"Mr President, I also want to thank the rapporteur, particularly for her work to try and keep us on board. This report shows there is a clear will to improve the single market and make it work better for everyone, both consumers and businesses, and I welcome the emphasis on cutting red tape, on reducing burdens for businesses. This should be at the heart of future efforts in this area. The report’s emphasis on opening up the service sector and addressing weaknesses in mutual recognition is also welcome, and the report is also right to focus on supporting SMEs and start-ups and cutting burdens for them.
I welcome the support for a once—only principle for administrative requirements and I also agree with the importance of the sharing economy. So we will support the report and we thank the rapporteur for her efforts, but we do have some concerns in areas which we cannot support. For example, non-agricultural GIs. We do not support this. It is not workable and I personally do not agree with the premise for an extension to the system. On the ‘Made in’ label, I have not seen any evidence that a mandatory scheme is more beneficial than a voluntary scheme, nor would it contribute to product traceability. A product made in China with a slight finishing in Europe should not be packaged as European. That would be cheating consumers. So we cannot support those elements but we will support the overall package."@en1
