lpv:translated text	". Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, energy savings help reduce Europe’s dependence on an essential resource, contribute towards sustainable development and, by preventing waste, increase competitiveness. These are hugely important, topical objectives, as the rapporteur and the Commissioner both pointed out. Given that there appears to be convergence on objectives, the biggest problem that we face is how to convert those objectives into practice and how to change wasteful practices and habits. The text that we are about to adopt is an important step in this direction. As draftsman, I wish to thank the rapporteur for the quality of his work and for his cooperation in accepting a large number of amendments, three of which I should like to highlight: Firstly, the liberalisation of the energy markets must be matched by the quality of the regulation. Secondly, the harmonisation of standards must be carried out at international level. Thirdly, fiscal differences are specified that will lead to more efficient practices. Lastly, I feel that to ensure consistency of policy, there should be a way of guaranteeing that the Structural and Cohesion Funds lead to recovery and energy saving, especially in cities, which should go hand in hand with the recovery and streamlining of transport systems. I wish to bring these four suggestions to the fore."@en1
