"The mutual evaluation process applied by the Member States for the purpose of assessing the operation of the single market is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a neutral practice, as it comes within the European Services Directive and basically takes its cue from it. Apart from its own shortcomings, such as the selection and composition of working parties solely by the European Commission, the mutual evaluation process is a basic means of applying the Services Directive, the reference point for which is the failed EU 2020 strategy and the Single Market Act.
The application of the Services Directive, also known as the Bolkestein Directive, will not bring about an increase in jobs and the development of SMEs, as it purports to do. By making even more cuts to labour and social rights, as a result of the liberalisation of the services market throughout Europe, it is strengthening the predominance of big business and, at the same time, exacerbating the impact of the crisis on European workers. That is why I voted against this particular report."@en1
