"The objective of Directive 2008/52/EC is to promote the amicable settlement of disputes by encouraging the use of mediation and by ensuring a balanced relationship between mediation and judicial proceedings. Besides predictability, the directive aims to establish a framework that preserves the main advantage of mediation: flexibility. These requirements should guide Member States when drawing up national laws implementing the directive. The most important finding of the assessment carried out is that most Member States are not only compliant but are, in fact, ahead of the directive’s requirements. Nevertheless, this report stresses the need for increased awareness and understanding of mediation, and calls for further action relating to education, to growing awareness of mediation, to enhancing mediation uptake by businesses, and to the requirements for access to the profession of mediator. The report urges national authorities to develop programmes in order to promote adequate knowledge of alternative dispute resolution, which should address the main advantages of mediation – cost, success rate and time efficiency – and should concern lawyers, notaries and businesses, in particular, small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as academics. I voted for this report for the above reasons."@en1
