Hr. formand, først vil jeg takke fru Oomen-Ruijten for hendes fremragende betænkning, hvor hun endnu en gang her i Parlamentet forsvarer vandrende arbejdstagere, herunder grænsearbejdere, for der findes ikke noget reelt Europa, før vi afskaffer de praktiske forhindringer, som dem, der skal over grænsen hver morgen for at komme på arbejde i en anden medlemsstat, døjer med.
Mr President, first I want to thank Mrs Oomen-Ruijten for her excellent report, in which she once again defends before this House the rights of migrant workers, including frontier workers. For Europe will not truly exist until we have removed the practical obstacles which confront those people who have to cross a border every morning in order to go to work in another Member State.
