Amendment 97 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 9 – indent 1 a (new)
- Calls on the Commission to define its positions in international financial and macroeconomic fora in line with the following principles: 1. The need to step up fiscal collaboration among countries across the world in order to reduce and ultimately eliminate tax havens, and to coordinate and harmonise national tax policies so as to avoid tax evasion based on opaque systems and unfair tax competition; 2. The need to support the spread of the culture of corporate social responsibility (CSR), since sustainable undertakings are and will be the basis for cohesive and sustainable human development. To this end, the EU must support the development of the UN guiding principles and the spread of the culture of business responsibility for human rights. 3. The need to uphold the European social model and its expansion in the context of globalisation of the economy and production, not only as an ideal with regard to decent employment and social protection but as the sole means of preventing social dumping, which ultimately leads to the deterioration and devaluation of that model.
