lpv:translated text	"I fully support the report on European standardisation, aimed at revising and replacing the existing legal framework on European standardisation by simplifying rules and accelerating the standard-setting processes, especially in the fast-developing ICT sector. However, alongside the process, we need to ensure cooperation and balanced representation of all stakeholders in the system at national and EU levels, so as to ensure transparency, clear division of responsibilities and consistency of the standards across Europe. Improving transparency, consultation and involvement of the relevant parties in the process are crucial elements needed to guarantee that standards are useful and truly market-driven tools preserving fundamental and social principles. The focal point of the standardisation process should be the involvement of SMEs in the standardisation activities, particularly in the work of national standardisation bodies. National standardisation organisations should promote and facilitate the access of SMEs to standards and their development by applying special rates and providing bundles of standards at a reduced price. Member States should also consider exempting micro-businesses from payment for these services."@en1
