"Mr President, I would like to start by thanking the rapporteur, Mr Giegold, because he involved both the shadow rapporteurs and the rapporteurs for the opinions in the work right from the start, and not only that, he involved us to such an extent that we were able to develop the content of the report together. He mentioned that there are only 17 European Cooperative Societies, and that is what we are recording in 2012, the Year of Cooperatives. That is obviously very few. It means that this European Cooperative Society has not been a great success. Yet, why is that?
I think it is very important to pinpoint the reason for this. Is it the provisions that are too complex, or is there actually any need for this cross-border cooperation after all? With this report, we are trying to promote and breathe life into the cooperatives of the social economy, and not those that are already able to operate in a profit-orientated way anyway.
Finally, I would like to point out the very considerable importance of the right of employees to participate contained in this report, and mention how important it is to treat this with kid gloves in the future, too."@en1
