Text tabled : A7-0369/2011

  Kay Swinburne (ECR). – Madam President, together with my ECR colleagues, I voted in favour of this consumer policy report as it clearly sets out the need for a proactive policy which places consumers at the heart of the single market. Encouragingly, the report draws from statistics from the Consumer Scoreboard and has taken the recently published top 20 main citizens’ and business concerns regarding the single market into full account. The report calls for the Commission to integrate initiatives across all its responsible services, which will ensure proper implementation and enforcement of existing legislation. We now, on behalf of our citizens, need to deliver these policies.
