Paragraph 1 a (new)
1a. Takes the view that the loss of jobs as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns and the economic and financial crisis is being worsened by the austerity policies promoted by the EU’s economic governance and will become even more serious if the TTIP and TiSA free-trade agreements come into force; considers, therefore, that real recovery in employment in the EU requires a change of economic policies and a new model of world trade;
