lpv:translated text	"Once again, the guidelines used as a basis by the Commission via the Annual Growth Survey for 2012 do not prioritise the interests of Union citizens. On the contrary, they promote the same failed neoliberal policies that caused the crisis and, on the pretext of fiscal restructuring, imposed harsh austerity measures. Recovery and viable growth do not go hand in hand with austerity or with recession or with unemployment and poverty, which are basically being institutionalised. The European Parliament report is fully in keeping with those guidelines. It confines itself to calling for the European Parliament to be involved in the Annual Growth Survey if the Treaty is revised. Unfortunately, however, the problem with the Annual Growth Survey is not just a problem of democratic legitimisation which can simply be resolved by involving the European Parliament in the procedure; it is a highly political problem to do with the neoliberal policies which it imposes and the overriding economic and development model which it promotes. The only solution for recovery from the crisis is to overturn these policies and to apply alternative policies with the objective of economic efficacy, social and environmental justice and viable growth. It is for all these reasons that I voted against the report."@en1
