29 Barroso II Policy Guidelines the EU Institutions and the Member States have often failed to make clear what European action means concretely for the citizens: how do Europeans benefit from the single market, from market opening and regulation from competition policy or from structural funds? What exactly are the rights of Europeans as students, workers, businesspeople or consumers? In short I want the European policy agenda to be built much more clearly around the rights and the needs of Europeans. 29 of 30
