lpv:spoken text	". I wish to say at the outset that this is really a question on public procurement and not on the Services Directive. The first point to note is that, as regards the participation in procedures for the award of public works contracts, it is not contrary to Community law that technical, architectural or construction companies holding shares in other companies which provide audiovisual services in one Member State, including the Member States of establishment, participate in such procedures in any of the Member States, including the one in which they are established. Under Community public procurement law, there is an exhaustive list of criteria to exclude companies from public procurement contracts. Examples of these are when a company is being wound up, when its managers have been involved in proven misconduct, or when tax or social security obligations have not been fulfilled. Member States may not add criteria to this list. As regards the proposed directive on services, the Commission can confirm that all these services fall within its scope. It is the case that certain Member States impose restrictions on multi-disciplinary activities that may restrict either the freedom of establishment or the cross-border provision of services. In order to deal with these kinds of potential barriers, Article 30 of the proposal stipulates that Member States shall ensure that providers are not made subject to requirements which oblige them to exercise a given activity exclusively, or in a manner which restricts the exercise of different activities either jointly or in partnership. However, exceptions are made for regulated professions and providers of certification, accreditation, technical monitoring, and test or trial services. For activities where multidisciplinary activities are authorised, Member States shall ensure that conflicts of interest and incompatibilities between certain activities are prevented, that independence and impartiality – when required – are secured, and that rules on professional ethics and conduct for different activities are compatible. These requirements will be subject to mutual evaluation by the Member States and the Commission."@en⁴

For det første skal det siges, at det, hvad angår indgåelse af offentlige bygge- og anlægskontrakter, ikke er i modstrid med fællesskabslovgivningen, at tekniske virksomheder, arkitektvirksomheder eller bygge- og anlægsvirksomheder, der har aktier i andre selskaber, som leverer audiovisuelle tjenester i en medlemsstat, herunder etableringsmedlemsstaten, deltager i den type procedurer i en hvilken som helst af medlemsstaterne, herunder den, de er etableret i. I EU's lovgivning om offentlige indkøb er der en udtømmende liste over kriterier for at udelukke virksomheder fra offentlige indkøbsaftaler. Eksempler er, når en virksomhed er under likvidation, når dens ledere har begået en bevisligt konstateret fejl, eller når forpligtelser med hensyn til betaling af skatter og afgifter eller ydelser til sociale sikringsordninger ikke er blevet opfyldt. Medlemsstaterne kan ikke tilføje kriterier til denne liste. Hvad angår direktivforslaget om tjenesteydelser, kan Kommissionen bekræfte, at alle disse tjenesteydelser vil være omfattet af dets anvendelsesområde. Sagen er, at visse medlemsstater lægger begrænsninger på virksomhed på flere områder, der kan begrænse enten etableringsfriheden eller grænseoverskridende levering af tjenesteydelser. Med henblik på at håndtere denne type potentielle barrierer fastslås det i forslagets artikel 30, at medlemsstaterne skal påse, at tjenesteydere ikke underkastes krav, der forpligter dem til udelukkende at udøve én form for virksomhed, eller som indskrænker deres muligheder for at udøve flere former for virksomhed alene eller sammen med andre tjenesteydere. Der gøres imidlertid undtagelser for lovregulerede erhverv og tjenesteydere, der udfører tjenesteydelser inden for certificering, godkendelse, teknisk kontrol og test og prøvninger. For aktiviteter, hvor virksomhed på flere områder er tilladt, skal medlemsstaterne sørge for at forebygge interessekonflikter og uforenelighed mellem visse former for virksomhed, sikre den uafhængighed og uvildighed, der er nødvendig i forbindelse med visse former for virksomhed - når det er påkrævet - og sikre, at de fagetiske regler for de forskellige former for virksomhed er forenelige med hinanden. Disse krav vil blive genstand for gensidig evaluering fra medlemsstaternes og Kommissionens side."