". It is clear that the progress that has been made these last few years on defining and guaranteeing a universal service in the postal sector, as in other areas, such as energy, constitutes a significant advance which we found it very hard to conceive of or even hope for at the beginning of the nineties. I would therefore pass a favourable judgment on this progress: we now have not inconsiderable guarantees on the accessibility and quality of the universal service, in terms of a minimum set of products being supplied as part of the universal service and in terms of the universal service being adaptable to new technology. Nevertheless, there remain some doubts, questions and concerns about striking the right balance between the public service and the market, about maintaining the postal network in our towns and villages and about the tariffs applied. That is why I signed the amendments seeking to have the Commission submit regular reports to the European Parliament on the development of the internal market. That is also why I signed the amendment with the Greens setting the weight limit, as at first reading, at 150 grams (with pricing conditions). I regret the fact that this amendment, which 'guaranteed the guarantees' given by others, was rejected. We will now need to be extra vigilant when the texts are implemented."@en1
