en	The Directive on the recognition of professional qualifications sets out the most that can be required of health professionals wishing to move within the EU; it does not oblige the Member States to impose restrictions as regards recognition procedures and therefore does not prevent Member States from taking a more liberal approach to the treatment of incoming health professionals, be it for purposes of service provision or establishment, for instance by dropping the requirement for a prior declaration and prior check for qualifications or applying shorter deadlines for handling of applications, requesting fewer documents than usual, no certified translations or not insisting on a compensation measure when the host Member State considers that there is no major risk for patient safety.
mt	Id-Direttiva dwar ir-Rikonoxximent ta' Kwalifiki Professjonali tistabbilixxi l-aktar li jista' jkun meħtieġ minn professjonisti tas-saħħa li jixtiequ jiċċaqalqu fi ħdan l-UE; ma tobbligax lill-Istati Membri jimponu restrizzjonijiet fir-rigward ta' proċeduri ta' rikonoxximent u għalhekk ma twaqqafx lill-Istati Membri milli jieħdu approċċ aktar liberali lejn it-trattament ta' professjonisti tas-saħħa li jkunu deħlin, kemm għal skopijiet ta' forniment ta' servizzi kif ukoll għal skopijiet ta' stabbiliment ta' servizzi, pereżempju billi jitneħħa r-rekwiżit għal dikjarazzjoni minn qabel u kontroll minn qabel għal kwalifiki, billi jiġu applikati skadenzi iqsar għat-trattament ta' applikazzjonijiet, billi jintalbu inqas dokumenti mis-soltu, billi ma tintalab l-ebda traduzzjoni ċċertifikata jew billi ma tintalabx miżura ta' kumpens meta l-Istat Membru ospitanti jqis li ma hemm l-ebda riskju kbir għas-sikurezza tal-pazjenti.
