"The report holds that the lack of mobility of workers between Member States is an obstacle to the functioning of the internal market. It therefore presents and promotes a complex framework of migrant workers’ rights with a view to concrete implementation of the principle of free movement.
We oppose the report, as its application would result in a considerable burden on Member State budgets for costs of training, learning, language support, health care and education for migrant workers and their families. Furthermore, we believe that workers coming from countries where the cost of living is lower would create situations of unfair competition compared with workers in countries with different living standards.
For example, a building firm coming from Romania to Italy in order to find work would be happy to accept 35-40% less than local firms, thus resulting in market distortion. Free and complete movement of workers between Member States can only take place when the cost of living and working is the same throughout the European Union."@en1
