"Madam President, we find ourselves in an extraordinary economic crisis and it is really time for the EU to focus on its real priorities. Delivery of the single market is absolutely key to that, and free movement of workers is a fundamental building block of that single market.
Enhancing mobility for professionals will boost economic growth, so simplification and speeding up of processes must be our goal.
We need to increase confidence in recognition processes. Part of that will be looking at the language question. As the report actually calls for a revision of the existing requirements by providing competent authorities with the flexibility to ascertain and test the language skills of professionals, it will alleviate that problem. The alert mechanism will also help make sure that cases such as Dr Ubani do not happen again.
We need to balance the needs of professionals against those of patients and consumers alike, easing recognition and facilitating mobility whilst not compromising the standards of service and safety for our citizens.
I look forward to the Commission’s proposal. I hope you take on the concerns and the calls from Parliament in the report. We must get this right because it is time to deliver."@en1
