"Madam President, the Committee on Petitions is an extremely important tool for ensuring that the public is able to draw the attention of the European Union institutions to administrative irregularities in the Member States. Each year Parliament receives an increasing number of complaints from Poland, including those submitted via MEPs, among which instances of blatant discrimination by authorities in other Member States stand out in particular. I would like to refer here, primarily, to the activities of the German Child and Youth Welfare Office (Jugendamt), whose care policy is a source of great controversy. I welcome the fact that the Committee on Petitions has taken action in this regard and I hope to see some results. A considerable number of petitions concern matters relating to the activities of the internal market, which also shows how important it is for us to work on systematically improving how it operates and on increasing the level of protection enjoyed by citizens. I support the call for decisive action with regard to waste management, including in the aim of preventing the emergence of illegal waste dumps in cross-border areas. I am in favour of this report."@en1
