"Mr President, we are truly delighted that this important debate is taking place so promptly after a question on patients’ rights was tabled by several ALDE Group members, which was in fact initiated by Dr Parvanova, a Bulgarian Observer colleague. We are also very grateful to Commissioner Kyprianou for the genuine interest and concern he has shown in speedily and efficiently dealing with the question on patients’ rights in the EU.
With regard to the Commission statement which is the subject of this debate, we take the view that it should cover areas like recognition that comparable standards of healthcare and a common set of patients’ rights should be discussed at EU level in order to have the added value of the internal market on healthcare issues, and in order to empower patients to fully recognise and exercise their rights.
Furthermore, we have always believed that in the discussions on patients’ rights in Europe, the Commission should take into account previous work done by civil society organisations in respect of drafting the European Charter of Patients’ Rights."@en1
