"Mr President, in the Committee on Transport and Tourism we had a very interesting debate with a wide range of views at the time, but we came to some consensus on a number of points.
One was to ensure that the conditions exist to open up the sector to free and fair competition. The other one was, really, to make sure that we are doing what we set out to do in the first place, such as: implementation of the recast of the first railway package; making sure that there is more liberalisation and more competition but at the same time making sure that consumers gain rather than lose out in any changes; making sure that there is a multimodal system for ticket reservation and sales, so that passengers can order and not just be restricted to one mode of transport. Also when it came to the aviation sector and the EU-US air agreements, making sure that they were compatible regulatory approaches, making sure this happened.
Finally, we talked about the EU road haulage market. This could bring real benefits but at the same time we needed to ensure concerns were taken into account when it came to environmental issues and making sure it really did bring benefits to consumers.
Overall we had a good bit of work in the Transport Committee, but we pushed for greater liberalisation and more competition."@en1
