". I voted against this resolution on freedom of movement for workers within the EU. This text aimed to open EU Member States’ labour markets completely to Romanian and Bulgarian workers. This resolution, which was added to the plenary agenda, was not examined at all beforehand within the relevant committee. Member States have until 31 December of this year to take the opportunity provided by the Treaties to postpone the full opening of their labour market by two years. With this resolution, though, the European Parliament is expressing its desire to see the barriers to the full free movement of Romanian and Bulgarian workers lifted by the end of this year. That is why I voted against it. I am, of course, in favour of the free movement of workers within the EU area, but the unprecedented crisis that we are currently experiencing and the significantly high unemployment levels, affecting young people in particular, force us to target all of our efforts at national level to get our citizens back on the path to employment."@en1
