lpv:spoken text	". I welcome the move to shake up Europe's energy markets: this will make markets more open and accessible to all. If the final directive contains many of the useful amendments proposed by the Industry Committee, European energy consumers will operate in a considerably more favourable climate than they do at present. Bills will contain more basic information and consumers will be better informed of exactly what they are paying for. Even more significant for European consumers will be the proposed non-discriminatory access to networks for different competitors. Basic economics tells us that more competition for networks should result in an eventual decrease in prices: good news for some consumers who, in the present system, end up paying over the odds. This is equally goods news for small energy companies who are sometimes deterred from further expansion owing to high market entry costs. Gas and electricity are basic necessities, not luxury goods, and this directive will be a triumph for most European consumers and some producers of energy."@en1
