"I voted for this report. The issue of labour migration within the EU has long been perceived as a potential problem for disbalances at national level in terms of shortages of labour supply, as well as affecting collective bargaining and wages within host countries. Although the notion of ‘free movement of workers’ has been present in the Treaties as a guarantee for the completion of the single market, and for the strengthening of a true European identity, Member States have been granted the right to maintain provisional barriers for transitional periods in terms of opening the labour market for new Member States. Historically, fears have always been focused on two main aspects: numerous inflows of immigrants from poorer countries coming into the more prosperous ones and losses of jobs for the nationals of the host countries or, in a better scenario, a drop in the level of salaries. However, recent studies have shown that these fears have never been justified and that, on the contrary, labour migration has had a beneficial effect for the EU as a whole"@en1
