lpv:translated text	". The adoption of the Services Directive constitutes a significant step forward for the European Union. Despite everything, it was possible to retain the bulk of the initial draft, and the text adopted will promote the success of the Lisbon Strategy, as shown by the most recent studies by the European Commission. This directive will promote activity in the services sector, which is an extremely important source of jobs. The directive will be a crucial asset, particularly for the Belgian economy, which is very much geared towards services. The amendments tabled by the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection made it possible to respond to the public’s main concerns by specifying the scope of the directive and to put an end to a long-running disinformation campaign. The first proposal for a compromise presented by the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats and the Socialist Group in the European Parliament made the proposal for a directive completely meaningless. Fortunately, the final compromise – even if it has not been received enthusiastically – constitutes a first step, which is better than nothing at all, and tackles the main concerns of those in favour of the directive. It now falls to the Council to confirm and improve the final compromise reached by Parliament."@en1