@da² ". Ich möchte eingangs feststellen, dass diese Frage eigentlich das öffentliche Auftragswesen und weniger die Dienstleistungsrichtlinie betrifft. Was die Teilnahme an Verfahren zur Vergabe öffentlicher Bauaufträge betrifft, so ist erstens anzumerken, dass Baufirmen, Unternehmen des technischen Bereichs und Architekten, die Aktien an anderen Unternehmen besitzen, welche audiovisuelle Dienste in einem Mitgliedstaat einschließlich des Niederlassungsmitgliedstaats erbringen, an derartigen Verfahren in gleich welchem Mitgliedstaat einschließlich des Mitgliedstaats, in dem sie niedergelassen sind, teilnehmen können, ohne damit das Gemeinschaftsrecht zu verletzen. Die gemeinschaftlichen Regelungen zum öffentlichen Auftragswesen sehen eine Vielzahl von Kriterien für den Ausschluss eines Unternehmens von der Vergabe öffentlicher Aufträge vor. Das gilt beispielsweise für Unternehmen, die sich in Abwicklung befinden, deren Führungskräfte nachweislich gegen Regeln der Geschäftsführung verstoßen haben oder wenn steuer- oder sozialrechtliche Auflagen nicht erfüllt werden. Die Mitgliedstaaten sind nicht befugt, zusätzliche Kriterien anzuwenden. Was die vorgeschlagene Dienstleistungsrichtlinie betrifft, so kann die Kommission bestätigen, dass all diese Dienstleistungen in ihren Anwendungsbereich fallen. Einige Mitgliedstaaten sehen tatsächlich Beschränkungen für multidisziplinäre Aktivitäten vor, die die Niederlassungsfreiheit oder die grenzüberschreitende Erbringung von Dienstleistungen einschränken können. Um diese potenziellen Hemmnisse zu umgehen, sieht Artikel 30 des Richtlinienentwurfs vor, dass Mitgliedstaaten dafür Sorge tragen, dass die Dienstleistungserbringer keinen Anforderungen unterworfen werden, die sie verpflichten, ausschließlich eine bestimmte Tätigkeit auszuüben, oder die die gemeinschaftliche oder partnerschaftliche Ausübung verschiedener Tätigkeiten beschränken. Allerdings gelten Ausnahmeregelungen für Angehörige reglementierter Berufe sowie die Erbringer von Dienstleistungen auf dem Gebiet der Zertifizierung, Akkreditierung, der technischen Überwachung oder des Versuchs- und Prüfwesens. Sofern multidisziplinäre Aktivitäten erlaubt sind, ist von den Mitgliedstaaten dafür Sorge zu tragen, dass Interessenkonflikte und Unvereinbarkeiten zwischen bestimmten Tätigkeiten vermieden werden, dass die Unabhängigkeit und Unparteilichkeit, die bestimmte Tätigkeiten erfordern, gewährleistet sind und dass die Anforderungen der Standesregeln für die verschiedenen Tätigkeiten miteinander vereinbar sind. Diese Anforderungen bedürfen der gegenseitigen Evaluierung durch die Mitgliedstaaten und die Kommission."@de⁹ "Θα ήθελα να πω εξαρχής ότι αυτή η ερώτηση αφορά στην πραγματικότητα τις δημόσιες προμήθειες και όχι την οδηγία για τις υπηρεσίες. Το πρώτο σημείο το οποίο επισημαίνω είναι ότι, όσον αφορά τη συμμετοχή σε διαδικασίες για την ανάθεση συμβάσεων δημοσίων έργων, δεν αντίκειται στο κοινοτικό δίκαιο οι τεχνικές, αρχιτεκτονικές ή κατασκευαστικές εταιρείες που είναι μέτοχοι σε άλλες εταιρείες οι οποίες παρέχουν οπτικοακουστικές υπηρεσίες σε ένα κράτος μέλος, συμπεριλαμβανομένων των κρατών μελών εγκατάστασης, να συμμετέχουν σε τέτοιες διαδικασίες σε οιοδήποτε από τα κράτη μέλη, συμπεριλαμβανομένου του κράτους στο οποίο είναι εγκατεστημένες. Η κοινοτική νομοθεσία περί δημόσιων συμβάσεων προβλέπει έναν εξαντλητικό κατάλογο κριτηρίων για τον αποκλεισμό εταιρειών από τις δημόσιες συμβάσεις. Για παράδειγμα, όταν μία εταιρεία τίθεται υπό εκκαθάριση, όταν τα μέλη του ΔΣ της έχουν αποδεδειγμένα υποπέσει σε παράπτωμα ή όταν δεν έχουν εκπληρωθεί οι φορολογικές