lpv:translated text	"Mr President, as well as congratulating the rapporteur on his excellent work now and, particularly, at first reading, we must congratulate the European institutions in general, who have succeeded in doing a good job on this issue. As we all remember, we started off from positions very far apart, opposing positions in some cases, and we – Parliament, Council and Commission – succeeded in reaching a compromise which we feel will be genuinely capable of catering for even the most radical demands, which some of the Members have upheld this evening, while satisfying a further, absolutely imperative demand which we endorse and support, namely the need to liberalise the public services in the interests of the citizens and consumers, and this is not a whim or part of a general liberalisation trend. The purpose of liberalisation is to improve the quality of the services provided to the consumer, the user. Clearly, there are some services which require particular attention and this is one of them. We have been very careful with this sector: we have introduced more stages, more steps into the process and have achieved a genuinely satisfactory result. We are convinced, it is our hope, that this text – which we hope will not need any form of conciliation – will become a clear, unambiguous legislative point of reference. There are no grey areas and, even if the letter were to prove at all ambiguous, the substance is clear, Commissioner, and we call upon and expect the Commission to abide by the text in its work. We likewise call upon the other Directorates-General and your other colleagues to follow the line taken by the text, particularly the members of the Directorate-General for Competition, who will deal with disputes that are still pending and some of the problems left over from the past in the light of this development, in the light of what we decide today. Henceforth, the path we must take is clear: we expect you all to follow it with due care and commitment."@en1
