Paragraph 79 b (new)

Motion for a resolution	Amendment
	79 b. Parliament shall take the necessary measures to ensure that trainees who find themselves in a situation which they have reasonable grounds to believe presents a serious and imminent danger or an infringement of their morality, rights or dignity may immediately withdraw from that situation until it has ended or they have been duly informed that the reasonably assumed danger or violation no longer exists. The exercise of this right shall have no consequences for the continuation of the traineeship, unless the trainee decides otherwise, or for the trainee's assessment or remuneration.
