§ 3 (draft legislative resolution)
First part
‘Welcomes the Commission’s proposal for updated employment guidelines for the Member States, in particular its strong focus on the post-COVID-19 environment, on ensuring that the green and digital transitions are socially fair and economically sustainable, and on recent policy initiatives in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine;’
Second part
‘with a view to strengthening democratic decision-making, reiterates its call to be involved in setting the Integrated Guidelines at Union level on an equal footing with Council, in line with its legislative resolution of 10 July 2020 on the proposal for a Council decision on guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States;’
amendment 14
First part
‘Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the European Council, in its conclusions of 24 February 2022, condemned Russia’s actions, which seek to undermine European and global security and stability, and expressed solidarity to the Ukrainian people, underlining the violation of international law and the principles of the UN Charter. In the current context, temporary protection, as granted by the Council Decision of 4 March 202230 activating the Temporary Protection Directive , is necessary in light of the scale of the influx of refugees and displaced persons. This allows Ukrainian refugees to enjoy harmonised rights across the Union that offer an adequate level of protection, including residency rights, access and integration to the labour market, access to education and training, access to housing, as well as to social security systems, medical care, social welfare, or other assistance, and means of subsistence. Particular attention should be paid to persons with disabilities in this context. By participating in Europe’s labour markets, Ukrainian refugees can contribute to strengthening the EU’s economy and help support their country and people at home. As the majority of Ukrainian refugees are women and children, Member States should ensure sufficient support for housing and childcare provisions to facilitate their inclusion. Member States should also ensure that their implementation of the European Child Guarantee ensures access to free services of high quality for children fleeing Ukraine on an equal footing with their peers in the host country. In the future, the acquired experience and skills can contribute to rebuilding Ukraine. For unaccompanied children and teenagers, temporary protection confers the right to legal guardianship and access to childhood education and care. Member States should involve social partners in the design, implementation and evaluation of policy measures aimed at addressing the employment and skills challenges stemming from the Russian invasion of Ukraine as well as the recognition of qualifications. Social partners play a key role in mitigating the impact of the war in terms of preserving employment and production.’
Second part

amendment 42
First part
‘In line with the activation of the Temporary Protection Directive, Member States should offer an adequate level of protection to refugees from Ukraine, including Roma and third-country nationals legally residing in Ukraine and fleeing to Europe as a consequence of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Residency rights, access and integration to the labour market, access to education, language support, training and housing, as well as access to social security systems, medical and psychosocial care, social welfare or other assistance, and means of subsistence should be provided in this regard. Children should be ensured access to free quality childhood education and care and essential services on equal basis with their peers in the host Member State in line with the European Child Guarantee. For unaccompanied children and teenagers, Member States should implement the right to legal guardianship.
Second part

amendment 12
First part
‘Family-friendly policies and social investments in children, protecting them from poverty and helping all children to access their rights, such as the availability of good quality childcare and early childhood education and training, are essential for the children’s future, the sustainable development of society and a positive demographic development ensuring them a healthy environment and a safe climate. Member States should eradicate child poverty and focus their efforts on the effective implementation of Council Recommendation (EU) 2021/1004 of 14 June 2021 establishing a European Child Guarantee1a and the national action plans adopted pursuant thereto, to ensure access to free quality services for all children in need, thereby ensuring children’s equal and effective access to free healthcare, free education, free childcare, adequate housing and healthy nutrition. To that end, the funding of the European Child Guarantee should be urgently increased with a dedicated budget of at least EUR 20 billion as repeatedly requested by the European Parliament. The European Child Guarantee should be mainstreamed across all policy sectors without delay and funding for children’s rights should be enhanced by making full use of existing Union policies and funds. Member States should further boost investment in sustainable, quality jobs and adopt a comprehensive approach for supporting parents of children in need.’
Second part
‘As a follow-up to the Commission proposal on a Council Recommendation on adequate minimum income ensuring active inclusion, a proposal for a directive on minimum income schemes could contribute to the goal of reducing poverty by at least half in all Member States by 2030.’ without the words: ‘As a follow-up to’ and ‘a proposal for a directive on minimum income schemes’
