"Madam President, the creation of a single market in services has been one of the cornerstones of the European project since its inception. The single market in services was not planned as an end in itself. It is an instrument for improving the everyday life and prosperity of European businesses and EU Member State citizens. The enormous potential it offers must be used as a lever for creating sustainable growth and jobs, for extending the possibilities of consumer choice, and for providing businesses with new opportunities. This applies even more in the current crisis.
The mutual evaluation process has shown, for example, that the Member State in which a service is provided often imposes insurance obligations on cross-border service providers. This is regardless of the fact that a given provider may already be adequately insured in the place of establishment of the activity. This causes considerable problems with cross-border service provision in sectors such as services for businesses or for the construction industry. I would therefore like to ask the Commission to consider whether the sort of barriers that still exist today cannot be eliminated for the future and for the greater prosperity of European companies, and so that Member State citizens can enjoy more efficient service provision."@en1
