".
I abstained in the vote for the following reasons.
The report stresses that the next semester must put more emphasis on the employment policy. It states that reducing spending and improving competitiveness continue to be important but that the Commission must also focus on other issues, such as the growth targets of the Europe 2020 strategy and the fight against tax evasion.
The European Parliament urges the Commission to pay more attention to negative spill-over effects of individual members’ economic policies and calls on it to use EU legislation to prevent them. The report also asks the Commission to address the role of the EU budget in the European Semester, given that it is an integral part of the EU’s public spending.
Moreover, the Members of the European Parliament call on the Member States not to reduce the European budget, in line with the commitments made in the Compact for Growth and Jobs.
However, the text is full of controversial articles (concessions to the right), which prevented me from voting for it."@en1
