Sitting
The Assembly,
Considering that the abolition of obstacles to trade, envisaged
in the proposal for a Free Trade Area, is closely bound up with
the removal of distortions arising from disparities in social legislation
and with the abolition of obstacles to the free movement of individuals
;
Instructs the Social Committee :
- to consider the social implications involved in the proposal
for a Free Trade Area ; and
- to put forward constructive solutions so that the establishment
of such an area may, to the utmost possible extent, lead to a harmonization
of social charges, facilitate the liberation of services, improve stability
of employment and contribute to a rise in the standard of living
of working folk.
