Hajsel: Need for changes in labour and social law stems from CoFoE conclusions

In line with the recommendations of the Conference on the Future of Europe (CoFoE), the European Commission should submit legislative proposals in the areas of labour and social law, the right to an adequate income and adequate housing and chiefly the rights of children and youth, Slovak MEP Robert Hajsel told TASR in an interview. "Potential reinforcing of the EU's military and defence capabilities and streamlining of the common foreign policy are also possible," said Hajsel. "As a social democrat, I have been doing my best in the long term to transform people's desire to strengthen social rights and improve the quality of their life in the adopted legislation as much as possible. The point is that we should enact what people want, for example strengthening of children's rights, adequate salaries or adequate minimum income, into binding documents," the MEP said.
