"Madam President, I am receiving reports that Greece is planning to detain any migrants, whether or not they have applied for asylum, who constitute what is known as a threat to public health. These are, for example, people who are carrying diseases or living in unsanitary conditions. I hear there are plans to build more detention centres. There is also talk of clean-up operations of streets and city centres. Racist and xenophobic tendencies are on the rise. Greece does not currently undertake legal responsibility for reception services and is therefore forcing third-country citizens to live in poverty only to then detain them for that very reason. Fortunately, the EU is helping to improve the situation. However, are these the sort of measures that the Commission had in mind? Is EU money being used to detain people? And will the Commission commit itself to combating the increase of discrimination and xenophobia? That will require special attention, particularly in these tough economic times."@en1
