lpv:spoken text	"I thank the Commissioner for his response. I have to declare a personal interest in this matter. As someone who has a bank account in Brussels, occasionally comes to Strasbourg, has a bank account in Ireland and travels to other countries, I have noticed in my transaction charges over the recent past costs per transaction, particularly here in France, as against in Belgium. I am delighted by the fact that Regulation 2560 of 2001 has now come into operation as of 1 July. I also welcome the fact that we have a press release from the Commission on this. However, if we discover that banks have failed to comply with their obligations regarding similar or equal charges both domestic and abroad, and if we find that there are usury rates being added by banks with regard to operation of a card from one Member State to another, what action can be taken by an individual consumer, without going through the whole rigmarole of making an official complaint to the Commission? What action has the Commission taken to ensure that the public is fully informed with regard to these rules and their rights? Maybe an onus on banks to put up notices in all their branches displaying these rules and regulations could be one way."@en1
