This is yet another part of this energy package. It concerns the establishment of the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators, which fits within a global strategy, defined by the European Commission and by the Council, to liberalise and regulate the energy sector, which they have termed the ‘Energy Package’.
The strategy is always the same. First they privatise the public sector. Then problems arise and they create regulators, new bureaucracies and greater control for the major powers over what happens in each Member State.
According to the rapporteur (from the PPE-DE Group), we must go beyond the Commission’s proposals and give this Agency more independence and more decision-making powers. The imposition of standards, codes, market rules and even decisions by higher authorities, serving the interests of economic groups, is a recurrent argument. The Agency will be a supranational institution with powers in a strategic area – namely energy – which has an effect across all sectors of society.
The consequences of interference in the political strategy and economy of each Member State could be serious. In this context we reject the report."@en1
