"Mr President, I think the Commission is right to take action in this direction because we, as the European Union, need legal tools to deal with the specific issue of unfair competition from third countries. Of course we shall be examining the Commission proposal in the European Parliament's Committee on Regional Policy, Transport and Tourism and studying the details, but I should like now to ask you three very brief questions. First, have you already got evidence or at least received accusations from various European companies of unfair competition from third countries, America, Switzerland or other countries which we read about in the press from time to time? Secondly, you referred to measures to be taken by the European Union in such cases. What sort of measures are to be taken and how do they stand in relation to the transatlantic agreements already in existence on which the Advocate-General of the European Court has already expressed an opinion? In other words, how do the bilateral agreements stand in relation to the European Commission's multilateral measures? Thirdly, a question which bears no relation to this issue but is highly topical and, if you wish, you can answer us. What is to be done about covering the European airlines' insurance premiums? Cover expires at the end of March. What is the European Commission's position on this?"@en1
