"Huge numbers of constituents have been in touch with me regarding today’s vote. Given the volume of emails I have received, it has unfortunately not been possible to respond individually to everyone. Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to clarify my position and reassure those who contacted me that their concerns have been taken into account.
I am extremely pleased to see the European Parliament give its clear backing to the TTIP negotiations.
An ambitious transatlantic trade agreement would provide a huge boost to our economy and deliver real benefits for businesses of all sizes, making it easier for them to export and giving them access to a marketplace of 300 million US consumers.
TTIP, with adequate safeguards for public services, will not just be good news for businesses, it will also deliver greater choice of products and savings for consumers, without lowering standards.
Investor protection is a necessary component of all trade deals, and I welcome the agreement reached that TTIP should be accompanied by a suitably reformed and highly transparent investor protection mechanism.
I hope that with Parliament’s support for TTIP now officially on record, a swift and successful conclusion of the negotiations can be reached."@en1
