"There are times – extremely rare times in this House – when the Members are asked to vote on a text that is genuinely useful for Europeans and when, for once, Europe provides real added value.
Such was the case a few years ago for cross-border credit transfers in the euro zone: European legislation stipulated that the cost of cross-border transfers be the same as that of national transfers. This was merely very logical and very normal, since the single currency had just been brought in.
It is the case today for the regulation on mobile telephone roaming charges. Though imperfect, like all compromises, this text will nevertheless make it possible to monitor more effectively the prohibitive tariffs set by operators on Community international communications. Furthermore, the revision clause, which will be laid down in 18 months’ time, will, we hope, be an opportunity to go further in terms of protecting consumers."@en1
