"The European Union is undergoing rapid and dramatic changes. Although with varying degrees of probability, some challenges and issues can be predicted: recovery from the crisis, the consequences of global competition, and the difficulties of managing sustainable development. There is no doubt, however, that the EU will also need to face yet unforeseen difficulties. At the same time, it is also apparent that ever since the beginning of its existence, competition policy has always been able to cope with major changes in its environment, backed by the stable framework of the Treaty.
Due to its flexibility and adaptability, EU competition policy remains one of the greatest assets of the European Union. This is one of the reasons why I find it important that with the adoption of the guidance on the Commission’s enforcement priorities in applying Article 82 of the EC Treaty to abusive exclusionary conduct by dominant undertakings, we managed to incorporate an economic approach focusing on consumer well-being into the implementation framework of anti-trust measures.
I support the measures drafted by the rapporteur, Mr Andreas Schwab, because the efficient use of EU competition policy instruments both within and outside the borders of the EU is in the interest of all European citizens and is therefore a duty of the European Parliament."@en1
