"I shall just repeat what I have already mentioned, that the Commission is currently examining the way that Regulation (EC) No 2790/1999 – which, as the honourable Member rightly said, is 10 years old – has been applied so far. We have to decide whether there is a need for further changes, including in the area of selective distribution.
It is important for the Commission, in this review, to strike the right balance to allow European consumers to take full advantage of the Internet to overcome geographical barriers, while at the same time allowing manufacturers to organise their distribution systems as they feel appropriate. In that context, the benefits that selective distribution brings to consumers, both in the on-line and off-line worlds, will certainly be revisited.
Mr Rübig asked what we can do in the present situation. We have to take into account, after this review, what the need is, and then we will come back with our final conclusions and we will pick up the point that the honourable Member touched upon."@en1