ή ασφαλιστικές υποχρεώσεις. Τα κράτη μέλη δεν δύνανται να προσθέσουν κριτήρια σε αυτόν τον κατάλογο. Όσον αφορά την προταθείσα οδηγία για τις υπηρεσίες, η Επιτροπή μπορεί να επιβεβαιώσει ότι όλες αυτές οι υπηρεσίες εμπίπτουν στο πεδίο εφαρμογής της. Πράγματι, ορισμένα κράτη μέλη επιβάλλουν περιορισμούς στις πολλαπλές δραστηριότητες οι οποίοι μπορεί να περιορίσουν είτε την ελευθερία εγκατάστασης είτε τη διασυνοριακή παροχή υπηρεσιών. Προκειμένου να αντιμετωπίσει τα ενδεχόμενα αυτά εμπόδια, το άρθρο 30 της πρότασης ορίζει ότι τα κράτη μέλη οφείλουν να διασφαλίζουν ότι οι παροχείς δεν υπόκεινται σε απαιτήσεις οι οποίες τους υποχρεώνουν να ασκούν αποκλειστικά μία δεδομένη δραστηριότητα, ή κατά τρόπο ο οποίος περιορίζει την ανάπτυξη διαφορετικών δραστηριοτήτων είτε από κοινού ή στο πλαίσιο εταιρικής σχέσης. Ωστόσο, γίνονται εξαιρέσεις για νομοθετικώς κατοχυρωμένα επαγγέλματα και παροχείς πιστοποίησης, διαπίστευσης, τεχνικής εποπτείας, υπηρεσιών δοκιμής και τεχνικού ελέγχου. Για δραστηριότητες όπου επιτρέπονται οι πολλαπλές δραστηριότητες, τα κράτη μέλη οφείλουν να διασφαλίζουν ότι θα εμποδίζονται οι συγκρούσεις συμφερόντων και οι ασυμβατότητες μεταξύ ορισμένων δραστηριοτήτων, ότι η ανεξαρτησία και η αμεροληψία –όταν απαιτείται– θα διασφαλίζεται, και ότι οι κανόνες επαγγελματικής δεοντολογίας διαφορετικών δραστηριοτήτων είναι συμβατές. Αυτές οι απαιτήσεις θα υπόκεινται στην αμοιβαία αξιολόγηση των κρατών μελών και της Επιτροπής."@el¹⁰ ". De entrada he de decir que en realidad se trata de una cuestión relacionada con la contratación pública, y no con la directiva relativa a los servicios. En primer lugar, en lo que respecta a la participación en procedimientos de adjudicación de contratos de obras públicas, no es contrario al Derecho comunitario que empresas técnicas, arquitectónicas y constructoras que sean accionistas de otras empresas proveedoras de servicios audiovisuales en un Estado miembro, incluidos los Estados miembros de establecimiento, participen en dichos procedimientos en cualquiera de los Estados miembros, incluido el Estado miembro en el que están establecidas. En la legislación comunitaria sobre la contratación pública consta una lista exhaustiva de los criterios de exclusión de empresas de los procedimientos de adjudicación de contratos públicos. Algunos ejemplos son: cuando una empresa está en proceso de liquidación, cuando se ha probado que sus gerentes han incurrido en mala conducta o cuando no ha cumplido sus obligaciones fiscales o de cotización a la seguridad social. Los Estados miembros no pueden agregar criterios a esta lista. En relación con la propuesta de directiva relativa a los servicios, la Comisión puede confirmar que todos estos servicios se incluyen dentro de su ámbito de aplicación. Determinados Estados miembros imponen restricciones sobre actividades multidisciplinarias que pueden limitar la libertad de establecimiento o la prestación transfronteriza de servicios. Para hacer frente a este tipo de barreras potenciales, el artículo 30 de la propuesta estipula que los Estados miembros asegurarán que los prestadores de servicios no se vean obligados a ejercer una determinada actividad con carácter exclusivo o que limiten el ejercicio de diferentes actividades conjuntamente o en asociación. No obstante, se establecen una serie de excepciones para las profesiones reguladas y las entidades que prestan servicios de certificación, acreditación, control técnico, prueba o ensayo. En los casos en los que las actividades multidisciplinarias estén autorizadas, los Estados miembros asegurarán la prevención de conflictos de intereses e incompatibilidades entre determinadas actividades, la independencia e imparcialidad cuando sean necesarias y la compatibilidad de los códigos deontológicos y normas de conducta de las distintas actividades. Estos requisitos estarán sujetos a una evaluación mutua por parte de los Estados miembros y la Comisión."@es²⁰ "I wish to say at the outset that this is really a question on public procurement and not on the Services Directive.

