Ms Angelilli asked a question on the exclusion of social services and how this should be interpreted.
Some social services have been excluded from the directive, but not all. Moreover, I should like to remind you that an amendment on the exclusion of all such services was rejected by Parliament. I do not believe that my services have informed me of any issues regarding the application of the directive to social services.
The specific nature of some services, such as those which you mentioned, is recognised and taken into account by safeguards set out in the directive. The directive does not address the issue of the funding of these services. The conditions set by Member States to ensure that these services indeed fulfil their social function are not covered by its scope.
Thus, Ms Angelilli, the directive does not prevent Member States from conserving their authorisation systems which are substantiated by social policy objectives, for example for the opening of crèches. These objectives may relate to the protection of minors or vulnerable people.
I think it is fair to say that it is logical that the directive’s implementation should not create problems for social services, such as those, if I understood correctly, that you highlighted."@en1
