Welcomes the acknowledgment of the Commission in its Clean Industrial Deal communication that ‘the use of social conditionalities in public funding ensures that workers benefit from the support provided to industry, including to promote collective bargaining’1a; welcomes the Commission’s intention to support labour and social standards in order to ensure that the transition is fair and equitable for all in the context of the revision of the legislative framework on public procurement; highlights the fact that the Letta report called for public procurement legislation to ensure that contracts foster the creation of high-quality jobs, characterised by fair wages and conditions underpinned by collective agreements;

Paragraph 82 a (new)
Motion for a resolution
Amendment
82a. Underlines that the inclusion of social and health services under the ‘light regime’ in the application of the EU’s public procurement rules has had a detrimental effect in certain Member States on the quality and continuity of care and that there have been virtually no cross-border bids, since the provision of these services is very specific to the organisation of the welfare state; calls, therefore, on the Commission to assess the impact of the inclusion of social and health services and to consider revising this inclusion within the scope of Directive 2014/24/EU;
