lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, if I wanted to make a little joke, I would say that the debate on this important dossier has been held over two days, since it is now 12 February. That said, Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the public data concern a particularly sensitive area since they concern public information, managed either directly or indirectly by the public authorities. Community legislation on transparency and accessibility of public information already provides a highly comprehensive framework, but in some sectors, a few clarifications should be made in order to prevent any distortion of competition caused by a possible legislative void. I would congratulate the European Commission on this proposal concerning the reuse and handling of public sector documents. I nevertheless lament the lack of precision in certain points in the text. I am thinking, for example, of the documents referred to which, in my opinion, are not the subject of a clear, specific definition. As I proposed to the competent committee for content, the concept of a public document needs to be further delineated. I am not referring to harmonisation, but simply to an appropriate definition to allow all citizens to know exactly which public documents are considered to fall within the scope of the directive. It would also have been desirable to introduce a reference to periods of accessibility of public documents. On the other hand, I am pleased that the proposals on the unilateral order on information production and the proposals on the conditions governing the implementation of this order have been adopted, in particular the reasonable period of notice. An order that is harshly enforced poses a risk to the operators concerned. I am thinking in particular of the SMEs and SMIs, which would not have the technical or financial means to deal with such situations if they were not given enough notice. That is why I would encourage you, ladies and gentlemen, to vote for Mr Van Velzen’s report. The rapporteur has successfully supplemented the Commission’s basic proposal with a comprehensive report, which has been intelligently negotiated between the various political groups to which we belong."@en1
