OK, so they don't want to import European workers but they are all more than willing to import workers from the Middle East and Africa?Dutch MPs passed the measure, which is the brainchild of Social Affairs Minister Henk Kamp, despite EU official's warnings that it may hinder freedom of movement - one of the EU's fundamental freedoms.
EU Commissioner for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion, Laszlo Andor, has already stated that restricting the free movement of Bulgarians and Romanians harms the good functioning of the bloc's common market.
The Netherlands is one of ten EU member states that have maintained employment restrictions for citizens of the two countries, which both joined the EU in 2007. The others are Belgium, Germany, Ireland, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Austria, the UK and Malta.
As of January 1st, 2014, Bulgarians and Romanians will be free to work in all of the bloc's 27 member states.
