"I voted in favour of this report because I agree with the objectives set by the European Commission to modernise the public procurement system in the European Union. The directive currently in force was adopted relatively recently in 2004, and although, at that time, many innovations were introduced into the public procurement system previously in force, the situation has changed again in the last six years.
One of the main issues surrounding the public procurement system was always the simplification of procedures so that they could be used effectively even by buyers with limited resources, and also the regulation of the issue of service concessions at EU level, the mandatory inclusion of social criteria in procurement procedures, and transaction thresholds above which the EU directive would automatically be triggered. With this document, the European Parliament has once again reaffirmed its position that the current regulation of services concessions at EU level is not necessary, while the inclusion of social criteria in procurement procedures should always remain voluntary, but it recognises that the European Commission should draw up improved procurement manuals on this issue."@en1
