lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen We have voted against Mr Hudghton’s report on the recasting of the multiple VAT directives because it is in fact only a recast, without fundamental changes, of texts whose standardising principles and principles in contempt of the Member States’ fiscal autonomy we rejected at the time. Within this text, we see no freedom for States to freely set the taxation of purely localised activities, such as catering, which have no bearing on European competition. We see no permanency for applying reduced VAT rates to labour. On the other hand, we note that States will still have to beg Brussels in order to change their VAT rates. We note that they are still not free to choose the sector or the products subject to a given tax. We note above all that the announcement made, three weeks from the French referendum, to lower VAT in the catering sector is a final, pathetic attempt to buy the French vote. Nothing has been done, nothing has been decided. Enough of these lies and false promises."@en1
