"Mr President, I, too, am very pleased that there are a number of positive changes have been made in this recast and that a real deal has been reached. Above all, I am pleased with greater transparency in the financial flows for holding companies, while the evolution to a more European-focused regulator through the improved coordination of national regulators is also an important step forwards. The fact remains, however, that the various Member States, in the shape of the Council, will, first and foremost, continue to protect their national monopolies. As long as we are unable to truly talk of a single market, as long as the monopolies continue to be protected, there will never be improved service for businesses, there will never be more reliability for customers that use the railways in Europe and we will never really be able to realise the added economic value of this railway package. This fourth railway package that the Commission has announced will therefore have to encompass these elements; it will have to offer a more open playing field in the transport sphere; it will have to liberalise passenger transport; and it will also have to realise the total separation between infrastructure and operations in railway transport. I hope that the Commission can also demonstrate that ambition."@en1
