"The report looks at the problems, outlook and developments in the air transport market, which have delicate implications, especially with regard to economic growth and consumer rights. It is appropriate that we should discuss these in depth and intervene with the tools at our disposal, calling on the relevant local bodies to look at the issue themselves. I would like to draw attention to four main issues. The first is territorial cohesion, which involves delicate issues of citizenship rights and problems in the capacity of the local economies in the surrounding areas. Then there are the practices of low-cost airlines, which are only partly linked to the low margins of this sector, and should involve consideration of consumer rights, especially in view of the intervention by the Spanish Government. Then there is the role of regional airports in the local economies, and structural weaknesses that expose them to the pressure of dominant powers. Finally, and above all, there is the need to bring regional airports within the sphere of attention and action of the European legislator, through simplification and alignment of the laws, and incentives to build integrated systems and networks that successfully exploit multimodality. I approve and support the report, which paves the way to a vision more aware of the role that air transport plays in our society."@en1
