While the Delors Commission took us from the Single European Act to the Union Treaty and an extensive enlargement of the European Community, I hope that the Prodi Commission will be the Commission of a social Europe, the Commission which ensures that economic development does not go hand in hand with social discrimination, but rather with social progress.
Hvis Delors-Kommissionen førte os fra Fællesakten til unionstraktaten og til en stor udvidelse af Det Europæiske Fællesskab, håber jeg, at Prodi-Kommissionen bliver det sociale Europas Kommission. Den Kommission, der garanterer, at den økonomiske udvikling ikke ledsages af social diskrimination, men af social fremgang.