Haluan todeta alkuun, että kysymys koskee oikeastaan julkisia hankintoja eikä palveludirektiiviä. Totean ensinnäkin osallistumisesta julkisia hankkeita koskevien julkisten sopimusten tekomenettelyihin, ettei yhteisön lainsäädännössä kielletä teknisten alojen, arkkitehtuurialojen tai rakennusalojen yrityksiä osallistumasta julkisten sopimusten tekomenettelyihin missään jäsenvaltiossa, asettautumisvaltio mukaan luettuna, vaikka ne olisivat osakkaita muissa audiovisuaalipalveluja tarjoavissa yrityksissä jossakin jäsenvaltiossa, asettautumisjäsenvaltio mukaan luettuna. Julkisia hankintoja koskevassa yhteisön lainsäädännössä esitetään tyhjentävä luettelo niistä perusteista, joiden nojalla yritykset eivät saa tehdä julkisia hankintasopimuksia. Eräs esimerkki tällaisesta perusteesta on yrityksen asettaminen selvitystilaan, kun sen johdon on todettu syyllistyneen väärinkäytökseen tai jos yritys ei ole täyttänyt vero- tai sosiaaliturvavelvoitteitaan. Jäsenvaltiot eivät saa lisätä uusia perusteita tähän luetteloon. Komissio voi vahvistaa palveludirektiiviä koskevan ehdotuksen osalta, että kaikki mainitut palvelut kuuluvat sen soveltamisalaan. On totta, että jotkin jäsenvaltiot asettavat monialaisille toimille rajoituksia, joilla voidaan rajoittaa joko sijoittautumisvapautta tai palvelujen rajatylittävää tarjontaa. Tällaisten mahdollisten esteiden poistamiseksi ehdotuksen 30 artiklassa säädetään, että jäsenvaltioiden on varmistettava, ettei palveluntarjoajille aseteta vaatimuksia, jotka velvoittavat harjoittamaan yksinomaan tiettyä toimintaa tai joilla rajoitetaan erilaisten toimintamuotojen harjoittamista yhdessä tai osana yhteistyöhanketta. Poikkeuksia ovat kuitenkin säänneltyjen ammattien harjoittajat, palveluntarjoajat, jotka tarjoavat sertifiointi- ja akkreditointipalveluja, teknisiä tarkastuspalveluja ja testaukseen tai kokeisiin liittyviä palveluja. Kun monialatoiminta sallitaan, jäsenvaltioiden on varmistettava, että estetään eturistiriidat ja tiettyjen toimintojen väliset yhteensopimattomuudet ja että tarvittaessa taataan riippumattomuus ja puolueettomuus sekä ammattietiikkaan liittyvien vaatimusten yhteensopivuus. Näitä vaatimuksia tarkastellaan jäsenvaltioiden ja komission keskinäisessä arviointimenettelyssä."@fi⁷ ". Je souhaite dire dès le départ qu’il s’agit véritablement d’une question de marché public qui ne concerne pas la directive sur les services. Il convient de souligner, en premier lieu, qu’en ce qui concerne la participation à des procédures d’appels d’offres publiques, il n’est pas contraire à la réglementation communautaire que des entreprises techniques, d’architecture ou de construction qui détiennent des parts dans d’autres sociétés fournissant des services audiovisuels dans un État membre, y compris l’État membre où se situe le siège, puissent participer à de telles procédures dans n’importe quel État membre, y compris celui où elles sont établies. Selon la législation communautaire en matière de marché public, il existe une liste exhaustive de critères permettant d’exclure certaines sociétés des marchés publics. C’est le cas, par exemple, lorsqu’une société est en liquidation, que ses dirigeants sont impliqués dans des abus avérés ou lorsqu’elle n’a pas respecté ses obligations fiscales ou sociales. Les États membres ne devraient pas ajouter d’autres critères à cette liste. En ce qui concerne la proposition de directive sur les services, la Commission est en mesure de confirmer que tous ces services entrent dans son champ d’application. Il arrive que certains États membres imposent des restrictions pour les activités pluridisciplinaires susceptibles de