"Mr President, the title of this question speaks about improving the environment for SMEs. Could I suggest that, if the EU really wants to help, rather than indulging in predictable rhetoric, there is something meaningful and immediate which could be done. Why could we not initiate a ‘regulation holiday’ for SMEs during the current global crisis? Compliance with tier upon tier of EU regulation is so demanding, so onerous and so expensive that it is stultifying EU output and prosperity. The cost is unbearable. It amounts to billions per annum. At a stroke, through a ‘regulation holiday’, we could save businesses billions per year and allow them to grow."@en1
