lpv:translated text	". The proposal tabled by the European Commission on the rights of persons with reduced mobility when travelling by air was timely, and I, as a shadow speaker for the Liberal and Democratic Alliance for the Europe Group of the European Parliament, agree in principal that the rights of persons with reduced mobility when travelling by air should be regulated on the European Union level. It is no secret that disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility are discriminated against in respect of other passengers, not only whilst booking flight tickets but also when boarding planes. Therefore, I believe that implementation of the new directive will prevent such discrimination. I also believe that by approving this report we will ensure equal travel possibilities for disabled persons and those with reduced mobility and will regulate the provision of such services at the European Union level. Persons with reduced mobility will no longer be groundlessly refused to book a flight or board a plane. Furthermore, specially trained personnel will provide such persons with assistance tailored to their personal needs, and, most importantly, such services will be provided free of charge; the responsibility will lie with a single institution which will ensure that such services are provided continuously and to a high standard. I congratulate Mr Evans and I thank him for the possibility of constructive cooperation. I believe that the compromises achieved will contribute to passing the legal acts at first reading."@en1
