"Mr President, I voted for the Beyson report, but this is a classic example of what I was referring to in the vote on abolishing Friday sittings. In this document, the European Parliament defines the categories of goods to be taken into consideration in the drawing up of statistics on products which cross the borders between one State and another, although it is not clear what purpose this will serve. Is it so that we know how many sweets have passed from Italy into France or how many tractors have passed from Germany into Sweden, for example? This seems to me to be excessive bureaucracy as well as an unnecessary amount of work for Parliament. Since we are recording the amount of goods which cross the borders, why do we not also record how many people cross from one country to another within the European Union? But to what end? We must make life simpler for our citizens and simplify our legislation as well!"@en1
