Discrimination

Question for written answer E-000867-14
to the Commission
Rule 117
Derek Roland Clark (EFD)

In the East Midlands city of Derby, the United Kingdom, the local council has given a private employment agency GBP 118 000 specifically to find jobs for people from Romania and Bulgaria. They do not appear to have made similar sums available for migrants from any other Member State or to help local unemployed people find work.

Is this not discrimination and therefore outlawed under the Treaty of Lisbon?
