Three years ago, the European Parliament adopted a resolution aiming to improve the European business sector’s access to foreign markets. We are now being called on to adopt a Free Trade Agreement that, in practice, makes it possible for the European Union’s companies to access the South Korean market – which, as we know, is important for Europe – by increasing exports and so creating jobs. As the first in a series of trade agreements to be established following the Treaty of Lisbon and the first use of codecision powers, this represents significant innovation as regards bilateral respect for International Labour Organisation (ILO) standards, compliance with legislation on public procurement, the transparency of state aid and the implementation of sustainable development. I welcome the adoption of this report, which represents a set of new opportunities for the European Union – previously closed off due to the tariffs being applied and which defends business interests with the added value of the ‘safeguard clause’; in other words, the re--imposition of customs duties."@en1
