"Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, it is indeed vital to know whether the directive on misleading and comparative advertising has been properly transposed and applied in the Member States. However, we must also quickly and fully address other fundamental aspects of this problem, which can also be applied to other forms of cross-border scams.
Firstly, the Commission, Member States and their organisations must provide consumers with information upstream. It is unacceptable that more and more citizens are being scammed.
Secondly, victims should have access to class actions in order to assert their rights. We have been waiting for these actions for over 20 years.
Thirdly, the current discussion on the reform of alternative dispute resolutions could also include provisions to deal with these scams.
Commissioner, we expect you to take swift and concrete measures in this regard."@en1
