". We voted in favour of all the amendments which seek to strengthen safety both for the staff of airlines, airports and companies based in airports, and for air passengers. However, we rejected the amendments which, on the pretext of maintaining balanced competition, bow to pressure from the lobbies – primarily the airline lobbies – and will do nothing more than delay the implementation of essential measures or will ensure that the measures taken will not meet the legitimate expectations of the public and the staff concerned. In recommending that the authorities finance these measures, the rapporteur is acknowledging the fact that the market, the laws of competition and profit, in other words, the capitalist functioning of the economy extolled by the European institutions, are incompatible with passenger and worker safety. And unfortunately, air transport is by no means an exception in this area."@en1
