EU plans to adopt green card scheme for expats

QUOTE (Expatica)
The European Commission wants to introduce a 'green card' that would be valid across the entire European Union.

The work permits are aimed at highly educated expats, a spokesman for EU Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini said on Tuesday.

The EC decided more than a year ago to draw up a green card system. Concrete proposals will be unveiled in September.
