lpv:translated text	"Commissioner, I should like to bring three points to your attention. Firstly, electricity and gas are two different products. By lumping them together in one report, an artificial attempt is made to treat them in the same way, and the specific differences between these products are not sufficiently emphasised. Secondly, it is vital for long-term contracts for gas transport to be safeguarded, given the increase in demand for gas, partly as a result of the planned closure of nuclear plants, and given that important investments, for example in piping, which are indispensable to the EU’s gas supply, are necessary. The gas supply is literally at stake here. Thirdly, the legislation put to the vote is diametrically opposed to the wish by industry to cut down on red-tape. Too many new obligations are being imposed. Second reading might provide an opportunity to change this."@en1
