on the measures already adopted by the various Member States, to strengthen inter-generational solidarity amongst young people, and to facilitate free movement without barriers. The intention is to provide society with a sustainable vision based on an approach that respects human rights. Finally, I believe the new measures should be accompanied by a precise and strict timetable that enables the implementation of the aforementioned programme to be monitored, and the necessary corrective measures to be adopted wherever justified."@en1
