"Mr President, may I take the liberty of thanking Mr Ortuondo Larrea for his report. I do this as one of the instigators, two years since, of the rejection of the draft directive on access to port services.
I am in favour of treating ports as an element of the infrastructure, and thus also of the public sector taking strategic responsibility for port development. Ports do not have to be state-run, but the public sector must take responsibility for them. It also suits me that we are talking about public aid. That may perhaps be something we need, and the rules of the game will undoubtedly serve us well.
I would like to emphasise the importance of stabilising the conditions for port employees. This is a group of people who, along with the port as an infrastructure element, create a source of economic potential. The final element to which I wished to draw attention is the need to modernise access to ports – in other words, roads, railway lines and inland waterways – to establish a multi-modal transport hub."@en1
