"Madam President, as chairman of the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection, which was responsible for this very important report, I want to thank Pablo Arias very much indeed for the work he has done. I just want to talk with colleagues here today about the engagement that he and the committee have shown towards this topic and to say how we want to move it forward. This is not just a response to the Commission’s very good paper from DG Internal Market about competence and trust in the internal market. The Committee agreed two years ago to set up a series of monthly working groups, led by Pablo Arias, to address all the issues around moving the single market forward. They have been held in public, we have taken evidence and we have had a lot of engagement from the Commission. That has fed into this report. We have now given Pablo Arias a mandate to continue this work, because I think the biggest single lesson from this report – as is indicated by the richness of all the contributions we have had from many colleagues here today – is that this is a huge agenda. But it is not actually as joined-up as it ought to be at Commission level. We think that we need to move this forward with the sort of structured plan that we have with the Single Market Act: a clear set of timetabled actions to move the digital single market forward. I think that will be very much in our thinking: the third Single Market Act – the Digital Single Market Act – and Pablo Arias and his team are going to work on that. I hope that Commissioner Borg, whom I warmly welcome at his first appearance here, will also be a firm participant in that initiative."@en1
