To accept the amendment would be to tie down the Government's future policy in the area of labour market access following accession. While full labour market access is being granted to the eight accession states in question in this instance, this may not always be the case for future EU enlargements depending on a number of unforeseeable facts which include, but are not limited to, the prevailing labour market situation at the time of accession. If the amendment were accepted, we would be obliged to grant full labour market access after accession in future instances regardless of the factors that may need to be taken into account. Accordingly, I ask the Senator to withdraw it.
