Unfortunately, I cannot say any more for the moment about the state of progress. I am currently organising consultations with professionals, which will come to an end this year. I shall then consult the politicians, and at the end of this series of consultations I shall make specific proposals. I refuse to put the cart before the horse by making proposals first and only then taking advice. No. First of all, I want to take advice, listen, and then make proposals. I can tell you my own personal opinion: I have made it quite clear that I do not think a total ban on certain types of advertising would be effective unless the experience of other countries, in particular, shows that such a ban is indispensable for the achievement of an objective of legitimate general interest. I asked the Swedish Presidency very clearly not to attempt to adopt this approach, as I knew that, at this stage, I would have to say no. I have said no, I am taking advice, listening. I know that the Swedish government, which, for its own reasons, has banned advertising on its territory, is moving in that direction. I also know that the majority of Member States are not moving in that direction."@en1
