"Madam President, connected TV is an exciting innovation. The hardware and the hyper-platforms are already common in many homes, but we are standing at the beginning of this revolution when it comes to the development of the software. This report highlights the challenges in areas such as media pluralism, advertising and protection for minors. It also stresses the need to ensure fair competition between European content suppliers which are governed by EU legislation and major international platforms which are not.
We also need to look at the rules governing advertising in the audiovisual media and the protection of minors. They do not currently apply to the Internet. We are therefore calling on the Commission to consider an appropriate European framework ensuring that content quality and integrity are the same, whether it is broadcast or supplied by an alternative media platform.
Finally I would like to highlight the fact that there are still vast areas of the UK and across Europe with poor Internet infrastructures. Unless we can address these challenges, connected TV will be a luxury which can only be enjoyed by citizens living in urban areas with high Internet speeds. But I recommend the report and I will be voting in favour of it."@en1
