"On the one hand, this report advocates creating a competitive digital single market that is meant to be without barriers or distortions of competition; on the other, it states that its goal is increased implementation of eGovernment, thereby ‘reducing the costs of public services’ in exchange for more ‘efficiency and competitiveness’, specifically for the digital single market, but also ‘saving’ public resources. The issue of the single market, digital or otherwise, retains the same principles, objectives and interests as the single market responsible for dismantling national production, for destroying jobs, for increasing external dependence, and for the trade imbalance that causes continuous deficits and weakens the economies of more vulnerable countries. However, we acknowledge that new technological advances like the Internet are an important instrument and an asset for society. We also recognise the convenience and efficiency that they can introduce when applied to public administration services as a complement to the existence of the normal departments and their staff. Nonetheless, we cannot agree with the use of this tool as a pretext for continuing to pave the way for cutting back on public services, thereby enabling and encouraging privatisation, and brutal attacks on the jobs, rights and wages of government employees."@en1
