English-Dutch translations for laggard

• achterblijver
  De Commissie zou deze kunnen produceren om de achterblijvers aan te sporen het goede voorbeeld van die lidstaten te volgen die misschien wat verder zijn. The Commission can produce these in order to urge the laggards to take a good example from those Member States who are perhaps more advanced.
  Op die manier zou de uitbreiding concreter verlopen, zou er meer vaart achter de voorbereidingen worden gezet en zouden achterblijvers zich sneller geroepen voelen hun achterstand in te halen. The enlargement would thus progress in a concrete way thanks to this dynamic, which would intensify the preparations and help the laggards reduce the gap.
