EP - BULGARIA - ROMANIA - LABOUR MARKET

Brussels, January 25 (BTA) - Bulgarian MEP in the Group of the
European Peoples' Party (EPP) Martin Dimitrov submitted Thursday
in the European Parliament an official question to the European
Commission urging it to influence the member states to open
their labour markets to Bulgarians and Romanians. Dimitrov also
calls on the EC to initiate an information campaign explaining
to citizens the advantages of the free movement of workers,
EPP's press office said.

In reality the opening of the labour markets in some of the old
member states had a positive impact on the economy as a whole,
Dimitrov says.

УI am looking forward to the answer of the European Commission.
The choice of most of the member states to impose restrictions
on the access of Bulgarian and Romanian workers to their labour
markets is unjustified. As the driving force of the single
internal market the EC has to explain to the European citizens
that the Bulgarians and Romanians pose no threat to their jobs
and to stimulate member states to open their labour markets,Ф
Dimitrov says.
