"A Uachtaráin, aontaím leis na moltaí seo agus tá siad an-tábhachtach do shaoránaigh trasna na hEorpa ar fad.
I think that, particularly with the development of the Internet, there are wonderful opportunities for e-commerce etc., and that is something we would encourage, but there is also a downside to everything. Certainly in my work in Parliament over the last number of years, I have come across a number of directory scams in particular, and I helped one individual who had suffered hugely as a result of this. Thankfully, the matter has now been resolved with cooperation from the Commission and others, but it points to the need to have unitary implementation of the Directive across the European Union. That is the first point.
The second is the need for some kind of method whereby consumers become aware of their rights and the help that is available, because many times they are not aware of that. If we work on that particular aspect we can encourage e-commerce for the benefit of SMEs and for the benefit of consumers."@en1
