"The retail sector represents a reserve of growth for Europe’s internal market and, at the same time, it can provide consumers with greater transparency and facilitate final price comparisons.
In view of this multifaceted, strategic role, I have given my full support to Mrs Corazza Bildt’s report, since we need to take much-needed action to harmonise legislation in this sector as soon as possible. I would point out that this sector provides access to goods and services in difficult areas (rural, mountainous and sparsely populated areas, and so on) where the presence of small retailers and local markets is a service to the community.
While I hope the comprehensive European action plan for retail will soon be drafted, I look forward to the completion of the process currently taking place in the Member States of implementing those directives (on late payments
commerce, services, and so on) that this Parliament has already deemed to be important levers for the European market.
Finally, I believe that by voting in favour I have made an important contribution to the process of simplification and reduction of administrative burdens for European retailers and others, thus removing obstacles and barriers that could slow growth and job creation in the European Union."@en1
