"Four years after the adoption of the Services Directive, the European Parliament gave its verdict this week on the implementation of the directive in the Member States. A shortage of information, standstills in terms of cross-border services, unnecessary administrative constraints, and so on, are the criticisms voiced by the European Parliament in the report that we have adopted and of which I have voted in favour. Indeed, Member States need to make progress in implementing this directive in order to improve and facilitate the provision of cross-border services. Aside from that, I would like to emphasise the difficult issue of the directive’s scope, which excludes a number of areas, such as non-economic services of general interest and some services (social services, childcare, assistance to people, and so on) carried out by providers mandated by the State. Two concepts, ‘non-economic service of general interest’ and ‘mandating’, are not clearly defined and/or their interpretation differs from one Member State to another. This has resulted in a lack of legal clarity, which I deeply regret."@en1
