Mr Becker has provided us with a report on the Social Business Initiative – Creating a favourable climate for social enterprises, key stakeholders in the social economy and innovation. I would like to begin by acknowledging the work of all these institutions in minimising the negative impacts of the crisis – we are aware of its consequences but have not paid much attention to problems of a social nature – as well as the contribution that they have made to help Europe emerge from this. These enterprises, the aim of which is not immediate profit but improvement in the living conditions of the most vulnerable classes, currently represent 6 % of all European Union workers, many of whom are young people. The Europe 2020 strategy should respond to the lack of social services given the ongoing demographic trends and an ageing population. This is a sector that deserves our full support and therefore should benefit from a special tax regime to have easier access to funding. I voted in favour of this report because it deals with a special form of entrepreneurship that not only promotes economic growth but is also socially engaged."@en1
