". − In general we agree with the proposals of the rapporteur which aim to improve the document of the European Commission on the fight against tax evasion connected with intra-Community transactions. It is true that VAT evasion affects not only the financing of Member States’ budgets but also the overall balance of the European Union’s own resources in so far as reductions in VAT own resources have to be compensated for by an increase in the gross national income of own resources. Also, it does not seem negative to me that there should be an evaluation report on the impact of the present directive, in particular on the administrative costs of the new formal obligations for individuals affected, and of the effectiveness of those formal obligations in combating tax evasion. However, we have serious reservations about relative justice in the rules of the existing system and their application. That is why we abstained from the vote on this report."@en1
