"Mr President, I would like to thank the rapporteur and I welcome the part of the report aimed at carrying out adjustments, because they are inevitable as Member States change practices and their legislation. Of course, I also particularly welcome the necessary amendments to the content of European Union legislation, which are essential to effectively and fully implement the right of free movement of workers for our citizens. The situation where self-employed workers work in a country where they have the right to unemployment benefit, but lose that right simply because they go to live in another country whose legislation does not provide for such benefits, is unacceptable in a European Union that promotes the free movement of workers. In its case-law, the European Court of Justice has also confirmed that people who have become unemployed in one Member State have the right to go and live in another Member State to seek work there and to continue to receive the unemployment benefit to which they are entitled. Most importantly, the right to social benefits cannot be restricted where these benefits are made up of social security contributions that workers who were formerly self-employed paid themselves."@en1
