lpv:spoken text	". The majority of British ports are well run and prosper because private operators have taken over from cash-strapped local authorities and are running the ports as successful businesses. The proposed European Commission directive to increase competition in port services in the EU threatens to reverse this. It would leave British ports vulnerable to takeovers similar to the takeover of various electricity firms by Electricité de France. It would impose unnecessary bureaucracy on an already highly competitive and successful UK ports market. It would threaten the independent, commercially based and subsidy free nature of British ports. I would like to see private operators exempted from the scope of this directive."@en1
