"Mr President, it is a special pleasure on behalf of the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection, as its chairman, to make some comments on both these resolutions, because we have been involved in both of them, and because the clear context for this is our resolution on the digital single market passed by a very large majority in this House in July, where we put the whole emphasis on the need to give citizens and consumers trust and confidence in the whole of their interactions with the Internet.
A number of people made those points today, not just in the context of network security, which is crucial not just for citizens in terms of developing the market but in delivery of those crucial infrastructure services as well, and we had to get all Member States to raise their game, as my colleague Tunne Kelam – who was a joint signatory to this resolution with me – pointed out so eloquently. But we need to address the question of trust and confidence in buying those digital services, and the issues of net neutrality that so many of you mentioned. We know, Commissioner, that you are working on that and so the point I would make from my committee is that we will do our very best to reinforce our previous work on users’ rights in this area. If I may say, it is really good to have the Lithuanian Presidency here because we need it to move this forward in Council as soon as possible.
I would also like to make an important point of order, Mr President, which is that I am disappointed that my committee – which was responsible for this resolution on cybersecurity, signed by members of my committee – was not allowed the five minutes’ speaking time that my colleague Mr Rohde used so elegantly in presenting the resolution by the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy. I think it is a breach of protocol in this House that my committee has been denied this opportunity, and I hope that you will take this up with the Presidency."@en1