restreindre à la fois la liberté d’établissement et la prestation de services transfrontalière. Afin de tenir compte de ce type d’obstacles potentiels, l’article 30 de la proposition stipule que les États membres doivent s’assurer que les fournisseurs ne sont pas soumis à des exigences qui les obligent à exercer exclusivement une activité spécifique ou qui, d’une façon ou d’une autre, limitent l’exercice conjoint ou en partenariat d’activités différentes. Cependant, il existe des exceptions pour les professions réglementées et les prestataires de services de certification, d’accréditation, de contrôle technique et de tests ou d’essais Pour les domaines dans lesquels les activités pluridisciplinaires sont autorisées, les États membres doivent prévenir les conflits d’intérêts et les incompatibilités entre certaines activités, s’assurer que l’indépendance et l’impartialité - quand elles sont requises - sont garanties et que les règles de conduite et de déontologie des différentes activités sont compatibles. Ces exigences feront l’objet d’une évaluation mutuelle par les États membres et la Commission."@fr⁸ "I wish to say at the outset that this is really a question on public procurement and not on the Services Directive.

Vorrei dire innanzi tutto che l’interrogazione in realtà riguarda gli appalti pubblici e non la direttiva sui servizi. Il primo punto da rilevare è che, per quanto riguarda la partecipazione a procedure di aggiudicazione di appalti pubblici, il diritto comunitario non osta a che le imprese di costruzione, gli studi tecnici e di architettura che detengono quote in altre imprese, le quali forniscano servizi audiovisivi in uno Stato membro, compreso quello di stabilimento, partecipino a tali procedure in qualsiasi Stato membro, compreso quello di stabilimento. La legislazione comunitaria in materia di appalti pubblici prevede un elenco esaustivo di criteri di esclusione delle imprese dai contratti per la realizzazione di lavori pubblici. Esempi ne sono i casi in cui un’impresa sia in stato di liquidazione, i suoi dirigenti siano coinvolti in pratiche illecite comprovate, o non siano rispettati gli obblighi fiscali o previdenziali. Gli Stati membri non possono aggiungere altri criteri a questo elenco. Per quanto riguarda la proposta di direttiva sui servizi, la Commissione può confermare che tutti questi servizi rientrano nel suo campo di applicazione. E’ vero che, per le attività pluridisciplinari, alcuni Stati membri impongono restrizioni che potrebbero limitare la libertà di stabilimento o la prestazione transfrontaliera di servizi. In risposta a questo tipo di ostacoli potenziali, l’articolo 30 della proposta prescrive che gli Stati membri provvedono affinché i prestatori non siano soggetti a requisiti che li obblighino ad esercitare esclusivamente una determinata attività o che limitino l’esercizio, congiunto o in associazione, di attività diverse. Tuttavia, sono previste deroghe per le professioni regolamentate e per i prestatori di servizi di certificazione, di accredito, di controllo tecnico, di o di prove. Allorché le attività pluridisciplinari sono autorizzate, gli Stati membri sono tenuti a prevenire i conflitti di interesse e le incompatibilità tra determinate attività, a garantire, se necessario, l’indipendenza e l’imparzialità e a garantire che le norme di deontologia relative alle diverse attività siano compatibili tra loro. Questi requisiti saranno oggetto di valutazione congiunta da parte degli Stati membri e della Commissione."@it¹² "I wish to say at the outset that this is really a question on public procurement and not on the Services Directive.

