Subject: The European Parliament welcomes the Commission communication entitled ‘Strengthening the social dimension of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU)’ and considers it to be a first step towards building a social dimension of the EMU; it urges that social considerations be placed at the core of European integration and mainstreamed into all EU policies and initiatives; it considers therefore that the development of a social Europe, with the target of a ‘social union’, is a consequence of European integration; finally it calls on the Council and the Commission to take concrete action to make the social impact of policies and reforms more transparent, through the ex ante and ex post impact assessment and monitoring of policy reforms.
