"The new Agenda for New Skills and Jobs marks an important step towards achieving the objectives which the EU has set for itself as part of the Europe 2020 strategy. Member States are responsible for achieving these objectives, which is why they must respond effectively to the current challenges. I think that significant investments are required in education, as well as in research and development. The necessary incentives also need to be offered to citizens to help them update their skills and allow them to adapt to the new requirements of the labour market. Furthermore, measures need to be adopted to reduce the school dropout rate, and Member States must offer pupils alternative forms of training and apprenticeships. The integration of young people into the labour market must be supported while they are still studying. Efforts need to be stepped up with the aim of recognising diplomas and professional qualifications of citizens, both across the EU and in third countries. Last but not least, I think that we need measures to guarantee conditions conducive to creating jobs on the labour market, especially by reducing the administrative burdens and labour-related taxes, in order to facilitate economic recovery and protect the EU’s competitiveness."@en1