Ik wil eerst zeggen dat dit eigenlijk een vraag is over overheidsaanbestedingen en niet over de dienstenrichtlijn. Ten eerste moet worden opgemerkt dat het, met betrekking tot de deelname aan procedures voor de gunning van contracten voor openbare werken, niet in strijd is met het gemeenschapsrecht dat technische ondernemingen, architectenbureaus of bouwbedrijven die aandelen hebben in andere bedrijven die audiovisuele diensten aanbieden in een lidstaat, met inbegrip van de lidstaten van vestiging, in een van de lidstaten aan zulke procedures deelnemen, met inbegrip van de lidstaat waarin ze zijn gevestigd. De communautaire wetgeving inzake overheidsaanbestedingen bevat een uitputtende lijst van criteria om bedrijven uit te sluiten van contracten voor overheidsopdrachten, bijvoorbeeld wanneer een bedrijf wordt beëindigd, wanneer de managers van het bedrijf betrokken zijn geweest bij bewezen wanbeheer, of wanneer belastings- of socialezekerheidsverplichtingen niet zijn nagekomen. De lidstaten mogen aan deze lijst geen criteria toevoegen. Met betrekking tot de voorgestelde dienstenrichtlijn kan de Commissie bevestigen dat al deze diensten binnen de werkingssfeer van de richtlijn vallen. Bepaalde lidstaten leggen inderdaad aan multidisciplinaire activiteiten beperkingen op. Deze beperkingen betreffen ofwel de vrijheid van vestiging of de grensoverschrijdende dienstverlening. Met het oog op de aanpak van dit soort potentiële obstakels bepaalt artikel 30 van het voorstel dat de lidstaten erop moeten toezien dat aan de dienstverleners geen eisen gesteld worden waardoor zij gedwongen zouden worden uitsluitend een bepaalde, specifieke activiteit uit te oefenen of waardoor het gezamenlijk of in partnerschap uitoefenen van verschillende activiteiten zou worden beperkt. Er worden evenwel uitzonderingen gemaakt voor beoefenaren van gereglementeerde beroepen en dienstverleners wier diensten bestaan uit certificering, accreditatie, technische controle, tests of proeven. Wanneer multidisciplinaire activiteiten zijn toegestaan, moeten de lidstaten erop toezien dat belangenconflicten en onverenigbaarheden tussen bepaalde activiteiten worden voorkomen, dat de voor deze activiteiten vereiste onafhankelijkheid en onpartijdigheid gewaarborgd zijn, en dat de ethische vereisten voor de verschillende activiteiten onderling verenigbaar zijn, met name wat het beroepsgeheim betreft. Deze eisen worden onderworpen aan wederzijdse beoordeling door de lidstaten en de Commissie."@nl³ "I wish to say at the outset that this is really a question on public procurement and not on the Services Directive.

For activities where multidisciplinary activities are authorised, Member States shall ensure that conflicts of interest and incompatibilities between certain activities are prevented, that independence and impartiality – when required – are secured, and that rules on professional ethics and conduct for different activities are compatible. These requirements will be subject to mutual evaluation by the Member States and the Commission."@pl¹⁶ ". Gostaria de dizer, desde já, que esta é, de facto, uma questão que se prende com os contratos de direito público e não com a Directiva relativa aos Serviços. O primeiro aspecto a registar, no que se refere à participação em processos de adjudicação de contratos de obras públicas, é que não é contrário ao direito comunitário que as empresas técnicas, de arquitectura e de construção, que detenham acções noutras empresas que prestam serviços audiovisuais num Estado-Membro, incluindo nos Estados-Membros de estabelecimento, participem nesses processos em qualquer dos Estados-Membros, inclusivamente no Estado-Membro em que estão estabelecidas. Nos termos da legislação comunitária relativa aos contratos de direito público, existe uma lista exaustiva de critérios de exclusão de empresas dos contratos de direito públicos. Exemplo disso são as situações de insolvência de uma empresa, os casos em que os seus gerentes estiveram envolvidos em situações de comprovada má conduta, ou os casos em que as obrigações em matéria fiscal ou de segurança social não foram cumpridas. Os Estados-Membros não podem acrescentar critérios a essa lista. No que se refere à proposta de directiva relativa aos serviços, a Comissão pode confirmar que todos estes serviços são abrangidos pelo seu âmbito de aplicação. É verdade que determinados Estados-Membros impõem restrições a actividades pluridisciplinares que possam restringir, quer a liberdade de estabelecimento, quer os custos da prestação transfronteiriça de serviços. Para obviar a este tipo de barreiras potenciais, o artigo 30º da proposta estipula que os Estados-Membros