"Mr President, first of all, I should like to make a comment on the process. I have to say that I am extremely annoyed about finding out that, unknown to Parliament, negotiations are being held with certain Member States or that, in the case of software, Parliament’s view is simply being ignored.
My second comment concerns the content. There has been much talk about the Lisbon strategy and the need for innovation and promoting the European services market. I am one of the advocates of the services directive, and it goes without saying that we need clarification and improvement on a number of points, provided this is based on facts and not based on media reports which are full of false information, or
with Chirac, Schröder and others. As for the software, the quality of legislation must not be made subordinate to the power struggle between the institutions. The innovation that we need must not be stifled by misguided legislation.
In short, Mr McCreevy, I would argue in favour of paying more than lip service to the Lisbon strategy and also of respect for the democratic process and for the elected representatives of Europe’s people."@en1
