"I voted in favour of this report on a more efficient and fairer retail market.
The document expresses and advocates many of the principles that the
has always put at the heart of its programme, particularly as regards defending small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and small retailers.
Among the various aspects highlighted by the report, I particularly welcome the points that express the concern felt by SMEs at the growth of shopping centres and the decline of local shops and markets. Similarly, I particularly welcome the report’s aim of stressing that SMEs constitute the backbone of the European economy and have a unique role to play in creating jobs. I also welcome the rapporteur’s aim of denouncing unfair practices that affect small retailers and, in many cases, consumers themselves. For the reasons given above, my vote was decidedly in favour."@en1