assegurem que os prestadores não estejam sujeitos a exigências que os obriguem a exercer exclusivamente uma actividade específica ou que limitem o exercício conjunto ou em parceria de actividades diferentes. No entanto, estão previstas excepções para profissões regulamentadas e para entidades de certificação, acreditação, fiscalização técnica e serviços de teste e ensaio. Relativamente aos casos em que as actividades pluridisciplinares são autorizadas, os Estados-Membros deverão assegurar que sejam evitados conflitos de interesse e incompatibilidades entre certas actividades, que a independência e a imparcialidade – sempre que exigidas – sejam garantidas e que as regras sobre a ética e a conduta profissionais das diferentes actividades sejam compatíveis. Estes requisitos serão sujeitos a uma avaliação recíproca pelos Estados-Membros e pela Comissão."@pt¹⁷ "I wish to say at the outset that this is really a question on public procurement and not on the Services Directive. The first point to note is that, as regards the participation in procedures for the award of public works contracts, it is not contrary to Community law that technical, architectural or construction companies holding shares in other companies which provide audiovisual services in one Member State, including the Member States of establishment, participate in such procedures in any of the Member States, including the one in which they are established. Under Community public procurement law, there is an exhaustive list of criteria to exclude companies from public procurement contracts. Examples of these are when a company is being wound up, when its managers have been involved in proven misconduct, or when tax or social security obligations have not been fulfilled. Member States may not add criteria to this list. As regards the proposed directive on services, the Commission can confirm that all these services fall within its scope. It is the case that certain Member States impose restrictions on multi-disciplinary activities that may restrict either the freedom of establishment or the cross-border provision of services. In order to deal with these kinds of potential barriers, Article 30 of the proposal stipulates that Member States shall ensure that providers are not made subject to requirements which oblige them to exercise a given activity exclusively, or in a manner which restricts the exercise of different activities either jointly or in partnership.

Jag vill redan från början säga att detta egentligen är en fråga om offentlig upphandling och inte om tjänstedirektivet. Först och främst måste man komma i håg att när det gäller deltagande i förfaranden vid tilldelning av offentliga upphandlingskontrakt strider det inte mot gemenskapslagstiftningen att teknik-, arkitekt- och byggföretag som är delaktiga i audiovisuella tjänster i en medlemsstat, däribland medlemsstater där de är etablerade, deltar i sådana förfaranden i någon av medlemsstaterna eller i det land där de är etablerade. I gemenskapens lagstiftning om offentlig upphandling finns en uttömmande förteckning över de kriterier som kan leda till uteslutning av företag från anbudsinfordringar för offentlig upphandling. Sådana kriterier kan t.ex. vara att ett företag läggs ned, att cheferna bevisligen har varit inblandade i brottslig verksamhet eller att man har underlåtit att betala in skatt eller sociala avgifter. Medlemsstaterna kan inte införa nya kriterier i denna förteckning. När det gäller förslaget till tjänstedirektiv kan kommissionen bekräfta att samtliga tjänster ryms inom detta. Vissa medlemsstater inför helt klart begränsningar av den tvärfackliga verksamheten, antingen när det gäller etableringsfriheten eller det gränsöverskridande tillhandahållandet av tjänster. För att komma tillrätta med sådana eventuella hinder anges i artikel 30 i förslaget att medlemsstaterna skall se till att tjänsteleverantörer inte omfattas av krav som tvingar dem att uteslutande ägna sig åt en viss verksamhet eller som begränsar deras möjlighet att ägna sig åt olika typer av verksamhet, gemensamt eller i partnerskap. Undantag görs dock för reglerade yrken samt för organ för certifiering, ackreditering, teknisk kontroll och försöks- och provningsverksamhet. I verksamheter där tvärfackliga aktiviteter tillåts skall medlemsstaterna se till att motverka intressekonflikter och undanröja motsättningar mellan vissa typer av verksamheter. De skall också vid behov verka för oberoende och opartiskhet samt se till att de olika verksamheterna bedrivs i enlighet med yrkesetiska regler. Dessa krav kommer att bli föremål för granskning av medlemsstaterna och kommissionen gemensamt."@sv²¹
