lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council Directive on Consumer Rights. The objective of this directive is to achieve a high level of consumer protection. The European Union’s attempt to combine the harmonisation of the internal market with a high level of consumer protection can best be achieved by trying to raise the current minimum level of harmonisation in the direction of the best national practices existing in several Member States. In future, the European system of liability for lack of conformity should be developed in such a way that it improves consumer protection and confidence in the markets: this is fair to businesses and supports an increase in the useful life of products. Putting this into practice requires the creation of a European model for resolving consumer disputes. Not all the grand ambitions for the Consumer Rights Directive have been achieved, but I believe an important step has been taken that does not compromise the market’s normal workings."@en1
