More Europe regards the progress of the European Council as an important step but insufficient

16 décembre 2011 | Par More Europe

After the European leaders Summit celebrated in Brussels last week, the Platform MORE EUROPE considers the decisions taken by the European Council as an important, but insufficient, step.

The measures adopted by the Council, and refused by the United Kingdom, have been :  To recognize the worsening of the economical and financial situation  To recognize the need to adopt measures to drive growth and employment ;  To propose monitoring tools to amend macroeconomic imbalance.  To oversee social and employment Member States policies, specially those having a bigger impact on macroeconomics and social growth.  The need to mobilize active population to increase growth and to adopt specific measures for the weakest groups  To adapt education to labor market needs.  To coordinate Tax policies to support and help to coordinate economical policies and to contribute to budget balance and growth.

Although we consider those measures are insufficient, MORE EUROPE supports them. For that reason we believe that the following actions to be taken are :  To allow the European Central Bank to issue Eurobonds ;  To approve institutional and regulatory changes to strength the political union and to reduce differences among Member States ;  To reinforce the EU budget thanks to own resources such as financial transactions taxes and CO2 emission taxes ;  To reinforce the role of antifraud institutions against tax evasion and tax havens.

MORE EUROPE considers that institutional and regulatory changes are requested to support a strong supranational power. We strongly believe that the EU economical governance reinforcement needs a Fiscal Union and a budgetary tool to be successful.
