"Mr President, thank you to Mr Bendtsen for mentioning the construction industry in his opening remarks. I would just like to bring to his attention that my report on construction products will be voted upon in January and we did discuss energy efficiency in that report, too.
However, two quick points. Mr Swoboda mentioned the importance of local authorities. I just wanted to bring to the House’s attention the sensitivity at the moment, certainly in the UK, of budgetary cuts that are affecting local authorities. I think we need to bring that into the debate and the discussions which will come about.
I also want to ask a question to the Commission. In the report we talk about the importance of smart meters and it gives a date of the end of 2011 for the minimum common functionalities. Will we be able to achieve this, Commissioner? I am sorry we do not have anybody from the Presidency this evening, but I think that is important. I would also add to previous speakers in raising the issue about energy poverty, which I think all in this House would agree is vitally important to emphasise."@en1
